It's not as simple as that, and getting it wrong could mean a painful adjustment when the VAT man checks the books. If you have a real sale about to happen I would check with the VAT office although I doubt that they would give you an exact answer.
It is safer to quote/charge VAT unless you can refer to the specific rule which would allow exemption. If you are selling to a VAT registered entity within EC Member States you should not need to add VAT, but you do need to check their VAT number and identity if possible.
