Disclaimer
This current report
on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any
sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification
under the securities laws of such jurisdiction. No offer or sale of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting
the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act.
Additional Information
In connection with
the proposed Merger, the Company and Net Element, Inc. (“Net Element”) have prepared and filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) a joint proxy statement/prospectus (which has been included in an effective Registration
Statement on Form S-4). A definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus and a form of proxy were mailed, on or about September 5,
2012, to the shareholders of the Company and the shareholders of Net Element. Before making any voting decision, shareholders are
urged to read the joint proxy statement/prospectus carefully and in its entirety because it contains important information about
the proposed merger. Shareholders are able to obtain, without charge, a copy of the joint proxy statement/prospectus and other
relevant documents filed with the SEC through the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.
Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains
forward-looking statements that reflect the Company’s and Net Element’s current beliefs, expectations or intentions
regarding future events. Any statements contained in this report that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed forward-looking
statements. Words such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “expect,”
“proposed,” “contemplated,” “plan,” “project,” “intend,” “anticipate,”
“believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “pursue,” “target,”
“continue,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking
statements include, without limitation, the Company’s and Net Element’s expectations with respect to the surviving
company’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions with respect to future operations; approval and adoption of the
Merger Agreement by the requisite number of shareholders; the satisfaction of closing conditions to the proposed transaction; and
the timing of the completion of the proposed transaction. All forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements, many of
which are generally outside the control of the Company and Net Element and are difficult to predict. Examples of such risks and
uncertainties include, but are not limited to: (i) the failure of the merger to close for any reason; (ii) general business and
economic conditions; (iii) the performance of financial markets; (iv) risks relating to the consummation of the contemplated merger,
including the risk that required shareholder approval and regulatory agencies might not be obtained in a timely manner or at all
or that other closing conditions are not satisfied; (v) the impact of the merger on the markets for the surviving company’s
products and services; (vi) the employees of the Company and Net Element not being combined and integrated successfully; (vii)
operating costs and business disruption following the merger, including adverse effects on employee retention and on the Net Element’s
business relationships with third parties; (viii) the inability of the surviving company following the closing of the merger to
meet Nasdaq’s listing requirements; and (ix) the future performance of the surviving company following the closing of the
merger. Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking
statements can be found in the most recent annual report on Form 10-K and the subsequently filed quarterly reports on Form 10-Q
and current reports on Form 8-K filed by each of the Company and Net Element with the SEC. Each of the Company and Net Element
anticipate that subsequent events and developments may cause their views and expectations to change. Neither the Company nor Net
Element assumes any obligation, and they specifically disclaim any intention or obligation, to update any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Participants in the Solicitation
The Company and Net
Element and their respective directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies in
respect of the proposed transaction. Information about the Company’s directors and executive officers is set forth in the
Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. Information about Net Element’s directors
and executive officers is set forth in Net Element’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.
Additional information regarding the interests of such potential participants in the merger, which may be different than those
of the Company’s shareholders and/or Net Element’s shareholders generally, have been included in the joint proxy statement/prospectus
and other relevant documents filed with the SEC.
