The acquisition of Cheque Exchange Limited ('CEL') is a reverse takeover under Rule 14 of the AIM Rules and admission is sought as a result of this.

Hertford was incorporated on 12 July 2006 and it was admitted to AIM on 24 December 2007. The purpose of admission was to allow the Company access to development capital and to provide the directors with the ability to make strategic acquisitions.

Hertford owns 100. per cent of CrewCard Network Limited which is a marketer of pre-paid debit card programmes.

CEL was incorporated in 1994 with the purpose of enabling Unbanked persons to cash cheques issued to them as payee following legislation that made cheque cashing more regulated. CEL is a founder member of the British Cheque Cashers Association, which was formed to introduce codes of practice in order to encourage banks to offer these facilities. The business model is the provision of simple financial solutions through a nationwide agency network. The principal business was TPCC (supported by some FPCC). In January 2000 CEL took on the UK super agency for MoneyGram® and has grown a nationwide agency network of around 750 agents of which approximately 500 outlets currently support MoneyGram® and approximately 420 support TPCC, with some agents doing both.

CEL provides two main products: third party cheque cashing facilities through approximately four hundred and twenty outlets throughout the United Kingdom, Northern Ireland, and the Channel Islands and MoneyGram® money transfer facilities through over five hundred outlets nationwide.

The main business of the enlarged group will be the marketing of prepaid debit cards, third party cheque cashing facilities, loans-til-payday, and Travelex foreign exchange. The enlarged group will operate throughout the United Kingdom, Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands.
