The Board of accesso Technology Group plc (AIM: ACSO), the premier technology solutions provider to leisure, entertainment and cultural markets, is pleased to announce that subsequent to the acquisition of Ingresso Group Limited ("Ingresso"), a Global Distribution System for entertainment ticketing pursuant to the terms of a share sale and purchase agreement entered into on 30 March 2017 (the "Acquisition Agreement") and announced earlier today, it has entered into a subscription agreement with Bart Van Schriek, Chief Executive Officer of Ingresso ("Subscription Agreement").

Under the terms of the Subscription Agreement Mr Van Schriek has agreed to subscribe today for 31,685 new ordinary shares of 1p each in the Company ("the Subscription  Shares") for a total cash payment of £499,989 (representing a price of £15.78 per share). Mr Van Schriek has agreed to a three year restriction on the disposal of such shares, under which he is prohibited from making any disposal for the first 12 months, with one third of the stock being released from the restriction at the end of each 12 month period from today.

Under the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, Mr Van Schriek, along with the other vendors, may become entitled to an earn out payment in 2018, based on the audited financial performance of Ingresso for the year ended 31 December 2017 exceeding its financial performance in 2016. If the earn out payment becomes due, Mr Van Schriek has agreed to apply 40% of his net earn out proceeds in subscribing for further new ordinary shares in the company at £15.78 pence per share.  Such shares will be subject to restrictions on disposal for a period of two years, whereby he is prohibited from making any disposal of two thirds of the stock for the first 12 months with half of such shares being released from the restriction at the end of each 12 month period from the date issued.

Following the issue of the Subscription Shares the Company will have a total of 22,360,480 ordinary shares of 1p each in issue. 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. The Company does not hold any shares in treasury.
