Issue of Equity

Further to the Listing Application announcement on 5 September 2022, Lamprell has allotted and issued 10,621,178 ordinary shares of 5 pence each in the capital of the Company ("New Ordinary Shares") which have been admitted to the Official List and to trading on the London Stock Exchange ("Admission"). The New Ordinary Shares have been used to satisfy awards which have vested under the Company's Performance Share Plan and Retention Share Plan ("Share Plans") in connection with the cash offer from Thunderball Investments Limited (a newly formed company owned by Blofeld Investment Management Limited and AlGihaz Holding Closed Joint-Stock Company). The New Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu with the Company's existing ordinary shares, (together "Shares").
