Global Ports Holding PLC
("GPH" or the "Company")
Issue of new Ordinary Shares under the LTIP
GPH today announces the issue of 66,600 new ordinary shares of GBP0.01 each (the "LTIP Shares") in the capital of the
Company at an issue price equal to nominal value (the "Issue Price") under the Company's Long Term Incentive Plan ("
LTIP") (the "LTIP Share Issuance") as previously announced on 14 July 2023.

Applications will be made for the LTIP Shares to be admitted to
the standard listing segment of the Official List of the Financial
Conduct Authority ("FCA") and to trading on the main market for
listed securities of the London Stock Exchange plc. It is expected
that admission of the LTIP Shares ("Admission") will take place at
or around 8.00 a.m. (London time) on or around 23 August 2023 (or
such later date or time as the Company may decide).
Following Admission, the Company will have 68,038,008 ordinary
shares of GBP0.01 each in issue, of which the LTIP Shares will
represent approximately 0.098%. GPH does not hold any ordinary
shares in treasury and therefore the total number of ordinary
shares in the Company with voting rights will be 68,038,008. This
figure may be used by shareholders (and others with notification
obligations) as the denominator for the calculations by which they
will determine whether they are required to notify their interest
in, or a change to their interest in, GPH under the FCA's
Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
