3.         Potential merger

On 31 October 2012 the Board announced that the Company had recently entered discussions with Ortus VCT to merge the two companies. Any merger would be completed pursuant to a s.110 scheme of reconstruction under the Insolvency Act 1986 by transferring the assets and liabilities of Ortus VCT PLC to the Company in consideration for new shares in the Company. A merger on this basis will be outside the provisions of The City Code on Takeovers and Mergers.

The Board is not aware of any other events or transactions that have taken place between 30 June 2012 and the date of publication of this statement which would have had a material impact on the financial position of the Company.
