Circ re. Change of Auditor

Michael Page International plc

Change of Auditor

Michael Page International plc ("the Company") announces that the Board has appointed Ernst & Young ("EY") as auditors for the Company.

With Deloitte LLP having been the Group auditors since 1998, the Board, on the recommendation of the Audit Committee, decided that it was appropriate to put the Company audit out to competitive tender.

Following formal proposals and presentations from three firms, EY was successful in this process. Deloitte LLP has consequently resigned as auditor of the Company and as required by section 519(3) of the Companies Act 2006, has deposited with the Company a statement of the circumstances ("Statement") connected with its resignation.

Deloitte LLP has confirmed to the Company that there are no circumstances in connection with its resignation which it considers need to be brought to the attention of the Company's shareholders.

A copy of this Statement, along with the accompanying circular to shareholders, has been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at:
