CleanTech Lithium PLC ("CleanTech" or "CTL" or the "Company")
Notice of General Meeting and Publication of Circular
Further to the announcement of its Fundraising on 4 June 2026 (the "Launch Announcement"), CleanTech Lithium PLC, (AIM: CTL), an exploration and development company advancing sustainable lithium projects in Chile, is pleased to announce that it is today publishing its circular to Shareholders, including a notice of general meeting (the "Circular"). The general meeting will be held at the offices of the Company at de Carteret House, 7 Castle Street, St Helier, Jersey, JE2 3BT on 1 July 2026 at 10.00 a.m. (the "General Meeting").
The detailed reasons for and background to the Resolutions are set out in the Circular. The Circular will shortly be available on the Company's website https://ctlithium.com/investors/circulars-documents/.
Should the Fundraising Resolutions at the General Meeting not be passed, the Conditional Placing, the Subscription and the Retail Offer will not complete, and the Company would only receive the net proceeds of the Firm Placing. Accordingly, the Directors believe that it is critical that Shareholders vote in favour of the Fundraising Resolutions, as the Directors consider the Fundraising to represent the best possible option for Shareholders as a whole in order for the Company to progress its operations as outlined in the Circular.
Words and expressions defined in the Launch Announcement shall have the same meaning in this announcement.
