Letter to Shareholders from DataDot Technology Chairman

5 June, 2009

I am writing to update you on several important developments concerning DataDot Technology Limited:

  • On 26 May 2009 the Company received a notice from a substantial shareholder requisitioning a general meeting of shareholders (general meeting) to consider the removal of two directors from the Board.

  • Separately, on 26 May 2009, another shareholder made an application to the Takeovers Panel seeking orders that, among other things, two substantial shareholders dispose of any shares they acquired in DataDot pursuant to the company's recent capital raising.

Essentially, these matters relate to a dispute between two separate shareholders in DataDot Technology. They do not impact the company’s underlying business, and are an unwelcome distraction for Board and management at this time. Our focus is firmly on delivering on the Company’s strategy, and running the company for the benefit of all shareholders.

In advance of the general meeting we will be sending you detailed explanations of matters to be considered. I urge you to read and consider these documents carefully. You will be able to cast your vote either in person or via the proxy form contained with the general meeting documents.

In terms of the company’s day-to-day operations, I am pleased to advise that on June 1 a new Chief Financial Officer, Ross Hawkey, was appointed to bring additional strength to the management team. Our CEO Ben Bootle is currently conducting meetings with subsidiaries and distributors in the USA and Europe to further the company’s interests in these markets.

Your Board is committed to keeping all shareholders fully informed as developments occur. Our website is updated frequently with information for shareholders which I urge you to keep across.

If you have any questions on these matters please do not hesitate to contact our Company Secretary, Graham Loughlin, at [email protected] or on 02-89774900.

Yours sincerely,
