I also hold CTV through a Selftrade nominee acct. and I was also called at home asking about my decision on the t/o.


Does anyone know when we actually get our money from the take over bid ?


PS> assuming it was selftrade that gave privy information to a third party, has anyone taken any action or reported the situation to a regulator or otherwise ?


EDIT - just read that this seems to have already been raised a few posts back ... think this could be worth informing the regulator - selftrade seem to have acted with gross negligence.

CNG Travel Group plc


CNG Travel Group plc ("CNG" or "the Company")

On 22 May 2007, Corporate Travel Holdings, Inc. ('CTH') announced a firm
intention to make a recommended offer for CNG at 14.5 pence per CNG Share.

On 31 May 2007, the Company announced that it had received indicative proposals
from two parties (the 'Potential Offerors'). Each of the proposals was at an
indicative price which would trigger the undertaking by CTH shareholders
to accept a competing offer of at least 16.5 pence per CNG Share, or increase
the price payable pursuant to their offer to a level above the competing offer.

On 14 June 2007, CNG announced that, having concluded its review, one of the
Potential Offerors did not intend to make an offer for the Company.


The remaining Potential Offeror has now informed CNG that it is not in a
position to proceed and will not make an offer for the Company.


In the absence of any improved offer, the Independent Directors continue to
recommend the cash offer by CTH of 14.5 pence per CNG Share, the closing date
for which is 3.00p.m. on 4 July 2007.


The holder of 1% or more of any relevant securities in the Company may have
disclosure obligations under Rule 8.3 of the Irish Takeover Panel Act, 1997,
Takeover Rules 2001 to 2006, as applied.


A further announcement will be made in due course.

May 31, 2007, Travel Agent

A bid made by Tzell Travel Group's shareholders to buy back Tzell Travel from CNG Travel Group is expected to be approved this month. The $18 million buyout bid is pending acceptance from at least 80 percent of shareholders at CNG, which is based in Ireland. In a recent sit-down with Travel Agent, Barry Liben, president and CEO of Tzell Travel, said he was a leading force behind the buyout offer. "We're all very excited about it," he said, adding that he and his management team sold Tzell in 2003 because it made good economic sense at the time. "But [running the company as a non-owner] didn't have the same feeling for me. We want to bring it home." After taking the company private again, Liben said he plans to continue growing Tzell Travel Group, which is the fourth-largest travel agency in the U.S. Tzell currently has offices throughout Manhattan and branch locations in 10 states, including the recently acquired California-based travel entertainment company, All-Star Travel Group...

Interesting that CTV have yet to even mention that 'All-Star' transaction. It seems that nothing about Tzell is ever passed on to CTV shareholders (the smaller ones, anyway) save the final summary trading numbers...

Hopefully someone else can help, today's announcement shows that 60,500 shares were sold on Friday at a price of 30.52p, so does that is mean that this could potentially be a price one of the potentials is willing to pay?

I expect Finbarr is one of the "Potential Offerors", it wouldn't supprise me. Hopefully it'll drive the share price up a few more pence. I wonder how much has been indicatively offered ? Find out soon hopefully.

CNG Travel Group plc



CNG Travel Group plc ("CNG" or "the Company")


On 22 May 2007 the Independent Directors of CNG and the board of directors of
Corporate Travel Holdings, Inc. ('CTH') announced the terms of a recommended
cash offer for the entire issued and to be issued share capital of CNG by CTH of
14.5 pence per CNG Share.

Since the announcement of the proposed acquisition by CTH, the Independent
Directors have received indicative proposals from two parties (the "Potential
Offerors") regarding possible offers for CNG. Each of the proposals is at an
indicative price which would trigger the undertaking by CTH shareholders to
accept a competing offer of at least 16.5 pence per CNG Share, or increase the
price payable pursuant to their offer to a level above the competing offer. The
proposals are very preliminary in nature and subject to, inter alia, due
diligence.

Having reviewed the indicative proposals, the Independent Directors determined
that, subject to agreeing appropriate confidentiality arrangements, they will
provide these parties with access to due diligence and to senior management.

This statement is being made by the Company without prior agreement with the
Potential Offerors and there can be no certainty whether any offer will be made,
nor as to the terms on which any offer might be made. Consequently, the
Independent Directors continue to recommend the offer by CTH.

The holder of 1% or more of any relevant securities in the Company may have
disclosure obligations under Rule 8.3 of the Irish Takeover Panel Act, 1997,
Takeover Rules 2001 to 2006, as applied.

A further announcement will be made in due course.

Assessment ... we get a single day's notice, and an RNS that goes on about the recent share price movement (which had been ZILCH!!!!)
Just feels wrong somewhere, but resigned to being unable to do diddly about it.
Posted at 22/5/2007 15:59 by the drewster
Course they will - we get one day's notice "in response to the recent movement in the comapny share price" ... what movement was that then?

A day later, there's the cash offer, which the boys acting for us managed to talk up 8%

And then the little snippets like the directors actually having a pice of the lucrative pie that will be left start coming out.

Amazing that there doesn't have to be significantly more transparency about these things, as it leaves a pretty bitter taste.

Cng Travel Statement re. poss. offer


RNS Number:9913W
CNG Travel Group plc

21 May 2007


For Immediate Release


CNG Travel Group plc


Statement re Possible Offer


The Board of CNG Travel Group plc ("CNG" or the "Company") ("the Board") notes
the recent movement in the Company's share price. The Board confirms that it has
received an approach from a consortium ("the Consortium") led by PJ King and
Barry Liben, the group chief executive and president of Tzell Travel Group (a
wholly owned subsidiary of CNG) respectively, which may or may not lead to an
offer for the Company at a price of 14.5 pence per CNG Share (the "Possible
Offer").

Following the approach, the Company constituted an independent committee of the
board of directors comprising Luke Mooney, Ralph Manaker and Zara Stassin ("the
Independent Directors") to consider the Possible Offer. The Independent
Directors are being advised by IBI Corporate Finance. The executive directors of
the Company (namely PJ King and Willie Lynch) together with certain
non-executive directors (Seamus Ross Jnr and Michael Smurfit Jnr) are conflicted
from considering the Possible Offer because of their involvement with the
Consortium.

Should an announcement of a firm intention to make an offer be made pursuant to
Rule 2.5 of the Irish Takeover Panel Act, 1997, Takeover Rules 2001 to 2006 the
proposed offer price of 14.5 pence per share is at a level which the Independent
Directors would intend to recommend to shareholders.

However, shareholders should note that while discussions with the Consortium in
relation to the Possible Offer are at a very advanced stage there can be no
certainty that an offer will ultimately be forthcoming.

The holder of 1% or more of any relevant securities in the Company may from the
date of this announcement have disclosure obligations under Rule 8.3 of the Irish
Takeover Panel Act, 1997, Takeover Rules 2001 to 2006, as applied.

A further announcement will be made in due course. In the meantime, shareholders
are advised to take no action.


Ends.

We can't be to far from an encouraging update on this company. Just re-read the statements for previous interim and full year results. I had forgotten how frank and honest the statements were with regard to previous mistakes. I had also forgotten just how many shares the current directors were holding between them:

P J King (our current CEO, appointed after the previous disasters) has

627,644 shares - (563,043 he was holding as at the end of 2004). This means he has an actual paper loss of over half a million pounds to recover. He also has options of 724,112 which are not 'back in the money' until north of 60p. Plus another 100,000 excercisable @ 103p.

Shamus Ross Jr. is on the board tasked with recovering Ross Family money of almost £20m. They have 18,840,258 shares , which have been held since before the end of 2004. They lost it all once but were bailed out by the floatation when they were 'awarded' these shares for the dubious late repayment of a previous loan to a pre flaotation CNG. However, history does not change the fact they need their money back. I am sure he and the family are very committed to recovering value.

Michael .W. Smurfitt Jr. is also on the board tasked with recovering value on 2,908,984 shares held by his Dad Dr Smurfitt since before the end of 2004. They too are nursing a multi million pound paper loss. Again, I am sure his interest is one of ensuring no repeat of previous mistakes , no reckles gambles and sure footed prudent recovery in business value and share price.

Zara Stassin is holding 568,640 shares (536,960 of which pre date the end of 2004). Again, an active board member nursing a paper loss of around half a million pounds.

Luke Mooney holds 167,241 shares (153,780 of which pre date end 2004). £135,000 is not an inconsiderable paper loss to be sat on.


My point here is: Despite my extreme discontent with the historical way in which this company was previously run and my dissappointment with the way the 2004yr AGM was held in 2005, I consider that these people have very real intrests in restoring shareholder value and that this year could very well show that this is to be a reality, through the prudent growth of Tzell.

I also think it unlikely that any further asset stripping has or would take place here because it would require the collusion of the whole board and would be very obvious and public.

This compmay is now a simple play on Tzell and I reckon could well now be seriously under valued.

Any other thoughts...............?
