Overseas shareholders
The release, publication or distribution of this announcement in or into jurisdictions other than Australia or the UK may be restricted by law and therefore any persons who are subject to the law of any jurisdiction other than Australia or the UK should inform themselves of, and observe, any applicable legal or regulatory requirements. Any failure to comply with such requirements may constitute a violation of the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the companies and persons involved in the Scheme disclaim any responsibility or liability for the violation of such restrictions by any person. This announcement has been prepared in accordance and for the purpose of complying with Australian law, English law, the AIM Rules, the Market Abuse Regulation and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules and information disclosed may not be the same as that which would have been prepared in accordance with the laws of jurisdictions outside Australia or England.
The availability of the Scheme to ThinkSmart Shareholders who are not resident in and citizens of Australia or the UK may be affected by the laws of the relevant jurisdictions in which they are located or of which they are citizens. Persons who are not resident in Australia or the UK should inform themselves of, and observe, any applicable legal or regulatory requirements of their jurisdictions. In particular, the ability of persons who are not resident in Australia or the UK to vote their ThinkSmart Shares with respect to the Scheme at the Scheme Meeting, or to appoint another person as proxy to vote at the Scheme Meeting on their behalf, may be affected by the laws of the relevant jurisdictions in which they are located.

Forward looking statements
This announcement (including information incorporated by reference in this announcement), oral statements made regarding the Scheme, and other information published by Bidco or ThinkSmart may contain statements which are, or may be deemed to be, "forward-looking statements". Forward-looking statements are prospective in nature and are not based on historical facts, but rather on current expectations and projections of the management of Bidco and ThinkSmart about future events, and are therefore subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from the future results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
The forward-looking statements contained in this announcement include statements relating to the expected effects of the Scheme on Bidco and ThinkSmart (including their future prospects, developments and strategies), the expected timing and scope of the Scheme and other statements other than historical facts. Often, but not always, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as "plans", "expects", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends" or "anticipates", or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "should", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved. Although Bidco and ThinkSmart believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, Bidco and ThinkSmart can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future. There are a number of factors that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
These factors include, but are not limited to: the ability to complete the Scheme; the ability to obtain requisite regulatory and shareholder approvals and the satisfaction of other conditions on the proposed terms and timetable; changes in general economic and business conditions; the behaviour of other market participants; the anticipated benefits from the proposed transaction not being realised as a result of changes in general economic and market conditions; weak, volatile or illiquid capital and/or credit markets; changes in tax rates, interest rate and currency value fluctuations; the degree of competition in the geographic and business areas in which ThinkSmart operates and changes in laws or in supervisory expectations or requirements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements should therefore be construed in the light of such factors. Neither Bidco nor ThinkSmart, nor any of their respective associates or directors, officers or advisers, provides any representation, assurance or guarantee that the occurrence of the events expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements in this announcement will
actually occur. You are cautioned not to place any reliance on these forward-looking statements. Other than in accordance with their legal or regulatory obligations, neither Bidco nor ThinkSmart is under any obligation, and Bidco and ThinkSmart expressly disclaim any intention or obligation, to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
[1] the term "Excluded Shareholders" has the meaning given to it in the definitions section of the Scheme Booklet. In summary, it means Mr Ned Montarello and the entities he is related to that hold ThinkSmart shares.
