ScottishPower Employee Share Ownership Plan

The Trustees of the ScottishPower Employee Share Ownership Plan ("the Plan") transferred 14,686 Ordinary Shares of 50p each from Lloyds TSB Registrars Corporate Nominee Limited AESOP 1 (allocated shares) to Lloyds TSB Registrars Corporate Nominee Limited AESOP 2 (unallocated shares) during the period 10 May 2005 to 13 June 2005.

Scottish Power plc directors named below, together with 7,742 employees, are potential participants in the Plan and are to be treated as interested in the 305 shares held by Lloyds TSB Registrars Corporate Nominee Ltd AESOP 2 (unallocated shares) on 13 June 2005.
