("hVIVO" or the "Company")

Share Incentive Plan and PDMR Dealings

London, UK, 24 January 2019: hVIVO plc (AIM: HVO), an industry leading clinical development services business pioneering human disease models based upon viral and allergen challenge, announces that as part of the Company's commitment to encouraging all employees to be shareholders in the business, a total of 1,689,258 Ordinary Shares of 5 pence each (the "New Ordinary Shares") have been granted to employees pursuant to a new employee share incentive plan introduced by hVIVO on 21 January 2019 (the "Share Incentive Plan").

A total of 138 employees were found eligible and applied for the Share Incentive Plan and have been granted 12,241 free Ordinary Shares each representing approximately £3,600 at the purchase price. The free shares were awarded on 21 January 2019 and are subject to a 3 year forfeiture period.

Application has been made to AIM for the admission of the New Ordinary Shares ("Admission"), which will rank pari passu in all respects with the Company's existing shares in issue, and Admission is expected to occur on 25 January 2019.

Following Admission, the total number of ordinary shares with voting rights in issue will be 82,296,965 and this figure 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 to their interest in, the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
