Terms used in this Explanatory Memorandum are defined below in Section 5.
1. Resolution 1 – Ratification of Prior Share Placement under 7.1
1.1 Background
As announced to the ASX, on 30 June 2025, the Company issued 556,451,620 Shares pursuant to the placement to unrelated institutional, sophisticated or otherwise exempt investors that fall within one or more of the classes of exemptions specified in section 708 of the Corporations Act ( Placement ) without prior Shareholder approval under the Company’s 15% annual capacity as set out in Listing Rule 7.1.
In accordance with Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.4, to restore the Company’s capacity to issue Shares it is proposed that Shareholders ratify the issue of Shares as detailed below.
1.2 Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.4
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue during any 12 month period any Equity Securities, or other securities with rights to conversion to equity (such as an Option), if the number of those securities exceeds 15% of the number of securities in the same class at the commencement of that 12 month period ( 15% Capacity ).
ASX Listing Rule 7.4 allows the Shareholders of a listed Company to approve the 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 into the future for matters including capitalising on minor business development opportunities in the uranium sector, enhancing work efforts on the Samphire Project development assessment and approval process and expanding exploration drilling programs without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1.
To this end, Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder approval to the issue of securities under the Placement and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4.
The following information is provided in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5:
| 7.5.1 | Name of persons to whom the Securities were issued |
The Company issued the shares under the Placement to a range of unrelated institutional, sophisticated or otherwise exempt investors that fall within one or more of the classes of exemptions specified in section 708 of the Corporations Act (Placement Shareholders). The Placement Shareholders were engaged through the joint lead managers - Bell Potter and Taylor Collison who sought expressions of interest to participate in the Placement. For the purposes of ASX Guidance Note 21, none of the Placement Participants are: • a related party of the Company; • members of the Company’s Key Management Personnel; |
|---|---|---|
Page 7 of 14
Explanatory Memorandum
| • an adviser of the Company; or • an associate of any of the above, Macquarie Group Limited and its controlled bodies corporate (Macquarie) were a substantial holder of the Company as at the date of the Placement (holding 5.05%) and participated in the Placement for an amount of $35,978 and 1,160,570 shares. Aside from Macquarie no other Placement Participants are considered to be “material investors” for the purposes of ASX Guidance Note 21, paragraph 7.4. The Shares were issued under a Share Placement Mandate with Bell Potter Securities Ltd and Taylor Collison Limited which was on market standard terms with a 6% Management and Selling Fee. |
||
|---|---|---|
| 7.5.2 | Number and class of Securities allotted | 556,451,620 Shares |
| 7.5.3 | Terms of the Securities. | Ranking equally with all other Shares on issue |
| 7.5.4 | Date on which the securities were issued | 30 June 2025 |
| 7.5.5 | Price at which the Securities were issued | $0.031 per Share |
| 7.5.6 | Use of the funds: | (a) Progressing the Samphire Project from exploration to development by: • Field Recovery Trial – allowance for any extended testing if required • Commencing Feasibility study • Initiation of Mining Lease approvals (b) Exploration and Resource drilling through: • Land Access negotiations • Samphire Resource Extension - Blackbush south and Plumbush • Big Lake discovery drilling (c) Working Capital and business development (d) Capital raising costs. |
| 7.5.7 | If the securities were issued under an agreement, summary of the material terms |
The Placement Shares were issued under a placement acceptance letter that contains standard terms for a placement of shares and attaching options. |
| 7.5.8 | Voting exclusion statement | A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice of Meeting for Resolution 1. |

Explanatory Memorandum
1.3 Outcome for voting for and against the Resolution
If Resolution 1 is passed, the Shares issued to Placement Shareholders will be excluded from the Company’s 15% Capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1, maintaining the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue of the Shares pursuant to the Placement.
If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Shares issued to Placement Shareholders will be included in the Company’s 15% Capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1, decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Shares pursuant to the Placement to a negligible number. Shareholder approval (requiring a further general meeting and incurring the associated costs) would then be required to enable the Company to capitalise on minor business development opportunities or to accelerate execution of its business plan.
1.4 Directors’ recommendation
The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.
2. Resolution 2 – Approval to issue Options under the Placement
2.1 Background
As announced to the ASX, on 30 June 2025, and referred to in section 1, the Company issued 556,451,620 Shares pursuant to the placement to unrelated professional, sophisticated or otherwise exempt investors that fall within one or more of the classes of exemptions specified in section 708 of the Corporations Act ( Placement ) without prior Shareholder approval under the Company’s 15% annual capacity as set out in Listing Rule 7.1.
The Placement Shareholders were offered one option for every two shares subscribed for. The options were not covered by the Company’s 15% capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 and were therefore subject to Shareholder approval.
2.2 Listing Rule 7.1
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue during any 12 month period any Equity Securities, or other securities with rights to conversion to equity (such as an Option), if the number of those securities exceeds 15% of the number of securities in the same class at the commencement of that 12 month period ( 15% Capacity ).
The proposed issue of the Options pursuant to the Placement do not fall within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2. It therefore requires the approval of the Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
Resolution 2 seeks the required Shareholder approval for the proposed issue of the Options offered under the terms of the Placement, to Placement Shareholders under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.
2.3 Outcome for voting for and against the Resolution
If Resolution 2 is passed, the Company will be able to issue 278,225,810 Options to Placement Shareholders.
If Resolution 2 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the 278,225,810 Options to Placement Shareholders.
2.4 Information for Listing Rule 7.3
For the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3, the Company provides the following information:
7.3.1 Allottees of Equity Securities The Options under the Placement will be issued to Placement Shareholders.

Option holders do not participate in any dividends unless the Options are exercised and the resultant Shares of the Company are issued prior to the record date to determine entitlements to the dividend.

In the event of any reorganisation (including consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return) of the issued capital of the Company:
-
(a) the number of Options, the Exercise Price of the Options, or both will be reorganised (as appropriate) in a manner consistent with the ASX Listing Rules as applicable at the time of reorganisation, but with the intention that such reorganisation will not result in any benefits being conferred on the holders of the Options which are not conferred on shareholders; and
-
(b) subject to the provisions with respect to rounding of entitlements as sanctioned by a meeting of shareholders approving a reorganisation of capital, in all other respects the terms for the exercise of the Options will remain unchanged.

-
The terms of the Options shall only be changed if holders (whose votes are not to be disregarded) of Shares in the Company approve of such a change. However, unless all necessary waivers of the ASX Listing Rules are obtained, the terms of the Options shall not be changed to reduce the Exercise Price, increase the number of Options or change any period for exercise of the Options.

-
Any holder of the Options (and the underlying ordinary shares) agrees for the benefit of the Company that the Options (and the underlying ordinary shares) may be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred only (a) to the Company, (b) outside the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the US Securities Act and local laws and regulations, (c) in a transaction that does not require registration under the US Securities Act and in compliance with applicable US state securities laws, or (d) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the US Securities Act

If you do not mark any of the boxes on the items of business, your proxy may vote as he or she chooses. If you mark more than one box on an item your vote on that item will be invalid.
