This Microsite contains information that has been prepared for the purposes of complying with English law and the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the "Code") and the information disclosed may not be the same as that which would have been disclosed if this information had been prepared in accordance with the laws and regulations of any jurisdiction outside of England and Wales.

Additional U.S. information
The Offer relates to the securities of a company incorporated in England and Wales and is subject to procedural and disclosure requirements that are different from those of the United States (U.S.). Any financial statements or other financial information included in this Microsite may have been prepared in accordance with non-U.S. accounting standards that may not be comparable to the financial statements of U.S. companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S.. It may be difficult for U.S. holders of shares to enforce their rights and any claims they may have arising under the U.S. federal securities laws in connection with the Offer, since Impellam is located in a country other than the U.S., and some or all of its officers and directors may be residents of countries other than the U.S.. U.S. holders of shares may not be able to sue Impellam or its officers or directors in a non-U.S. court for violations of the U.S. securities laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel Impellam and its affiliates to subject themselves to the jurisdiction or judgment of a U.S. court.
Neither the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission nor any U.S. state securities commission has approved or disapproved the Offer, or passed comment upon the accuracy or otherwise of any of the information contained on this Microsite.
Responsibility
In relation to any Offer-related materials accessible on this Microsite please note any statement of responsibility contained therein.
The documents included in this Microsite issued or published by HeadFirst speak only at the specified date of the relevant document and HeadFirst has, and accepts, no responsibility or duty to update or revise such documents (other than to the extent such duty arises as a matter of law or regulation).
In relation to any announcements or other Offer-related materials issued or published by Impellam, or which relate to Impellam or any of its subsidiaries, that are accessible on this Microsite, the only responsibility accepted by HeadFirst and its directors is for the correctness and fairness of its reproduction.
Neither the directors of HeadFirst, nor any affiliated companies of HeadFirst, have reviewed, and no such person is or shall be responsible for or accepts any liability in respect of, any information contained on any other website which may be linked to or from this Microsite.
Forward-looking statements
The information included in this Microsite may contain statements about HeadFirst and Impellam that are, or may be deemed to be, "forward-looking statements", including for the purposes of the US Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are prospective in nature and are not based on historical facts, but rather on current expectations and projections of the management of HeadFirst about future events, and are therefore subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from the future results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this Microsite include statements relating to the expected effects of the possible offer on HeadFirst and Impellam, the expected timing and scope of the possible offer and other statements other than historical facts. Often, but not always, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as "plans", "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "is subject to", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate", or "believes", or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "should", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved. Although HeadFirst believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, HeadFirst can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct.
By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future. There are a number of factors that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including the possibility that the possible offer will not be pursued, or will be pursued on different terms and conditions. Additional factors that may cause actual results to vary from HeadFirst's forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, foreign exchange rate fluctuations and the other unknown or unpredictable factors, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements should therefore be construed in the light of such factors.
None of HeadFirst, Impellam and any of their respective members, associates, directors, officers, employees advisers or any person acting on their behalf provides any representation, assurance or guarantee that the occurrence of the events expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements appearing in this Microsite will actually occur. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Other than in accordance with their legal or regulatory obligations (including under the UK Listing Rules and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the FCA), HeadFirst is under no obligation, and HeadFirst expressly disclaims any intention or obligation, to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, no statement contained or referred to in this Microsite is intended to be a profit forecast or an earnings projection or guidance. Forward-looking statements contained in this Microsite are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the US Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and do not guarantee future performance, which may be materially different from that expressed in, or implied by, any such statements.
