| EGM Record Date Latest date for receipt of Proxy Form | 24 April 5:00 p.m. (London time) on 7 May | |

The Company's shares will be suspended from trading at 7:30 a.m. on 12 May 2020 in advance of the EGM, as the commencement of the liquidation process will render the Company inappropriate for admission to trading on AIM. Conditional on the approval of Shareholders at the EGM, the Board proposes to appoint John Royle and Margot MacInnis of Grant Thornton Specialist Services (Cayman) Limited as the joint liquidators of the Company (together the "Liquidator"). The Board will continue to manage the Company pending the De-Listing. Immediately upon and with effect from the appointment of the Liquidator at the EGM, the powers of the Board will cease, and the Liquidator will wind up the affairs of the Company. Admission of the Company's shares to trading on AIM will be cancelled with effect from 7:00 a.m. on 13 May 2020, following which the Company's shares will no longer be tradeable.
No mechanism to enable the Company's shares to be traded following cancellation will be made available to shareholders and the Company's shares will not be transferable once the Company enters liquidation without the consent of the Liquidators.
