Dear Shareholders,

1. Introduction

On behalf of the Company, we are pleased to invite you to the Acquisition EGM which is to be held on 20 August 2024 at 10 a.m. (London time) at the offices of Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP at 2 London Wall, Barbican, London, EC2Y 5AU, England and to provide you with this circular.

Set out on pages 9 to 10 of this document you will find a Notice convening the Acquisition EGM and all the Resolutions to be submitted for shareholder consideration therein. This letter sets out the background to and the reasons for these Resolutions. These should be considered together with the Prospectus and the other documents circulated with the Notice. Shareholders are advised to read all documents carefully. Shareholders should note in particular that the Prospectus contains information which is relevant to the resolutions being considered at the Acquisition EGM and that this circular has not attempted to restate such information.

After careful consideration, the Board considers the Acquisition and the transactions contemplated thereby to be in the best interests of the Company and its stakeholders, including its shareholders, for the reasons set out below.

2. The Acquisition

Background

Concurrent with its initial public offering, the Company adopted an acquisition strategy to evaluate opportunities in the metals and mining sector globally (excluding Russia), with a particular focus on emerging markets. The Acquisition, as proposed here, is the result of an extensive search for potential transactions utilising the global network of the Company's management team. The terms of the Acquisition are the result of significant negotiations among the respective representatives of the Company and Lidya.

On 18 July 2024, the Company announced that it and Lidya had entered into the Acquisition Agreement in connection with the Mine and related documents with certain funding providers. The press release announcing the Acquisition dated 18 July 2024 is available at the Company's website (https://www.acgcorp.co/).

Reasons for the Acquisition

In evaluating the Acquisition, the Board consulted with its legal counsel, financial and accounting advisors and other advisors. The Board considered a number of factors pertaining to the Acquisition as

generally supporting its decision to enter into the Acquisition Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including but not limited to, the following factors and strategic aims:

· Attractive market fundamentals. The Mine's key commodities, copper and zinc, have attractive market fundamentals and a supportive price outlook.

· Long-life, producing asset. The Mine is an existing producing asset with significant growth prospectivity. Significant organic upside potential has been identified to continue to extend the Mine's life and production capacity.

· Strong fit with the Company's leadership and strategy. The Enlarged Group combines the experienced executive leadership of the Company, Lidya's operating expertise and a shared strategic goal. The Enlarged Group will also benefit from a long-term partnership with the highly-experienced Çalık Holding.

· Platform for Company's growth strategy. The Company's vision is to establish itself as an integral part of the western EV value chain, with support from blue-chip partners. The proposed LSE-listed combined business would provide a platform for further value-enhancing acquisitions and allow the Enlarged Group to capitalise on the scarcity value of pureplay electric metals companies on the LSE.

For more information about the business of the Enlarged Group and its strengths and strategies, please see "Part III-Information on the Enlarged Group's Business" in the Prospectus.

Terms of the Acquisition

The Company has agreed to acquire a 100% interest in the issued and to-be-issued share capital of Polimetal, which holds a 100% interest in the Gediktepe Mine. The parties to the Acquisition Agreement have agreed to a consideration for the Acquisition of US$100 million (subject to a working capital adjustment), plus such number of Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company representing 30% of the Enlarged Ordinary Share Capital on Re-Admission. Following completion of the Acquisition, the Company and Polimetal will constitute the Enlarged Group. In addition to the Acquisition Agreement itself, ACG has entered into various other agreements in connection with the Acquisition.

For a full description of the terms of the Acquisition and the various other agreements executed by the Company as part of it, please see "Part II-Terms of the Acquisition" and "Part XV-Additional Information-Material contracts" in the Prospectus. For a full description of the effects that the Acquisition and such other agreements (including certain agreements with fund providers that shall subscribe for Class A Ordinary Shares, like the Funding Partners) shall have on the existing Shareholders and the Existing Class A Shares, please see "Part XI-The Placing, Re-Admission and Dilution" in the Prospectus.

Redemption of Class A Ordinary Shares

In accordance with Article 18 of its Memorandum and Articles of Association currently in effect (the "M&As"), the Company is required to provide its public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Class A Ordinary Shares prior to the completion of the Acquisition at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Escrow Account (as defined in the M&As) held by the Company calculated as of two U.K. trading days prior to the consummation of the Acquisition (including any Overfunding, as defined in the M&As), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares, subject to amongst other things the redemption limitations described in the M&As.

However, as announced on 28 June 2024, the Company already provided its Class A Ordinary Shareholders with the right to redeem their Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with the extension of the deadline by which the Company must complete an acquisition (as such term is defined in the M&As) (the "Extension").

Accordingly, except to the extent amended hereby, redemption rights arising from the Acquisition and those relating to the Extension shall be exercised following the same redemption process and in accordance with the key redemption procedures and conditions previously announced by ACG on 28 June 2024. The deadline in respect of such redemption rights by which Class A Ordinary Shareholders wishing to redeem all or a portion of their depositary interests in Class A Ordinary Shares are required to submit their redemption election electronically through CREST is 1:00 p.m. London time on 21 August 2024. The redemption payment is expected to take place on or around the completion date of the Acquisition. As of the date of this announcement, the total number of Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding is 4,112. The amount on deposit on the Escrow Account as of 31 July 2024 was equal to $124,579.42. In accordance with Article 18 of the M&As, the final redemption price per Class A Ordinary Share will be calculated based on the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Escrow Account as of two U.K. trading days prior to the consummation of the Acquisition and will supersede the redemption price announced on 28 June 2024. Such final redemption price will be announced by ACG in due course and confirmed prior to payment within CREST. For the avoidance of doubt, any holders who have already elected to have their Class A Ordinary Shares redeemed as of the date hereof, or do elect hereafter to submit redemption elections, are eligible to vote at the Acquisition EGM irrespective of whether they vote for or against or abstain from voting on the proposed Acquisition.

Additional information regarding the redemption arrangements can be found in the Prospectus under the heading "Part XIII-Share Capital, Liquidity and Capital Resources and Accounting Policies-Redemption".

3. The Resolutions

In order to effect the Acquisition, the Company is tabling Resolutions relating to the following matters for consideration by its Shareholders:

(i) the Acquisition, as discussed above and presented in detail in the Prospectus, to be approved. To pass such resolution requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes of the Class A Ordinary Shares of Public Shareholders which are present at the Acquisition EGM and vote; and

(ii) a revised Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company, in the form appended to this document as Exhibit B, to be approved. To pass such resolution requires the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the votes of the Shares entitled to vote thereon which are present at the Acquisition EGM and vote. For more information about the restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and a summary of the main changes proposed to the version currently in effect, please see "Part XV-Additional Information-Restated Articles" in the Prospectus.

4. Action to be taken by Shareholders

Form of Proxy

(3) A Form of Proxy for use at the Acquisition EGM by holders of Class B Shares is enclosed with this document for use. The Form of Proxy must be returned to Link Group at PXS1, Central Square, 29 Wellington Street, Leeds, LS1 4DL, England as soon as possible but, in any event, so as to arrive no later than 10 a.m. (London time) on 16 August 2024 or 48 hours before any adjourned meeting.

(4) The completion and return of a Form of Proxy will not preclude you from attending the Acquisition EGM and voting in person should you wish to do so. Unless otherwise indicated on the Form of Proxy, the proxy will vote as they think fit or, at their discretion withhold from voting.

(5) Depositary interest holders who are CREST members may appoint a proxy or proxies through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so for the Meeting (and any adjournment of the Meeting) by using the procedures described in the CREST Manual (available from www.euroclear.com). CREST Personal Members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed a service provider(s), should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s), who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.

(6) In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made by means of CREST to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a "CREST Proxy Instruction") must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear UK & International Limited's specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual. The message must be transmitted so as to be received by the issuer's agent (ID RA10) by 10 a.m. on 15 August 2024. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to mean the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST application host) from which the issuer's agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. After this time, any change of instructions to proxies appointed through CREST should be communicated to the appointee through other means.

(7) CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers should note that Euroclear UK & International Limited does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular message. Normal system timings and limitations will, therefore, apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned to take (or, if the CREST member is a CREST personal member, or sponsored member, or has appointed a voting service provider(s), to procure that his CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) take(s)) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this connection, CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting system providers are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.

8.6. The notice must specify if the Shareholder Meeting is an Annual General Meeting. Any other meeting shall be considered an extraordinary general meeting.

8.7. Notice of a Shareholder Meeting may be given in writing or by electronic means. If notice is sent by electronic means, it shall be deemed to have been given when the communication is electronically transmitted. Notice shall be deemed to have been validly given if notice is published on the Company's website and via a Regulatory News Service (RNS) announcement, regardless of whether any communication is sent to individual Shareholders by any means, and in such case shall be deemed to have been given on the latter of the two to occur.

8.8. The Director convening a Shareholder Meeting may fix as the record date for determining those Shareholders that are entitled to vote at the Shareholder Meeting the date notice is given of the Shareholder Meeting, or such other date as may be specified in the notice, being a date not earlier than the date of the notice.

8.9. A Shareholder Meeting held in contravention of the requirement to give notice is valid if it is so agreed:

(a) in the case of an Annual General Meeting, by all the Shareholders entitled to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting; and

(b) in the case of any other Shareholder Meeting, if a majority in number of the Shareholders holding at least ninety percent (90%) of the total voting rights on all the matters to be considered at the Shareholder Meeting have waived notice of the Shareholder Meeting and, for this purpose, the presence of a Shareholder at the Shareholder Meeting shall constitute waiver in relation to all the Shares which that Shareholder holds.

8.10. The inadvertent failure of a Director who convenes a Shareholder Meeting to give notice of a Shareholder Meeting to a Shareholder or another Director, or the fact that a Shareholder or another Director has not received notice, does not invalidate the Shareholder Meeting.

8.11. A Shareholder may be represented at a Shareholder Meeting by a proxy who may speak and vote on behalf of the Shareholder.

8.12. The instrument appointing a proxy shall be produced at the place designated for the Shareholder Meeting before the time for holding the Shareholder Meeting at which the person named in such instrument proposes to vote.

A quorum may comprise a single Shareholder or proxy and then such person may pass a Resolution of Shareholders and a certificate signed by such person accompanied where such person be a proxy by a copy of the proxy instrument shall constitute a valid Resolution of Shareholders.

8.17. If majority of the Company's Shareholders present at a Shareholder Meeting are represented by a single Co-Sponsor, a meeting will not be considered quorate.

8.18. If within two (2) hours from the time appointed for the Shareholder Meeting a quorum is not present, the Shareholder Meeting, if convened upon the requisition of Shareholders, shall be dissolved; in any other case it shall stand adjourned to the next Business Day in the jurisdiction in which the Shareholder Meeting was to have been held at the same time and place or to such other time and place as the Directors may determine, and if at the adjourned Shareholder Meeting there are present within one (1) hour from the time appointed for the Shareholder Meeting in person or by proxy not less than one third (33.3%) of the votes of the Shares or each class or series of Shares entitled to vote on the matters to be considered by the Shareholder Meeting, those present shall constitute a quorum but otherwise the Shareholder Meeting shall be dissolved.

8.19. At every Shareholder Meeting, the chair of the Board shall preside as chair of the Shareholder Meeting. If there is no chair of the Board or if that chair is not present at the Shareholder Meeting, the Shareholders present shall choose one of their number to be the chair. If the Shareholders are unable to choose a chair for any reason, then the person representing the greatest number of voting Shares present in person or by proxy at the Shareholder Meeting shall preside as chair failing which the oldest individual Shareholder or representative of a Shareholder present shall take the chair.

8.20. The chair may, with the consent of the Shareholder Meeting, adjourn any Shareholder Meeting from time to time, and from place to place, but no business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting other than the business left unfinished at the Shareholder Meeting from which the adjournment took place.

8.21. At any Shareholder Meeting the chair is responsible for deciding in such manner as they consider appropriate whether any resolution proposed has been carried or not and the result of their decision shall be announced to the Shareholder Meeting and recorded in the minutes of the Shareholder Meeting. If the chair has any doubt as to the outcome of the vote on a proposed resolution, they shall cause a poll to be taken of all votes cast upon such resolution. If the chair fails to take a poll then any Shareholder present in person or by proxy who disputes the announcement by the chair of the result of any vote may immediately following such announcement demand that a poll be taken and the chair shall cause a poll to be taken. If a poll is taken at any Shareholder Meeting, the result shall be announced to the Shareholder Meeting and recorded in the minutes of the Shareholder Meeting.

8.22. Subject to the specific provisions contained in this Regulation for the appointment of representatives of persons other than individuals the right of any individual to speak for or represent a Shareholder shall be determined by the law of the jurisdiction where, and by the documents by which, the person is constituted or derives its existence. In case of doubt, the Directors may in good faith seek legal advice from any qualified person and unless and until a court of competent jurisdiction shall otherwise rule, the Directors may rely and act upon such advice without incurring any liability to any Shareholder or the Company.

8.23. Any person other than an individual which is a Shareholder may by resolution of its Directors or other governing body authorise such individual as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any Shareholder Meeting or of any class of Shareholders, and the individual so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same rights on behalf of the Shareholder which they represent as that Shareholder could exercise if it were an individual.

8.24. The chair of any Shareholder Meeting at which a vote is cast by proxy or on behalf of any person other than an individual may call for a notarially certified copy of such proxy or authority which shall be produced within seven (7) days of being so requested or the votes cast by such proxy or on behalf of such person shall be disregarded.

Upon such publication, any Shareholder that has not consented to such written resolutions will be deemed to have been notified of their contents. The consent to any written resolutions may be in the form of counterparts; each counterpart being signed by one (1) or more Shareholders. If the consent is in one (1) or more counterparts, and the counterparts bear different dates, then the resolution shall take effect on the earliest date upon which Shareholders holding a sufficient number of votes of Shares to constitute a Resolution of Shareholders have consented to the resolution by signed counterparts.

(a) is or was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, by reason of the fact that the person is or was a Director; or

19.6. Expenses, including legal fees, incurred by a Director in defending any legal, administrative, or investigative proceedings may be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such proceedings upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Director to repay the amount if it shall ultimately be determined that the Director is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company in accordance with Regulation 19.1.
