unconditional.

As  announced  earlier today Breckenburn has received  valid
acceptances  from  the  holders of  7,966,527  Focus  Shares
(representing approximately 48.36 per cent. of the  existing
issued  share  capital  of Focus).  In addition  Breckenburn
owns  539,000  Focus Shares representing approximately  3.27
per cent. of the issued share capital of Focus.

notice.   The  board  of Breckenburn  stated  in  the  offer
document dated 24 August 1999 its intention to de-list Focus
Shares  from  the  London  Stock Exchange  at  the  earliest
