ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Brooge Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Pubco”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement on Form F-4 (File No. 333-233964) on September 27, 2019 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”), which included a preliminary proxy statement of Twelve Seas Investment Company, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Twelve Seas”), and a prospectus in connection with the proposed business combination transaction (the “Business Combination”) involving Twelve Seas, Pubco, Brooge Petroleum And Gas Investment Company FZE, a company formed under the laws of the Fujairah Free Zone, UAE (“BPGIC”) and BPGIC Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Seller”), pursuant to an assignment and joinder to the Business Combination Agreement (defined below), dated November 19, 2019. On November 5, 2019, Pubco filed Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement, on November 14, 2019, Pubco filed Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement, on November 20, 2019, Pubco filed Amendment No. 3 to the Registration Statement and on November 21, 2019, Pubco filed Amendment No. 4 to the Registration Statement. The Registration Statement was declared effective on November 22, 2019 and on November 25, 2019 Twelve Seas filed its definitive proxy statement (the “Definitive Proxy Statement”) with the SEC. Twelve Seas has mailed the Definitive Proxy Statement and other relevant documents to its shareholders as of November 15, 2019, the record date for voting on the Business Combination. Shareholders of Twelve Seas and other interested persons are advised to read the Definitive Proxy Statement, and any amendments thereto, in connection with Twelve Seas’ solicitation of proxies for the special meeting to be held to approve the Business Combination because these documents contain important information about Twelve Seas, BPGIC, Pubco, Seller and the Business Combination, including the merger of Twelve Seas with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco which will result in the current security holders of Twelve Seas becoming security holders of Pubco. Shareholders can also obtain copies of the Registration Statement and the related proxy statement/prospectus, without charge, on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or by directing a request to Twelve Seas by contacting its Chief Financial Officer, Stephen N. Cannon, c/o Twelve Seas Investment Company, 135 East 57^th Street, 18th Floor, New York, New York 10022, or at info@twelveseascapital.com.

DISCLAIMER

This report and the exhibits hereto do not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, or a solicitation of any vote or approval, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offering of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or pursuant to an exemption from registration requirements.

PARTICIPANTS IN THE BUSINESS COMBINATION

Twelve Seas, Pubco, BPGIC, Seller and their respective directors, executive officers, other members of management and employees, under SEC rules, may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the shareholders of Twelve Seas in connection with the Business Combination. Shareholders of Twelve Seas and other interested persons may obtain more information regarding the names and interests in the proposed transaction of Twelve Seas’ directors and officers in Twelve Seas’ filings with the SEC, including in the Registration Statement and in the Definitive Proxy Statement of Twelve Seas which was filed with the SEC on November 25, 2019, the final prospectus which was filed by Pubco with the SEC on November 25, 2019 and other relevant documents when they are filed with the SEC.
