Further to the announcement made on 29 June 2006, REA announces that the
agreement between REA and KBC Securities N.V. ('KBC'), whereby KBC agreed to use
its reasonable endeavours to procure placees for further dollar notes, has now
become unconditional. As a result, a total of $4,100,000 nominal of new dollar
notes have today been allotted fully paid at an issue price of 92.5 per cent of
par. These new dollar notes rank pari passu in all respects with the dollar
notes already in issue (and, in particular, will be entitled to interest on 31
December 2006 calculated as if it accrued from 1 July 2006).

Application has been made for the new dollar notes to be admitted to the
Official List of the Financial Services Authority and to trading on the London
Stock Exchange's market for listed securities. It is expected that dealings in
these dollar notes will commence on 4 July 2006.
