Supreme Court awards costs to Fyffes

On 27 July 2007, five Judges of the Irish Supreme Court unanimously decided in

Fyffes' favour in its legal action against DCC plc, S&L Investments Limited, Mr

Jim Flavin and Lotus Green Limited ('the defendants') in connection with the

sale of 31,169,493 Fyffes shares in February 2000. Following on from this

decision, the Supreme Court today issued an order for all costs in both the High

Court and Supreme Court actions in favour of Fyffes.

The Supreme Court today also referred the case back to the High Court to

determine the amount due to Fyffes under Part V of the Companies Act, 1990

arising from the unlawful dealing by the defendants. The High Court is expected

to determine this matter in 2008.
