13 August 2007

THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION IN OR INTO THE
UNITED STATES, AUSTRALIA, CANADA, THE REPUBLIC OF IRELAND, THE REPUBLIC OF SOUTH
  AFRICA OR JAPAN OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHERE TO DO SO WOULD CONSTITUTE A
              VIOLATION OF THE RELEVANT LAWS OF SUCH JURISDICTION.

                       Result of Special General Meeting

Cross Shore announces that it has adjourned the Special General Meeting convened
for 10 August 2007 at which, inter alia, Cross Shore Shareholders were to be
asked to vote on a resolution to approve the acquisition of ReSearch 
Pharmaceutical Services Inc. ("Acquisition").

As of 10 August 2007, the company had received sufficient votes against the
Acquisition that the resolution was unlikely to be approved if put to the 
shareholders at the Special General Meeting. In addition, as of 10 August 2007,
approximately 35.4 million warrants had been tendered for exchange pursuant to
the tender offer. This amount reflects an increase of approximately 11.4
million warrants from the amount tendered as of 8 August 2007 but remains
0.2% less than the 95% required to be tendered as a condition to the
Acquisition. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, this condition is waivable.
The completion of the warrant tender offer also remains conditional on 
completion of the Acquisition and absent completion of the Acquisition, the 
warrants will not convert into shares and will remain as warrants. Pending 
satisfaction of the conditions of the Merger Agreement, either party is entitled
to terminate the Merger Agreement on written notice to the other.

As announced on 3 August 2007, Cross Shore had received expressions of interest 
from third party institutional investors who indicated their interest in acquiring
a significant number of shares and warrants which, if acquired, voted, and 
tendered respectively, may allow the transaction to proceed. Discussions have been
ongoing with one of those institutional investors and the Board of Directors
reasonably believes that it is possible to reach a definitive agreement shortly
to allow the transaction to proceed.

Consequently the Board has decided to extend the adjournment of the Special
General Meeting until a time to be determined in the immediate near future to
allow additional time to enter into such definitive agreement and tabulate
revised proxies.

The adjourned meeting will take place as before at the offices of McDermott,
WIll & Emery, 227 West Monroe Street, Chicago, Illinois 60606. Proxies already 
deposited in respect of the Special General Meeting will remain valid for the 
adjourned meeting, however, if a shareholder wishes to change their vote, they 
should either request and complete a new proxy form or attend the meeting in 
person. A new deadline for the return of proxies will be notified at the same 
time as the date for the adjourned meeting.
