About Broca plc

Broca plc (AIM: BROC) completed its demerger from 2ergo plc (AIM: RGO) and
successfully listed on AIM on 6th March 2007. The Broca Business is the
development and exploitation of technology with the intention of enabling
M-commerce to be carried out securely via digital services, principally by
extending conventional SMS messaging from existing mobile telecommunications
equipment. The technology is based upon Broca's innovative, patented Protocol.
In addition to the security benefit mentioned above, the Protocol is intended to
deliver confirmation of message receipt by the recipient, something which the
Company believes is not currently available to mobile device users in connection
with M-payments. Whilst the initial technology has been optimised for use with
SMS, the Company believes the Protocol should ultimately be applicable to other
forms of digital messaging and also E-commerce. For further information please
