EXTENSION OF IRREVOCABLE UNDERTAKINGS
Shareholders are referred to the joint `Progress Update` announcement by
Ellerines and Relyant, dated 6 September 2004, with regard to the proposed offer
by Ellerines to the shareholders of Relyant to acquire their shares in Relyant
(the `Proposed Transaction`). In that announcement, it was stated that the
time period required to complete the Proposed Transaction might have to be
extended to accommodate the competition authorities` approval process. As a
result, shareholders holding 90.2% of the issued shares of Relyant, who had
provided irrevocable undertakings to accept the offer to be made under the
Proposed Transaction (`irrevocable undertakings`), were being approached to
extend these irrevocable undertakings to accommodate the extended time period
required to complete the Proposed Transaction.
Andisa Capital and Java Capital are authorised to announce that the Relyant
shareholders referred to above have extended their irrevocable undertakings to
31 March 2005.
