In this regard, the FSB’s Directorate of Market Abuse has confirmed in a letter dated 28 September 2016,
addressed to Lewis’s legal representatives that the investigation into the allegations of false, misleading,
deceptive statements, promises and/or forecasts made against Lewis, is still on-going.
