Change of EAC's Financial Calendar 2014 - Announcement no. 2/2014

As announced today in Announcement no. 1/2014, EAC has divested its wholly owned Venezuelan food business Plumrose Latinoamericana C.A. ("Plumrose"). By the sale, the presentation of Plumrose in EAC's annual report for 2013 is changed from a fully consolidated subsidiary to an asset held for sale. To have sufficient time to incorporate this significant change in the annual report, EAC postpones the publication of the annual report for 2013 from 27 February 2014 to 5 March 2014.

Yours sincerely,

The East Asiatic Company Ltd. A/S
