Kestrel is the investment manager to Kestrel Opportunities, a cell of Guernsey Portfolios PCC Limited ("Kestrel Opportunities"), and various other clients. This disclosure relates to indirect Shares and voting rights in the Company that are managed by Kestrel on a discretionary basis.

Mr. Royde is a partner of, and holds a beneficial interest in Kestrel. Mr. Royde is also a shareholder in Kestrel Opportunities and is therefore deemed to have a beneficial interest in Kestrel Opportunities' entire legal holding in Ingenta.

Of the Shares purchased, 28,050 were acquired on behalf of Kestrel Opportunities and following this transaction, Kestrel Opportunities holds (and consequently Mr. Royde is deemed to have a beneficial interest in) 3,386,733 Shares in the Company. The remaining 4,950 Shares were purchased on behalf of Kestrel's other discretionary clients, in which Mr Royde has no beneficial interest, who, following this transaction, hold a further 1,094,040 Shares in the Company.

Following this transaction and on a combined basis, Kestrel indirectly holds voting rights over 4,480,773 Shares in the Company, which represents approximately 26.48% per cent of the Company's issued share capital.
