New Corporate Identity

Slough Estates also announces a fresh new corporate identity, with a strong bold and confident new look and the natural evolution of its name to SEGRO. SEGRO flows from Slough Estates Group and is pronounced see-grow. The new identity reflects how the company has been developing in recent years, particularly its expansion in Continental Europe and its recently established status as one of the world’s largest Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”)

Ian Coull, Chief Executive said

“As SEGRO builds on the success of its now tightly focused property model, and expands its activities across Continental Europe, we are determined to further develop our position as the leading provider of flexible business space in Europe. As we have made significant changes to our business, we have attracted new customers and investors, it’s appropriate that our identity builds on this too. The name SEGRO reinforces the direction and the positive momentum of the company.”

SEGRO
- specialist focus and expertise
- consistent world class delivery
- flexible in the type of business space we provide
- flexible “can-do” approach to client needs
- international business skills with a local market focus
- managing today’s space for tomorrow’s environment

The change to our identity and our new SEGRO trading name take effect immediately, the equivalent change to our registered company name (the “plc” name) requires shareholder approval and a resolution to that effect will be put to the company’s Annual General Meeting on 22 May 2007.

The Company was advised on its new identity by London brand consultancy appetite.
