724,902 new ordinary shares ("Historical Shares") were issued by the Company between October and November 2021 to settle third-party outstanding liabilities of GBP69,760. Due to an administrative oversight by the Company, no announcement or application was made for these shares to be admitted to trading on the AQSE Market.

Admisssion of Shares

In aggregate application has been made for 16,922,902 new ordinary shares to be admitted to trading on AQSE which is expected to occur on or around 8 June 2022 ("Admission")

Appointment of Joint Broker and Financial Adviser

The Company announces that it has appointed Peterhouse Capital Limited as joint broker and financial adviser to the Company with immediate effect.

Broker Warrants

As part of their renumeration Oberon and Peterhouse have been granted warrants over 540,000 new ordinary shares exercisable at a price of 5 pence per share at any time until third anniversary of Admission.

Total Voting Rights

Following Admission of the 16,922,902 new ordinary shares, the Company's issued share capital will consist of 118,311,869 (including the 724,902 ordinary shares issued but not admitted to trading on AQSE previously) ordinary shares with voting rights. The new ordinary shares will rank pari passu with the existing ordinary shares. No ordinary shares are held in treasury at the date of this announcement and therefore following the Admission, the total number of Ordinary Shares in the Company with voting rights will be 118,311,869.

The above total voting rights figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculation by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company.

Ian Roberts, CEO of TruSpine, commented: "This fundraise will take us to the next stage of development as we look towards completing the final validation and verification of packaging and instrumentation of Cervi-LOK(TM). This is a critical phase leading up to lodgement of the FDA 510k application and we look forward to what we hope will be a rapid move towards commercialisation later this year."
