**Norman Broadbent plc** ([LON:NBB](https://www.directorstalkinterviews.com/company/norman-broadbent-plc/nbb.l)),
a leading London quoted Professional Services firm offering a diversified portfolio
of integrated Leadership Acquisition & Advisory Services, has announced that it 
has raised £75,347 before expenses by way of a subscription of 1,116,252 ordinary
shares at 6.75 pence per Ordinary Share.

The Issue Price represents a premium of approximately 12.5 per cent to the closing
mid-market price of NBB’s existing Ordinary Shares on 3^(rd) December 2021 (being
the last business day prior to this Announcement).

The Subscription is not being underwritten and is conditional on admission of the
Subscription Shares to trading on AIM. The Subscription is being conducted pursuant
to the existing authorities granted to the Directors of the Company at its annual
general meeting on 25 June 2021. The Subscription Shares represent approximately
1.8 per cent. of the Company’s issued share capital as enlarged by the Subscription
Shares.

Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the Subscription Shares
to be admitted to trading on AIM and it is expected that such Admission will occur
at 8.00 a.m. 7^(th) December 2021. The Subscription Shares will be issued credited
as fully paid and will rank in full for all dividends and other distributions declared,
made or paid after the admission of the Subscription Shares, and will otherwise 
be identical to and rank on Admission _pari passu_ in all respects with the existing
Ordinary Shares. The Subscription Shares are not being made available to the public
and are not being offered or sold into any jurisdiction where it would be unlawful
to do so.

**Related party transactions: substantial shareholder participation**

The Subscription is with one Substantial Shareholder, (as defined by the AIM Rules)
who has subscribed for Subscription Shares at the Issue Price. Details of the Subscription
Shares for which Substantial Shareholder will be subscribing are displayed below,
together with the expected shareholdings at Admission:  

| Director | Number of Ordinary Shares held before the Subscription | Percentage of current issued Ordinary Share capital | Number of Subscription Shares to be subscribed for | Number of Ordinary Shares held on Admission | Percentage of enlarged Ordinary Share Capital | 
| Downing LLP | 9,800,620 | 16.44% | 1,116,252 | 10,916,872 | 17.97% |

The Substantial Shareholder participating in the Subscription will be classified
as related parties under the AIM Rules. The Directors consider, having consulted
with WH Ireland Limited as the Company’s nominated adviser, that the terms of this
transaction are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company’s shareholders are concerned.

**Total Voting Rights**

Following Admission, Norman Broadbent will have 60,740,757 Ordinary Shares in issue,
none of which will be held in treasury. Accordingly, shareholders may use this figure
as the denominator for the calculations by which they will 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.
