Sale of Vanco Group Limited following appointment of Vanco administrator
 
Following the announcement of the suspension of the Company's shares on 6 May 2008, the Board of Vanco has explored all financial and
strategic options available to the business in the light of its adverse financial position. In this regard, the Board has been working
closely with its secured creditors and its advisers with a view to maximising value to the Company's stakeholders.
 
The Board now announces that Simon Granger and Chad Griffin of FTI Consulting Limited have been appointed joint administrators of Vanco and
that they have sold Vanco Group Limited ("VGL"), the holding company of Vanco's operating subsidiaries other than Vanco Direct USA, to a
wholly owned subsidiary of Reliance Globalcom Ltd., an enterprise of Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group.  Vanco Direct USA, which owns
Universal Access, continues to operate as normal.
 
Reliance Globalcom is a subsidiary of Reliance Communications (RCOM), India's largest integrated telecommunications service provider.
Reliance Communications is the flagship company of the Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group, which has a market capitalisation of over
US$75bn, annual cash flows of US$2.8bn, net profit of US$1.9bn and zero net debt.
 
Reliance Globalcom will integrate the Vanco business into its organisation. Vanco and Reliance have an absolute commitment to continue to
deliver and improve the service we provide to our customers. Going forward, Vanco will take advantage of Reliance Globalcom's 40 Countries
Global Service Delivery Platform comprising 77000 Kms of Submarine Cable, Data Centres, over 200 Carrier customers and significant presence
in US with 1000+ enterprise customers and world class Managed Enthernet services.
 
It is unlikely that any value will return to Vanco's shareholders.
