UK Product Governance Requirements

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements of Chapter 3 of the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook (the "UK Product Governance Requirements") and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the UK Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the Placing Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that the Placing Shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of (a) investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and (b) eligible counterparties, each as defined in UK Product Governance Requirements; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by UK Product Governance Requirements (the "UK Target Market Assessment").

The UK Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Placing. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the UK Target Market Assessment, the Bookrunner is only procuring investors in the United Kingdom which meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

EU Product Governance Requirements

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within: (a) EU Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in financial instruments, as amended ("MiFID II"); (b) Articles 9 and 10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 supplementing MiFID II; and (c) local implementing measures (together, the "EU Product Governance Requirements"), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the EU Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the Placing Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that the Placing Shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of: (a) investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and (b) eligible counterparties (each as defined in MiFID II); and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II (the "EU Target Market Assessment"). Notwithstanding the EU Target Market Assessment, distributors should note that: the price of the Placing Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the Placing Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the Placing Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The EU Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Placing. In all circumstances the Bookrunner will only procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

Proposed Placing

The Bookrunner has entered into the Placing Agreement with the Company pursuant to which, on the terms and subject to the conditions set out in such Placing Agreement, the Bookrunner as an agent for and on behalf of the Company, has agreed to use its reasonable endeavours to procure Placees for the Placing Shares at the Issue Price.

The Placing Shares will, when issued and fully paid, be identical to, and rank pari passu with, the existing Ordinary Shares, including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid on the existing Ordinary Shares after their admission to trading on AIM becoming effective in accordance with the AIM Rules.

Application for listing and admission to trading

Subject to the conditions below being satisfied, it is expected that Admission will become effective on or around 14 July 2026. It is expected that dealings for normal settlement in the Placing Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m. on the same day.

Bookbuild of the Placing

Commencing today, the Bookrunner will be conducting a Bookbuild to determine demand for participation in the Placing. The Bookrunner will seek to procure Placees as agents for the Company as part of this Bookbuild. These terms and conditions give details of the terms and conditions of, and the mechanics of participation in, the Placing.

Participation in, and principal terms of the Placing

  • The Bookrunner is arranging the Placing as an agent of the Company.
  • The Bookbuild will establish the number of Placing Shares to be issued and the aggregate proceeds to be raised through the Placing, which will be agreed between the Bookrunner and the Company following completion of the Bookbuild. The number of Placing Shares to be issued will be announced through the Placing Results Announcement (as defined below) following the completion of the Bookbuild.
  • Participation in the Placing will only be available to persons who are Relevant Persons and who may lawfully be and are invited to participate by the Bookrunner. The Bookrunner (in its independent and individual capacity) and its affiliates are entitled to offer to subscribe for Placing Shares as principals in the Bookbuild.
  • The Bookbuild is expected to close no later than close of business on 10 July 2026 but may close earlier or later, at the discretion of the Bookrunner and the Company. The timing of the closing of the books and allocations will be agreed between the Bookrunner and the Company following completion of the Bookbuild (the "Allocation Policy"). The Bookrunner may, in agreement with the Company, accept offers to subscribe for Placing Shares that are received after the Bookbuild has closed. An offer to subscribe for Placing Shares in the Bookbuild will be made on the basis of these terms and conditions and will be legally binding on the Placee by which, or on behalf of which, it is made and will not be capable of variation or revocation after the close of the Bookbuild.
  • Subject to paragraph (e) above, the Bookrunner reserves the right including with or at the instruction of the Company, not to accept an offer to subscribe for Placing Shares, either in whole or in part, on the basis of the Allocation Policy and may scale down any offer to subscribe for Placing Shares for this purpose.
  • If successful, each Placee's allocation will be confirmed to it by the Bookrunner following the close of the Bookbuild. Oral or written confirmation (at the Bookrunner's discretion) from the Bookrunner to such Placee confirming its allocation will constitute a legally binding commitment upon such Placee, in favour of the Bookrunner and the Company to acquire the number of Placing Shares allocated to it on the terms and conditions set out herein. Each Placee will have an immediate, separate, irrevocable and binding obligation, owed to the Company, to pay to the Bookrunner (or as the Bookrunner may direct) as agent for the Company in cleared funds an amount equal to the product of the Issue Price and the number of Placing Shares which such Placee has agreed to acquire.
  • Subject to paragraphs (g) and (h) above, the Bookrunner reserves the right not to accept bids or to accept bids, either in whole or in part, on the basis of allocations determined at its discretion and may scale down any bids as it may determine, subject to agreement with the Company. The acceptance of bids shall be at the Bookrunner's absolute discretion, subject only to agreement with the Company.
  • No commissions are payable to Placees in respect of the Placing.
  • The Placing Shares will be issued subject to the terms and conditions of this Announcement and each Placee's commitment to subscribe for Placing Shares on the terms set out herein will continue notwithstanding any amendment that may in future be made to the terms and conditions of the Placing and Placees will have no right to be consulted or require that their consent be obtained with respect to the Company's or the Bookrunner's conduct of the Placing.
  • All times and dates in this Announcement may be subject to amendment. The Bookrunner shall notify the Placees and any person acting on behalf of the Placees of any changes.

Conditions of the Placing

The obligations of the Bookrunner under the Placing Agreement in respect of the placing of the Placing Shares are conditional on, amongst other things:

  • the Company having complied with its obligations under the Placing Agreement (to the extent that such obligations fall to be performed prior to Admission); and
  • Admission having occurred not later than 8.00 a.m. 14 July 2026 or such later date as the Company and the Bookrunner may agree, but in any event not later than 8.00 a.m. on 21 July 2026.

If (i) any of the conditions contained in the Placing Agreement in relation to the Placing Shares are not fulfilled or waived by the Bookrunner by the respective time or date where specified, (ii) any of such conditions becomes incapable of being fulfilled or (iii) the Placing Agreement is terminated in the circumstances specified below, the Placing will not proceed and the Placee's rights and obligations hereunder in relation to the Placing Shares shall cease and terminate at such time, all monies received from a Placee pursuant to the Placing shall be returned to such Placee without interest, at the risk of the relevant Placee and each Placee agrees that no claim can be made by the Placee in respect thereof.

The Bookrunner, at its discretion and upon such terms as it thinks fit, may waive compliance by the Company with the whole or any part of any of the Company's obligations in relation to the conditions in the Placing Agreement, save that certain conditions (including as regards the Placing Shares the condition relating to Admission referred to in paragraph (d) above) may not be waived. Any such extension or waiver will not affect Placees' commitments as set out in this Announcement.

None of the Bookrunner nor the Company nor any other person shall have any liability to any Placee (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise) in respect of any decision they may make as to whether or not to waive or to extend the time and/or the date for the satisfaction of any condition to the Placing nor for any decision they may make as to the satisfaction of any condition or in respect of the Placing generally, and by participating in the Placing each Placee agrees that any such decision is within the absolute discretion of the Bookrunner.

Termination of the Placing Agreement

The Bookrunner is entitled to terminate the Placing and the Placing Agreement in respect of the Placing Shares at any time prior to Admission in accordance with the terms of the Placing Agreement if, amongst other things:

  • any of the conditions in the Placing Agreement (other than the condition relating to Admission referred to in paragraph (d) above) which is not waived (if capable of waiver), is not satisfied or becomes incapable, for any reason, of being satisfied or in the opinion of the Bookrunner acting in good faith, is unlikely to be satisfied before Admission; or
  • the Company in the opinion of the Bookrunner, acting in good faith fails, in any material respect, to comply with any of its obligations under the Placing Agreement; or
  • it comes to the notice of any Bookrunner that any statement contained in this Announcement (and any other Placing Document) was untrue, incorrect or misleading at the date of this Announcement or has become untrue, incorrect or misleading in each case in any respect which the Bookrunner considers to be material in the context of the Placing or that any matter which the Bookrunner considers to be material in the context of the Placing has arisen which would, if the Placing were made at that time, constitute a material omission therefrom; or
  • any of the warranties given by the Company in the Placing Agreement was not true as at the date of the Placing Agreement or has ceased to be true and accurate by reference to the facts subsisting at the time when notice to terminate is given, in each case, in any respect which the Bookrunner considers to be material in the context of the Placing; or
  • in the opinion of the Bookrunner, there shall have occurred any material adverse change in, or any development reasonably likely to involve an adverse change in, the condition (financial, operational, legal or otherwise), profits, business, management, property, assets, rights, results, operations or prospects of the Company or the Group which is material in the context of the Company or the Group taken as a whole, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business; or

Placing Procedure

Placees shall acquire the Placing Shares to be issued pursuant to the Placing and any allocation of the Placing Shares to be issued pursuant to the Placing will be notified to them on or around close of business on 10 July 2026 (or such other time and/or date as the Company and the Bookrunner may agree).

Payment in full for any Placing Shares so allocated in respect of the Placing at the Issue Price must be made by no later than 7.00 a.m. (or such other date as shall be notified to each Placee by the Bookrunner) on the expected closing date of the Placing. The Bookrunner or the Company will notify Placees if any of the dates in these terms and conditions should change.

Registration and Settlement

Settlement of transactions in the Placing Shares following Admission of the Placing Shares will take place within the CREST system, subject to certain exceptions. The Bookrunner and the Company reserve the right to require settlement for, and delivery of the Placing Shares to Placees by such other means that they deem necessary if delivery or settlement is not possible within the CREST system within the timetable set out in this Announcement or would not be consistent with the regulatory requirements in the Placee's jurisdiction. Each Placee will be deemed to agree that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery and payment is completed in accordance with either the standing CREST or certificated settlement instructions which they have in place with the Bookrunner. In the event of any difficulties or delays in the admission of the Placing Shares to CREST or the use of CREST in relation to the Placing, the Company and the Bookrunner may agree that the Placing Shares will be issued in certificated form.

Interest is chargeable daily on payments to the extent that value is received after the due date from Placees at the rate of 2 percentage points above the prevailing Sterling Overnight Index Average. Each Placee is deemed to agree that if it does not comply with these obligations, the Bookrunner may sell any or all of the Placing Shares allocated to it on its behalf and retain from the proceeds, for its own account and benefit, an amount equal to the aggregate amount owed by the Placee plus any interest due. By communicating a bid for Placing Shares, each Placee confers on the Bookrunner all such authorities and powers necessary to carry out any such sale and agrees to ratify and confirm all actions which the Bookrunner lawfully takes in pursuance of such sale. The relevant Placee will, however, remain liable for any shortfall below the aggregate amount owed by it and may be required to bear any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax (together with any interest or penalties) which may arise upon any transaction in the Placing Shares on such Placee's behalf.

  • it acknowledges and understands that the Bookrunner and the Company and their respective affiliates and others will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representations, warranties, acknowledgments and undertakings which are irrevocable.

Taxation

Please also note that the agreement to allot and issue Placing Shares to Placees (or the persons for whom Placees are contracting as agent) free of stamp duty and stamp duty reserve tax in the UK relates only to their allotment and issue to Placees, or such persons as they nominate as their agents, direct from the Company for the Placing Shares in question. Such agreement assumes that such Placing Shares are not being acquired in connection with arrangements to issue depositary receipts or to transfer such Placing Shares into a clearance service. If there were any such arrangements, or the settlement related to other dealing in such Placing Shares, stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax may be payable, for which neither the Company nor the Bookrunner would be responsible and Placees shall indemnify the Company and the Bookrunner on an after-tax basis for any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax paid by them in respect of any such arrangements or dealings.

The Company and the Bookrunner are not liable to bear any taxes that arise on a sale of Placing Shares subsequent to their acquisition by Placees, including any taxes arising otherwise than under the laws of any country in the EEA. Each Placee should, therefore, take its own advice as to whether any such tax liability arises and notify the Bookrunner and the Company accordingly. Furthermore, each Placee agrees to indemnify on an after-tax basis and hold each of the Bookrunner and/or the Company and their respective affiliates harmless from any and all interest, fines or penalties in relation to stamp duty, stamp duty reserve tax and all other similar duties or taxes to the extent that such interest, fines or penalties arise from the unreasonable default or delay of that Placee or its agent. If this is the case, it would be sensible for Placees to take their own advice and they should notify the Bookrunner accordingly. In addition, Placees should note that they will be liable for any capital duty, stamp duty and all other stamp, issue, securities, transfer, registration, documentary or other duties or taxes (including any interest, fines or penalties relating thereto) payable outside the UK by them or any other person on the acquisition by them of any Placing Shares or the agreement by them to acquire any Placing Shares.

Selling Restrictions

By participating in the Placing, a Placee (and any person acting on such Placee's behalf) irrevocably acknowledges, confirms, undertakes, represents, warrants and agrees (as the case may be) with the Bookrunner and the Company, the following:

6. it (on its behalf and on behalf of any Placee on whose behalf it is acting) has: (a) fully observed the laws of all relevant jurisdictions which apply to it; (b) obtained all governmental and other consents which may be required; (c) fully observed any other requisite formalities; (d) paid or will pay any issue, transfer or other taxes; (e) not taken any action which will or may result in the Company or the Bookrunner (or any of them) being in breach of a legal or regulatory requirement of any territory in connection with the Placing; (f) obtained all other necessary consents and authorities required to enable it to give its commitment to subscribe for the relevant Placing Shares; and (g) the power and capacity to, and will, perform its obligations under the terms contained in these terms and conditions.

Miscellaneous

When a Placee or person acting on behalf of the Placee is dealing with the Bookrunner, any money held in an account with the Bookrunner on behalf of the Placee and/or any person acting on behalf of the Placee will not be treated as client money within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the FCA made under the FSMA. The Placee acknowledges that the money will not be subject to the protections conferred by the client money rules; as a consequence, this money will not be segregated from the Bookrunner's money in accordance with the client money rules and will be used by the Bookrunner in the course of their own business; and the Placee will rank only as a general creditor of the Bookrunner.
