Bramdean Alternatives Limited (the "Company") 
Statement from the Board 
In view of the substantial amount of recent press 
comment about the Company with statements attributed to Mr Vincent Tchenguiz and 
Jennifer Wick of Consensus Business Group Limited claiming that Elsina has 
support for its requisition announced on Friday 1 May from over 50 per cent of 
the Company's shareholders, the Company's legal advisers have today sent a 
letter to Elsina (copied, inter alia, to their financial advisers KBC Peel Hunt 
and Consensus Business Group) requesting written confirmation of this 
support. 
 
 At a meeting at the offices of KBC Peel Hunt on 28 April 2009 
attended by Cenkos Securities, KBC Peel Hunt ,Consensus Business Group and Brian 
Larcombe (the Chairman of the Company) the Company was advised that Elsina had 
"written undertakings of support " from over 50 per cent of the shareholders for 
their requisition. 
 
Despite requests to Elsina's advisers to substantiate 
these statements in writing the Company has to date received no such written 
confirmation. In its announcement on 1 May 2009 Elsina only stated that it "has 
received written undertakings that, when taken together with its own interest in 
the shares of the Company, represent a significant proportion of the total 
voting rights in the Company to vote in favour of all the resolutions to be put 
to shareholders".

Dealing Disclosure Requirements:- 
 
Under the provisions of Rule 8.3 of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the 
"Code"), if any person is, or becomes, "interested" (directly or indirectly) in 
one per cent. or more of any class of "relevant securities" of the Company, all 
"dealings" in any "relevant securities" of that company (including by means of 
an option in respect of, or a derivative referenced to, any such relevant 
securities) must be publicly disclosed by no later than 3.30pm (London time) on 
the London business day following the date of the relevant transaction. 
 
 
This requirement will continue until the date on which any offer becomes, or is 
declared, unconditional as to acceptances, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn or 
on which the "offer period" otherwise ends. If two or more persons act together 
pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, to 
acquire an "interest" in "relevant securities" of the Company, they will be 
deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3. 
 
 
Under the provisions of Rule 8.1 of the Code, all "dealings" in "relevant 
securities" of the Company by the Company or by the potential offeror, or by any 
of their respective "associates", must be disclosed by no later than 12.00 noon 
(London time) on the London business day following the date of the relevant 
transaction. 
 
 
A disclosure table, giving details of the companies in whose "relevant 
securities" "dealings" should be disclosed, and the number of such securities in 
issue, can be found on the UK Panel on Takeovers and Mergers' (the "Panel") 
website at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk. 
 
 
"Interests in securities" arise, in summary, when a person has long economic 
exposure, whether conditional or absolute, to changes in the price of 
securities. In particular, a person will be treated as having an "interest" by 
virtue of the ownership or control of securities, or by virtue of any option in 
respect of, or derivative referenced to, securities. 
 
 
Terms in quotation marks are defined in the Code, which can also be found on the 
Panel's website. If you are in any doubt as to whether or not you are required 
to disclose a "dealing" under Rule 8, you should consult the Panel.
