MANDATORY CASH OFFER

by HAWKPOINT PARTNERS LIMITED ("HAWKPOINT")

on behalf of

NET-EIN SA ("NET-EIN")

for

DEEP-SEA LEISURE PLC ("DEEP-SEA LEISURE")

OFFER UNCONDITIONAL IN ALL RESPECTS



Further to the announcement made on 24 June 2002 of a mandatory Cash Offer, the
board of Net-Ein announces that it has now received valid acceptances in respect
of the 407,960 Deep-Sea Leisure Shares, being 2.1 per cent of Deep-Sea Leisure's
issued ordinary share capital, for which it had received statements of intent to
accept the Cash Offer.

Prior to the commencement of the Offer Period on 24 June 2002, Net-Ein held
9,561,554 Deep-Sea Leisure Shares, representing 49.8 per cent of the issued
ordinary share capital of Deep-Sea Leisure.

Net-Ein therefore now owns or has received valid acceptances for the Cash Offer
in respect of, in aggregate, 9,969,514 Deep-Sea Leisure Shares, representing
approximately 51.9 per cent of Deep-Sea Leisure's issued ordinary share capital.
Accordingly, the board of Net-Ein announces that the condition of the Cash
Offer has now been met and that the Cash Offer has become unconditional in all
respects.

Save as disclosed above, no acceptances of the Cash Offer have been received
from persons acting in concert with Net-Ein, neither Net-Ein nor any person
acting in concert with it held any Deep-Sea Leisure Shares or rights over such
shares prior to the commencement of the Offer Period, nor has any such person
acquired or agreed to acquire any such shares or rights during the Offer Period.

Deep-Sea Leisure Shareholders who wish to accept the Cash Offer should complete,
sign and return the Form of Acceptance as soon as possible, so as to be received
by 3.00 pm on 19 July 2002.  The Cash Offer will remain open for a further 14
days thereafter until 3.00 pm on 2 August 2002, at which time the Offer will
close.  Deep-Sea Leisure Shareholders should note that any acceptances received
after this time will not be valid acceptances of the Cash Offer.
