Ilika plc

("Ilika" or the "Company")

Placing

Ilika plc (AIM: IKA), a pioneer in materials innovation and solid-state battery technology, announces a conditional placing of 12,600,000 new ordinary shares of 1 pence each ("Placing Shares") at a price of 50p per share (the "Placing"). The Placing will raise gross funds of GBP6,300,000 for the Company at a 5.21% discount to the closing mid-market price on 26 September 2016.

Application will be made for the Placing Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM; it is expected that such admission will be effective no later than 8.00am on 18 October 2016 ("Admission"). The Placing is conditional on (amongst other things) Shareholder approval at a general meeting of the Company, notice of which will be contained in the Circular to be sent to Shareholders as soon as practicable. The Circular will include a recommendation from the board of directors of the Company that Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolutions.

The Company's total issued share capital after admission of Placing Shares will be 78,402,710 ordinary shares. The Company does not currently hold any shares in treasury. The Placing Shares will represent 16.07% of the Company's enlarged issued ordinary share capital immediately following Admission.

Following Admission, this figure of 78,402,710 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 and Transparency Rules.

The net proceeds of the Placing will be required to strengthen the Company's balance sheet and provide additional working capital during the Stereax(TM) commercialisation process.

Certain directors of the Company have subscribed for Shares in the Placing at the issue price as follows:

In connection with the Placing, the Company has entered into a placing agreement with Numis Securities Limited ("Numis") pursuant to which Numis has agreed, in accordance with its terms, to use reasonable endeavours to procure subscribers for the Placing Shares at the Placing Price (the "Placing Agreement"). The Placing has not been underwritten.

The Placing Agreement is conditional, inter alia, on the conditions in the Placing Agreement being satisfied or (if applicable) waived, the Placing Agreement not having been terminated in accordance with its terms prior to Admission, the Resolutions required to implement the Placing being duly passed by the shareholders of the Company at the General Meeting and Admission becoming effective by no later than 8.00 a.m. on 18 October 2016 (or such later time and/or date as the Company and Numis may agree not being later than 8.00 a.m. on 1 November 2016).

The Placing Agreement contains certain customary warranties, undertakings and indemnities from the Company in favour of Numis. Numis is entitled to terminate the Placing Agreement in certain circumstances prior to Admission including, in particular, in the event of a breach of warranty or the occurrence of certain force majeure events.

The Placing Shares will be issued credited as fully paid and will rank in full for all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid after the Admission and will otherwise rank on Admission pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares in the capital of the Company.

The Circular containing (amongst other things) the notice of the General Meeting setting out the Resolutions will be published by the Company as soon as practicable. The Circular will include a recommendation from the board of directors of the Company that Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolutions.

The full terms and conditions of the Placing are set out in the Appendix to this Announcement.

Graeme Purdy, Chief Executive of Ilika, said: "We are delighted to raise these funds, which strengthens our balance sheet to provide additional working capital headroom during the Stereax(TM) commercialisation process. Stereax(TM) M250, our first solid state battery product, was launched in April 2016 and we remain focussed on making it a commercial success. These new funds will help us continue to build momentum and support future growth and it is pleasing to see such support from investors."

The distribution of this Announcement in other jurisdictions may be restricted by law and therefore persons into whose possession this Announcement comes should inform themselves about and observe any such restrictions. Any failure to comply with these restrictions may constitute a violation of the securities laws of such jurisdictions.

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 Numis or by any of its 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, apart from the responsibilities and liabilities (if any) imposed on Numis by the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (as amended), any liability therefor is expressly disclaimed.

All the statements other than statements of historical facts included in this Announcement, including, without limitation, those regarding the Company's financial position, business strategy, plans and objectives of management for future operations are forward-looking statements. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future and therefore undue reliance should not be placed on such forward-looking statements. There are a number of factors that could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Details of the Placing

Numis has entered into a placing agreement (the "Placing Agreement") with the Company under which Numis has, on the terms and subject to the conditions set out therein, undertaken to use its reasonable endeavours to procure, as agent for the Company, subscribers for the Placing Shares at the Placing Price. The Placing has not been underwritten.

The Placing Agreement contains customary warranties given by the Company to Numis as to matters relating to the Company and its business and a customary indemnity given by the Company to Numis in respect of liabilities arising out of or in connection with the Placing.

The Placing is conditional upon Admission becoming effective and the Placing Agreement not being terminated in accordance with its terms. The Placing is conditional on (amongst other things) the Resolutions having being duly passed (without amendment) at the General Meeting (or at any adjournment thereof).

The Placing Shares will, when issued, be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing issued Ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company, including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions (if any) declared, made or paid on or in respect of the Ordinary Shares after the date of issue of the Placing Shares.

The Company, subject to certain exceptions, has agreed not to allot, issue or grant any rights in respect of its Ordinary Shares in the period of 90 days from the date of Admission without Numis's prior consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

Application for admission to trading

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for admission to trading of the Placing Shares on AIM ("Admission"). It is expected that settlement of any such shares and Admission will become effective on or around 18 October 2016 and that dealings in the Placing Shares will commence at that time.

Participation in, and principal terms of, the Placing

1. Numis (whether through itself or any of its affiliates) is arranging the Placing as placing agent of the Company for the purpose of using reasonable endeavours to procure Placees at the Placing Price for the Placing Shares.

2. Participation in the Placing will only be available to persons who may lawfully be, and are, invited to participate by Numis. Numis and/or its affiliates may participate in the Placing as principal.

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

4. The placing price will be a fixed price of 50 pence per Placing Share (the "Placing Price").

5. Each Placee's allocation will be confirmed to Placees orally by Numis, and a trade confirmation or contract note will be dispatched as soon as possible thereafter. The oral confirmation to such Placee will constitute an irrevocable legally binding commitment upon such person (who will at that point become a Placee) in favour of Numis and the Company, under which it agrees to acquire the number of Placing Shares allocated to it at the Placing Price on the terms and conditions set out in this Appendix and in accordance with the Company's Articles of Association.

6. Except as required by law or regulation, no press release or other announcement will be made by Numis 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.

7. 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".

8. All obligations under the Placing will be subject to fulfilment or (where applicable) waiver of, amongst other things, 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".

9. By participating in the Placing, each Placee will agree 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.

10. To the fullest extent permissible by law, none of the Company, Numis or any of their respective affiliates shall have any liability to Placees (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise). In particular, none of the Company, Numis or any of their respective affiliates shall have any liability (including to the fullest extent permissible by law, any fiduciary duties) in respect of Numis's conduct of the Placing. Each Placee acknowledges and agrees that the Company is responsible for the allotment of the Placing Shares to the Placees and Numis shall have no liability to the Placees for the failure of the Company to fulfil those obligations.

Conditions of the Placing

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

(a) the warranties contained in the Placing Agreement being true, accurate and not misleading as at the date of the Placing Agreement and at all times before Admission as though they had been given and made on such dates (by reference to the facts and circumstances existing at such dates);

(b) the Company allotting, subject only to Admission, the Placing Shares in accordance with the Placing Agreement;

(c) Admission taking place not later than 8.00 a.m on 18 October 2016 or such later date as the Company and Numis may otherwise agree not being later than 8.00 a.m on 1 November 2016;

(d) there having been no Material Adverse Change (as defined in the Placing Agreement) prior to Admission;

   (e)              the Placing Agreement not having been terminated prior to Admission; and 

(f) the Resolutions having been duly passed (without amendment) at the General Meeting (or at any adjournment thereof).

If (i) any of the conditions contained in the Placing Agreement in relation to the Placing Shares are not fulfilled or waived by Numis by the respective time or date where specified (or such later time or date as the Company and Numis may agree not being later than 8.00 a.m on 1 November 2016 (the "Final Date")), or (ii) the Placing Agreement is terminated as described below, the Placing in relation to the Placing Shares will lapse and the Placee's 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.

Numis may, at its absolute discretion and upon such terms as it thinks fit, waive, or extend the period (up to the Final Date) for, compliance by the Company with the whole or any part of any of the Company's obligations in relation to the conditions in the Placing Agreement, save that the condition relating to Admission taking place may not be waived. Any such extension or waiver will not affect Placees' commitments as set out in this Announcement.

Neither Numis nor the Company 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 Numis.

Right to terminate under the Placing Agreement

Numis is entitled, at any time before Admission, to terminate the Placing Agreement by giving notice to the Company in certain circumstances, including, inter alia, if in the opinion of Numis (acting in good faith):

(a) any of the warranties given to it was untrue inaccurate or misleading when made and / or any of the warranties have ceased to be true or accurate or has become misleading in each case by reference to the facts and circumstances then subsisting;

   (b)          the Company has failed to comply with its obligations under the Placing Agreement; 
   (c)           there has been a material adverse change; or 
   (d)          there has been a force majeure event. 

Following Admission, the Placing Agreement is not capable of termination to the extent that it relates to the Placing of the Placing Shares.

The rights and obligations of the Placees shall terminate only in the circumstances described in these terms and conditions and the Placing Agreement and will not be subject to termination by the Placee or any prospective Placee at any time or in any circumstances. By participating in the Placing, Placees agree that the exercise by Numis of any right of termination or other discretion under the Placing Agreement shall be within the absolute discretion of Numis, and that it need not make any reference to Placees and that it shall have no liability to Placees whatsoever in connection with any such exercise or decision not to exercise. Placees will have no rights against Numis, the Company or any of their respective directors or employees under the Placing Agreement pursuant to the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 (as amended).

No Admission Document or Prospectus

The Placing Shares are being offered to a limited number of specifically invited persons only and will not be offered in such a way as to require an admission document or prospectus in the United Kingdom or in any other jurisdiction.

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), representation, warranty, or statement made by or on behalf of the Company or Numis or any other person and neither Numis nor 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 Numis, 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 Numis 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.

Registration and Settlement

Settlement of transactions in the Placing Shares (ISIN: GB00B608Z994) following Admission will take place within CREST provided that, subject to certain exceptions, Numis reserves the right to require settlement for, and delivery of, the Placing Shares (or a portion thereof) to 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.

Each Placee allocated Placing Shares in the Placing will be sent a trade confirmation or contract note stating the number of Placing Shares allocated to it at the Placing Price, the aggregate amount owed by such Placee to Numis (as agent for the Company) and settlement instructions. Each Placee agrees that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery and payment is completed in accordance with either the CREST or certificated settlement instructions that it has in place with Numis.

Unless otherwise notified by Numis, it is expected that settlement in respect of the Placing Shares will be on 18 October 2016 on a T+2 basis in accordance with the instructions set out in the trade confirmation or contract note.

Interest is chargeable daily on payments not received from Placees on the due date in accordance with the arrangements set out above at the rate of two percentage points above LIBOR as determined by Numis.

Each Placee is deemed to agree that, if it does not comply with these obligations, Numis may sell any or all of the Placing Shares allocated to that Placee on such Placee's behalf and retain from the proceeds, for Numis'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 Numis 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 Numis all such authorities and powers necessary to carry out any such sale and agrees to ratify and confirm all actions which Numis lawfully takes in pursuance of such sale.

If Placing Shares are to be delivered to a custodian or settlement agent, Placees should ensure that the trade confirmation or contract note 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. Placees will not be entitled to receive any fee or commission in connection with the Placing.

9. that, save in the event of fraud on the part of Numis (and to the extent permitted by the rules of the FCA), neither Numis, its ultimate holding company nor any direct or indirect subsidiary undertakings of that holding company, nor any of their respective directors and employees shall be liable to Placees for any matter arising out of Numis's role as placing agent or otherwise in connection with the Placing and that where any such liability nevertheless arises as a matter of law Placees will immediately waive any claim against any of such persons which you may have in respect thereof

29. agrees that the Company, Numis and their respective affiliates and others will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representations, warranties, acknowledgements and undertakings which are given to Numis on its own behalf and on behalf of the Company and are irrevocable and are irrevocably authorised to produce this Announcement or a copy thereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby;

30. agrees to indemnify on an after-tax basis and hold the Company, Numis and their respective affiliates harmless from any and all costs, claims, liabilities and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) arising out of or in connection with any breach of the representations, warranties, acknowledgements, agreements and undertakings in this Appendix and further agrees that the provisions of this Appendix shall survive after completion of the Placing;

36. to the fullest extent permitted by law, it acknowledges and agrees to the disclaimers contained in the Announcement including this Appendix.

The representations, warranties, acknowledgments and undertakings contained in this Appendix are given to Numis and the Company and are irrevocable and shall not be capable of termination in any circumstances.

The agreement to settle a Placee's subscription (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 Numis 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 Numis in the event that any of the Company and/or Numis has 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 Numis accordingly.

In addition, 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 by them of any Placing Shares or the agreement by them to subscribe for any Placing Shares.

Each Placee, and any person acting on behalf of the Placee, acknowledges that Numis does not owe any fiduciary or other duties to any Placee in respect of any representations, warranties, undertakings or indemnities in the Placing Agreement.

Each Placee and any person acting on behalf of the Placee acknowledges and agrees that Numis or any of its affiliates may, at their absolute discretion, agree to become a Placee in respect of some or all of the Placing Shares.

When a Placee or person acting on behalf of the Placee is dealing with Numis, any money held in an account with Numis on behalf of the Placee and/or any person acting on behalf of the Placee will not be treated as client money within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the FCA made under the FSMA. The Placee acknowledges that the money will not be subject to the protections conferred by the client money rules; as a consequence, this money will not be segregated from Numis's money in accordance with the client money rules and will be used by Numis in the course of its own business and the Placee will rank only as a general creditor of Numis.

All times and dates in this Announcement may be subject to amendment. Numis shall notify the Placees and any person acting on behalf of the Placees of any changes.

Past performance is no guide to future performance and persons needing advice should consult an independent financial adviser.
