Oxford BioDynamics Plc

("OBD" or the "Company" and, together with its subsidiaries, the "Group")

Exercise period extension of existing Share Options

13 December 2017, Oxford BioDynamics Plc ("OBD" or the "Company"), a biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of epigenetic biomarkers based on regulatory genome architecture, for use within the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry, announces an amendment to the exercise period for certain options over ordinary shares granted under its 2008 Share Option Scheme.

As disclosed in the Company's AIM Admission Document dated 1 December 2016 (Part 7, paragraph 10.3 and 10.4) ("Admission Document"), EMI ("EMI Options") and non-EMI ("Non-EMI Options") share options were granted to, amongst others, certain founders of the Company, being Christian Hoyer Millar (Chief Executive Officer and a Director), Dr. Alexandre Akoulitchev (Chief Scientific Officer and a Director) and Dr. Aroul Ramadass (Chief Technology Officer and a PDMR) on 16 July 2008 as well as to Alison Kibble (Non-Executive Director) on 31 October 2008, under the terms of the 2008 share option scheme ("2008 Plan"), as shown in the following table:

 
 Optionholder      Date of       EMI Options   Non-EMI     Total       Exercise 
                    Grant                       Options     Options     Price

The Company also has in place the 2016 Share Option Plan ("2016 Plan"). No awards of options either under the 2016 Plan or otherwise have been made to any of the individuals listed above since the Company's Admission to trading on AIM on 6 December 2016. The Company confirmed its intention in the Admission Document that no new options would be granted under the 2008 Plan and any future options would be granted under the 2016 Plan and the Company re-affirms that intention.

In order to ensure the continued alignment of the interests of shareholders and the option holders, in light of the liquidity of the Company's shares, the independent directors of the Company have approved an extension of the exercise period of the Non-EMI Options. The Non-EMI Options were due to expire on 31 December 2017 unless exercised prior to that date but will now expire on 31 December 2022. All other terms and conditions relating to the Non-EMI Options, including the exercise price, remain unchanged. The exercise period of the EMI Options will not be amended.

The change to the expiry date of the Non-EMI Options is notifiable pursuant to the EU Market Abuse Regulation. Notification and public disclosure of transactions by persons discharging managerial responsibilities and persons closely associated with them in accordance with the requirements of the EU Market Abuse Regulation can be found below:
