DISCLOSURE UNDER RULE 2.10(c) OF THE CITY CODE ON TAKEOVERS AND MERGERS (THE "CODE")

NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY IN, INTO OR FROM ANY JURISDICTION WHERE TO DO SO WOULD CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF THE RELEVANT LAWS OR REGULATIONS OF SUCH JURISDICTION.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Good Energy Group PLC

("Good Energy" or the "Company")

 

Disclosure under Rule 2.10(c) of the Code

 

On 27 January 2025, the boards of Directors of Esyasoft Investment Holdings RSC Limited ("Esyasoft") and Good Energy Group plc ("Good Energy" or the "Company") announced that they had reached agreement on the terms of a recommended cash offer pursuant to which Esyasoft will acquire the entire issued and to be issued ordinary share capital of Good Energy (the "Acquisition") to be effected by means of a Court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement under Part 26 of the Companies Act (the "Scheme") (the "Rule 2.7 Announcement").

Capitalised terms used in this announcement, unless otherwise defined, shall have the meanings given to them in the Rule 2.7 Announcement.

As set out in the Rule 2.7 Announcement, Esyasoft disclosed that it had received an irrevocable from Rupert Sanderson, a Director of Good Energy, to vote in favour of the Scheme at the Court Meeting and in favour of the Resolution to be proposed at the General Meeting in respect of 35,382 Good Energy Shares, representing approximately 0.19 per cent. of the issued share capital of Good Energy as at the Latest Practicable Date (the "Irrevocable").

It has come to the Company's attention that the number of Good Energy Shares stated in the Irrevocable was incorrect, and it should instead have stated a total of 29,593 Good Energy Shares, representing approximately 0.16 per cent. of the issued share capital of Good Energy as at the Latest Practicable Date. The Irrevocable has today been amended to correct this error.

Therefore, the total number of Good Energy Shares which are subject to irrevocable undertakings is 5,581,379, representing approximately 30.16 per cent. of the issued ordinary share capital of Good Energy as at close of business on 7 February 2025 (being the last business day prior to the date of this announcement).
