    eServGlobal Limited 2008 Annual General Meeting : Chairman's Address

    Ladies and Gentlemen,

    I am very proud of our achievements in the 2008 Financial Year, with record revenue and profit as well as major new customer additions
in Latin America, including the Mexico Number Portability and the Uruguay Convergent Billing solutions. eServGlobal is uniquely positioned
given its leading technology and established presence in the world's highest growth telecommunications markets.

    eServGlobal has new products coming to market in early calendar year 2009, particularly in the area of Mobile Payments & Remittances.
The recently announced Homesend contract with Belgacom ICS is an example of our latest generation mobile transaction platform, a technology
which has wide-ranging application for mobile operators. These products, coupled with our existing suite, will ensure that eServGlobal
continues to operate at the leading edge of mobile convergent billing and payment solutions.  

    However due to the uncertainty resulting from global economic conditions in 2008, we are taking a cautious approach to our first half
revenue expectations. At this stage our revenue for the six months to 31 December 2008 is expected to be above A$80 million, which compares
to A$91.2 million in the corresponding six month period in 2007.  We have taken some restructuring action, under our strategy of migrating
specific infrastructure to our low cost locations, which will impact first half EBITDA but bring subsequent cost savings.

    Our full year expectations however include an uplift in second half performance, due to an increased project backlog from the first half
and new opportunities currently in progress. The recent completion of major development projects has also allowed us to reduce the number of
contractors in our business, which will further enhance our ongoing profit margin. At the current levels we expect our overall performance
for the full year to be in line with the Board's expectations. 

    We have enjoyed a successful year growing the business in 2008. This has been recognized by potential investors in the company and we
have received several preliminary approaches.  To coordinate our response and to ensure shareholder value is maximized the Board has
appointed ABN Amro Bank N.V. to advise on potential options in relation to these approaches.

    The public share markets have been challenging through most of 2008 and we have seen our share price decline despite our excellent
performance, strong pipeline and unencumbered balance sheet.  The Board believes there is now a substantial disconnect between eServGlobal's
prevailing share price and the fundamental valuation of the company. This issue has been recognised and shareholders and customers can be
assured of our focus on addressing this, to ensure long term success and value.

    I will now ask our Chief Executive, Laurent Lafarge, to address you.
