THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTAINS INSIDE INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE MARKET ABUSE REGULATION (EU) 596/2014 (AS AMED) AS IT FORMS PART OF THE DOMESTIC LAW OF THE UNITED KINGDOM BY VIRTUE OF THE EUROPEAN UNION (WITHDRAWAL) ACT 2018 (AS AMED). UPON PUBLICATION OF THIS ANNOUNCMENT, THIS INSIDE INFORMATION IS NOW CONSIDERED TO BE IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN.

Pineapple Power Corporation PLC

GBP350,000 Placing at 3p per share

Pineapple Power Corporation PLC ("PNPL or the Company") is pleased to announce that GBP350,000 of new financing has been secured for the Company by way of a fundraising undertaken by the Company's joint broker Peterhouse Capital Limited ("Peterhouse") at an issue price of 3p per share (the "Placing Price"). Andrew Holland (a director of the Company) and Peter Mills (a former director of the Company) participated in the fundraising.

Background

The Company is currently unable to issue and admit new shares without either the publication of an FCA approved prospectus or relying upon an exemption to the requirement to issue a prospectus. Consequentially, this fundraise involves a combination of a subscription by Claudio Morandi, a director of PNPL, for 10,966,666 new ordinary shares in the Company (the "Director Shares"), at a placing price of 3p each.

Following Admission, Mr Morandi has agreed to sell the 10,966,666 Director Shares, at the same 3p consideration price, to certain investors introduced by Peterhouse and Andrew Holland, a director of the Company. In addition to the above, Peter Mills, a former director, is subscribing for 700,000 new ordinary shares at the Placing Price on his own account.

Peterhouse is acting as placing agent to the Company. The Proceeds of the Placing, less expenses, will be utilised for general working capital requirements and to ensure the Company retains sufficient funds to meet the anticipated costs involved in any future acquisition.

Completion of the Placing is conditional on, inter alia :- the Placing Shares being admitted to listing on the Official List (standard listing segment) and to trading on the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities on or around 23 March 2023.

Applications will be made to the FCA and to the London Stock Exchange for Admission in respect of the Placing Shares proposed to be issued on completion of the Placing. It is expected that Admission will become effective, and that dealings in the Placing Shares are expected to commence, at 8.00 a.m. on 23 March 2023.

The rights attaching to the Placing Shares will be uniform in all respects and all of the new Placing Shares will rank pari passu and form a single class for all purposes with the existing issued shares of GBP0.01 par value in the Company.

Total Voting Rights

Following Admission, the Company has 83,332,877 ordinary shares of GBP0.01 par value in issue, each with one vote per share (and none of which are held in treasury). The total number of voting rights in the Company is therefore 83,332,877. This figure of 83,332,877 may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for calculations to determine if they have a notifiable interest in the share capital of the Company under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules, or if such interest has changed.
