Management Incentive Scheme

The Company announces that it has granted share options to Martin Harrison, Fulcrum's Chief Executive Officer. As previously announced, the scheme intends to align the incentives of key management with the Company's long-term growth strategy through the issuance of growth share scheme shares ("GSS Shares") in Fulcrum Group Holdings Limited, a subsidiary of the Company.

GSS Shares have been awarded:

Vesting conditions

There are two vesting points in the scheme and each of these have different vesting criteria:

· Phase 1 - in order for 60% of the GSS Shares to vest, Fulcrum must achieve a share price that averages at least 100 pence over a period of 20 consecutive days and a holding period of two years following the grant must have completed.

· Phase 2 - in order for the remaining 40% of the GSS Shares to vest, Fulcrum must achieve a share price that averages at least 130 pence over a period of 20 consecutive days and a holding period of three years following the grant must have completed.

The GSS Shares have a nominal value of £0.00001 pence per share and carry a put option allowing the participants to sell their shares to the Company at nominal value on achieving the share price performance hurdle and fulfilling the holding period criteria. The GSS Shares may also be converted into new ordinary shares in the Company, subject to achievement of the same performance criteria. Any cash value received shall be determined by the Company's share price at the point of conversion.

Martin Harrison's total beneficial interest in the Company, including his wife's shares, is 3,425,787 Ordinary Shares.
