INTENTION TO MOVE FROM AIM TO LONDON MAIN MARKET
Pan African is pleased to announce an update in relation to the proposed application for the Company's
ordinary shares ('Ordinary Shares') to be admitted to the Equity Shares (Commercial Companies) ('ESCC')
category of the Official List maintained by the Financial Conduct Authority ('FCA') ('Official List') and to
trading on London Stock Exchange plc's ('London Stock Exchange') main market for listed securities ('Main
Market') (together, 'Admission').
Admission remains subject to the approval by the FCA of a prospectus prepared by the Company and the
Ordinary Shares being admitted by the FCA to the ESCC segment of the Official List, and by the London Stock
Exchange to trading on the Main Market. Subject to the satisfaction of these conditions, and further to the
announcement made on 8 September 2025, the Company expects that Admission will take place and the
Ordinary Shares will be cancelled from trading on AIM in late October, but will not occur before 22 October
2025 ('Cancellation'). Under the AIM Rules for Companies ('AIM Rules'), the Cancellation can only take place
after the expiry of a period of 20 business days from the date on which the notice of Cancellation is given.
Accordingly, the Company hereby gives notice of the intended cancellation of trading of its Ordinary Shares
on AIM in accordance with Rule 41 of the AIM Rules.
Admission is not conditional upon shareholder approval. Pan African shareholders should consult their own
professional advisors regarding the consequences of Admission on their personal tax position.
Peel Hunt LLP and Joh. Berenberg, Gossler & Co. KG are acting as joint sponsors exclusively to the Company
and no one else in connection with Admission.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Admission will have no impact on the Company's listing on the JSE.
Accordingly, following Admission, the Company will be dual primary listed on the Main Market and the main
board of the JSE.
