CP Ships Denies Reports of Kien Hung Acquisition

03.03.03

London, UK (03 March 2003) - CP Ships Limited announced today that it does not intend to acquire Kien Hung.

Growth through selective acquisition is a well-known element of CP Ships' overall business strategy. Therefore, at any given time a number of possible transactions are likely to be under consideration and there is on occasion rumor of its possible interest in particular businesses.

As a matter of policy, CP Ships does not usually comment on such rumors or associated reports. However, in light of a number of recent inaccurate reports of a definitive transaction between CP Ships and Kien Hung, an exception is being made in this case.
