Update on intention to appoint administrators

Further to its announcement on 19 December 2023 of its intention to appoint administrators and the suspension of trading of its shares on AIM (the "Previous Announcement"), AMTE Power Plc (AIM: AMTE), (the "Company") announces that the accelerated sale process, referred to in the Previous Announcement, has elicited interest in the business and assets of the Company.

Accordingly, the Board has today filed a second notice of intention to appoint an administrator with the Court, which the Court has sealed. Accordingly, the Company will be protected from creditor action for a further 10 business day period (until and including 19 January 2024) and intends to use such period to continue to explore the interest elicited by the accelerated sale process and conclude a transaction.

The Company's Ordinary Shares remain suspended from trading on AIM.

WH Ireland Limited ("WH Ireland") will resign as nominated adviser to the Company should these negotiations not succeed and an administrator be appointed. If the Company fails to appoint a replacement nominated adviser within one month of the date that WH Ireland resigns, the admission of the Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM will be cancelled.

Capitalised terms not defined in this announcement shall have the meaning given to them in the Previous Announcement, unless the context otherwise demands.

A further announcement will be made in due course.

The person responsible for arranging the release of this announcement on behalf of the Company is Anita Breslin, Chief Financial Officer of the Company.
