METROFILE RECORDS MANAGEMENT KWA-ZULU NATAL WAREHOUSE FIRE

The Board of Directors of        Metrofile  regrets to advise
stakeholders that a fire occurred at one of the Metrofile
Records Management Kwa-Zulu Natal facilities on Friday evening,
11 October 2013. The fire was contained by the following day and
fortunately no one was injured.

The company has successfully activated its business continuity
and disaster recovery plan.

The company is working with relevant authorities and has
commenced a full investigation to determine the cause of the
incident, as well as which client records have been affected.
All clients whose records have been affected will be contacted
directly.

All operating systems and data have been moved to an alternate
site and are up and running. The offices, imaging bureau,
management of backup tapes and hard drives were not impacted
although delays in delivery will occur in the week ahead due to
limited access to the site.

The company is insured for occurrences of this nature and has
notified insurers accordingly.

We would like to extend our thanks to our regional management
team and staff, the Fire and Emergency Services of the Ethekwini
Municipality, as well as the local community and business owners
for their assistance and support.
