Appointment of non-executive Director and results of AGM

waste hydrogen as a by-product from their operations. AFC Energy's fuel cells
use this captured hydrogen to produce electricity.

AFC Energy's fuel cells use a reduced level of precious metals and the Company
has a clear route to commercialisation by selling fuel cells directly to the
end-user. Akzo Nobel is AFC Energy's first customer.
