                        RECONSTRUCTION CAPITAL II LIMITED

                      INTERIM UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                  For the period 1 January 2007 to 30 June 2007


                     INVESTMENT MANAGER AND ADVISER REPORT

On 30th June 2007, Reconstruction Capital II Limited ("RC2" or the "Company")
had a total net asset value excluding minority interest of EUR 93.6 million or
EUR 1.4398 per share, a 49.6% year-on-year increase, the combined result of a
596.5% increase in EUR terms of Albalact's share price as well as an overall
increase in the market prices of shares held under the Trading Programme (+84.6%
above cost at the end of June). On 30th June 2007, 35.3% of RC2's net assets
consisted of listed equities, 23.2% was held in private equity positions, 7.1%
was held in fixed income securities and the remaining 34.4% was held in cash.

As explained in note 3, the net asset figures and the results presented in the
interim financial statements are not fully compliant with IFRS.

The Company operates two investment programmes, a Private Equity Programme which
is focused on acquiring and disposing of significant or controlling stakes in
companies, and a Trading Programme which focuses on portfolio investments in
listed equities and fixed income securities.

Under the Trading Programme, the Investment Manager had invested approximately
EUR 18.0 million in listed equities by the end of June 2007, which had a total
market value of EUR 33.1 million. Of this, 78.7% was held in Romanian equities
while the balance of 21.3% was held in Bulgarian equities. As at 30th June 2007,
the increase in value over cost of the equity holdings held under the Trading
Programme (+ 84.6%) is significantly better than the overall performance of the
Romanian EUR denominated index since RC2 started investing at the end of January
2006 (+37.9%). At the end of June 2007, RC2's listed equities portfolio was
divided amongst companies operating in the following industries: financial
services (62.6%), building materials (13.2%), engineering (12.7%), industrials
(5.4%), utilities (3.5%), oil&gas (1.8%) and others (0.8%).

Under the Private Equity Programme, the Company effected two new private equity
investments of EUR 3 million in the first half of 2007: it acquired a 92.3%
shareholding in Top Factoring, a Romanian receivables collection business, and a
33.3% shareholding in the Romar Group, a Romanian private medical services
business. A 13.4% shareholding in the dairy company Albalact, the first
investment made by RC2 under the Private Equity Programme, was valued at EUR
15.8 million at the end of June 2007. In the first half of 2007, RC2 sold a 3.4%
stake in Albalact for EUR 3.8 million (279.0% above cost).

The Investment Manager and Investment Adviser intend to start investing in
Serbia in the second half of 2007 and are continuing to identify a number of
interesting potential investments in Romania and Bulgaria.

           INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO RECONSTRUCTION CAPITAL II LTD

Introduction

We have been instructed by the company to review the financial information for
the period ended 30 June 2007 which comprise the consolidated income statement,
consolidated balance sheet, consolidated statement of changes in equity,
consolidated cash flow statement and the related notes and we have read the
other information contained in the interim report and considered whether it
contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the
financial information.

Our report has been prepared in accordance with the terms of our engagement to
assist the company in meeting the requirements of the rules of the London Stock
Exchange for companies trading securities on the Alternative Investment Market
and for no other purpose. No person is entitled to rely on this report unless
such a person is a person entitled to rely upon this report by virtue of and for
the purpose of our terms of engagement or has been expressly authorised to do so
by our prior written consent. Save as above, we do not accept responsibility for
this report to any other person or for any other purpose and we hereby expressly
disclaim any and all such liability.

Directors' responsibilities

The interim report, including the financial information contained therein, is
the responsibility of, and has been approved by the directors. The directors are
responsible for preparing the interim report in accordance with the rules of the
London Stock Exchange for companies trading securities on the Alternative
Investment Market which require that the half-yearly report be presented and
prepared in a form consistent with that which will be adopted in the company's
annual accounts having regard to the accounting standards applicable to such
annual accounts.

Review work performed

We conducted our review in accordance with guidance contained in Bulletin 1999/4
issued by the Auditing Practices Board. A review consists principally of making
enquiries of group management and applying analytical procedures to the
financial information and underlying financial data and based thereon, assessing
whether the accounting policies and presentation have been consistently applied
unless otherwise disclosed. A review excludes audit procedures such as tests of
controls and verification of assets, liabilities and transactions. It is
substantially less in scope than an audit performed in accordance with
International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and therefore provides a
lower level of assurance than an audit. Accordingly we do not express an audit
opinion on the financial information.

Review conclusion

The company has a investment that is designated at fair value through the profit
and loss account that is stated on the balance sheet at a cost of Euro3,000,000. In
accordance with IAS 39, this investment should be stated at fair value. As
disclosed in note 3, due to the short time scale between the acquisition of the
associate and the date of these interim financial statements, the directors were
unable to obtain full information on the financial position of the investment at
30 June 2007. Consequently, the investment has not been accounted for at fair
value and has been included in the financial statements at cost.

On the basis of our review, with the exception of the matter described in the
preceeding paragraph, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the financial information as presented for the six months ended 30
June 2007.

              NOTES TO THE INTERIM UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Establishment

Reconstruction Capital II Limited was incorporated on 17 October 2005 in the
Cayman Islands as a closed ended company created to invest in private and listed
equity and fixed income securities, including convertible and other mezzanine
instruments, primarily in Romania and Bulgaria. The Company was listed on AIM on
23 December 2005 and commenced investing activities on 27 January 2006.These
financial statements show the results of the Group for the first six months of
2007.

The Company intends to generate returns for its Shareholders through two primary
routes: to achieve medium and long term capital appreciation through the
investment in and subsequent disposal of significant or controlling stakes in
companies, both listed and private, established and/or operating primarily in
Romania and Bulgaria (the Private Equity Programme), and to make portfolio
investments in listed equities and fixed income securities, including
convertible and other mezzanine instruments, issued primarily by Romanian and
Bulgarian entities (the Trading Programme).

The main focus of the Company is investments in Romania and Bulgaria. However,
the Company reserves the right to make investments into neighbouring countries,
notably Ukraine, Serbia, Montenegro, Moldova, Croatia, Albania and the Former
Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. It is currently anticipated that in the medium
term the Company will invest approximately 70 per cent of its assets in Romania
and approximately 30 per cent of its assets in Bulgaria and neighbouring
countries

2. Basis of Preparation

The interim results were approved by the directors on 27 September 2007. The
interim results have been prepared in accordance with International Financial
Reporting standards (IFRS) as adopted for use in the European Union and are not
audited but have been subjected to a limited review by the auditors of
Reconstruction Capital II Limited. As permitted, the unaudited interim financial
statements have not been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial
Reporting".

3. Acquisitions

On 24 May 2007 Reconstruction Capital II (Cyprus) Ltd, a 100% subsidiary of
Reconstruction Capital II Ltd, acquired 92.31 % of Top Factoring, a receivables
collection company, incorporated in Romania. As such the investment is
consolidated in accordance with IFRS3 Business combinations.

On 19 June 2007 Reconstruction Capital II Ltd acquired 33.33% of the Romar Group
("Romar") . Romar is one of the largest providers of private health care
services in Romania and is the market leader in the provision of occupational
health services. It includes the following five operating entities: Centrul
Medical Romar (operating 12 clinics and two laboratories in Bucharest), Romar
Diagnostic Center (operating 2 clinics), Medimar Diagnostic (operating a clinic
in Iasi and a laboratory), Romar Clinic (operating a clinic and laboratory in
Constanta) and SGL Management & Consulting (which owns and rents out medical
equipment to Medimar Diagnostic and Romar Clinic).

Due to the short time scale between the acquisition and the date the interim
Financial Statements were prepared the Company was unable to include full
information on the financial position of Romar as at 30 June 2007. Consequently,
the investment has been included in the Financial Statements at cost instead of
at fair value.
