Timetable of Principal Events
The outcome of today's Court Meeting and General Meeting means that Conditions 2.1.1 and 2.1.2 (as set out in Part A of Part IV of the Scheme Document) have been satisfied.
The Scheme Document contains an expected timetable of principal events in relation to the Scheme, which remains unchanged. The Scheme remains conditional on the satisfaction or, where applicable, waiver of the other Conditions set out in the Scheme Document (including the sanction of the Court). Subject to the satisfaction or (if capable of waiver) the waiver of the Conditions to the Scheme (as set out in the Scheme Document) the Scheme is expected to become effective on 14 September 2026. All dates and times are based on CyanConnode's and Esyasoft's current expectations and are subject to change.
If the Scheme is sanctioned as outlined above, the last day of dealings in, and registration of transfers of, CyanConnode Shares on AIM is expected to be the Business Day immediately prior to the Effective Date, and no transfers shall be registered after 6.00 p.m. on that date. It is intended that, subject to the Scheme becoming Effective, CyanConnode shall make an application to the London Stock Exchange for the cancellation of admission to trading of CyanConnode Shares on AIM to take effect from the first Business Day after the Effective Date.
If any changes to the key dates and/or times set out in the timetable are made, CyanConnode and Esyasoft will give notice of this change by issuing an announcement through a Regulatory Information Service and by making such announcement available on CyanConnode's website at: www.cyanconnode.com and Esyasoft's website at: www.esyasoft.com/takeover-documentation-cyanconnode-holdings-plc.

Notice to Overseas Shareholders
The availability of the Scheme and the Acquisition to CyanConnode Shareholders who are not resident in and citizens of the United Kingdom may be affected by the laws of the relevant jurisdictions in which they are located or of which they are citizens. Overseas Shareholders should inform themselves of, and observe, any applicable legal or regulatory requirements of their jurisdictions. In particular, the ability of Overseas Shareholders to vote their Scheme Shares or CyanConnode Shares with respect to the Scheme at the Meetings, or to execute and deliver Forms of Proxy (or other proxy instructions) appointing another to vote at the Meetings on their behalf, may be affected by the laws of the relevant jurisdictions in which they are located. Any failure to comply with the applicable restrictions 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 Acquisition disclaim any responsibility or liability for the violation of such restrictions by any person.
This announcement has been prepared to comply with English law, the AIM Rules and the Takeover Code and the information disclosed may not be the same as that which would have been disclosed if this announcement had been prepared in accordance with the laws of jurisdictions outside the United Kingdom.
The release, publication or distribution of this announcement in certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law and the availability of the Acquisition to CyanConnode Shareholders who are not resident in the United Kingdom may be affected by the laws of the relevant jurisdictions in which they are resident. Persons who are not resident in the United Kingdom or who are subject to other jurisdictions should inform themselves of, and observe, any applicable requirements.
Unless otherwise determined by Esyasoft or required by the Takeover Code, and permitted by applicable law and regulation, the Acquisition will not be made available, directly or indirectly, in, into or from a Restricted Jurisdiction where to do so would violate the laws in that jurisdiction and no person may vote in favour of the Scheme by any such means from within a Restricted Jurisdiction or any other jurisdiction if to do so would constitute a violation of the laws of that jurisdiction. Accordingly, copies of this announcement and all documents relating to the Acquisition are not being, and must not be, directly or indirectly, mailed or otherwise forwarded, distributed or sent in, into or from a Restricted Jurisdiction where to do so would violate the laws in that jurisdiction, and persons receiving this announcement and all documents relating to the Acquisition (including custodians, nominees and trustees) must not mail or otherwise distribute or send them in, into or from such jurisdictions where to do so would violate the laws in that jurisdiction.
If the Acquisition is implemented by way of a Takeover Offer (unless otherwise permitted by applicable law and regulation), the Takeover Offer may not be made directly or indirectly, in or into, or by the use of mails or any means or instrumentality (including, but not limited to, facsimile, email or other electronic transmission, or telephone) of interstate or foreign commerce of, or of any facility of a national, state or other securities exchange of any Restricted Jurisdiction and the Takeover Offer may not be capable of acceptance by any such use, means, instrumentality or facilities.
Overseas Shareholders are strongly advised to consult their own legal and tax advisers with regard to the legal and tax consequences of the Scheme in their own particular circumstances.
All CyanConnode Shareholders (including, without limitation, nominees, trustees or custodians who would, or otherwise intend to, forward this announcement and its accompanying documents to any jurisdiction outside the United Kingdom), should seek appropriate independent professional advice before taking any action.
Notice to US investors
CyanConnode Shareholders in the United States should note that the Acquisition relates to the securities of a company organised under the laws of England and Wales and is proposed to be effected by means of a scheme of arrangement under the Companies Act. This announcement and certain other documents relating to the Acquisition have been or will be prepared in accordance with English law, the AIM Rules, the Takeover Code and UK disclosure requirements, and the format and style applicable to a scheme of arrangement under the Companies Act, all of which differ from those in the United States. A transaction effected by means of a scheme of arrangement is not subject to the tender offer rules or the proxy solicitation rules under the US Exchange Act. Accordingly, the Scheme is subject to the disclosure requirements of and practices applicable in the United Kingdom to schemes of arrangement, which differ from the disclosure requirements and practices of the United States tender offer and proxy solicitation rules.
None of the securities referred to in this announcement nor the information contained in this announcement has been approved or disapproved by the US Securities and Exchange Commission, any state securities commission in the United States or any other US regulatory authority, nor have such authorities passed upon the fairness or merits of the proposal contained in this announcement or determined the adequacy or accuracy of the information contained herein. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence in the United States.
CyanConnode's financial statements, and all financial information that is included in this announcement, or any other documents relating to the Acquisition, have been prepared in accordance with the UK adopted International Accounting Standards and may not be comparable to financial statements of companies in the United States or other companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles. US generally accepted accounting principles differ in certain respects from the UK adopted International Accounting Standards. None of the financial information in this announcement has been audited in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the US or the auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board of the US.
It may be difficult for US holders of CyanConnode Shares to enforce their rights and any claims they may have arising under US federal securities laws in connection with the Acquisition, since CyanConnode is organised under the laws of a country other than the United States, and some or all of its officers and directors may be residents of countries other than the United States, and most of the assets of CyanConnode are located outside of the United States. US holders of CyanConnode Shares may not be able to sue a non-US company or its officers or directors in a non-US court for violations of US federal securities laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel a non-US company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a US court's jurisdiction or judgment.
If Esyasoft were to elect to implement the Acquisition by means of a Takeover Offer, such Takeover Offer may be made in compliance with applicable US securities laws and regulations, including to the extent applicable, Section 14(e) of the US Exchange Act and Regulation 14E thereunder, and will be made in accordance with the Takeover Code. Such a Takeover Offer may be made in the United States by Esyasoft and no one else. Accordingly, the Acquisition may be subject to disclosure and other procedural requirements, including with respect to withdrawal rights, offer timetable, settlement procedures and timing of payments that are different from those applicable under US domestic tender offer procedures and law.
The receipt of cash pursuant to the Acquisition by a CyanConnode Shareholder in the United States as consideration for the transfer of its CyanConnode Shares pursuant to the Scheme will likely be a taxable transaction for United States federal income tax purposes and under any applicable United States state and local income tax laws. Each CyanConnode Shareholder in the United States is urged to consult its independent professional tax or legal adviser immediately regarding the US federal, state and local income and non-income tax consequences of the Acquisition applicable to it, as well as any consequences arising under the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction.
Forward-looking statements
This announcement (including information incorporated by reference in this announcement) may contain certain "forward-looking statements" with respect to Esyasoft or CyanConnode. 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, but do not always, use words such as "anticipate", "target", "expect", "estimate", "intend", "plan", "goal", "believe", "will", "may", "should", "would", "could" or other words or terms of similar meaning or the negative thereof. Forward-looking statements include statements relating to the following: (i) future capital expenditures, expenses, revenues, earnings, economic performance, indebtedness, financial condition, dividend policy, losses and future prospects; and (ii) business and management strategies of Esyasoft or the Esyasoft Group and the expansion and growth of CyanConnode.
Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. By their nature, because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future, these forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results and are based on certain key assumptions and other factors which may cause actual results, performance or developments to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements.
These factors include, but are not limited to, the satisfaction of the Conditions to the Acquisition, as well as additional factors, such as changes in political and economic conditions, changes in the level of capital investment, retention of key employees, changes in customer habits, success of business and operating initiatives and restructuring objectives, impact of any acquisitions or similar transactions, changes in customers' strategies and stability, competitive product and pricing measures, changes in the regulatory environment, fluctuations of interest and/or exchange rates and the outcome of any litigation.
These forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions regarding present and future strategies and environments. You are cautioned not to place any reliance on such forward- looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. All subsequent oral or written forward- looking statements attributable to Esyasoft or CyanConnode, or any person acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statement above. 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.
None of Esyasoft or CyanConnode or any of their respective associates or directors, affiliates, 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.
Esyasoft or CyanConnode assume no obligation to update publicly or revise forward-looking or other statements contained in this announcement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent legally required.
No profit forecasts or estimates
No statement in this announcement is intended as a profit forecast, profit estimate or quantified benefits statement for any period and no statement in this announcement should be interpreted to mean that earnings or earnings per CyanConnode Share for the current or future financial years would necessarily match or exceed the historical published earnings or earnings per CyanConnode Share.
Disclosure requirements of the Takeover Code
Under Rule 8.3(a) of the Takeover Code, any person who is interested in 1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of an offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror (being any offeror other than an offeror in respect of which it has been announced that its offer is, or is likely to be, solely in cash) must make an Opening Position Disclosure following the commencement of the Offer Period and, if later, following the announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. An Opening Position Disclosure must contain details of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of: (i) the offeree company; and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s). An Opening Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(a) applies must be made by no later than 3.30 p.m. on the 10th Business Day following the commencement of the Offer Period and, if appropriate, by no later than 3.30 p.m. on the 10th Business Day following the announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. Relevant persons who deal in the relevant securities of the offeree company or of a securities exchange offeror prior to the deadline for making an Opening Position Disclosure must instead make a Dealing Disclosure.
Under Rule 8.3(b) of the Takeover Code, any person who is, or becomes, interested in 1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror must make a Dealing Disclosure if the person deals in any relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror. A Dealing Disclosure must contain details of the dealing concerned and of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of: (i) the offeree company; and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s), save to the extent that these details have previously been disclosed under Rule 8. A Dealing Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b) applies must be made by no later than 3.30 p.m. on the Business Day following the date of the relevant dealing.
If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire or control an interest in relevant securities of an offeree company or a securities exchange offeror, they will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.
Opening Position Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company and by any offeror and Dealing Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company, by any offeror and by any persons acting in concert with any of them (see Rules 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4 of the Takeover Code).
Details of the offeree and offeror companies in respect of whose relevant securities Opening Position Disclosures and Dealing Disclosures must be made can be found in the Disclosure Table on the Panel's website at http://www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk, including details of the number of relevant securities in issue, when the Offer Period commenced and when any offeror was first identified. You should contact the Panel's Market Surveillance Unit on +44 (0)20 7638 0129 if you are in any doubt as to whether you are required to make an Opening Position Disclosure or a Dealing Disclosure.
Trading of CyanConnode Shares
As at the close of trading on the last day of dealings in CyanConnode Shares prior to the Effective Date there may be unsettled, open trades for the sale and purchase of CyanConnode Shares within CREST. The CyanConnode Shares that are the subject of such unsettled trades will be treated under the Scheme in the same way as any other CyanConnode Share registered in the name of the relevant seller under that trade. Consequently, those CyanConnode Shares will be transferred under the Scheme and the seller will receive the appropriate cash consideration in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition.
