GBP1million before expenses through a conditional placing of up to
333,333,333 new ordinary shares (the "Placing Shares") with
institutional and other investors at a price of 0.3p per Placing

commitments to subscribe for 285,833,333 Placing Shares and
expressions of interest from certain Directors of the Company to

the same terms. The Placing is being arranged by Northland Capital
Partners Limited ("Northland") subject to the terms of a
conditional agreement between the Company and Northland (the
"Placing Agreement")
The Placing Shares will represent approximately 39 per cent. of
the enlarged issued share capital of the Company.
Use of proceeds
Subject to the Placing Agreement becoming unconditional and not
being terminated in accordance with its terms, the Placing will
raise up to GBP1 million before the deduction of expenses payable
by the Company. The net proceeds will be used to expand the
Company's US based sales team, to add consultancy capacity in both
the US and European markets, to further invest in the Company's
technology and further develop its branding and marketing
efforts.
Matt Cooper, Chairman of Imaginatik, commented:
"We are delighted with the support from new and existing
investors. These funds will enable us to complete the transition
from a software provider to the world's first full service
innovation company and give us the platform from which to
capitalise on this unique position in the market."
