("GLI" or the "Company")

Shares into Treasury

The Company wishes to announce that on 16 May 2016, it received 214,417 Ordinary Shares ("Shares"), which it has taken into treasury for £nil consideration. The Shares were issued to the former CEO under the Company's employee share scheme and were subject to clawback provisions in the event that the Company failed to meet specified performance criteria.

The Company's issued ordinary share capital consists of 230,205,614 Ordinary Shares. The Company holds 214,417 Ordinary Shares in treasury. The total number of Ordinary Shares in issue excluding Ordinary Shares held in treasury is therefore 229,991,197, which is also the total number of voting rights in the Company and the figure that should be used by shareholders as the denominator in their calculations to determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
