Grant of options to employees

The Company also announces that it has today granted a total of 1,050,000 share options to 13 of the Group's employees (none of whom are Directors or PDMRs) under a Company Share Option Plan scheme (the "CSOP Options") which the Company has put in place.

All of the CSOP Options have been granted with an exercise price of 20 pence, representing the closing mid-market share price on 22 November 2021. The CSOP Options will become exercisable from the third anniversary of the grants until the tenth anniversary of the date of the grants, but will only be exercisable when and if the Company was profitable in the prior accounting year (for these purposes, "profitable" means taking the Company's reported consolidated profit before tax for the relevant prior accounting year and adding back interest, depreciation and amortisation, exceptional items and non-recurring costs).

Capitalised terms in this announcement shall have the meanings given to such terms in the announcement issued by the Company dated 22 November 2021 unless otherwise defined herein.
