("Sivota" or the "Company")
Apester's bankruptcy
Sivota has been informed by the board of Apester Limited ("Apester"), its majority owned subsidiary in Israel, that due to a deterioration in trading performance it can no longer proceed as a going concern, and following legal advice, Apester has taken the decision to file for bankruptcy. It is expected that the bankruptcy hearing will occur later this month in Tel Aviv. At this point, Sivota cannot assess what recovery it will make in respect of its investment in Apester, but that recovery is not expected to be material. As a result, the Board currently expects to write the carrying value of its investment in Apester to zero. Apester is the sole investment of the Company.
