EGM for Change to AIM  |  Announced - 9 June 2006

Not for release, publication or distribution in whole or in part in, into, or from the United States, Canada, Australia or Japan

Proposed Cancellation of Listing on the Official List and Admission to trading on AIM and Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting Introduction

In the Chairman's statement published on 28 April 2006 within the second interim results, stockholders were informed that the Board was, inter alia, reviewing the Company’s listing on the Official List of the UK Listing Authority. In the light of recent legislation and the regulatory burden facing listed companies, your Board has decided that the future of your company would be enhanced by transferring to the Alternative Investment Market. This market, operated and regulated by the London Stock Exchange plc, has an established reputation with investors and analysts. We believe your company will be better served being admitted to trading alongside others of a similar stature and sharing characteristics in common than continuing beside the behemoths of the quoted arena.

Accordingly, the Company intends to apply formally to the UKLA to cancel the listing of its Stock Units on the Official List, and in accordance with the Listing Rules, an Extraordinary General Meeting is being convened at which a resolution will be proposed to cancel the listing of the Company’s Stock Units on the Official List and to authorise the Directors to apply for the Company’s issued Stock Units to be admitted to trading on AIM.

A circular is today being sent to stockholders to provide them with details of the business to be conducted at the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company to be held at 41 Cheval Place, London SW7 1EW at 11.15 a.m. on 28 June 2006 and to explain why the Directors believe that the Proposals are in the best interests of the Company and its Stockholders as a whole.

The Company has appointed Grant Thornton Corporate Finance to act as its nominated adviser in relation to the Company’s proposed admission to AIM.

At the EGM, Stockholders will be asked to approve the Cancellation in light of the proposed transfer of trading of the Stock Units to AIM. In accordance with the Listing Rules, the Resolution must be carried by a majority of not less than 75 per cent. of the holders of the Stock Units (being entitled to do so) who vote in person or by proxy. Stockholders’ approval is not required for Admission. Accordingly, the Resolution will be proposed as an extraordinary resolution.

Also, in accordance with the Listing Rules, cancellation of the Listing will (if the Resolution is passed at the EGM) take effect not less than 20 business days after the date of the EGM and it is expected that such Cancellation and Admission will occur on or around 27 July 2006.

Background to and reasons for the Proposals

The Board has felt for some time that the cost of administering the compliance burden that applies to listed companies is considerable and disproportionate to the size of the Company.

The obligations of an AIM company are similar to those of a company on the Official List with certain exceptions, of which the significant ones are referred to below:

• For AIM companies, prior shareholder approval is only required for reverse-takeovers and disposals that result in a fundamental change of business. Under the Listing Rules, a broader range of transactions requires shareholder approval.
• There is no requirement under the AIM Rules for listing particulars or admission documents for further issues of securities although there may be other legal reasons for a prospectus to be required.
• Under the AIM Rules, a Nominated Adviser is required at all times which has ongoing responsibilities to the London Stock Exchange. In addition, a broker is required at all times.
• The Combined Code does not apply directly to AIM companies although it is still considered good practice to comply with the provisions in so far as they are relevant to the size and type of the AIM company.

Further, the Directors believe that AIM provides a more flexible environment and a proven successful alternative in which the Company will better be able to:

• Achieve its business and strategic objectives;
• Reduce the formalities associated with maintaining a listing on a regulated market, whilst continuing to provide a platform for trading in its Stock Units; and
• Reduce costs and formalities associated with future potential transactions and other actions by the Company.

Liquidity on AIM is currently provided by market makers who are member firms of the London Stock Exchange and are obliged to quote a price in shares between 8.00 a.m. and 4.30 p.m. on business days.

As part of the AIM admission process, the Company will publish before the EGM, on its website, special purpose audited consolidated accounts prepared in accordance with IFRS in respect of the period to 31 December 2005. Following Admission, the Company will continue to prepare its consolidated accounts in accordance with IFRS. The Company and the other members of its group will also, going forward, prepare statutory individual company accounts under UK GAAP, which, as the Company will no longer be listed on the main market of the London Stock Exchange, do not need to be prepared in accordance with FRS 26.
