SUBSCRIPTION SHARES

APPOINTMENT OF TRUSTEE AND CANCELLATION

Following the suspension of the listing of the Company's Subscription Shares from 7.30 a.m. on 29 April 2014, the Company confirms that a trustee has been appointed over the outstanding subscription shares which have not been elected to be exercised.

The Company has now also requested that the UK Listing Authority cancel the listing of the outstanding Subscription Shares on 30 May 2014 and intends that the listing be cancelled from this date. To the extent the outstanding Subscription Share rights have not been exercised by the trustee before 13 May 2014, being 14 days after the date of the company's Annual General Meeting, Subscription Shares outstanding will be bought back by the Company for a nominal amount and cancelled prior to 30 May 2014.
