Inspiration Healthcare Group plc

Proposed Placing and Subscription of £2.5m

 

Inspiration Healthcare Group plc (AIM: IHC) ("Inspiration Healthcare", the "Company" or, together with its subsidiary undertakings, the "Group"), the global medical technology company pioneering specialist neonatal intensive care medical devices, today announces a proposed conditional placing of  17,321,430 new ordinary shares of 10 pence each ("Ordinary Shares") in the capital of the Company (the "Placing Shares") at a price of 14 pence per Placing Share (the "Issue Price") to raise gross proceeds of approximately £2.4 million (the "Placing").

The Placing Shares represent approximately 25.4 per cent. of the existing issued ordinary share capital of the Company (the "Existing Ordinary Shares") and the Issue Price represents a discount of approximately 42.9 per cent. to the closing mid-market price of 24.5 pence per Existing Ordinary Share on 25June 2024, being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this Announcement.

In addition, certain of the Directors and senior management, intend to participate by way of a direct subscription with the Company of new Ordinary Shares (the " Subscription" and together with the Placing, the "Fundraising"). It is intended that the Subscription will comprise approximately £75,000 in aggregate through the issue of 535,712 new Ordinary Shares (the "Subscription Shares") at the Issue Price.

It is intended that the Fundraising will result in the Company raising total gross proceeds of £2.5 million.

RETAIL OFFER

The Company also intends to offer up to 3,571,428 new Ordinary Shares at the Issue Price (the "Retail Shares") through the Winterflood Retail Access platform ("WRAP") to raise up to £0.50 million of gross proceeds (the "Retail Offer" and together with the Fundraising, the "Capital Raising"), to provide qualifying retail investors in the United Kingdom with an opportunity to participate alongside the Fundraising. A further announcement will be made in due course regarding the Retail Offer and its terms. It is expected that the Retail Offer will launch at 8.00 a.m. on 26 June 2024 and will be open for applications up to 5.00 p.m. on 27 June 2024. The result of the Retail Offer is expected to be announced by the Company on or around 27 June 2024. For the avoidance of doubt, the Retail Offer is in addition to the Fundraising. The Retail Offer may not be fully subscribed.

Capitalised terms used in this announcement (including the appendices) (this "Announcement") have the meanings given to them in Appendix 3 to this Announcement, unless the context provides otherwise.

Liberum Capital Limited ("Liberum") is acting as sole bookrunner (the "Sole Bookrunner") in connection with the Placing. The Placing Shares are being offered by way of an accelerated bookbuild (the "Bookbuild"), which will be launched immediately following this Announcement, in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in Appendix 3 to this Announcement.  The Placing is not being underwritten.

The timing of the closing of the Bookbuild and the allocation of Placing Shares to be issued at the Issue Price are to be determined at the discretion of the Company and the Sole Bookrunner.

A further announcement will be made following the close of the Bookbuild confirming final details of the Fundraising.

HIGHLIGHTS

·    Placing to raise gross proceeds of approximately £2.4 million through the issue of an aggregate of 17,321,430 new Ordinary Shares at the Issue Price.

·    Intended Subscription to raise gross proceeds of approximately £75,000 through the issue of an aggregate of 535,712 new Ordinary Shares at the Issue Price.

·    The net proceeds of the Fundraising (being approximately £2.3 million) are expected to be utilised to reduce net debt and provide additional liquidity headroom.

·    Conditional on completion of the Fundraising, the Company will be able to make further draw downs of the full remaining undrawn amount of the RCF without HSBC's consent, subject only to ongoing covenant compliance, including a monthly minimum liquidity level of £1.5 million.

·    The Capital Raising is conditional upon, among other things, the resolutions (the "Resolutions") required to implement the Capital Raising being duly passed by Shareholders at the general meeting proposed to be held on 22 July 2024 (the "General Meeting").

·    A circular, containing further details of the Capital Raising and the notice of general meeting (the "Circular"), together with the proxy form, will be posted to Shareholders in due course and will be made available on the Company's website at www.inspirationhealthcaregroup.com.

Further information on Inspiration Healthcare can be found at www.inspirationhealthcaregroup.com

BACKGROUND TO AND REASONS FOR THE TRANSACTION

As announced by the Company on 31 January 2024, a £3.5 million export order that was due to be received before the 2024 financial year end was, and continues to be, anticipated, albeit the Board expects to receive the order in the financial year ending 31 January 2025. In expectation of the order, the Company had deployed cash into working capital to fulfil the order and consequently net debt was higher than anticipated at the period end and continues to be so.

The Company was granted covenant waivers by its lender, HSBC Bank plc ("HSBC") in respect of the 31 January 2024 and 30 April 2024 covenant test dates. For the latest waiver granted by HSBC, alternate covenants were agreed until 31 January 2025 with HSBC's consent required for any further drawdowns on the Revolving Credit Facility ("RCF").

In light of the outstanding export order and related covenant waiver and conditions, the Company announced in its trading update on 1 May 2024 that it was investigating alternate financing options.

As such, the Company is now seeking to raise approximately £2.5 million by way of the Fundraising to reduce net debt and provide additional liquidity headroom.

HSBC FACILITIES

The Company has a total of £15.0 million of debt facilities with HSBC, of which £9.5 million was drawn at 17 June 2024, comprising:

·    an RCF with HSBC of £10.0 million, of which £6.5 million was drawn; and

·    an invoice financing facility of £5.0 million, of which £3.0 million was drawn.

HSBC has agreed that, conditional on completion of the Fundraise, the Company will be able to access the full RCF and therefore able to make further drawdowns without HSBC's consent, subject to ongoing covenant compliance including a monthly minimum liquidity level of £1.5 million.  The EBITDA covenants have been reset at a lower level up to and including the 31 January 2025 test dates in order to give the Company greater headroom.  

BOARD CHANGES

Neil Campbell stepped down as CEO on 30 May 2024, becoming a Non-executive Director and a consultant to the Company as a Global Advocate supporting key relationships and business development opportunities.

Roy Davis became Executive Chairman and Interim CEO on 30 May 2024, having joined the Board in January 2024. Roy brings a wealth of commercial experience in medical devices companies and has a proven track record of successfully scaling companies and delivering substantial value for shareholders. His expertise includes delivering sales growth strategies, transforming business operations, enhancing operational efficiency, and increasing productivity to yield higher profits.  He has held leadership positions at a number of publicly quoted med tech companies, including as Non-Executive Chair at Medica Group plc, a leading UK teleradiology company until its acquisition by IK partners for £269 million in 2024.  He was also CEO of Optos plc, a leading retinal imaging device manufacturer from 2008 to 2016 until its sale to Nikon for US$400 million in 2015 and CEO of Gyrus Group plc, a leader in minimally invasive surgery and visualisation, until its acquisition by Olympus Corporation in 2008 for US$1.9 billion.

RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

The Company announced through the Regulatory News Service earlier today its unaudited preliminary results for the financial year ended 31 January 2024.  These are available at: https://inspirationhealthcaregroup.com/investors/rns/.

 

 

CURRENT TRADING AND OUTLOOK

While there have been challenges beyond the Company's control presented by volatility in the international markets it serves, it continues to be robustly positioned in a stable global long term growth sector with a best-in-class product portfolio.

The Board is actively executing its growth strategy to increase its presence in more stable markets, most notably North America, where the recent acquisition of Airon provides a suite of complementary products and a ready-made platform to grow. This strategic move not only aims to mitigate the impact of short-term market volatility, but also will be a key growth driver for the Company over the medium term.

The Board continues to review the Group's structure and operations to ensure they support the cost effective implementation of the Group's strategy.

While revenues are expected to be second half weighted for the financial year ending 31 January 2025, current trading and the revenue pipeline provide confidence in meeting management's expectations.

DETAILS OF THE PLACING

The Company intends to raise gross proceeds of approximately £2.4 million by means of the Placing. The Placing Shares will represent approximately 25.4 per cent. of the Existing Ordinary Shares on 25 June 2024, the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this Announcement.

The Sole Bookrunner's obligations under the Placing Agreement in respect of the Placing are conditional, inter alia, upon:

(i)        the Placing Agreement becoming unconditional in all respects (save for any condition relating to Admission) and not having been terminated in accordance with its terms prior to Admission;

(ii)       the passing of the Resolutions at the General Meeting; and

(iii)      Admission becoming effective by no later than 8.00 a.m. on 23 July 2024 (or such later time and/or date (being no later than 8.00 a.m. on the Long Stop Date) as the Sole Bookrunner and the Company may agree).

If any of the conditions above are not satisfied, the Placing Shares will not be issued.

The Placing Shares are not subject to clawback. The Placing is not being underwritten.

The Placing Shares will be issued free of all liens, charges and encumbrances and will, when issued, be fully paid, and rank pari passu in all respects with the Existing Ordinary Shares, including the right to receive dividends and other distributions declared, paid or made after the date of their issue.

Subject to, inter alia, the passing of the Resolutions, application will be made to the London Stock Exchange, by means of the Application, for the admission of the Placing Shares and the Subscription Shares to trading on AIM. Admission is expected to occur and dealings are expected to commence in the Placing Shares and the Subscription Shares at 8.00 a.m. on 23 July 2024. If Admission does not occur, then the Company will not receive the relevant net proceeds in respect of Admission and the Company may not be able to finance the activities it intends to utilise the net proceeds of the Placing for, as described in this Announcement, and may have to seek additional funding.

DETAILS OF THE SUBSCRIPTION

The Company intends to raise gross proceeds of approximately £75,000 by means of the Subscription. The following Directors and senior management have indicated an intention to subscribe for New Ordinary Shares in the following amounts and pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, following this announcement:

** assuming that the Subscribers commit to subscribe for New Ordinary Shares as they have indicated

If the relevant Directors and senior management commit to subscribe for New Ordinary Shares as they have indicated, the  Subscription Shares will represent approximately 0.79 per cent. of the Existing Ordinary Shares on 25 June 2024, the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this Announcement.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The aggregate net proceeds after costs related to the Fundraising are expected to be approximately £2.3 million. The net proceeds of the Fundraising will be used to reduce net debt and will provide significant liquidity headroom.

The net proceeds of the Retail Offer will be used to further reduce net debt.

EFFECTS OF THE CAPITAL RAISING

Upon Admission, the Enlarged Issued Share Capital is expected to be 89,663,372 Ordinary Shares. The New Ordinary Shares will represent approximately 23.9 per cent. of the Enlarged Issued Share Capital.

The Directors have concluded that proceeding with the Capital Raising is the most suitable option available to the Company for raising additional funds through the issue of the New Ordinary Shares and that issuing the New Ordinary Shares at a discount is fair and reasonable so far as all existing Shareholders are concerned. The Issue Price has been set by the Sole Bookrunner, after consultation with the Company, following their assessment of market conditions and following discussions with a number of institutional investors.

 

GENERAL MEETING

At the annual general meeting of the Company held on 27 June 2023 (the "2023 AGM"), certain resolutions were passed by Shareholders which granted the Directors the authority to allot, on a non-pre-emptive basis, Ordinary Shares up to an aggregate nominal amount of £682,348 (being approximately 10 per cent. of the issued share capital of the Company as at the date of the 2023 AGM).

Given the limit on the Company's allotment authorities, the Capital Raising will only be implemented if the new shareholder authorities being sought pursuant to the Resolutions are duly passed at the General Meeting.

Set out at the end of the Circular is the Notice of the General Meeting to be held on 22 July 2024, at which the Resolutions will be proposed.

If any Resolution is not passed by the Shareholders at the General Meeting, the Capital Raising will not proceed. The Resolutions can be summarised as follows:

·     Resolution 1 - this will be proposed as an ordinary resolution (requiring a simple majority of votes in favour) and seeks the approval of Shareholders to authorise the Directors to allot the New Ordinary Shares in connection with the Capital Raising; and

·     Resolution 2 - this will be proposed as a special resolution (requiring the approval of at least 75 per cent. of the votes cast) and seeks the approval of Shareholders to authorise the Directors to dis-apply pre-emption rights in connection with the allotment of the New Ordinary Shares in connection with the Capital Raising. This authority is being sought to allow the Directors to issue New Ordinary Shares on a non pre-emptive basis in connection with the Capital Raising.

Each Placee hereby agrees with Liberum and the Company to be bound by these terms and conditions as being the terms and conditions upon which Placing Shares will be issued or acquired. A Placee shall, without limitation, become so bound if Liberum confirms orally or in writing to such Placee its allocation of Placing Shares.

Upon being notified of its allocation of Placing Shares, a Placee shall be contractually committed to acquire the number of Placing Shares allocated to it at the Placing Price and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, will be deemed to have agreed not to exercise any rights to rescind or terminate or otherwise withdraw from such commitment.

In this Appendix, unless the context otherwise requires, "Placee" means a Relevant Person (including individuals, funds or others) who has been invited to participate in the Placing and on whose behalf a commitment to subscribe for or acquire Placing Shares has been given.

Details of the Placing Agreement and the Placing Shares

The Company and Liberum have entered into a Placing Agreement, under which Liberum has, on the terms and subject to the conditions set out therein, undertaken to use its reasonable endeavours to procure subscribers for the Placing Shares at the Placing Price. It is expected that the Placing will raise £2,425,000 in gross proceeds. The Placing is not being underwritten by Liberum or any other person and Liberum is not obliged to subscribe for any Placing Shares or any other shares in the capital of the Company, nor is Liberum under an absolute obligation to procure any person to subscribe for any Placing Shares nor is any part of the Placing subject to clawback from the Retail Offer.

The Placing Shares are expected to be issued on or around 23 July 2024. The Placing Shares will, when issued, be subject to the articles of association of the Company, be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the Existing Shares, including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions (if any) declared, made or paid on or in respect of Ordinary Shares after the date of issue of the Placing Shares.

The Placing Shares will trade on AIM under IHC with ISIN GB00BXDZL105. 

Application for admission to trading of the Fundraising Shares

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the Fundraising Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM. Admission for the Fundraising Shares is expected to become effective and dealings in such shares are expected to commence at 8.00 a.m. on or around 23 July 2024 (the "Admission"). In any event, the latest date for Admission is 23 August 2024 (the "Long Stop Date").

Placing

This Appendix gives details of the terms and conditions of, and the mechanics of participation in, the Placing. No commissions will be paid to the Placees or by the Placees in respect of any Placing Shares.

Participation in, and principal terms of, the Placing are as follows: 

1.               Liberum is arranging the Placing as agent, broker, nominated adviser and sole book runner for the Company. Liberum is regulated by the FCA, is acting exclusively for the Company and no one else in connection with the matters referred to in this Announcement and will not be responsible to anyone (including any Placees) other than the Company for providing the protections afforded to its clients or for providing advice in relation to the matters described in this Announcement.

2.               The number of Placing Shares to be issued will be agreed between Liberum and the Company following completion of a book building exercise by Liberum (the "Bookbuild"). The results of the Bookbuild will be released through a Regulatory Information Service following the completion of the Bookbuild.

3.               The Bookbuild is expected to close no later than 4:30 p.m. on 26 June 2024 but may be closed earlier or later at the discretion of Liberum and Liberum may, in agreement with the Company, accept bids received after the Bookbuild has closed.

4.               Participation in the Placing is only available to persons who are lawfully able to be, and have been, invited to participate by Liberum. Liberum is entitled (but not obligated) to participate in the Placing as principal.

5.               To bid in the Bookbuild, prospective Placees should communicate their bid by telephone to their usual sales contact at Liberum. Each bid should state the number of Placing Shares which the prospective Placee wishes to subscribe for at the Placing Price. Bids may be scaled down by Liberum on the basis referred to paragraph 7 below.

6.               Each Placee's allocation has been or will be confirmed to the Placees orally, or in writing (which can include email), by Liberum and a trade confirmation or contract note has been or will be dispatched as soon as possible thereafter. Liberum's oral or written confirmation will give rise to an irrevocable, legally binding commitment by that person (who at that point becomes a Placee), in favour of Liberum and the Company, under which it agrees to acquire by subscription the number of Placing Shares allocated to it at the Placing Price and otherwise on the terms and subject to the conditions set out in this Appendix and in accordance with the Company's articles of association. Except with Liberum's prior written consent, such commitment will not be capable of variation or revocation.

7.               Subject to paragraphs 3 and 5 above, Liberum may choose to accept or reject bids, either in whole or in part, on the basis of allocations determined at their discretion (in consultation with the Company) and may scale down any bids for this purpose on such basis as they may determine. Liberum may also, notwithstanding paragraphs 3 and 5 above, subject to the prior consent of the Company: (i) allocate Placing Shares after the time of any initial allocation to any person submitting a bid after that time; and (ii) allocate Placing Shares after the Bookbuild has closed to any person submitting a bid after that time.

8.               Each Placee's allocation will, unless otherwise agreed between the Placee and Liberum, be evidenced by a trade confirmation or contract note issued to each such Placee by Liberum. The terms and conditions of this Announcement (including this Appendix) will be deemed to be incorporated in that trade confirmation, contract note or such other confirmation and will be legally binding on the Placee on behalf of which it is made and except with Liberum's prior written consent will not be capable of variation or revocation from the time at which it is issued.

9.               Each Placee will have an immediate, separate, irrevocable and binding obligation, owed to Liberum (as agent for the Company), to pay to Liberum (or as Liberum may direct) in cleared funds an amount equal to the product of the Placing Price and the number of Placing Shares such Placee has agreed to acquire and the Company has agreed to allot and issue to that Placee.

10.             Except as required by law or regulation, no press release or other announcement will be made by Liberum or the Company using the name of any Placee (or its agent), in its capacity as Placee (or agent), other than with such Placee's prior written consent.

11.             Irrespective of the time at which a Placee's allocation pursuant to the Placing is confirmed, settlement for all Placing Shares to be acquired pursuant to the Placing will be required to be made at the same time, on the basis explained below under "Registration and Settlement".

12.             All obligations of Liberum under the Placing will be subject to fulfilment of the conditions referred to below under "Conditions of the Placing" and to the Placing not being terminated on the basis referred to below under "Right to terminate under the Placing Agreement".

13.             By participating in the Placing, each Placee agrees that its rights and obligations in respect of the Placing will terminate only in the circumstances described below and will not be capable of rescission or termination by the Placee.

14.             To the fullest extent permissible by law and the applicable rules of the FCA, neither Liberum nor any of its Affiliates shall have any liability to Placees (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise whether or not a recipient of these terms and conditions) in respect of the Placing. Each Placee acknowledges and agrees that the Company is responsible for the allotment of the Placing Shares to the Placees and Liberum and its Affiliates shall have no liability to the Placees for the failure of the Company to fulfil those obligations. In particular, neither Liberum nor any of its Affiliates shall have any liability (including to the extent permissible by law, any fiduciary duties) in respect of Liberum's conduct of the Placing. 

CONDITIONS OF THE PLACING

Liberum's obligations under the Placing Agreement in respect of the Placing are conditional on, inter alia:

15.             the Placing Results Announcement having been released by no later than 8.00 a.m. on the Business Day immediately following the date of this Announcement (or such later date as the Company and Liberum may agree);

16.             none of the warranties or undertakings given in the Placing Agreement being or having become untrue, inaccurate or misleading at any time before Admission, and no fact or circumstance having arisen which would constitute a breach of any of the warranties or undertakings given in this Agreement on the dates on which they are given or which would constitute a Specified Event;

17.             the Placing Agreement not having been terminated prior to Admission;

18.             Admission occurring by not later than 8.00 a.m. on 23 July 2024 (or such later date as the Company and Liberum may agree, in any event being not later than the Long Stop Date),

If: (i) any of the conditions contained in the Placing Agreement, including those described above, are not fulfilled or (where applicable) waived in accordance with the Placing Agreement within the stated time periods (or such later time or date as Liberum may notify to the Company (being not later than the Long Stop Date)); or (ii) any of such conditions becomes incapable of being fulfilled (subject to Liberum not exercising its rights to waive or extend the time for fulfilment of such condition), the Placing will not proceed and the Placees' rights and obligations hereunder in relation to the Placing Shares shall cease and terminate at such time and each Placee agrees that no claim can be made by the Placee in respect thereof. 

Liberum may, in its absolute discretion waive or extend the time for fulfilment of all or any condition contained in the Placing Agreement (to the extent that Liberum is capable of waiving such condition) by notice in writing to the Company save that such time shall not be extended beyond the Long Stop Date. 

For the avoidance of doubt, termination or withdrawal of the Subscription or the Retail Offer shall not impact or prejudice the Placing. However, termination or withdrawal of the Placing (by termination of the Placing Agreement) will equally result in termination of the Retail Offer.

Neither Liberum, the Company nor any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to any Placee (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise) in respect of any decision they may make as to whether or not to waive or to extend the time and/or date for the satisfaction of any condition to the Placing nor for any decision they may make as to the satisfaction of any condition or in respect of the Placing generally and by participating in the Placing each Placee agrees that any such decision is within the absolute discretion of Liberum.

RIGHT TO TERMINATE THE PLACING AGREEMENT

Liberum is entitled to terminate the Placing Agreement at any time prior to Admission by giving notice to the Company in the circumstances as set out below:

1.               any of the conditions contained in the Placing Agreement which is not waived (if capable of waiver), is not satisfied or becomes incapable, for any reason, of being satisfied or in the reasonable opinion of Liberum is unlikely to be satisfied before Admission;

2.               any of the warranties contained in the Placing Agreement: (a) was not true or accurate, or was misleading when given or deemed given; or (b) at any time if they were to be repeated or deemed repeated (by reference to the facts and circumstances then existing) would no longer be true and accurate, or would be misleading; or

3.               any event has arisen which, in the opinion of Liberum, acting in good faith, has given or could reasonably be expected to give rise to a claim under any of the indemnities set out in the Placing Agreement;

4.               the Company has failed to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, the Companies Act, FSMA, UK MAR, the AIM Rules, the Takeover Code, the Financial Services Act 2012 or any other applicable law or regulation which Liberum has, in good faith, deemed material;

5.               any statement contained in the Placing Documents (as defined in the Placing Agreement) has become or been discovered to be untrue, inaccurate or misleading in any material respect or it is discovered that there has been an omission from the Placing Documents which Liberum has, in good faith, deemed material;

6.               there shall have been, occurred, happened or come into effect any event or omission which (in the opinion of Liberum, acting in good faith) materially and adversely affects the financial position and/or prospects of the Group, or which (in the opinion of Liberum, acting in good faith) is or will be or is likely to be materially prejudicial to the Group or to materially and adversely affect the Group, the Placing or Admission or to the subscription for the Placing Shares by the Placees;

7.               there shall have occurred any outbreak of hostilities on a political or military level, terrorist attack, or any material adverse change in national or international financial, monetary, economic, political, environmental, social or stock market conditions which (in the opinion of Liberum, acting in good faith) is or will be or is likely to be materially prejudicial to the Group or to the Placing or Admission;

8.               there having occurred or, it being reasonably likely that there will occur, a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in London declared by the relevant authorities or a material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United Kingdom;

9.               the appointment of Liberum as agent, broker, nominated adviser and sole book runner of the Company for the purposes of the Placing is terminated for any reason; or

10.             the Group's situation is such that Admission and the Placing may (in the opinion of, Liberum acting in good faith) be detrimental to the ordinary operation or reputation of AIM.

If the Placing Agreement is terminated prior to Admission then the Placing will not occur.

The rights and obligations of the Placees will not be subject to termination at any time or in any circumstances, other than set out in the section entitled "Conditions of the Placing" above. By participating in the Placing, the Placees agree that the exercise by Liberum of any right of termination or other discretion under the Placing Agreement shall be within the absolute discretion of Liberum and that Liberum need not make any reference to the Placees in this regard and that neither Liberum nor any of its Affiliates shall have any liability to the Placees whatsoever in connection with any such exercise or failure so to exercise.

NO ADMISSION DOCUMENT OR PROSPECTUS

The Placing Shares are being offered to a limited number of specifically invited persons only and have not been nor will be offered in such a way as to require the publication of an admission document or prospectus in the United Kingdom or any equivalent document in any other jurisdiction. No offering document, admission document or prospectus has been or will be submitted to be approved by the FCA or the London Stock Exchange in relation to the Placing or the Placing Shares, and the Placees' commitments will be made solely on the basis of the information contained in this Announcement (including this Appendix) and the business and financial information that the Company is required to publish in accordance with the AIM Rules (the "Exchange Information") or has published through a Regulatory Information Service ("Publicly Available Information"). Each Placee, by accepting a participation in the Placing, agrees that the content of this Announcement is exclusively the responsibility of the Company and confirms that it has neither received nor relied on any other information (other than the Exchange Information and/or Publicly Available Information), representation, warranty, or statement made by or on behalf of the Company or Liberum or any other person and neither Liberum, the Company nor any other person will be liable for any Placee's decision to participate in the Placing based on any other information, representation, warranty or statement which the Placees may have obtained or received and, if given or made, such information, representation, warranty or statement must not be relied upon as having been authorised by Liberum, the Company or their respective officers, directors, employees or agents. Each Placee acknowledges and agrees that it has relied on its own investigation of the business, financial or other position of the Company in accepting a participation in the Placing. Neither the Company nor Liberum are making any undertaking or warranty to any Placee regarding the legality of an investment in the Placing Shares by such Placee under any legal, investment or similar laws or regulations. Each Placee should not consider any information in this Announcement to be legal, tax or business advice. Each Placee should consult its own solicitor, tax adviser and financial adviser for independent legal, tax and financial advice regarding an investment in the Placing Shares. Nothing in this paragraph shall exclude the liability of any person for fraudulent misrepresentation.

RESTRICTION ON FURTHER ISSUE OF SHARES

The Company has undertaken to Liberum that, the Company will not, except with the prior written consent of Liberum, on or after the date of the Placing Agreement and before the date falling 90 days after Admission or (if earlier) the termination of Liberum's obligations under the Placing Agreement: (i) issue, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Ordinary Shares (or any legal or beneficial interest therein or right in respect thereof) or other shares (or any legal or beneficial interest therein or right in respect thereof) in the capital of the Company or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares or other shares in the capital of the Company; or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of Ordinary Shares or other shares in the capital of the Company, whether any such transaction described in (i) or (ii) is to be settled by delivery of Ordinary Shares or other shares in the capital of the Company or such other securities, in case or otherwise; or the issuance of the Subscription Shares pursuant to the Subscription Agreement or the issuance of the Retail Shares pursuant to the Retail Offer;

By participating in the Placing, Placees agree that the exercise by Liberum of any power to grant consent to the undertaking by the Company of a transaction which would otherwise be subject to the restrictive provisions on further issuance under the Placing Agreement shall be within the absolute discretion of Liberum and that it need not make any reference to, or consult with, Placees and that it shall have no liability to Placees whatsoever in connection with any such exercise of the power to grant consent.

REGISTRATION AND SETTLEMENT

Settlement of transactions in the Fundraising Shares will, unless otherwise agreed, take place on a delivery versus payment basis within the system administered by Euroclear UK & International Limited ("CREST"). Each Placee will be deemed to agree that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery and payment is completed as directed by Liberum in accordance with the standing CREST settlement instructions which they have in place with Liberum.

Settlement of transactions in the Placing Shares (ISIN: GB00BXDZL105) following Admission will take place within CREST provided that, subject to certain exceptions, Liberum reserves the right to require settlement for, and delivery of, the Placing Shares (or a portion thereof) to the Placees by such other means that it deems necessary if delivery or settlement is not possible or practicable within CREST within the timetable set out in this Announcement or would not be consistent with the regulatory requirements in any Placee's jurisdiction.

It is expected that settlement of the Fundraising Shares will be on 23 July 2024 unless otherwise notified by Liberum and Admission is expected to occur by 23 July 2024 or such later time as may be agreed between the Company and Liberum, not being later than the Long Stop Date.

Each Placee is deemed to agree that, if it does not comply with these obligations, Liberum may sell any or all of the Placing Shares allocated to that Placee on such Placee's behalf and retain from the proceeds, for Liberum's account and benefit (as agent for the Company), an amount equal to the aggregate amount owed by the Placee plus any interest due. The relevant Placee will, however, remain liable and shall indemnify Liberum on demand for any shortfall below the aggregate amount owed by it and may be required to bear any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax or securities transfer tax (together with any interest or penalties) which may arise upon the sale of such Placing Shares on such Placee's behalf. By communicating a bid for Placing Shares, each Placee confers on Liberum such authorities and powers necessary to carry out any such sale and agrees to ratify and confirm all actions which Liberum lawfully takes in pursuance of such sale. Legal and/or beneficial title in and to any Placing Shares shall not pass to the relevant Placee until it has fully complied with its obligations hereunder.   

If Placing Shares are to be delivered to a custodian or settlement agent, Placees should ensure that any form of confirmation is copied and delivered immediately to the relevant person within that organisation.

Insofar as Placing Shares are registered in a Placee's name or that of its nominee or in the name of any person for whom a Placee is contracting as agent or that of a nominee for such person, such Placing Shares should, subject as provided below, be so registered free from any liability to UK stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax or securities transfer tax. Neither Liberum nor the Company will be liable in any circumstances for the payment of stamp duty, stamp duty reserve tax or securities transfer tax in connection with any of the Placing Shares. The Placees will not be entitled to receive any fee or commission in connection with the Placing.

The Company, Liberum and their respective Affiliates will rely upon the truth and accuracy of each of the foregoing representations, warranties, acknowledgements and undertakings which are given to Liberum for themselves and on behalf of the Company and are irrevocable.

The provisions of this Appendix may be waived, varied or modified as regards specific Placees or on a general basis by Liberum.

The agreement to settle a Placee's subscription and/or purchase (and/or the subscription of a person for whom such Placee is contracting as agent) free of stamp duty and stamp duty reserve tax depends on the settlement relating only to a subscription by it and/or such person direct from the Company for the Placing Shares in question. Such agreement assumes that the Placing Shares are not being subscribed for in connection with arrangements to issue depositary receipts or to transfer the Placing Shares into a clearance service. If there are any such arrangements, or the settlement relates to any other subsequent dealing in the Placing Shares, stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax may be payable, for which neither the Company nor Liberum will be responsible, and the Placee to whom (or on behalf of whom, or in respect of the person for whom it is participating in the Placing as an agent or nominee) the allocation, allotment, issue or delivery of Placing Shares has given rise to such UK stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax undertakes to pay such UK stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax forthwith and to indemnify on an after-tax basis and to hold harmless the Company and Liberum in the event that any of the Company and/or Liberum have incurred any such liability to UK stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax. If this is the case, each Placee should seek its own advice and notify Liberum accordingly.  

In addition, the Placees should note that they will be liable for any stamp duty and all other stamp, issue, securities, transfer, registration, documentary or other duties or taxes (including any interest, fines or penalties relating thereto) payable outside the UK by them or any other person on the subscription or purchase by them of any Placing Shares or the agreement by them to subscribe for or purchase any Placing Shares.

This Announcement has been issued by, and is the sole responsibility, of the Company. No representation or warranty express or implied, is or will be made as to, or in relation to, and no responsibility or liability is or will be accepted by Liberum or by any of their respective Affiliates or agents as to or in relation to, the accuracy or completeness of this Announcement or any other written or oral information made available to or publicly available to any interested party or its advisers, and any liability therefore is expressly disclaimed.
