includes taking on 65 staff from scope seven,

Application will be made to London Stock Exchange plc for the Placing Shares to be admitted to
trading on AIM. It is expected that, subject to the passing of the relevant Resolutions at the AGM,
Admission will become effective on 28th August 2007.

zoo will be paying 2.4 million for some assets (less than 40%) of scope seven which have a value
of just over 1 million,
i suppose this is the price they are paying in the hope it will bring in more business.

08 October 2007:
DGP Sign On For ZOOtech Service

DGP, the Soho based Digital post production and New Media Facility, has announced the signing of an exclusive affiliation agreement with ZOOtech to offer production services based on its DVD Authoring System in the UK.
The software has already proven itself, with a number of major studios in Los Angeles embracing ZOOtechs ground-breaking solutions. These range from the automation of the DVD authoring process - previously a very labour intensive function - to the regionalisation of DVD menus and printed materials.

In developing its range of innovative software products ZOOtech has analysed the production workflow and clearly differentiated the underlying programming structure from the content itself. This has enabled ZOOtech to develop products that offer automation whilst maintaining full creative freedom for the designer and author to produce unique and strongly branded titles.

The systems introduce significant efficiencies into the production process, as well as greater flexibility to accommodate changes, whilst at the same time delivering substantial cost savings to the client.

Commenting on the new agreement, Julian Day, Managing Director of DGP said Our marketplace is changing fast. Clients are continually looking for more efficient ways to reduce costs and produce their work more effectively. By collaborating with ZOOtech, we are perfectly positioned to exploit our knowledge and experience of the international DVD market, and pass on the potential savings to our clients. In addition, we will have access to ZOOs upcoming solutions for reduced production times across other areas of our business which include DVD menu regionalisation and the adaptation of printed and promotional materials.

Gordon Doran, President of ZOOtech, added We are delighted that DGP has chosen ZOOtech as a partner in its digital media production business. Whilst we have seen a dramatic increase in interest in our software tools, we are also increasingly partnering with best-in-class service providers and working with them to develop the surrounding workflow processes that can make the tools devastatingly effective. We can now pass on our unique suite of products, together with our experience in making them work, to our new partner DGP to service the UK market on an exclusive basis.

i hear work levels at zootech have been intense over the last few weeks,
hope its a good omen?
