3. Passed as a special resolution.
Accordingly, the 8,909,303 Tranche 2 Placing Shares have now been allotted and issued subject only to Admission of such Tranche 2 Placing Shares. Applications have been made to the Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA") and London Stock Exchange plc (the "LSE") respectively for the Tranche 2 Placing Shares to be admitted to the Equity Shares (Commercial Companies) category of the Official List of the FCA and to trading on the main market for listed securities of the LSE (together, "Admission"). It is expected that Admission will become effective at 8.00 a.m. on 15 December 2025.
Total Voting Rights
Following Admission of the Tranche 2 Placing Shares, which is expected to occur on 15 December 2025, the Company's issued share capital will comprise 225,303,781 Common Shares of US$0.0001 each. The Company does not hold any Common Shares in treasury. Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company will, following such Admission, be 225,303,781. From such Admission, 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 change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
Capitalised terms not otherwise defined in the text of this Announcement have the meanings given in the Company's announcement dated 24 November 2025.
