                    INDICATIVE RESULTS OF CASH TENDER OFFER 
John Lewis plc (the Offeror) announces the indicative results of its invitation 
to the holders of its outstanding GBP300,000,000 6.375 per cent. Bonds due 2012 
(ISIN: XS0127953353) (the Bonds) to tender their Bonds for purchase by the 
Offeror for cash (the Offer). 
The Offer was made on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the 
tender offer memorandum dated 5 July 2010 (the Tender Offer Memorandum) prepared 
by the Offeror in connection with the Offer.  Capitalised terms used but not 
otherwise defined in this announcement shall have the meaning given to them in 
the Tender Offer Memorandum. 
As at the Expiration Deadline of 5.00 p.m. (London time) on Wednesday, 14 July 
2010, the Offeror had received valid tenders for approximately GBP218,292,000 in 
aggregate nominal amount of Bonds, of which GBP157,996,000 in aggregate nominal 
amount of Bonds were tendered pursuant to valid Tender and New Issue Allocation 
Instructions.  The Offeror has decided to increase the Maximum Acceptance Amount 
to GBP157,996,000 and accordingly it will accept (subject to satisfaction of the 
New Financing Condition described below) all Bonds tendered pursuant to valid 
Tender and New Issue Allocation Instructions.  There will not be any pro rata

Instructions.  No Bonds tendered pursuant to Tender Only Instructions will be

Purchase Price, and (ii) the final aggregate nominal amount of Bonds that will 
remain outstanding after the Tender Offer Settlement Date (subject to 
satisfaction of the New Financing Condition). 
The Tender Offer Settlement Date and the New Issue Settlement Date are both 
expected to be on Wednesday, 21 July 2010.  Purchases of Bonds under the Offer 
are conditional upon satisfaction of the New Financing Condition, being the 
successful completion (in the determination of the Offeror) of the issue of the 
New Bonds, as further described in the Tender Offer Memorandum.
