Disposal of Attica Nightclub, Directorate Change and Update on Possible Offer





Disposal of Attica



Mezzanine is pleased to announce that Mezzanine Operations Limited and
Smollensky's Balloon Limited, both of which are subsidiaries of the Company have
disposed of the business and assets of Attica nightclub, 24 Kingly Street,
London ("Attica") to Soiram Limited ("Soiram") in consideration for payment of
#3,400,000. The assets consist of the remainder of the term of the lease of the
premises, associated fixtures and fittings, stock and goodwill. Proceeds from
the disposal will be used to reduce the Company's indebtedness and provide
additional working capital for the Group.



Marios Georgallides, who was the Chief Executive Officer of Mezzanine until
immediately prior to completion of the disposal of Attica by the Company, is a
director of Soiram.  As a result of this relationship, the disposal of Attica is
classed as a related party transaction pursuant to Rule 12 of the AIM Rules.  In
accordance with their obligations, the Directors excluding Marios Georgallides,
consider, having consulted their Nominated Adviser, that the terms of the
disposal are fair and reasonable as far as Mezzanine shareholders are concerned.



The total net asset value of Attica was #2,937,158 as at the completion date.
During the twelve months to 1 December 2002 Attica generated sales of #2,330,200
and earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortisation of
#221,200.



Roddy Sutherland, Mezzanine's Chairman, commenting on the disposal said, "This
disposal is the second major step of the Company's well-documented strategy to
dispose of non-core assets and demonstrates the Board's commitment to this aim.
I expect to be able to announce further disposals in the coming months."


Directorate Change

Immediately prior to the disposal of Attica to Soiram, Marios Georgallides resigned from the Board and as Chief 
Executive Officer of the Company with immediate effect. The Board would like to thank Marios for his contribution to the
Company and wishes him well in his role as a Director of Soiram.

Roddy Sutherland, Mezzanine's Chairman will now act in the dual role as the Company's Chief Executive Officer and 
Chairman.
