Pochin's PLC 25 July 2005 POCHIN'S PLC 25 July 2005 Detail: Shareholdings: Pochin's Plc ("the Company") The Company was notified on 21 July 2005 by two of its directors, James Nicholson and Sylvia Nicholson, that they had incorrectly disclosed the extent of their shareholding interests arising out of the fact that one of the Company's Substantial Shareholders with which they are connected, Kettley International Limited ("Kettley"), is interested in an additional 9,000 Ordinary Shares of 25p each in the capital of the Company. Accordingly, Kettley is interested in 4,878,499 Ordinary Shares of 25p each in the capital of the Company (23.5% of the Company's issued share capital). The total number of shares owned by Kettley as disclosed in the Company's last set of audited accounts to 31 May 2004, namely 4,869,499 Ordinary Shares (23.4% of the Company's issued share capital), was accordingly incorrect. As a consequence, note 2 of the Substantial Shareholders section of the Company's Financial Statements for the year ended 31 May 2004 incorrectly states the extent of the interests in Kettley of two of the Company's directors Sylvia Nicholson and James Nicholson. Individually, James Nicholson is accordingly interested in 6,923,764 Ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company and Sylvia Nicholson is interested in 7,301,579 Ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company, an increase in each case of 9,000 Ordinary Shares above the figures previously disclosed.
