  General Meeting approves conversion rights for US$ 70m guaranteed convertible 
                                      bond 
 
The Company is pleased to announce that at the General Meeting held today, the 
Resolution was passed to authorise the grant of the conversion rights under the 
US$ 70,000,000 guaranteed convertible bonds issued by LAH Jersey Limited the 
Company's wholly owned direct subsidiary. 
 
 
David Lenigas, Lonrho Executive Chairman stated : 
 
I am delighted that there was overwhelming support from shareholders for the 
Company entering into the US$70 million guaranteed convertible bond. This is a 
significant step for the growth of the Company. The proceeds of the bond will be 
utilised to restructure some existing expensive debt in Africa and fast track 
the expansion of Lonrho's agricultural division's ability to produce, source and 
deliver fish, fruit and vegetables from Southern Africa to the exciting USA 
retail sector.
