Director Shareholdings, and Total Voting Rights

Further to the announcement made earlier today, the Placing has now closed and subject to completion, an aggregate 22,883,333 ordinary shares have been sold at the Placing Price of 18 pence per share. Of these shares, 13,374,299 are Ordinary Shares sold by employees, including certain Directors, issued pursuant to the exercise of the Options, and the remaining 9,509,034 shares have been sold by other shareholders in the Company.

Pursuant to the exercise of the Options, the Company has issued and allotted 10,041,457 new Ordinary Shares under the Company's existing unapproved share option plan and CSOP. A further 3,332,842 new Ordinary Shares will be issued and allotted on the completion of the exercise of the options under the Company's EMI share option plan.

Application has been made for 10,041,457 new Ordinary Shares (the "New Shares") to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"), which is expected to occur on or around 30 September 2021. On completion of the exercise of the options under the Company's EMI share option plan, a further application will be made for 3,332,842 new Ordinary Shares (the "Further New Shares") to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Further Admission") which is expected on or around 11 October 2021.

Following the completion of the Placing, the Directors will have an interest in a combined 229,642,939 Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 36.2 per cent. of the enlarged issued share capital following Admission. Detail on individual Director's positions following the Placing can be found in the table below.

It is expected the trade date for the Placing will be today, 24^th September 2021. 12,747,769 Placing Shares will be settled on a T+5 basis and 10,135,564 Placing Shares will be settled on a T+12 basis.

Save as otherwise defined, capitalised terms used in this announcement have the meanings given to them in the announcement released by the Company at 3:00pm 24 September 2021.

Total Voting Rights

Following Admission of the exercised options by the selling Directors, the total number of Ordinary Shares in issue will be 630,528,425. As no shares are currently held in the treasury, total number of voting rights will therefore be 630,528,425. 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 share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules. A revised Total Voting Rights will be provided when the application for the Further Admission has been made.

Notes for editors

Information on The Fulham Shore PLC

Fulham Shore owns and operates "The Real Greek" (   www.therealgreek.com  ) and "Franco Manca" (   www.francomanca.co.uk  ) restaurants.

Fulham Shore was incorporated in March 2012. The Directors believed that there were attractive investment opportunities within the restaurant sector in the UK and that, given their collective experience in the restaurant sector, they could take advantage of the opportunities which existed.

The ordinary shares of the Company were admitted to trading on AIM in October 2014 in order to capitalise on such opportunities and to give the company employees, customers and public the ability to share in the enterprise.

The Real Greek

Since its foundation in London in 1999, The Real Greek group has grown steadily, now offering modern Greek cuisine in 20 restaurants across London and Southern England.

The Real Greek food centres on the delicious, healthy diet of the Eastern Mediterranean, staying true to the Greek ethos of food, family and friends. Dishes are created using premium ingredients sourced from Greece and Cyprus whenever possible, and developed by Tonia Buxton, the face of Greek food in the UK.

The Real Greek's menu and atmosphere retain the spirit of eating in Greece, encouraging diners to take their time eating amongst friends and family, be it a relaxed dinner, family get-together, or a fully catered party.

Franco Manca

Franco Manca opened its first restaurant in 2008 and now has 55 restaurants, primarily in London, but also with restaurants across the UK (e.g. Edinburgh, Glasgow, Manchester, Leeds, Cambridge, Bath, Oxford, Bristol and Exeter).

Franco Manca's pizza is made from slow-rising sourdough and is baked in an oven that produces high heat. The slow levitation and blast cooking process lock in the flour's natural aroma and moisture, giving a soft and easily digestible crust. Where possible, locally sourced and organic ingredients are used.

Franco Manca has received the following accolades:

Winner of the Casual Dining Best Family Dining Experience Award 2020

Winner of the R200 Best Value Restaurant Operator- Over 20 Sites Award 2019 and 2017
