The Subscription has been made by Chris Kenning who, following admission of the New Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM (“Admission”) will have an interest in 10,480,000 ordinary shares representing 9.89 per cent. of the Company’s enlarged issued share capital.

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, 30 June 2023. Completion of the Subscription is conditional on Admission.

These shares are being issued at a significant premium to current market price.  As stated in Marechale Capital’s investment update of 11^th May 2023, the Company’s last reported balance sheet showed net assets of approximately £3.48 million, representing approximately 3.6 pence of value per share in issue.

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 105,941,247 ordinary shares. No shares are held in Treasury. Therefore, the total number of ordinary shares with voting rights will be 105,941,247.
