and retain key staff who deliver to revenue and profitability targets and build
shareholder value is important to OptiBiotix's continued success. Granting
share options helps OptiBiotix compete with remuneration packages offered by
larger companies and incentivises the team to focus both effort and activity on

achieve significant revenue targets which, if achieved, will create substantive
shareholder value".
