Rollover of Director’s REPO

Following previous announcements made by the Company regarding the rollover of the Sale & Repurchase Agreement (the “REPO”) entered into between the Company’s CEO and Executive Chairman, Professor Francesco Gardin, and MC Strategies AG (“MCS”), the Company has been informed that Professor Gardin and MCS have agreed to amend the repurchase price and the repurchase date of the REPO as follows:

    --  The term of the REPO under which Professor Gardin is to repurchase
        5,000,000 ordinary shares of 0.25p each in the Company (“Ordinary
        Shares”) has been extended from 30 September 2024 to 31 December 2024.
    --  The repurchase price for the 5,000,000 Ordinary Shares has been amended
        from 3.441p to per 3.483p share (representing a 5% yearly interest rate
        on the initial purchase price of 3p). All other terms of the REPO remain
        unchanged.

 

In addition to the 5,000,000 Ordinary Shares which are the subject of the REPO, Professor Gardin is currently the beneficial owner of further 29,284,149 Ordinary Shares. The 29,284,149 remaining shares represent the 2.27% of the Company’s total issued share capital.
