If you are in any doubt about the contents of this Microsite or the action you should take, you should seek your own financial advice from an independent financial adviser authorised under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 or, if you are located outside the UK, from an appropriately authorised independent financial adviser.
Overseas persons
The information contained in the Microsite is not being, and must not be released or otherwise forwarded, published, made available, distributed or sent, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, in, into or from a Restricted Jurisdiction, and the availability of such information (and any related offer) to shareholders who are resident in, or citizens or nationals of, jurisdictions outside of the UK, or to agents, nominees, custodians or trustees for such persons, may be restricted by the laws or regulations of the relevant jurisdictions. Persons receiving such documents (including custodians, nominees and trustees) should observe these restrictions and must not release, distribute, make available or send them, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, in, into or from a Restricted Jurisdiction. Failure to observe such restrictions and/or requirements may constitute a violation of the securities laws or regulations of any such jurisdiction.
Viewing the Information you seek to access may be unlawful if you are resident or located in a Restricted Jurisdiction. In certain jurisdictions, including Restricted Jurisdictions, only certain categories of person may be allowed to view such Information.
If they are not resident in, or a citizen or national of, a Restricted Jurisdiction, any person who wishes to view this Information must first satisfy themselves that they are not subject to any local requirements that prohibit or restrict them from doing so and should inform themselves of, and observe, any applicable legal or regulatory requirements applicable in their jurisdiction.

Important information for US investors
The Information on this Microsite does not constitute an offer to acquire or exchange securities in the United States (“United States” or “US”).
The Offer relates to the securities of a UK company and is subject to UK disclosure requirements, which are different from those of the United States. The financial information included in certain documents contained in this Microsite, if any, may have been prepared in accordance with non-US accounting standards, and thus may not be comparable to financial information of US companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
It may be difficult for US holders of Marlowe’s shares to enforce their rights and claims arising out of the US federal securities laws, since Marlowe is located in a country other than the United States, and some or all of its officers and directors may be residents of a country other than the United States and some or all of the assets of Marlowe are located outside the United States. US holders of Marlowe’s shares may not be able to sue a non-US company or its officers or directors in a non-US court for violations of the US securities laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel a non-US company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a US court’s judgement.
No offer to acquire securities or to exchange securities for other securities has been made, or will be made, directly or indirectly, in or into, or by the use of the mails of, or by any means or instrumentality of interstate or foreign commerce or any facilities of a national securities exchange of, the United States or any other country in which such offer may not be made other than: (i) in accordance with the tender offer requirements under the US Exchange Act, or the securities laws of such other country, as the case may be, or (ii) pursuant to an available exemption from such requirements.
Neither the US Securities and Exchange Commission nor any US state securities commission has approved or disapproved any offer, or passed judgment upon the fairness or the merits of the offer or determined the adequacy or completeness of any of the information contained in this Microsite. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence in the United States.
Forward-looking statements
This Microsite may contain certain forward-looking statements with respect to the Offer and the financial condition, results of operations and business of Marlowe and Mitie, and certain plans and objectives of Bidco and/ or Mitie with respect to them. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about our beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate”, “target”, “expect”, “estimate”, “intend”, “plan”, “goal”, “believe”, “hope”, “aims”, “continue”, “will”, “may”, “should”, “would”, “could” and similar expressions, among others, generally identify forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements (including those relating to the consummation of the Offer and the anticipated benefits of it) are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the possibility that any of the conditions to the Offer will not be satisfied, adverse effects on the market price of Marlowe’s and/or Mitie’s shares and on Marlowe’s and/or Mitie’s operating results because of a failure to complete the Offer, negative effects relating to the announcement of the Offer or the completion of the Offer on the market price of Marlowe’s and/or Mitie’s shares, significant transaction costs and/or unknown liabilities, changes in global, political, economic, business, competitive, market and regulatory forces, future exchange and interest rates, changes in tax laws, regulations, rates and policies, future business combinations or disposals and competitive developments. Other unknown or unpredictable factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions and assessments made in light of Marlowe’s, Bidco’s and/or Mitie’s experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, business strategies, operating environment, future developments and other factors considered appropriate. The factors described in the context of such forward-looking statements in this Microsite could cause Bidco’s and/ or Mitie’s plans with respect to Marlowe, Bidco or Mitie, or Marlowe’s and/or Mitie’s actual results, performance or achievements, industry results and developments to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements. Although it is believed that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, no assurance can be given that such expectations will prove to have been correct and persons reading this Microsite are therefore cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which speak only as at the date of the relevant document or announcement reproduced on this Microsite. Marlowe, Bidco and Mitie expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to update or revise any forward-looking statements as a result of subsequent events or developments, except as required by applicable law.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, no statement contained or referred to in this Microsite is intended to be a profit forecast for any period and no statement should be interpreted to mean that earnings or earnings per share will necessarily be greater or lesser than those for the relevant preceding financial periods for Marlowe and/or Mitie.
This notice shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of England and Wales.
