As such, a total of 35,111,107 New Ordinary Shares have been placed via the Placing and Broker Option, raising gross proceeds for the Company of approximately £2.37 million, which represents approximately 12.3 per cent. of the Company's Enlarged Share Capital.

Admission and dealings in the Placing Shares is expected to take place at 8.00 a.m. on 5 August 2019.
