The Acquisition relates to the shares of a UK company and is
proposed to be made by means of a scheme of arrangement provided
for under the laws of England and Wales. The Acquisition is subject
to the disclosure requirements and practices applicable in the
United Kingdom to schemes of arrangement, which differ from the
disclosure and other requirements of US securities laws. Financial
information included in the relevant documentation will have been
prepared in accordance with accounting standards applicable in the
United Kingdom that may not be comparable to the financial
statements of US companies.
The New Premier Shares have not been, will not be, and are not
required to be, registered with the SEC under the US Securities Act
in reliance upon the exemption from registration requirements of
the US Securities Act provided by Section 3(a)(10) of that Act. The
New Premier Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under
the securities laws of any state or jurisdiction of the United
States and, accordingly, will only be issued to the extent that
exemptions from the registration or qualification requirements of
state "blue sky" securities laws are available. Under applicable US
securities laws, persons (whether or not US persons) who are or
will be "affiliates" (for the purposes of the US Securities Act) of
Premier or EnCore prior to, or of Premier after, the Effective Date
will be subject to certain transfer restrictions relating to the
New Premier Shares received in connection with the Acquisition.
If the Acquisition is implemented by way of an Offer, it will be
made in accordance with the requirements of the US securities laws,
to the extent applicable. If the Acquisition is implemented by way
of an Offer, the New Premier Shares to be issued in connection with
such Offer will not be registered under the US Securities Act or
under the securities laws of any state, or other jurisdiction of
the United States and may not be offered, sold or delivered,
directly or indirectly, in the United States except pursuant to an
applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the
registration requirements of the US Securities Act or such other
securities laws. Premier does not intend to register any such New
Premier Shares or part thereof in the United States or to conduct a
public offering of the New Premier Shares in the United States.
