Scancell Holdings plc (LSE:AIM SCLP) ("Scancell" or the "Company"), the developer of novel immunotherapies for the treatment of cancer, is pleased to announce the successful completion of the Firm Placing announced earlier today.

The Company has conditionally raised, in aggregate, £3.4 million (before expenses) by way of the placing of 20,000,000 new ordinary shares at the placing price of 17 pence per share. The Placing Price represents a
discount of 16 per cent. to the mid-market closing price on 8 March 2016, being the last practicable date prior to the date of this announcement.
The new ordinary shares will be issued credited as fully paid and will be identical to, and rank pari passu in all respects with, the Existing Ordinary Shares following the date of Admission.

A circular to shareholders, including further details of the Open Offer will be despatched to shareholders on or around 11 March 2016 and will also be available on the Company's website, www.scancell.co.uk., at this
time.

Director Dealings
All of the Directors of the Company have participated in the Firm Placing, as set out in the table below:

# In the table above, the number of Ordinary Shares held by two of the Directors includes their interests in joint ownership shares. Professor Lindy Durrant has an interest in 8,873,960 joint ownership shares and Dr. Richard Goodfellow in 6,443,840 joint ownership shares.

* These numbers and percentages are calculated assuming that the Firm Placing completes and the Offer Shares are fully taken up by Shareholders other than the Directors and that none of the outstanding share options are exercised. It is possible that Directors will take up some or all of their basic and excess entitlements pursuant to the Open Offer and, if this occurs, the Company will make an announcement via a Regulatory Information Service at the appropriate time.

All defined terms used in this announcement are defined, unless otherwise defined here, in the appendix to the Proposed Placing and Open Offer announcement made earlier today.
