Acquisition Documents

This part of the website contains certain documents in connection with the acquisition by means of a scheme of arrangement (the “Scheme”) by Barratt Developments PLC (“Barratt”) of the entire issued and to be issued share capital of Wilson Bowden plc (“Wilson Bowden”) (the “Acquisition”). Other capitalised expressions used below have the meanings given to them in the documents contained in this area of the website.

The documents in, and contents of, this area of the website may not be treated as an invitation to subscribe for New Barratt Shares to be issued in connection with the Acquisition or for the sale of any securities and/or to make elections under the Scheme by any person resident or located in Australia, Canada or Japan or any other jurisdiction where accessing any of the documents in this area of the website or issuing New Barratt Shares or Loan Notes would violate the law of that jurisdiction (a “Restricted Jurisdiction”). Accordingly, only those persons who are not resident or located in a Restricted Jurisdiction may access this part of the website.

The New Barratt Shares will not be, and not required to be, registered with the Securities Exchange Commission under the Securities Act, in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(10) of that act. NEITHER THE SEC NOR ANY OTHER US FEDERAL OR STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION OR REGULATORY AUTHORITY HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THE NEW BARRATT SHARES OR PASSED AN OPINION ON THE ADEQUACY OF THE PROSPECTUS RELATING TO THE NEW BARRATT SHARES. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE IN THE UNITED STATES. Wilson Bowden Shareholders (whether or not US persons) who are “affiliates” (within the meaning of the Securities Act) of Wilson Bowden or Barratt prior to, or of Barratt after, the Effective Date, will be subject to timing, manner of sale and volume restrictions on the sale of New Barratt Shares received in connection with the Scheme under Rule 145(d) of the Securities Act. The Loan notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities act and will not be offered in the United States.

The New Barratt Shares and the Loan Notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the applicable securities laws of any Restricted Jurisdiction. Accordingly, the New Barratt Shares may not be offered, sold, delivered or transferred, directly or indirectly, in or into any Restricted Jurisdiction or to or for the account or benefit of any national, resident or citizen of any Restricted Jurisdiction.

If you are in any doubt about the contents of this area of the website or the action you should take, you are recommended to seek advice from your stockbroker, bank, solicitor, accountant, fund manager or other appropriate independent financial adviser duly authorised under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 if you are resident in the united Kingdom or, if you are located outside the United Kingdom, from an appropriately authorised independent financial adviser.

I confirm that I have read and understood the above and that I am not resident or located in any Restricted Jurisdiction.
