Credit Facility

The Company announces that it has today entered into a credit facility ("Arrangement") with Data Select Limited ("Data Select") for up to £1.25 million. The Arrangement is secured by way of a fixed and floating charge debenture between the Company and Data Select.

Data Select is a subsidiary of Phones International Group Limited. Given that the Virtual Phone Shop Limited, a substantial shareholder in eXpansys, is also a subsidiary of Phones International Group Limited, the Arrangement falls within the definition of related parties under the AIM Rules. The Directors, having consulted with Cenkos Securities plc as the Company's Nominated Adviser, consider the terms of this transaction are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's Shareholders are concerned. In being consulted, Cenkos Securities has relied on the Directors' commercial assessment of the transaction.
