New Energy One Acquisition Corporation Plc

Further to the announcement of its intention to cease operations except for the purpose of winding-up dated March 1, 2024, New Energy One Acquisition Corporation Plc ("NEOA" or the "Company"), a special purpose acquisition company, today announces the redemption process for Public Shareholders, the resignation of independent non-executive directors and an update on the Company's admission to listing and trading.

Redemption process for Ordinary Shares held by Public Shareholders

Public Shareholders who are registered in the register of members of the Company as of the close of business (6:00 p.m.) on 15 March 2024 (the "Redemption Record Time") will have their Ordinary Shares redeemed in connection with the cessation of the Company's operations and its decision not to pursue a Business Combination, and their CREST accounts will be credited with the funds by close of business of 3 April 2024 (the "Redemption Date") (subject to the Company having sufficient distributable reserves in order to fund such redemption and subject to all other requirements of applicable law and regulation).

The amount in the Escrow Account for redemption of each Ordinary Share held by Public Shareholders is anticipated to be £10.325 (comprising £10.00 per Offer Share representing the amount subscribed for by Public Shareholders in the Initial Public Offering, together with such Ordinary Shareholders' pro rata entitlement to the Escrow Account Overfunding, expected to be £0.325 per Offer Share. Any interest that accrues on the amount deposited in the Escrow Account, after deductions for any corporation tax charge thereon, will be set off against the amount initially contributed by the Sponsor Entities in respect of the Escrow Account Overfunding.

No action is required to be taken by Public Shareholders at this time. Public Shareholders who hold Ordinary Shares at the Redemption Record Time shall not be able to dispose of, encumber, charge or deal in any whatsoever with their Ordinary Shares and shall have their Ordinary Shares automatically redeemed and payment in respect thereof will be made by the Company's registrar as soon as practicable but no later than the Redemption Date.
