As Directors of the Company John Barr, Andrew Carroll and John Yong are classified as related parties under the AIM Rules and therefore the grant of New Share Options to each of them is classified as a related party transaction for the purposes of Rule 13 of the AIM Rules. Given that no Directors are deemed to be independent of the grant of the New Share Options, the Company's Nominated Adviser, SP Angel Corporate Finance LLP, considers that the terms of the related party transaction are fair and reasonable insofar as the shareholders of the Company are concerned.
