Result of Creditors and Shareholders meetings

Southern Cross announces that, as previously notified, meetings have taken place at which Creditors and Shareholders considered the proposed Company Voluntary Arrangements (CVAs) under Part I of the Insolvency Act 1986 for all of the recently active entities in the Group.

At the meeting of Creditors held on 20 June 2012 a majority of in excess of 99% by value of the voting Creditors of each Group company approved the CVAs which now come into effect. Richard Fleming and Howard Smith of KPMG LLP have been confirmed as Joint Supervisors of the CVAs.

In a subsequent meeting, in excess of 99% of the shareholders of the Company attending the meeting in person or by proxy approved its CVA

Further details of the outcome of the meetings may shortly be found on the Company's website: www.schealthcare.co.uk.

The objective of the CVAs is to render all companies in the Group solvent by compromising their liabilities with the agreement of their creditors. This results in a small dividend to creditors, following which the companies will be dissolved.
