Following review of the existing ownership structure, liabilities and governance arrangements, the Company has completed an investment reorganisation designed to:

Henceforth, the trade name of the business will be referred to by the Company as Eco Oil.
Consideration and Investment
The consideration for the acquisition of JKT Technologies is
-- US$400,000 consideration satisfied through the issue of 296,296,296
ordinary shares of 0.001 pence each (“Ordinary Shares”) at an issue
price of 0.1 pence (“Issue Price”) per Ordinary Share (the
“Consideration Shares”);
-- US$180,000 to be funded by VEUSA from proceeds of the Financing
Agreement (announced on 30 January 2026 ); and
-- US$228,000 by way of the assumption of certain liabilities agreed
between parties.
As part of the investment reorganisation,
Under the Eco Oil operating agreement following the acquisition, VEUSA will be entitled to 80 per cent. of distributable profits from Eco Oil until the Company’s capital investment has been repaid and a 12 per cent. per annum preferred return on capital provided to Eco Oil including cash and the nominal value of shares issued to effect the transaction. Once fully repaid, VEUSA will be entitled to 60 per cent. of distributable profits from Eco Oil, a significant increase from the previous position. As a result of the transaction, ADM’s effective economic exposure to the JKT operations increases from approximately 41.4 per cent. to 80 per cent. during the initial payout period, before reverting to 60 per cent. economic interest.
The Board believes this materially improves the Company’s ability to oversee the performance of its investee company’s strategy and operations.
