TRACSIS PLC

("Tracsis" or the "Company")

RECOMMENDED CASH OFFER

FOR THE ENTIRE ISSUED SHARE CAPITAL OF SKY HIGH PLC

(other than those shares acquired by Tracsis under the Management Agreement and the Prowse Trust Agreement)

OFFER DECLARED UNCONDITIONAL AS TO ACCEPTANCES

OFFER DECLARED UNCONDITIONAL IN ALL RESPECTS

Background

On 26 March 2013 the boards of Sky High and Tracsis announced the terms of a recommended cash offer to be made by Tracsis for the entire issued ordinary share capital of Sky High, excluding the Management Roll Over Shares and the Prowse Trust Shares (as defined in the Offer Document) at 15.25p per Sky High Share (the "Offer"). The full terms of, and conditions to the Offer and the procedure for acceptance were set out in the offer document issued by Tracsis plc on 26 March 2013 (the "Offer Document").

Tracsis is pleased to announce that the Offer has now become unconditional as to acceptances.

Furthermore, on 15 April 2013, the shareholders of Sky High approved the Management Agreement; the Prowse Trust Agreement and the Management Arrangements. Accordingly, Tracsis is pleased to announce that each of the conditions to the Offer, as set out in the Offer Document, has been satisfied and the Offer is declared unconditional in all respects.

Pursuant to Rule 31.4 of the Takeover Code, the Offer will remain open for acceptances until 1.00pm on 1 May 2013. Tracsis will not extend the Offer beyond 1 May 2013.

Level of Acceptances

As at 1.00pm on 16 April 2013 (being the first closing date of the Offer), Tracsis had received valid acceptances from Sky High Shareholders in respect of 16,509,705 Sky High Shares representing approximately 92.62% of the Offer Shares and approximately 76.72% of the existing issued ordinary share capital of Sky High.

These acceptances include acceptances received in respect of:

(i) 1,714,256 Sky High Shares (representing approximately 7.97% of the existing ordinary share capital of Sky High and 9.62% of the Offer Shares) which were subject to irrevocable commitments procured by Tracsis from certain Management Shareholders;

(ii) 10,819,607 Sky High Shares (representing approximately 50.28% of the existing ordinary share capital of Sky High and 60.70% of the Offer Shares) which were subject to irrevocable commitments procured by Tracsis from the Independent Directors;

(iii) 785,878 Sky High Shares (representing approximately 3.66% of the existing ordinary share capital of Sky High and 4.40% of the Offer Shares) which were subject to irrevocable commitments procured by Tracsis from certain other Sky High Shareholders;

(iv) 41,874 Sky High Shares (representing approximately 0.19% of the existing issued share capital of Sky High and 0.23% of the Offer Shares) which were held on behalf of John McArthur, a director of Tracsis; and

(v) 515,000 Sky High Shares (representing approximately 2.39% of the existing issued share capital of Sky High and 2.89% of the Offer Shares) which were held by WH Ireland Limited, a person deemed to be acting in concert with Tracsis.

Neither Tracsis nor its associates have any other outstanding irrevocable commitments or letters of intent to accept the Offer.

Therefore, as at 1.00pm on 16 April 2013, Tracsis may count 16,509,705 Sky High Shares (representing approximately 92.62% of the Offer Shares and approximately 76.72% of the existing issued ordinary share capital of Sky High) towards the satisfaction of the acceptance condition to the Offer (as set out in paragraph (A) of Part A of Appendix I of the Offer Document) and can confirm that the offer is deemed to be unconditional as to acceptances, and in all respects.

The acceptances received by Tracsis in respect of 16,509,705 Offer Shares (which represents approximately 76.72% of the Sky High Shares), the Management Roll Over Shares (comprising 3,526,358 Sky High Shares and representing 16.39% of the Sky High Shares) agreed to be acquired from the Management Shareholders pursuant to the Management Agreement, and the Prowse Trust Shares (comprising 166,667 Sky High Shares and representing 0.77% of the Sky High Shares) agreed to be acquired from the Prowse Trust (a Connected Person of Martin Prowse), mean that Tracsis has acquired or agreed to acquire a total of 20,202,730 Sky High Shares (representing approximately 93.88% of the Sky High Shares).

Settlement of Consideration

Settlement of the consideration to which any Sky High Shareholders (or the first named shareholder in the case of joint shareholders) are entitled under the Offer will be effected (in the manner set out in paragraph 15 of Part II of the Offer Document): (i) in the case of acceptances received, complete in all respects, by 17 April 2013, within 14 days of such date, or, (ii) in the case of acceptances received, complete in all respects, after 17 April 2013 but while the Offer remains open for acceptance, within 14 days of such receipt.

Compulsory acquisition and cancellation of trading of Sky High Shares

As set out in the Offer Document, as Tracsis has received valid acceptances in respect of more than 90 per cent. of Sky High's issued share capital and the Offer has been declared unconditional in all respects, Tracsis intends to exercise its rights pursuant to the provisions of sections 979 to 991 (inclusive) of the Companies Act to acquire compulsorily the remaining Sky High Shares on the same terms as the Offer.

Tracsis has requested that Sky High applies to the London Stock Exchange for the cancellation of the admission to trading of Sky High's shares on AIM. A further announcement is expected to be made by Sky High regarding the proposed date for the cancellation of trading on AIM. The cancellation of the admission of Sky High Shares to trading on AIM would significantly reduce the liquidity and marketability of any Sky High Shares not acquired by Tracsis.

Following such cancellation, Sky High will be re-registered as a private company under the relevant provisions of the Companies Act 2006 and new articles of association be adopted by Sky High. It is intended that these articles of association will contain drag-along rights, which will provide that if there is a change of control of Sky High, namely a transfer to a third party of equity voting capital representing 50.00 per cent. control or more of the equity voting capital of Sky High, Tracsis can require all the other shareholders (if any) to sell their Sky High Shares.

Sky High Shareholders who have not accepted the Offer and who wish to do so are encouraged to do so without delay. Acceptances of the Offer should be received in accordance with the instructions contained in the Offer Document and (in the case of shares held in certificated form) the Form of Acceptance.

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).
