("Ilika", the "Group" or the "Company")
Award of Share Options, Exercise of Options and Total Voting
Rights
Ilika (AIM: IKA), a pioneer in solid-state battery technology,
announces that on 14 December 2023 it granted options to Executive
Directors and employees under the Long Term Incentive Plan approved
by shareholders in 2018 ("LTIP") and the EMI employee option
scheme.
LTIP
Ilika awarded nominal value options under the LTIP over 633,673
ordinary shares of 1p each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") to
two Executive Directors and options over a further 20,000 Ordinary
Shares to employees. Each award vests on the achievement of certain
performance targets over a three-year period.
EMI option scheme
Ilika granted market value options over 2,090,950 ordinary
shares of 1p each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") to an
Executive Director and employees under the Company EMI option
scheme. EMI options vest on the achievement of certain performance
targets over a three-year period.
The awards are intended to align the incentives of the Executive
Directors and other senior employees with the Company's performance
and outcomes for shareholders over the long term and to provide
effective and attractive levels of reward, based on delivering
strong performance in a fair and proportionate manner.
In total, options over 2,744,623 Ordinary Shares have been
granted representing 1.7% of issued share capital.
Details of grants issued under the LTIP and EMI option scheme by
each Executive Director are set out in the table below, together
with the total number of Ordinary Shares each Executive Director

Exercise of Options and Total Voting Rights
Ilika also announces that following the vesting of options under
the Company's EMI share option schemes, 75,000 options with an
exercise price of 25.5p, have been converted into ordinary shares
of one penny each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares"). Accordingly,
the Company has applied to the London Stock Exchange for 75,000
Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It
is expected that Admission will occur at 8.00am on 15 December
2023.
The options represent in aggregate 0.05 per cent of the
Company's issued share capital.
Total Voting Rights
Following Admission, the Company's issued share capital will
comprise 158,975,667 ordinary shares of one penny each and that
number may be used by shareholders in the Company 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. The Company does not
hold any shares in treasury.
