BENEFITS OF VIRTUAL DATA ROOM
Brought to you by ince, an integrated communications agencyPowered by intralinks
VIRTUAL VS TRADITIONAL DATA ROOM
• Electronic versions of the relevant documents are uploaded onto a secure file server, as opposed to paper
• Multiple bidders/users may be granted access in order to review the documents, concurrently and in private
• The data is encrypted and password protected on a secure file server
• Access to certain documents may be restricted to certain users
• Records may be generated indicating which users have accessed which documents
• 24/7 access from any location with an internet connection

VIRTUAL VS TRADITIONAL DATA ROOM
• Extended access allows users to –• review the documents quicker; and• become familiar with the documents and gain better insight, as opposed to a traditional data room, where the
time constraints may be reflected in the due diligence report produced
• The travelling costs associated with a traditional data room are eliminated
• There is no need to have a representative present to monitor
that documents are not removed from the room or copied, thus reducing costs

VIRTUAL VS TRADITIONAL DATA ROOM
• Depending on the service provider and software selected, the indexing of documents and creation of a virtual data room may take minimum effort
• Creating a traditional data room entails photocopying, indexing and filing an extensive amount of paper, thus the environmental impact of a virtual data room is lower• The cost of procuring a high quality service provider is dependent on factors such as: (i) the number of users who require access, (ii) the volume of documents to be uploaded and (iii) the length of time required
• The costs involved in setting up a traditional data room usually include a fee for the room itself and the labour involved in monitoring the room, copying and indexing the documents and responding to any questions

VIRTUAL VS TRADITIONAL DATA ROOM
• New information may be added to the virtual data room by simply creating a new folder and sending a notification to all the users
• Users are able to view a response to their questions as soon as the answers are posted
• Certain responses may only be viewed by certain users, as a virtual data room is more private
• It is easier to accommodate any last minute bidders who may become involved in the transaction
• Upon completion of the due diligence, the parties may be provided with a CD-Rom containing all the information which was disclosed
• Having the documents in an electronic format also alleviates the storage costs associated with a traditional data room
