Results of Open Offer

and Result of General Meeting

 

On 15 December 2021, Fulcrum announced it had raised gross proceeds of £20.05
million by way of a conditional Placing and subsequently launched an Open
Offer to raise additional gross proceeds of up to approximately £6.0 million.

 

The Company is pleased to announce that at its General Meeting held today all
of the resolutions, as set out in the Notice of General Meeting contained in
the Circular dated 17 December 2021, were duly passed. Details of the voting
results will be available to view on the Company's website shortly.

 

The Company also announces the results of the Open Offer, which closed for
acceptances at 11:00 a.m. on 6 January 2022. Valid acceptances have been
received in respect of 10,112,180 Open Offer Shares.  In accordance with the
terms and conditions of the Open Offer all applications made pursuant to the
Open Offer (other than Excess Open Offer Shares applied for under the Excess
Application Facility) have been met in full.  The Company has therefore
raised gross proceeds of approximately £1.2 million through the Open Offer.

 

Application has been made for a total of 177,195,513 new Ordinary Shares, to
be issued pursuant to the Placing and Open Offer to be admitted to trading on
AIM. It is expected that Admission and dealings in the 177,195,513 new
Ordinary Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m. on 10 January 2022. Following
Admission, the Enlarged Share Capital of the Company will consist of
399,313,458 Ordinary Shares. Therefore, the total number of voting rights in
the Company is 399,313,458  and this figure may be used by shareholders as
the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are
required to notify their interest in the Company, or there is a change to
their interest in the Company.

 

 

The same definitions apply throughout this announcement as are applied in the
Circular.
