Conversion of Loan & Issue of Equity
Director/PDMR Shareholding


Shuka Minerals Plc (AIM/AltX: SKA), an African focused mine operator and developer, announces
that, further to its announcement of 18 September 2026, it has received a conversion notice from
Richard Lloyd, CEO of the Company.

Mr Lloyd has elected to convert all of the Loan that was assigned to him being an aggregate
principal amount of £100,000 into 2,500,000 new ordinary shares of £0.01 each in the capital of the
Company (the “Conversion Shares”), at the agreed conversion price of 4 pence per Conversion
Share.

In accordance with the terms of the Loan, the Company has also granted Richard Lloyd warrants to
subscribe for an aggregate of 2,500,000 new ordinary shares at an exercise price of 8 pence per
share. The warrants are exercisable on or before 20 July 2029.

Following Admission (as defined below), Richard Lloyd is beneficially interested in 5,442,136 ordinary
shares in the Company, representing approximately 3.10% of the Company’s issued share capital.

Admission and total voting rights

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the Conversion Shares to be admitted
to trading on AIM (“Admission”). It is expected that Admission will become effective and dealings in
the Conversion Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m. on or around 8 October 2026. The Conversion
Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the Company’s existing ordinary shares.

Following Admission, the Company’s total issued share capital will comprise 175,548,474 ordinary
shares, each carrying one voting right. The Company does not hold any ordinary shares in treasury.

Accordingly, the figure of 175,548,474 may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the
calculations by which they determine whether they are required to notify their interest in, or a change
to their interest in, the Company under the FCA’s Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

Shuka Minerals CEO, Richard Lloyd, commented: “I am pleased to continue to increase my stake in
the Company and I am committed to drive value for all shareholders.”
