1. INTRODUCTION

The publication of this Supplementary Prospectus is a regulatory requirement under the UK Prospectus Regulation and the Prospectus Regulation Rules 3.4.1 and 3.4.2 and section 87G of FSMA.

This Supplementary Prospectus is being published because there are two significant new factors concerning the information in the Prospectus, as described in below.

FIRST SIGNIFICANT NEW FACTOR - FINANCING

On 28 April 2023, the Company announced by way of an RIS announcement that it had entered into the following agreements:

Subscription Agreement

The Company and Venus entered into an English law governed subscription agreement dated 28 April 2023 (the "Subscription Agreement"), pursuant to which Venus irrevocably committed to subscribe for up to 4,500,000,000 new Ordinary Shares (the "Subscription Shares") in aggregate at £0.0005 per Subscription Share (the "Subscription Price") (the "Subscription"), comprising:

  • an initial tranche ("Initial Tranche") of 3,375,000,000 Subscription Shares for proceeds of £1,687,500 gross (or £1,603,125 net of a 5% commission chargeable by Venus ("Share Commission"), detailed below), expected to be admitted to a Standard Listing and to trading on the Main Market on or around 10 May 2023 ("Primary Subscription Admission"), which will represent approximately 5.63% of the number of Ordinary Shares to be in issue on Primary Subscription Admission, at which point it is expected that Venus will hold 11,275,000,000 Ordinary Shares equating to 18.79% of the issued Ordinary Shares to be in issue on Primary Subscription Admission; and
  • a Secondary Tranche ("Secondary Tranche") of up to 1,125,000,000 Subscription Shares for proceeds of up to £562,500 gross (or up to £534,375 net of Share Commission), for which admission to a Standard Listing and to trading on the Main Market may be sought by the Company until a long stop date of 31 May 2023 ("Secondary Subscription Admission"), which will represent approximately 1.84% of the number of Ordinary Shares to be in issue on Secondary Subscription Admission, subject to a restriction applicable to Venus (and any persons acting in concert with it (or deemed or presumed to be so acting)) to remain below the 30% mandatory bid threshold under Rule 9,

in each case, assuming that no additional Ordinary Shares are issued by the Company between the date of this Supplementary Prospectus and Primary Subscription Admission or Secondary Subscription Admission, as applicable.

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Company shall pay £112,500 to Venus in respect of agreed costs and expenses incurred by Venus in connection therewith ("Agreed Costs").

The Company has undertaken with Venus that it will not before the first anniversary of the Subscription Agreement allot, issue or agree (conditionally or otherwise) to allot or issue, any new shares or other securities convertible or exchangeable into shares save pursuant to Subscription Agreement or pursuant to its existing obligations to do so in relation to exercise of outstanding warrants, earn-out obligations and staff incentive schemes.

The Subscription Shares will, on issue, rank pari passu in all respects with the Existing Ordinary Shares.

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Company gave certain customary representations, warranties and undertakings in favour of Venus, and Venus provided a customary sanctions confirmation to the Company.

Venus does not have any statutory right of withdrawal upon the publication of any supplementary prospectus to the Prospectus dated 3 October 2022.

The Subscription is not being underwritten.

The Subscription Shares were not contemplated by the Prospectus and are therefore an additional issue of Ordinary Shares that was not known at the time of the publication of the Prospectus.

Venus Commission and Fee Letter

Subject to an English law governed letter agreement between the Company and Venus dated 28 April 2023 (the "Venus Commission and Fee Letter"), the Company agreed in connection with the structuring of the Subscription to pay to Venus:

2

  • a Share Commission equal to 5% of the aggregate subscription price at which the Subscription Shares are issued, to the extent issued; and
  • to the extent that the Company decides that it does not require any portion of the proceeds from the Secondary Tranche, the Company shall be required to pay Venus a break fee of £56,250 or the pro rata proportion thereof.

New Warrant Instrument

Pursuant to a warrant instrument executed by the Company as a deed poll on 28 April 2023 (the "New Warrant Instrument"), the Company agreed to issue up to 1,687,500,000 warrants to Venus in respect of the Initial Tranche and up to 562,500,000 warrants to Venus in respect of the Secondary Tranche (if applicable) (the "New Warrants").

The New Warrants are each exercisable into one new Ordinary Share ("New Warrant Shares") at a price equal to 0.065 pence per share up to a final exercise date of 31 December 2026.

The New Warrants are freely transferrable.

3

Pursuant to the New Warrant Instrument, no application will be made for the New Warrants to be listed or dealt on any recognised investment exchange (as that term is defined in FSMA).

Certificates

The Company shall maintain the Warrant Register in accordance with the conditions of the New Warrant Instrument. Entitlement to the Subscription Rights and other rights attaching to the New Warrants shall be evidenced by the issue to the relevant Warrant Holder of a Certificate. Where a Warrant Holder has transferred, or exercised its Subscription Rights in respect of, some of the New Warrants comprised in a Certificate only, it shall be entitled to receive a new Certificate for the balance of such New Warrants.

Subscription Price

The Subscription Price for each Warrant Share shall be 0.065 pence, which shall not be subject to any adjustment.

Exercise

Subscription Rights shall be exercisable at any time from time to time during the Subscription Period in whole or in part or parts.

The exercise of Subscription Rights shall be effected by the delivery to the Registrars of the original Certificate and a duly completed Notice of Exercise and the requisite remittance of the Subscription Price. Once lodged, a Notice of Exercise will be irrevocable except with the consent of the Company. Compliance must also be made with any statutory requirements for the time being applicable.

The date of the allotment and issue of any New Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise shall be the Allotment Date.

Within 5 Business Days of delivery to the registrars of a valid Notice of Exercise for less than the number of New Warrants the Warrant Holder holds, as evidenced by the accompanying Certificate, the Registrars will issue the Warrant Holder with a new Certificate for the balance of New Warrants not subscribed for.

Each New Warrant will immediately be cancelled once the Subscription Rights attaching thereto have been exercised and New Warrant Shares allotted pursuant to such exercise.

New Warrant Shares allotted will be credited as fully paid and rank pari passu in all respects with the Ordinary Shares, save that, as is customary, they will not rank for any dividends or other distributions declared in respect of a record date falling on or before the Allotment Date.

If, at the time of issue of the New Warrant Shares, the Ordinary Shares (or any of them) are quoted on the Official List of the FCA or permission has been granted for dealings therein on any other recognised stock exchange in any part of the world, the Company will apply to such body for permission to deal in or for quotation or admission of such New Warrant Shares and shall use its reasonable endeavours to secure such permission, quotation or admission, as the case may be.

Any Subscription Rights not exercised prior to the expiry of the Subscription Period and the New Warrants attached to such Subscription Rights will lapse and terminate immediately on such expiry without further notice and shall be of no further force or effect whatsoever.

Winding up

If an effective resolution is passed on or before the last day of the Subscription Period for the voluntary winding up of the Company, then the Company shall give notice to the Warrant Holders stating that such a resolution has been passed and a Warrant Holder shall be entitled at any time within three months after receipt of such notice to be treated as if such Warrant Holder had, immediately before the date of passing of the winding up resolution, exercised such Warrant Holder's New Warrants.

The Warrant Holder shall be entitled to receive out of the assets which would otherwise be available in the liquidation to the Shareholders such an amount receivable out of the assets which would otherwise be available in the liquidation to the Shareholders had the Warrant Holder been a holder of and paid for the Ordinary Shares to which the Warrant Holder would have become entitled by virtue of such exercise, after deduction from such sum an amount equal to the moneys which would have been payable in respect of such shares if the New Warrants had been exercised.

4

The right to exercise the New Warrants will not be permitted in the case of a voluntary winding up for the purpose of reconstruction, amalgamation or merger on terms sanctioned by a Special Resolution of the Warrant Holders in which case the Warrant Holders will be entitled to a substituted warrants of the value of the New Warrant immediately prior to such voluntary winding up.

Takeovers

If at any time an offer or invitation is made by the Company to the Shareholders for the purchase by the Company of any of its Ordinary Shares, the Company shall simultaneously give notice thereof to each Warrant Holder who shall be entitled, at any time whilst such offer or invitation is open for acceptance, to exercise its Subscription Rights to the extent that such rights have not been exercised or lapsed prior to the record date of such offer or invitation so as to take effect, in so far as is reasonably practicable, as if it had exercised its rights immediately prior to the record date of such offer or invitation.

If at any time an offer is made to all Shareholders (or all Shareholders other than the offeror and/or any company controlled by the offeror and/or persons acting in concert with the offeror) to acquire the whole or any part of the issued share capital of the Company and the Company becomes aware that as a result of such offer the right to cast a majority of the votes which may ordinarily be cast on a poll at a general meeting of the Company has or will become vested in the offeror and/or such persons or companies as aforesaid. Further, to the extent that any Subscription Rights not been exercised within one month after such offer shall lapse and no longer be exercisable.

Transfer and transmission of New Warrants

Each New Warrant will be registered and will, subject to applicable laws or regulations, be transferable by instrument of transfer in any usual or common form.

The provisions and restrictions governing transfer of Ordinary Shares in the Articles shall apply to the transfer of New Warrants, and accordingly no transfer of New Warrants may be registered unless a transfer of Ordinary Shares would be permitted. When a Warrant Holder transfers part only of its holding of the New Warrants the old certificate shall be cancelled and a new certificate for the balance of such New Warrants issued without charge.

No beneficial interest in any New Warrant shall be disposed of without the presentation for registration of a transfer and certificate in respect of such New Warrant in accordance with these particulars.

Modification of rights

A modification of the New Warrant Instrument including all or any of the rights attached to the New Warrants (including the Subscriptions Rights) therein may from time to time be altered or abrogated. Such modifications may only be effected by way of a deed poll executed by the Company and save in the case of a modification of a minor nature, with the prior sanction of a Special Resolution of the Warrant Holders.

Deed of Amendment to Venus Warrant Instrument

Pursuant to a deed of amendment to the Venus Warrant Instrument executed by the Company as a deed poll on 28 April 2023 (the "Deed of Amendment to the Venus Warrant Instrument"), the Company committed to extend the final exercise date of all outstanding 8,175,000,000 Venus Warrants from 31 December 2025 for 12 months to 31 December 2026.
