BHP Billiton Plc - Notification of Interests of Directors
CORRECTION
The announcement of 10 December 2004 contained two errors: the Billiton ESOP
Trustee Limited was quoted as having made the transaction on behalf of a
beneficiary of the Company`s Group Incentive Scheme and that Mr B Gilbertson had
an interest in the balance of the Trust of 1,455,994 shares as a potential
beneficiary of the Trust. The correct position is that the transaction was made
on behalf of a beneficiary of the Company`s Restricted Share Scheme and that
Messrs M Salamon and C W Goodyear have an interest in the balance held by the
Trust of 1,455,994 shares as potential beneficiaries of the Trust. A replacement
announcement is set out below.
