The Company announces that, following, inter alia, the exercise of certain
options, awards and warrants to acquire ordinary shares of 25 pence in the
capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") on 9 October 2007, it has accordingly
allotted an aggregate of 4,887,056 new Ordinary Shares (the "New Ordinary
Shares") credited as fully paid and ranking pari passu with the existing
Ordinary Shares in issue.


3,550,000 of the New Ordinary Shares were beneficially acquired by Simon Beart

these interests are set out in the appendix to this announcement.

the proposed scheme of arrangement under section 425 of the Act (the "Scheme")
to effect the acquisition of the Company by Spice PLC.


Application will not be made to London Stock Exchange plc for the New Ordinary

expected to become effective on 12 October 2007.
