Application has been made for the 1,070,960 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission") and dealings are expected to commence on 3 February 2017. The new Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu with the Company's existing Ordinary Shares.

The total number of Ordinary Shares in issue following Admission will be 50,172,046. Accordingly, the figure of 50,172,046 may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
