Checkit, the global technology group, announces the exercise of options by John Wilson, Non-Executive Director, over 175,000 ordinary shares of 5 pence each ("Ordinary Shares") at an exercise price of 16.875 pence per Ordinary Share (the "Options"). No new Ordinary Shares have been issued as these shares were held and have been transferred by the Elektron Technology 2012 Employee Benefit Trust ("EBT") to satisfy the exercise of the Options.

Following this transaction John Wilson's total beneficial interest will be 2,775,000 Ordinary Shares representing approximately 1.49% of the Company's total issued share capital as at today's date.

Following this exercise of options, the Company's total issued share capital will remain unchanged, consisting of 186,100,851 Ordinary Shares with one voting right per share. There are no shares held in treasury. Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 186,100,851.

The above figure of 186,100,851 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, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
