FW Thorpe announces that it was notified that on 15 March certain Directors of the Company exercised share options ("Share Options") over 35,000 ordinary shares of 1 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") at a price of 124 pence per Ordinary Share. To satisfy the exercise of the Share Options 35,000 existing Ordinary Shares have been transferred out of treasury.

Details of those Directors who participated in the exercise of Share Options are as follows:
