An application has been made for the admission of the further B Ordinary Shares to be issued under the Offer to a listing on the FCA's Official List and to trading on the main market of the London Stock Exchange.

(ii) 3.0% for investors who have invested in the Offer through an intermediary and have received upfront advice including investors who are investing through intermediaries/advisers using financial platforms,
or such lower percentage in each case as may be agreed by the Company and PIM.
