Morgan, where he worked with a large number of different institutional investors. He also previously held a senior distribution role at Galaxy Digital, a Nasdaq-listed digital asset firm and most recently served as Chief Commercial Officer at DS3 Crypto, a specialist digital asset consultancy. He brings extensive experience and relationships spanning traditional financial markets and digital assets, which will support the Company’s continued development.\n\nIn this role, Jamie will lead the Company’s capital markets strategy, with responsibility for developing strategic relationships, enhancing communication strategies with the investment community and supporting the continued growth of the Company’s shareholder base. He will work closely with the Board and senior management to advance the Company’s objectives, including increasing Bitcoin per share and delivering long-term shareholder value.\n\nJamie has previously supported the Company in a consulting capacity, contributing to several key initiatives. As the Company continues to scale both its acquisition strategy and its Bitcoin treasury strategy, capital markets expertise is an increasingly important component of the business, and Jamie’s appointment reflects the Board’s focus on executing these strategies in a disciplined and scalable manner.\n\n**Andrew Webley, CEO, The Smarter Web Company, commented:**\n\n“Jamie is a welcome addition to our team, and we are pleased to welcome him in a full-time capacity. His institutional experience and strong market relationships will enhance our engagement with institutional investors and support disciplined execution as we continue to evolve as a public company built on digital capital.”\n\n**Jamie Knowles, Head of Capital Markets, The Smarter Web Company, commented:**\n\n“I am pleased to be joining The Smarter Web Company in a full-time capacity. Having worked with the team, as a consultant, over recent months, I have developed a strong appreciation for the clarity of its strategy, the scale of its ambition and the opportunity within the UK capital markets landscape. I look forward to working with the team and all the different stakeholders, ensuring disciplined capital markets execution, as we continue to advance our 10 Year Plan.”\n\n**Deferred Shares**\n\nAt the Company’s annual general meeting held on 19 March 2026 (“AGM”), shareholders approved special resolutions 16 and 17 relating to the authorisation of an off-market buyback of the Company’s deferred shares of £0.049 each in the capital of the company (the “Deferred Shares”). The Company is pleased to confirm that it has now completed the purchase of the entire class of Deferred Shares for £0.01 (the “Buyback”), in accordance with the terms of the off-market buyback agreement that was tabled at the AGM. Following completion of the Buyback, the Deferred Shares were immediately cancelled.\n\nThe Company financed the Buyback through the issue of 1 new ordinary share of £0.001 each in the capital of the company (the “New Ordinary Share”) at a price of 32 pence, being the volume-weighted average price over the 10 trading days prior to the AGM. It is expected that admission of the New Ordinary Share to trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange will become effective at 8:00 a.m. on or around 26 March 2026 (“Admission”).\n\nTotal Voting Rights\n\nFollowing Admission, the total number of ordinary shares in issue in the Company will be 351,919,127 of £0.001 each. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA’s Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules. The Company does not hold any ordinary shares in treasury.\n\nEnquiries:\n\n|   |   |\n| --- | --- |\n| The Smarter Web Company CEO / Head of Capital Markets Andrew Webley / Jamie Knowles   | +44 (0) 117 313 0459 |"}
