Notes to Editors:

The Company is an investment finance company and the investment policy is to
hold strategic stakes in a few smaller UK quoted companies and maintain a
diversified portfolio of U.K. listed equities, together with a few holdings on
AIM, PLUS and some unlisted shares. Strategic Investments are minority
positions where the Board seeks to maintain a close working relationship with
the management of the investee. Western is represented on the boards of three
of its four Strategic Investments. The General Portfolio is managed by two
non-executive directors, Andrew Hall and Michael Robotham, and the Board as a
whole takes decisions in relation to both strategic and unlisted investments.
