Related Party Transaction
The issuance of shares and award of options to the Directors referred to above is classified as a related party transaction for the purposes of the AIM Rules. Andrew Donovan, being the sole independent director, confirms that he considers that the terms of the transaction are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's Shareholders are concerned.
Admission and Total Voting Rights
Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for 6,858,710 Director Salary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission") and it is expected that such Admission will take place at 8.00 a.m. on or around 11 February 2026.
In accordance with the provision of the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority, the Company confirms that, following the issue of the above Director Salary Shares, its issued Ordinary Share capital will comprise 635,922,000 Ordinary Shares. All the Ordinary Shares have equal voting rights and none of the Ordinary Shares are held in Treasury. The total number of voting rights in the Company will therefore be 635,922,000. The above figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations to determine if they are required to notify their interests in, or a change to their interest in, the Company.
