Minds + Machines Group Limited

03 February 2022

The following announcement replaces the 'Result of Tender Offer' announcement released on 31 January 2022 at 7.00am under RNS No 0596A.

The oversubscription scale back mechanics of the Tender Offer were stated incorrectly, as such the Director's resulting holdings of the issued share capital held post Tender Offer were incorrect. The correct scale back mechanics were as follows:

- 1 Ordinary Share for every 1.485 Ordinary Shares held by a shareholder will be met in full representing approximately 93.35% of the Ordinary Shares being purchased by the Company

- The remaining 6.65% of the Ordinary Shares being bought back under the Tender Offer, will be purchased pro rata to the number of shares tendered in excess of a shareholders Basic Entitlement. 16.59832% of shares tendered in excess of a shareholders Basic Entitlement will be purchased

As a result of the above amendments, the resultant 'Director shareholdings' included in the main body of this announcement are now correct.

All other details remain unchanged.

The full amended text is shown below.
