Marwyn Acquisition Company III Limited 

(the "Company")

REDEEMABLE SHARE CLASS PLACING PROGRAMME

Further to the Company's announcement on 31 March 2022, the Board of Directors of Marwyn Acquisition Company III Limited (ticker: MAC3) is pleased to announce that the Company will, subject to the approval of the FCA, today publish a Prospectus in respect of a 12-month placing programme pursuant to which the Company has the ability to issue up to 500 million C ordinary redeemable shares ("C Shares") at an issue price of £1 per C Share in order to raise up to an aggregate of £500 million.

The principal features of the MAC Model:

The Directors believe that the ability to issue C Shares where appropriate, alongside the existing flexibility of the MAC Model to utilise the issuance of either listed Ordinary shares or unlisted B shares provides the Company with a competitive advantage in securing attractive acquisition opportunities and bringing the best executive management back to the UK public markets.

Whilst the Company is not seeking to operate within the existing LSE SPAC regime, the Directors believe that both the regulatory framework and market structure of the LSE's standard listed companies remains very supportive of our strategy.

James Corsellis, Director, commented: "Today's launch of the MAC3 prospectus marks the next step in creating a series of acquisition companies that fulfil the requirements of both entrepreneurial business leaders and market participants. Ever since we introduced our innovative structure for acquisition companies, we have received extremely positive feedback and interest in working with us. There is a strong cohort of talented company executives who want to grow and transform businesses within a listed markets context, and through the MAC model we have the solution for them. We look forward to identifying the right management teams and businesses to create real and aligned value over the medium and long term."

A copy of the Prospectus will, when published, be available on the Company's website: www.marwynac3.com/investors/prospectus  and at the National Storage Mechanism at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.

Capitalised terms used and not otherwise defined in this announcement shall bear the meanings given to them in the Prospectus.

Information to Distributors:

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements of Chapter 3 of the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook (the "UK Product Governance Requirements") and/or any equivalent requirements elsewhere to the extent determined to be applicable, and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the UK Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the C Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that the C Shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, and not retail clients, each defined in Chapter 3 of the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all permitted distribution channels (the "Target Market Assessment"). Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, Distributors should note that: the price of the C Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the C Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection beyond the terms of the Trust Account which apply prior to any Business Acquisition; and an investment in C Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection (beyond the terms of the Trust Account which apply prior to any Business Acquisition), who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Placing Programme.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of Chapters 9A or 10A respectively of the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the C Shares, the Ordinary Shares or the C Warrants.

Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the C Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.
