1 RESOLUTION 1 – APPROVAL OF ISSUE OF CONVERTIBLE NOTES

  • 1.1 On 20 December 2024 and 17 February 2025 the Company issued a total of $550,000 in convertible notes (2,750,000) (Notes) due to expire on 10 October 2026 (unless previously purchased, cancelled, redeemed or converted). The Notes carry a fixed coupon of 10% compounded monthly for the term and are convertible into Company shares at a conversion price of $0.20c per share. The closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares on the ASX on 17 February 2025 was $0.15 per share.

(Additional consideration for the issue of the Notes in the form of options expired on 17 August 2025).

The proceeds of the Notes were used to pay for the ongoing development and exploration of the Company’s tenements and for working capital.

Article 7 of the Constitution of the Company provides that the Directors of the Company may create and issue convertible securities on such terms as the Directors may decide.

Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a listed company may issue or agree to issue shares or other equity securities (such as convertible notes) in aggregate up to 15% of the number of its fully paid ordinary shares within a 12 month period without shareholder approval.

9 | P a g e

The Company issued the notes to raise $550,000 within the Company’s 15% capacity without shareholder approval.

Pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4, Resolution 1 seeks shareholder approval to ratify the issue of that number of convertible notes (2,750,000) to renew the Company’s ability and flexibility to issue new securities up to the 15% capacity specified by Listing Rule 7.1 in the forthcoming year.

The following information in relation to the Notes is provided to shareholders under ASX Listing Rules 7.3, 7.4 and 7.5:

On 20 December 2024 the Company entered into a convertible loan agreement with Mr Ian Mitchell (“Lender”) who is a Director of the Company. The Loan is for $350,000, at an interest rate of 10%pa, for a term commencing on 20 December 2024 and ending on 1 October 2026. The Loan is unsecured.

On 7 February 2025 the Company entered into a further convertible loan agreement with Mr Ian Mitchell (“Lender”) who is a Director of the Company. The Loan is for $200,000, at an interest rate of 10% pa, for a term commencing on 20 December 2024 and ending on 1 October 2026. The Loan is unsecured (together the “Loans”).

The balance of the Loans shown above includes interest accrued to 30 June 2025 of $25,753.

Under the terms of the Loans, the Loan may be converted to shares:

  • (a) By the Lender during the period commencing on 20 December 2024 and ending on 20 July 2025, for a conversion price of $0.20 per share. If exercised during this period the Company will issue to the Lender two options for every five shares delivered, exercisable at $0.40 per share and expiring 26 July 2026.

  • (b) By either party after 20 July 2025 until the end of the Loans.

Under the terms of the Loans, the Loans may be converted to shares:

Any issue of Shares to the Lender is conditional on shareholder approval. In the event that shareholders do not approve the issue, the Loans are repayable in cash.

Directors determined that the terms of the Loans are equal to or better than if the Lender and the Company were dealing at arms-length.

(a) The number of Securities Issued

The total number of securities issued was 2,750,000 Notes which are convertible to the Company’s ordinary shares at a conversion price of $0.20 each (550,000 ordinary fully paid shares in the Company).

The number of ordinary shares to be issued on full conversion of the Notes is 2,750,000.

10 | P a g e

(b) The Date of Issue

The Notes were issued on 20 December 2024 and 17 February 2025. Issues of ordinary shares on conversion of the Notes will occur progressively depending on when and if the Notes are converted.

  • (c) The Price at which the Securities were Issued

The Notes were issued for a subscription price of $550,000 in total.

  • (d) The Name of the Person to whom the Company Issued the Securities and who can convert them

Ian Mitchell

  • (e) The Terms of the Securities

The key terms and conditions of the Notes are summarized above.

  • (f) The Use of the Funds Raised

The proceeds of the Notes were used to pay for the ongoing development and exploration of the Company’s tenements and for working capital.

2. RESOLUTION 2 - RATIFICATION OF PRIOR SHARE ISSUE

On 7 May 2025, the Company issued 10,714,285 Shares at an issue price of $0.14 each, to two sophisticated and professional investors to raise $1,500,000 (“Placement Shares”). The offerees were KSF FUND NO 2 PTY LTD and ANNE MARIE KARREMAN.

The Company issued the Placement Shares using its existing placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A. None of the recipients of the placement shares were related parties or associates of the Company.

Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Placement Shares.

Listing Rule 7.1 limits the number of equity securities that the Company may issue in any 12-month period to 15% of the number of shares on issue at the start of this period (“Placement Capacity”).

Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not beach Listing Rule 7.1) those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.1.

The issue of the Placement Shares effectively used the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without

11 | P a g e

Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date of their issue.

If shareholders pass this resolution, the issue of the Placement Shares will no longer use up a portion of the Company’s Placement Capacity, meaning the Company will have an increase ability to issue equity securities without seeking Shareholder approval.

If shareholders do not pass this resolution, the issue of the Placement Shares will continue to use up a portion of the Company’s Placement Capacity until that date that is 12 months from their date of issue, and the Company will therefore have a reduced ability to issue equity securities without seeking Shareholder approval until that time.

  • a) Listing Rule 7.5

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to Item 2:

  • (i) the shares were issued to sophisticated and professional investors determined in consultation with the directors. None of the subscribers were a related party of the Company or an associate of any of them, or a party to whom an issue of equity securities requires Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.11;

  • (ii) 10,714,285 shares were issued;

  • (iii) the 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;

  • (iv) the shares were issued on 7 May 2025;

  • (v) the shares were issued at an issue price of $0.14 each;

  • (vi) the Company received $1,500,000 from the issue of the shares, which it is using to provide capital for its mineral exploration program and for corporate and administrative expenses, and working capital; and

  • (vii) the shares were not issued pursuant to an agreement.

3. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE SHARES TO QBF NO. 1 PTY LIMITED (ACN 051674033) AS TRUSTEE OF QIC CRITICAL MINERALS AND BATTERY TECHNOLOGY FUND

12 | P a g e

3.1 INDICATED MINERAL RESOURCE

On 2 October 2024, the Company announced a Measured Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) of 71.8Mt @ 1,732.7ppm Monazite Equivalent calculated using a 700ppm MzEq lower cut-off grade for the Project. The mineralisation is from surface to around 12m, and is amenable to low-cost open pit mining methods. The MRE was developed from only 4.5% of the available anomaly area at Sandy Mitchell, with 87.04 km² available based on an Exploration Target estimated for Sandy Mitchell of 1.3 billion tonnes to 1.5 billion tonnes @ 1250 to 1490 ppm monazite equivalent. On 8 October 2024, Ark submitted a mining lease Application covering 406 hectares of the Sandy Mitchell Rare Earth and Heavy Mineral deposit. The area under application covers the acreage that forms the basis of the Measured Resource Estimate.

3.2 CONSIDERATION FOR THE CHARGE AND SHARE PLACEMENT

On 25 August 2025, the Company announced a $4.5M investment by QBF No 1 Pty Ltd as Trustee of QIC Critical Minerals and Battery Technology Fund to advance the Company’s development of the Project.

3.3 INVESTMENT

The investment is in two parts:

  • (a) Firstly a first fixed charge over the project tenements to secure $4M in consideration of which Ark will pay to QIC a 2% gross royalty on all funds received from production from the project tenements (or any substituted tenements) for the life of the project.

  • (b) A placement of $500,000 in value of the Company’s ordinary fully paid shares at 0.167 cents per share.

The placement of the shares is subject to shareholder approval by this Extraordinary General Meeting.

13 | P a g e

3.4 LISTING RULE 7.1

Subject to a number of exceptions:

  • (a) Listing Rule 7.1 limits the number of equity securities a company can issue without the approval of its shareholder over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid up ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of the period.

  • (b) Listing Rule 10.11 prohibits the issue of securities to related parties and certain others where the relationship between the entity being issued securities and the Company is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue should be approved by security holders), and their associates.

Securities issues and agreements that are approved by Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 are not included in calculating an entity’s 15% capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Subject to a number of exceptions Listing Rule 7.1 limits the number of equity securities a company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid up ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of the period.

Securities issued and agreements that are approved by Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 are not included in calculating an entity’s 15% capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Without the approval sought in this resolution, the Company would be limited by the operation of Listing Rule 7.1 to issuing only 8,316,966 Shares. This would not be sufficient to permit the Company to issue the Subscription Shares to QCMBTF under the Subscription Agreement.

The Company is therefore seeking the approval of its Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 to issue the Subscription Shares to QCMBTF (or its nominee or custodian) in accordance with the Subscription Agreement.

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to issue the Subscription Shares to QCMBTF (or its nominee or custodian) under the Subscription Agreement.

If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Company will not be able to issue the Subscription Shares to QCMBTF (or its nominee or custodian) under the Subscription Agreement. Either party to the Subscription Agreement will be entitled to terminate the agreement for failure to obtain shareholder approval of the transaction and the investment by QCMBTF in the Company would be unlikely to proceed.

The following information in relation to the Shares is provided to shareholders under ASX Listing Rule 7.3:

  • (a) The Subscription Shares will be allotted to QCMBTF (or its nominee or custodian).

14 | P a g e

  • (b) The total number of Subscription Shares for which approval is sought is 2,994,012 Shares.

  • (c) The Subscription Shares to be issued will be issued on the date that is 10 Business Days after satisfaction of the condition precedent to completion under the Subscription Agreement (as described below).

  • (d) Each Subscription Share will be issued for the Subscription Price of $0.167 per share.

  • (e) The purpose of the issue, including the intended use of funds, is as set out above.

  • (f) The Subscription Shares will be issued under and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Subscription Agreement. A summary of the material terms of the Subscription Agreement is as follows:

  • Completion of the Subscription Agreement is conditional on the Company’s shareholders approving the transaction under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • On settlement of the Subscription Agreement, the Company will issue and allot the Subscription Shares to QCMBTF (or its nominee or custodian), and QCMBTF will pay the Subscription Price to the Company.

  • The Subscription Shares issues will rank equally in all respects with all other Shares on issue at the time the Subscription Shares are issued.

3.5 DIRECTORS’ RECOMMENDATIONS

The Directors of Ark are each of the view that the information provided and the results of the Company’s own geological and metallurgical due diligence justify the proposed further planned expenditure in relation to the tenements and they each believe that the expenditure requirements to develop the tenements are reasonable considering current market conditions, the otherwise likely cost of further capital raising and ensuring a degree of certainty for the conduct of continuing development and mining of the Sandy Mitchell tenements.

Each director of Ark recommends that shareholders vote in favour of the proposed resolution and intends to vote all the shares over which he has control in favour thereof.

(a) Capital Structure

  • After the issue and allotment of the shares the capital structure of the Company will be as follows:
Ordinary Shares
Unlisted Options
Placement to QBF No 1 Pty Ltd
Total
66,160,698
5,267,317
2,994,012
74,422,027

15 | P a g e

(b) No Change to Board of Directors

It is not intended that the composition of the Board of Directors will change as a result of the proposed placement of shares or in the foreseeable future thereafter.
