CALCULATION OF FILING FEE
| Transaction Valuation(1) $1,078,260,723 |
Amount of Filing Fee(1)(2) $115,374 |
| (1) | Calculated solely for purposes of determining the filing fee in respect of B Shares (as defined below) to be held in the United States in accordance with Section 13(e)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 0-11(b) thereunder. This calculation assumes that holders of ordinary shares, par value 50 pence each (the “Ordinary Shares”) in the United States own directly or indirectly 27.7% of the 1,871,234,589 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding as of March 30, 2006 (including Ordinary Shares represented by American Depositary Shares) and that one in every three Ordinary Shares are converted into non-cumulative preference shares, par value 50 pence each (the “B Shares”). Transaction Valuation is based upon a value of £3.60 cash per share for the B Shares expected to be held in the United States on the basis described in the preceding sentence and on an exchange rate of $1.7356 per £1.00, which was the noon buying rate in New York certified by the New York Federal Reserve Bank for customs purposes on March 29, 2006. |
