In March 2017 the Company entered into an unsecured convertible loan facility
agreement (“the Facility”) with Eufingest S.A (“Eufingest”), a Swiss
investor and major shareholder in the Company. Under the Facility, Eufingest
provided a facility of €100,000 at an interest rate of 2.5 per cent per
annum. The Facility is repayable on 31 March 2017. The Facility has been drawn
down. The Company may repay the Facility early at any time without
penalty.  At any time before 31 March 2017, Eufingest may convert the
outstanding balance of the Facility into Shares at the rate of 0.80 pence per
Share.

In March 2017 the Company has reached an agreement with Eufingest S.A.
(“Eufingest”), whereby the repayment dates of EU 1,271,999 outstanding
loans including interests matured to date, have been rescheduled. The
facilities are now repayable by 31 December 2017 and carry an interest of
2.5%. At any time before 31 December 2017, Eufingest may convert the
outstanding balance at the coversion rates previously agreed.

In May 2017 the Company bought back €3.14 million of the debt of one of its
subsidiaries previously owed to three Italian banks at a 76.15 per cent
discount. This an improvement in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet of
€2.394 million, equivalent to 0.70p per share. The Company was provided with
a new convertible loan of €1.2 million from Eufingest S.A. (“Eufingest”)
to complete the debt buy-back. Including the new loan, the total of loans
drawn and outstanding with Eufingest is now €2.475 million including accrued
interest. 

The board has agreed with Eufigest to bring together all the outstanding
balances into one loan of €2.475 million repayable by 28 April 2080 (the
“Consolidated Loan”). The Consolidated Loan will carry an ianterest of 1
per cent and will be secured on the Group’s assets. At any time before 28
April 2020, the Company may repay the Consolidated loan without penalty and
Eufingest may convert the Consolidated Loan into shares at the rate of 0.89
per share.

In June 2017 the Company has been informed that the Court Prosecutor of Ivrea,
Metropolitan City of Turin, has filed a winding up request on Mediapolis srl,
the Group’s 74.67% directly owned subsidiary. In May, and before Mediapolis
srl was notified of the court hearing, Clear Leisure acquired, at a discount
from Mediapolis’s banks, a debt of €3.14m and the corresponding first
charge mortgage on the Mediapolis site. Clear Leisure also calculates that
unpaid interest on the mortgage, currently amounting to approximately €4m,
is due to it from Mediapolis srl. Under the terms of the charge, the total
amount that could be received by Clear Leisure following the disposal of the
land, is capped at €5m and, accordingly, any recovery above €5m would
first be assigned to other creditors which hold a second charge over the
property. Clear Leisure will receive an update on the Mediapolis situation at
the end of June.
