Completion of Placing

The Company is pleased to confirm that, pursuant to the announcement earlier today, 3.6 million new Ordinary Shares (the "Placing Shares") have been placed by Investec Bank plc ("Investec") at a price of 102.0 pence per Placing Share with existing and new institutional investors, raising gross proceeds of £3.7 million (the "Placing").

Applications have been made to the Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA") for admission of the Placing Shares to the premium listing segment of the Official List of the UK Listing Authority (the "Official List") and to the London Stock Exchange plc for admission to trading of the Placing Shares on its main market for listed securities (together, "Admission"). It is expected that Admission will take place at 8.00 a.m. on 24 April 2014 and that dealings in the Placing Shares on the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities will commence at that time.

The Placing Shares will, when issued, be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing Ordinary Shares, including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid in respect of such shares after the date of issue of the Placing Shares.
