The Company has raised £608,000 in a Placing of 6,080,000 new ordinary shares at 10 pence per share. Application has been made for the 6,080,000 new ordinary shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and it is expected that Admission will become effective on or around 3 December 2012. Following Admission, there will be a total of 13,052,165 ordinary shares of 10 pence each in the Company in issue.

The Company also confirms its intention to appoint Marcus Yeoman to the Board as Non-executive Director, replacing Graham Barnet who will step down from the Board.
