Result of General Meeting
Eruma plc, the AIM traded specialist provider of counter terrorism, intruder prevention products and intelligent lighting, announces that at the General Meeting (‘GM’) held earlier today, all resolutions were duly passed.
The Company has raised £479,000 (before expenses) by issuing 5,322,222 new ordinary shares in the Company at a price of 9 pence per share (‘the Placing’). Following the capital reorganisation and the Placing, the Company’s issued share capital comprises 15,594,786 shares of 1p per share, which will be admitted to AIM on or around 1 September 2010, and 195,178,717 deferred shares, with no effective value, which will not be admitted to AIM.
As a result of the capital reorganisation, the International Securities Identification Number (ISIN) has changed to GB00B57WD717. Further, the Company will be issuing new share certificates to shareholders.
Eruma Chairman David Alexander said, “The uptake of our security and lighting products has been positive since the beginning of the year as we have been successful in building upon our client base having won a number of contracts. Further to the Placing, Eruma is now in a position to fund its working capital requirements in what is an encouraging time for the Company.
“Recent contract wins with Bristol Airport and a five-star luxury hotel in London’s Knightsbridge area, together with counter terrorism contracts in Beirut, Islamabad and Northern Ireland, show the versatility of our products. In this vein, we remain committed to growing our business and advancing our key offering whilst continuing to build a reputation as a leading provider of security and emergency lighting solutions.”

Notes
Incorporated in March 2005 and listed on AIM, Eruma plc operate through two divisions Security Blinds and Illuminex.
Security Blinds is a leading manufacturer of physical security and protection systems in the UK. Servicing both the public and commercial sectors, the patented Secur™ system provides clients with protection against theft and forced entry. The system also gives businesses and institutions the opportunity to take proactive steps to address the modern threat of terrorism; having met stringent testing requirements to win endorsement by the Home Office, Association of Chief Police Officers, leading banks, and local authorities through its ability to protect people, property and equipment from bomb blasts.
Security Blinds also produces the Anti Ram Raid Gate. This gate is installed behind roller shutters to protect against ram raids. Anchored to the inside of the building the retractable barrier resists being rammed by vehicles, including lorries, and will deter roller shutters from being forced open by jacks or breached by angle grinders used by determined thieves.
Illuminex is a supplier and distributor of intelligent lighting systems. Illuminex solid state systems provide superior performance whilst reducing costs to businesses through reductions in energy consumption and maintenance overhead. This drives a significant reduction of an organisation's impact on the environment through reducing an organisation's carbon footprint, which enables them to seek government funding and loans to implement these solutions.
