Derek Bonham, Chairman of the Company, and Andrew Arends, Chief Executive, have

agreement entered into by the Company and certain of the sellers of CamAxys
Limited on 28 October 2002 ('Acquisition Agreement') ('Deferred Initial
Consideration Shares'), Derek Bonham and Andrew Arends had together committed to
purchase from Barbara Fielden and John Fielden an amount of Ordinary Shares
equal to 29.9 per cent. of the amount of any Deferred Initial Consideration
Shares issued by the Company.



On 14 July 2003 the Company agreed to issue 617,737 Deferred Initial
Consideration Shares pursuant to the terms of the Acquisition Agreement.  These
Ordinary Shares have now been issued and accordingly, Derek Bonham has today
purchased 92,351 Ordinary Shares and Andrew Arends has today purchased 92,352
Ordinary Shares, each at a price of 28 pence per share.



Following these purchases, the interests of Derek Bonham and Andrew Arends are
