Company Update

Further to the Company's announcement made on 18 October 2018, Tau announces that it has received expressions of interest from parties who are potentially interested in performing a reverse takeover under AIM Rule 14 with the Company. As a result, the Board has decided to extend the timeline for progressing discussions until 31 January 2019.

It should be noted that discussions with third parties regarding potential transactions are at an early stage and there can be no certainty that any transaction will occur or as to the terms of any such transaction, should a transaction be forthcoming. Accordingly, if none of the potential transactions are successfully concluded, the Board will then consider distributing substantially all of the Company's remaining cash not required to meet operating costs and liabilities and seek a cancellation of the admission to trading of the Company's shares on AIM in accordance with AIM rule 41. This would be followed by the appointment of a liquidator of the Company.

The Company is classified as an AIM Rule 15 cash shell and as such is required to make an acquisition or acquisitions which constitutes a reverse takeover under AIM Rule 14 or be re-admitted to trading on AIM as an investing company under the AIM Rules (which requires the raising of at least £6 million) on or before 18 April 2019, failing which trading in the Company's Ordinary Shares on AIM would be suspended pursuant to AIM Rule 40. Admission to trading on AIM would be cancelled six months after the date of suspension should the reason for the suspension not have been rectified.

Further announcements will be made in due course.
