                           ("TEP" or "the Company")                            

             Interim Results for the six months ended 30 June 2006             

Chairman's Statement

I am pleased to report the unaudited results for the six months ended 30 June
2006. Turnover for the period totalled �136,000 (2005: �169,000). The operating
loss for the period was �24,000 compared to an operating loss of �36,000 in the
same period last year. The loss on ordinary activities before and after
taxation was �41,000 compared to a loss after tax of �44,000 in the first six
months of last year.

Whilst trading results continue to be disappointing, the current figure for
deals in progress is at an all time high and reflects the increased activity in
the traded endowment policy market. As a result of the increased demand for
Traded Endowment Policies the TEP Exchange has been able to increase its
transaction charge by 50 per cent., the result of which should be evident in
the latter months of this year and early in 2007. The strong continental
European demand for British TEPs is expected to strengthen further in the
second half of 2006 and this is expected to continue throughout 2007.

Your Board continues to focus its efforts on financial viability and the
creation of shareholder value. During 2006, opportunities to add non U.K. based
trading activity and additional non-TEP related products were identified and
are expected to be launched later this year and early in 2007.

Your directors are not proposing an interim dividend.

Companies Act 1985. The interim accounts have been prepared in accordance with
accounting policies consistent with the financial statements for the year ended
31 December 2005.

Copies of the Interim Results will be sent to Shareholders shortly and will be
available to members of the public from the Company's registered office, 12,
Grosvenor Court, Foregate Street, Chester CH1 1HG. Full accounts for the year
ended 31 December 2005 on which the auditors gave an unqualified report and
contained no statement under Section 237 (2) or (3) of the Companies Act 1985,
have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies.

2. Contingent Liability

In calculating the taxation debtor at 30 June 2006, the Directors have assumed
that there is a successful outcome to the discussions that are taking place
with the tax authorities. As these discussions are at an early stage, it is
difficult to quantify the financial impact on the Company in the event that
there is an unsuccessful outcome to the discussions.

3. Loss per ordinary share

The loss per share has been calculated by dividing the loss after taxation for
the period of �41,000 (2005: �44,000) by the weighted average number of
ordinary shares of 224,543,426 (2005:224,543,426) in issue during the period.

4. Dividends

No dividend is proposed for the six months ended 30 June 2006.
