IHG Block Listing Application

In light of the proposed scheme of arrangement between InterContinental Hotels Group PLC ("IHG") and its shareholders under section 425 of the Companies Act 1985, the outstanding block listings of IHG are proposed to be cancelled on 27 June 2005.

Application has been made to the UK Listing Authority and the London Stock Exchange for 1,892,720 ordinary shares of New InterContinental Hotels Group PLC ("New IHG") to be block listed. The block listing consists of 122,980 ordinary shares that may be issued under the New InterContinental Hotels Group Executive Share Option Plan and 1,769,740 ordinary shares that may be issued under the New InterContinental Hotels Group Sharesave Plan.

New IHG is expected to be renamed as InterContinental Hotels Group PLC with effect from 27 June 2005. The names of the two block listing schemes are also expected to change to reflect the change of company name.

Citigroup Global Markets Limited is acting for IHG and New IHG and no-one else in connection with the transaction and will not be responsible to anyone other than IHG or New IHG for providing the protections afforded to its clients or for providing advice in relation to the transaction or the contents of this announcement.

This announcement does not constitute an offer or invitation to purchase securities.

Securities may not be offered or sold in the United States unless they are registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") or exempt from such registration. The new ordinary shares have not been, nor will be, and are not required to be registered with the US Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Section 3(a)(10) thereof. US shareholders who are affiliates of IHG or New IHG before implementation of the Scheme or are affiliates of New IHG after implementation of the Scheme will be subject to timing, manner of sale and volume restrictions on the sale of new ordinary shares received in connection with the Scheme under Rule 145(d) of the Securities Act.
