Basis of access
The information contained on the Web Page in relation to the Possible Transaction is made available in good faith and for information purposes only and does not constitute an offer to sell or otherwise dispose of, or an invitation or solicitation of any offer to purchase or subscribe for, any securities pursuant to the Possible Transaction or otherwise in any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation is unlawful.
Please note that this notice may be altered or updated from time to time. You should read it carefully in full each time you access the Web Page.
The information contained on the Web Page speaks only at the specified date of the relevant document or announcement reproduced on the Web Page and neither WIIT nor any of its members, directors, officers, employees, advisers, agents, affiliates or representatives has, or accepts, any responsibility or duty to update or revise any such information, document or announcement (other than to the extent such duty arises as a matter of law or regulation) and WIIT reserves the right to add to, remove or amend any information reproduced on the Web Page at any time in whole or in part at its sole discretion.
In relation to any information contained on the Web Page, the only responsibility accepted by WIIT or any of its members, directors, officers, employees, advisers, agents, affiliates or representatives is for the correctness and fairness of its reproduction or presentation, unless a responsibility statement in any relevant document expressly provides otherwise.

No offer or solicitation
The information contained on the Web Page is not intended to and does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to subscribe for or buy or an invitation to purchase or subscribe for any securities or the solicitation of any vote or approval in any jurisdiction pursuant to the Possible Transaction or otherwise, nor shall there be any sale, issuance or transfer of securities in any jurisdiction in contravention of applicable law. In particular, this communication is not an offer of securities for sale into the US. No offer of securities shall be made in the US absent registration under the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, such registration requirements. Any securities issued in the Possible Transaction are anticipated to be issued in reliance upon available exemptions from such registration requirements pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act. The Possible Transaction (if any) will be made solely by means of the scheme document to be published by the Company in due course, or pursuant to an offer document to be published by WIIT, which would contain the full terms and conditions of the Possible Transaction. Any decision in respect of, or other response to, the Possible Transaction (if any), should be made only on the basis of the information contained in such document(s). As explained below, if WIIT seeks to implement the Possible Transaction by way of a takeover offer, that offer will be made in compliance with applicable US laws and regulations.

This notice shall be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, English law.
Notice to US investors
The Possible Transaction relates to the acquisition of the securities of an English company, and, if pursued, will be implemented pursuant to either a scheme of arrangement or takeover offer under English law. A transaction implemented by means of a scheme of arrangement is not subject to the tender offer rules of the US Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, the Possible Transaction may be subject to disclosure requirements and practices applicable in the UK to schemes of arrangement which differ from the disclosure and procedural requirements of US tender offer rules. Any financial information included in this section of the website may have been prepared in accordance with accounting standards applicable in the United Kingdom and thus may not be comparable to financial information of US companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the US. If the Possible Transaction is implemented by way of a takeover offer, that offer will be made in compliance with applicable US laws and regulations.
It may be difficult for US holders of the Company’s shares to enforce their rights and claims arising out of the US federal securities laws, since the Company is located in a country other than the US, and some or all of its officers and directors are residents of a country other than the US. US holders of the Company’s shares may not be able to sue a non-US company or its officers or directors in a non-US court for violations of US securities laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel a non-US company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a US court’s judgement.
