Change of Advisors - Auditor and Broker
Auditor
PricewaterhouseCoopers have notified the Company that they will
not seek re-appointment for the year ending 30 September 2017
because under the more restrictive independence requirements of the
FRC's Revised Ethical Standards 2016, the non-audit services which
they propose to provide to the Standard Life Group would render
them non-independent. Following a formal tender process, the Board
is pleased to recommend the appointment of KPMG LLP ("KPMG") as its
new auditor, to carry out the Company's audit for the year ending
30 September 2017.
In accordance with section 519 of the Companies Act 2006 the
outgoing auditor, ("PwC") has deposited a statement with the
Company of the circumstances connected with them ceasing to hold
office as auditor. A copy of the Statement is included with the
Notice of Annual General Meeting ("AGM") which will be sent to
every person who is entitled to receive a copy of the Company's
Annual Report and Financial Statement and can also be downloaded
Further details of this can be found in the Notice of AGM which can
be downloaded from the Company's website at:

KPMG will stand for appointment at the Company's AGM on 24
January 2017.
