The finance lease is over 33 months with an initial payment of approximately £24,500 and annual repayments of approximately £72,100 will be made to SEN Capital (including interest charges of approximately £23,700).
The capital value of the computer equipment will be accounted for as an asset and a commensurate related liability will be accounted for in the Group's consolidated balance sheet. Additionally, the annual interest element of the finance leases will be expensed through the Group's accounts commencing in the financial year to 30 September 2009.

The independent directors consider, having consulted with Nasstar's nominated adviser Ambrian Partners Limited, that the terms of the arrangement are fair and reasonable insofar as its shareholders are concerned.
