The issue of the Placing Shares was conditional, inter alia, on Shareholder approval at a General Meeting. The Company is pleased to announce that at the General Meeting of its Shareholders held earlier today all Resolutions were duly passed.

Total Voting Rights
Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the Placing Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and it is expected that Admission will be effective and dealings will commence in respect of the Placing Shares at 8.00 a.m. on 20 April 2020.
Following Admission, the Company's issued share capital will consist of 59,387,845 Ordinary Shares. The Company holds 167,229 Ordinary Shares in Treasury, therefore on Admission the total number of voting rights will be 59,220,616. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculation by which they may determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
Defined terms used in this announcement have the meanings ascribed to them in the circular to shareholders dated 30 March 2020 unless otherwise defined.
Commenting on the successful placing, James Barham, Chief Executive Officer of PCI Pal, said:
"We are delighted to have received shareholder approval for this fundraise which has been well supported by our existing investors; and we welcome our new investors on-board as well.
"This additional capital will enable us to further increase our efforts in North America and strengthen product management across the Group, allowing us to continue with our ambitious growth plans.
"It also provides us with greater balance sheet strength and flexibility should it become needed and will allow the Company to consider potential new expansion opportunities in the future."
