SVTCA, LLC ("SVTC Bidco")
Cash Offer
for
EAG Limited ("EAG")
Offer Update - No Intention to Increase Offer
Having evaluated the situation following the announcement of the increased offer
by EAGI of 130 pence per EAG Share, and the posting of EAGI's revised offer
document, SVTC Technologies, LLC ("SVTC") has decided that there will be no
increase in the amount of SVTC Bidco's offer for EAG.
It is SVTC's intention to allow the SVTC Offer to lapse at the first closing
date on 4 September 2008 (or at such earlier time as EAGI's offer becomes or is
declared wholly unconditional), by reference to the non-satisfaction of the
condition of the SVTC Offer with regard to acceptances. The Independent EAG
Directors have confirmed to SVTC their approval, for the purposes of the
articles of association of EAG, to the SVTC Offer lapsing on this basis.
