The full terms and conditions of the Tender Offer are set out in the Circular,
which Shareholders are advised to read in full.

 

Peel Hunt LLP ("Peel Hunt"), which is authorised and regulated in the United
Kingdom by the FCA, is acting exclusively as financial adviser and broker to
Ocean Wilsons and for no one else in connection with the matters referred to

This announcement may contain, or have incorporated by reference into it,
'forward-looking statements' with respect to certain of the Company's plans
and its goals and expectations relating to its future financial condition,

These forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of
forward-looking terminology, including the terms "believes", "estimates",
"plans", "projects", "anticipates", "expects", "intends", "may", "will" or
"should" or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable
terminology, or by discussions of strategy, plans, objectives, goals, future
events or intentions. Forward-looking statements may and often do differ
materially from actual results. Any forward-looking statements reflect Ocean
Wilsons' current view with respect to future events and are subject to risks
relating to future events and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions
relating to Ocean Wilsons' business, results of operations, financial
position, liquidity, prospects, growth and strategies. Forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date they are made.

 

Other than in accordance with its legal or regulatory obligations (including
as may be required by the Bermuda Companies Act, the UK Listing Rules, MAR,
the Prospectus Regulation Rules, the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency
Rules and FSMA (as appropriate)), Ocean Wilsons is not under any obligation
and Ocean Wilsons expressly disclaims any intention or obligation (to the
maximum extent permitted by law) to update any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Recipients
of this announcement and the Circular are therefore cautioned not to put undue
reliance on forward-looking statements.
