Application for admission to trading

The SIP Shares will rank pari passu with the existing ordinary

with the requirements of the EU Market Abuse Regulation.
Total Voting Rights
Following Admission, the Company's
issued share capital will consist of 43,234,133 ordinary shares. No
shares are held in treasury. Therefore, the total number of
voting rights in the Company is 43,234,133. Shareholders may use
this figure 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
