("80 Mile", the "Company" or the "Group")

Successful £2m Fundraising

The Company confirms, further to its announcement of 7.00 a.m. GMT on 4 December 2025 (the "Announcement"), that it has successfully closed the Placing.

Result of Placing

Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions referred to below, the Placing Shares and Fee Shares has raised, in aggregate, gross proceeds of £2 million through the issue of 400,000,000 Ordinary Shares. The company has placed 391,600,000 Ordinary Shares (the "Placing Shares") with various new institutional investors as well as existing sophisticated investors at a price of 0.5 pence per share (the "Placing Price") raising £1,958,000. The Company also intends to issue 8,400,000 Ordinary Shares in satisfaction of fees for services provided (the "Fee Shares") totalling £42,000.

The allotment and issue of the Placing Shares is conditional, inter alia, upon:

·       Admission becoming effective by no later than 8.00 a.m. on 12 December 2025 (or such other time and/or date, being no later than 8.00 a.m. on 31 December 2025, as Zeus and the Company may agree);

·       the conditions in the Placing Agreement in respect of the Placing Shares being satisfied or (if applicable) waived; and

·           the Placing Agreement not having been terminated in accordance with its terms prior to Admission.

Accordingly, if any of such conditions are not satisfied or, if applicable, waived, the Placing will not proceed.

Use of Proceeds

 The funds will be used:

·       to progress the development of the Group's assets held by its wholly owned subsidiary Hydrogen Valley Limited; and

·           for general corporate and working capital purposes

Eric Sondergaard, Outgoing Managing Director of 80 Mile, commented:

"I'm pleased to say that the reorganisation of 80 Mile is now complete and the Company is in great shape. With two free carried JVs on our two top tier projects with US partners and the imminent restart of Ferrandina, I can say with certainty the future looks bright. It's been a pleasure running 80 Mile for the last two years, and as a shareholder I look forward with much anticipation to the next two. The Jameson and Disko undrilled orebodies have exciting potential and we will be putting holes into both within the next 12 months. On behalf of the board, I wish all stakeholders the best of luck for 2026 and thank them for their support over the last 12 months."

Admission and Total Voting Rights

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for admission of the 391,600,000 Placing Shares and 8,400,000 Fee Shares to trading on AIM. It is expected that Admission will become effective and dealings in the Placing Shares will commence on AIM at 8.00 a.m. on or around 12 December 2025 (or such later date as may be agreed between the Company and the Bookrunner, but no later than 31 December 2025) (the "Admission").

The Placing Shares and Fee Shares will be issued fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the Company's existing Ordinary Shares.

Following Admission, the total number of Ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company in issue will be 4,967,127,203 with voting rights and there are no treasury shares in issue. This 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 to their interest in, the Company's share capital pursuant to the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

Capitalised terms used but not otherwise defined in this announcement shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in Appendix II of the Announcement, unless the context requires otherwise.
