Proxy Solicitation & Information Statement • Jun 29, 2011

Notes

• 1. A member may appoint another person as his proxy to exercise all or any of his rights to attend, speak and vote at the meeting. A member may appoint more than one proxy in relation to the meeting provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise rights attached to different shares held by that member. To appoint more than one proxy, you may photocopy this form. Please indicate the proxy holder's name and the number of shares in relation to which he or she is authorised to act as your proxy (which, in aggregate with all other proxy appointments, should not exceed the number of shares held by you). Please also indicate if the proxy instruction is one of multiple instructions being given.
• 1. A proxy does not need to be a member of the Company. To appoint as a proxy a person other than the Chairman of the meeting, please insert their full name in the space provided on this form. If this proxy form is signed and returned with no name provided, the Chairman of the meeting will be deemed to be your proxy. Where someone (other than the Chairman) is appointed as proxy, the appointing member is responsible for ensuring that the proxy attends the meeting and is aware of that member's voting intentions.
• 1. To appoint a proxy, this form must be completed and received by post or (during normal business hours only) by hand (together with any authority under which it is signed or a certified copy of such authority) at Victoria Carpets Limited, Worcester Road, Kidderminster, DY10 1JR no later than 2:30 p.m. on Friday, 29 July 2011.
• 1. In the case of a member which is a company, this proxy form must be executed under its common seal or signed on its behalf by an officer or attorney of the company duly authorised in that behalf.
• 1. In the case of joint holders, the vote of the first named on the Register of Members who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, will be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders. The signature of any one holder will be sufficient.
• 1. The completion and return of this form will not preclude a member from attending the meeting and voting in person.
• 1. The Company, pursuant to Regulation 41 of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001, specifies that only those members registered in the Register of Members of the Company as at 6:00 p.m. on Friday, 29 July 2011 (or in the event of an adjournment, 6.00 p.m. on the date which is two days before the time of the adjourned meeting), shall be entitled to attend or vote at the meeting in respect of the number of shares registered in their names at that time. Changes in the entries in the Register of Members after the relevant deadline shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend or vote at the meeting.
• 1. The "Vote withheld" option is provided to enable you to abstain on any particular resolution. However, it should be noted that a "Vote withheld" is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes "For" and "Against" a resolution.
• 1. If you submit more than one valid proxy appointment in respect of the same shares, the appointment received last before the latest time for the receipt of proxies will take precedence.
