Disposal

Capitaltech PLC 20 April 2001 CapitalTech's wholly owned subsidiary, South Eastern Recovery II Limited, ('SERII') has exchanged contracts with completion to be effected on 15 May 2001, for the sale to The Residential Property Unit Trust of (a) 37 flats in five developments in Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Hampshire at a consideration of £2,756,923, and (b) the entire issued share capital of Crowfield House Management Limited ('Crowfield'), a dormant freehold owning subsidiary with net assets of £1 for a consideration of £1 plus refund to SERII of inter-company debt of £13,077 representing the Group's internal transfer price of freeholds transferred by SERII to Crowfield. This is a substantial transaction in terms of the AIM Rules. The said flats (and freeholds) were carried by the Group at £2,807,000 (the net asset figure) but after management costs and interest allocation traded at break-even. The consideration is being paid in cash and will be applied by the Group to reduce gearing by repayment of £1.4 million to Group bankers and £1.2 million in further reduction of the Group's indebtedness to the Adair Trusts, the Group's majority shareholder in which the Group's Chairman, RFM Adair has an interest. The Residential Property Unit Trust is a Jersey domiciled open ended unauthorised property unit trust managed by Schroder Property Managers (Jersey) Limited.
