NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN, INTO OR FROM THE UNITED STATES (INCLUDING ITS TERRITORIES AND POSSESSIONS, ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA), AUSTRALIA, CANADA, JAPAN, THE REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH SUCH RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION WOULD BE UNLAWFUL ("RESTRICTED JURISDICTIONS").

Cerillion plc

("Cerillion" or "the Company" or "the Group")

 

Proposed Director Placing

 Cerillion, the billing, charging and customer relationship management ("CRM") software solutions provider, announces that certain Directors of the Company are proposing to sell ordinary shares in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") as a result of investor demand, and in order to broaden the shareholder base of the Company and to increase liquidity in the Company's shares.

 

Louis Hall, CEO, Guy O'Connor, Senior Vice President for the Americas, and Oliver Gilchrist, CFO, together (the "Executive Directors") will together participate in a placing to sell up to 4,166,666 Ordinary Shares (the "Placing Shares") at 120 pence per share (the "Placing"). The Placing Shares represent approximately 14.1% of the Company's current issued share capital. Assuming the full amount of Placing Shares are sold, the Executive Directors will hold 12,118,686 Ordinary Shares in aggregate representing approximately 41.1% of the current issued share capital.

 

Shore Capital Stockbrokers Limited ("Shore Capital") is acting as sole Bookrunner in relation to the Placing.

The Executive Directors will, on completion of the sale, enter into a 12 month restriction on the sale of their Ordinary Shares (the "Locked-in Parties"). The Locked-in Parties have entered into irrevocable undertakings that they will not (and will procure, insofar as they are able, that any of their associates will not) dispose of any interest in ordinary shares for a period of 12 months following the Placing, save in certain very limited circumstances or without the written consent of the Company and Shore Capital.

This announcement contains inside information for the purposes of the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 ("MAR"). Market soundings, as defined in MAR, were taken in respect of the Placing, with the result that certain persons became aware of inside information, as permitted by MAR. That inside information is set out in this announcement. Therefore, those persons that received inside information in a market sounding are no longer in possession of inside information relating to the Company and its securities.
