Related Party Transaction
John Barr and Andy Carroll, as directors of the Company, are considered to be "related parties" as defined under the AIM Rules and accordingly, their participation in the Director Subscription constitutes a related party transaction for the purposes of Rule 13 of the AIM Rules.
The Director independent of the Director Subscription, being John Youngs (Non-Executive Director), considers, having consulted with the Company's nominated adviser, that the terms of the Director Subscription are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.
Admission to AIM and Total Voting Rights
Further to the announcement this morning, application has now been made for the Placing Shares and the Director Subscription Shares (together the "New Shares"), which will rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares, to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will become effective and dealings will commence on or around 27 February 2020.
Following Admission, the issued share capital of the Company will consist of 1,127,477,634 Ordinary Shares. No shares were held in treasury at the date of this announcement. The total current voting rights in the Company are therefore 1,127,477,634.
Consequently, the above 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 under the Company's Constitution.
