   NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION IN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES,
                           CANADA, AUSTRALIA OR JAPAN

                                   CASH OFFER

                                       BY

                          WINDSORVILLE INVESTMENTS LTD

                                      FOR

                      BULGARIAN PROPERTY DEVELOPMENTS PLC

1.                  Introduction

The Board of Directors of Windsorville announces that it will make a cash offer
of 64 pence for each Bulgarian Property Developments Share.  The Offer is final
and will not be revised or amended under any circumstances.

Windsorville is a newly-incorporated company formed specifically to make this
offer to Bulgarian Property Developments Shareholders.

The Offer values the entire issued share capital of Bulgarian Property
Developments at approximately £68.5 million.

2.                  The Offer

The Offer, which will be subject to the conditions set out in Appendix 1 to this
announcement and the terms set out in the Offer Document and the Form of
Acceptance, will be made on the following basis:
           for each Bulgarian Property Developments Share 64 pence in cash

The Offer values the entire issued share capital of Bulgarian Property
Developments at approximately £68.5 million.  The Offer is final and will not be
amended or revised under any circumstances.

The Offer represents a premium of:

*   11.8 per cent. to the Closing Price of 57.25 pence for each Bulgarian
    Property Developments Share on 18 September 2007, the last business day 
    prior to the commencement of the Offer Period; and

*   11.4 per cent. to the average Closing Price of approximately 57.5 pence for
    each Bulgarian Property Developments Share for the one month period ended 
    18 September 2007.

The Bulgarian Property Developments Shares to be acquired pursuant to the Offer
will be acquired fully paid and free from all liens, equities, charges,
encumbrances, rights of pre-emption and any other third party rights or
interests whatsoever and together with all rights now or hereafter attaching
thereto, including voting rights and, without limitation, the right to receive
and retain in full all dividends and other distributions (if any) declared, made
or paid on or after the date of this announcement.

3.                  Background to and reasons for the Offer

In the current market environment, many listed property companies are trading at
significant discounts to their stated net asset values.  The Board of
Windsorville believes that the Bulgarian property market represents an
attractive long-term investment opportunity.  However, with prevailing market
conditions, the Board of Windsorville believes that the Offer represents an
attractive opportunity for Bulgarian Property Developments Shareholders to
receive a full cash exit in respect of their holdings of Bulgarian Property
Developments Shares at a significant premium to Bulgarian Property Developments'
average share price during the period immediately prior to the commencement of
the Offer Period.

Windsorville intends that an acquisition of Bulgarian Property Developments will
serve as a platform for further investment in the region and possibly broader
investment into Eastern Europe.  Windsorville currently has no intention to
redeploy Bulgarian Property Developments' fixed assets or employees, should the
Offer be successful.

4.                  Market purchases

On 19 September 2007, Windsorville acquired 26,031,818 Bulgarian Property
Developments Shares, representing approximately 24.4 per cent. of the issued
share capital of Bulgarian Property Developments, at a price of 64 pence for
each Bulgarian Property Developments Share.

Windsorville has made subsequent market purchases of 815,000 Bulgarian Property
Developments Shares at a price of between 63.25 and 64 pence for each Bulgarian
Property Developments Share.  Therefore, in total, Windsorville has acquired
26,846,818 Bulgarian Property Developments Shares, representing 25.1 per cent.
of the issued share capital of Bulgarian Property Developments.

5.                   Information on Windsorville

Windsorville was incorporated on 12 September 2006 in The Bahamas.  It has not
traded prior to making the Offer.  The registered office of Windsorville is Cape
Horn Management Ltd., P.O. BOX N-7776, E.P. Taylor Drive, Lyford Cay, New
Providence, The Bahamas.

6.                  Information on Bulgarian Property Developments

Bulgarian Property Developments primarily focuses on the purchasing of small
plots of land and consolidating them into large sites suitable for commercial
development. Bulgarian Property Developments' ordinary share capital was
admitted to trading on AIM in January 2005.

Bulgarian Property Developments employs approximately 480 employees.

For the year ended 30 June 2007, Bulgarian Property Developments reported
revenues of £483,000 (2006: nil) and a loss on ordinary activities before
taxation of £979,000 (2006: profit of £38,000).  Net assets as at 30 June 2007
were £56,850,000 (2006: £36,825,000).

7.                  Management and employees

Windsorville intends that the existing employment rights, including pension
rights, of all employees of Bulgarian Property Developments will be safeguarded,
should the Offer be successful.

Windsorville currently has no intention to change the place of employment for
any Bulgarian Property Developments management or employees.

8.                  Option holders

The Offer is being extended to any Bulgarian Property Developments Shares which
are issued or unconditionally allotted and fully paid (or credited as fully
paid) while the Offer remains open for acceptance (or, subject to the Code, by
such earlier date as Windsorville may decide), including Bulgarian Property
Developments Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of options.

If the Offer becomes or is declared unconditional in all respects, to the extent
options remain unexercised or have not lapsed, Windsorville will make
appropriate proposals to those option holders in due course.

9.                  Financing of the Offer

The Offer will be financed from Windsorville's existing cash resources.

Citi is satisfied that Windsorville has the necessary financial resources
available to satisfy full acceptance of the Offer.  Full acceptance of the
Offer, after deducting the value of the Bulgarian Property Developments Shares
already owned by Windsorville, would involve a maximum cash payment by
Windsorville of approximately £51.4 million.

10.              Compulsory acquisition, de-listing and cancellation of
admission to trading

Upon the Offer becoming or being declared unconditional in all respects and
sufficient acceptances having been received, Windsorville intends to apply the
provisions of sections 979 to 991 (inclusive) of the Companies Act 2006 to
acquire compulsorily the remaining Bulgarian Property Developments Shares on the
same terms as the Offer.

Subject to: (a) Windsorville acquiring 75 per cent. of the issued share capital
of Bulgarian Property Developments and/or (b) the proposed cancellation being
agreed by the shareholders of Bulgarian Property Developments in a general
meeting in accordance with the AIM Rules, Windsorville intends to procure that
Bulgarian Property Developments applies to the London Stock Exchange for the
cancellation of admission to trading of Bulgarian Property Developments Shares
on AIM.

The cancellation of admission to trading of Bulgarian Property Developments
Shares would significantly reduce the liquidity and marketability of any
Bulgarian Property Developments Shares not assented to the Offer.

11.              Offer Document and Form of Acceptance

The Offer Document and Form of Acceptance will be posted to Bulgarian Property
Developments Shareholders shortly, although the Offer is not being made,
directly or indirectly, in or into the United States, Canada, Australia or
Japan.

If you are in any doubt as to the action you should take, you are recommended to
consult your stockbroker, bank manager, solicitor, accountant or other
independent financial adviser duly authorised under the Financial Services and
Markets Act 2000 if you are resident in the United Kingdom or, if not, from
another appropriately authorised independent financial adviser.

12.              General

Save as disclosed in paragraph 4 above, neither Windsorville, nor any of its
directors, nor to the best of Windsorville's knowledge and belief, any person
acting in concert with Windsorville is interested in or has any rights to
subscribe for any Bulgarian Property Developments Shares or has borrowed or lent
any Bulgarian Property Developments Shares nor does any such person have any
short position whether conditional or absolute and whether in the money or
otherwise (including a short position under a derivative) or any arrangement in
relation to Bulgarian Property Developments Shares.  For these purposes
"interest" includes any long economic exposure, whether conditional or absolute,
to changes in the price of securities and a person is treated as having an
"interest" by virtue of the ownership or control of securities or by virtue of
any options (including traded options) in respect of, or derivative referenced
to, securities and "arrangement" includes any agreement to sell or any delivery
obligation or right to require another person to purchase or take delivery of
Bulgarian Property Developments Shares and also includes any indemnity or option
arrangement, any agreement or understanding, formal or informal, of whatever
nature relating to Bulgarian Property Developments Shares which may be an
inducement to deal or refrain from dealing in such securities.
