In aggregate with the £2m convertible loan notes, the Company has conditionally raised £4.4 million net of fees and other expenses related to the Fundraise.

In conjunction with the Placing, the Company is providing shareholders with the opportunity to subscribe for up to 9,671,000 Retail Offer Shares at the Fundraising Price pursuant to the Retail Offer via BookBuild, to raise up to approximately £0.29 million.
