Phonelink PLC 23 February 2000 Change of Name and Approval to Issue New Shares At its Extraordinary General Meeting held today PhoneLink's shareholders gave approval for the name of the company to be changed to TelMe.com. This will take effect from the start of the company's new financial year on 1 April 2000. The shareholders also gave approval for the directors to allot up to 5% of the issued share capital of the company in new shares without first obtaining shareholder approval under the provisions of Section 95 of the Companies Act 1985. This power is of a type normally given to directors of public companies to enable them to allot shares at short notice. Graham Ramsey, Chief Executive said: 'The change of name of our company is a reflection on the repositioning of the business as a successful Internet and E Commerce centric enterprise which has taken place since the Group's management was reorganised in 1998. The TelMe brand is one of the strongest owned by the Group and we have chosen it to ensure that the existing value in the brand is maximised. The authority to allot up to 5% of the issued share capital of the company has been used successfully in the past to acquire Farebase in November 1999 and to raise new money for marketing in December 1999. This new authority provides us with the ability to exploit opportunities at short notice as they present themselves.'
