Proposed Reduction of the Share Premium Account and Notice of General Meeting
Jubilee, the Zambia copper focused producer, announces the Company's proposal to reduce its share
premium account (Capital Reduction) in order to restructure the Company's balance sheet so as to
increase the amount of available distributable reserves available (subject to the protection of creditors).
The Company furthermore expects to release the phase 1 drill results of its Molefe Mine operations on
Tuesday 24 March 2026.
The Capital Reduction will create distributable reserves to support the Company's ability to make future
payments of dividends to its shareholders and undertake potential share buybacks (in each case should
circumstances mean it is appropriate or desirable to do so), as well as other corporate purposes of the
Company.
The Capital Reduction is conditional upon passing of a special resolution by the Company's shareholders
in addition to approval of the Court.
In addition, the Company is also seeking to renew the standard authority to grant Directors authority to
issue shares as granted at the previous 2024 AGM and to dis-apply pre-emption rights. The Company
wishes to dis-apply pre-emption rights only to a maximum of 10% of the issued ordinary share capital of
the Company. The Dis-application Resolution is to give flexibility to the Company to issue new warrants,
options or shares to support the Company when leveraging investment capital and aligning employees'
and stakeholders' interests with shareholders of the Company.
Notice is hereby given of the General Meeting of the Company to be held at 11.00 a.m. (UK time), 12.00
p.m. (SA time) on Wednesday, 8 April 2026 at Fieldfisher LLP, Riverbank House, 2 Swan Lane, London
EC4R 3TT to consider and vote on the resolutions.
The circular containing the notice of General Meeting (notice of General Meeting) will be published and
posted to shareholders on 23 March 2026. A copy of the circular containing the notice of General Meeting
is also available on the Company's website at https://jubileemetalsgroup.com/circulars/.
Subject to both the passing of the special resolution at the General Meeting and the court approving the
Capital Reduction, it is expected that the effective date of the share premium reduction will be on or around
29 April 2026.
The Capital Reduction will not, of itself, involve any distribution or return of capital to any shareholder and
will not reduce the Company's underlying assets. The completion of the Capital Reduction will not affect
the rights attaching to the Ordinary Shares and will not result in any change to the number of Ordinary
Shares in issue (or their nominal value).
