CAP-XX Limited, a world leader in the design and manufacture of supercapacitors and energy management systems, today announces its intention to raise gross proceeds of up to GBP2.84 million before expenses by way of a placing of new Ordinary Shares of no par value, (the "New Shares") alongside the sale of up to 10,498,700 existing Ordinary Shares of no par value (the "Sale Shares") (together, the "Placing"). It is intended that the New Shares and the Sale Shares (together, the "Placing Shares"), will be sold to new and existing institutional investors at a fixed price of 5.5 pence per Placing Share (the "Issue Price") .

The Sale Shares are currently held by Smartequity EIS Pty Ltd (the "Selling Shareholder "), the independent third party with responsibility for managing the Company's employee share plan, on behalf of certain of the Company's directors and employees following the exercise of options by those individuals as announced on 10 December 2020.

The Placing is being conducted through an accelerated bookbuild process (the "Bookbuild") which will be launched immediately following this Announcement, in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in the Appendix to this Announcement. The Bookbuild is being managed by Cenkos Securities plc, the Company's joint broker ("Cenkos").

million for the Company, and the sale of up to 10,498,700   Sale Shares. 
   --    The net proceeds from the proposed placing of the New Shares will be used to: 

- increase the sales and marketing capacity of the business to support an increased level of customer enquiries and activity in the 'Internet of Things' (the "IoT ") and an increased activity level across the business following the acquisition of the Murata production line;

- fund new product development and additional investment in supply chain systems and machine parts;

- finance the commissioning of the DMH production line in 2022, following the acquisition of the production rights as part of the Murata acquisition;

Additional Information

Background to and reasons for the Placing

CAP-XX is a world leader in the design and manufacture of supercapacitors and energy management systems and is looking to build on the initial success that has come from the successful installation of the Murata production lines following their acquisition in 2019.

The Company has made excellent progress in the installation and set-up of the former Murata production lines at the Seven Hills manufacturing facility. The Board has been particularly pleased by the high level of retention of former Murata customers, which is expected to reach approximately 75% by value. Resulting from this initial success, the Company is now looking to invest in sales and marketing capacity in order to service the increasing levels of customer enquiries being received. There are also higher levels of activity being seen across the IoT and electrification of mobility market segments, being driven by strong underlying macro growth drivers.

The sales order book continues to grow and as at the start of July 2021 was 160% higher than at the end of the 2020 financial year, reflecting a combination of new customer enquiries and repeat orders from former Murata customers.

The Company continues to pursue legal action against third parties for patent infringements and the protection of the Company's intellectual property is a core responsibility of the business. In addition, the Company has seen increased spending on product development and the Placing will continue to support this investment in the business for the future.

Use of Proceeds

In order to take full advantage of the market opportunities available, the proposed placing of the New Shares is expected to raise gross proceeds up to GBP2.84 million (before expenses) for the Company, which will enable it to:

-- increase sales and marketing capacity of the business to support an increased level of customer enquiries and activity in the IoT and an increased activity level across the business following the acquisition of the Murata production line;

-- fund new product development and additional investment in supply chain systems and machine parts;

-- finance the commissioning of the DMH production line in 2022, following the acquisition of the production rights as part of the Murata acquisition;

   --    support the Company in pursuing patent and licensing infringements; and 
   --    provide additional working capital for the business. 

The Placing

The Placing is subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Appendix to this announcement (which forms part of this announcement, such announcement and the Appendix to this Announcement, together being this "Announcement").

The timing for the close of the Bookbuild and the allocation of the Placing Shares will be determined by Cenkos and the Company. The Placing is not conditional upon the approval of the Company's shareholders. A further announcement will be made following closing of the Placing, confirming the final details.

Proposed Sale of Sale Shares

The Sale Shares are held via the CAP-XX employee share plan on behalf of certain of the Company's directors and employees, following the exercise of employee share options which was notified on 10 December 2020. The CAP-XX employee share plan is managed by an independent third party, the Selling Shareholder, and the proposed disposal of the Sale Shares will be effected through a single transaction to sell a consolidated holding rather than individuals providing separate instructions to a broker.

Cenkos has entered into an agreement with the Selling Shareholder to facilitate the sale of the Sale Shares.

The beneficial owners of the Sale Shares include Mr Patrick Elliott (Non-Executive Chairman), Mr Bruce Grey (Non-Executive Director), Mr Anthony Kongats (Chief Executive Officer), Pierre Mars (Vice President of Quality and Applications), Mr Mike Taylor (Chief Financial Officer), Dr Alex Bilyk (Vice President of Research & Development) and Mr Song Hee Lau (Sales Manager Asia Pacific), all of whom are considered to be persons discharging managerial responsibilities (PDMRs).

Subject to demand, it is intended that up to 10,498,700 Sale Shares will be placed at the Issue Price.

Admission, settlement and CREST

Application will be made for the New Shares to be issued pursuant to the Placing to be admitted to trading on the AIM market ("AIM") of London Stock Exchange plc (the "London Stock Exchange") ("Admission").

Settlement for the Placing Shares and Admission is expected to take place on or before 8.00 a.m. on 10 August 2021. The Placing is conditional upon, among other things, Admission becoming effective and the placing agreement between the Company and Cenkos (the "Placing Agreement") not being terminated in accordance with its terms.

3.13 To the fullest extent permissible by law, neither Cenkos, the Company nor any of their respective affiliates or persons acting on behalf of any of them shall have any responsibility or liability to Placees (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise). In particular, neither Cenkos, nor the Company, nor any of their respective affiliates or persons acting on behalf of any of them shall have any responsibility or liability (including to the extent permissible by law, any fiduciary duties) in respect of Cenkos' conduct of the Bookbuild or of such alternative method of effecting the Placing as Cenkos and the Company may agree.

Any such extension or waiver will not affect Placees' commitments as set out in this Announcement.

4.4 Cenkos shall have no liability to any Placee (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise) in respect of any decision it may make as to whether or not to waive or to extend the time and/or date for the satisfaction of any condition to the Placing nor for any decision it may make as to the satisfaction of any condition or in respect of the Placing generally and by participating in the Placing each Placee agrees that any such decision is within the absolute discretion of Cenkos.

   5.               Right to terminate under the Placing Agreement 

5.1 Cenkos may, after having to the extent practicable in the circumstances consulted with the Company, at any time before Admission of the New Shares terminate the Placing and the Placing Agreement in accordance with its terms in certain limited circumstances including, inter alia, if:

5.1.1 any statement contained in the Placing documents has, in the opinion of Cenkos (acting reasonably), been discovered to be materially untrue, incorrect or misleading; or

5.1.2 there has, in the opinion of Cenkos (acting reasonably), been a material breach of any of the warranties or any other obligations on the part of the Company under the Placing Agreement which is material in the context of the Placing.

5.2 Cenkos may also, after having to the extent practicable in the circumstances consulted with the Company, terminate the Placing Agreement, in accordance with its terms if, at any time prior to Admission of the Placing Shares, inter alia, there happens, develops or comes into effect:

5.2.1 any occurrence of any kind which (by itself or together with any other such occurrence) in Cenkos' opinion is likely to materially and adversely affect the market's position or prospects of the Group taken as a whole; or

5.2.2 any other crisis of international or national effect or any change in any currency exchange rates or controls or in any financial, political, economic or market conditions or in market sentiment which, in any such case, in the opinion of Cenkos is materially adverse to the Placing.

5.3 By participating in the Placing, Placees agree that the exercise by Cenkos of any right of termination or other discretion under the Placing Agreement shall be within the absolute discretion of Cenkos (acting in accordance with the terms of the Placing Agreement) and that it need not make any reference to, or consult with, Placees and that it shall have no liability to Placees whatsoever in connection with any such exercise.

   6.               No Prospectus 

6.1 No offering document or prospectus has been or will be submitted to be approved by the FCA or submitted to the London Stock Exchange in relation to the Placing.

6.2 Placees' commitments will be made solely on the basis of the information contained in this Announcement (including this Appendix) released by the Company today and any information previously published by the Company by notification to a Regulatory Information Service and subject to the further terms set forth in any contract note to be provided to individual Placees. Each Placee, by accepting a participation in the Placing, agrees that the content of this Announcement (including this Appendix) and all other publicly available information previously published by the Company by notification to a Regulatory Information Service is exclusively the responsibility of the Company and confirms that it has neither received nor relied on any other information, representation, warranty or statement made by or on behalf of the Company or Cenkos or any other person and neither the Company nor Cenkos nor any other person will be liable for any Placee's decision to participate in the Placing based on any other information, representation, warranty or statement which the Placees may have obtained or received. Each Placee acknowledges and agrees that it has relied on its own investigation of the business, financial or other position of the Group in accepting a participation in the Placing. Nothing in this paragraph shall exclude the liability of any person for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation by that person.

   7.               Registration and Settlement 

7.1 Settlement of transactions in the Placing Shares (ISIN: AU0000XINAS1 ) following Admission will take place within the system administered by Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited ("CREST"). Subject to certain exceptions, Cenkos and the Company reserve the right to require settlement for, and delivery of, the Placing Shares (or any part thereof) to Placees by such other means that they deem necessary if delivery or settlement is not possible or practicable within the CREST system within the timetable set out in this Announcement or would not be consistent with the regulatory requirements in the Placee's jurisdiction.

7.2 Each Placee allocated Placing Shares in the Placing will be sent a trade confirmation in accordance with the standing arrangements in place with Cenkos stating the number of Placing Shares allocated to it at the Placing Price, the aggregate amount owed by such Placee to Cenkos and settlement instructions. Each Placee agrees that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery and payment is completed in accordance with the standing CREST or certificated settlement instructions in respect of the Placing Shares that it has in place with Cenkos.

7.3 It is expected that settlement for the Placing Shares will be on 10 August 2021 in accordance with the instructions set out in the trade confirmation.

7.4 Each Placee is deemed to agree that, if it does not comply with these obligations, Cenkos may sell any or all of the Placing Shares allocated to that Placee on such Placee's behalf and retain from the proceeds, for Cenkos' account and benefit, an amount equal to the aggregate amount owed by the Placee. The relevant Placee will, however, remain liable for any shortfall below the aggregate amount owed by it and may be required to bear any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax (together with any penalties) or other similar taxes imposed in any jurisdiction which may arise upon the sale of such Placing Shares on such Placee's behalf.

7.5 If Placing Shares are to be delivered to a custodian or settlement agent, Placees should ensure that the trade confirmation is copied and delivered immediately to the relevant person within that organisation.

7.6 Insofar as Placing Shares are registered in a Placee's name or that of its nominee or in the name of any person for whom a Placee is contracting as agent or that of a nominee for such person, such Placing Shares should, subject as provided below, be so registered free from any liability to UK stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax. If there are any circumstances in which any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax or other similar taxes or duties (including any interests and penalties relating thereto) is payable in respect of the allocation, allotment, issue, sale, transfer or delivery of the Placing Shares (or, for the avoidance of doubt, if any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax is payable in connection with any subsequent transfer of or agreement to transfer Placing Shares), neither Cenkos nor the Company shall be responsible for the payment thereof.

8.1.29 undertakes that the person whom it specifies for registration as holder of the Placing Shares will be (i) itself or (ii) its nominee, as the case may be. Neither Cenkos nor the Company will be responsible for any liability to stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax or other similar taxes resulting from a failure to observe this requirement;

8.1.30 acknowledges that these terms and conditions and any agreements entered into by it pursuant to the terms and conditions set out in this Appendix, and all non--contractual or other obligations arising out of or in connection with them, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales and it submits (on behalf of itself and on behalf of any person on whose behalf it is acting) to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts as regards any claim, dispute or matter arising out of any such contract (including any dispute regarding the existence, validity or termination of such contract or relating to any non--contractual or other obligation arising out of or in connection with such contract), except that enforcement proceedings in respect of the obligation to make or procure payment for the Placing Shares may be taken by either the Company or Cenkos in any jurisdiction in which the relevant Placee is incorporated or in which any of its securities have a quotation on a recognised stock exchange;

8.1.31 except as set out in Clause 8.1.32 below, represents and warrants that it has neither received nor relied on any 'inside information' (for the purposes of MAR and section 56 of the Criminal Justice Act 1993) concerning the Company prior to or in connection with accepting the invitation to participate in the Placing and is not purchasing Placing Shares on the basis of material non--public information;

8.1.32 if it has received any 'inside information' (for the purposes of MAR and section 56 of the Criminal Justice Act 1993) in relation to the Company and its securities, confirms that it has received such information within the market soundings regime provided for in article 11 of MAR and associated delegated regulations and it has not: (i) dealt (or attempted to deal) in the securities of the Company; (ii) encouraged, recommended or induced another person to deal in the securities of the Company; or (iii) unlawfully disclosed inside information to any person, prior to the information being made publicly available;

8.1.33 represent, warrants and undertakes that its purchase of Placing Shares is in full compliance with applicable laws and regulations;

8.1.34 agrees that the Company, Cenkos and their respective affiliates and others will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representations, warranties, acknowledgements, agreements, and undertakings which are given to Cenkos on its own behalf and on behalf of the Company and are irrevocable and it irrevocably authorises the Company and Cenkos to produce this Announcement, pursuant to, in connection with, or as may be required by any applicable law or regulation, administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters set forth herein;

8.1.35 acknowledges that neither the Company nor Cenkos owes any fiduciary or other duties to any Placee in respect of any acknowledgments, confirmations, undertakings, representations, warranties or indemnities in the Placing Agreement; and

8.1.36 acknowledges and agrees that its commitment to take up Placing Shares on the terms set out in this Announcement (including this Appendix) will continue notwithstanding any amendment that may now or in the future be made to the terms and conditions of the Placing and that Placees will have no right to be consulted or require that their consent be obtained with respect to the Company or Cenkos' conduct of the Placing.

8.2 The foregoing representations, warranties, agreements, undertakings, acknowledgements and confirmations are given for the benefit of the Company as well as Cenkos and are irrevocable.

8.3 The agreement to allot and issue Placing Shares to Placees (and/or to persons for whom such Placee is contracting as agent) free of stamp duty and stamp duty reserve tax relates only to their allotment and issue to Placees, or such persons as they nominate as their agents, direct from the Company for the Placing Shares in question. Such agreement also assumes that the Placing Shares are not being acquired in connection with arrangements to issue depositary receipts or to issue or transfer the Placing Shares into a clearance service. If there are any such arrangements, or the settlement relates to any other dealing in the Placing Shares, stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax or other similar taxes may be payable, for which neither the Company nor Cenkos will be responsible and the Placees shall indemnify the Company and Cenkos on an after--tax basis for any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax paid by them in respect of any such arrangements or dealings. If this is the case, each Placee should seek its own advice and notify Cenkos accordingly. Placees are advised to consult with their own advisers regarding the tax aspects of their subscription for Placing Shares.

8.4 The Company and Cenkos are not liable to bear any transfer taxes that arise on a sale of Placing Shares subsequent to their acquisition by Placees or for transfer taxes arising otherwise than under the laws of the United Kingdom. Each Placee should, therefore, take its own advice as to whether any such transfer tax liability arises and notify Cenkos accordingly. Furthermore, each Placee agrees to indemnify on an after--tax basis and hold Cenkos and the Company and their respective affiliates harmless from any and all interest, fines or penalties in relation to stamp duty, stamp duty reserve tax and all other similar duties or taxes to the extent that such interest, fines or penalties arise from the default or delay of that Placee or its agent.

8.5 In addition, Placees should note that they will be liable for any stamp duty and all other stamp, issue, securities, transfer, registration, documentary or other duties or taxes (including any interest, fines or penalties relating thereto) payable outside the UK by them or any other person on the acquisition by them of any Placing Shares or the agreement by them to acquire any Placing Shares.

8.6 Each Placee and any person acting on behalf of the Placee acknowledges and agrees that Cenkos or any of its affiliates may, at its absolute discretion, agree to become a Placee in respect of some or all of the Placing Shares.

8.7 When a Placee or person acting on behalf of the Placee is dealing with Cenkos, any money held in an account with Cenkos on behalf of the Placee and/or any person acting on behalf of the Placee will not be treated as client money within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the FCA made under the FSMA. The Placee acknowledges that the money will not be subject to the protections conferred by the client money rules; as a consequence, this money will not be segregated from Cenkos' money in accordance with the client money rules and will be used by Cenkos in the course of its own business and the Placee will rank only as a general creditor of Cenkos.

8.8 All times and dates in this Announcement may be subject to amendment. Cenkos shall notify the Placees and any person acting on behalf of the Placees of any changes.
