MONTE CRISTO SETS THE RECORD STRAIGHT REGARDING THE DJ GROUP

Monte Cristo has reacted strongly to recent press suggestions that it has become a label of the DJ Group and benefited from investment from Myriad Interactive.

"Monte Cristo is an independent company which has appointed Digital Jesters to distribute part of our portfolio of games in the United Kingdom. This is our only link with Digital Jesters," commented Jerome Gastaldi, CEO of Monte Cristo.

"In addition, our relationship with Digital Jesters is currently at a standstill. Despite firm commitment from a representative of the new investors, their financial promises are not being met at the present time."

The company has advised journalists to check any further third party announcements regarding Monte Cristo shareholding with its senior management based in Paris.
