Dear Shareholder,

Notice of Annual General Meeting

The fourth Annual General Meeting of the Company will be held on Wednesday, 14 September 2022 at 11.00 a.m. at the offices of Augmentum Fintech Management Limited, 5th floor, 4 Chiswell Street EC1Y 4UP. We fully expect that this year's AGM will proceed in the normal physical format this year. Nonetheless, the Board strongly encourages shareholders to register their votes in advance by voting online using the Registrar's portal, www.signalshares.com or, if they are not held directly, by instructing the nominee company through which the shares are held. Registering votes online does not preclude shareholders from physically attending the meeting.

The Directors consider that all the resolutions in the Notice of Annual General Meeting (the "Notice") are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders taken as a whole and therefore unanimously recommend to shareholders that they vote in favour of each resolution, as the directors intend to do in respect of their own holdings. We have not included paper forms of proxy to accompany the Notice. Shareholders can vote online by visiting www.signalshares.com and following instructions. If you require assistance with this or a hard copy form of proxy please contact our registrar, Link Group, whose contact details are set out on page 79 of the Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 (the "Annual Report").

The Notice is set out on pages 2 to 5 of this document. Further details of each of the resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting are set out in the explanatory notes on pages 6 and 7. I also refer you to the Annual Report, which is available on the Company's website www.augmentum.vc.

Yours faithfully

Neil England

Chairman Augmentum Fintech plc

Notes

1. Members are entitled to appoint a proxy to exercise all or any of their rights to attend and to speak and vote on their behalf at the meeting. A shareholder may appoint more than one proxy in relation to the meeting provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares held by that shareholder. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company.

263566 Augmentum Notice of Meeting with new cover.qxp 01/07/2022 16:28 Page 4

1. A vote withheld is not a vote in law, which means that withheld votes will not be counted in the calculation of votes for or against the resolutions. If no voting indication is given, a proxy may vote or abstain from voting at his/her discretion. A proxy may vote (or abstain from voting) as he or she thinks fit in relation to any other matter which is put before the meeting.

A proxy may be appointed by going to www.signalshares.com or by requesting a paper proxy from our registrars, Link Group.

• 1. To be valid any proxy form or other instrument appointing a proxy must be completed and signed and received by post or (during normal business hours only) by hand at Link Group, 10th Floor, Central Square, 29 Wellington Street, Leeds LS1 4DL no later than 11.00 a.m. on Monday, 12 September 2022.
• 1. In the case of a member which is a company, the instrument appointing a proxy must be executed under its seal or signed on its behalf by a duly authorised officer or attorney or other person authorised to sign. Any power of attorney or other authority under which the instrument is signed (or a certified copy of it) must be included with the instrument.
• 1. The return of a completed proxy form, other such instrument or any CREST Proxy Instruction (as described below) will not prevent a shareholder attending the meeting and voting in person if he/she wishes to do so.
• 1. Any person to whom this notice is sent who is a person nominated under section 146 of the Companies Act 2006 to enjoy information rights (a "Nominated Person") may, under an agreement between him/her and the shareholder by whom he/she was nominated, have a right to be appointed (or have someone else appointed) as a proxy for the meeting. If a Nominated Person has no such proxy appointment right or does not wish to exercise it, he/she may, under any such agreement, have a right to give instructions to the shareholder as to the exercise of voting rights.
• 1. The statement of the rights of shareholders in relation to the appointment of proxies in paragraph 1 above does not apply to Nominated Persons. The rights described in that paragraph can only be exercised by shareholders of the Company.
• 1. Pursuant to regulation 41 of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001, only shareholders registered on the register of members of the Company (the "Register of Members") by close of business on Monday, 12 September 2022 (or, in the event of any adjournment, by close of business on the date which is two days before the time of the adjourned meeting) will be entitled to attend and vote or be represented at the meeting in respect of shares registered in their name at that time. Changes to the Register of Members after that time will be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend and vote at the meeting.
• 1. As at 30 June 2022 (being the nearest practical date prior to the publication of this Notice) the Company's issued share capital, excluding shares held in treasury, consists of 179,221,425 ordinary shares, carrying one vote each and therefore, the total voting rights in the Company as at 30 June 2022 are 179,221,425.
• 1. CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so by using the procedures described in the CREST Manual. CREST Personal Members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed a service provider(s), should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s), who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.
• 1. In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made using the CREST service to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a "CREST Proxy Instruction") must be properly authenticated in accordance with the specifications of Euroclear UK and Ireland Limited ("CRESTCo"), and must contain the information required for such instruction, as described in the CREST Manual. The message, regardless of whether it constitutes the appointment of a proxy or is an amendment to the instruction given to a previously appointed proxy must, in order to be valid, be transmitted so as to be received by the issuer's agent (ID RA10) no later than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the meeting. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST Application Host) from which the issuer's agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. After this time any change of instructions to proxies appointed through CREST should be communicated to the appointee through other means.

Notice of the Annual General Meeting continued

1. CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers, should note that CRESTCo does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular message. Normal system timings and limitations will, therefore, apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned to take (or, if the CREST member is a CREST personal member or sponsored member, or has appointed a voting service provider, to procure that his CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) take(s)) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this connection, CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting system providers are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.

263566 Augmentum Notice of Meeting with new cover.qxp 01/07/2022 16:28 Page 5

• 1. In the case of joint holders, where more than one of the joint holders purports to appoint a proxy, only the appointment submitted by the most senior holder will be accepted. Seniority is determined by the order in which the names of the joint holders appear in the Register of Members in respect of the joint holding (the first named being the most senior).
• 1. Members who wish to change their proxy instructions should submit a new proxy appointment using the methods set out above. Note that the cut-off time for receipt of proxy appointments (see above) also applies in relation to amended instructions; any amended proxy appointment received after the relevant cut-off time will be disregarded.

Explanatory Notes to the Resolutions

Resolution 1 – To receive the Annual Report and Financial Statements

263566 Augmentum Notice of Meeting with new cover.qxp 01/07/2022 16:28 Page 6

The Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 will be presented to the AGM. These Financial Statements accompanied this Notice of Meeting and shareholders will be given an opportunity at the meeting to ask questions.

Resolutions 2 to 6 – Election and re-election of Directors

Resolutions 2 to 6 deal with the election and re-election of the Directors. Biographies of each of the Directors can be found on pages 29 and 30 of the Annual Report.

The specific reasons why (in the Board's opinion) each Director's contribution is, and continues to be, important to the Company's long-term sustainable success are as follows:

Neil England

Neil has chaired several public and private companies, including an investment trust. In his leadership of the Board, he draws on his experience of international business and a career spanning companies varying in size from start-ups to global corporations.

Karen Brade

Karen has over 25 years of investment experience across a range of sectors and markets. She has served as a non-executive director of listed venture capital and investment trusts. She has a deep understanding of investment performance, market risk and corporate governance requirements.

David Haysey

David has over 40 years experience in the City, including both public and private company investment. His first-hand knowledge enables the Board to engage authoritatively with the Portfolio Manager on their investment strategy.

Conny Dorrestijn

Conny has been an active and high profile part of the European fintech scene for many years and has worked with a number of early stage fintech businesses.

Sir William Russell

Sir William brings extensive fintech and financial services experience and an understanding of the Company's investor base.

Resolution 7 – Remuneration Report

It is mandatory for listed companies to put their Remuneration Report to an advisory shareholder vote each year. The Directors' Remuneration Report is set out on pages 43 to 45 of the Annual Report.

Resolution 8 – Directors' Remuneration Policy

It is mandatory for listed companies to put the Directors' Remuneration Policy to a binding shareholder vote at least every three years. The last such vote was at the AGM held in 2019. The Directors' Remuneration Policy is set out on pages 46 and 47 of the 2022 annual report. The proposed policy applies specifically to the Directors of the Company and, in substance, is unchanged from that part of the policy approved in 2019 that applied to the Directors. However, as explained in the remuneration report in the annual report, that part of the 2019 policy that related to key personnel of the Portfolio Manager has been excluded from the new policy. In the initial period following the Company's IPO in 2018 it was considered that explicit policy limits on

the remuneration of the management team were necessary to ensure there was capacity to build the team. Given the growth in the Company's asset base and the wider investment team, these are no longer required. The remuneration of AFML KMP staff will remain subject to the more practical imperative that their aggregate remuneration does not exceed the amount available from the portfolio management fee after the subsidiary's other operating costs are met. This approach will also increase the flexibility available to AFML to adapt remuneration in order to attract and retain high calibre staff in the prevailing venture capital environment. There is no change to the portfolio management fee payable and the Management Engagement and Remuneration Committee will retain oversight of AFML remuneration.

Resolution 9 and 10 – Re-appointment of auditors

Resolution 9 relates to the appointment of BDO LLP as the Company's independent auditor to hold office until the next Annual General Meeting of the Company and also authorises the Audit Committee to set the auditor's remuneration. Following the implementation of the 2014 Competition and Markets Authority order on Statutory Audit Services only the Audit Committee may negotiate and agree the terms of the auditor's service agreement.

Resolutions 11 and 12 – Issue of Shares

Ordinary Resolution 11 in the Notice of Annual General Meeting will grant the authority to allot new share capital up to the equivalent of 10% of the Company's existing issued share capital on the date of the AGM. Such authority will expire on the date of the next Annual General Meeting or after a period of 15 months from the date of the passing of the resolution, whichever is earlier. This means that the authority will have to be renewed at the next Annual General Meeting unless previously renewed. Under Listing Rule 15.4.11R(1), the Company requires shareholder approval to issue shares for cash at a price below the net asset value per share of those shares. As explained on page 21 of the annual report, the Company also reports the net asset value per ordinary share after performance fee, which is calculated after providing for the performance fee payable by the Company, and which the Board considers is a more appropriate and comparable measure of the Company's true net asset value per ordinary share. This resolution provides that relevant securities may be issued at a price of at least the prevailing net asset value per ordinary share after performance fee (which may be less than the net asset value per ordinary share reported under IFRS (as adopted by the UK)).

When shares are to be allotted for cash, section 551 of the Companies Act 2006 (the "Act") provides that existing shareholders have preemption rights and that the new shares must be offered first to such shareholders in proportion to their existing holding of shares. However, shareholders can, by special resolution, authorise the Directors to allot shares otherwise than by a pro rata issue to existing shareholders. Special Resolution 12 will, if passed, give the Directors power to allot for cash equity securities up to 10% of the Company's existing share capital on the date of the Annual General Meeting as if Section 551 of the Act does not apply. This is the same nominal amount of share capital the Directors are seeking the authority to allot pursuant to Resolution 11. Sales of shares from treasury will be subject to the same limit. This authority will also expire on the date of the next Annual General Meeting or after a period of 15 months, whichever is earlier. This authority will not be used in connection with a rights issue by the Company.

Explanatory Notes to the Resolutions continued

The Directors intend to use the authority given by Resolutions 11 and 12 to allot shares (or sell shares from treasury) and disapply pre-emption rights only in circumstances where this will be clearly beneficial to shareholders as a whole. Any shares issued or sold under this authority will be issued or sold from treasury at a premium to the prevailing net asset value per Share after performance fee.

263566 Augmentum Notice of Meeting with new cover.qxp 01/07/2022 16:28 Page 7

Resolution 13 – Share Repurchases

The principal aim of a share buy back facility is to enhance shareholder value by acquiring shares at a discount to net asset value, as and when the Directors consider this to be appropriate. The purchase of shares, when they are trading at a discount to net asset value per share, should result in an increase in the net asset value per share for the remaining shareholders. This authority, if conferred, will only be exercised if to do so would result in an increase in the net asset value per share for the remaining shareholders and if it is considered to be in the best interests of shareholders generally. Any purchase of shares will be made within guidelines established from time to time by the Board.

Under the current Listing Rules, the maximum price that may be paid on the exercise of this authority must not exceed the higher of (i) 105% of the average of the middle market quotations for the shares over the five business days immediately preceding the date of purchase and (ii) the higher of the last independent trade and the highest current independent bid on the trading venue where the purchase is carried out. The minimum price which may be paid is 1 penny per share.

Resolution 14 – General Meetings

Special Resolution 14 seeks shareholder approval for the Company to hold general meetings (other than the AGM) on 14 clear days' notice.

The Company will only use this shorter notice period where it is merited by the purpose of the meeting and will endeavour to give at least 14 working days' notice if possible, in line with the recommendations of the UK Corporate Governance code.

Recommendation

The Board considers that the resolutions relating to the above items are in the best interests of shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Directors unanimously recommend to shareholders that they vote in favour of the above resolutions to be proposed at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting as they intend to do in respect of their own beneficial holdings, totalling 403,249 Shares.
