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,

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.
