The Placing was completed at a price of NOK 1.20 per New Common Share (equivalent to approximately £0.0873), representing a 0.83% discount in respect of the closing price of the Company's equity securities on the Euronext Growth Oslo on May 2, 2025.
The Company has entered into an unsecured Convertible Loan for a total amount of US\$2,000,000 (equivalent to approx. NOK 20,715,000 or GBP 1,500,000).
• Under the terms of the Convertible Loan, the Company has undertaken that it shall not enter into any additional Convertible Loan Agreements or any convertible debt instruments until all obligations under this Agreement have been fully settled.
The proceeds of the Placement and the Convertible Loan will be used to provide immediate additional funding for the potential acquisition of near-term electricity production assets currently being evaluated by the Company.
The Company wishes to announce the following information, in accordance with the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules and section 3.10 and 3.11.5 (3) of the Euronext Growth Oslo Rule Book Part II, resulting from the issuance of the New Common Shares.

"We are evaluating additional renewable energy production opportunities in line with our publicly announced strategy of creating a 20 MWp solar energy portfolio by the close of 2025, thereby achieving a material quantum of revenue and associated profitability.
The Private Placement and the Convertible Loan, which has a grace period of three months during which no conversion can take place, provide us with valuable strategic funding prior to the Company potentially achieving success on other fronts.
The objective is to build a Company with a solid long-term financial foundation in stable jurisdictions that will enable Zenith to pay dividends to shareholders.
As recent events have shown, the strategic importance of reliable, domestic electricity supply cannot be overstated.
I look forward to updating shareholders in due course regarding our progress."
