retains sufficient funds to meet the anticipated costs involved in
any future acquisition. The Company has issued 4,500,000 new
Ordinary shares at the Placing Price to the Company's Broker to
cover commissions and fees associated with advisory services ("Fee

Completion of the Placing is conditional on, inter alia:- the
Placing Shares and the Fee Shares being admitted to listing on the

London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities on or
around 26 January 2024.

Shares proposed to be issued on completion of the Placing. It is
expected that Admission will become effective, and that dealings in
the Placing Shares and Fee Shares are expected to commence, at 8.00
a.m. on 26 January 2024.
The rights attached to the Placing Shares and Fee Shares will be
uniform in all respects and all of the new Placing Shares will rank
pari passu and form a single class for all purposes with the
existing issued shares of GBP0.01 par value in the Company.
Warrants
As part of the placing, the Company has issued 62,448,000
warrants to placees, being 2 warrants for every 1 Placing Share
issued, exercisable at 1.5p either in whole or in part for a period
of 5 years from issuance. The warrants have an accelerator clause
which applies if the Company announces and signs a sale and
purchase agreement within 60 months of Admission. The Company will
serve notice on the warrant holders to exercise their warrants in
this event. When the Company serves notice, any warrants remaining
unexercised after 7 calendar days following the notification of the
