Result of General Meeting
Proposed acquisition of Fiinu Holdings Limited
The Directors of Immediate Acquisition Plc (AIM: IME) are
pleased to announce that, further to the announcement on 15 June
2022, at a General Meeting ("GM") held earlier today, Resolutions 1
to 4 and Resolution 6 were all duly approved by shareholders by way
of a poll. The Directors decided to withdraw Resolution 5 and it
was not voted on at the Meeting.
Acquisition of Fiinu Holdings Limited
At today's GM, shareholders approved the acquisition of Fiinu
Holdings Limited ("Fiinu Holdings") (the "Acquisition"), a fintech
company and creator of the Plugin Overdraft(R), which is classified
as a reverse takeover under AIM Rule 14. The Acquisition remains
conditional upon Fiinu Holdings' subsidiary, Fiinu 2 Ltd ("Fiinu
2"), receiving confirmation of its Part 4A deposit taking licence
("Banking Licence") from the Prudential Regulation Authority, with
the consent of the Financial Conduct Authority, and completion of
the Acquisition Agreements and Placing Agreement. Further details
are set out in the Company's Admission Document dated 15 June 2022
(the "Admission Document").
Confirmation of the Banking Licence is expected shortly and will
take place prior to Admission, at which time the Acquisition, and
the Placing Agreement, will complete.
As such, it is expected that the readmission of the Enlarged
Issued Ordinary Share Capital to trading on AIM ("Admission") will
take place at 8.00 a.m. on 8 July 2022.
Proposed change of name and TIDM
At today's GM, the Directors decided to withdraw Resolution 5,
which proposed to change the name of the Company from Immediate
Acquisition Plc to Fiinu Group Plc. The Company now plans to change
the name of the Company to "Fiinu Plc" after Admission. This name
change will need to be registered at Companies House before it
becomes effective at the London Stock Exchange.
At Admission, the Company's TIDM will change to "BANK".
The timetable of principal events is set out below.
Unless stated otherwise, defined terms used in this announcement
have the same meaning as given to them in the Admission Document,
which is available to download from the Company's website at
www.imeplc.com .
Further announcements will be made as appropriate.

Information on Immediate Acquisition plc
In May 2022 IME disposed of its main trading subsidiary and
adopted a capital growth strategy through the monetisation of its
remaining investments, and the pursuit of an acquisition of a
company in the technology or fintech sectors.
Information on Fiinu
Fiinu Holdings, founded in 2017, is a technology platform and
provider of consumer banking products.
Fiinu is comprised of two innovative businesses: Fiinu 2, which
is in the final stages of obtaining Part 4A Permission from the UK
regulators and will offer the group's flagship product, the Plugin
Overdraft(R), and Fiinu Ltd, a provider of financial technology and
alternative data solutions.
Fiinu's Plugin Overdraft(R) is an unbundled overdraft solution,
whereby Fiinu can provide its customers with an overdraft facility
without them having to switch their current account with their
present bank, giving customers access to affordable credit.
Importantly, an overdraft does not negatively impact a consumer's
credit score and helps avoid expensive "payday lenders", giving
consumers the opportunity to build their credit rating.
Fiinu Ltd is the group's technology arm which will manage and
develop the group's platform utilising data insights and
analytics.
