Living Cell Technologies Limited Company Announcement

LCT’s Share Purchase Plan successful

1 May 2012: Sydney, Australia & Auckland, New Zealand – Living Cell Technologies Limited’s (ASX: LCT; OTCQX: LVCLY) Share Purchase Plan has met expectations and raised over $1 million.

The Board was pleased with the uptake and with the interest shown by shareholders in both Australia and New Zealand.

The new capital will be used to conduct clinical trials with NTCELL for Parkinson’s disease. The money will also be used to conduct research and development on using NTCELL to treat other neurodegenerative diseases and to help meet operating expenses.

Shares will be allotted to subscribers at an issue price of $0.0605 on Thursday 3 May, 2012.

“This is a very good result in the current economic climate and we’re grateful for the continued support of shareholders,” says CEO Dr Andrea Grant. “With both the DIABECELL[®] product progressing well in our joint venture Diatranz Otsuka Limited and our upcoming development of NTCELL, LCT is in the exciting position of potentially offering two new treatments for two major diseases, both of which will address the shortcomings of therapies currently available.”
