Accordingly, following completion of the Fundraising, Mr. Bird will be interested in 53,954,560 Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 10.00 per cent. of the Company's enlarged Ordinary share capital and Mr Samtani will be interested in 41,289,460 Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 7.65 per cent. of the Company's enlarged Ordinary share capital.
Use of Proceeds: The net proceeds from the Placing and the Subscription will be used by the Company general working capital purposes.
Related Party Transaction: As Mr. Bird and Mr Samtani are Directors of the Company and in light of the size of their subscriptions, their participation in the Fundraising is being treated as a related party transaction pursuant to Rule 13 of the AIM Rules for Companies. Accordingly, the independent directors, being Mr Michael Nolan and Mr Alex Borelli, having consulted with the Company's Nominated Adviser, consider Mr. Bird and Mr Samtani's participation in the Fundraising to be fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.
Further Details on the Fundraising: Pursuant to the Placing and the Subscription, in aggregate, 91,686,246 new Ordinary Shares (the "Fundraising Shares") will be issued at the Placing Price to certain new investors and Colin Bird and Raju Samtani conditional upon admission of the Fundraising Shares to trading on AIM ("Admission").

Each of the participants in the Fundraising will also receive one warrant exercisable at 0.3 pence for each Fundraising Share which they have subscribed valid for two years from Admission.
The Fundraising Shares represent, in aggregate, approximately 16.99 per cent. of the Company's enlarged issued share capital (as enlarged by the issue of the Fundraising Shares). The Fundraising Shares will be fully paid and rank pari passu in all respects with the Company's existing Ordinary Shares.
Application to trading on AIM: The Fundraising is conditional on admission of the Fundraising Shares to trading on AIM ("Admission"). Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the total of 91,686,246 Fundraising Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM.
