In respect of the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Board resolved to pay an interim dividend of 2.147 US cents per ordinary share (2007: 2.147 US cents per share).

Dividend payments will be made in Pounds Sterling to Ordinary shareholders and in US Dollars to holders of American Depository Shares ("ADSs"). A dividend of 1.085 pence per ordinary share (2007: 1.048 pence) and 6.441 US cents per ADS (2007: 6.441 US cents) will be paid on October 9, 2008 to persons whose names appear on the register of members of the Company at the close of business on September 12, 2008.

As previously disclosed Shire intends to put in place Income Access Share arrangements enabling shareholders to choose whether they receive their dividends from a company resident for tax purposes in the Republic of Ireland or from a company resident for tax purposes in the United Kingdom. The arrangements will be in place for the interim dividend. In accordance with the Shire ADS Deposit Agreement, the ADS Depositary will make an election on behalf of all holders of ADSs to receive UK sourced dividends. Details of the Income Access Share arrangements can be found in the Scheme Circular issued on April 16, 2008, which is available on the Company's website http://www.shire.com<
