Upon Admission, the Company's issued ordinary share capital will consist of 496,190,047 Ordinary Shares with one voting right each. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury. Therefore, the total number of Ordinary Shares and voting rights in the Company will be 496,190,047.

Related Party Transactions
The issue of the Fee Conversion Shares to certain directors of the Company is a related party transaction under AIM Rule 13 of the AIM Rules for Companies. Bill Trew, the Chairman of the Company and an independent director in respect of the Fee Conversions Shares, considers, having consulted with the Company's Nominated Adviser, Strand Hanson Limited, that the terms and conditions of the Fee Conversion Share issues are fair and reasonable insofar as the shareholders of the Company are concerned.
