                         ("Optimisa" or the "Company")



                                  Offer update



On 19 October 2007 the Company declared that the recommended cash offer for the
entire issued and to be issued share capital of eq group plc ("eq") (the "Offer
") was unconditional in all respects. As at 3.00 p.m. yesterday, 29 November
2007, Optimisa had received valid acceptances in respect of a total of 8,806,755
eq Shares representing in total approximately 99.28 per cent. of the issued
share capital of eq. The Board would like to notify all eq Shareholders that as
of 1.00 p.m. on Monday 17 December 2007 the Offer will no longer be open for
acceptance to all eq Shareholders who have not accepted by that time. eq
Shareholders who have not yet accepted the Offer, and wish to do so, are urged
to do so as soon as possible.



Having received sufficient valid acceptances of the Offer, Optimisa will shortly
exercise its rights pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 3 of Part 28 of the
Companies Act 2006 to acquire compulsorily any eq Shares to which the Offer
relates in respect of which it has not received valid acceptances or which it
has not otherwise acquired. Accordingly, Optimisa will be posting, in due
course, formal notices under section 979 of the Companies Act 2006 to eq
Shareholders who have not accepted the Offer by that time.
