Easydate plc 
Statement re: easyGroup Holdings Ltd 
 
Easydate plc (AIM: EZD), the internet-based dating operator, notes the statement 
made this morning by easyGroup Holdings Ltd and would like to clarify its 
position. 
 
Easydate is the company's name and the business has used this name in good faith 
for over five years without intervention or objection from any party, including 
easyGroup. Easydate plc has worked hard to build its own distinctive brand and 
reputation and also that of its consumer facing websites. In these 
circumstances, Easydate does not believe there is any opportunity for consumer 
confusion. Easydate operates numerous online dating sites, which have their own 
distinctive brands within the market place. These sites are listed below: 
 
Cupid.com 
CupidAffinity.com 
Flirt.com 
LoopyLove.com 
BeNaughty.com 
DateTheUK.com 
GirlsDateForFree.com 
MatureDating.com 
DatingforParents.com 
LoveChemistry.com 
PlanetSappho.com 
Granamor.com 
 
Following consultation with the Company's lawyers, Easydate believes that there 
is no unfair advantage of using Easydate as the Company name. Easydate has 
offered a without prejudice conversation to try and resolve the matter to the 
mutual benefit of both companies and still awaits a reply. Easydate will update 
the market as appropriate.
