Loan Note Conversions, Holding in Company and Total Voting Rights

Tricor has received notice from Joe Case to convert the remaining £20,000 of loan notes, which were issued under the £40,000 investment facility provided by him to the Company (as announced on 14 February 2012), into ordinary shares of 0.01 of one penny each in the capital of Tricor ("Shares"). This will result in the issuance of 66,666,667 Shares, following which Joe Case will hold a total of 300,833,334 Shares, representing approximately 6.05 per cent. of the issued share capital of the Company.

Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange plc for these 66,666,667 new Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and this is expected to occur on or around 27 March 2012.

Total Voting Rights

Following this issue of 66,666,667 Shares, the total number of Shares in issue is now 4,975,350,337 with each Share carrying the right to one vote. Tricor holds no Shares in treasury. The total number of voting rights in the Company is therefore 4,975,350,337. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they determine if they are required to notify their interest in or a change to their interest in Tricor under the Disclosure Rules and Transparency Rules of the UK Financial Services Authority.
