Location Sciences Group PLC
("Location Sciences" or the "Company")
Issue of shares to directors in lieu of fees and
change to Total Voting Rights
Location Sciences Group PLC, (AIM: LSAI), the leading location
verification company, announces the issue of a total of 16,969,098
new ordinary shares of 0.1p each in the Company ("New Ordinary
Shares") to a number of directors as payment for fees owed for
certain periods since 1 February 2020 totalling GBP81,451.67
further details of which are set out below. The New Ordinary Shares
are being issued at a price of 0.48p per share, a 6.7 per cent.
premium to the closing mid-market share price on 29 October
2020.
As previously announced, following the onset of Covid-19, the
Board took swift cost reduction measures to mitigate the impact of
the downturn in revenues. These included reductions in cash fees
payable to certain non-executive directors for the period from 1
February 2020 until the end of December 2020 totalling
approximately GBP35,789. These directors have now agreed to take
payment of these cash fees via the issue of 7,456,202 New Ordinary
Shares. In addition, the appointment terms of certain non-executive
directors include the ability for the Company to issue ordinary
shares to these directors for their services in lieu of cash fees
payable. The Company has therefore decided to pay these
non-executive directors via the issue of 9,512,896 New Ordinary
Shares for the period from 1 May 2020 until the end of December
2020 with a value as at the date of issue of approximately
GBP45,661.
Given the current highly uncertain economic climate and the
Company's limited cash resources, settling these accrued director
fees in ordinary shares is considered appropriate and in the
interests of the Company and its shareholders.
The New Ordinary Shares being issued to the directors of the
Company and their resulting interests in the Company's ordinary
shares are set out below:
Director Role N o. of Interest in Percentage

Application will be made for the New Ordinary Shares to be
admitted to trading on AIM and it is expected that admission will
take place on or around 4 November 2020 ("Admission"). The New
Ordinary Shares will represent approximately 2.89% of the Company's
issued ordinary share capital following their issue and will rank
pari passu in all respects with the Company's existing ordinary
shares.
Total Voting Rights
Upon Admission, the issued share capital of the Company will
consist of 587,337,398 ordinary shares of 0.1p each . The Company
does not hold any shares in treasury. Therefore, the total number
of voting rights in the Company from Admission will be 587,337,398.
This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the
calculations by which they 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.
Further details and the information required in accordance with
the requirements of Article 19(3) of the EU Market Abuse Regulation
No 596/2014 are set out at the end of this announcement.
