Restrictions on certain corporate rights in Ukrainian subsidiaries

Ferrexpo plc (LSE: FXPO), a premium iron ore pellet producer and supplier to the global steel industry, announces that it has been notified of a court order in the Ukrainian Register of Court Decisions, that imposes restrictions on certain corporate rights in all of the Group's Ukrainian subsidiaries. These restrictions are imposed on 49.5% of the shares in the Group's Ukrainian subsidiaries except for TIS-Ruda LLC and Nova Logistics LLC, where the collective restriction is 24.7% and 25.2% respectively (the "Restrictions").

The Restrictions do not affect ownership of the shares but prohibit their transfer and restrict certain rights attached to the shares, including the right to vote.

The Group confirms that it has no intention, and never has had any intention of transferring shares in its subsidiaries.

It is understood that the Restrictions are part of an ongoing series of legal proceedings against Mr Kostyantin Zhevago relating to Bank Finance & Credit and are not related to the Ferrexpo Group.

The Group is currently analysing the potential legal and other remedies available and intends to vigorously defend its rights.

Ferrexpo's operations remain unaffected. A further announcement will be made as appropriate.

Previously announced share freezes

The Restrictions are separate to those under the share freezes previously announced on 7 March 2023 and on 21 September 2023. Further updates will be made as appropriate.

This announcement contains inside information. The person responsible for the release of this announcement is Mark Gregory, Group Company Secretary.
