Dealing Disclosure Requirements

Under the provisions of Rule 8.3 of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the
"Code"), if any person is, or becomes, "interested" (directly or indirectly) in
1 per cent. or more of any class of "relevant securities" of NSB, all "dealings"
in any "relevant securities" of that company (including by means of an option in
respect of, or a derivative referenced to, any such "relevant securities") must
be publicly disclosed by no later than 3.30 pm (London time) on the London
business day following the date of the relevant transaction. This requirement
will continue until the date on which the offer becomes, or is declared,
unconditional as to acceptances, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn or on which
the "offer period" otherwise ends. If two or more persons act together pursuant
to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire an
"interest" in "relevant securities" of NSB, they will be deemed to be a single
person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.

Under the provisions of Rule 8.1 of the Code, all "dealings" in "relevant
securities" of NSB by NSB or by any of their respective "associates", must be
disclosed by no later than 12.00 noon (London time) on the London business day
following the date of the relevant transaction. A disclosure table, giving
details of the companies in whose "relevant securities" "dealings" should be
disclosed, and the number of such securities in issue, can be found on the
Takeover Panel's website at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk .

"Interests in securities" arise, in summary, when a person has long economic
exposure, whether conditional or absolute, to changes in the price of
securities. In particular, a person will be treated as having an "interest" by
virtue of the ownership or control of securities, or by virtue of any option in
respect of, or derivative referenced to, securities.

Terms in quotation marks are defined in the Code, which can also be found on the
Panel's website. If you are in any doubt as to whether or not you are required
to disclose a "dealing" under Rule 8, you should consult the Panel.

Rule 2.10 Requirement

In accordance with Rule 2.10 of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers, NSB
confirms that it currently has 380,918,199 in issue ordinary shares of 2 pence
each. The International Securities Identification Number for the ordinary shares
is GB0001570695.

In addition, NSB confirms that it currently has 34,508,249 special voting shares
of 0.01 pence in issue.  The special voting shares hold equivalent voting rights
to NSB ordinary shares.
