The funds raised will be used for general working capital purposes and to help fund the current litigation to recover past investments.
The issue of the Placing Shares is conditional, inter alia, on admission to trading on AIM (“Admissionâ€). Application has been made for the Admission of the Shares and it is expected to occur at 8.00 am on 21 July 2017.

Following Admission, the Company's enlarged issued share capital will comprise 302,745,131 Ordinary Shares.
