APQ Global Limited, a company incorporated in Guernsey, announces the results
of the extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders (the "Extraordinary
General Meeting") relating to the cancellation of admission of the ordinary
shares of no par value ("Ordinary Shares") to trading on AIM (the
"Cancellation") and the meeting of the holders of 3.5 per cent. convertible
loan stock 2024 (the "CULS") relating to amendments to the trust deed
constituting the CULS to permit the cancellation of the Company's admission to
trading on AIM and to modify the terms of the CULS, each held on 31 March
2025. Details of the proposals were set out in the circular published by the
Company on 6 March 2025 (the "Circular").
Words and expressions defined in the Circular have the same meanings when used

requires.
The Company is pleased to announce that the special resolution proposed at the
Extraordinary General Meeting was passed with 99.9% of votes cast in favour,
and the resolutions at the Meeting of the CULS Holders were both passed, with
100.0% of votes cast in favour.
Cancellation
Following approval by Shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting,
Cancellation is expected to become effective at 7:00 a.m. on 8 April 2025 and,
accordingly, the last day of dealings in Ordinary Shares on AIM is expected to
be 7 April 2025.
Following Cancellation, shareholders in the Company will continue to be able
to effect transactions in the Company's Ordinary Shares on TISE.
Undertakings to CULS Holders
The Company also announces that it has undertaken to CULS holders, by way of
addition and/or modification to the undertakings contained in paragraph 6 of
the Circular, as follows. Additional Interest will be paid quarterly on 31
March, 30 June, 30 September, and 31 December. Monthly updates will be
provided within 10 days of each month-end, covering cash flows, cash position,
working capital, cash movements, and updated inflow forecasts. The Company
will also provide audited annual accounts (31 Dec) and unaudited half-year
accounts (30 June). No Financial Indebtedness ranking above the CULS will be
incurred unless it fully satisfies CULS obligations and Additional Interest.
From 1 April to 30 June 2025, cash reserves above $5 million will be used to
redeem CULS once per month, and from 1 July 2025 to the Deferred Settlement
Date, excess cash above $3 million will be applied similarly. These additional
and/or modified undertakings have effect until the Deferred Settlement Date
and reinforce the Company's commitment to transparency and financial
discipline.
