CleanTech Lithium PLC ("CleanTech Lithium" or "CTL" or the "Company")

Result of General Meeting ("GM"), PDMR Shareholdings

and

Total Voting Rights ("TVR")

CleanTech Lithium PLC (AIM:CTL, Frankfurt:T2N, OTCQX:CTLHF ), a company advancing sustainable lithium projects in Chile for the clean energy transition, announces that at the General Meeting held earlier today all resolutions, as set out in a circular dated 23 November 2023 relating to the conditional Placing and the Open Offer to Qualifying Shareholders (the "Circular") were duly passed.

Open Offer

The Open Offer closed for acceptances at 11.00 a.m. on 13 December 2023. Although the Open Offer was oversubscribed by 12.5% at approximately GBP586,000, the Company was required to scale back valid applications to its maximum allotment allowance of 2,365,188 Open Offer Shares. As such, the Open Offer raised gross proceeds of approximately GBP520,000.

All valid applications for basic entitlements under the Open Offer have been met in full; excess applications have been scaled back to ensure the maximum allotment allowance of Open Offer Shares was not exceeded.

Consistent with the terms of the Placing, Open Offer Shares have a warrant attached in the ratio of one Warrant for every two Open Offer Shares allotted. Where an odd number of Open Offer Shares were allotted to an applicant, the warrant entitlement was rounded down. Accordingly, a total of 1,182,577 warrants have been granted in connection with the Open Offer.

Fundraising

The Company has raised total gross proceeds of approximately GBP8.5 million from the Open Offer and Fundraising, as described in the "Results of Fundraising" announcement published on 22 November 2023 and in the Circular.

Result of GM

Details of the results of the poll were as follows:

Aldo Boitano, Chief Executive Officer of CleanTech Lithium Plc, commented : "Thank you to all our shareholders who participated in the recent Open Offer and to those who voted at our General Meeting. It is encouraging to see an active investor base and your continued support is much appreciated as we develop sustainable lithium projects in Chile. I am particularly pleased that our Open Offer was oversubscribed, a clear vote of confidence for the Company's plans in 2024.

We recently hosted a successful visit to Chile with the Board which involved planning sessions for our 2024 key milestones and a visit to the DLE Pilot Plant at our Copiapó facility. Shareholders can expect an update on this soon."
