材料全屏 Flop Ltd was in financial difficulties. In January, in order to raise capital, it issued 10,000 £1 shares to Gus, but only asked him to pay 75p per share at the time of issue.

However, in June it realised that it needed even more than the £2,500 it could raise from Gus' existing shareholding.
