Bahamas Fund Update

Further to the Company's announcement, on 13 March 2020, regarding the allotment of 35,337,328 ordinary shares (the "Fund Shares") to BPC Investment Fund Ltd (the "Fund"), admission to trading on AIM of the Fund Shares will not take place today as previously announced, as the Fund is yet to complete certain necessary administrative processes in The Bahamas. The Fund's ability to undertake this action has been significantly hampered and thus delayed by the State of Emergency declared and ongoing business disruption caused by the national response to the Covid-19 outbreak in The Bahamas. The expected admission date for the Fund Shares will be announced once timing for completion of the necessary administrative processes is known with certainty. The Company notes that, notwithstanding the delay in allotment, the subscription funds, amounting to approximately $0.9 million in respect of the Fund Shares, resides in the Mutual Fund Account.
