Due to administrative issues in Zimbabwe, a further 1,814 ZDRs had been subscribed and paid for but not recorded and notified to the Company prior to the announcement.

As a result, the total raised by the Zimbabwe Placing is approximately US$5.850 million before expenses for the issue of a total of 425,765 ZDRs.

Following the issue of the ZDRs, the Company will have a total number of shares in issue of 19,188,073 common shares of no par value each, all of which have voting rights.
