Important information

Important notice:Before deciding whether or not to accept the Offer, you should read Webcentral's target's statement dated 1 October 2020 (Target's Statement) and Webcentral's supplementary target's statement dated

15 October 2020, in full. Capitalised terms used in this card have the same meaning given in the Target's Statement.

  • Webcentral's Independent Board Committee strongly encourages and unanimously recommends Webcentral Shareholders toACCEPT5GN's Offer NOW, and without delay.1
  • If you do notACCEPTthe Offer, there are various implications for you. These include:
    • the market price of Webcentral Shares may fall following the close of the Offer;
    • 5GN is proposing to provide a secured loan to Webcentral of approximately $47.7 million. Webcentral will use that loan to repay its existing lenders in full. Webcentral will then owe $47.7 million to 5GN;
    • as a result of the loan from 5GN, Webcentral will remain highly geared. The interest rate under the 5GN loan is higher than under Webcentral's existing debt facilities by approximately 2 times and the loan must be repaid within 12 months;
    • Webcentral may need to undertake an equity raising to repay some or all of the 5GN loan. It is reasonable to expect that any such equity raising will be at a material discount to the then prevailing share price and Webcentral Shareholders who do not participate are likely to be materially diluted; and
    • if the equity raising is conducted as a rights issue, it is possible that 5GN could underwrite the equity raising and, if there was a material shortfall in the level of take up under the rights issue, this could result in 5GN significantly increasing its shareholding in Webcentral if it acquires some or all of the shortfall shares.2
  • If these risks conflict with your individual risk profile, you should strongly consider these implications in making your decision as to whether toACCEPTthe Offer.
  1. The Independent Board Committee considers it to be very unlikely that a Superior Proposal will now emerge.
  2. For further details of risks associated with not accepting the Offer, see section 7.3 of the Target's Statement.
