Dowgate Capital plc ("Dowgate" or the "Company")
Share price movement
The Board of Dowgate notes the recent movement in the Company's share price.
Since last Autumn, the Board has received a number of tentative approaches from
third parties, none of which has resulted in an offer being made for the
Company.
The Board received a further approach last week regarding a possible offer for
the Company and has noted the third party's interest and agreed to provide key
information on Dowgate subject to a suitable confidentiality agreement being
signed which has not yet happened.
If any further developments arise in relation to the above a further
announcement will be made.

Rule 2.10 of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers

like to confirm that, as at the close of business on 9 April 2009, the issued
share capital consisted of 41,437,923 ordinary shares of 7.5p each, of which
1,950,833 shares are held in treasury. Accordingly, the number of shares

Dealing disclosure requirements
Under the provisions of Rule 8.3 of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the
"Code"), if any person is, or becomes, "interested" (directly or indirectly) in
1% or more of any class of "relevant securities" of Dowgate, all "dealings" in
any "relevant securities" of the Company (including by means of an option in
respect of, or a derivative referenced to, any such "relevant securities") must
be publicly disclosed by no later than 3.30 pm (London time) on the London
business day following the date of the relevant transaction. This requirement
will continue until the date on which the offer becomes, or is declared,
unconditional as to acceptances, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn or on which
the "offer period" otherwise ends. If two or more persons act together pursuant
to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire an
"interest" in "relevant securities" of Dowgate they will be deemed to be a
single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.
Under the provisions of Rule 8.1 of the Code, all "dealings" in "relevant
securities" of Dowgate by the Company, or by any of its "associates", must be
disclosed by no later than 12.00 noon (London time) on the London business day
following the date of the relevant transaction.
A disclosure table, giving details of the companies in whose "relevant
securities" "dealings" should be disclosed, and the number of such securities
in issue, can be found on the Takeover Panel's website at
www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk
"Interests in securities" arise, in summary, when a person has long economic
exposure, whether conditional or absolute, to changes in the price of
securities. In particular, a person will be treated as having an "interest" by
virtue of the ownership or control of securities, or by virtue of any option in
respect of, or derivative referenced to, securities.
