Sunrise Diamonds plc ('the Company') has today issued 189,235 new ordinary 
shares at 1.75p per share to Francis Johnstone and 165,759 new ordinary shares 
at 1.75p per share to Neil Herbert (Messrs Johnstone and Herbert being the 
two non-executive directors of the Company) following the Company's agreement
with the two non-executive directors that their fee entitlements (net of PAYE
Income Tax and National Insurance) be settled bi-annually by an issue of new 
ordinary shares.

This share issue represents payment of net fees for the period 1 May 2007 to

prior to the date of allotment following the end of the relevant close period.
