• ready for investment without the need for material re-structuring by the Company;
• generating positive cash flows or imminently likely to do so;
• via an injection of new finances or specialist management, the Company can enhance the prospects and therefore the future value of the investment;
• able to benefit from the Proposed Directors existing network of contacts; and
• the potential to deliver significant returns for the Company.

The Company will focus on opportunities within a range of high growth sectors worldwide such as natural resources, technology and life sciences.

Moreover, the criteria set out above are not intended to be exhaustive and the Proposed Directors may make an investment which does not fulfil any or all of the investment criteria if they believe it is in the best interests of Shareholders as a whole.

Where the Company builds a portfolio of related assets it is possible that there may be cross-holdings between such assets. The Company does not currently intend to fund any investments with debt or other borrowings but may do so if appropriate.

Investments may be made in all types of assets and there will be no investment restrictions.

The Company's primary objective is that of securing for the Shareholders the best possible value consistent with achieving, over time, both capital growth and income for Shareholders through developing profitability coupled with dividend payments on a sustainable basis.

Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the 895,237,295 new ordinary shares to be admitted to trading on AIM. Trading in these shares is expected to commence on or around 8.00 am on 19 November 2013. The new ordinary shares will rank pari passu with the existing ordinary shares.

Appointment of Broker

The Company announces that Peterhouse Corporate Finance Limited has been appointed as sole broker with immediate effect.

Investing Policy

The Company's proposed Investing Policy is that the Company will either acquire or invest in a business or businesses which have some or all of the following characteristics:

• strong management with a proven track record;
• ready for investment without the need for material re-structuring by the Company;
• generating positive cash flows or imminently likely to do so;
• via an injection of new finances or specialist management, the Company can enhance the prospects and therefore the future value of the investment;
• able to benefit from the Proposed Directors existing network of contacts; and
• the potential to deliver significant returns for the Company.

The Company will focus on opportunities within a range of high growth sectors worldwide such as natural resources, technology and life sciences.

Moreover, the criteria set out above are not intended to be exhaustive and the Proposed Directors may make an investment which does not fulfil any or all of the investment criteria if they believe it is in the best interests of Shareholders as a whole.

Whilst the Proposed Directors will be principally focused on making an investment in private businesses, they would not rule out investment in listed businesses if this presents, in their judgment, the best opportunity for Shareholders.

The Company intends to be an active investor in situations where the Company can make a clear contribution to the progress and development of the investment. In respect of other, more substantial investment opportunities, the Proposed Directors expect that the Company will be more of a passive investor.

The Proposed Directors believe that their broad collective experience together with their extensive network of contacts will assist them in the identification, evaluation and funding of appropriate investment opportunities. When necessary, other external professionals will be engaged to assist in the due diligence on prospective targets and their management teams. The Proposed Directors will also consider appointing additional directors with relevant experience if required.

There will be no limit on the number of projects into which the Company may invest, and the Company's financial resources may be invested in a number of propositions or in just one investment, which may be deemed to be a reverse takeover pursuant to Rule 14 of the AIM Rules. Where the Company builds a portfolio of related assets it is possible that there may be cross-holdings between such assets. The Company does not currently intend to fund any investments with debt or other borrowings but may do so if appropriate.

Investments may be made in all types of assets and there will be no investment restrictions.

The Company's primary objective is that of securing for the Shareholders the best possible value consistent with achieving, over time, both capital growth and income for Shareholders through developing profitability coupled with dividend payments on a sustainable basis.

Change of Rule 26 website address

To reflect the Company's new name its Rule 26 website address will change to www.ducatventures.co.uk when the Company receives its change of name certificate, until that time the Company's Rule 26 website address will remain as www.ceresmediaplc.com.

Total Voting Rights

In accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules (DTR 5.6.1R) the Company hereby notifies the market that immediately following Admission its issued share capital will consist of 895,237,295 ordinary shares of £0.0001. The Company does not hold any shares in treasury.
