   ("Serabi" or the "Company") 
 
   Award of Share Options 
 
   The Company announces that on 27 May 2020 the board of directors of 
Serabi agreed to award in aggregate 2,050,000 new options over ordinary 
shares to employees, directors and officers of the Company. The option 
grant is part of the Company's annual compensation review and the 
issuance is made under the Serabi 2011 Share Option Plan (the "2011 
Plan") which the Company adopted on 28 January 2011 and was re-affirmed 
by shareholders at the Company's AGM held on 15 June 2017.  The 2011 
Plan allows the Company to issue a number of options up to an aggregate 
of 10% of its issued and outstanding common shares. 
 
   The options granted will vest in three equal tranches, with one-third 
vesting and being exercisable immediately on award, one-third vesting on 
the first anniversary of the award and the remainder vesting on the 
second anniversary of the award and the options will lapse three years 
after the date of the award. 
 
   The options have an exercise price of 85 pence per share. The pricing of 
the options represents a three per cent premium to the London closing 
price as at 27 May 2020 of 82.5 pence and  a two per cent premium to the 
London 10 day weighted average price also as of 27 May 2020.  The award 
represents 3.48% of the current issued share capital of 58,959,551 
ordinary shares.

their use of terms and phrases such as "believe", "could", "should" 
"envisage", "estimate", "intend", "may", "plan", "will" or 
the negative of those, variations or comparable expressions, including

expenditures (including the amount, nature and sources of funding 
thereof), competitive advantages, business prospects and opportunities.

assumptions, the Company cannot assure investors that actual results
