Result of Rump Placement

Following the announcement earlier today regarding valid acceptances under the fully underwritten Rights Issue announced by Greencore Group PLC ("Greencore" or the "Company") on 12 July 2011, the Company now announces that Barclays Bank PLC (acting through its investment banking division Barclays Capital), HSBC Bank Plc and RBS Hoare Govett Limited (together acting as Joint Underwriters) have today procured subscribers for all of the 16,303,248 New Greencore Shares for which valid acceptances were not received, at a price of EUR0.58 per New Greencore Share, a premium of EUR0.12 to the Rights Issue Price of EUR0.46 per New Greencore Share.

The net proceeds from the placing of these New Greencore Shares, after the deduction of the Rights Issue Price of EUR0.46 per New Greencore Share and the expenses of procuring such subscribers (including any applicable brokerage and commissions and amounts in respect of value added tax) will be paid (without interest and rounded down to the next lowest whole number) to those Shareholders whose rights have lapsed in accordance with the terms of the Rights Issue, pro rata to their lapsed provisional allotments, save that amounts of less than EUR5.00 per holding will not be paid to such persons but will be aggregated and retained for the benefit of Greencore.

This announcement should be read in conjunction with the full text of the Prospectus published on 15 July 2011. Terms used in this announcement shall have the same meanings as set out in the Prospectus.
