BACKGROUND

EnergyPathways is an integrated energy transition company and plans to generate shareholder value by playing a wide role in providing the UK with energy security and low emission energy solutions. It is initially targeting UK gas assets, that can be brought into production in the near term providing critical supply to ensure domestic energy security as well as reducing the UK's carbon footprint.

EnergyPathways holds, via its wholly-owned subsidiary EnergyPathways Irish Sea Limited, a 100 per cent. interest in block 110/4a in Seaward Licence P2490 that contains the Marram gas field (the "Marram Field" or "Marram Gas Project"), located 30km west of mainland UK, and lies approximately 15-25km from existing offshore gas infrastructure including the Morecambe gas complex in the UK waters of the Irish Sea Basin.

The Marram Field, which was discovered in 1993, is estimated to contain 35.3 Bcf of undeveloped gas 2P Reserves. EnergyPathways considers the field to be a fully appraised, 'ready-to-go' gas development asset with low sub-surface technical risk. It has potential to be brought into production in a relatively short cycle time, due to its shallow water location and its potential to be tied-in to nearby existing infrastructure that has available capacity.

EnergyPathways' proposed development plan for the Marram Gas Project comprises two sub-sea horizontal wells and a tie back to the existing infrastructure. The Company hopes the project will generate high rates of return and a prompt payback. EnergyPathways is targeting first production from the Marram Gas Project in 2025.

The Directors consider that natural gas will be a bridging fuel in the UK energy transition to net zero and that natural gas will have a critical role to play in the UK's energy market for decades to come. Gas power generation is set to have a critical role in providing flexible energy supply as intermittent renewable wind energy generation in the UK increases. It is the Director's view that a successful development of the Marram Gas Project can supply low emission gas to the UK making a favourable contribution towards reducing UK's carbon footprint as well as providing energy security to the UK.

EnergyPathways' internal estimates suggest that there may be up to 2 Tcf gas potential in the UK Irish Sea region. The Company believes these resources have potential to be developed in relatively short time frames and provide the UK with increased energy security and low emission energy supply. EnergyPathways is actively exploring opportunities to expand its resource base and has a number of licence requests under consideration with the Government regulator.

The UK Irish Sea region is ideally suited for integrating undeveloped UK gas resources with the co-located clean energy technologies and assets of the region to provide reliable, secure and affordable low emission energy supply. The UK Irish Sea region contains major renewable wind generation capacity, reservoirs suited to natural gas and hydrogen energy storage and CCUS and existing energy infrastructure, and the UK's leading hydrogen hub development is nearby which will be driven initially by using gas feedstock, gas reforming technologies and CCUS.
