Future notifications

If you wish to register to receive future notifications issued by Tate & Lyle PLC by email rather than by post, please visit our registrars' website, www.shareview.co.uk, and complete the registration form to sign up to Shareview.

Shareview enables you to view information regarding your holding and to change your address and bank details online. You can also request that dividends are paid directly into your bank or building society account. This is more secure than receiving your dividend by cheque which could arrive late or be lost in the post. In addition, the dividend is paid into your account on the payment date which means you do not have to wait for a cheque to clear before the funds are available.

If you have any questions concerning Shareview or wish to receive a hard copy of the Annual Report 2014 or Notice of Annual General Meeting 2014, please call Equiniti on 0871 384 2063* or +44(0)121 415 0235 (for calls from outside the UK).

Yours sincerely

Lucie Gilbert

Company Secretary
