Issue of new shares in respect of Share Options

Water Intelligence plc (AIM: WATR.L), a leading multinational provider of non-invasive leak detection and remediation services for both potable and non-potable water, announced on 12 November 2021 that it has raised GBP12.2m by way of a placing of 1,016,667 new ordinary shares of 1 penny each (the "Placing Shares") at 1,200 pence per share. The Company confirms that the Placing Shares are expected to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission") at 8.00am on 17 November 2021.

In addition, the Company announced that a franchisee had requested to exercise their options over a further 25,000 new ordinary shares of 1 penny each (the "Option Shares") and that the Option Shares were to be sold on essentially the same terms as the Placing Shares, for settlement on 17 November 2021, subject to Admission (together with the Placing, the "Transaction").

As part of the Transaction, the Company now announces that both the exercise of the options and sale of the Option Shares has been cancelled and that the Company will instead issue and allot a further 25,000 new ordinary shares ("New Ordinary Shares") to be sold alongside the Placing Shares, the consideration for which will be paid to the holder of the options in lieu of the issue of the Option Shares. It is anticipated that the New Ordinary Shares will be admitted to trading on AIM at the same time as the Placing Shares, being 8.00 a.m. on 17 November 2021, with settlement also on 17 November 2021. As a result of this transaction, the franchisee has agreed that their option over 25,000 shares has also been voided.

Total Voting Rights

As previously stated upon Admission, the issued share capital of the Company will be 19,447,688 shares of 1 penny each ("Ordinary Shares"), divided into 17,367,688 Ordinary Shares (of which 36,500 Ordinary Shares will be held by the Company in treasury) admitted to trading on AIM and which entitle the holder to 1 vote per ordinary share; and 2,080,000 B ordinary shares of 1 penny each which are not admitted to trading on AIM but which otherwise rank pari passu with the Ordinary Shares (save that they may not participate in any distribution or return of capital until they are fully paid).

Accordingly, the Company's total voting rights following Admission will be 19,411,188 shares. This total voting rights number may be used by shareholders at Admission as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

The Placing Shares and the New Ordinary Shares, when issued, will be fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares, including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid after the date of issue.
