Qatar Project Update

reset and investment in our new business model is producing successful results
that are starting to come to fruition. Building on current sales and projects
we have good and complementary technologies that the Company intends to bring
into the wider and large potential market. We believe 2025 will be an exciting
and groundbreaking year for the Company. We intend to position ourselves for
growth and ensure that we can successfully exploit the wide ranging
opportunities available to us.
The Company has agreed with Avanceon, its main contractor partner in Qatar,
that supply of the remaining of associated supplies for the Continuous Toxic
Measuring equipment will be delivered in December 2024 for final commissioning
of the project as planned. Accordingly it has been agreed that the entire
first tranche invoice of Eur228k will now be paid by Avanceon to the Company
in December 2024. After final commissioning of the project the Company expects
to discuss the potential of additional related equipment and supplies with
Avanceon for wider application throughout Qatar.

name to Metir plc passed its shareholder vote. The Company has applied to
Companies House with regards to the name change and, in addition, the Company
