("MRS" or the "Company")

Notice of Requisition of General Meeting

Management Resource Solutions plc, a leading Maintenance, Fabrication, Civil and Earthworks company, announces it has received a letter from certain registered holders of MRS shares, each a nominee of and acting on the instructions of one or more funds managed by Barclays Direct Investing Nominees Limited and Interactive Investor Services Nominees Limited, under section 303 of the Companies Act 2006, requisitioning a general meeting of the Company's shareholders (the "Requisition").

The Requisition puts forward resolutions that seek the removal of certain Directors of the Board of MRS, being John Zorbas, Timothy Jones, Robert Hackett, and any Director appointed to the Board between the date of the Requisition and the date on which the shareholder general meeting to consider the resolutions of the Requisition is convened, and to appoint John Copley and Robert Wall to the Board of the Company (the "Resolutions").

The Board of Directors regrets that this action has been taken a short time after separate recent requisitioned resolutions were not passed and considers the Requisition to be an unwelcome distraction from the objectives of the Board and the Company. The Board is unanimously of the view that the Resolutions are not in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole and intends to unanimously recommend that shareholders vote against the Resolutions at any requisitioned general meeting.

The Board is required to call a general meeting within 21 days of receipt of the Requisition and to provide for such meeting to be held on a date not more than 28 days after the notice of such meeting. The Company will send shareholders a notice of general meeting in due course in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
