FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

18 May 2012

                      LONDON & ASSOCIATED PROPERTIES PLC:                       

                         INTERIM MANAGEMENT STATEMENT                          

London & Associated Properties PLC ("LAP" or "the Company"), the specialist
retail investor, today releases its Interim Management Statement for the period
from 1 January 2012 to 18 May 2012.

While trading continues to be challenging, the Board is pleased to report that
vacancy levels throughout our portfolio remain extremely low at less than 2% by
rental value. This reflects the quality of our shopping centres and the broad
diversity of our tenant base. We believe that our centres will continue to
perform well with relatively high occupancy levels for the foreseeable future,
in spite of the current difficult economic environment.

As we have stated previously, cash flow management remains a high priority. We
are negotiating the renewal of our £44m revolving credit facility with the
Royal Bank of Scotland which expires in September 2012. None of our other term
loans expire within the next 12 months and LAP remains within its banking
covenants.

Our asset management subsidiary, London & Associated Management Services, is
continuing to grow its franchise. We have been invited to undertake strategic
reviews of a number of distressed shopping centre portfolios as lenders seek to
utilise our proven asset management skills in stabilising their investments.

In March 2012 we sold our remaining share portfolio (excluding our stake in
Bisichi Mining PLC) for £0.78m, reflecting a £0.1 million surplus over 31
December 2011 book values. Since the year end we have also moved offices from
St James's Square, London SW1 to Bruton Place, London W1. These decisions have
freed up more resources which will enable us to take advantage of commercial
opportunities as they arise. Last week we changed our stockbrokers to Westhouse
Securities Limited.

                                     Ends.
