(collectively, the "Underwriters"), pursuant to which the Underwriters have agreed to purchase, on a private placement basis, 14,520,000 special warrants (the "Special Warrants") of the Company at a price of C$3.10 per Special Warrant (the "Offering Price") for aggregate gross proceeds to Redknee of C$45,012,000 (the "Offering"). The Company has granted the Underwriters an option (the "Over-Allotment Option"), which may be exercised by the Underwriters at any time up to 48 hours prior to the closing of the Offering, to increase the size of the Offering by up to an additional 2,178,000 Special Warrants for additional gross proceeds of up to C$6,751,800, representing 15% of the Offering. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering, including any proceeds from the Over-Allotment Option, for working capital.

Each Special Warrant will be exercisable into one common share in the capital of Redknee (the "Common Shares") for no additional consideration. The Special Warrants will be deemed to be exercised upon the earlier of: (i) a date that is no later than the fifth business day after the date of issuance of a receipt for a final prospectus qualifying the issuance of Common Shares underlying the Special Warrants; and (ii) four months and one day following the closing of the Offering. Redknee has agreed to use commercially reasonable best efforts to file a prospectus qualifying the issuance of the Common Shares underlying the Special Warrants within 75 days of closing of the Offering in all provinces of Canada where purchasers of Special Warrants are resident.

The Offering is expected to close on April 18, 2013 and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange.
