(“Conroy Gold” or the “Company”)

LOAN CONVERSION

On 15 July 2019, the Company announced that it had raised €250,000 through
the issue of an unsecured convertible loan note (the “Convertible Loan
Note”) to Hard Metal Machine Tools Limited (the “Lender”). The
Convertible Loan Note had a term of three years and attracted interest at a
rate of 5% per annum which was to be payable on the redemption or conversion
of the Convertible Loan Note. The Convertible Loan Note, including the total
amount of accrued but unpaid interest, was convertible at a conversion price
(“Conversion Price”) of £0.07. The Lender is a company controlled by Mr
Philip Hannigan, an existing shareholder in the Company.

The Company today announces that it has received notice of conversion (the
“Conversion”) from the Lender in relation to the Convertible Loan Note. At
the Conversion Price, the loan and all accrued interest (£258,534 as at 5th
July 2022) is convertible into 3,693,346 new Ordinary Shares (“Ordinary
Shares”) in the Company.  

Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the 3,693,346 new
Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is expected
that Admission will become effective on, or around, 12 July 2022.

Following the Conversion, Mr Philip Hannigan will have a beneficial interest
in a total of 6,863,486 Ordinary Shares in the Company representing 15.98% of
the issued share capital of the Company on Admission.

The Lender continues to hold €100,000 in unsecured convertible loan notes
that were issued by the Company in October 2019, further details of which can
be found in the announcement released by the Company on 30 October 2019.

Total Voting Rights

Following the Conversion, the issued share capital of the Company will
comprise 42,956,226 ordinary shares of €0.001, with one voting right per
share. The Company does not hold any shares in treasury. Therefore, the total
number of Ordinary Shares and voting rights in the Company will be 42,956,226.

Following the loan conversion, the above 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 to
their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure
Guidance and Transparency Rules.
