DG Innovate plc Announces Board Changes DG Innovate Plc announces that Jochen Rudat (Executive Director) and Trevor Gabriel (Non-Executive Director) have offered to step down as Directors with immediate effect, to help the Company reduce its ongoing cost base and streamline the Board. This follows the Company's announcement on 31 December that it intends to cancel the admission to trading of its ordinary shares on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange, with various other steps also being taken to reduce costs and ensure that the Board and wider team are of an appropriate size as DGI continues to progress the commercialisation of its technology. Following these changes, the Board of the Company comprises: Peter Bardenfleth-Hansen (Chief Executive Officer), Christian Eidem (Executive Director), Jack Allardyce (Chief Financial Officer), Sir Michael Fallon (Independent Non-Executive Director) and Mark Carleton (Independent Non-Executive Director).

DG Innovate Intends to Delist from London Stock Exchange Effective January 31, 2025 DG Innovate plc announced its intention to cancel the listing of the Company's ordinary shares ("Shares") on the Equity Shares (Transition) category of the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") and the admission to trading of its Shares on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange. DGI's management team has made significant operational progress over the past 12 months, including: signing of the Indian Joint Venture Agreement with EVage, delivering the Pareta P450 and e-brake motor prototypes to partner Cummins, and completion and initial testing of the first P80 samples in the past week. Despite this, the Company has found it difficult to raise sufficient funds to invest in its commercialisation strategy during this period, and in general since coming to market via reverse takeover in April 2022. This is in part due to its current listing and the constraints of the associated prospectus rules. However, it is also clear that there has been and remains a broad lack of demand for exposure to companies at DGI's current stage of development within the UK's traditional institutional investor base. The DGI Directors do not foresee any obvious near-term catalysts likely to change this backdrop and have therefore concluded that the costs, regulatory requirements and additional administrative burden associated with maintaining the Company's listing are now, in their opinion, completely disproportionate to the benefits. Furthermore, current discussions with potential investors who could substantially invest in DGI were it no longer listed has given the Directors confidence that this provides the best available route to significant funding. In order to continue these funding discussions and focus management resources on operational matters, the Board has therefore concluded that it is necessary to cancel the listing of the Company's Shares on the Equity Shares (Transition) category of the Official List and to cancel the admission to trading of the Shares on the Main Market for listed securities of the London Stock Exchange ("LSE") (the "Delisting"). The Directors believe that the Delisting will significantly reduce the Company's cost base and assist the Company in raising the capital it requires to invest in its products and assembly capacity, and grow the business. The Directors remain absolutely committed to delivering value for all DGI's shareholders, with whom the Board are substantially aligned, given their respective shareholdings. The Directors believe that this course of action is the most appropriate to take at this time. As a company listed on the Equity Shares (Transition) category, the Company is not required to obtain the approval of its shareholders for the Delisting, but is required under UK Listing Rule 21.2.17 to give at least 20 business days' notice of the intended cancellation. Accordingly, DGI has requested that (i) the FCA cancel the listing of the Shares on the Official List of the FCA, and that (ii) the LSE cancels the admission to trading of the Shares on the Main Market for listed securities of the LSE. It is anticipated that the Delisting will become effective from 8:00 a.m. (London time) on 31 January 2025. Investors holding Shares following the Delisting will remain a shareholder of DG Innovate and continue to be entitled to exercise all of the rights attaching to the Shares. Announcement • Dec 11

New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: UK£7.44m (US$9.72m) This is considered a major risk. Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (13% average weekly change). Revenue is less than US$1m (UK£116k revenue, or US$152k). Market cap is less than US$10m (UK£7.44m market cap, or US$9.72m).

DG Innovate Plc Announces the Completion of the First Phase of Its Project to Utilise the Company's Pareta E-Drive in Marine Applications DG Innovate Plc announced the completion of the first phase of its project to utilise the Company's Pareta e-drive in marine applications. As previously announced, DG Innovate was awarded grant funding at the beginning of 2023 for a feasibility study into the use of the Company's Pareta®? e-drive for marine operations alongside a partner providing a hydrogen fuel cell power system. This project has now delivered a fully costed design for an integrated fuel cell and powertrain system using the Company's technology. With no gearbox involved the driveline is much more efficient and reliable compared to the current diesel engine /gearbox system, together with offering the benefits of zero emissions. The system design was overseen and guided by Lloyd's Register's risk-based design guidelines and DG Innovate reported that "Approval in Principle" has now been received from Lloyd's Register for the Company's Pareta™? e-drive system to be fitted to marine vessels - one of the primary target outcomes from the project. Utilising DG Innovate's high efficiency modular drive motor and integrated inverter, the project has defined a system level segmented marinised fuel cell energy supply, feeding a similarly segmented driveline delivering circa 3MW power. The system is designed to deliver zero-emission power to a ship saving approximately 1700kg of CO2 equivalent per hour at 3MW as compared to diesel powered vessels. The primary near term potential market for a circa 3MW system is expected to be power for workboats and crew transfer vessels servicing offshore installations in the North Sea and elsewhere. Hundreds of such vessels are expected to be commissioned in the UK to service wind farms and other offshore installations. The next stage of the project, for which the Company expects to receive further grant funding, will lead towards a full demonstration vessel project. Announcement • Dec 13

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of British stocks, typically moving 8.3% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-UK£1.5m free cash flow). Earnings have declined by 43% per year over the past 5 years. Revenue is less than US$1m (UK£35k revenue, or US$43k). Market cap is less than US$10m (UK£3.33m market cap, or US$4.14m).

DG Innovate plc Showcases Comprehensive EV Solutions at CENEX-LCV 2023 DG Innovate announced that the Company will be showcasing a comprehensive package of products and solutions for designers, manufacturers and operators of electric vehicles ("EVs") at CENEX-LCV 2023, the UK's premier exhibition and conference devoted to low-carbon vehicle and fuel cell technologies. CENEX-LCV2023 is being held on 6 and 7 September 2023 at UTAC Millbrook, near Bedford, UK. DG Innovate will be highlighting its E-Axle for buses and other heavy vehicles, which has been developed in collaboration with BRIST Axle Systems S.r.l. This is a complete assembly with the Company's fully integrated Pareta motor and drive. It is a plug-and-play solution for axles with up to 13 tonne ratings and is suitable for both retrofit and new build applications. A key benefit is that the integrated design frees up more space for batteries, allowing vehicles to achieve greater range. Also on show for the first time will be DG Innovate's Pareta fleet monitoring and tracking system, which provides powerful cloud-based tools for EV fleet management. The system continually shows the location of all vehicles in the fleet on a map-based display, and, simply by tapping the relevant vehicle icon, the user can instantly call up performance data and energy level. Data is also stored for later analysis to allow comparisons between vehicles and between drivers. Another innovation on the DG Innovate stand at CenEX-LCV 2023 will be a software package that simulates EVs and allows them to be virtually driven over user-defined terrain so that the performance of various drive options can be evaluated and compared. At the exhibition, this software has been partnered with a driving station to provide live demonstrations. To complement its new introductions, DG Innovate is showing motors and inverters from its Pareta range. These use a unique segmented architecture that splits the inverter and the torque producing elements into multiple segments. This provides numerous benefits, including improved efficiency, enhanced thermal characteristics, operation from safer low voltage supplies and class-leading mass and volumetric power density. In addition, Pareta drives offer unmatched fault resilience as, if a segment fails, the drive continues to operate normally except for a slight reduction in maximum torque. Announcement • Jun 23
