Dear Shareholder,

Invitation to tender Shares held by you in the Company

The Acquirer is pleased to invite you to tender, on the terms and subject to the conditions set out below, Shares held by you in the Company pursuant to the Delisting Regulations.

1. BACKGROUND OF THE DELISTING OFFER

1.1 The Company is a public limited company incorporated under the Companies Act, 1913. The Acquirer, a company

incorporated under the laws of the United Kingdom with its registered office at West Hill, Hertford Road, Hoddesdon,

Herfordshire EN11 9BU, United Kingdom, is the promoter and is in control of the Company. As of the date of this

Offer Letter, the issued, subscribed and paid-up equity share capital of the Company is Rs. 39,000,000 comprising

3,900,000 Shares (“Share Capital”). The Acquirer holds 2,923,237 Shares as on the date of this Offer Letter representing

74.95% of the Share Capital.

1.2 The Acquirer is the sole promoter of the Company.

1.3 Through the Delisting Offer, the Acquirer seeks to acquire up to 976,763 Shares (“Offer Shares”) representing 25.05%

of the Share Capital from the Public Shareholders. If the Delisting Offer is successful as defined in Section 11 of

this Offer Letter, the Acquirer will apply for delisting of the Shares of the Company from the BSE where they are

currently listed, pursuant to the Delisting Regulations.

1.4 On April 25, 2014, the Acquirer intimated its intention regarding the Delisting Offer to the Board for its approval

and requested the Board to seek the approval of the shareholders of the Company for the proposed delisting of

the Company by way of a special resolution through postal ballot in terms of Regulation 8(1)(b) of the Delisting

Regulations.

1.5 Pursuant to the intimation received from the Acquirer, the Board, in its meeting held on April 26, 2014 approved the

proposed delisting in terms of Regulation 8(1)(a) of the Delisting Regulations subject to approval of shareholders

of the Company. The result of the meeting of the Board held for considering the Delisting Offer was notified to the

BSE on April 26, 2014 (“BSE Notification Date”).

1.6 The shareholders of the Company passed a special resolution through postal ballot, the result of which was declared

on June 20, 2014 and notified to the BSE on June 20, 2014, approving the delisting of the Shares from the BSE

pursuant to the Delisting Regulations. The votes cast by the Public Shareholders in favour of the Delisting Offer

were more than two times the number of votes cast by the Public Shareholders against it. Specifically, 95.16% of

the valid votes cast by the Public Shareholders who participated in the postal ballot were in favour of the Delisting

Offer. The Company has, on July 23, 2014, received the in-principle approval for the Delisting Offer from the BSE.

1.7 The Securities and Exchange Board of India (“SEBI”) has amended the Delisting Regulations with effect from

March 24, 2015 by notification of the SEBI (Delisting of Equity Shares) (Amendment) Regulations, 2015 (“Amended

Regulations”). In terms of Regulation 31(2) of the Amended Regulations, any proposal for delisting made by any

promoter who, prior to commencement of the Amended Regulations where the offer price has not been determined,

is required to be proceeded with under the Amended Regulations. Accordingly, since the Board and shareholders of

the Company have already approved the Delisting Offer and the in-principle approval of the BSE has been received

prior to the commencement of the Amended Regulations, this Delisting Offer is now being continued and proceeded

with under the Delisting Regulations as amended by the Amended Regulations.
