Convertible Loan Notes Term Extended to February 2021

Koovs plc (AIM: KOOV), the Western fashion experts for online Indian consumers, announces that it has agreed with the Noteholders of the Secured Convertible Loan Notes due in August 2019 (the "SCLN") to amend the Convertible Loan Note Instrument ("The Instrument") to extend the term by a further 18 months. The Noteholders comprise the Company's Chairman, Lord Waheed Alli, and Michinoko Limited.

The Initial Expiry Term Date for the SCLN was 18 August 2019 and following the amendments to The Instrument this will be extended by a further 18 months to February 2021.

The amendment to The Instrument also provides that the Noteholders, acting by investor majority, will have the right to serve a Redemption Notice on the Company at any time following the Initial Expiry Term. All the other terms of The Instrument remain unchanged. As noted in the Company's 2019 annual results statement which was also released this morning, and whilst not legally binding, the Directors of the Company have received confirmation from Lord Alli (who can act as the investor majority) that he does not intend to serve a Redemption Notice on the Company for at least 12 months from the approval of the 2019 annual financial statements.

Related Party Transaction

The amendment of The Instrument constitutes a related party transaction pursuant to the AIM Rules for Companies (the "AIM Rules"). The Directors of the Company (excluding Lord Waheed Alli), having consulted with Strand Hanson Limited in its capacity as the Company's nominated adviser for the purposes of the AIM Rules, consider the terms of the amendment of The Instrument to be fair and reasonable insofar as shareholders are concerned.
