Sondex plc

("Sondex" or the "Company")


Update on the proposed acquisition of Innicor Subsurface Technologies Inc. 
("Innicor") and the Firm Placing and Placing & Open Offer

Sondex announces today that having regard to the third quarter financial results
of Innicor released on 7 November 2006 and certain other factors, the board of
directors of Sondex no longer believes that the acquisition of Innicor is in the
best interests of Sondex and its shareholders as a whole at the current offer
price of C$3.75 per Innicor share.

The acquisition of Innicor is subject to a number of conditions, one of which is
the approval of the acquisition by the shareholders of Sondex at an
extraordinary general meeting of Sondex convened for 4.00pm on 16 November 2006.

The Firm Placing and Placing & Open Offer are conditional, inter alia, on the
acquisition of Innicor becoming unconditional and the approval of shareholders
at the extraordinary general meeting on 16 November 2006.

The board of directors of Sondex has determined to amend its recommendation and
now strongly advises that shareholders vote against all the resolutions to be
proposed at the extraordinary general meeting on 16 November 2006.

Sondex will be writing to its shareholders to update them in the very near
future and advises shareholders to take no action until they receive the
circular from the board of directors of Sondex.
