In accordance with Rule 17 of the AIM Rules for Companies, African Consolidated
Resources plc announces that Mr. Andrew Cranswick, Chief Executive Officer, was
on 27 October 2010 served with a sequestration order by the Deputy Commission of
Taxation in the Federal Court of Australia, Western Australia District Registry
General Division, against his estate. Â The sequestration order has arisen
pursuant to a creditor's petition served on Mr Cranswick on 8 December 2009
relating to unpaid taxes in Australia following an act of bankruptcy on 9 June
2009.
Mr Cranswick has made the following personal statement:
"The petition which resulted in the sequestration order was founded on an
Australian tax assessment premised upon tax residency in Australia which I
strongly deny. Furthermore I never personally received notice of the petition
and only became aware of it after the hearing at which the sequestration order
was made had taken place."
The Company intends to make a further announcement in due course.
Save for the declaration above there is no further information to be disclosed
in respect Schedule Two paragraph (g) of the AIM Rules for Companies.
