Application has been made for the 6,015,000 New Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the placing and the subscription to be admitted to trading on AIM and on AltX ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will become effective on AIM at 8.00 a.m. (UK time) on 18 June 2015 and thereafter on AltX. The New Ordinary Shares will, when issued and fully paid, rank pari passu with the existing ordinary shares, including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid after the date of Admission.

Following Admission of the New Ordinary Shares, the total issued share capital of the Company will increase to 93,195,808 ordinary shares. The Company does not hold any shares in treasury and therefore the total number of voting rights is 93,195,808 ordinary shares. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a charge to their interest in, the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

Redstone Capital Limited

Following the placing and the subscription, the Redstone Capital Limited ("Redstone") concert party will be interested in 13.73 per cent. of the Company's enlarged issued share capital. The holdings of the Redstone concert party post-Admission and on the assumption of the full conversion of Redstone's Loan Notes and Warrants into ordinary shares will be as follows:
