Board Chairman Appointment

Mollyroe an investment company, focused on delivering value accretion from the
highest-quality AI business opportunities – with the potential to change
industries and create enduring value, is pleased to announce the appointment of
Dominic Wheatley as Non-Executive Director and Chairman of the Company, with
immediate effect.

Dominic Wheatley is one of the most respected figures in the global interactive
entertainment industry. He is best known as the founder and CEO of Eidos
(previously Domark), where he was responsible for launching some of the
industry’s most iconic franchises, including Lara Croft Tomb
Raider and Championship Manager. The Tomb Raider franchise has now officially
crossed the 100 million units sold milestone, cementing Lara Croft as a billion
-dollar cultural icon with a massive, multi-generational global reach. Under
Dominic’s early guidance, Championship Manager transformed from a niche title
selling 90,000 copies into a genre-defining powerhouse that now attracts over 6
million active players annually. These franchises represent a rare «gold
standard» in gaming ROI, with the Tomb Raider reboot series alone generating
nearly 40 million sales, proving the enduring commercial scalability of Dominic
Wheatley’s original IP acquisitions. Mollyroe hopes to harness Dominic’s
capabilities of spotting and scaling the global interactive entertainment
industry’s most resilient, high-yield investment propositions.

He was latterly CEO of the Catalis Group, overseeing significant expansion of
the business. He built up QA specialist Testronic into a major games, film and
TV testing and services company that numbered over 2,000 employees operating
from 10 global locations before being taken over by private equity in 2023. As
CEO Dominic brought UK publisher Curve Games into the group which went on to
publish hits such as The Ascent, For the King and Human Fall Flat, which has now
sold over 60 million copies. In 2025, Curve Games was sold to Nazara, a global,
IP-driven powerhouse in the AI, Gaming, Esports, and Ad-tech» ecosystem.

More recently, Dominic has served as Chairman of Blaze Entertainment, which is
best known for the Evercade and HyperMegaTech brands, by securing high-value IP
from global giants like Activision, Capcom, and Microsoft’s Rare, Blaze has
transformed nostalgic intellectual property into a scalable, high-margin
hardware and physical media ecosystem.

Dominic’s «eye for talent» is arguably his greatest legacy, he has a knack for
spotting developers-like the teams behind Tomb Raider and Championship
Manager-and giving them the platform to go global. For example with Championship
Manager, he famously signed the Collyer brothers after other publishers passed
on their text-heavy football sim, and created one of the most successful sports
software franchises in history.

In his new role as Mollyroe Chairman, Dominic will work closely with Mollyroe’s
experienced leadership team to support the company’s strategic growth and
expansion with its current investment in Cascade and future investments.

Noel Lyons Non-Executive Director welcomes Dominic to the team saying: «adding
Dominic with his depth and breadth of experience in the digital entertainment
ecosystem is proof positive of our non-yielding ambition and we look forward to
working with him as our investment portfolio develops and expands. We have
promised investors that we would seek the highest quality investments and with
the highest quality board we have assembled, we are pursuing that goal.»

Dominic added: «I am delighted to be joining the Board at this pivotal time in
its development hard on the heels of a successful fundraising and what I believe
to be an extremely astute investment by way of convertible loan into Cascade
which I have followed and I consider to have the potential to be a unicorn in
the AI driven media and entertainment space. I look forward to working with
Darren, the Mollyroe CEO, my Board colleagues Noel and Paul, and the Cascade
management team for whom I have very high hopes.»
