Form 8 Enclosure



Cantor Fitzgerald Europe is the beneficialowner of 6,411,817 Mayflower
Corporation PLC ordinary shares.  6,135,917 of these shares are held to hedge
Contract for Differences ("CFD") positions for clients and 259,000 of these
shares are held to hedge Spreadbet positions between Cantor Index Limited and
other clients.



A Long CFD is a product where the client to whom the product is sold is taking a
long economic interest in the underlying share price such that the client can
realise a gain if the price of the underlying securities rises above the
reference price.



A Spread Bet is a product where the client to whom the product is sold can
realise a gain or a loss depending on whether the price of the underlying
security increases above or falls below the reference price. The client's
Spread bet position is described as his "stake".  A "stake" is expressed in
pounds (sterling) per "point" and a "point" is the price in pence of the
underlying shares.  A client with a "stake" of #100 per point will make a gain
of #100for every penny increase in the underlying shares and he/she has an
exposure equivalent to 10,000 shares.



A purchaser of a Spread Bet or a CFD contract will realise a gain if the price
of the underlying security goes up. A seller of a Spread Bet or a CFD contract
will realise a gain if the price of the underlying security goes down.



There are no written or oral agreements between Cantor Fitzgerald Europe and any
clients concerning the control of voting rights in relation to the underlying
shares used to hedge the CFDs and Spreadbets.



The CFD contracts are open-ended and there is no rollover into new contracts
