The two transactions above constitute the exercise of all outstanding share     
options granted to Mr McCartney under the previous remuneration policy. Current 
Datatec policy precludes the granting of new share options to non-executive     
directors and, as announced on 11 July, Mr McCartney joined the Datatec Board on
16 July.
