EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.

1. RESOLUTION 1 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF SHARES – LISTING RULE 7.1

1.1 General

On 30 January 2023, the Company issued 9,380,423 Shares to Mr Ally Mbarak Nahdi ( Nahdi Shares ) pursuant to the binding farm-in agreement with Mr Nahdi in respect to two licences ( Licenses ) with significant nickel sulphide exploration potential ( Luhuma Joint Venture ) as announced by the Company on 15 December 2021.

The Nahdi Shares were issued under the Agreement as part of the consideration for the Company acquiring a 65% interest in the Luhuma Joint Venture Project, as announced by the Company on 24 January 2023.

The Nahdi Shares were issued on the basis of a deemed issue price of $0.022500 calculated on the assumption that USD$150,000 converted into Australian Dollars ( AUD ) based on USD/AUD conversion rate of $0.7107 and on the five (5) trading days volume weighted average price ( VWAP ) prior to the issue of the Nahdi Shares.

The Luhuma Joint Venture agreement is structured as an option agreement but is in the nature of a farm-in agreement and has four earn-in stages, payable per licence. The material terms of the Luhuma Joint Venture agreement are as follows:

Material Term Summary
Grant of Option In consideration of payment by the Company to Mr Nahdi of the
consideration, Mr Nahdi grants the Company an irrevocable right
to earn and acquire up to an 80% participating interest in the

is to pay Mr Nahdi:

Stage 1 Earn-in:Adavale has the immediate and exclusive
right to explore and evaluate the licences for 12 months
upon payment of US$12,500 cash per Licence and
US$25,000 per Licence in fully paid ordinary Shares. During

prospectivity of the Licences and has earned in and acquired a

the date due for payment and remains in default for 30 days and if
Adavale is in breach of its obligations under the Luhuma Joint
Venture.

1.2 Listing Rule 7.1

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12-month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

The issue of the Nahdi Shares does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12-month period following the date of issue of the Nahdi Shares.

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

7

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Nahdi Shares.

Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Nahdi Shares.

1.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 1 is passed, the Nahdi Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Nahdi Shares.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Nahdi Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of issue of the Nahdi Shares.

1.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.5

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 1:

  • (a) the Nahdi Shares were issued to Mr Ally Mbarak Nahdi the holder of the Licenses the subject of the Luhuma Joint Venture;

  • (b) 9,380,423 Nahdi Shares were issued, and the Nahdi Shares issued were all fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares;

  • (c) the Nahdi Shares were issued on 30 January 2023;

  • (d) the Nahdi Shares were issued on the basis of a deemed issue price of $0.022500 per Share, which was calculated based on the assumption of USD$150,000 converted to A$ at 0.7107 and VWAP for the last five (5) trading days preceding the issue of the Nahdi Shares;

  • (e) the purpose of the issue of the Nahdi Shares was for the Company to acquire 65% of the Licenses under the Luhuma Joint Venture; and

  • (f) the Nahdi Shares were issued to Mr Nahdi under the Luhuma Joint Venture agreement. A summary of the material terms of the Luhuma Joint Venture agreement are set out in Section 1.1 above.

The issue of the Tranche 1 Notes does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Tranche 1 Notes.

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Tranche 1 Notes.

If Resolution 2 is not passed, the Tranche 1 Notes will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of issue of the Tranche 1 Notes.

Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Tranche 1 Notes.

  • (e) the Tranche 2 Notes will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX

13

waiver or modification of the Listing Rules) and it is intended that issue of the Tranche 2 Notes will occur on the same date;
