INTERNATIONAL PUBLIC PARTNERSHIPS LIMITED
Investment holding in RiverCity Motorway
International Public Partnerships Limited ("the Company") notes the announcement made on 25th February 2011 by RiverCity Motorway Pty Limited (a company listed on the Australian Stock Exchange) that KordaMentha had been appointed as receiver and managers to the RiverCity Motorway group. The Company holds a 3.82% interest in RiverCity Motorway Pty Limited. As at 31st December 2010 the Company valued this holding on a mark to market basis at less than £220,000, which represented less than 0.1% of the Company's portfolio. The Company awaits further information but has been monitoring this position for some time and is unsurprised by this development. The RiverCity Motorway project differs from the remainder of the Company's portfolio in that revenues generated by the project are based on the level of demand for that asset (i.e. motorists paying a toll) rather than the availability of the asset, the latter being the basis upon which the remainder of the portfolio's revenues are received and which is uncorrelated to the level of demand for an asset..
