On February 23, 2023, African Gold Acquisition Corporation ("<u>African Gold</u>") filed a definitive proxy statement (the "<u>Extension Proxy Statement</u>") for an extraordinary general meeting of its shareholders to be held on March 2, 2023 to consider and act upon a proposal to extend the date (the "<u>Termination Date</u>") by which African Gold must complete an initial business combination to June 2, 2023 (the "<u>Articles Extension Date</u>") and to allow African Gold, without the need for another shareholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date to consummate a business combination on a monthly basis, for up to nine times, by an additional one month each time after the Articles Extension Date, by resolution of African Gold's board of directors, if requested by African Gold Acquisition Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The Extension Proxy Statement was mailed to African Gold shareholders of record as of February 15, 2023. Shareholders may obtain a copy of the Extension Proxy Statement at the SEC's website (*www.sec.gov*).

As set forth in the Extension Proxy Statement, the deadline by which African Gold public shareholders had to complete the procedures for electing to redeem their Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the "<u>Ordinary Shares</u>"), was 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on February 28, 2023 ("<u>Redemption Deadline</u>"). The initial number of Ordinary Shares tendered for redemption prior to the Redemption Deadline was 37,299,111. Following such redemptions, if not withdrawn, African Gold will have 4,100,889 Ordinary Shares outstanding. The deadline for shareholders to withdraw previously submitted redemption requests is Thursday, March 2, 2023, prior to 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, subject to approval by the board of directors of African Gold.
