          OFFER (THE "OFFER") FOR CHIEFTAIN GROUP PLC ("CHIEFTAIN")

 Acceptance levels: Offer unconditional as to acceptances


 By 1.00 p.m. London time on 21 October 2008, the first closing date of the
 Offer, Redhall had received valid acceptances of the Offer, in respect of
 ordinary shares of 5p each in the capital of Chieftain ("Chieftain Shares"),

 Redhall Board announces that it has waived the requirements to receive
 acceptances in respect of not less than 90 per cent. in nominal value of the
 Chieftain Shares to which the Offer relates and that represent not less than
 90 per cent. of the voting rights carried by the Chieftain Shares to which
 the Offer relates and has decided to declare the Offer unconditional as to
 acceptances having received acceptances in respect of Chieftain Shares
 carrying, in aggregate, more than 50 per cent. of the voting rights
  
 Prior to the commencement of the Offer Period on 19 September 2008, save as
 disclosed in the offer document dated 30 September 2008 (the "Offer
 Document"), neither Redhall nor any person acting or deemed to be acting in
 concert with it owned any Chieftain Shares (or rights over such shares) nor
 since that date (other than as disclosed above) has Redhall or any person
 acting in concert with it acquired or agreed to acquire any Chieftain Shares
 (or rights over such shares (including short positions under a derivative
 referenced to Chieftain Shares)) or borrowed or lent (save for any borrowed
 shares which have been either on-lent or sold) any Chieftain Shares.
