Notes:



* Prior to the Placing and Subscription, the Company had in issue 73,901,725
Ordinary Shares which were admitted to trading on AIM. Subsidiaries controlled
by the Company have in issue 54,174,928 Exchangeable Securities. Special Voting
Shares and Exchangeable Securities were issued to certain shareholders as part
of the consideration for the acquisition of the Newfound group by the Company
pursuant to an Acquisition Agreement dated 31 August 2006. At the time of such
exchange, an application will be made for the new Ordinary Shares issued to be
admitted to trading on AIM and an equal number of Special Voting Shares will be
cancelled or repurchased for nil consideration. Although the AIM Rules only
apply to Ordinary Shares admitted to trading on AIM, the Directors of the
Company regard the aggregate of the Ordinary Shares in issue from time to time
and the number of Ordinary Shares that would be issued if all Exchangeable
Securities were exchanged as being the number of shares to be used for the
calculation of earnings per share and the market capitalisation of the Company.
Following the Subscription and Placing, the enlarged share capital is
233,884,615.

** Simon Longfield has not been appointed formally as a Director of the Company
under the laws of The Netherlands at a general meeting of shareholders. In the
meantime he has been appointed as an Officer of the Company with the title Chief
Financial Officer.



Following the issue of the Placing Shares and the new Ordinary Shares issued
pursuant to the Subscription, the Company's total issued share capital with
voting rights and which is admitted to trading on AIM will consist of
179,709,687 Ordinary Shares, with one voting right per share.  Following
Admission to AIM of the Placing Shares which is expected to occur on 11 December
2007, this figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator
for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify
their interest in or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the
Company in accordance with the AIM Rules.

In addition, the Company has in issue 54,174,928 Special Voting Shares, which
constitute a separate class of share that is not admitted to trading on AIM.
Each Special Voting Share confers the right to cast one vote at a general
meeting.  The total number of voting rights in the Company is therefore
233,884,615.  The Company does not hold any shares in Treasury.
