ADVANCED ONCOTHERAPY PLC

("Advanced Oncotherapy" or the "Company")

Equity Subscription and Issue of Warrants

Total Voting Rights

Advanced Oncotherapy (AIM:AVO), the developer of LIGHT, the next-generation proton therapy system for cancer treatment, announces an equity fundraise of £1,465,000 before expenses. The fundraise has been conducted through a direct subscription with the Company (the "Subscription") for a total of 5,860,000 new Ordinary Shares of 25 pence each (the "Subscription Shares") at a price of 25 pence per share (the "Issue Price"). This Subscription has been undertaken to accommodate demand from investors who were unable to participate in fundraises announced on 28 June 2022 and 3 August 2022 (together c.£6.57m).

The Issue Price represents a premium of 20 per cent to the closing middle market price of an ordinary share on 18 August 2022.

Once issued, the Subscription Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing Ordinary Shares of the Company.

The net proceeds of the Subscription will be used for general corporate purposes as the Company progresses towards having a fully operational LIGHT system operating at 230 MeV by the end of summer 2022.

Under the terms of the Subscription, warrants to subscribe for 5,860,000 new Ordinary Shares will also be issued on or around 25 August 2022 to subscribers of Subscription Shares with an exercise price of 25 pence per share, exercisable up until 1 July 2026.

Application has been made for the 5,860,000 Subscription Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission") and it is expected that Admission will occur on or around 24 August 2022.

Total Voting Rights

Following Admission, the Company's enlarged issued share capital will comprise 507,231,209 Ordinary Shares, of 25 pence each ("Ordinary Shares"). The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury. Therefore, the total number of Ordinary Shares in the Company with voting rights on Admission will be 507,231,209. The aforementioned figure may be used by shareholders 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 share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
