joint deed administrators advise the Deed of Company Arrangement has been fully effectuated - control of the company therefore reverts to the directors - it will be interesting to see if shareholders now hear anything from their directors

administrators have paid a dividend of 100 cents in the dollar to admitted unsecured creditors and the Deed of Company Arrangement has now been effectuated

company advises its principal activities are trade magazine publisher

according to the Deed Administrators this company is still operating - creditors claims are being dealt with but Deed Administrators are unable to provide any information about the company's prospects for the re-quotation of its shares

resolutions passed at a creditors meeting for RTS and 2 wholly owned subsidiaries to enter into Deeds of Company Arrangement - the terms of the deeds are lengthy and shareholders should refer to the release for details

it is too early to predict the outcomes - shareholders are only able to claim a capital loss when a liquidator is appointed and issues the appropriate declaration or the company is deregistered

shares suspended from quotation as company appoints R Dean-Willcocks, I Purchas and N Milanos of Star Dean-Willcocks as voluntary administrators to the company and to 2 of its subsidiaries - adminstrators indicate they will continue to trade the businesses with a view to selling them as a going concern
