                              CMR Fuel Cells Plc                               

                           (`CMR' or the `Company')                            

                      Samsung Joint Development Agreement                      

CMR Fuel Cells Plc, the Cambridge based compact fuel cell stack specialist, is
pleased to announce that it has entered into a non-exclusive Joint Development
Agreement (`JDA') with Samsung SDI Co. Ltd. (`Samsung') of Korea.

Under the terms of the JDA, Samsung and CMR will collaborate to produce a
Direct Methanol Fuel Cell system demonstrator incorporating CMR's mixed
reactant stack technology. The system will be evaluated as a potential
alternative and replacement for today's conventional battery solutions. CMR has
already delivered the first such stack to Samsung.

John Halfpenny, CEO, CMR, commented:

`We are delighted to be working with Samsung SDI who is a world leader in the
delivery of innovative, leading-edge consumer products. Samsung SDI is in the
vanguard of major OEMs who recognise the potential that fuel cells have to
power the next generation of connected, feature rich, `always on' electronic
devices'.

CMR is targeting the portable electronics industry as the first application for
the fuel cell stack products that it is developing. CMR believes that this
market offers significant revenue opportunities resulting from the strong and
pressing commercial need for extended run-times for portable consumer products
and the sector's history of consistently and rapidly adopting new technologies
to meet consumer demand.
