ANNOUNCEMENT OF APPLICATION FOR ADMISSION TO THE AQSE GROWTH MARKET APPLICANT NAME: Hydrogen Utopia International PLC APPLICANT REGISTERED OFFICE, PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS (IF DIFFERENT) AND TELEPHONE NUMBER: Registered Office and Principal Place of Business Block D Imperial Works Perren Street London NW5 3ED DIRECTORS AND PROPOSED DIRECTORS (IF APPLICABLE): Aleksandra Malgorzata Binkowska (CEO) Guy Richard Peters (Executive Chairman) Keith Riley (Executive Director) * Steven Medlicott (Independent Non- Executive Director) * Paul Formanko (Independent Non-Executive Director) * (*each of whom will be appointed a Director on or before Admission) APPLICANT SECTOR: Alternative energy DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLICANT AND ITS ACTIVITIES: The primary mission of Hydrogen Utopia International PLC ("HUI" or "Company") is to accelerate the development of a circular and net zero carbon economy in Europe and contribute to achieving the EU's 2030 and 2050 environmental goals for targeted European countries. HUI aims to become one of the leading new European companies specialising in turning Non-Recyclable Mixed Waste Plastic into carbon-free fuels, new materials or distributed renewable heat. HUI's activities will range across the full value chain, from the production of energy from Non-Recyclable Mixed Waste Plastic for local communities, to the sale of its products (Syngas, hydrogen, electricity and heat) to end customers. In order to achieve this, HUI anticipates entering into commercial agreements with the private sector in targeted regions and markets and /or partnerships with regional and local authorities. HUI's initial strategic focus is to work closely with Powerhouse Energy Group PLC to create a project pipeline of HUI Facilities. HUI will concentrate its marketing and promotion of HUI Facilities on the European Continent in order to unlock significant value for current and future HUI shareholders. HUI also intends to explore opportunities across several industry verticals and, in due course, other non-European jurisdictions (always excluding the UK). HUI will target areas where there is significant private sector interest or potential, financial backing is accessible and or where substantial EU and/or government funded sources of grants and loans are or may be available, such as but not limited to the EU's "Just Transition Fund" which was set up to help fossil fuel dependent communities transition towards climate neutrality. The global increase in fossil fuel-based energy prices reinforces the need for alternative, price competitive energy sources, which HUI's business model can provide. A HUI Facility uses Non-Recyclable Mixed Waste Plastic as feedstock and turns it into Syngas from which new products and energy can be produced. HUI anticipates that its revenues will be derived from a variety of sources, dependent upon location and configuration of the HUI Facilities, including the sale of Syngas, hydrogen and other gases, electricity and heat sales, and the payment to it of fees for a given quantity of Non-Recyclable Mixed Waste Plastic received at a HUI Facility ("Gate Fees").
