Result of Requisitioned General Meeting

Following today's Requisitioned General Meeting ("GM"), convened by the Notice of 8 September 2021, Prospex announces that Shareholders have voted to reject resolutions 1 through 8 proposed as part of a general meeting requisition request received from Jarvis Investment Management Limited and resolutions 9 and 10 were withdrawn.

In addition, Shareholders have voted in favour of resolutions 11 and 12 proposed by the board of directors (the "Board"). Accordingly, Mark Routh and Alasdair Buchanan have been confirmed as Directors and consequently, the Board remains unchanged. Shareholders voted to approve the share authority resolution proposed by the Board (resolution 13) but did not vote by the requisite majority to dis-apply pre-emption rights to the issuance of shares (resolution 14).

The results of the poll for each resolution are set out in the table below.

Commenting on the news Mark Routh, CEO of Prospex Energy said:

"Preparing for this General Meeting has been an unwelcome distraction. On the positive side however, we have grown closer to our shareholder group, many of whom have backed the Company over several years and we thank them for their continued support.

"As a Board we are determined to accelerate our plans to grow Prospex, focussing on development and production gas assets across Europe at a time of unprecedented high gas and electricity prices. We intend to engage with those large shareholders seeking changes in early course with a view to delivering value for all shareholders and to create a more harmonious environment in which the Company can move forward. I will be writing to all shareholders setting out my plans for the future."

As at the date of the General Meeting, the number of issued ordinary shares of the Company was 176,822,479 carrying one vote each. 7,361 shares are held in Treasury. Therefore, the total voting rights in the Company are 176,815,118, which was the total number of shares entitling the holders to attend and vote for or against all resolutions. In accordance with the Company's Articles of Association, on a poll every member has one vote for every share held. Votes withheld are not votes in law and have not been counted in the calculation of the proportion of vote "for" or "against" a resolution. Proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman have been included in the totals above.
