All administrative enquiries relating to shares should, in the first instance, be directed to the Company’s registrar (quoting reference number 1235) and clearly state the registered

shareholder’s name and address. Please write to The Rank Group Plc Registrar, Equiniti Limited, Aspect House, Spencer Road, Lancing, West Sussex BN99 6DA (Tel: from the

UK 0871 384 2098* and from outside the UK +44 121 415 7047). There is a text phone available on 0871 384 2255* for

shareholders with hearing difficulties.

(*Calls cost 8p per minute plus network extras.) Shareview

The Shareview portfolio service from the Company’s registrar gives shareholders more control of their Rank shares and other investments, including:

• direct access to data held for them on the share register including recent share movements and dividend details; • a recent valuation of their portfolio; and

• a range of information and practical help for shareholders including how they can elect to receive communications electronically.

It is easy and free to set up a portfolio – shareholders will just need the shareholder reference printed on their proxy form or dividend stationery. Please visit the following website for more details: www.shareview.co.uk.

Payment of dividends

The Company is no longer operating a dividend re-investment plan. Shareholders may find it more convenient to make arrangements to have dividends paid directly to their bank account. The advantages of this are that the dividend is credited to a shareholder’s bank account on the payment date, there is no need to present cheques for payment and there is no risk of cheques being lost in the post.

To set up a dividend mandate or to change an existing mandate please contact Equiniti Limited, our registrar, whose contact details are above. Alternatively, shareholders who use Equiniti’s Shareview can log on to www.shareview.co.uk and follow the online instructions.

Shareholder information

A wide range of information for shareholders and investors is available in the Investors area of the Rank Group website: www.rank.com.

Frequently asked questions

We have a shareholder ‘frequently asked questions’ section on our website which provides answers to many questions that shareholders have: www.rank.com/investors/shareholder_ faqs.jsp

Capital gains tax

For the purpose of calculating UK capital gains tax on a disposal of ordinary shares in the Company held since 31 March 1982 (including shares held in the predecessor company, The Rank Organisation Plc), the price of the Company’s ordinary shares at that date was 190p per share. This price should be adjusted for the effects of the rights issue in January 1990, the enhanced share alternative in July 1993, the sub-division and consolidation of shares in March 1994, the enhanced scrip dividend in March 1998, and the 18 for 25 sub-division and share consolidation (aligned with the 65p special dividend payment) which took place in March 2007. More information regarding these adjustments is available on the www.rank.comwebsite.

Shareholder security

We are aware that some of our shareholders have received unsolicited telephone calls concerning their Rank shares. These communications tend to be from overseas-based ‘brokers’ who offer a premium price for your Rank shares but ask you to make an upfront payment, typically in the form of an insurance bond. We recommend that before paying any money you:

• obtain the name of the person and firm contacting you; • check the FCA Register at www.fca.org.uk/register/ to

ensure they are authorised;

• use the details on the FCA Register to contact the firm; • call the FCA Consumer Helpline on 0800 111 6768 if there

are no contact details on the FCA Register or you are told they are out of date; and

• search the FCA’s list of unauthorised firms and individuals to avoid doing business with: www.fca.org.uk/consumers/ protect-yourself/unauthorised-firms/unauthorised-firms- to-avoid

If you use an unauthorised firm to buy or sell shares or other investments, you will not have access to the Financial Ombudsman Service or Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) if things go wrong.
