Further to the announcement of 4 February 2022 regarding the resignation of

and Investigation have now been reported to the Board. Having considered these

Company's report and accounts for the financial period ended 3 July 2021 to be
completed by 30 September 2022. Trading in the Company's shares will remain
suspended, with further updates to be made in due course.
