This represents approximately 37 per cent. of the Open Offer Shares offered and the Company has conditionally raised approximately £259,000 (before expenses) through the Open Offer.  This is in addition to the £1,255,000 (before expenses) raised through the Placing announced on 7 December 2012. All Qualifying Shareholders who submitted valid acceptances to take up Open Offer Shares will be allocated such number of Open Offer Shares as applied for.

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the Open Offer Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM. It is expected that such Admission will become effective and that dealings will commence at 8.00 a.m. on 11 January 2013.

The Open Offer Shares will, when issued and fully paid, rank pari passuin all respects with the Existing Ordinary Shares including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid after the date of Admission.
