Reabold Resources plc

("Reabold" or the "Company")

Heads of Agreement Signed between Gunvor and LNEnergy

Reabold Resources plc, the investing company focussed on developing strategic gas projects for European energy security, is pleased to announce the execution of a non-binding Heads of Agreement ("HoA") between Gunvor International B.V. ("Gunvor") and LNEnergy Limited ("LNEnergy") for the purchase of liquefied natural gas ("LNG") by Gunvor from LNEnergy from the Colle Santo gas field, located onshore Italy. LNEnergy has the exclusive right to acquire a 90% interest in Colle Santo and Reabold owns a 26.1% equity interest in LNEnergy.

The HoA provides the terms on which Gunvor will purchase LNG from LNEnergy at its planned small-scale LNG production facility at the Colle Santo gas field. Gunvor will purchase approximately 44,000 tonnes of LNG per annum. The point of sale will be the truck loading flange at the small-scale LNG plant, and the LNG will then be delivered by truck in Italy. The price for the LNG will be aligned with the Italian PSV price. The contract term will be for an indefinite period with a minimum term of five years.

The HoA also provides for a potential prepayment by Gunvor for a portion of the first five years of deliveries, with such amounts subject to prepayment being a total of approximately 66,000 tonnes of LNG, or 999,000 MWh. The average forward Italian PSV gas price for the years 2025-2030 is currently approximately €30 / MWh. The prepayment is conditional on agreeing definitive transaction documentation and LNEnergy obtaining the required permits to construct and operate the LNG production facility.

On the basis of the HoA, LNEnergy and Gunvor intend to negotiate a fully-termed LNG sale and purchase agreement over the next six months. During such time, LNEnergy will exclusively discuss the sale and purchase of LNG from Colle Santo with Gunvor.

Further announcements will be made in due course.

Notes to Editors

Reabold

Reabold Resources plc has a diversified portfolio of exploration, appraisal and development oil & gas projects. Reabold's strategy is to invest in low-risk, near-term projects which it considers to have significant valuation uplift potential, with a clear monetisation plan, where receipt of such proceeds will be returned to shareholders and re-invested into further growth projects. This strategy is illustrated by the recent sale of the undeveloped Victory gas field to Shell, the proceeds of which are being returned to shareholders and re-invested.
