Strat Aero plc ("Strat Aero," the "Company" or the "Group")

Grant of Employee Options

Under the terms of the Company's Option Plan, the Company yesterday granted a total of 100,000,000 options to subscribe for ordinary shares in the Company ("Options") to certain employees.

The Options can be exercised in whole or in part, subject to meeting revenue and profit based vesting conditions, at any time up to the fifth anniversary of grant at a price of 0.06p per option, subject to the overriding condition that no Option may be exercised unless the quoted price of the Company's ordinary shares is at least 0.10p.

Included in the Options grant is a grant of 83,333,333 Options to Gary Nel ("Related Party Option Grant"). Mr. Nel, as a director of the Company's subsidiary Geocurve Limited, is considered to be a related party under the AIM Rule for Companies. The issue of Options to Mr. Nel has therefore been treated as a related party transaction in accordance with Rule 13 of the AIM Rules for Companies.

The Directors independent of the Related Party Options Grant, being Trevor Brown, Nigel Burton and Paul Ryan, consider, having consulted with the Company's nominated adviser, SP Angel, that the terms of the Related Party Options Grant are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.
