The Company announces that it received notification on 28 July that Darren Hazelwood, the chief executive officer of the Company, had exercised the conversion rights attaching to the £56,000 of convertible loan notes held by him in respect of principal and accrued interest of £9,520. As a consequence, Mr Hazelwood will be issued with 63,922 new ordinary shares of no par value in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") at a price of £1.025 per Ordinary Share.

Admission

Application will be made to the Financial Conduct Authority for admission of the new Ordinary Shares to the Official List and to the London Stock Exchange (the "LSE") for admission to trading of the new Ordinary Shares on the LSE's Main Market for listed securities (together "Admission"). It is expected that Admission will take place at 8.00 a.m. on 5 August 2024 and that dealings in the new Ordinary Shares on the LSE's Main Market for listed securities will commence at the same time.

Total Voting Rights

Following Admission, the Company's total issued share capital consists of 4,110,147 Ordinary Shares. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury.

Therefore, following Admission, the total number of voting rights in Panther Metals plc is 4,110,147.
