   Cambridge, UK and Indianapolis, US -- 23 February 2021, 08:00 CET: 
Acacia Pharma Group plc ("Acacia Pharma" or the "Company") (EURONEXT: 
ACPH), a commercial stage biopharmaceutical company focused on 
developing and commercializing novel products to improve the care of 
patients undergoing serious medical treatments such as surgery, invasive 
procedures, or chemotherapy, announces that, further to the 
announcements on 18 February 2021 and 19 February 2021 regarding a 
placing of new ordinary shares in the Company (the "New Ordinary 
Shares") by means of an accelerated bookbuild offering (the "Placing"), 
10,000,000 New Ordinary Shares have been issued and admitted to trading 
on the regulated market of Euronext Brussels. 
 
   The New Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the Placing have the same 
rights and benefits as, and rank pari passu in all respects with, the 
existing Ordinary Shares. 
 
   Following issuance of the New Ordinary Shares, as per 23 February 2021, 
the Company's total issued share capital amounts to GBP1,993,789.02, 
represented by 99,689,451 ordinary shares with one voting right per 
share. The Company does not hold any ordinary shares in treasury and has 
not issued any other voting securities. Therefore, the total number of 
voting rights in the Company is 99,689,451. This number represents the 
denominator for purposes of notifications under transparency 
regulations. 
 
   On the basis of this information, shareholders of the Company can verify 
whether they are above or below one of the thresholds of 5%, 10%, 15%, 
20% and so on, in multiples of five, of the total voting rights, and 
whether there is therefore an obligation to disclose that they have 
reached, exceeded or fallen below any such threshold in accordance with 
the Belgian Transparency Act of 2 May 2007. Notifications of major 
shareholdings must be sent by email to Acacia Pharma, for the attention 
of Ali Elsley at AliElsley@acaciapharma.com, as well as to the Belgian 
Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA), at trp.fin@fsma.be. 
 
   The Company has in total 2,437,960 outstanding options and 2,861,500 
Restricted Stock Units, for the benefit of current and former staff and 
the managers of the group, conferring entitlement to subscribe for a 
maximum total of 5,299,460 new ordinary shares, each conferring one 
voting right.
