    The order sanctioning the Scheme and confirming the Reduction was granted at the Court Hearing held earlier today and is expected to
become effective from 24 June 2008. Accordingly, trading in Virotec shares have been suspended and it is expected that the Virotec Shares on
AIM will be cancelled from 7.00am on 25 June 2008. 

    The New Hydrodec Shares due to Virotec shareholders will be allotted today. Dealings in the New Hydrodec Shares are expected to commence
at 8.00am on 25 June 2008. Fractional entitlements to New Hydrodec Shares will be retained and sold in the market for the benefit of the
Enlarged Group. Cheques for those Virotec Shareholders who will receive cash as full or part settlement will be sent no later than 14 days
after the Effective Date.
      
    Unless the context otherwise requires, capitalised terms used, but not defined, in this announcement have the same meanings as given to
them in the Scheme Document dated 13 May 2008.
