issue
In accordance with Rule 2.10 of the City Code on Takeovers and
Mergers (the "Takeover Code"), the Company announces that, as at
close of business on 29 August 2012, the issued share capital of
the Company comprised 405,812,703 ordinary shares of 1 pence each
with voting rights. The Company currently holds no ordinary shares
or deferred shares in treasury. Therefore, the total number of
voting rights in the Company is 405,812,703.
As at 29 August 2012, convertible loan notes in the aggregate
principal amount of GBP18.75 million were outstanding. These
convertible loan notes are convertible into ordinary shares of 1
pence each on the terms of a Convertible Loan Note Instrument dated
27 April 2012, the key terms of which were set out in the
Shareholder Circular published by the Company on 4 April 2012.
As at 29 August 2012, the Company had issued 1,128,743 warrants
to subscribe for ordinary shares at a subscription price of 309
pence per ordinary share and 437,480 warrants to subscribe for
ordinary shares, the key terms of which were set out in the
Shareholder Circular published by the Company on 4 April 2012.
The International Securities Identification Number ("ISIN") for
the ordinary shares is GB00B646JG43. The convertible loan notes and
the warrants are not listed or traded and therefore do not have an
ISIN.

Under Rule 8.3(b) of the Code, any person who is, or becomes,
interested in 1% or more of any class of relevant securities of JJB
or of any paper offeror must make a Dealing Disclosure if the
person deals in any relevant securities of JJB or of any paper
offeror. A Dealing Disclosure must contain details of the dealing
concerned and of the person's interests and short positions in, and
rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) JJB

of the relevant dealing.
If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or
understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire or control an
interest in relevant securities of JJB or a paper offeror, they
will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule
8.3.
Opening Position Disclosures must also be made by JJB and by any
offeror and Dealing Disclosures must also be made by JJB, by any
offeror and by any persons acting in concert with any of them (see
