Further re Infusion Talks

Brainspark PLC 26 July 2002 26th July, 2002 BRAINSPARK PLC ('Brainspark' or 'the Company') Further re Infusion Talks At the Annual General Meeting of Brainspark held on 24 July, 2002, shareholders approved the resolution to grant the Directors authority to issue sufficient ordinary shares in connection with the potential transaction announced by the Company on 20 May 2002 (namely the acquisition of a number of shareholdings which have been selected by Brainspark and are held by the Italian Company Infusion S.p.A., incubator of AISoftware S.p.A. - controlling company of both Brainspark and Infusion) (the 'Transaction'). As announced on 20 May, 2002 the Transaction will be structured so that it does not constitute a reverse takeover within the AIM Rules. The fall in the Company's share price since that date has resulted in the two parties agreeing that the Transaction will only take place if and when the Company's share price is at least 3.75 pence per share, the price of the shares on that date, which is less than the Independent Directors' view of the net asset value of the Company. This view is reinforced by an independent valuation carried out by Ernst & Young LLP on behalf of Infusion as a preliminary to the Transaction.
