it has acquired the entire share capital of Forepower Lincoln (250)

Following the disposal of its legacy businesses, Vulcan has been
working to extend its portfolio of fabrication activities into the
renewable energy sector. Vulcan has been engaged with the vendor
over the last year to identify and develop a pipeline of Battery

in this evolution. Further projects are expected to be brought into
the Vulcan Group in due course.

holds a grid connection contract (to connect to the National Grid
Infrastructure) and an option to lease a parcel of land for a
minimum of 25 years. It has been identified as a major
infrastructure project which is currently in the pre-planning
stage. The management team of FPL(250) have a track record in
identifying Battery Storage opportunities, obtaining planning,
developing and bringing projects on line.
Vulcan offers the vendor the ability to raise the capital
necessary to develop the FPL (250) project. It is intended to raise
new equity capital initially to fund the working capital
requirements of the enlarged Group; continue the planning process
on the FPL (250) project and to further develop the pipeline of
opportunities.
It is intended to raise new equity capital, initially to fund
the working capital requirements of the enlarged Group; settle
existing liabilities of FPL (250) of GBP250,000; continue the
planning process on the FPL (250) project and to further develop
the pipeline of opportunities.
In the event that the FPL (250) project is sold, the profit on
disposal will be apportioned, with the first GBP1m payable to the
Vendor, the next GBP10m will be retained by the Company and the
remainder to be attributed 75% to the Company and 25% to the
Vendor.

Seller, whereby Vulcan will be offered rights of first refusal on
all future battery storage projects. A fee of GBP10,000 per MW will
be payable on receipt of planning consent for each project.

comprise 870,527,605 ordinary shares of GBP0.0004 each, with each
share carrying the right to one vote.
