("CVS" or the "Company")

Exercise of Options and Total Voting Rights

CVS, the UK's leading provider of integrated veterinary services, announces that on 5 February 2015 it approved the issue and allotment of 595 new ordinary shares of 0.2p each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") (the "New Shares") following the exercise of certain Save As You Earn options by a former CVS employee. The New Shares are not covered by the Company's existing block listing arrangements and therefore application has been made for admission of the New Shares to trading on AIM and dealings are expected to commence on 11 February 2015 ("Admission").

In addition, 16,974 Ordinary Shares have today been issued as a result of the exercise of employee share options, under the Company's Block Admission for its 2011/2014 Save as You Earn scheme (the "SAYE Shares").

The New Shares and the SAYE Shares will rank pari passu with all existing Ordinary Shares.

Following Admission of the New Shares and the issue of the SAYE Shares, the Company's total issued share capital will consist of 59,170,366 Ordinary Shares with one voting right per share. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in Treasury. Therefore, following Admission, the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 59,170,366. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
