Trading Update

At the AGM, the board gave an update as to the financial resources available to the Company and the approximate breakdown of this is set out in the table below.

The net financial resources expected to be available to the Group based on the above are consistent with those previously announced on 15 June 2012, being approximately £1.475m, after the deduction of contractual payments in relation to notice periods and anticipated expenses in connection with assigning the lease on the Company's premises.

The VAT recoverable is expected to be received during the quarter ending 30 September 2012. The deferred consideration from PLUS Trading Solutions Limited is payable as per the terms set out in the Company's announcement of 15 June 2012, i.e. over a period of up to 9 months.

Shareholders should note that the actual level of net financial resources available to the Group will be subject to ongoing reduction by expenses relating to maintaining the Company's quoted status on AIM, including Board costs, and other amounts relating to existing operations. The above amounts are forward looking estimates and are therefore subject to revision, including without limitation by the occurrence of unforeseen events.

Appointment of Director

PLUS Markets Group plc announces that it in accordance with Amara Dhari Investments Limited's ("ADIL") shareholders agreement with the Company, dated 4 September 2009 (the "Shareholder Agreement"), Mr. Donald Strang has been appointed as a non-executive director to the board of the Company with immediate effect.

Mr. Strang (aged 44) is a qualified chartered accountant with over 20 years' experience in financial management, predominantly within the natural resources sector. He was previously the finance director for Brinkley Mining plc and Leni Gas and Oil plc and has held positions with Ernst & Young and Deutsche Bank AG.

To enable the board of PLUS and its wholly owned regulated subsidiary PLUS Derivatives Exchange Limited ("PLUS-DX") to be satisfied that the FSA approval requirements are met, Mr. Strang has executed a deed of undertaking in favour of PLUS and PLUS-DX providing that he will not (as a director of PLUS) exert any influence over the business and affairs of PLUS-DX. Specifically he will not either directly or indirectly:

i. influence the operations of PLUS-DX,

ii. take an active role in the running of PLUS-DX,

iii. have a significant influence in setting and monitoring PLUS-DX's business strategy; or

iv. have responsibilities such as scrutinising the approach of the management, performance or standards of PLUS-DX.

Mr. Strang has been appointed under the Shareholder Agreement and is a nominee of ADIL.

Mr. Donald Ian George Layman Strang

There is no further information in respect to Mr. Strang that is required to be disclosed in accordance with schedule 2(g) of the AIM Rules for Companies.

Following the results of resolutions 1, 2 and 5 and the appointment of Mr. Strang above, the Company now has two directors, Nicholas Smith and Donald Strang.

Investing Policy

At the general meeting held on 18 June 2012, the shareholders considered and approved an investing policy for the Company to wind up the Company and distribute any residual cash to Shareholders.

The Company will make further announcements as appropriate.
