    Dealing Disclosure Requirements

    Under the provisions of Rule 8.3 of the Takeover Code (the "Code"), if any person is, or becomes, "interested" (directly or indirectly)
in 1% or more of any class of "relevant securities" of White Young Green plc, all "dealings" in any "relevant securities" of that company
(including by means of an option in respect of, or a derivative referenced to, any such "relevant securities") must be publicly disclosed by
no later than 3.30 pm (London time) on the London business day following the date of the relevant transaction. This requirement will
continue until the date on which the offer becomes, or is declared, unconditional as to acceptances, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn or on
which the "offer period" otherwise ends. 

    If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire an "interest" in
"relevant securities" of White Young Green plc, they will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.

    Under the provisions of Rule 8.1 of the Code, all "dealings" in "relevant securities" of White Young Green plc by White Young Green plc,
or by any of their respective "associates", must be disclosed by no later than 12.00 noon (London time) on the London business day following
the date of the relevant transaction.

    A disclosure table, giving details of the companies in whose "relevant securities" "dealings" should be disclosed, and the number of
such securities in issue, can be found on the Takeover Panel's website at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk.

    "Interests in securities" arise, in summary, when a person has long economic exposure, whether conditional or absolute, to changes in
the price of securities. In particular, a person will be treated as having an "interest" by virtue of the ownership or control of
securities, or by virtue of any option in respect of, or derivative referenced to, securities.

    Terms in quotation marks are defined in the Code, which can also be found on the Panel's website. If you are in any doubt as to whether
or not you are required to disclose a "dealing" under Rule 8, you should consult the Panel.
