The Placing, which was over-subscribed, is with certain existing and new investors.

Application has been made for the Placing Shares to be admitted to trading AIM with admission expected to occur on 21 March 2018. The Placing Shares will rank pari passu with the existing ordinary shares of nominal value 0.25p each in the capital of the Company (the "Ordinary Shares").
Following admission, the Company's enlarged issued share capital will comprise 433,803,192 Ordinary Shares.
