Form 8 Enclosure


Cantor Fitzgerald Europe is the beneficial owner of 1,167,325 Horizon Technology
Group Plc ordinary shares. 1,167,325 of these shares are held to hedge Contract
for Difference ("CFD") positions for clients.

A Long CFD is a product where the client to whom the product is sold is taking a
long economic interest in the underlying share price such that the client can
realise a gain if the price of the underlying securities rises above the
reference price.

The holder of a Long CFD contract will realise a gain if the price of the
underlying security goes up. The holder of a Short CFD contract will realise a
gain if the price of the underlying security goes down.

There are no written or oral agreements between Cantor Fitzgerald Europe and any
clients concerning the control of voting rights in relation to the underlying
shares used to hedge Long CFDs and/or Spread bets.

The CFD contracts are open-ended and there is no rollover into new contracts.
