is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Peter Oldacre as the new Group Business Development
Executive for the Kibo Energy PLC Group of companies (‘KEGC’ or the ‘Group’).

Mr. Oldacre’s impressive credentials distinguishes him as an experienced renewable energy and
energy-storage project developer with deep technical, financial and commercial experience that has
seen him advise, guide, develop, acquire and revitalise businesses within the energy, renewables,
strategic minerals, investments and global corporate markets. Mr. Oldacre will also add to the already
well-developed skill set of Kibo with his experience in and exposure to, investment and equity
sourcing, international project finance and specialised blended financing, amongst others as per his
summarised curriculum vitae below.

The addition of Mr. Oldacre to the Executive Committee (‘EXCO’) of Kibo aligns with the
Company’s strategic intent to develop, own and operate clean/renewable energy solutions. As a
member of EXCO, Mr. Oldacre will be responsible for the development, management and execution
of appropriate plans to implement the Company’s business development strategy, with specific focus
on the successful completion of the crucial project development phase in the project development
cycle that commences at the completion of a bankable feasibility study through financial close up to
completion of construction.

Louis Coetzee, CEO of Kibo Energy, says: “We are extremely pleased to welcome Peter Oldacre
to the Kibo Energy team. His wealth of knowledge and expertise in renewable energy and energy
storage will further strengthen the Group’s business strategy and aligns with our commitment to
advancing clean/renewable energy generation and storage. The appointment of Mr. Oldacre further
demonstrates Kibo’s commitment to deliver a portfolio of operational revenue-generating projects
within the next 18 to 24 months as previously announced.

Almost all the projects in the Company’s project portfolio currently find themselves in the specific
development phase referred to above. Peter’s ability to join the dots across complex deal-making
mandates between investors, project developers, asset owners and funders with significant
performance success over the last decade will add significant strategic capacity and momentum
towards the successful delivery of the Kibo projects portfolio.

“We look forward to working with Mr. Oldacre as a Group Business Development Executive at
Kibo.”
