ACG Acquisition Company Limited

("ACG" or the "Company")

Approval and Publication of Prospectus, Convening of Acquisition Shareholder Meeting and Exercise of Redemption Rights

THE TRANSACTION

On 18 July 2024, ACG announced that it had agreed the acquisition of the Gediktepe Mine in Türkiye from Lidya Madencilik Sanayi ve Ticaret Anonim Şirketi (the "Seller"), a subsidiary of Istanbul-based conglomerate Çalık Holding (the "Acquisition").

APPROVAL AND PUBLICATION OF PROSPECTUS

ACG today announces that a prospectus (the "Prospectus") dated today has been approved by the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority and has been published by the Company. The Prospectus relates to the (1) placing of up to 4,166,667 Class A Ordinary Shares of ACG (the "Placing Shares"), together with one redeemable public warrant per Placing Share, at US$6.00 per Placing Share to certain institutional investors (the "Placing"); (2) the issuance of up to 11,250,000 Class A Ordinary Shares (the "Funding Shares") at US$6.00 per Funding Share to certain investors funding the Acquisition; (3) the issuance of 7,233,905 Class A Ordinary Shares to the Seller as consideration for the Acquisition (the "ACG Sale Shares"), and (4) the re-admission of all the Class A Ordinary Shares and the public warrants of the Company to listing, effective as of the closing date of the Acquisition. The Company will also issue one redeemable private placement warrant per Funding Share or ACG Sale Share subscribed for. The net proceeds from the Placing will be applied towards the payment of consideration in relation to the Acquisition and the Company may use any Placing proceeds above US$15 million to optimise its capital structure following the completion of the Acquisition, including by reducing certain equity commitments made by ACG's funding partners, as described in more detail in the Prospectus.

Copies of the Prospectus will be available from the Company's registered office at Craigmuir Chambers, PO Box 71, Road Town, Tortola, VG1110, British Virgin Islands and on the Company's website at www.acgcorp.co, subject to certain access restrictions.

A copy of the Prospectus will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.

CONVENING of Acquisition EGM

ACG today announces the publication of a circular (the "Circular") and a notice of extraordinary general meeting of its shareholders ("EGM Notice") convening a meeting of the shareholders of ACG (the "Acquisition EGM") for the purpose of considering and voting on the adoption of certain resolutions, including, but not limited to, the approval of the Acquisition in accordance with the memorandum and articles of association of ACG currently in effect ("M&As") and the revision of the M&As.

The Acquisition EGM will be held at 10:00 a.m. London time on 20 August 2024 at Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP, 2 London Wall, Barbican, London, EC2Y 5AU, England.

In addition to being available at www.acgcorp.co subject to certain access restrictions, shareholders of ACG will also receive a copy of the Circular and the EGM Notice by postal mail.

REDEMPTION RIGHTS

In accordance with Article 18 of its M&As, ACG is required to provide its public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Class A Ordinary Shares prior to the completion of the Acquisition at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Escrow Account held by ACG calculated as of two U.K. trading days prior to the consummation of the Acquisition (including any Overfunding), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares, subject to amongst other things the redemption limitations described in the M&As.

However, as announced on 28 June 2024, the Company already provided its Class A Ordinary Shareholders with the right to redeem their Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with the extension of the deadline by which the Company must complete an acquisition (as such term is defined in the M&As) (the "Extension").

Further to its announcements on 28 June 2024 and 26 July 2024, ACG announces today that the deadline by which Class A Ordinary Shareholders wishing to redeem all or a portion of their depositary interests in Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with the Extension are required to submit their redemption election electronically through the UK's Certificateless Registry for Electronic Share Transfer ("CREST") has been further extended from 13 August 2024 to 1:00 pm London time on 21 August 2024.

Except to the extent amended by this announcement, redemption rights arising from the Acquisition and those relating to the Extension shall be exercised following the same redemption process and in accordance with the key redemption procedures and conditions previously announced by ACG on 28 June 2024. The redemption payment is expected to take place on or around the completion date of the Acquisition. As of the date of this announcement, the total number of Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding is 4,112. The amount on deposit on the Escrow Account as of 31 July 2024 was equal to US$124,579.42. In accordance with Article 18 of the M&As, the final redemption price per Class A Ordinary Share will be calculated based on the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Escrow Account as of two U.K. trading days prior to the consummation of the Acquisition and will supersede the redemption price announced on 28 June 2024. Such final redemption price will be announced by ACG in due course and confirmed prior to payment within CREST. For the avoidance of doubt, any holders who have already elected to have their Class A Ordinary Shares redeemed as of the date hereof, or do elect hereafter to submit redemption elections, are eligible to vote at the Acquisition EGM irrespective of whether they vote for or against or abstain from voting on the proposed Acquisition.

Additional information regarding the redemption arrangements can be found in the Prospectus under the heading "Part XIII. Share Capital, Liquidity and Capital Resources and Accounting Policies - Redemption".

As a result of the Extension, redeeming shareholders who have validly elected to redeem all or a portion of their Class A Ordinary Shares shall have such depositary interests in the Class A Ordinary Shares redeemed and payment will be made as soon as practicable after the expected transaction closing date even if the Acquisition is not approved at the Acquisition EGM or does not complete.

UPDATED Transaction Timeline¹

The remaining milestones in respect of the Acquisition are as shown below.

1 All dates are indicative and subject to change. All times are London time.

Further announcements will be made in due course. Unless otherwise defined, capitalised terms used in this announcement have the meaning set forth in the Company's M&As.
