via electronic lodgement

Dear Sir,

In accordance with the Listing Rules please find attached the company’s Appendix 4C for the quarter ended 30 June 2007.

Operating Activities

With the acquisition of the assets of Softlog Systems Pty Ltd the company now has two divisions, namely FleetManager and Softlog.

The FleetManager division continued to secure new contracts throughout the quarter resulting in close to 140,000 units under management at 30 June 2007, up from 123,000 units reported for the period ended 31 March 2007.

Overall the FleetManager division continues to perform well. There has been significant revenue growth for the period ended 30 June 2007 rising to $719k from $543k for the same period in 2006, an increase of 32%.

Vircom Pty Ltd, the software development company acquired by Stratatel in December 2006 and merged into the FleetManager division continues to make a positive contribution to earnings and cash flow.

In May 2007 the company acquired the business assets from Softlog Systems Pty Ltd, including contracts and intellectual property, through a wholly owned subsidiary, Infratel.com Pty Ltd. Following the acquisition Infratel has been renamed Softlog Systems Pty Ltd.

Softlog are an Australian market leader in cost recovery solutions for the legal and accounting professions with their Softlog.Enterprise suite of solutions, including copier, email, fax and telephony recovery. The legal and accounting practices using the Softlog systems have seen an increase in disbursement recovery from around 10% up to 70%.

This acquisition broadens the Stratatel asset and expense management range of solutions. These can now be offered to a more diverse base of prospective clients.

Sales of Softlog products have been strong since acquisition.

In summary, the outlook for both FleetManager and Softlog revenue remains strong.

Impact on Cash Flow

For the quarter ended 30 June 2007 the company’s operations continued to be operating cash flow positive, with an operating cash inflow of $185k.

Investment activity accounted for net investing cash outflows of $500k for the three months to 30 June 2007.

This investment was primarily for the ongoing development of the FleetManager[®] system and also some of the agreed and contracted instalments for the purchase of Vircom and the assets of Softlog Systems Pty Ltd.

Both Vircom and Softlog make a positive contribution to earnings and cash flow.
