Block Admission
The Company announces that an application has been made for a
block admission to trading on AIM in respect of 700,000 ordinary
shares of 1p each ("New Ordinary Shares") in the share capital of
the Company (the "Block Admission"). It is expected that the Block
Admission will become effective on 29 November 2021.
The New Ordinary Shares will be issued from time to time
pursuant to the Company's employee share schemes (the "Incentive
Schemes"), as follows:
-- 300,000 shares in respect of the Long Term Incentive Plan;
-- 300,000 shares in respect of the Share Option Plan; and
-- 100,000 shares in respect of the Employee Share Purchase Plan.
When issued, the New Ordinary Shares will be credited as fully
paid and will rank pari passu with the existing ordinary shares of
the Company.
The Block Admission is considered adequate for anticipated
exercises of options under the Incentive Schemes for the
foreseeable future.
As at 24 November 2021, the Company's issued share capital
consisted of 76,007,757 ordinary shares of 1p each with voting
rights. The Company's issued share capital will not change as a
result of the Block Admission. The Company does not hold any
ordinary shares in Treasury.
