Closure of Litigation

Dublin-Ireland, 13 October 2022: Malin Corporation plc (Euronext Growth Dublin:MLC) ("Malin", the "Company"), a company investing in highly innovative life sciences companies, gives this update in relation to outstanding litigation.

The Company announced on 13 October 2021 that Irish High Court proceedings had been initiated by the holders of 2,803,801 A Ordinary Shares in the Company ("the Founders") against the Company claiming an entitlement to the conversion of their A Ordinary Shares into Ordinary Shares.

As previously announced, the Company rejected the conversion notices previously submitted to the Company by the Founders, on the basis that no change of control had occurred and the conversion rights carried by A Ordinary Shares were not exercisable.

On 17 August 2022 the Company confirmed that one of the Founders, Crow Rock Capital Limited, the holder of 787,032 A Ordinary Shares, had withdrawn its claim against Malin in those proceedings and surrendered its A Ordinary Shares to the Company.

The Company now confirms that the Company and the remaining Founders have compromised the proceedings, which will be struck out with no order as to costs. The remaining Founders will surrender all of their A Ordinary Shares to the Company, for nil consideration.

On 20 June 2022, the Company announced that defamation proceedings were issued on behalf of Kelly Martin and Sean Murphy against the Company, the Company's Chair, Liam Daniel and the Company's CEO, Darragh Lyons. The Company now confirms that Kelly Martin and Sean Murphy have agreed to discontinue those proceedings.

In consideration of the above agreements, which are in the interests of the Company's shareholders, the Company has agreed to make a EUR1m contribution towards the remaining Founders' costs.
