The Company's Chairman, Professor Francesco Gardin, Mr. Villa, Luigi Fogliani (a
relative of Professor Gardin's wife) and certain others not connected with any
of them (the "Investors") have agreed to invest up to £305,000 in interest free
convertible loan stock due 2006 (the "Loan Stock"). The Loan Stock is
convertible at the option of the holder or the Company at the mean mid market
price for the ordinary shares of one penny each for the business days between 24
June 2005 (the date upon which the Investors first expressed interest in
investing) and 15 August 2005 (being a date sufficiently in the future to allow
the market to digest this announcement. If not converted by either holder or the
Company, the Loan Stock will be repaid by the Company on 31 March 2006. To the
extent that Investors have not already done so, funds will be provided to the
Company by 15 August 2005.

The funds raised by the issue of the Loan Stock will be used to meet the ongoing
working capital requirements of the Company and its investees.

AIM RULE 13

The Directors, other than Messrs Gardin and Villa, having consulted with the
Company's nominated adviser believe the terms of the Loan Stock are fair and
reasonable insofar as the shareholders are concerned.
