Action against Honeycomb Holdings Limited and connected entities andindefinite postponement of general meeting

As announced on 1 April 2020, Urban Exposure plc (the "Company") received a purported notice of termination from Honeycomb Holdings Limited ("HHL") of the share purchase agreement (the "SPA") between the Company, HHL and Urban Exposure Amco Limited ("UE Amco") dated 10 March 2020 for the purchase by HHL of the issued share capital of Urban Exposure Lendco Limited ("UE Lendco").

The Company and UE Amco consider that there was no valid basis for the purported termination of the SPA by HHL and that HHL has acted in repudiatory breach of the SPA.

The Company and UE Amco have accepted this repudiatory breach of contract by HHL and accordingly the Company and UE Amco consider themselves discharged from further performance of the SPA.

The sale of UE Lendco by the Company to HHL and the associated sale of UE Amco by the Company to its management team will now not take place. Further, the proposed cancellation of the Company's ordinary shares from trading on AIM and the proposed change of name of the Company will not proceed.

In addition, the general meeting of the Company scheduled to be held on 28 April 2020 at which resolutions relating to the winding up of the Company would have been proposed is postponed indefinitely.

The Company and UE Amco now intend to claim damages against HHL for breach of contract. In addition, the Company and UE Amco intend to seek relief from other entities within or connected to the Pollen Street Capital group, including Honeycomb Investment Trust plc, Shawbrook Bank Limited, Pollen Street Capital Limited and Pollen Street Capital Holdings Limited, for procuring or inducing the breach by HHL of the SPA.

The Company and UE Amco reserve their position to take all other measures against and seek other relief from HHL and its connected entities in respect of HHL's breach of the SPA.
