4 June 2012 Dear Fellow Shareholder THE SAME BAD NEWS – KIT DIGITAL DEAL DOES NOT DELIVER VALUE VISIT WWW.ANEWHYRO.COM FOR MORE INFORMATION
Today’s revision by KIT Digital of some of the terms of their proposed takeover of Hyro’s Business does not change the MAJOR concerns that we have expressed on this deal. Last week I published the attached letter following the Board’s decision to dismiss my proposal in favour of the KIT Digital offer. THE DEAL FROM KIT DIGITAL REMAINS FLAWED!! • WHY SWAP YOUR INVESTMENT IN HYRO’S BUSINESS FOR AN INVESTMENT IN A TROUBLED NASDAQ COMPANY. • KIT SHARES HAVE FALLEN 70% SINCE THE DEAL WAS ANNOUNCED. • THE SHARES ARE TRADING AT A 12 MONTH LOW OF $2.95. • WHY SELL THE COMPANY’S ASSETS FOR KIT SHARES AT A VALUATION OF $8.57 WHEN YOU CAN BUY THEM ON THE MARKET FOR $2.95. • THE PROPOSAL IS NOT AN EXIT. EVEN UNDER THE REVISED PROPOSAL 90% OF KIT SHARES REMAIN LOCKED UP FOR 6 MONTHS AND THE BALANCE FOR 12 MONTHS. • NO REAL CASH ON SETTLEMENT
To prevent the destruction of shareholder value we are asking fellow shareholders to take action by voting AGAINST the sale to KIT Digital and the unjustified and substantial financial rewards to Votsaris and Poiner. Vote AGAINST resolutions 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. The Hyro Board have now delayed the AGM.
We maintain our position that the current deal is a very bad one and I am asking shareholders who support saving our company from a disastrous deal to appoint me, Gary Cohen, as their proxy.
