Related Party Transactions

The grants of options to each of Jonathan MacLeod and John Davis have been identified as related party transactions under Rule 13 of the AIM Rules, however, were not identified as such at the time and accordingly the then Nominated Adviser was not consulted.  The Directors of the Company, excluding Messrs. MacLeod and Davis, consider that, having consulted with the Company's current Nominated Adviser, the terms of those option grants are fair and reasonable insofar as its Shareholders are concerned.
