Where a Holder exercises its Subscription Rights conditionally on a Sale Event, if such Sale Event does not take place within  60 days of the date of the Sale Notice the Notice of Exercise shall cease to have an effect and shall be deemed to be revoked.   21.  The  automatic  revocation  or  cancellation  of a  Notice  of Exercise  in  accordance  with  Condition 20 shall be without prejudice to the relevant Holder's Subscription Rights, which will remain in full force and will be available for subsequent exercise by the Holder in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant Instrument.   22.  If on a Sale Event a Holder has not exercised all of its Subscription Rights by the date that is  one Business Day prior to completion of the Sale Event then, subject to and conditional on the Sale Event completing, any Subscription Rights which have not by then been exercised shall, provided that immediately prior to the Sale Event the Fair Market Value of one Warrant Share (or other security issued on the exercise of a Warrant) is greater than the Subscription Price on such date, the Holder(s) shall be deemed to have automatically exercised its/their Subscription Rights in respect of all unexercised Warrants on such date and the Company shall issue the resulting Warrant Shares.   If the Fair Market Value of one Warrant Share (or other security issued on the exercise of a Warrant) is less than the Subscription Price on the date of Exit Date, the Warrants shall lapse.      10 30954807.doc
 

 
 
       General   23.  If a Notice of Exercise is cancelled or is deemed to have been revoked pursuant to Condition  19, no such allotment shall take place and the Company will immediately return to the relevant Holder any remittance originally submitted. A subsequent unconditional exercise of the Subscription Rights shall be deemed to override and supersede any conditional exercise.   Automatic exercise on failure to give notice   24.  If the Company fails to give the Sale Notice as required by Condition  19 (subject at all times to  the Company's obligations under the Code, the AIM Rules, all applicable law and any other regulations (including the Market Abuse Regulation) given its quoted status on AIM and NASDAQ) then, provided that immediately prior to the Sale Event the Fair Market Value of one Warrant Share (or other security issued on the exercise of a Warrant) is greater than the Subscription Price on such date, conditional upon completion of the Sale Event, the Holder(s) shall be deemed to have automatically exercised its/their Subscription Rights in respect of all unexercised Warrants on such date at the Subscription Price.   Automatic exercise upon the Expiration Date   25.  If, on the Expiration Date, the Fair Market Value of one Warrant Share (or other security issued  on the exercise of a Warrant) is greater than the Subscription Price on such date, the Holder(s) shall be deemed to have automatically exercised its/their Subscription Rights in respect of all unexercised Warrants on such date.  In such circumstances, the Company shall (subject at all times to the Company's obligations under the Code, the AIM Rules, all applicable law and any other regulations (including the Market Abuse Regulation) given its quoted status on AIM and NASDAQ) send a notice to the Holder(s) within 10 Business Days of the Expiration Date requiring them to pay up an aggregate cash amount equal to Subscription Price for each of the relevant Warrant Shares.   Representations, warranties and covenants of the Company   26.
