NOW ISTHE TIMEWe’ve had the credit crunch, housing crisis, food

scares, job losses, terrorism and weird weather.

Uncertainty is a background stress. Society has a

sense that anything could happen to anybody.

In the early 2000s is was: Live for Today.Now it’s: Worry About Tomorrow.

NEWORKS EXISTThe products and services we are offering are all proven and already

exist. There’s no need to re-invent anything – just re-package and deliver

in a better way.

PROVEN FIRST CALLThe Z-shape has already been proven to aid brand recall. The device

allows us to be contacted at the time of need. No need for Google or a

phone number search. The consumer can access us instantly.

OFCOM 2015 RULINGFrom June 2015 all mobile calls to 0800 numbers will be free. All mobile

service providers will have to comply. There will be news stories and

Ofcom publicity about 0800 numbers that we will take advantage of.

UNIQUEThere is no similar specialist brand proposition currently marketed direct

to consumer.

NOWHERE TO TURNPeople are living longer and cities are growing bigger. There's a general

breakdown of community and informal support networks. People feel

more isolated and uncertain about where to turn in times of crisis.

DISTRUST OF THE INSTITUTIONSUtility companies and banks provide some insured help services but there

is increasing distrust of these institutions. Mis-selling, lack of transparency,

year-on-year complaints increases and lack of choice are making people

resent the banks, insurance companies and energy suppliers they feel

forced to deal with.

PILOT TEST RESULTIndustry standard cost per enquiry: £7Pilot test cost per enquiry: £1.80

One of the keys to the success of 0800z will

be our memorable brand-device. To prove

its power, we ran an advertising pilot test.

The TV commercial we ran was for general

insurance. That way we measured

memorability of the brand, not the

proposition or offer.

Watch the TV advert once and you’ll see

why this idea is so effective.

UNIQUE0800z is difficult to imitate because any

credible total-assistance service needs

a super-memorable number – and

that’s a difficult thing to invent.

No other 0800 number can be

expressed as a simple shape on a

keypad. This is due to the way Ofcom

has issued numbers.

You will alwaysremember the Z-shape.Zat is how you knowit is great.

WHY THE ZEBRA?If you don’t know why the Zebra is here, you haven’t watchedthe advert from the pilot test. You really should see it.

assistance market we will achieve

commercial success. And there is no other

total-assistance service like ours in the UK.

0800z ROYALTY LENDING 25

I QUICKLY SAID: I’M IN When I first sat down with Michael and Jane to discuss 0800z, I

felt excited. I could see that, given my experience, I could make

their good idea even better.

For 20 years I have been in the Home Emergency sector. In fact,

I was involved in developing much of the UK sector that exists

today. I have worked with almost every major insurer to help

them create Home Emergency offerings, make them more

efficient, more competitive and more profitable. More than once,

I found myself employed by someone who wanted to compete

with a product I created for someone else.

I also created several Assistance Services from scratch - to be

targeted at consumers under the names of existing brands. A

notable example is the Home Assistance service for British Gas

which is now a significant part of their customer proposition.

The years of working in just one sector have made me a true

specialist. Now, the opportunity to create a new brand based on

something I know well, obviously fills me with confidence. The

key 0800z requirements are already like part of my everyday

routine – creating repairer networks, managing supplier

performance and ensuring regulatory standards are adhered to.

Today, in the UK, almost every driver has breakdown cover,

homeowners increasingly hold policies for emergencies like boiler

breakdown and burst pipes, gadget insurance is growing fast and

travel insurance is viewed almost as a necessity.

We have a mature market. It's ready for innovation. A new entrant

can make an impact if their offer is compelling. We have given a

great deal attention to ensuring that the 0800z service will be

market-leading in terms of the cover, price and the service our

Members will experience. 0800z is the innovator that will shake

the assistance market and become a leading player.

There are more than one hundred million of such policies

arranged in the UK every year – a very large market. Our initial

business target is to attract 200,000 members per year. Given

what I know of the market I am sure we will quickly exceed that

modest target.

PART 2:INVITATIONTO THEROYALTYLENDINGSCHEMETo secure working capital, 0800z is raising fundsthrough its own Royalty Lending Scheme. There islimited availabilty, so if you would like to participate,don’t delay.

REGULATORY POSITIONThe regulatory status of the 0800z Royalty Lending Schemeand of the offering of the Scheme to lenders: Through itsown UK website, 0800z Limited (as principal) is solicitingloans from lenders. Loans to 0800z are exempt fromregulation by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) underthe provisions of Article 34 of the Financial Services andMarkets Act 2000 (Regulated Activities) Order 2001 (RAO)which provides that corporate bodies do not requireregulation to arrange their own finance. Loans entered intothrough the 0800z website are principal-to-principalagreements which are not regulated under the RAO.Anyone making a loan directly to 0800z Limited is notprotected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme(FSCS), and is not entitled to redress from the FinancialOmbudsman. 0800z LIMTED Registered in England:6476346

0800z ROYALTY LENDING 29

0800z ROYALTYLENDING BASICS

ROYALTIES PAID ANNUALLYWhen a consumer has been an 0800z member fortwelve months a Royalty is due. In our launchyear, more people will join towards the end of theyear. So the first accumulated Royalties will bepaid at the end of Year-2. All following Royaltieswill be paid annually.

FIVE YEAR FORECASTThis is not a fixed-term loan. The loan is repaidwhen 0800z sells its one millionth consumermembership. We forecast that our millionthmember will join in 2020 - within five years of ourlaunch, which is scheduled for Spring 2016.

MONITORINGRoyalty Slice holders will receive a pre-launch packand regular updates on performance andmembership numbers.

LIMITED SLICESThere are only 1,500 Slices, which must besubscribed for by February 28th 2016.

A lender makes a loan to 0800z.

Instead of earning interest, the lender earns Royalties.

Royalties are earned every time 0800z sells a new

consumer membership.

LOAN SIZELoans are in units of £1,000 - called Royalty Slices.

You may subscribe for as many Royalty Slices as you like.

There are only 1,500 Slices available.

MAXIMUM RETURN 400%Every time 0800z sells a new consumer membership

a Royalty Slice earns 0.5p – until 0800z admits its one

millionth member.

So a Slice earns a maximum of 0.5p multiplied by

One Million - £5,000 - the same as the original

£1,000 loan + £4,000.

0800z ROYALTY LENDING 31

WHY WELIKE ROYALTIES

For the Company, this Royalty Loan is moreexpensive than a fixed-interest loan would be.

However, with the Royalty Loan the Company’soutgoings are in line with sales. The cost ofRoyalty Payments are accounted for in the priceof membership, so cash-flow is easier tomanage.

During the early years, the shareholders acceptless profit while the Royalty Slice Holders reapthe rewards. After lenders have been repaid andearned a 400% return, the company is free ofthe debt.

Also, because the scheme is from a genuinecommercial business, raising finance throughborrowing, it is not subject to UK financialregulation and is accessible to a wide range oflenders.

0800z ROYALTY LENDING 33

0800zROYALTYLENDINGRISKS

UNSECURED LOANIn legal terms, these Royalty Slices are unsecured loans to 0800z.

SUBORDINATED LOANIn order to protect consumers (our members) the FCA requires that all suchloans must be subordinated. In other words, in the event of our insolvency yourposition as a creditor would be below that of an 0800z member or customer.

ILLIQUID Royalty Slices are not listed or traded on any stock market or exchange. Thereis no secondary market for Royalty Slices.

NON-TRANSFERRABLERoyalty Slices are not transferable, other than at the discretion of the Boardof 0800z.

NO OTHER FORM OF RETURNOther than the Royalties on new membership, there is no obligation on 0800zto provide any other form of return on Royalty Slices.

REPAYMENT OF LOAN CAPITAL DEFERRED0800z is not obliged to repay capital loaned under the Scheme until the dateof admission of the one millionth consumer member.

UNDERPERFORMANCEThe maximum return is a refund of the original investment + 400%. It mighttake longer than the 5 years forecasted or we may even never reach 1mmembers. For example, if 0800z underperformed by 60% you would onlydouble your money.

NO ACCESS TO THE FINANCIAL SERVICES COMPENSATION SCHEMEIf 0800z ceases trading you have no right to make a claim to the FSCS.

EFFECT OF EXTERNAL ECONOMIC FACTORSYou should consider the effect on your loan of inflation and of interest rates.Both are currently at historic lows, but this may not continue.

Before making a decision, think about whether

0800z Royalty Lending is right for you. Don't

lend more than you can afford and be conscious

that there is a risk that you could lose your entire

loan. We also draw your attention to these other

risks. They are not necessarily all the risks

associated with lending this way and are not

listed in any particular order.
