Results of AGM and Repositioning
Kibo Mining PLC (AIM: KIBO; AltX:KBO), the multi-asset, Africa-focused, energy company, is pleased to
announce that all resolutions were duly passed at its Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) held today. The AGM
was attended in person and by proxy by shareholders holding approximately 38% of the shares in Kibo
(624,792,973 shares issued and outstanding at the time of the AGM).
Included amongst the passed resolutions (specifically Resolution 8 - see Table below), the Company is
pleased to announce that the change of name to Kibo Energy Public Limited Company (“Kibo Energy PLC”
or “Kibo Energy”) has been approved by shareholders and will become effective upon receipt of confirmation
of name change from the Registrar of Companies (“Receipt”). Trading in the Company’s shares under the
new name is anticipated to take effect from the day following Receipt, with both to be announced in due

Notes to editors
Kibo Mining PLC is a multi-asset, Africa focussed, energy company positioned to address the acute power
deficit, which is one of the primary impediments to economic development in Sub-Saharan Africa. To this end,
it is the Company’s objective to become a leading independent power producer in the region.
Kibo is simultaneously developing three similar coal-fuelled power projects: the Mbeya Coal to Power Project
(‘MCPP’) in Tanzania; the Mabesekwa Coal Independent Power Project (‘MCIPP’) in Botswana; and the
Benga Independent Power Project (‘BIPP’) in Mozambique. By developing these projects in parallel, the
Company intends to leverage considerable economies of scale and timing in respect of strategic partnerships,
procurement, equipment, human capital, execution capability / capacity and project finance. Additionally, the
Company will benefit from its robust and experienced international blue-chip partnership network across its
project portfolio, which includes: SEPCO III (China), General Electric (USA); Tractebel Engineering
(Belgium); Minxcon Consulting (South Africa); ABSA / Barclays Africa); and Hogan Lovells International
LLP.
