On 8 September 2014 the Company announced its intention to raise up to £20 million of additional capital by way of a placing of new ordinary shares of £0.01 each of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") under the Placing Programme in accordance with the Prospectus published on 12 February 2014 (the "Placing").
The Board is pleased to announce today that the Placing was significantly oversubscribed. Accordingly the Company has raised £20 million of gross proceeds through the Placing, subject to admission occurring, of 17,857,143 new Ordinary Shares. The placing price per new Ordinary Share was 112 pence.
