The Directors of Minoan are pleased to announce the agreement to place and to subscribe for ordinary shares of 1p each ("Ordinary Shares") which was successfully arranged by Peterhouse Capital Limited (the "Placing"). 36,000,000 Ordinary Shares are to be issued at 1p per Ordinary Share raising £360,000. Three of the Group's Directors, being George Mergos, Nick Day, and Marco Nijhof are each subscribing for 5,000,000 Ordinary Shares at 1p per Ordinary Share.  In addition, a further 9,000,000 Ordinary Shares are being issued at 1p per Ordinary Share in order to settle liabilities.

The placing price represents a discount of approximately 3 per cent. to the Closing Price of 1.03 pence per Ordinary Share on 21 October 2022, being the latest practicable business day prior to the publication of this Announcement.

Application has been made for a total of 45 million new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission") and it is expected that Admission will be effective from 28 October 2022. The Ordinary Shares are being issued under the authorities in existence at the close of Minoan's last Annual General Meeting held on 29 April 2022. Following Admission, there will be a total of 732,517,005 Ordinary Shares in issue.
