* based on the Enlarged Issued Share Capital following the
Placing and the Option Exercise of 198,117,442 Ordinary Shares
2017 LTIP Awards
On 23 July 2015, the Company made awards to certain directors
and senior management of share options pursuant to the terms of the
2015 Long Term Incentive Plan, with a view to rewarding value
already added by these individuals to the business, and
incentivising them for future performance.
These share options were issued with the principal aim, which
has now been achieved, of becoming fully exercisable on the Company
achieving a doubling of the share price from the 34p placing price
in the fund raising announced on 18 December 2014.
The principles underpinning the 2017 LTIP are very much the same
as the 2015 LTIP insofar that the awards will be subject to the
following challenging performance criteria: one half become
eligible to vest on the Company's share price reaching 98 pence
over 30 consecutive business days with the remainder becoming
eligible to vest on the Company's share price reaching 136 pence
(being double the target price of the 2015 LTIP) over 30
consecutive business days.
Options issued pursuant to the 2017 LTIP will not vest until the
third anniversary of the grant date. Thereafter, any Ordinary
Shares issued in respect of the exercise of any of these options
cannot be sold until the fourth anniversary of the grant date, and
are subject to continued service throughout as well as the
aforementioned achievement of specific performance targets relating
to the Company's share price. These options each have an exercise
price of 1 pence per Ordinary Share.
Awards have been made to the following directors of the Company
pursuant to the 2017 LTIP (the "Awards"):
Name Position 2017 LTIP Options

Chief Customer
Barnaby Kent Officer 1,200,000
------------------ ----------------- ------------------
Following the Option Exercise and the Awards, there are now
13,317,333 options over Ordinary Shares in issue representing 6.7%
of the Enlarged Issued Share Capital.
Application for Admission and Total Voting Rights
As previously set out, application has been made to the London
Stock Exchange for the 2,205,000 New Ordinary Shares issued
pursuant to the exercise of share options as set out above to be
admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission") and it is expected that
Admission will become effective and trading will commence at 8.00
a.m. on 27 March 2017.
In accordance with the UK Financial Conduct Authority's
Disclosure and Transparency Rule 5.6.1, immediately following
Admission the issued share capital of the Company will be
198,117,442 ordinary shares of 1 pence each. The total number of
voting rights in the Company will therefore be 198,117,442 which
may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations
by which they will determine if they are required to notify their
interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company under the
FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
Capitalised terms not otherwise defined in this announcement
shall have the same meaning ascribed to such terms in the
announcement released today at 7.00 a.m. unless the context
requires otherwise.
