Due to strong demand, the offer period relating to the Bonds
closed early at 10.00 a.m. (London time) on 30 August 2012, and

Executive Chairman of CLS, Sten Mortstedt, commented:
"CLS's bond issue has proved very successful and we are
delighted that a large number of investors have shown great
confidence in our Company. Due to an exceptional demand we were
obliged to close subscriptions four days prior to schedule, as
subscriptions already exceeded the initial target by almost 40 per
cent.. This also led us to increase the size of the issue to GBP65
million from the initial objective of GBP50 million."
