[Image appears of a blue screen with text in black: Oxitec’s R&D facilities in Oxfordshire, inlacing the insectary where mosquitoes are kept.]

[Image changes as camera moves steadily right. In the foreground is a large tree with shrubberies in front. At the back are buildings, the main one looks to be three stories high and has ivy clinging to the front of the buildings. There are a lot of windows including one in the middle which is a double storey window that appears to be in a stairway.  There is a large grassy area in front of the building with light topped bollards around a footpath. The sky is cloudy and grey]

[Image changes as the camera comes around some ivy and shows a large sign on a wall. The sign is white and has black writing: 71, Ground Floor Oxitec Ltd, First Floor]

[Image changes to an industrial looking building in the mid ground. In the foreground is a concrete carpark. The building is in two parts with a white fibro building in the front with a metal and glass door as well as square windows that are concealed by blinds. Behind this is a large industrial metal building that is double height. It has large roller doors to one side and the roof is a flat corrugated iron style.]

[Image changes to show a woman with a long blonde ponytail and glasses wearing a white coat and a face mask enter a glass door. As she moves to the right of shot there are large plastic strips covering a doorway. Visible through the strips is a woman with dark hair in a ponytail wearing a long white coat, a mask and gloves. She is standing in front of shelving holding a large amount of individual square containers on white shelving. She moves to the right of screen and lifts the lid on one of the containers]
