<p align="left"><font size="2" face="serif">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
    connection with its change in fiscal year from September 30 to December 31,
    InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (&#8220;IHG&#8221;), undertook to file
    an Annual and Transition Report on Form 20-F for the period ended December
    31, 2003 (&#8220;20-F&#8221;) by March 31, 2004, which would have been the
    deadline for filing the Annual Report on Form 20-F had IHG retained the September
    30 year end. IHG has been unable, without unreasonable effort or expense,
    to complete its 20-F by March 31, 2004, which is three months after the end
    of its financial year, because of the need to prepare its Annual Report,
    as a company listed on the London Stock Exchange, including its audited financial
    statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
    the United Kingdom, as well as to prepare the 20-F to satisfy requirements
    thereof, including requirements applicable for the first time in respect
    of this report, to provide reconciliation of certain financial statement
    items in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the
    United States, and to provide financial information in the audited financial
    statements relating to Six Continents PLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of IHG,
    which may in the future guarantee certain debt to be issued by IHG. IHG&#8217;s
    UK Annual Report, which includes a reconciliation of certain financial statement
    items to U.S. GAAP for 2003 and 2002, was published on March 30, 2004. IHG
    plans to file its 20-F as soon as possible and, in any event, within fifteen
    days of March 31, 2004.</font></p>

      reductions
      in IHG&#8217;s
      hotels segment and by a strong performance from the soft drinks segment,
