In aggregate, the exercise of these warrants amounts to a cash subscription of approximately £15,500.

Accordingly, application has been made for the Warrant Shares, which will rank pari passu with the Company's existing ordinary shares, to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will become effective and that dealings will commence on AIM at 8:00a.m. on 6 September 2016. Following Admission, the Company's total issued capital will consist of 8,461,931 ordinary shares. As the Company does not hold any shares in Treasury, this figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the Company following Admission.
