and
Notice of General Meeting
Highlights
* An agreement conditional, inter alia, on the approval of the Shareholders, to dispose of the entire issued share capital of Axis
Mobile Ltd., the only trading subsidiary of the Company, to Synchronica, the mobile email and synchronisation vendor.
* The consideration payable to the Company in connection with the Disposal comprises 85,102,041 Synchronica Shares, of which
68,342,420 Synchronica Shares will be issued directly to the Convertible Debt Holders.
* In addition, the Company will receive 6,600,000 Synchronica Shares pursuant to the Synchronica Placing in consideration for the

Shareholders of the remaining Synchronica Shares, followed by a solvent winding of the Company and the Board's plans for this will be
announced as soon as possible. The first step will be for the Board to discharge the contractual liabilities of the Company and to reduce
overheads to a minimum.
* Following the Disposal, the Company will have no trading activity and the Board believes that the costs of maintaining the

Sharon David, CEO of Axis Mobile, commented:
"As we mentioned in our results announcement on June 30 2008, the Company has experienced difficulty in collecting revenues from its new
accounts and has seen deterioration in its available working capital. The current weakness in the global economy and operational issues
affecting the Company means that further borrowing can not be secured at an acceptable level.
"The Board believes that it is in the best interests of all shareholders to effect the sale of Axis Mobile Ltd, to cancel the Company's
admission to trading on AIM and, following the proposed distribution of the Synchronica shares held by the Company, to seek a solvent
winding up of the Company. The synergies between the business of Axis Mobile Ltd. and Synchronica are compelling and the technology of Axis
Mobile Ltd will enable Synchronica to bolster its mobile e-mail and synchronisation solution."
A timetable is set out in Appendix 1 below.

Appendix 2 Chairman's Letter
Proposed disposal of Axis Mobile Ltd.
Proposed cancellation of admission of Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM
and
Notice of General Meeting
The Board is pleased to announce that on 15 August 2008 the Company entered into an agreement, conditional, inter alia, on the approval
of the Shareholders, to dispose of the entire issued share capital of Axis Mobile Ltd., the only trading subsidiary of the Company, to the
mobile email and synchronisation vendor, Synchronica.
The consideration payable to the Company in connection with the Disposal comprises 85,102,041 Synchronica Shares, of which 68,342,420
Synchronica Shares will be issued directly to the Convertible Debt Holders. In addition, the Company will receive 6,600,000 Synchronica
Shares pursuant to the Synchronica Placing in consideration for the cancellation of a debt owed by the Subsidiary to the Company and
Synchronica has agreed to pay the Company a cash sum of £156,486 which is to be used by the Company to settle certain outstanding
liabilities. Further details of the Share Purchase Agreement are set out below.
The Disposal is deemed to be a disposal resulting in a fundamental change of the Company's business for the purpose of Rule 15 of the
AIM Rules and is therefore conditional on the consent of Shareholders being received at the General Meeting. A notice convening the General
Meeting, at which resolutions approving the Disposal and the De-Listing will be proposed, is accompanying a circular which is today being
sent to Shareholders. Subject to satisfying this condition, and certain other conditions set out in the Share Purchase Agreement as outlined
below, completion of the Disposal is expected to take place a few days following the General Meeting.
A circular is today being sent to shareholders to provide you with details of the Disposal and De-Listing, and to explain why the Board
believes these transactions are in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders, and to seek your approval for the Disposal and
De-Listing.
Background
Since its admission to AIM on 27 June 2006, the Company has positioned itself as a mobile email vendor for the mass market. The Company
launched a mobile email service, which enabled feature phones to receive and send emails and read documents such as Word, Excel and
Powerpoint. Whilst the Board believes that the Company was achieving respectable results, especially in relation to its operations in
Eastern Europe, the Company has found conditions in the highly competitive market segment in which it operates to be challenging..
On 30 April 2008 the Company announced that due to a slower than anticipated increase in and collection of revenues, the Company's cash
position had significantly deteriorated. The announcement stated that the Board was considering its options, which included procuring
additional funding from strategic investors or a disposal of certain or all of the assets of the Company pursuant to a strategic M&A
transaction.
Having considered a variety of funding options over several months, it became clear to the Board that due to market conditions and
ongoing performance issues affecting the Company, the Company would not be able to raise additional equity funding in the short term. As a
result of this inability of the Company to raise additional equity funding, combined with the Company's worsening cash position resulting
from, inter alia, slower than anticipated revenue collection and the devaluation of the US dollar against the New Israeli Shekel, the Board
decided that the only way for the Company to continue to operate, and provide an opportunity of a return to Shareholders, was by concluding
a strategic M&A transaction. Accordingly, the Board entered into discussions to explore the possibility of a strategic M&A transaction with
several potential purchasers. After careful consideration, the Board believes that the sale of Axis Mobile Ltd. to Synchronica represents
the best option for a strategic transaction at this time.
Details of the Disposal
The Disposal consists of the sale by the Company to the Purchaser of the entire issued share capital of the
Subsidiary. The consideration payable to the Company in connection with the Disposal comprises 85,102,041 Synchronica Shares. In addition, a
further 6,600,000 Synchronica Shares are being issued to the Company pursuant to the Synchronica Placing in consideration for the Company
agreeing to release the Subsidiary from an inter-company debt owed by the Subsidiary to the Company in an amount of £198,000. Out of the
total Consideration Shares due to the Company under the Share Purchase Agreement, 68,342,420 Synchronica Shares will be issued directly to
the Convertible Debt Holders pursuant to the arrangements described below under the heading "Conversion of the Convertible Debt". In
addition, Synchronica has agreed to pay the Company a cash sum of £156,486, which is to be used by the Company to settle certain outstanding
liabilities. The closing mid-market price of the Synchronica Shares on 15 August 2008, being the last date prior to printing and publishing
this circular, was £0.045 per share. The closing mid-market price of the Ordinary Shares of the Company on 15 August 2008, being the last date prior to printing and publishing this circular, was
£0.03125 per share, giving the Company a market capitalisation of £919,826.
Under the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement, the issue and allotment of 17,020,408 Consideration Shares will be deferred for a
period of 15 months from the date of Admission, against claims by the Purchaser alleging a breach of any of the warranties, tax warranties
or any other provision of the Share Purchase Agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement, the Disposal is conditional, inter alia, on the following:
* the passing at the General Meeting of the resolution approving the Disposal;
* the Disposal, in accordance with the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement, being approved by the Convertible Debt Holders
pursuant to the terms of the Compromise Agreement;
* completion of the Synchronica Placing; and
* admission of the Consideration Shares becoming effective at or before 8.00 a.m. on 15 September 2008, or such later time or date
(being not later than 3.00 p.m. on 31 October 2008) as the Company and the Purchaser may agree in writing.
Information on the Subsidiary
The Subsidiary was founded in 2000 as Celltrex Ltd. and merged with Valis Ltd. in 2002. From its inception, the Subsidiary operated in
the mobile messaging market, supplying service providers with solutions to enable subscribers to use email on mobile devices. In June 2006,
the Subsidiary was acquired by the Company as part of a reverse aquisition, following which the enlarged group was re-admitted to AIM. The
Subsidiary is the only trading subsidiary of the Company.
Today, the Subsidiary provides consumer mobile email solutions to mobile operators, service providers, system integrators and OEMs. During
2007 and the first half of 2008, the Subsidiary was successful in winning new contracts with customers, and these have started to yield
revenues. However, during the past few months the Subsidiary has experienced difficulty in collecting revenues from new accounts as well as
suffering from the devaluation of the US dollar against the New Israeli Shekel, and has consequently seen a deterioration in its available
working capital.
The following information has been extracted without adjustment from the accounts of the Subsidiary for the year ended 31 December 2007,
and summarises the financial performance of the Subsidiary for that period. In order to make a proper assessment of the financial position
of the Subsidiary, Shareholders should not rely solely on the summary information set out below but should read the whole of Subsidiary's
reports and accounts, copies of which will be made available at the General Meeting.

Information on Synchronica and the Synchronica Shares
Synchronica develops and markets mobile email and synchronisation solutions for a number of devices in the market today. Mobile
operators, device manufacturers and service providers in emerging and developed markets use Synchronica products to offer mobile email, PIM
synchronisation and backup and restore services to their consumer and corporate customer base.
The market for mobile email is expected to grow significantly over the next few years. Synchronica expects mobile email to grow most
rapidly in the emerging markets due to a lack of physical telecoms infrastructure, low PC penetration and the now relatively low cost of a
basic mobile phone. Informa predicts that there will be 4.81 billion mobile phone subscribers by 2012, with a vast majority of the next
billion subscribers coming from emerging market regions ('Middle East and Africa Mobile Opportunities and Forecasts', Informa 2007). At the
end of April 2008, China had approximately 580 million mobile phone users ('China Daily', 25 May 2008). According to industry analysts,
Frost & Sullivan, the mobile enterprise market in the Asia Pacific region (excluding Japan) is forecast to grow in value from just under $21
billion in 2006 to nearly $36 billion by 2011 ('Asia Pacific Mobile Communications Outlook', Frost & Sullivan, 2007).
It is Synchronica's belief that following the acquisition of Axis Mobile Ltd. the combination of the businesses of AxisMobile and
Synchronica will allow Synchronica to bolster its mobile email and synchronisation solution at a time when the mobile email market is
expected to grow significantly.
The following information has been extracted without adjustment from the annual report and accounts of Synchronica for the year ended 31
December 2007 and summarises the financial performance of Synchronica for that period. In order to make a proper assessment of the financial
position of Synchronica, Shareholders should not rely solely on the summary information set out below but should read the whole of
Synchronica's reports and accounts, copies of which are available of the Synchronica website (www.synchronica.com).

Synchronica Placing
In order to finance the combined businesses of Axis Mobile Ltd. and Synchronica following the acquisition of the Subsidiary, Synchronica
has conditionally placed the Synchronica Placing Shares with certain institutional and other investors. On admission of the Consideration
Shares and the Synchronica Placing Shares to trading on AIM, the Consideration Shares will represent approximately 21.19* percent of the
entire issued share capital of Synchronica (as enlarged by the Consideration Shares and the Synchronica Placing Shares) and the Synchronica
Placing Shares will represent approximately 42.19* percent of the entire issued share capital of Synchronica (as enlarged by the
Consideration Shares and the Synchronica Placing Shares). The 6,600,000 Synchronica Shares to be issued to the Company will represent
approximately 1.64* per cent. of the entire issued share capiatal of Synchronica (as enlarged by the Consideration Shares and the
Synchronica Placing Shares). The Synchronica Placing Shares have been placed with institutional and other investors at a price of 3p per share. The closing mid market price of the Synchronica shares on 15 August
2008, being the last business day prior to the publication of this document, was £0.045 per share.
On their admission to AIM, the Consideration Shares and the Synchronica Placing Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the
existing Synchronica Shares, including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, paid or made after the date of
their issue.
Conversion of the Convertible Debt
Between April 2007 and July 2008, the Company and the Subsidiary entered into loan facility agreements with the Convertible Debt Holders
pursuant to which the Company borrowed in several tranches an aggregate of US$7,100,000 from the Convertible Debt Holders. As at 15 June
2008 (the date of the Compromise Agreement), the outstanding Convertible Debt owed by the Company to the Convertible Debt Holders, including
all interest, arrangement fees and other costs and expenses due in connection therewith, was US$7,440,427.
On 15 June 2008, in anticipation of the Disposal, the Company and the Subsidiary entered into a conditional agreement with the
Convertible Debt Holders, conditional, inter alia, on the allotment of a proportion of the Consideration Shares to the Convertible Debt
Holders based on a formula set out in such agreement, pursuant to which the Convertible Debt Holders agreed that upon the allotment to them
of such shares: (i) the Convertible Debt shall be deemed to have been fully paid, satisfied and discharged (including the payment of any
arrangement fees and other costs and expenses due and owing to the Convertible Debt Holders in connection therewith), (ii) all legal charges
created in favour of the Convertible Debt Holders in connection with the Convertible Debt shall be removed, (iii) the agreements entered
into between the Company, the Subsidiary and the Convertible Debt Holders in connection with the grant of the Convertible Debt shall be
terminated, and (iv) all warrants issued to the Convertible Debt Holders in connection with the Convertible Debt shall be cancelled.
It has been agreed with the Convertible Debt Holders that the terms of the Compromise Agreement will be amended prior to the completion
of the Disposal. The effect of the amendment will be that in respect of US$388,000 of the Convertible Debt the proportion of the
Consideration Shares that the Convertible Debt Holders will receive in connection with the Disposal will be equal to the proportion of
Ordinary Shares that the Convertible Debt Holders would receive if such sum of US$388,000 was converted into Ordinary Shares on the basis of
one Ordinary Share for every US$0.01555 of such sum. The remaining terms of the Compromise Agreement will remain the same. The terms of the
Compromise Agreement have previously been announcd by the Company.
Therefore, on completion of the Share Purchase Agreement, and in accordance with the terms of the Compromise Agreement (as amended), the
Company shall direct Synchronica to issue 68,342,420 Consideration Shares directly to the Convertible Debt Holders (less the pro rata
proportion of the Deferred Consideration Shares attributable to the Convertible Debt Holders). As certain of the Convertible Debt Holders,
being Pitango Venture Capital and Concord Ventures, are existing Shareholders, the variation to the terms of the Compromise Agreement
referred to above is classified as a related party transaction under the AIM Rules. The Directors, having consulted with the Company's
nominated adviser, Canaccord Adams Limited, consider the terms of this transaction are fair and reasonable insofar as shareholders are
concerned.
Immediately after Admission, the Convertible Debt Holders will hold an aggregate of 68,342,420 Consideration Shares (less the pro rata
proportion of the Deferred Consideration Shares attributable to the Convertible Debt Holders) being approximately 17.01* per cent. of the
Purchaser's issued share capital.
Use of Proceeds and Post Disposal Strategy
The Company shall have no interest in the Subsidiary immediately following the Disposal. As a result, the Company's only asset will be
23,359,621 Synchronica Shares (being the Consideration Shares and the Synchronica Placing Shares to be issued to the Company less the
Convertible Debt Holders' Consideration Shares and less the pro rata proportion of the Deferred Consideration Shares attributable to the
Company). Following the deemed satisfaction of the Convertible Debt in accordance with the terms of the Compromise Agreement, the Company
will have no liabilities to the Convertible Debt Holders. Following completion of the Disposal the Company will be left with insufficient
working capital to finance its ongoing costs and as a result is likely to be required to sell some of the Synchronica Shares it will hold in
order to fund its costs in connection with and until such time as it is able to effect a distribution to Shareholders. Pursuant to the terms
of the Share Purchase Agreement, any such disposal shall be subject to an orderly market arrangement between the Company, the Purchaser and the Purchaser's broker.
Cancellation of admission of the Ordinary Shares to AIM and CREST
Following the Disposal, the Board believes that Shareholders' best interests will be served by the distribution of Synchronica Shares to
them followed by a solvent winding of the Company and the Board's plans for this will be announced as soon as possible. The first step will
be for the Board to discharge the contractual liabilities of the Company and to reduce overheads to a minimum.
Following the Disposal, the Company will have no trading activity and the Board believes that the costs of maintaining the Company's AIM
admission, including ongoing compliance with the AIM Rules, are best saved to maximise funds available to be returned to Shareholders.
Accordingly, at the General Meeting, a special resolution will be put to Shareholders to approve an application being made to cancel the
admission of the Ordinary Shares to AIM. If approved, it is expected that the cancellation will take effect from 7am on 18 September 2008.
This resolution will be passed if more than 75 per cent. of the votes cast at the General Meeting are in favour.
The Company's Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu in any future dividend or distribution, both before and after the De-Listing of the
Ordinary Shares from AIM.
Following the De-Listing, the Ordinary Shares of the Company will no longer be transferable through CREST. Shareholders who currently
hold Ordinary Shares in uncertificated form will receive share certificates.
General Meeting
Completion of the Disposal and the De-Listing is subject to the prior approval of Shareholders at the General Meeting to be held at the
offices of Simmons & Simmons, CityPoint, One Ropemaker Street, London, EC2Y 9SS on 10 September 2008 at 9.30 am, and any adjournment
thereof, notice for which is set out at the end of this document. The Resolutions will be proposed as (i) an ordinary resolution to approve
the Disposal, and (ii) a special resolution to approve the De-Listing.
Action to be taken
Enclosed with the circular, that is being sent to shareholders today, is a Proxy Form for use at the GM or at any adjournment of such
meeting. Whether or not Shareholders intend to attend the GM personally, they are urged to complete and return the Proxy Form in accordance
with the instructions printed thereon as soon as possible. To be valid, completed Proxy Forms must be received by the Registrars, Capita
Registrars, at The Registry, 34 Beckenham Road, Beckenham, Kent BR3 4TU, not later than 9.30 am on 8 September 2008. The completion of a
Proxy Form will not preclude you from attending and voting at the General Meeting in person should you wish to do so.
Recommendation
Your Board believes that the proposed Disposal and De-Listing are in the best interests of the Company and of Shareholders as a whole
and accordingly unanimously recommends that you vote in favour of the resolutions to be proposed at the General Meeting, as the Chairman
intends to do in respect of his own holdings amounting to 2,365,905 Ordinary Shares, representing 8.083 per cent. of the entire issued share
capital of the Company.
