Update re: disposal of non-core assets

The Board of Itacaré Capital Investments, the real estate investment company focused on residential projects in Brazil, today issues an update regarding the proposed disposal of its two non-core assets.

In July 2012, the Company announced that it had entered into a Letter of Intent ("LOI") with WRP, LLC ("WRP"), a US private investment group, for the sale of Itacaré's interest in Warapuru 2 for a total consideration of $2 million, plus an option for the sale of the Company's interest in the Havaizinho project for a further $7 million to be paid over time. On 14 December, the Company signed a Purchase and Sale Agreement and Other Covenant ("PSA"), which was followed by an announcement on 11 March 2013 that the terms of the LOI had been amended to extend the due diligence period by 90 days in exchange for improved payment terms.

Itacaré today announces that the due diligence period expired without completion and WRP did not meet the agreed deadline. In accordance with the terms of the amended PSA, the Company has been paid a $30,000 non-refundable deposit but the sale to WRP will no longer go ahead. Itacaré will continue to seek a purchaser for its non-core assets in line with its stated strategy.

Itacaré also announces that the Company's Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2012 will be posted to shareholders this week and may also be viewed on, or downloaded from, the Company's website at www.itacarecapital.com.
