Radstone Technology PLC 30 August 2006 For Immediate Release 30 August 2006 RADSTONE TECHNOLOGY PLC ("Radstone" or the "Company") Offer by Eurotech S.p.A. ("Eurotech") for the Company The Board of Radstone notes the announcement by Eurotech regarding a cash offer for Radstone at 360 pence per ordinary share (the "revised offer"). On 11 August 2006, Eurotech approached the Board of Radstone in relation to a proposed cash offer of not less than 350 pence per share. The Board of Radstone reviewed the proposals carefully, in conjunction with its financial advisers Close Brothers and with its stockbrokers JPMorgan Cazenove, and unanimously concluded that the proposals significantly undervalued the Company and its prospects and as such, the Board of Radstone unanimously rejected Eurotech's proposals. The revised offer of 360 pence per ordinary share represents an increase of, at most, 2.9 per cent. above the previous proposal. Accordingly the Board remains unanimously of the view that the revised offer undervalues the Company. Shareholders are strongly advised to take no action in respect of their shareholdings. The Board is fully committed to explore all options in order to maximise shareholder value, and a further announcement will be made in due course.
