                      Dispatch of Update to Offer Document 
 
On 4 June 2010, it was announced that under Rule 9 of the City Code on Takeovers 
and Mergers (the "Code"), as Deepdale PNE Holdings Limited ("DPNE" or the 
"Offeror") held more than 29.9% of the issued share capital of the Company, DPNE 
was obliged to make a mandatory unconditional offer for the Ordinary Shares not 
already held by it at a price of 5 pence per Share in cash, being a price not 
less than the highest price paid for the Shares by DPNE, in the 12 months prior 
to the announcement of such mandatory offer (the "Offer"). 
 
On 16 June 2010, the Company confirmed that an Offer Document setting out the 
full terms of the Offer (the "Offer Document") had been dispatched to 
shareholders. 
 
The Company confirms today, that a letter (the "Update Letter") has been 
dispatched to Shareholders updating paragraph 10 of Part III of the Offer 
Document pursuant to which Halliwells LLP, Legal Adviser to the Offeror, stated 
they were satisfied that sufficient resources are available to the Offeror to 
enable it to satisfy in full the total cash consideration payable under the 
terms of the Offer. 
 
Halliwells LLP was placed in Administration on 21 July 2010.  HBJ Gateley 
Wareing (Manchester) LLP is now Legal Adviser to the Offeror and is satisfied
