NOTIFICATIONS UNDER SECTIONS 198 TO 202 -- UK COMPANIES ACT

1. Company in which shares are held:   AEGIS GROUP PLC

2. Notifiable Interest:    ORDINARY SHARES


           Fidelity International Limited (FIL)
           P.O. BOX HM 670
           Hamilton HMCX, Bermuda

           Parent holding company for various direct and indirect subsidiaries,

           Management (FPM), investment managers for various non-US investment 
           companies and institutional clients. (See Schedule A for listing of 
           Registered Shareholders and their holdings).

3.     The notifiable interests also comprise the notifiable interest of

           Mr Edward C Johnson 3d
           82 Devonshire Street
           Boston, MA 02109

           A principal shareholder Fidelity International Limited.

4.     The notifiable interests include interest held on behalf of authorized
       unit trust schemes in the U.K. notwithstanding the exemption from 
       reporting pursuant to Section 209 (1) (h) of the Companies Act 1985.

5.     These notifications of disclosable interests constitute separate
       notifications of interest in the shares and are combined solely for 
       the purposes of clarity and efficiency. Nothing herein should be taken to 
       indicate that  Fidelity International Limited and its direct and indirect 
       subsidiaries or Mr Edward C Johnson 3d act as a group or in concert in 
       respect of the disclosed interests, or that they are required to submit 
       these notifications on a joint basis.

6.     The disclosable interests arise under section 208(4) (b) of the Act,
       namely where a person, not being the registered holder, is entitled
       to exercise a right conferred by the holding of the shares or to 
       control the exercise of such rights, or under section 203 of the Act
       respectively.

7.     Insamuch as there is no disclosable interest of 3% of greater of the 
       share capital, Fidelity International Limited and its direct and indirect
       subsidiaries have no further reporting obligation under Section 198 to 
       202 of the UK Companies Act.  This statement speaks as of its date, and 
       no inference should be drawn that no change has occurred in the facts set
       forth herein after the date hereof.
