Pursuant to the Placing and Subscription announced on 11 April 2025, the Company has issued 500,000,000 New Ordinary Shares at the Placing Price.
In addition, as announced on 11 April 2025, accrued director fees of £45,000 have been settled through the issue of 30,000,000 new ordinary shares at the Placing Price as detailed in the table below ("Director Settlement"):

Furthermore, the Company has also issued 25,600,000 New Ordinary Shares at the Placing Price to settle creditor liabilities of £38,400 ("Creditor Shares"). 16,000,000 of the Creditor Shares have been issued to Sanderson Capital Partners Ltd ("Sanderson Capital Partners") for consultancy and business development services in relation to the proposed Alludium investment announced 11 April 2025.
