The General Meeting will be held at the Company's offices at 160 Brompton Road, Knightsbridge, London, SW3 1HW on 28 September 2012 at 9.15 a.m. or as soon as possible thereafter following the Annual General Meeting of the Company to be held at 9.00 a.m. on 28 September 2012. Following a review of the benefit of the Company's shares continuing to be traded on AIM, the directors (other than Charles McLeod) have concluded that is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole and is most likely to promote the success of the Company for the benefit of its shareholders as a whole, if the admission of the Company's shares to trading on AIM is cancelled. The current economic situation has led to significant falls in the values of the global stock markets, which have been exaggerated in small cap, low liquidity stocks. It is the opinion of the directors that, in the current market, the Company's market capitalisation has become disassociated with the inherent value of the Company. The directors also believe that a stagnant or falling share price has had a de-motivating effect on the business and its employees and also a potentially adverse impact on customer and supplier perception........................................

Investors in Bumi are becoming accustomed to seeing the group at bottom end of the mid-cap index, and today was no different. The FTSE 250 company, which financier Nat Rothschild brought to London, lost a further 19.3 to 268.7p, the worst-performer on the index. That means the shares have now dropped almost 25% since last Tuesday, with debt levels at coal producer Bumi Resources, in which the London-listed group has a 29pc stake, as well as weak coal prices a source of investor concern. Investors took fright last month, when Bumi Resources posted a first-half loss and it was revealed Recapital Asset Management did not meet a deadline to repay a $231m (£145m) investment to the company, which would have helped the group with debt reduction, The Telegraph explains.

Mark Dixon, CEO of Regus, said: “We are launching a new centre in Rwanda to provide businesses with smarter, flexible ways to grow and explore the opportunities created by economic growth in East Africa. We help them to do so at minimal upfront cost, without committing themselves to long-term premises. These advantages have fuelled demand for our services across Africa and especially East Africa where we intend to double the size of our network by 2014.” The Rwanda opening continues the rapid expansion of Regus’ network in Africa and worldwide. The company recently reiterated its plan to open 200 new centres worldwide by the end of 2012. The growth of the Regus network is helping more and more companies to open up new revenue streams in Africa’s emerging and frontier markets, without the high upfront costs of taking on long-term space abroad. These markets offer huge opportunities to businesses in all sectors, with The Economist predicting that seven of the world’s top ten fastest-growing economies in 2011-15 will be in Africa, including Rwanda. At the same time the International Monetary Fund predicts Rwanda’s GDP will reach 7% in 2013. Business centres like Regus’ new location in Kigali offer companies of all sizes and in all sectors a low-cost, flexible base to explore these high growth markets – to network, find partners or suppliers and recruit staff.

Commenting on the first sales of addition of NatureNetting™, Alex Dowdeswell, CEO of Ceres Media International said, "NatureNetting™ went from conception and turned into product for sale within 5 months. Our first customer who placed an order for in excess of £95,000 has reported that it was totally satisfied with the performance of the product and the service received from Ceres Media. Following successful deployment of the product, we have been approached by a number of other outdoor event organisers looking to use a material with environmental credentials for their events. We can use our proprietary materials knowledge to create a robust and sustainable product to exacting specifications desired by the end users which gives us a huge advantage over competing products which may not be environmentally friendly. We are very excited about this new product and can see NatureNetting™ adding significantly to the growing revenues of the company."

New Product Sales The Company is pleased to announce that, further to the addition of NatureNetting™ to the Ceres Media product portfolio which was the subject of a news release recently, it has satisfied a substantial initial order for the product of £95,000. The product has been made and delivered to the organisers of a major public sporting event this summer and was manufactured and delivered to the customer against a very tight schedule. NatureNetting™ is a compostable plant based natural netting with high tensile strength and excellent covering characteristics. The netting can be used for mesh cover or barrier fencing. The availability of this novel material has been enthusiastically received by the organisers of external events, concerts and festivals and for whom the product was developed. After use, the material is biodegradable and compostable in accordance with relevant US and European standards becoming a natural fertilizer and soil conditioner. As a result, NatureNetting™ does not pose the same threats to the environment that current materials do when they are sent to landfill for disposal. NatureNetting™ provides a fully compostable and biodegradable option now for outdoor events and festivals.

C.E.O.'s REVIEW AND OUTLOOK Today, Silanis is the only provider of electronic signatures to the enterprise marketplace that delivers its solutions as SaaS, both multi-tenant and as a dedicated private instance on the Cloud, or on-premise. Our vision is simple: to be the most widely used e-signature solution in high-value, regulated and compliance-driven applications worldwide. There are numerous providers of basic e-signature products in the market today that provide simple signing capabilities to be applied to low-value, horizontal applications where the e-signature ostensibly replaces a fax machine. Our strategy is to focus on market segments where signatures matter greatly, requiring us to deliver superior solutions that encompass process orchestration, robust electronic evidence, device independent mobile support, sophisticated transaction management, invaluable customer insight and analytics. The technology investment required to deliver these capabilities is material, but such investment is yielding the capacity to generate per transaction revenues that are multiples greater than the basic e-signature products on the market today. Our investments in mobile and customer insight analytics solutions are not only being adopted by leading insurance and financial institutions in order to provide a transformational customer experience. They are fuelling a whole new value proposition - having real-time insight into how consumers are interacting with our clients. We are fully aware that the purposeful transition to increased recurring transactional revenue, at the expense of one-time perpetual license revenue, is very visible in the short-term. But we heartily believe this is a sound strategy because it will successfully align the buying behaviour of our enterprise customers with our long-term strategic growth objectives. First half total revenue notwithstanding, we have signed more new customers year-to-date than in any other time in our history. We have closed significant services and transactional contracts to be delivered in upcoming periods. The revenue mix will continue to shift - by design. I look forward to updating you on our progress.

"Leveraging the growth and momentum of our strong 2011 results, Silanis is well positioned to realize its any-premise strategy. As the e-signature market continues to grow, our ability to deliver enterprise class solutions either as multitenant SaaS, on a private cloud, or on premise, is a unique differentiator that addresses the broadest possible market opportunities. According to a leading market analyst firm, by 2014, 50% of e-signature implementations will be delivered through SaaS, while the remainder will be delivered on-premise. Revenues for the first half of 2012 are lower than the comparative period because of last year's extraordinary single-largest perpetual financial services license in our history. What is not reflected in these results are the very strong bookings that we have secured year to date whose revenues will be recognized in subsequent periods. We are very fortunate to be able to invest in transactional recurring revenue streams that, we believe, will significantly enhance Silanis' value." said Tommy Petrogiannis, founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Silanis.

E-signature processing company Silanis International (SNS) saw revenues crumble to 3.3 million dollars (2.1 million pounds) for the six months ended 30th June, from 7.3 million dollars (4.6 million pounds) in the first half of 2011. The group attributed the decline to a fall in the sales of perpetual software licences as it looks to transition into a more recurring revenue based model. The firm added that it is investing in the development of its mobile technology, noting that it is being adopted by a number of leading insurance and financial institutions. The shares crashed by 3p to 24.5p.

Outlook We see co-production and self-financing of low-budget film production as an ideal way to secure product for the UK home entertainment market and benefit from international sales. This is a low risk way of accessing premium content for domestic release at lower investment levels than the traditional route and diversifies risk through international sales. Our first self-financed project, "The Borderlands", is a found footage horror film currently in post-production and scheduled for release in early 2013. Our strategic plan includes two more films in production by the end of 2012 and up to four further films in 2013. We continue to seek other suitable opportunities to strengthen our current operations and broaden our range of activities. Mark Webster Chairman 4 September 2012

Mark Webster, CEO of Metrodome, commented: "The first six months have shown the strength and resilience of the film business in difficult market conditions. Despite early setbacks we are committed to look for the right opportunities to grow our business both organically and by M&A."
