The Seller and Scott Cauchi are each a related party of the Company under Chapter 11 of the Listing Rules. Pursuant to Listing Rule 11.1.10R, the Transaction constitutes a smaller related party transaction, and this announcement is made in accordance with Listing Rule 11.1.10R(2)(c).

Admission is expected to become effective on 10 May 2022. The allotment and issue of the Consideration Shares is conditional upon Admission becoming effective.

The Consideration Shares will, when issued, be fully paid and rank pari passu with the existing ordinary shares in the capital of the Company.

Total Voting Rights

Following Admission, the Company will have 32,946,371 ordinary shares of 1.89 pence in issue with each share carrying the right to one vote. There are no shares held in Treasury.
