Pursuant to the above exercise, 19,200,000 new ordinary shares of 0.025 pence each in the Company (the "New Ordinary Shares") have been issued and allotted. The New Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares. Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and admission is expected to take place on 10 October 2014. Following admission of the New Ordinary Shares, the enlarged issued share capital will amount to 2,417,620,570 ordinary shares of 0.025p each.
