| Forward-looking statements: |
| This announcement contains certain forward-looking statements with respect |
| to the proposed acquisition of Research Now by e-Rewards and the expected |
| timetable for completing the Transaction. These forward-looking statements |
| can be identified by the fact that they do not relate only to historical |
| or current facts. Forward-looking statements often use words such as |
| "anticipate", "target", "expect", "estimate", "intend", "plan", "goal", |
| "believe", "will", "may", "should", "would", "could" or other words of |
| similar meaning. These statements are based on assumptions and assessments |
| made by the boards of Research Now and e-Rewards in light of their |
| experience and their perception of historical trends, current conditions, |
| expected future developments and other factors they believe appropriate. |
| By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty, |
| and the factors described in the context of such forward-looking |
| statements in this announcement could cause actual results and |
| developments to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by |
| such forward-looking statements. Should one or more of these risks or |
| uncertainties materialise, or should underlying assumptions prove |
| incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in this |
| announcement. Research Now and e-Rewards assume no obligation to update or |
| correct the information contained in this announcement, whether as a |
| result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the |
| extent legally required. The statements contained in this announcement are |
| made as at the date of this announcement, unless some other time is |
| specified in relation to them, and publication of this announcement shall |
| not give rise to any implication that there has been no change in the |
| facts set out in this announcement since such date. Nothing contained in |
| this announcement shall be deemed to be a forecast, projection or estimate |
| of the future financial performance of Research Now or e-Rewards except |
| where expressly stated |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Dealing disclosure requirements: |
| Under the provisions of Rule 8.3 of the Takeover Code, if any person is, |
| or becomes, "interested" (directly or indirectly) in 1 per cent. or more |
| of any class of "relevant securities" of Research Now, all "dealings" in |
| any "relevant securities" of Research Now (including by means of an option |
| in respect of, or a derivative referenced to, any such "relevant |
| securities") must be publicly disclosed by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London |
| time) on the Business Day following the date of the relevant transaction. |
| This requirement will continue until the Effective Date or until the date |
| on which the Scheme lapses or is otherwise withdrawn or on which the |
| "offer period" otherwise ends, (or if e-Rewards elects to effect the |
| Proposals by way of a takeover offer, until the date on which such offer |
| becomes or is declared unconditional as to acceptances, lapses or is |
| otherwise withdrawn or on which the "offer period" otherwise ends) (or in |
| any event such later date(s) as the Panel may specify). If two or more |
| persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether |
| formal or informal, to acquire an "interest" in "relevant securities" of |
| Research Now, they will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of |
| Rule 8.3. Under the provisions of Rule 8.1 of the Takeover Code, all |
| "dealings" in "relevant securities" of Research Now, by e-Rewards or |
| Research Now, or by any of their respective "associates", must be |
| disclosed by no later than 12.00 noon (London time) on the Business Day |
| following the date of the relevant transaction. A disclosure table, |
| giving details of the companies in whose "relevant securities" "dealings" |
| should be disclosed, and the number of such securities in issue, can be |
| found on the Takeover Panel's website at |
| http://www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk/. "Interests in securities" arise, in |
| summary, when a person has long economic exposure, whether conditional or |
| absolute, to changes in the price of securities. In particular, a person |
| will be treated as having an "interest" by virtue of the ownership or |
| control of securities, or by virtue of any option in respect of, or |
| derivative referenced to, securities. Terms in quotation marks are |
| defined in the Takeover Code, which can also be found on the Panel's |
| website. If you are in any doubt as to whether or not you are required to |
| disclose a "dealing" under Rule 8, you should consult the Panel on |
| telephone number +44 (0)20 7638 0129; fax number +44 (0)20 7236 7013. |
