Warrant exercise under structured investment deed

Ethernity Networks (AIM: ENET.L; OTCMKTS: ENETF), a leading supplier of data processing semiconductor technology for networking appliances, announces that it has received a warrant exercise notice for £395,000 from New Technology Capital Group, LLC ("New Tech") pursuant to the Structured Investment Deed ("Investment Deed"), details of which were announced on 17 May 2024 (the "Announcement).

Accordingly, the Company has issued and allotted 98,750,000 new ordinary shares of NIS 0.001 each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") to New Tech at an issue price of 0.4p per Ordinary Share (the "New Ordinary Shares"). The issue price was determined by reference to the pricing mechanism in the Investment Deed, as set out in the Announcement.

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission") and Admission is expected to occur on or around 17 July 2024. The New Ordinary Shares will, upon Admission, rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares in the Company.

Following the receipt of this warrant exercise notice and the issue of the New Ordinary Shares, the remaining balance in relation to which New Tech may exercise its Warrant under the Investment Deed is £405,000, less the value of the 40,000,000 Subscription Shares issued to New Tech at the time of entering into the Investment Deed (as set out in the Announcement) at the relevant exercise price. Based on the deemed exercise price for this warrant issue of 0.4p, the remaining outstanding balance under the Investment Deed is £245,000 (however, this amount may vary depending on the relevant exercise price at the time of exercise).

Holdings in Company

The Company has been informed by New Tech that, following Admission, New Tech will hold 127,378,000 Ordinary Shares, representing 24.67% of the Company's enlarged share capital.

Total voting rights

Following Admission, the Company's enlarged issued share capital will be 516,392,243 Ordinary Shares. The Company holds no Ordinary Shares in Treasury. This figure of 516,392,243 Ordinary Shares may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
