Gresham Computing plc (LSE:GHT, "Company" or "Gresham") received notification on 13 May 2016 from Kestrel Partners LLP ("Kestrel") that on 13 May 2016 it acquired, on behalf of its discretionary clients, 50,000 ordinary shares of 5p each ("Shares") in the Company at a price of £1.00 per share. The notification also included the matters set out below.

Kestrel is the investment manager to Kestrel Opportunities, a cell of Guernsey Portfolios PCC Limited ("Kestrel Opportunities"), and various other clients. This disclosure relates to indirect Shares and voting rights in the Company that are managed by Kestrel on a discretionary basis.

Mr Royde is a partner of, and holds a beneficial interest in Kestrel. Mr Royde is also a shareholder in Kestrel Opportunities and is therefore deemed to have a beneficial interest in Kestrel Opportunities' entire legal holding in Gresham.

Prior to this purchase of Shares, Kestrel on a combined basis indirectly held Shares and voting rights over 7,802,209 Shares in the Company.

Of the Shares purchased, 40,000 were acquired on behalf of Kestrel Opportunities and following this transaction, Kestrel Opportunities holds (and consequently Mr Royde is deemed to have a beneficial interest in) 7,007,664 Shares in the Company. The remaining 10,000 Shares were purchased on behalf of Kestrel's other discretionary clients, in which Mr Royde has no beneficial interest, who, following this transaction, hold a further 844,545 Shares in the Company.

On a combined basis, Kestrel indirectly holds voting rights over 7,852,209 Shares in the Company, which represents approximately 12.41% per cent of the Company's issued share capital.
