Advance Energy plc
("Advance Energy" or the "Company")
Confirmation of Director Fundraise Participation to raise £80,000
Further to the announcement made earlier this morning, concerning the Placing
and Intended Director Participation, the Company can confirm that certain
directors of Advance ("Directors") have subscribed for 94,117,646 new Ordinary
Shares at the Issue Price and 94,117,646 Warrants as set out below (the
"Director Participation").
Defined terms are as set out in this morning's announcement unless otherwise
defined.
Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the 94,117,646 new
Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is
expected that Admission will become effective and that dealings in respect of
the Director Participation Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m. on 29 July
2022. Following Admission, there will be 1,527,613,961 Ordinary Shares in
issue.
The following Directors have subscribed for Director Participation Shares
pursuant to the Director Participation for an investment, in aggregate, of
approximately £80,000. Their subscription for new Ordinary Shares and
Warrants is on the same terms and conditions as the Placing.

Participation Participation
Mark Rollins 47,058,823 76,461,976 5.01% 47,058,823
Larry Bottomley 47,058,823 47,058,824 3.08% 47,058,823
The Director Participation by certain directors of Advance, as set out above,
constitutes a related party transaction under AIM Rule 13. The directors
deemed to be independent of the Director Participation, being Ross Warner and
Stephen Whyte, having consulted with Strand Hanson Limited, the Company's
Nominated Adviser, consider the terms of the Director Participation to be fair
and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.
The Director Participation Shares have been subscribed for directly with the
Company (as to 47,058,823 Ordinary Shares) or through the Placing (as to
47,058,823 Ordinary Shares), subject only to Admission. On Admission, the
Company will have 1,527,613,961 Ordinary Shares in issue. The Company holds no
shares in treasury. Accordingly, the figure of 1,527,613,961 can 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 a change to
their interest in, the Company, under the Financial Conduct Authority's
Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
