ANNOUNCEMENT TO BE MADE BY THE AIM APPLICANT PRIOR TO ADMISSION IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 2 OF THE AIM RULES FOR COMPANIES ("AIM RULES")

Plutus Resources plc (to be renamed Plutus PowerGen plc)

COMPANY BUSINESS (INCLUDING MAIN COUNTRY OF OPERATION) OR, IN THE CASE OF AN INVESTING COMPANY, DETAILS OF ITS INVESTING POLICY). IF THE ADMISSION IS SOUGHT AS A RESULT OF A REVERSE TAKE-OVER UNDER RULE 14, THIS SHOULD BE STATED:

Plutus Resources plc ("the Company") has entered into a conditional agreement to acquire the entire issued and to be issued share capital of Plutus Energy Limited ("Plutus Energy") that it does not already own to form the Enlarged Group. The acquisition constitutes a reverse takeover under rule 14 of the AIM Rules for Companies. Plutus Energy is a company that was established in January 2014 for the purpose of generating power from flexible stand-by power generation farms and generating revenues through the sale of this power to large energy supply companies during periods of peak electricity demand or grid instability.

 

Plutus Energy has a management team with expertise in the building and operation of flexible power generation projects, a demonstrable track record of securing EIS funding for the fixed cost element of the construction of diesel generation sites, obtaining planning permission with suitable connectivity to the grid as well as successfully tendering for National Grid contracts for this form of specialised energy sales.

 

The Directors believe that the market opportunity arises from the constraints inherent in the National Grid's electricity transmission network where flexible power generation has an increasing role to play particularly as fossil fuel power stations continue to close and it will be many years before new nuclear power stations will be built in the UK.

 

Whilst Plutus Energy has yet to generate revenues, the business plan of the Enlarged Group assumes that within 12 months from Admission, and subject to securing the necessary funding and planning permissions, it will have secured contracts for construction, on-going tendering and operations & management of short term operating reserve ("STOR") facilities for individually established special purpose vehicles, which will be part owned by the Enlarged Group. In addition, the Enlarged Group intends to enter into service contracts for the tender and operations of STOR capacity for business to business energy efficiency companies.

 

Plutus Energy has entered into a STOR framework agreement with National Grid Electricity Transmission plc and has successfully tendered for a total of 30MW of STOR capacity across two sites (subject to certain terms and conditions). The initial focus of the Enlarged Group following admission will be to establish STOR facilities to supply back-up power to National Grid pursuant to these successful tenders and to pursue other such agreements with UK utility companies.

 

The main country of operation of the Enlarged Group is the UK.
