Open Offer

The Company announced earlier today that valid acceptances had been received from Qualifying Shareholders for a total of 67,666,314 new Ordinary Shares (the "Open Offer Shares") under the Open Offer. The Open Offer was conditional upon the passing of the Resolutions at the General Meeting.

As a result of the Resolutions being passed, and subject to Admission becoming effective, 67,666,314 Open Offer Shares will be issued in connection with the Open Offer, raising approximately £406,000 (before expenses) for the Company at the Issue Price of 0.60 pence per Open Offer Share.  Further announcements are expected to be made in due course in relation to the application of the net proceeds of the Open Offer.

Commenting, Jane McCracken, Interim Non-Executive Chair of Tern, said:

"I would like to thank those shareholders who participated in the Open Offer for their support. Our focus remains firmly on realisations and the proceeds of the Open Offer are intended to make an important contribution to helping protect existing value, preserving exit potential, and supporting Tern's direct portfolio companies, especially Device Authority and Talking Medicines. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Rob Stevens, an adviser to the Company on shareholder relations, for the work he has undertaken which has provided valuable insights into the views of some of Tern's more material shareholders.

"Tern's Board and management team are all working hard to deliver shareholder value and I look forward to providing further updates in due course."

Director and PDMR participation in the Open Offer

As announced earlier today, Iain Ross will be subscribing for 263,401 Open Offer Shares and following Admission Iain Ross will be beneficially interested in 2,107,209 Ordinary Shares representing approximately 0.26% of the enlarged issued ordinary share capital in the Company. Albert Sisto will be subscribing for 1,500,394 Open Offer Shares and following Admission Albert Sisto will be beneficially interested in 22,626,490 Ordinary Shares representing approximately 2.76% of the enlarged issued ordinary share capital in the Company.

The notifications below, made in accordance with the requirements of the EU Market Abuse Regulation (2014/596/EU) as it forms part of United Kingdom domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 and as modified by or under the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 or other domestic law, provides further detail.

Update on Admission and dealings

The Open Offer Shares will, when issued, be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with each other and with the Existing Ordinary Shares, including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid after the date of Admission. Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the Open Offer Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). As an update to the Company's announcement on 8 May 2026 at 7.00 a.m., dealings in the Open Offer Shares and Admission are now expected to take place on or around 8.00 a.m. on 14 May 2026.

Total voting rights

In accordance with the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure, Guidance and Transparency Rules, the Company confirms that following Admission, the Company's enlarged issued ordinary share capital will comprise 818,543,681 Ordinary Shares. The Company does not hold any shares in Treasury.  Therefore, from Admission, the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 818,543,681 and this figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations to determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company, under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

Capitalised terms used but not otherwise defined in this announcement bear the meanings ascribed to them in the circular posted to shareholders on 21 April 2026.
