("Chariot", the "Company" or the "Group")

Grant of Executive Directors' Deferred Share Awards and Performance Units in 2014 Value Creation Plan

In line with best practice corporate governance for AIM companies, Chariot aims to reward its Executive Directors by aligning their total remuneration packages with the achievement of appropriate Corporate short and long term goals which include relevant Total Shareholder Return metrics.

As a result, the Company announces the award of deferred shares under the Company's Long Term Incentive Share Scheme ("LTIP"), as part of the bonus payable under the Executive Director 2013 annual bonus scheme, and a one-off grant of performance units under the Company's 2014 Value Creation Plan adopted by the Board on the 30th January 2014 ("VCP") for Executive Directors.

2013 Annual Bonus - Deferred Share Awards

On 11 April 2014, the following Executive Directors were granted deferred share awards in the form of nil cost options over 963,906 shares under the LTIP. Subject to the continued employment of the Executive Directors, these deferred share awards will vest on 1 January 2017 and will remain exercisable until 10 April 2024.

2014 Value Creation Plan Awards

On 11 April 2014, the following Executive Directors were granted awards over performance units ("PUs") under the VCP;

No payment has been made for the grant of these awards and the performance units have no value at grant.

Performance units will normally convert into a certain number of ordinary shares (in the form of nil cost options) at the end of the VCP four year performance period based on the Company's market capitalisation at the end of this period as a multiple of its market capitalisation at 1 January 2014 (the "Value Multiple"). Provided that the Value Multiple achieved at the end of the period reaches five (the "Hurdle"), representing a fivefold increase in market capitalisation at 1 January 2014, participants will be entitled to receive in aggregate 1.25% of the value created for shareholders over this period. "Value created" is the difference between market capitalisation at the beginning and end of the performance period and excludes the impact of new equity raised, share buybacks and special dividends. This entitlement increases on a straight line basis to 5.85% of the value created if the Value Multiple is equal to or greater than nine, representing a ninefold increase in market capitalisation at 1 January 2014. The maximum number of ordinary shares that can be created under the VCP is capped at 5% of Chariot's fully diluted issued share capital at the date of conversion.
