Result of General Meeting
Following today's General Meeting ("GM"), convened by the Notice
of a GM dated 23 July 2021, Block is pleased to announce that both
resolutions proposed by Forest Nominees Limited (on behalf of G.P.
(Jersey) Limited) and set out in the Notice of a GM were rejected
by shareholders.
The results of the poll for each resolution were as follows:
Resolution For % For Against % Against
1. THAT Philip Dimmock be
removed from office as director
of the Company with immediate
effect. 140,566,909 36.84% 240,980,994 63.16%

2. THAT Charles Valceschini
be appointed as non-executive
Chairman of the Company with

------------ ------- ------------ ----------
As at the date of the GM, the number of issued ordinary shares
of the Company was 625,979,318 shares, which was the total number
of shares entitling the holders to attend and vote for or against
all resolutions. In accordance with the Company's Articles of
Association, on a poll every member has one vote for every share
held. Votes withheld are not votes in law and have not been counted
in the calculation of the proportion of vote "for" or "against" a
resolution. Proxy appointments which gave discretion to the
Chairman have been included in the "against" total.
The poll was conducted by the Company's registrar and the
Company appointed Neville Registrars Limited to act as independent
assessor to report that:
a) the procedures adopted in connection with the poll or polls were adequate;
b) the votes cast (including proxy votes) were fairly and accurately recorded and counted;
c) the validity of members' appointments of proxies was fairly assessed;
d) the notice of the meeting complied with section 325 (notice
of meeting to contain statement of rights to appoint proxy);
and
e) section 326 (company-sponsored invitations to appoint
proxies) was complied with in relation to the meeting.
The Board is pleased with the overall level of support it has
received in relation to the resolutions put to the meeting. It
acknowledges, however, the significant vote for the resolutions,
and commits to continue to engage with all shareholders to
understand their views and/or any specific concerns.

Notes to editors
Block Energy plc is an AIM-listed independent oil and gas
company focused on production and development in Georgia, applying
innovative technology to realise the full potential of previously
discovered fields.
Block has a 100% working interest in Georgian onshore licence
blocks IX and XI(B) . Licence block XI(B) is Georgia's most
productive block, with 2P oil and gas reserves of 64 MMboe, which
is comprised 2P oil reserves of 36 MMbbls and 2P gas reserves of 28
MMboe (Source: CPR Bayphase Limited: 1 July 2015) and historic
production of over 180 MMbbls of oil from the Middle Eocene,
peaking in the mid-1980s at 67,000 bopd.
The Company has a 100% working interest in the highly
prospective West Rustavi onshore oil and gas field with multiple
wells that have tested oil and gas from a range of geological
horizons. The field has so far produced 50 Mbbls of light sweet
crude and has 0.9 MMbbls of gross 2P oil reserves in the Middle
Eocene. It also has 38 MMbbls of gross unrisked 2C contingent
resources of oil and 608 Bcf of gross unrisked 2C contingent
resources of gas in the Middle, Upper and Lower Eocene formations
(Source: CPR Gustavson Associates: 1 January 2018).
Block also holds 100% and 90% working interests respectively in
the onshore oil producing Norio and Satskhenisi fields.
The Company offers a clear entry point for investors to gain
exposure to Georgia's growing economy and the strong regional
demand for oil and gas.
