Amigo Holdings PLC

("Amigo" "PLC" or the "Company")

Appointment of Craig Ransley as strategic consultant

Amigo Holdings PLC is pleased to announce that it has appointed Craig
Ransley as a Board Consultant. In this role, Craig will help the Board
explore strategic options for Amigo to remain a listed company, specifically
by identifying and pursuing a reverse takeover in the mining sector.

Shareholders should note that there is no guarantee a reverse takeover (RTO)
will be agreed. If an RTO is agreed, it would be conditional on, inter alia,
Amigo shareholder approval and publication of a prospectus approved by the FCA
and re-admission of the enlarged share capital to the Official List and to
trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange or similar such
requirements for any other listing venue.

Under Craig's consultancy agreement, the Company has agreed that if Craig
successfully introduces to Clear Capital Markets Limited investors that
irrevocably agree to subscribe for a £1.5 million capital raise by the
Company, Amigo will pay Craig a fee of £200,000. Craig has agreed to use the
fee to subscribe for 57,035,296 Amigo new ordinary shares of 0.25p each fully
paid (Fee Shares) at an issue price of 0.3507p per Fee Share, which will
rank pari passu in all respects with the existing issued ordinary shares.
The Fee Shares when issued would represent 10% of Amigo's current issued share
capital. Amigo will in due course make an application for the Fee Shares to be
admitted to the Equity Shares (Commercial Companies) Category of the Official
List and to be admitted to trading on the main market for listed securities of
the London Stock Exchange. A further announcement will be made in due course.

Conditional on the Fee Share issuance completing, the Board expects formally
to appoint Craig as a Director of Amigo, with the title Executive Chair,
subject to satisfactory completion of market and other regulatory checks.
Craig brings nearly 30 years of experience in building mining businesses that
deliver value for investors. More details about his background are provided
below.

Jonathan Roe, Chair of Amigo commented:

"Craig has a strong history of building mining businesses that deliver value
for investors, and we're excited to work with him as we look for a better
outcome for shareholders-one that could help restore some value to them. While
there's no certainty that a deal will happen, we believe Craig's experience
significantly improves our chances of making it possible."

Clear Capital Markets Limited (Clear) has been appointed as broker to
Amigo. Beaumont Cornish continues to be Amigo's Listing Sponsor. Clear will
be paid: £25k on completion of the Company's proposed £1.5m raise; and £75k
(which at Clear's request can be paid in equity at the RTO share price) at
completion of an RTO of Amigo.

APPENDIX

Craig Ransley is an accomplished Australian entrepreneur and executive with
over two decades of experience founding, managing, and scaling businesses
across the mining, labour hire, and industrial services sectors.

Craig's entrepreneurial journey began in 2000 when he founded the TESA Group,
a successful labour hire and services company that he grew and sold to the
Skilled Group. He subsequently entered the resource industry, founding NuCoal
Resources Ltd and overseeing its listing on the Australian Securities Exchange
(ASX). He also co-founded ResCo Services Pty Ltd, where he served as Chairman.

His most extensive involvement is with TerraCom Ltd (ASX: TER), which he
founded in 2009 and served in various roles ranging from Managing Director to
Executive Chairman. Under his leadership, TerraCom extended the operational
life of the flagship Blair Athol Mine in Queensland and achieved significant
reserve expansion.

During his tenure, Craig was instrumental in growing TerraCom into a company
that achieved a market capitalization in excess of one billion AUS dollars.
Craig's governance portfolio is broad, including service as Chairman of
Bluestone Global Ltd, as Chairman of LSE and ASX dual-listed Universal Coal
Plc, and as Executive Chairman of ASX-listed Mayur Resources Ltd, where he
managed coal and renewable energy projects.

With a strong foundation in the mining, natural resources, and energy sectors,
Craig is a proven corporate leader. His deep, practical expertise, combined
with extensive experience in resource development, strategic planning, and
public company governance, positions him to contribute significantly to the
evaluation of potential targets in these sectors.
