The New Bonds, which will not be listed, have an interest rate of 7 per cent. per annum (paid quarterly) and a maturity date of 31 December 2025.
In connection with the issue of the New Bonds, the Company has issued 153,994,543 Warrants to subscribe in cash for new Ordinary Shares at a subscription price of 2.25 pence per Ordinary Share. The Warrants will be exercisable on at least 30 days' notice in the period to 31 December 2025. Further New Bonds may be issued up to a total principal amount of £15 million and further Warrants may therefore be issued during the life of the New Bond.
