Details of the Subscription
The Subscription has been made by Luke Johnson who, following admission of the

in 8,000,000 ordinary shares representing 9.04 per cent. of the Company’s
enlarged issued share capital. As part of the terms of the Subscription, Luke
Johnson will have the right to join the board of the Company, subject to
regulatory due process, and has entered into a 12 month orderly market
agreement in respect of the disposal of any shares.
The New Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu with the existing ordinary
shares. Admission of the New Ordinary Shares is expected to take place on, or
around, 8 October 2021. Completion of the Subscription is conditional on
Admission.
The proceeds of the Subscription will provide the Company with additional
working capital and funding for investment and co-investment opportunities
that are presented to Marechale in connection with its activity for corporate
clients
Total Voting Rights
Following Admission, the Company’s enlarged share capital will comprise
88,461,247 ordinary shares. No shares are held in Treasury. Therefore, the
total number of ordinary shares with voting rights will be 88,461,247. This
figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for calculations by
which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or
a change of their interest in, the Company under the Financial Conduct
Authority’s Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
