26 August 2010
This announcement replaces the announcement released under RNS Number 6034R at
10:48 on Wednesday 25 August.
The valid acceptances of the Offer received is 495,284 and not 739,025, as
previously stated. The discrepancy relates to the fact that the 739,025 number
included market purchases conducted by Deepdale which have been previously
announced.
In all other respects the announcement remains unchanged.
