Convertible Loan Update
As announced on 30 September 2022, the Company entered into an agreement for a
convertible loan facility for up to £250,000 ("Convertible Loan") with
Sanderson Capital Partners Limited ("Sanderson Capital"), which consists of an
initial drawdown of £125,000 followed by a further drawdown expected three
months thereafter.
As at 30 June 2023, an advance of £30,000 had been received against the
£125,000 and no shares or warrants issued. As at 28 September 2023, a total
advance of £61,000 had been received against the £125,000 and no shares or
warrants have been issued.
At each £125,000 drawdown, the Company will issue new ordinary shares to
Sanderson Capital equal to 10 percent of the drawdown value at an issue price
of the 10-day volume weighted average price prior to the date of drawdown. A
further announcement will be made on the date of each drawdown event.
Sanderson Capital will be able to convert part or all of the Convertible Loan
facility in minimum increments of £5,000, with the conversion price being
fixed at the lower of i) 0.25p; or ii) 90% of the 5-day volume weighted
average price from the first day of dealings of the Company's restoration to
trading on AIM. The Convertible Loan facility is interest-free.
As part of the Convertible Loan facility agreement, Sanderson Capital will be
issued new ordinary shares and a warrant over new ordinary shares in the
Company, of which the issue price and exercise price is 0.25 pence per share,
being the closing mid-price of the Company's ordinary shares on 30 September
2022, the first day of dealings following the release of the Company's final
results for the year ended 30 September 2021, and the interim results for the
period ended 31 March 2022 which enabled the lifting of the suspension and
restoration to trading of the Company's ordinary shares on AIM.
The new ordinary shares and warrants over new ordinary shares will be issued
after the next general meeting of the Company and a further announcement
setting out the details will be made at the time of issue.
