HOTEL SERVICES [CEYLON] PLC – Article published in Sunday Leader Newspaper on 14th December 2008

The company informed that the major shareholders have made it known to their brokers from the inception in dealing with the many inquires that have come their way; the shares owned by them would be available for sale in the event that a satisfactory offer is received.The SLPA too among others had shown an interest in the company last July but subsequently the interest had waned off and lapsed there been no definitive discussions or negotiations with SLPA thereafter.The main shareholders are also unaware of the truth or accuracy of the contents of the Cabinet Memorandum which has been published in the Sunday Leader of the 14th of December 2008 since it is presumably confidential.The fact that there has not been any price movement or trading activity consequent to the aforesaid newspaper article, may go on to show that the news was not of any significance to the market.
