("Pathfinder" or the "Company")

Transaction with a Related Party

Pathfinder notes recent online media allegations against its chief executive officer, Nicholas Trew, in relation to a personal loan application in 2016. The Company has investigated the matter and is satisfied that Mr Trew provided relevant details in his loan application and that there was no wrongdoing by Mr Trew.

In February 2016, Mr Trew elected to receive GBP7,450 of his deferred salary entitlement and subsequently elected to return this amount to the Company. As result of the investigation, the Company announces that the return to the Company of this sum of deferred salary entitlement constitutes a transaction with a related party and should have been separately disclosed as such in the Company's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016. This was instead accounted for as part of the deferred salary owed to directors in those financial statements. There is no interest chargeable on this amount nor any set repayment date.
