                    Announcement of Substantial Transaction 
 
In accordance with Rule 12 of the AIM Rules, Sherborne Investors (Guernsey) A 
Limited (the "Company") announces that SIGA, LP (together with the Company, the 
"Group") has purchased 26,556,198 ordinary shares in F&C Asset Management plc 
("F&C") (LSE: FCAM) at a total cost of GBP15,587,631, including commissions and 
expenses (the "Acquisition").  The Acquisition was funded by the Group's 
existing cash resources. 
 
The shareholding in F&C was acquired within the price parameters approved by the 
Board of the Company.  The Group may continue to acquire shares in F&C, but if 
it is unable to acquire a large enough shareholding at an acceptable price, the 
Group may elect to dispose of its shareholding in F&C and invest in another 
company.  Further, pursuant to the Group's Investment Policy the Group intends 
that its shareholding in F&C will not reach such a level as to require the Group 
to make a bid for the entire company.
