Related Party Transaction
The aggregate subscription for new ordinary shares by Martyn Rose and Neil Kirton is considered a related party transaction under the AIM Rules for Companies.

The Independent Directors, having consulted with Cenkos Securities plc, the Company's nominated adviser, consider that the terms of the participation in the Subscription by the Martyn Rose and Neil Kirton is fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.
The Company has applied for admission of 600,000 new ordinary shares of 10p each to be admitted to trading on AIM and admission is expected to occur at 8:00am on 3 August 2016.
