Cel AI PLC

("Cel AI" or the "Company")

Subscription to raise £250,000

Cel AI Plc (LSE: CLAI) announces it has raised gross proceeds of £250,000 (before expenses) by way of a direct subscription of 39,062,500 new ordinary shares (the "Subscription Shares"), of 0.1p each in the share capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") at an issue price of 0.64p per Ordinary Share, being the 30 May 2025 closing price (the "Issue Price") by two of the Company's directors, Nicholas Lyth and Matthew Lodge, via their investments vehicles, Dark Peak Services Ltd and Kaikalani Pte Ltd, respectively.

The Subscription Shares, when issued and fully paid, will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing Ordinary Shares in issue and therefore will rank equally for all dividends or other distributions declared, made or paid after the issue of the Subscription Shares.

Use of Proceeds

Net proceeds will be used to fund ongoing operations and initiate the Company's newly approved Bitcoin ("BTC") Treasury Reserve Strategy.

Total Voting Rights:

Application will be made to the Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") for admission of the Subscription Shares to the Equity shares (transition) category of the Official List and to the London Stock Exchange (the "LSE") for admission to trading of the Subscription Shares on the LSE's Main Market for listed securities (together "Admission"). It is expected that Admission will take place at or around 8.00 a.m. on or around 6 June 2025.

Following Admission, the Company confirms that its total issued share capital will consist of 752,423,611 Ordinary Shares, with one voting right per Ordinary Share. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury. This figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company pursuant to the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
