"As we move forward with the future strategy for the Company, we believe that these new Directors will be invaluable in helping us to progress. Given their backgrounds and networks, we view their decision to join the Board as a strong endorsement of our vision to create shareholder value. Graham brings a wealth of world-wide expertise and contacts across the wider energy industry. He has played active roles in business restructuring and refinancing companies and enabling businesses turnarounds.

Background on the Islandmagee Storage Project

The Islandmagee gas storage project company, Islandmagee Storage Limited ("IMSL"), is owned 90% by a wholly owned subsidiary of InfraStrata plc and 10% by a wholly owned subsidiary of Mutual Energy Limited. The project is a proposed salt cavern gas storage facility located on Islandmagee in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. Work commenced in 2007 with the acquisition of 3D seismic data to image the Permian salt in the Larne Lough area. During 2012, planning permission was granted for the project and a gas storage licence was issued by the Utility Regulator. In 2015 a well was drilled to core the salt and confirm the technical feasibility of the project, supported in part by the Commission. To date approximately GBP11m has been invested in the project.

Further information is available on the project company's website: www.islandmageestorage.com.
