Director/PDMR Option Exercise and

Total Voting Rights
 
The Company announces that Ms Pippa Clark, Director, has exercised options over 200,000 Ordinary Shares of 1p in the Company at 4.50 pence per share.
 
The 200,000 new Ordinary Shares of 1p issued in fulfilment of the exercise of these options form part of the block listing authority of 20 March 2019 and 30 September 2021 in respect of employee share options and these shares rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares in issue.  
Following this issue, the Company has the ability to issue a further 7,607,000 Ordinary Shares under its block listing facility.  
As a result of this issue, the total number of ordinary shares in issue now stands at 67,652,143 and the total number of voting rights in the Company is therefore 67,652,143.
The above figure of 67,652,143 may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculation by which they may determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
Following this transaction, Ms Clark's holding in the Company will be 851,818 shares, 1.26% of the expanded share capital of the Company.
