("Pensana" or the "Company")

 

Update on GBP 2 million directors loan facility

Issue of Equity and Director Dealings

 

Pensana (PRE.L) announces that further to the GBP 2 million facility made
available to the Company (PRE.L) by two of its directors, as announced on 28
March 2024 (the "Facility"), the Chairman, Mr Paul Atherley, has sold
1,500,000 ordinary shares and will use the proceeds to make GBP 250,000
available to the Company under the Facility as working capital support to the
Company whilst it finalises its main fundraising for the Longonjo project.

 

To avoid incurring interest costs, the Company wishes to settle the ensuing
amount due under the Facility as soon as possible and intends to do so by the
issue to the Chairman of 1,500,000 ordinary shares being equal to the number
sold by the Chairman, at an effective price of 16.666 pence per ordinary share
(the "Repayment Shares").

 

Accordingly, application will be made for the Repayment Shares to be admitted
to the Official List and to trading on the Main Market of the LSE and
Admission is expected to occur on the LSE on or about 08:00 on 26 July 2024
("Admission"). The Repayment Shares will rank pari passu with the existing
Ordinary Shares in issue. Following the issue of the Repayment Shares, the
Chairman's beneficial holding will change to 4.98%.

 

Upon Admission the Company's issued share capital will consist of 290,272,873
Ordinary Shares. No shares are held in treasury. Therefore, the total number
of voting rights of the Company from Admission will be 290,272,873. The above
figure may be used by shareholders 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 Company under the Financial Conduct
Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

 

Following the issue of the Repayment Shares to repay the GBP 250,000 debt due
under the Facility, the balance available under the Facility will reduce to
GBP 1,75 million.
