Retail Offer by RetailBook

Further to the Company's announcements at 6.17 p.m. and 6.21 p.m. on 2 December 2025 in relation to the Placing and Retail Offer, the Directors now believe that the New Shares to be issued pursuant to the Retail Offer will be eligible for EIS and VCT investments.

In light of this, the Company is extending the duration of the Retail Offer. The Retail Offer is therefore now expected to close at 1 p.m. on 10 December 2025.

Shareholders can claim their EIS certificates by emailing the Company [e-mail]

All other terms relating to the Retail Offer remain unchanged as announced by the Company at 6.21 p.m. on 2 December 2025.

Investors should make their own investigations into the merits of an investment in the Company. Nothing in this announcement amounts to a recommendation to invest in the Company or amounts to investment, taxation or legal advice.

It should be noted that a subscription for New Shares and investment in the Company carries a number of risks. Investors should take independent advice from a person experienced in advising on investment in securities such as the New Shares if they are in any doubt.

AIM is a market designed primarily for emerging or smaller companies to which a higher investment risk tends to be attached than to larger or more established companies. A prospective investor should be aware of the risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after careful consideration and, if appropriate, consultation with an independent financial adviser.

An investment in the Company will place capital at risk. The value of your investment in the Company and any income from it is not guaranteed and can go down as well as rise due to stock market and currency movements. When you sell your investment, you may get back less than the amount originally invested.

Neither past performance nor any forecasts should be considered a reliable indicator of future results.

This announcement should be read in its entirety. In particular, the information in the "Important Notices" section of the announcement should be read and understood.
