Press Announcement for Immediate Release

Spazio Investment N.V.
("Spazio" or the "Company")
Update re Offer
On 13 July 2009, the Committee notified Shareholders that following the first
Closing Date of the Offer, the Laxey Group now owns or controls 15,219,972
Spazio Ordinary Shares, representing 66.3 per cent. of the total issued share
capital of Spazio and that TEI has declared the Offer unconditional in all
respects. The Offer has been extended and will remain open for acceptance until
1.00pm on 24 July 2009 at which time the Offer will close.
The Committee continues to believe that the Revised Offer Price of EUR5.125
significantly undervalues the Company. However, the Laxey Group has stated that
they may seek the cancellation of the Spazio Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM.
In accordance with the AIM Rules, cancellation of the Spazio Ordinary Shares to
trading on AIM would be conditional upon the consent of not less than 75 per
cent. of the votes cast by Shareholders given in general meeting. If the
admission of the Spazio Ordinary Shares is cancelled, there will be no public
market in the Spazio Ordinary Shares and Shareholders should be aware that they
may have difficulty in realising their investment in the Company.
The Committee believes that Shareholders should take the information above into
consideration in determining whether or not to accept the Offer.
In accordance with the Company's articles of association, the Company confirms
that is has 22,945,847 ordinary shares of EUR0.20 in issue and admitted to trading
on the London Stock Exchange under the ISIN code of NL0000686319.
The definitions used in this Announcement are contained either in the Offer
Response of 3 July 2009 or in the announcement from the Committee in respect of
the Revised Offer on 7 July 2009.
