Appointment of Dr Arthur Laffer

Further to the announcement of 3 July 2025, Hamak Gold plc (LSE: HAMA) is
extremely pleased to announce the formation of an Advisory Board. The purpose
of this Advisory Board is to play a significant consultative role, offering
strategic guidance and sector expertise to the Board of Directors as the
Company expands into emerging sectors, including data security, decentralised
technologies, and digital assets.

The founding member of the Advisory Board is Dr. Arthur B. Laffer, an
internationally renowned American economist, best known as the creator of the
"Laffer Curve" and for his influential role in shaping U.S. fiscal policy
during both terms of the Reagan administration. He served as an economic
advisor to Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign and, in recognition of
his contributions to economics, was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom
by President Trump in 2019.

Named one of Time Magazine's Greatest Minds of the 20th Century, Dr. Laffer
has advised numerous governments and institutions globally on matters of tax
policy, economic growth, and monetary reform. He is an advisor to ARK
Investment Management LLC ("ARK"), the U$20bn US investment manager, and is a
former professor and long-term confidant and mentor of Cathie Wood, founder
and CEO of ARK.

Dr. Laffer brings extensive insight into macroeconomic strategy and the
growing adoption of digital assets. A strong advocate for Bitcoin and
decentralised monetary systems, his appointment reflects Hamak Gold's
commitment to engaging with forward-thinking economic and policy frameworks
that promote innovation and value creation.

Dr. Laffer, commented:

"I am extremely excited by the direction Hamak Gold is heading, and I'm proud
to have been invited to join the Company's first-rate team and to be actively
involved in helping facilitate Hamak's growth in any way that I can."

Nick Thurlow, Chairman of Hamak Gold Ltd, added:

"We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Laffer as the founding member of Hamak's
Advisory Board. As a world-renowned economist, he brings a vast array of
experience to the role and will be a valuable sounding board as we develop our
treasury strategy moving forward.

"We plan to begin with a minimum of three Advisory Board members, and further
announcements can be expected soon."

As part of its commitment to transparency and shareholder engagement, the
Company will issue regular RNS updates in the coming weeks regarding further
appointments and its planned Bitcoin treasury purchases. A shareholder call is
also being arranged for early September to present a detailed strategic
roadmap, including the formalisation of Hamak's Bitcoin Treasury Policy and
medium-term plans to differentiate the Company within the digital asset space.
Details of this call will be announced in due course.
