Further Disclosures Regarding Directors' Appointments
Speymill Macau Property Company plc (AIM:MCAU), the Macau focused property investment company quoted on AIM, makes the following disclosures further to the announcement made on 21 July 2009 regarding, inter alia, the appointments of Filip Montfort and Yarden Mariuma.
Mr Montfort has subsequently notified the Company of the following additional companies of which he has been a director within the past five years:
Beogradelektro a.d.
Kazakhstan Investment Fund
Arch Holdings (BVI) Limited
Mr Mariuma has also advised the company that in January 1999, as part of his role at Quadrant Group, Romania, he was appointed to the board of Ceroc SA, a company in severe financial difficulty, in an attempt to restore its fortunes. By 2003, it became clear that the financial position of the Ceroc SA was too severe and the company was put into liquidation. Mr Mariuma has advised the Company that a subsequent Romanian court ruling confirmed that the bankruptcy was not the fault of Mr Mariuma or the board he served on.
The information set out above is required to be notified pursuant to paragraph (g) of Schedule 2 of the AIM Rules for Companies. There are no further disclosures required.

Notes to editors:
Speymill Macau Property Company plc ("Speymill Macau" or the "Company")
- Speymill Macau was incorporated and registered in the Isle of Man on 31 October 2006 and is a closed-end investment company registered in the Isle of Man and traded on AIM, a market of the London Stock Exchange.
- The Company was established to invest primarily in the Macau property market. This includes pursuing selective commercial property investments to capture expected ancillary Macau service sector growth. The Company was admitted to AIM on 17 November 2006 raising US$ 80 million in a placing on admission. A second fundraising of US$ 70 million was completed in May 2007. The Company's objective is to provide shareholders with an attractive overall return to be achieved primarily through long-term capital growth.
- Macau is one of only two Special Economic Regions, a semi-autonomous administrative area, in China, and has enjoyed explosive economic growth, in part due to its establishment as an important gambling centre which has led to high historical and forecast GDP growth, driven by rising incomes and low unemployment levels. Coupled with the limited availability of land, developers are now struggling to meet a stronger than anticipated demand for higher quality housing. The Company intends to exploit these favourable market dynamics with the aim of generating attractive overall returns for shareholders.
Speymill Property Group Limited ("SPG") is the Manager of the Company and the Investment Adviser is Speymill Property Group (Far East) Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of SPG.
