                          Sportech Plc (the "Company")

                    Adoption of new Articles of Association

Sportech plc has today given notice to shareholders of its Annual General
Meeting ("AGM") to be held on 1 July 2008 at which a resolution will be proposed
to adopt new Articles of Association. The Company has, in accordance with DTR
6.1.2, supplied a draft of the Company's proposed new Articles of Association to
the UK Listing Authority.

The revised Articles of Association will shortly be available for inspection at
the UK Listing Authority's Document Viewing Facility, which is situated at the
Financial Services Authority, 25 The North Colonnade, Canary Wharf, London E14
5HS. They are also available on the Company's website (www.sportechplc.com) and
hard copies are available for inspection at the Company's head office, and will
be available at the AGM venue on the day of the AGM shortly before the meeting.

It is proposed that the Company adopt new Articles of Association, to take
account of the changes brought about by the implementation of the Companies Act
2006. The new Articles of Association are different from the current Articles of
Association of the Company in a number of respects:

•  articles which reflect statutory provisions have been
amended to reflect the changes brought about by the Companies Act 2006, for
example in relation to the form of resolutions, the variation of class rights
and the period of notice required to convene general meetings;

•  further amendments have been made to existing articles, for
example entitling proxies to vote on a show of hands and allowing members to
appoint more than one corporate representative to attend a meeting, reflecting
the provisions of the Companies Act 2006; and

•  new articles have been added to take advantage of new
powers in the Companies Act 2006 (for example provisions relating to directors'
conflicts of interest, making provision for employees on cessation of business,
electronic and website communications and directors' indemnities and loans to
fund expenditure).

The new Articles of Association will come into force if and when adopted at the
AGM (or any adjournment of the AGM). A further announcement will be made in due
course confirming the results of the AGM.
