GLASGOW INVESTMENT MANAGERS PENSION PLAN (THE PLAN)

PURSUANT TO SECTION 27 OF THE TRUSTEE ACT 1925

The Plan was established with effect from 1 October 2000. The Plan is being wound up.

The Trustees have corresponded by post with all known members of the Plan. Accordingly, it is of vital importance that any person having a claim against or an interest in the Plan, including any person who may have been employed by the company or an associated employer on a part time basis and who considers that his or her exclusion from the Plan may have constituted indirect discrimination, who has not received correspondence from us should make themselves known to the Trustees of the Plan.

Particulars of any claim should be sent in writing to the under mentioned contact on or before 19 March 2007, after which date the Trustees will proceed with the winding-up of the scheme and distribution of the scheme assets having regard only to the claims and interests of which it has had notice.

Notification is not required from persons who are currently in receipt of a pension from the Plan, or who have received correspondence relating to this scheme from the Trustees or their advisors Aon Consulting Limited.
