MelodyVR announces launch of highly anticipated beta app on Christmas Eve
and the appointment of Nikki Lambert as Vice President, Marketing
EVR Holdings plc (AIM: EVRH), a leading creator of virtual reality content, is pleased to announce that its subsidiary MelodyVR Ltd ('MelodyVR') will launch a beta version of its music platform on 24 December 2016.
MelodyVR will launch a staged beta programme to a closed group of users who will experience advanced platform functionality and exclusive content, accessible via Samsung Gear VR devices, during the holiday period and beyond. The initial user group, comprising a broad range of geographies and demographics, aims to collect insights and data relating to how consumers interact with the music service.
With a number of new Virtual Reality ('VR') Head-Mounted Displays ('HMDs') released throughout October and November 2016, including PlayStation VR and Google Daydream, consumers are now enjoying even greater accessibility to VR devices and an ever broadening variety of VR experiences. Mark Zuckerberg announced on the 5 October 2016 at Oculus Connect 3 in San Jose, that the number of active Samsung Gear VR users has now hit 1,000,000 per month. The timing of MelodyVR's beta launch and choice of launch platform coincides with a period of unprecedented accessibility to VR headsets with consumer demand for VR music content reaching an all-time high.
The Company is also pleased to announce the appointment of Nikki Lambert, as VP of Marketing. Nikki brings in-depth marketing knowledge, established through 15 years of creating and building global consumer brands in the technology and music space. In her 10 years with the Virgin Group Nikki was instrumental in launching and managing multiple mobile, radio and festival businesses across Asia, Africa and Europe. Prior to joining MelodyVR, Nikki spent five years working at Spotify. One of the first senior marketing hires into the organisation, Nikki led international marketing efforts, including launches in Germany, Indonesia and Japan in parallel with growing the brand and subscriber base in wider Europe, Spotify's most mature region.
In this newly created role, Nikki will report to Anthony Matchett, building and leading the marketing organization. Responsible for strategic and operational marketing efforts and launch activities for the company, Nikki will also drive brand development and all consumer insight efforts, including management of the beta programme.
Speaking about the upcoming launch, Anthony Matchett, CEO of EVR Holdings, said: "Following on from the overwhelming success of our partnership with Telefonica, we are delighted to announce the upcoming launch of our beta programme and the appointment of Nikki Lambert as VP of Marketing. The 2016 holiday season is a time of particular interest to our company and we look forward to seeing increased user adoption and market penetration of virtual reality devices throughout this period and beyond. On the 24 December 2016, we will launch a staged beta programme reaching up to one thousand initial users throughout Europe and the USA. The programme, managed internally and available to select Samsung Gear VR users via Oculus home, will enable our company to harness data and feedback regarding user interaction and content preferences as consumers utilise their VR devices throughout the holiday period. As the VR ecosystem develops over the coming months, we look forward to inviting even more users to our beta programme in advance of the wider consumer release of our product in 2017."

New Commercial Distribution Agreements
Plant Health Care® (AIM: PHC), a leading provider of novel patent-protected biological products to global agriculture markets, is pleased to announce four new commercial distribution arrangements, which together represent important progress in driving sales growth in 2017 and beyond.
– Plant Health Care has reached agreement with Talc U.S.A. to launch Inceptive™, a novel product containing PHC's patented Harpin™ 𝜶β technology, which will be mixed with a Talc U.S.A. seed lubricant for corn seed treatment in the USA. Inceptive has been shown in replicated trials to bring substantial benefits on corn such as improved vigour, heightened defense responses and increased yield. This agreement will provide PHC with additional access to the 90 million acre corn market in the USA.
– Plant Health Care conducted a product demonstration programme, in conjunction with the Florida Fruit & Vegetable Association, to promote the use of PHC's Employ® product (containing PHC's patented Harpin 𝜶β technology), aimed at reducing the impact of fruit drop in the presence of citrus greening, caused by the Huang Long Bing (HLB) bacterium. This disease has caused devastating damage in citrus in Florida over the last four years, with up to 80% of trees across the state reported as affected. Use of Employ has been shown in replicated trials to reduce losses by more than 10% in the presence of citrus trees infected by HLB. Based on these encouraging results, PHC will be distributing Employ in Florida directly with regional distributors.
– Plant Health Care has reached agreement with EDAF Unipessoal LDA, to distribute Plant Health Care's proprietary ProAct® and Myconate® products in Portugal.
– Plant Health Care continues to build on its recent success in South Africa with its Harpin 𝜶β and Myconate products and is now preparing to expand distribution to 23 countries in sub-Saharan Africa through its distribution agreement with DuxAgri (Pty) Ltd. Plant Health Care is creating significant momentum in the region by concentrating sales to higher value crops, such as sugar cane, vegetables, citrus, pears and macadamia nuts which all receive multiple product applications per year.
Dr Chris Richards, Executive Chairman and Interim CEO of Plant Health Care, commented: "Over the last three years, we have steadily built compelling evidence of the efficacy of products based on the Company's patented Harpin technology. The distribution arrangements announced today reflect further progress in developing sales of the product in significant markets. We expect that these agreements, together with other projects in progress, will drive strong sales growth of products based on Harpin over the coming years."

Battery Grade Lithium Carbonate produced from the Cinovec Lithium Project
Rare Earth Mineral Plc (AIM/ISDX: REM; OTC: REMMY) is pleased to report that >99.5% pure lithium carbonate has been manufactured from the Cinovec mica-concentrate using an industry proven sodium sulphate roast-based flow-sheet.
REM holds a 20.76% economic interest in Cinovec, via its interest in European Metals Holdings Limited ("EMH"). Cinovec contains the largest lithium resource in Europe and one of the largest undeveloped tin resources in the world.
The roasting flow-sheet reflects a simplified version of the well-proven technology currently employed by a number of operating lithium carbonate plants around the world to convert spodumene concentrate to lithium carbonate.
The full EMH release is available at: http://europeanmet.com/assets/AIM__-_13_Dec_2016_-_Lithium_Carbonate.pdf .
Highlights from the EMH release:
· Production of >99.5% lithium carbonate
· Roast recoveries of 87% achieved
· Key roasting reagent is recycled back to the roast, lowering process costs
· Minimal leaching of unwanted impurities, resulting in simpler precipitation of battery grade lithium carbonate
· Commencing production of lithium carbonate samples for potential offtaker and end user testing.
Kiran Morzaria, the Chief Executive Officer of REM, commented:
"We are extremely pleased with the progress being made at Cinovec. The production of battery grade lithium from a well established process route, is a significant milestone in the commercialisation of the largest lithium deposit in Europe."
