Dealing disclosure requirements

Under the provisions of Rule 8.3 of the Code, if any person is, or becomes,
`interested' (directly or indirectly) in one % or more of any class of
`relevant securities' of SVC3 or SPARK VCT 2 plc ("SVC2"), all `dealings' in
any `relevant securities' of each company (including by means of an option in
respect of, or a derivative referenced to, any such `relevant securities') must
be publicly disclosed by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the London
business day following the date of the relevant transaction. This requirement
will continue until the date of the shareholder and Court-convened meetings of
the companies or on which the `offer period' otherwise ends. If two or more
persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal
or informal, to acquire an `interest' in `relevant securities' of SVC3 or SVC2,
they will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.

Under provisions of Rule 8.1 of the Code, all `dealings' in `relevant
securities' of SVC3 or SVC2 by SVC3 or SVC2 or by any of their respective
`associates', must be disclosed by no later than 12.00 p.m. (London time) on
the London business day following the date of the relevant transaction. A
disclosure table, giving details of the companies in whose `relevant
securities' `dealings' should be disclosed, and the number of such securities
in issue, can be found on the Panel's website at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk.

`Interests in securities' arise, in summary, when a person has long economic
exposure, whether conditional or absolute, to changes in the prices of
securities. In particular, a person will be treated as having an `interest' by
virtue of the ownership or control of securities, or by virtue or any option in
respect of, or derivative referenced to, securities.

Terms in quotation marks are defined in the Code, which can also be found on
the Panel's website. If you are in any doubt as to whether or not you are
required to disclose a `dealing' under Rule 8, you should consult the Panel.
