                                  PRESS RELEASE

                      SALE OF BONDAR CLEGG IN THE AMERICAS

On January 31, 2000, Intertek Testing Services (ITS) announced that it had
decided to close its Bondar Clegg division. Following this decision, ITS has
sold the Americas business of Bondar Clegg to Bill Sherwood who was the Bondar
Clegg director in charge of Latin America. Contracts for the sale were signed on
February 10, 2000. The Americas represented 67% of the total Bondar Clegg
revenues in 1999.

This transaction will ensure continuity of service for clients in the Americas.
Although the consideration for the sale was minimal, it was financially and
operationally a better solution than closure.

The rest of Bondar Clegg is being closed or incorporated into the Caleb Brett
division of ITS in accordance with the January 31, 2000 press release.
