Historic Data on New Business Reporting

HISTORIC DATA ON NEW BUSINESS REPORTING

"As indicated at the time of the results announcement in February, we will be revising the format of our new business reporting in order to more closely align the reported new business with shareholder value added.

As of the first quarter Interim Management Statement, which will be published on 29 April 2014, the reported new business figures will represent only our own manufactured business and no longer include third party business, which will be disclosed as supplementary information.

Shareholders can find historic data on this new basis of reporting via our Investor Relations website at http://www1.sjp.co.uk/investor-relations/results-archive/2014."
