Result of Elections in relation to Income and Capital Option Alternatives

Following the approval by shareholders of the Return of Cash at the general meeting on 27 June 2014 to return 115 pence per ordinary share, ARMS wishes to provide an update in respect of the results of the elections in relation to the Income Option and Capital Option alternatives. The Return of Cash provided shareholders with two alternatives. The results of the elections are:

· Alternative 1 (Income Option) - 180,559,084 C Shares will be issued (which implies 75% of shareholders have elected, or are deemed to have elected, the Income Option); and

· Alternative 2 (Capital Option) - 60,397,983 B Shares will be issued (which implies 25% of shareholders have elected the Capital Option); 

All C Shares issued in respect of the Income Option will be issued today, become payable on 1 July and automatically be reclassified into Deferred Shares on 1 July. All B Shares in respect of which elections have been received will be issued today, and redeemed by ARMS on 1 July.

 ARMS expects cheques to be despatched or CREST accounts to be credited in respect of proceeds under both the Income Option and the Capital Option on or around 8 July 2014. Further details of the Return of Capital are contained in the circular to shareholders dated 2 June 2014 (the "Circular"). Capitalised terms used in this announcement shall have the same meaning ascribed to them in the Circular.
