                               Eleksen Group plc
                          ('Eleksen' or 'the Company')



4 October 2007

The Board of Eleksen announces that it intends this morning to appoint
administrators to the Company and has requested that trading in its ordinary
shares be suspended with immediate effect.

On 28 August 2007, Eleksen released a trading statement and stated that the
Company was in need of further funding.  Subsequently, on 21 September 2007,
Eleksen provided a further update in its interim results for six months to 30
June 2007.  The announcement made clear the pressing need for further funding,
which might or might not be forthcoming, and also highlighted potential going
concerns issues.  Since this time the directors have vigorously explored
the available options.  The directors have now concluded with regret that there
are no proposals which offer sufficient certainty of raising additional funding
within an acceptable timescale and therefore there is no alternative but to
appoint administrators.

Consequently, the Company has requested that the London Stock Exchange plc
suspend trading in its shares with immediate effect.
