Proof 5: 9.8.22

THIS DOCUMENT IS IMPORTANT AND REQUIRES YOUR IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. If you are in any doubt about the contents of this document or as to what action you should take, you are recommended immediately to seek your own financial advice from your stockbroker, bank manager, solicitor, accountant or other independent adviser who specialises in advising on the acquisition of shares and other securities and is authorised under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (as amended) ("FSMA") if you are resident in the UK, or, if you are not resident in the UK, from another authorised independent adviser. The whole of this document should be read. Your attention is drawn in particular to the section entitled Risk Factors in Part 4 of this document that describes certain risks associated with an investment in the Company.

This document constitutes an admission document drawn up in accordance with the AIM Rules. This document does not constitute a prospectus within the meaning of section 85 of FSMA and has not been drawn up in accordance with the UK Prospectus Regulation or approved or filed with the FCA. If you are in any doubt about the contents of this document you should consult your stockbroker, bank manager, solicitor, accountant or other financial adviser. The Directors, whose names appear on page 18 of this document, accept responsibility, individually and collectively, for the information contained in this document and compliance with the AIM Rules. To the best of the knowledge and belief of the Directors (who have taken all reasonable care to ensure that such is the case) the information contained in this document is in accordance with the facts and does not omit anything likely to affect the import of such information. No representation or warranty, express or implied, is made by Peel Hunt as to any of the contents of this document for which the Directors are solely responsible.

The Ordinary Shares are admitted to trading on AIM. Application will be made for the Ordinary Shares to be re-admitted to trading on AIM following completion of the Sonangol Acquisitions. All the Ordinary Shares will, on Admission, rank in full for all dividends or other distributions declared, made or paid in respect of the Ordinary Shares after Admission and will rank pari passu in all respects. The Ordinary Shares are not, and the Ordinary Shares of the Enlarged Group will not be, dealt on any other recognised investment exchange and no application has been or is being made for the Enlarged Group to be admitted to any such exchange. Following completion of the Sonangol Acquisitions, it is expected that Admission will become effective and dealings in the Enlarged Group will commence on AIM by Q4 2022.

AIM is a market designed primarily for emerging or smaller companies to which a higher investment risk tends to be attached than to larger or more established companies. AIM securities are not admitted to the official list of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority. A prospective investor should be aware of the risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after careful consideration and, if appropriate, consultation with an independent financial adviser. Each AIM company is required pursuant to the AIM Rules for Companies to have a nominated adviser. The nominated adviser is required to make a declaration to the London Stock Exchange on admission in the form set out in Schedule Two to the AIM Rules for Nominated Advisers. The London Stock Exchange has not itself examined or approved the contents of this document. You should read the whole text of this document. You should be aware that an investment in the Company is speculative and involves a degree of risk. Your attention is drawn to the section entitled "Risk Factors" set out in Part 4 of this document. All statements regarding the Group's business should be viewed in light of these risk factors.
