("Panthera" or the "Company")

 

Issue of Equity - Warrant Conversion and In Lieu of Fees

 

Gold exploration and development company Panthera Resources Plc (AIM: PAT),
with assets in West Africa and India, announces the issue of 881,748 new
ordinary shares of 1p each in the capital of the Company (the "Ordinary
Shares"), at an average issue price of 6.84 pence per new Ordinary Share (the
"Issue Price") to settle certain director and warrant conversion.

 

Director fees

 

The Company has agreed to issue 381,748 new Ordinary Shares in order to
satisfy the Company's non-executive directors' accrued fees for the period
between 1 October 2024 to 31 March 2025 (together the "Fee Shares").

 

The issue of equity in order to satisfy accrued fees has been done in previous
years in relation to the Company's non-executive directors. In this regard,
the issue of the Fee Shares reduces the Company's cash expenditures and
further aligns the interests of the Company's board of directors with the
Company's shareholders. The Fee Shares were priced at the 30-day
volume-weighted average price in the month preceding each respective fee
period. Further details of the Fee Shares are as follows:
