No consideration is payable for the grant of the awards which are structured as nominal cost options at an option exercise price of £0.05 per ordinary share.

The performance condition applying to this award, compares the performance of the Company's shareholder return with that of the performance of the AIM 50 Index over the applicable performance period.
This Discretionary Award is subject to a 17-month vesting period to more closely reflect the performance horizon of the revised 12-month priorities announced in January 2023 and also to align with the FY24 year end. Vesting shall be conditional to the achievement of the performance condition and to Dennis being a director or employee within the Company's group at the time of vesting.
The notification is intended to satisfy the Company's obligations under Article 19 of the Market Abuse Regulations.
