Dealing disclosure requirements 
 
Under the provisions of Rule 8.3 of the Takeover Code, if any person is, or 
becomes, 'interested' (directly or indirectly) in 1% or more of any class of 
'relevant securities' of Heritage, all 'dealings' in any 'relevant securities' 
of Heritage (including by means of an option in respect of, or a derivative 
referenced to, any such 'relevant securities') must be publicly disclosed by no 
later than 3.30 pm (London time) on the London business day following the date 
of the relevant transaction. This requirement will continue until the date on 
which any offer becomes, or is declared, unconditional as to acceptances, lapses 
or is otherwise withdrawn or on which the 'offer period' otherwise ends. If two 
or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether 
formal or informal, to acquire an 'interest' in 'relevant securities' of 
Heritage, they will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3. 
Under the provisions of Rule 8.1 of the Takeover Code, all 'dealings' in 
'relevant securities' of Heritage by any potential offeror or Heritage, or by 
any of their respective 'associates', must be disclosed by no later than 12.00 
noon (London time) on the London business day following the date of the relevant 
transaction. 
A disclosure table, giving details of the companies in whose 'relevant 
securities' 'dealings' should be disclosed, and the number of such securities in 
issue, can be found on the Takeover Panel's website at 
www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk. 
 
'Interests in securities' arise, in summary, when a person has long economic 
exposure, whether conditional or absolute, to changes in the price of 
securities. In particular, a person will be treated as having an 'interest' by 
virtue of the ownership or control of securities, or by virtue of any option in 
respect of, or derivative referenced to, securities.
