("Instem" or "the Company")

Exercise of Options, Director/PDMR Dealing and Total Voting Rights

Instem plc (AIM: INS), a leading provider of IT solutions to the global life sciences market, announces that it was notified on 4 January 2023 that certain of the Company's Directors and members of its senior management team exercised share options ("Share Options") over, in aggregate, 61,404 ordinary shares of 10 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares"). The Share Options were exercised on 4 January 2023 at an exercise price of GBP0.90 per Ordinary Share. The Share Options were granted on 14 January 2013 and would have lapsed if not exercised before 14 January 2023.

Subsequently, also on 4 January 2023, certain Directors sold the Ordinary Shares issued on the exercise of Share Options in their entirety at a price of GBP7.00 per Ordinary Share.

Details of the Directors (each of whom is a person discharging managerial responsibility or "PDMR") who exercised Share Options and subsequently sold Ordinary Shares are as follows:

Issue of Equity and Admission

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the admission of the 61,404 new Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM ("New Ordinary Shares"). Admission is expected to take place at 8.00 a.m. on 10 January 2023.

Total voting rights

Following the issue and allotment of the above New Ordinary Shares, the Company's issued share capital comprises 22,765,712 Ordinary Shares. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury. Therefore the total number of voting rights in the Company is 22,765,712.

The figure of 22,765,712 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 of their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
