Additionally, the Company also confirms the issue of 1,250,000 ordinary shares due under the third
and final tranche of the Company’s performance rights plan (the “Performance Rights”) for Non-
Executive Directors.

The number of New Ordinary Shares issued to each Non-Executive Director in lieu of remuneration
for the quarter ended 31 March 2021 was calculated as follows:

* As part of the Company’s on-going cost saving exercise David Hathorn waived his remuneration for

Performance rights
The Company also confirms it has issued 1,250,000 ordinary shares to satisfy the unconditional
vesting of the third and final tranche of the Performance Rights issued to certain Non-Executive
Directors on 29 March 2021, being the third anniversary of admission to trading on AIM. The previous
two tranches were announced on 15 April 2019 and 7 April 2020.
Consistent with the previous two tranches, the following is the breakdown of the ordinary shares
issued under the Performance Rights:
Number of Shares Amount to be paid
David Hathorn 500,000 US$500.00
David Netherway 250,000 US$250.00
Jonathan Trollip 250,000 US$250.00
Timothy Keating 250,000 US$250.00
Total 1,250,000 US$1,250.00
Accordingly, a total of 2,353,296 ordinary shares of US$0.001 each (being 1,103,296 ordinary
shares in respect of Directors Remuneration Shares and 1,250,000 ordinary shares in respect of
Performance Rights as detailed above) have today been issued. Application has been made for the
admission of 2,353,296 ordinary shares of US$0.001 each on AIM, the Johannesburg Stock
Exchange and the Australian Securities Exchange with admission expected to take place on
Wednesday 14 April 2021.
For ASX’s purposes, and having previously obtained shareholder approvals for the issues, the
shares are issued under ASX Listing Rule 10.11 (Remuneration Shares) and 10.14 (Performance
Rights) respectively.
Following this issue, the Company's issued share capital consists of 2,454,121,469 ordinary shares.
No shares are held in treasury. Accordingly, the total number of voting rights in the Company
is 2,454,121,469.
The above figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which
they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in,
the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency
Rules.
Cancellation of certain Performance Rights and Options
Following the determination by the Company that the applicable vesting conditions within each
category would not be achieved, a total of 7,500,000 Performance Rights and Unlisted Options
previously issued have been cancelled as follows:
