Rule 10b5-1 plans permit directors, officers and other company insiders to adopt, at times when they are not in possession of material, non-public information, written plans for trading securities in a non-discretionary, pre-scheduled manner in the future. These pre-planned trades can then be executed at a later date, as spelled out in the plan, without further action by the director, officer or other company insider and without regard to any subsequent non-public information the individual might have received.

Dr Guy's plan provides for the exercise and sale of options over up to 440,388 Ordinary 0.1p Shares (equivalent to 36,699 American Depository Shares), between 9 December 2016 and 1 April 2017.

Following exercise of these options, Dr Guy will continue to hold 952,034 options over Ordinary Shares (equivalent to 79,336 ADSs) and will continue to be the beneficial owner of an additional 12,847,852 Ordinary Shares (equivalent to 1,070,654 ADSs).

The transactions under the plan will be disclosed publicly through Form 144 and Form 4 filings as required by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and by announcement through a Regulatory Information Service, as required by the EU Market Abuse Regulation.
