THE MICROSITE IS NOT DIRECTED AT, AND IS NOT INTENDED TO BE ACCESSIBLE BY, PERSONS RESIDENT IN ANY JURISDICTION WHERE TO DO SO WOULD CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF THE RELEVANT LAWS OF THAT JURISDICTION OR WOULD RESULT IN A REQUIREMENT TO COMPLY WITH CONSENT OR OTHER FORMALITY WHICH BIDCO REGARDS AS UNDULY ONEROUS.

THIS MICROSITE CONTAINS ANNOUNCEMENTS, DOCUMENTS AND INFORMATION (THE “INFORMATION”) PUBLISHED BY BIDCO AND HOMESERVE RELATING TO THE OFFER IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE CITY CODE ON TAKEOVERS AND MERGERS (THE “CODE”). THE INFORMATION IS BEING MADE AVAILABLE IN GOOD FAITH AND FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY, AND ITS AVAILABILITY IS SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET OUT BELOW.

Overseas Persons

Viewing the Information you are seeking to access may not be lawful in certain jurisdictions. In other jurisdictions, only certain categories of person may be allowed to view the Information. Any persons outside the United Kingdom who wish to view the Information must first satisfy themselves that they are not subject to any local requirements that prohibit or restrict them from doing so and should inform themselves about, and observe, any applicable legal or regulatory requirements applicable in their jurisdiction.

If you are not a resident of or located in a restricted jurisdiction, you may access any communication or document in relation to the Offer but you are responsible for first satisfying yourself as to the full observance of the laws and regulatory requirements of your jurisdiction. If you are not permitted to view any communication or document in relation to the Offer by virtue of applicable laws or regulatory requirements, please exit this Microsite.

Notice to US Investors

The Offer relates to shares of a UK company and is proposed to be effected by means of a scheme of arrangement under the laws of England and Wales. 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 the United States Securities Exchange Act 1934, as amended (the “US Exchange Act”).

Accordingly, the Offer is subject to the disclosure and procedural requirements applicable in the United Kingdom to schemes of arrangement which differ from the disclosure requirements of United States tender offer and proxy solicitation rules.

However, if Bidco were to elect to implement the Offer by means of a takeover offer, such takeover offer shall be made in compliance with all applicable United States laws and regulations, including Section 14(e) and Regulation 14E under the US Exchange Act and any applicable exemptions thereunder. Such a takeover would be made in the United States by Bidco and no one else.

In accordance with normal United Kingdom practice, Bidco or its nominees, or its brokers (acting as agents), may from time to time make certain purchases of, or arrangements to purchase, shares or other securities of HomeServe outside of the US, other than pursuant to the Offer, until the date on which the Offer and/or the proposed scheme of arrangement under Part 26 of the Companies Act between HomeServe and the HomeServe shareholders in connection with the Offer, with or subject to any modification, addition or condition approved or imposed by the High Court of Justice in England and Wales and agreed by HomeServe and Bidco (the “Scheme”) becomes effective, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn. These purchases may occur either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices. Any information about such purchases or arrangements to purchase shall be disclosed as required in the UK, shall be reported to an information service authorised from time to time by the Financial Conduct Authority of the United Kingdom for the purpose of disseminating regulatory announcements and shall be available on the London Stock Exchange website at www.londonstockexchange.com.

Any financial information relating to HomeServe may have been prepared in accordance with accounting standards applicable in the United Kingdom and may not be comparable to financial information of US companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

Bidco and HomeServe are organised under the laws of England and Wales. Some or all of the officers and directors of Bidco and HomeServe, respectively, are residents of countries other than the United States. In addition, most of the assets of Bidco and HomeServe are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for US shareholders of HomeServe to effect service of process within the United States upon Bidco or HomeServe or their respective officers or directors or to enforce against them a judgment of a US court predicated upon the federal or state securities laws of the United Kingdom.

Forward-looking statements

The Information (including information incorporated by reference) in this Microsite may contain forward-looking statements regarding Bidco’s or HomeServe’s financial position, the current expectations of the management of HomeServe, business strategy, plans and objectives of management for future operations and are naturally subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances.

Forward-looking statements also often use words such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “intend”, “estimate”, “expect”, “target”, “may”, “should”, “will” and words of similar meaning. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events and circumstances, and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements.
