Update on the Group's Chapter 11 process (the "Chapter 11 Process")

 

Bens Creek Group plc (AIM:BEN), the owner of a metallurgical coal mine in
North America supplying the steel industry, announces that the preliminary
court hearing, scheduled to be held in West Virginia yesterday to consider,
inter alia, the term sheet for a $14.5 million debtor-in-possession financing
facility from Avani Resources Pte Ltd, was adjourned until 8 May 2024 at the
request of the Company's US legal counsel.

 

The request was as a result of the court receiving a second
debtor-in-possession finance offer. The adjournment will allow the court time
to consider both debtor-in-possession financing proposals.

 

Further announcements will be made by the Company as appropriate.
