    GENERAL: VCT: Another "low-ball" offer to Vector shareholders
    
    Vector Chairman Michael Stiassny today warned shareholders that the company
    was aware its shareholders were being targeted by another "low-ball" share
    offer.
    
    Mr Stiassny said the latest offer from Australian Stock & Share Trading
    offered shareholders $2.00 per share, an offer which is 26% below today's
    share price of $2.69.
    
    "For a shareholder who has 1,000 shares and sells them to Stock & Share
    Trading, they would receive $690- less than the market value of the shares.
    I'm sure most people would prefer to have this money in their pocket, rather
    than give it away to an offshore company.
    
    "It is extremely frustrating that these offers continue in the New Zealand
    market and that some are targeted at our shareholders," he said.
    
    Mr Stiassny said the company's advice to shareholders receiving these offers
    remained the same - that shareholders be wary of unsolicited offers, read the
    detail of the offer carefully, seek independent advice and check the most
    recent market price for Vector shares, before making any decision in relation
    to the offer.
