Conversion of existing Convertible Loan Notes 

Active Energy, the London quoted international biomass based renewable energy and forestry management business, announces that a holder of convertible loan notes issued by the Company (the "CLNs") has elected to convert CLNs with a nominal value of £72,284 into new ordinary shares of 1p each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") pursuant to the terms of the CLNs. Accordingly, 7,228,400 new Ordinary Shares have been issued to the CLN holder in accordance with the terms of the CLNs at a conversion price of 1p (the "Conversion Shares").

Total Voting Rights

Application has been made for the Conversion Shares, which will rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares, to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will become effective and dealings will commence at 8:00am on or around 1 September 2020.

Following Admission and prior to Active Energy's proposed share capital reorganisation which was announced on 20 August 2020, the Company's enlarged issued share capital will comprise 1,287,536,163 Ordinary Shares with voting rights.  This figure may therefore be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
