There was no bonus element in the rights issue made on 15th February, 
1999.  Accordingly, no adjustment is made on the number of ordinary shares 
issued in calculating the basic earnings per share for both years 1999 and 
1998.

The computation of diluted earnings per share for the year does not assume 
the conversion of the Company's outstanding convertible loan notes since
their exercise would result in an increase in earnings per share from 
continuing ordinary operations.

The computation of diluted earnings per share for the year does not assume 
the exercise of the Company's outstanding share options and warrants 
(expiring on 6th March, 2000) as the exercise price is higher than
the average market price per share.
