The proposed issue to which this Appendix 3B relates is 5EA's proposed issue of shares of common stock in 5EA on Nasdaq under an "at-the-market" offering in the United States ("ATM Program"). Under the ATM Program, 5EA will advise its Agents to place a certain number of shares of common stock, subject to certain parameters. The Agents will then offer those shares into the United States market and seek to sell those shares based on 5EA's instructions.

The proposed issue date for shares of common stock under the ATM Program is not currently known. The proposed issue date stated in this Appendix 3B is provided because it is a requirement to do so ¿ and is not indicative of the actual issue date of shares of common stock under the ATM Program, which may occur on multiple dates between the date of the Equity Distribution Agreement entered into between 5EA and the Agents, and the date on which the Equity Distribution Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms.

Under the ATM Program, 5EA may issue up to a maximum of 9,492,875 without shareholder approval, being the applicable placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 as at the date of the Equity Distribution Agreement. The Equity Distribution Agreement provides for the offer and sale of up to US$15,000,000 of shares of common stock, from time to time. Any shares of common stock issued under the ATM Program in excess of 5EA's placement capacity will be subject to, and conditional on, shareholder approval. There is no minimum number of shares of common stock to be offered under the ATM Program.

The issue price per security referred to in this Appendix 3B is an estimate only, based on the closing price of 5EA's shares of common stock on Nasdaq on 28 March 2024 (US time), being the last closing price prior to the lodgment of this Appendix 3B. The actual price for the shares of common stock to be issued under the ATM Program is not currently known, and will change throughout the ATM Program depending on the market conditions and the relevant time that each respective offer of shares of common stock is made under the ATM Program.

The shares of common stock actually issued by 5EA under the ATM Program, and the price payable per share of common stock issued, will be disclosed to the ASX at the relevant times in the form of an Appendix 3G.

Further details regarding the ATM Program are set out in the Form 8-K and Prospectus Supplement lodged on the date of this Appendix 3B.
