SCHEMES OF ARRANGEMENT COME INTO EFFECT

6 February 2007

ANNOUNCEMENT TO SHAREHOLDERS AND NOTEHOLDERS

Shareholder and Noteholder Schemes of Arrangement Come into Effect

LUXFER HOLDINGS PLC (the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the scheme of arrangement between the Company and the ultimate beneficial holders of its 10.125% Senior Notes due May 2009 (the “Noteholders”) and the scheme of arrangement between the Company and certain of its shareholders have both come into effect on 6 February 2007, following sanction of both schemes by the High Court of Justice, England and Wales.

The Group has in recent years been burdened with high levels of debt against a backdrop of volatile raw material costs and exchange rates. In response to these pressures, the Group has been implementing cost saving programmes and profit improvement plans to drive both sales and margin growth. The reorganisation of the Company’s capital structure through these schemes of arrangement is intended to improve the Group’s financial condition through a significant reduction of the Company’s debt and interest expense.

Other than the Noteholders, no other creditors are affected by the reorganisation.

Brian Purves, Chief Executive, commented: “The reorganisation provides a more solid and stable capital structure for the Group. The substantial reduction in debt will increase our liquidity and enhance our ability to develop the business through investment.”
