Completion of Placing

Ticker: AMOI

Anemoi international LTD

("Anemoi" or the "Company")

Completion of Placing

The board of directors of Anemoi is pleased to announce the successful completion of a placing of Depositary Interests ("DIs") representing interests in ordinary shares of no par value in the Company ("Ordinary Shares").

A total of 6,000,000 new DIs (the "Placing DIs") have been placed by Peterhouse Capital Limited ("Peterhouse") at a price of GBP0.04 per Placing DIs (the "Placing") with existing and new investors ("Placees") raising gross proceeds of approximately GBP240,000. The Placing DIs represent Ordinary Shares representing 20 per cent. of the Ordinary Share capital of the Company prior to the Placing.

The Placing proceeds, together with the Group's existing cash resources, will be used to expand the Company's balance sheet in advance of a reverse takeover transaction ("RTO").

An application has been made for the Ordinary Shares represented by the Placing DIs to be admitted to a Standard Listing on the Official List and to trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will take place at or around 8.00 a.m. (London time) on 13 April 2021 and that dealings in the Placing DIs will commence at the same time.

The Ordinary Shares represented by the Placing DIs will, when issued, be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing issued Ordinary Shares.

Grant of Warrants

Subject to Admission, the Company will grant one 'A' Warrant and one 'B' Warrant to each Placee for each Placing DI purchased by the Placee pursuant to the Placing.

-- The 'A' Warrants have an exercise period of one year from the first anniversary of the date of grant and entitle an 'A' Warrant holder to subscribe for one Ordinary Share in the Company for each 'A' Warrant held at a subscription price of GBP0.08.

-- The 'B' Warrants have an exercise period of one year from the second anniversary of the date of grant and entitle a 'B' Warrant holder to subscribe for one Ordinary Share in the Company for each 'B' Warrant held at a subscription price of GBP0.12.

-- In each case, the subscription rights and price per Ordinary Share are subject to adjustment in the event of any share splits or share consolidations by the Company. The 'A' Warrants and 'B' Warrants are (i) unquoted; (ii) certificated; (iii) transferable subject to the consent of the Company's board of directors; and (iv) without any shareholder rights.

-- Accelerated exercise rights apply to both classes of warrant in the event of further equity fundraises by the Company (including in connection with a merger, acquisition or reverse takeover transaction).

-- Both the 'A' Warrants and the 'B' Warrants are callable by the Company at any time during their respective exercise periods upon the Company's share price reaching the subscription price of, respectively, GBP0.08 per share for the 'A' Warrants and GBP0.12 per share for the 'B' Warrants. Any warrants that remain unexercised at the end of the relevant exercise period will automatically lapse.

Duncan Soukup, Chief Executive Officer of Anemoi, commented:

"We are extremely grateful for the support of both existing and new shareholders. The proceeds of the Placing strengthen the Company's balance sheet and should enhance the Company's chances of completing a successful RTO."

Following Admission, the total issued share capital of the Company will be 36,000,000 Ordinary Shares of no par value. 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, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
