Additional Information

Michel Fayad is making this disclosure, however, the nature of this transaction is subject to a dispute between himself and the counter party who he understands to be a Delaware company EYCP LLC.  Mr Fayad when the authorised the transfer of the above shares he believed that he was not making a disclosable transaction as it did not fall within Article 19(7)(a) of the Market Abuse Regulation as he was transferring the relevant shares into custody without it being designated to secure a specific credit facility.   Mr Fayad understands that EYCP dispute this and claim that upon transfer the shares were designated to secure a particular facility despite no funds being advanced under that facility to Mr Fayad or any others."
