I'm of the opinion it will be vastly oversubscribed. The company are issuing approx 12% new shares, yet PI's are only allowed to partake to about 5% extra. I've applied for about the same again, just to limit my dilution, and I'm sure many others are doing the same. I'm not ecstatic that JM has got an extra 1.2m shares (27% of his holding),when my entitlement is less than 5%. However, I'm encouraged that he's throwing Β£15k of his own money in, which has made me be a bit more confident that I'm investing in future success. Cynics might say he's 'buying' another year or two of a high salary, but he also has 7.5m of 2.5p options, so he's really no need to buy shares now. Bit of a ramble but I hope you get the gist
