THIS DOCUMENT IS IMPORTANT AND REQUIRES YOUR IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. If you are in any doubt about the contents of this document and the action you should take, you are recommended immediately to seek your own independent advice from a person duly authorised under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (as amended) (“FSMA”) (or, if you are a person outside of the United Kingdom, from a person otherwise duly qualified in your jurisdiction) who specialises in the acquisition of shares and other securities. This document is an AIM admission document which has been drawn up in accordance with the AIM Rules for Companies. This document does not contain an offer of transferable securities to the public in the United Kingdom within the meaning of section 102B of FSMA and is not required to be issued as a prospectus pursuant to section 85 of FSMA. Accordingly, this document does not constitute a prospectus, for the purposes of FSMA and the Prospectus Rules and has not been pre-approved by the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) pursuant to section 85 of FSMA. Application has been made for the Enlarged Share Capital to be admitted to trading on AIM, a market operated by London Stock Exchange Plc (“London Stock Exchange”). It is expected that dealings in the Enlarged Share Capital will commence on AIM on 12 February 2015. The rules of AIM are less demanding than those of the Official List of the United Kingdom Listing Authority (“UKLA”). It is emphasised that no application is being made for admission of these securities to the Official List of the UKLA. The Ordinary Shares are not dealt on any other recognised investment exchange and no application has been or is being made for the Ordinary Shares to be admitted to any other exchange. AIM is a market designed primarily for emerging or smaller companies to which a higher investment risk tends to be attached than to larger or more established companies. AIM securities are not admitted to the Official List of the UKLA. A prospective investor should be aware of the risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after careful consideration and, if appropriate, consultation with an independent financial adviser. Each AIM company is required pursuant to the AIM Rules for Companies to have a nominated adviser. The nominated adviser is required to make a declaration to the London Stock Exchange on Admission in the form set out in Schedule Two to the AIM Rules for Nominated Advisers. Neither the UKLA nor the London Stock Exchange has examined or approved the contents of this document. The Directors, whose names appear on page 9 of this document, and the Company, accept responsibility both individually and collectively for the information contained in this document and compliance with the AIM Rules for Companies. To the best of the knowledge of the Company and the Directors (who have taken all reasonable care to ensure that such is the case), the information contained in this document is in accordance with the facts and contains no omission likely to affect its import. Each of the Directors and the Company accept responsibility accordingly. The whole of the text of this document should be read and your attention is drawn to the section entitled ‘‘Risk Factors’’ in Part II of this document for a discussion of certain factors which should be taken into account in considering whether or not to acquire Placing Shares.
