TEMPORARY RESTRUCTURING OF THE SOVEREIGN BOARD OF DIRECTORS ("BOARD")           
Sovereign shareholders are referred to the announcement published by the Company
on 30 August 2011 regarding the changes to the Board. As a result of Mr Mike    
Davis having stepped down as Chief Executive Officer, the Board has resolved to 
undergo a temporary restructuring ("Restructuring") with immediate effect.      
In terms of the Restructuring Mr Charles Davies, currently Sovereign`s Non-     
executive Chairman, will assume the role of Executive Chairman and Mr Litha     
Nyhonyha, currently a Non-executive Director, will be appointed as the Board`s  
Lead Independent Director until such time as a new Chief Executive Officer is   
appointed.                                                                      
The Restructuring has been performed so as to allow Mr Davies to further assist 
Sovereign`s executive management team whilst ensuring that the principles of    
good corporate governance are maintained.
