Sale
Introduction
On 24 October 2013, the Company announced that it had entered
into a conditional agreement with Noah Ventures to sell the entire
issued share capital of Teliti Datacentres for an aggregate cash
consideration of RM15,000,001 (approx GBP2.9 million) to be
received in three tranches. Noah Ventures will also take on the
responsibility for the RM250.465,451 of debt currently owed by
Teliti Datacentres.
The Sale requires the approval of Shareholders under Rule 15 of
the AIM Rules. A notice convening a general meeting to consider the
Resolution is set out at the end of the Circular.
Teliti was admitted to AIM in November 2011 with the intention
of growing the datacentre business. Whilst the Company's two
subsidiaries, Teliti Solutions and Teliti Services, remain
profitable, following the sale of Teliti Datacentres, the Directors
believe that no advantage will accrue from continuing the AIM
admission. In addition, the Directors wish to reduce the
administrative work and costs associated with maintaining the
listing on AIM. As the Company's Ordinary Shares were suspended
from trading in June 2013, and given that the Directors have
decided to discontinue their discussions with new non-executive
directors, the Ordinary Shares will remain suspended. As a result,
the Company's AIM admission will be cancelled on 23 December under
AIM Rule 41.
The purpose of the Circular is to provide Shareholders with a
summary of the principal terms of the Sale, the cancellation of
Admission, and the reasons why the Directors consider that the Sale
is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a
whole and to convene the General Meeting.
Background to and reasons for the Sale
At the time of the Company's admission to trading on AIM on 3
November 2011, its strategy was for Teliti Datacentres, its
wholly-owned subsidiary, to complete the construction of a
state-of-the-art datacentre in Malaysia. This would enable the
Existing Group to offer co-location hosting services and cloud
based computing services. The latter would draw on the expertise
inherent within its two operating divisions, Teliti Solutions and
Teliti Services, which would also continue to grow their own
business with departments of the Malaysian Government and other
clients.
However, since November 2011, the construction of the datacentre
by Teliti Datacentres has been beset by a number of problems. On 30
January 2012, the Company announced that the delivery and receipt
of key equipment to the datacentre had been delayed until July
2012; on 19 June 2012 it was announced that due to a delay in
payments to the Company's debt provider, the datacentre would not
be operational until the first quarter of 2013; then on 21 December
2012 the Company announced that the datacentre would not become
fully operational until the fourth quarter of 2013.
The delays to the datacentre led to a significant increase in
costs from the interest, which accrued over the elongated
construction time. At the same time, the delay to commencing
operations has adversely impacted the Existing Group's ability to
increase its revenue base. The combined consequence has been to
seriously constrain the Existing Group's cash flows.
Since the release of the Company's half yearly results, the
Company has continued to look for additional investment and has
been in discussions with a number of parties with respect to the
Existing Group's funding requirements. These searches and
discussions have unfortunately failed to realise any new
investment.
As a result, the Directors have agreed to dispose of Teliti
Datacentres (and its liabilities of RM250.465,451) to remove the
constraints on the Company's cash flows and hence preserve the
value of Teliti Solutions and Teliti Services. Noah Ventures, being
associated with the main contractor for the construction of the
datacentre, will conditionally acquire Teliti Datacentres, together
with all its outstanding debt, with a view to completing the
construction work of the datacentre. The consideration for the sale
of Teliti Datacentres will be RM15,000,001. This will enable the
Company to remove the debt burden from the Group and the cash
consideration will be used to increase the working capital of the
remaining operating businesses, Teliti Services and Teliti
Solutions.
It is for this reason that the Company believes the Sale is in
Shareholders' best interests as it will remove the debt burden of
Teliti Datacentres whilst allowing the Company to concentrate on
the profitable and growing subsidiaries of Teliti Services and
Teliti Solutions.
The Sale Agreement
Pursuant to the Sale Agreement, the Company has conditionally
agreed to sell the entire issued share capital of Teliti
Datacentres to Noah Ventures for a total aggregate cash
consideration of RM15,000,001payable in three tranches on the First
Payment Date, Second Payment Date and Third Payment Date. The Sale
Agreement also provides that Teliti Datacentres will repay its
outstanding RM28,000,000 debt to Teliti Computers in three tranches
on the First Payment Date, Second Payment Date and Third Payment
Date. Completion is conditional upon, inter alia, approval by
Shareholders of the Sale at the General Meeting, the Noah Ventures'
receipt of the Affin Bank Berhad Confirmations and the Company
Confirmations.
Assuming the conditions of the Sale Agreement are satisfied,
issuance of the Bank Guarantee is expected to follow within one
month of the General Meeting.
On completion of the Sale, the RM250,465,451 debt held by Teliti
Datacentres shall remain with Teliti Datacentres and the Group
shall have no liability or repayment obligations in respect of the
same.
A summary of the principal terms of the Sale Agreement are set
out in the Circular.
Unaudited Pro Forma Statement of Net Assets for the Group

Notes
1. The pro forma financial information has been prepared
in a manner consistent with the accounting policies
adopted by Teliti in its last audited financial statements,
being for the year ended 30 September 2012. The column
'30 September 2013' represents the consolidated net
assets of the Group which have been extracted without
adjustment from the unaudited financial statements of
the Group for the year ended 30 September 2013.
2. This column represents the adjustment to reflect the
disposal of the total assets and total liabilities of
Teliti Datacentres. These figures have been extracted
without adjustment from the unaudited financial statements
of that company for the year ended 30 September 2013.
3. This column represents the cash proceeds of RM15 million
arising from the sale of Teliti Datacentres, less estimated
costs of the transaction of RM0.6 million.
Trading Statement
In the year to 30 September 2013, Teliti Solutions and Teliti
Services have a combined turnover of RM55 million (approx GBP11
million) and profits of RM3.7 million (approximately GBP0.75
million); with both subsidiaries also showing a strong increase on
2012 numbers.
Cancellation of AIM Admission
The Company's Depositary Interests are currently suspended from
trading on AIM pending the appointment of two non-executives to
replace the two who resigned in June 2013. With the Company having
now decided that no advantage will accrue, post the Sale, from
continuing the AIM admission, no new non-executive directors will
be appointed and hence the Depositary Interests will remain
suspended. As a result, the AIM admission will be cancelled on 23
December under AIM Rule 41, being 6 months since the Depositary
Interests were suspended from trading.
Upon the cancellation of the Company's AIM admission, Daniel
Stewart and Company Plc will cease to be nominated adviser to the
Company. The Company will no longer be required to comply with the
AIM Rules. The Company will no longer be bound (nor able) to
announce, via a regulatory information service, material events,
administrative changes or material transactions nor to announce
interim or final results. The Company will no longer be required to
comply with any of the additional specific corporate governance
requirements for companies admitted to trading on AIM.
In addition, following the cancellation of the Company's AIM
admission, the Company's CREST facility will be cancelled on 9
January 2014 and Shareholders who hold Ordinary Shares in
uncertificated form prior to the cancellation of the Company's AIM
admission will receive share certificates.
On cancellation of the Company's AIM admission, there will be no
market facility for dealing in the Ordinary Shares and no price
will be publically quoted. As a result the shareholdings in the
Company are likely to be illiquid and Shareholders may find it
difficult to realise their investment.

A notice convening the General Meeting, to be held at the
offices of Daniel Stewart & Company Plc at Becket House, 36 Old
Jewry, London, EC2R 8DD at 9:00 a.m. on 23 December 2013 is set out
