LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Dear fellow Shareholder,

On 13 December 2023, Arrow Minerals Limited ( Company or Arrow ) announced a planned recapitalisation and Board restructure (together, the Proposal ) aimed at unlocking the potentially significant value of its Simandou North iron project in Guinea, West Africa.

Under this Proposal, Mr David Flanagan, the founder and formerly Managing Director of Atlas Iron Limited (ASX: AGO) and Executive Chair of Delta Lithium Limited (ASX: DLI) will be appointed Managing Director of Arrow. Pending his appointment as Managing Director, David will provide part-time consulting services to the Company, and will be entitled to receive an allotment of options by way of compensation, subject to shareholder approval.

As part of the Proposal, experienced director Mr Jeff Dowling will join Arrow as Non-Executive Chair. Mr Dowling’s previous roles include director of Atlas Iron and Chair of Sirius Resources (prior to its takeover by Independence Group). Mr Dowling is currently a Non-Executive Director at NRW, Fleetwood and S2 Resources. I will remain on the Board as Non-Executive Director alongside Non-Executive Director Mr Alwyn Vorster. Non-Executive Director, Dr Frazer Tabeart, will resign from the board on completion of the Recapitalisation.

If approved by Arrow Shareholders, the funding package under the Proposal introduces funding of up to $4m by way of a $3.5m two-tranche share Placement and a $500k Share Purchase Plan priced at $0.001 per share ( Recapitalisation ).

In addition, Arrow has reached agreement with the holders of its existing $1 million convertible notes in Arrow ( Convertible Notes ) whereby, subject to shareholder approval, the Convertible Note holders will convert $500,000 (50%) of the Convertible Notes into Arrow ordinary shares at a conversion price of $0.00125 per Share, being a 25% premium to the price of Shares offered under the Recapitalisation. The Convertible Note holders will also be entitled to receive an allotment of options as consideration for the early conversion.

Shareholders should be aware that Resolutions 2, 3, 7, 8, 9, 13 and 14 are inter-conditional and accordingly, if any of those Resolutions are not passed, the proposed Recapitalisation and Board restructure will not occur.

Further details regarding these arrangements, together with the shareholder resolutions required to authorise them, are set out in the Explanatory Statement accompanying the Notice of Meeting.

The involvement of such esteemed and successful directors on the Arrow Board, and the confidence shown through existing and new shareholders in the proposed capital raising, represents a genuine endorsement of the potential at the Company’s Simandou North iron project.

Your directors are unanimously of the view that the arrangements to recapitalise the Company and restructure the Board are in the best interests of shareholders, absent any superior proposal being presented.

The upcoming Meeting is critical to the future of Arrow. I encourage you to vote in favour of the Resolutions to be considered at the Meeting by submitting the attached proxy form by the due date of 10.00am (AWST) on 13 February 2024.

In the meantime, should you have any queries regarding the attached documents, please contact Arrow on +61 8 9383 3330

2. Action to be taken by Shareholders

Shareholders should read the Notice, including this Explanatory Memorandum, carefully before deciding how to vote on the Resolutions.

2.1 Proxies

A Proxy Form is enclosed with the Notice and this Explanatory Memorandum. This is to be used by Shareholders if they wish to appoint a representative (a "proxy") to vote in their place. All Shareholders are invited to attend the Meeting in person. All Shareholders are strongly encouraged to sign and return the Proxy Form to the Company in accordance with the instructions detailed in the Proxy Form. Lodgement of a Proxy Form will not preclude a Shareholder from attending and voting at the Meeting in person.

If a Shareholder appoints a body corporate as its proxy and the body corporate wishes to appoint an individual as its representative, the body corporate should provide that person with a certificate or letter executed in accordance with the Corporations Act authorising him or her to act as that body corporate’s representative. The authority may be sent to the Company or its share registry in advance of the Meeting or handed in at the Meeting when registering as a corporate representative.

By appointing the Chair as a proxy (or where the Chair becomes proxy by default), if the relevant Shareholder has not specified the way the Chair is to vote (or abstain) on one or more Resolutions, then by submitting the Proxy Form the Shareholder is considered to have provided the Chair with an express authorisation and direction for the Chair to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chair's intention on such Resolution or Resolutions.

Proxy Forms must be received by the Company no later than 10.00am (AWST) on Tuesday, 13 February 2024, being at least 48 hours before the Meeting. Proxy Forms received later than this time will be invalid.

The enclosed Proxy Form provides further details on appointing proxies and lodging Proxy Forms.

3. Inter-Conditional Resolutions

Resolutions 2, 3, 7, 8, 9, 13 and 14, being the Proposal Resolutions are inter-conditional and cannot be waived by the Board. Accordingly, if any the Proposal Resolutions are not approved by Shareholders, none of Resolutions 2, 3, 7, 8, 9, 13 and 14 will pass and the Proposal and other matters contemplated by the Proposal Resolutions will not proceed.

In addition, each of Resolutions 11 and 12 are conditional upon, but not inter-conditional with, the approval of the Proposal Resolutions. For the avoidance of any doubt, Resolutions 11 and 12 are not Proposal Resolutions.

4. Background to Recapitalisation and Board Restructure

4.1 Overview

On 13 December 2023, Arrow announced a planned recapitalisation and Board restructure (together, the Proposal ) aimed at unlocking the potentially significant value of its Simandou North iron project in Guinea, West Africa.

The Proposal is led by highly regarded iron ore executive Mr David Flanagan, the founder and formerly Managing Director of Atlas Iron Limited (ASX: AGO) and Executive Chair of Delta Lithium Limited (ASX: DLI), who is proposed to be appointed Managing Director. It is proposed that Mr Flanagan be appointed as Managing Director after the Meeting and in any event no later than 29 February 2024. Pending his commencement as Managing Director, Mr Flanagan has been engaged as part-time consultant to Arrow for the period until his appointment as Managing Director. As part of the consultancy agreement entered into between the Company and Mr Flanagan, Mr Flanagan has the right (subject to Shareholder approval, which is sought pursuant to Resolution 8) to be granted:

  • (a) 775,000,000 zero exercise price Options without vesting hurdles and expiring three years from the date of issue; and

  • (b) 90,000,000 zero exercise price Options (granted in three equal tranches) with vesting hurdles and expiring four years from the date of issue,

(the key terms of which are provided in Schedule 3).

All Shares issued on exercise of the Options proposed to be granted to Mr Flanagan (and/or his nominee(s)) will be subject to a six-month escrow period commencing from 12 December 2023.

Under the Proposal (which is subject to the various shareholder approvals sought at the Meeting), Arrow will undertake a recapitalisation to raise $4 million (before costs) ( Recapitalisation ) via:

  • (a) a $3.5 million two-tranche placement of new Shares at an issue price of $0.001 per Share comprising:

  • (i) 450,000,000 Shares issued to professional and sophisticated investors using the Company's existing Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity to raise $0.45 million ( Tranche 1 Placement ); and

  • (ii) 3,050,000,000 Shares proposed to be issued, subject to Shareholder approval, to professional and sophisticated investors to raise $3.05 million ( Tranche 2 Placement ), including the issue of an aggregate of 445,000,000 Shares to the following persons:

    • (A) 175,000,000 Shares to Mr David Flanagan (and/or his nominee(s)), the proposed Managing Director;

    • (B) 150,000,000 Shares to Mr Thomas McKeith (and/or his nominee(s)), the current Executive Chair;

    • (C) 100,000,000 Shares to Mr Alwyn Vorster (and/or his nominee(s)), a Director; and

    • (D) 20,000,000 Shares to Dr Frazer Tabeart (and/or his nominee(s)), a Director; and

  • (b) a share purchase plan, under which Shareholders may apply for up to $30,000 worth of new Shares at an issue price of $0.001 per Share (the same price as the Shares offered under the Placement) via the issue of up to 500,000,000 Shares ( SPP Shares ) to raise $500,000 (before costs) ( SPP Offer ). Shareholders who had a registered address in Australia or New Zealand recorded on the Company's share register at 5:00pm (AWST) on 12 December 2023 ( Eligible Shareholders ) will have the opportunity to apply for SPP Shares.

Refer to the Company's ASX announcements on, and after, 13 December 2023 for further details regarding the Proposal.

4.2 Placement

The Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued on 22 December 2023 and the Tranche 2 Placement Shares are intended to be issued on or around 19 February 2024 following Shareholder approval pursuant to Resolutions 2 to 6 (inclusive) (as applicable).

The investors who have participated, or intend to participate, in the Placement comprise institutional and sophisticated investors ( Placement Participants ), who, other than the related parties that intend to participate in the Placement, were identified by the lead manager for the Placement, Euroz Hartleys Limited (ACN 104 195 057) ( Lead Manager ). Sternship Advisers Pty Ltd (ACN 619 280 910) ( Corporate Adviser ) provided financial advisory services in connection with the Recapitalisation.

4.3 Shareholder Support for the Proposal and Escrow Arrangements

The Company is pleased to have the strong support of its major shareholders Bernadine Holdings Pty Ltd (ACN 105 718 269) ( Bernadine Holdings ) and Gengold Resource Capital Pty Ltd (ACN 609 201 854), who have each confirmed that they will vote or cause to be voted all of the Shares held by them up to an aggregate of 19.99% at the Meeting in favour of all the Resolutions (including all of the Proposal Resolutions).

Bernadine Holdings subscribed for $435,000 in the Placement and agreed in respect of its Shares held on a pre-and post-Placement basis to an escrow arrangement with Arrow, pursuant to which:

  • (a) half of its existing Shares will be voluntarily escrowed for 6 months from 12 December 2023; and

  • (b) all new Shares it receives in the Placement will be voluntarily escrowed for 18 months, in each case from 12 December 2023.

The escrow restrictions detailed above may be released upon any Change in Control Event or as may be required by law.

4.4 Share Purchase Plan

The SPP Offer is expected to open on or around Thursday, 15 February 2024 and is expected to close on Tuesday, 5 March 2024. Eligible Shareholders will be able to subscribe under the SPP Offer for parcels of SPP Shares valued at $2,500, $5,000, $7,500, $10,000, $15,000, $20,000, or $30,000. The issue of SPP Shares under the SPP Offer is subject to Shareholder approval (which is being sought pursuant to Resolution 7). The SPP Offer is not proposed to be underwritten. The Directors reserve their right, subject to the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules, to vary the closing date without prior notice, including closing the Offer early.

The Company reserves the rights to scale back applications (in whole or in part) pursuant to the SPP Offer (or withdraw the SPP Offer). Any scale back will be applied to the extent and in the manner the Company sees fit, which may include taking into account a number of factors such as the size of an Eligible Shareholder's shareholding at the record date for the SPP Offer, the extent to which the Eligible Shareholder has sold or purchased shares since the record date for the SPP Offer, whether the Eligible Shareholder may have multiple registered holdings, the date on which the application was made, and the total applications received from Eligible Shareholders.

Shareholders should refer to the Share Purchase Plan Booklet for further details of the SPP Offer which is expected to be sent to Shareholders on or around Thursday, 15 February 2024.

4.5 Board Restructure

The Proposal will include the following changes to the Board:

  • (a) Mr David Flanagan will be appointed as Managing Director of the Company;

  • (b) experienced director Mr Jeff Dowling will be appointed as non-executive Chair of the Company. Mr Dowling has had previous roles as a director of Atlas Iron Limited and chair

P a g e | 17

of Sirius Resources NL (ASX: SIR) and currently serves non-executive directorships at NRW, Fleetwood and S2 Resources;

  • (c) current executive Chair Mr Thomas McKeith will become a non-executive Director; and

  • (d) Dr Frazer Tabeart will resign from the Board on completion of the Recapitalisation.

  • Mr Alwyn Vorster will remain as non-executive Director.

Each of Messrs Dowling and McKeith (and/or their respective nominee(s)) will be granted 100,000,000 zero exercise price Options without vesting hurdles and expiring three years from the date of issue, subject to Shareholder approval pursuant to Resolutions 9 and 10. All Shares issued on exercise of the Options proposed to be granted to Mr McKeith (and/or his nominee(s)) will be subject to a six-month escrow period from the issue of those Shares, commencing from 12 December 2023. Terms of the Options proposed to be granted to Messrs Dowling and McKeith (and/or their respective nominee(s)) are provided in Schedule 4 and Schedule 5, respectively.

4.6 Convertible Notes

In August 2020, the Company completed the issue of 1,000,000 Arrow convertible notes at an issue price of $1 per convertible note ( Convertible Notes ) to raise $1,000,000 (before costs), having received Shareholder approval for the issue at the Company’s general meeting held on 19 August 2020.

In connection with the Proposal, Arrow and the holders of the Convertible Notes ( Noteholders ) agreed that the Noteholders will:

  • (a) convert $500,000 in Convertible Notes (being 50% of all Convertible Notes on issue) into Shares at a conversion price of $0.00125 per Share, being a 25% premium to the price of Shares offered under the Recapitalisation, for an issue by the Company of 400,000,000 Shares (subject to Shareholder approval which is sought under Resolution 13); and

  • (b) as consideration for the early exercise detailed above, be granted 778,000,000 zero exercise price Options on the terms provided in Schedule 6 (subject to Shareholder approval which is sought under Resolution 14).

The agreements with the Noteholders provide that the Company will retain $500,000 in respect of irrevocable bank guarantees to be provided to each Noteholder to secure the repayment of the remaining Convertible Notes (the terms of which have not been altered).

4.7 Indicative Use of Funds

The proceeds from the Recapitalisation will be applied towards:

  • (a) exploration activities at the Simandou North Iron Project, including but not limited to drilling, geophysical surveys and mapping, environmental studies and metallurgical studies;

  • (b) $500,000 in irrevocable bank guarantees for each Noteholder to secure amounts owing pursuant to the balance of the remaining 500,000 convertible notes at maturity (if not converted prior);

  • (c) maintaining interests in the Company’s Burkina Faso projects; and

  • (d) costs of the transaction and general working capital purposes.

The Board reserves the right to reallocate funds for alternative purposes, as may be deemed necessary by the Board.

4.8 Capital structure on completion of the Recapitalisation

On the basis that Arrow obtains the applicable Shareholder approvals and completes the Recapitalisation, Arrow’s indicative capital structure is estimated to be as follows:

P a g e | 18

**TOTAL2 ** 7,583,795,096 2,239,593,941 51,000,000

Notes:

  1. Includes the issue of 450,000,000 Tranche 1 Placement Shares.

  2. In addition, there will be 500,000 Convertible Notes with a face value of A$1.00 maturing on 15 June 2024.

5. Resolution 1 – Ratify issue of Shares to institutional and sophisticated investors under the Tranche 1 Placement

5.1 Background

Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder ratification and approval pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.4 (and for all other purposes) for the issue of the 450,000,000 Shares to the Placement Participants that participated in the Tranche 1 Placement. The Shares were offered at the same issue price as the Tranche 2 Placement Shares (being $0.001 per Share), to raise $450,000 (before costs). The 435,000,000 Tranche 1 Placement Shares issued to Bernadine Holdings are subject to voluntary escrow for 18 months (refer to Section 4.3 for further details).

Refer to Sections 4.1 to 4.3 for further details regarding the Placement.

Resolution 1 is an ordinary resolution.

The Chair intends to exercise all available undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1.

5.2 Listing Rule 7.4

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 12month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that period ( 15% Placement Capacity ).

The issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares does not fall within any of these exceptions, and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up all of the Company's 15% Placement Capacity 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 issue of the Tranche 1 Placement 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.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. To this end, Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder ratification and approval for the Tranche 1 Placement Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 (and for all other purposes).

If Resolution 1 is passed, the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares will be excluded in calculating

P a g e | 19

the Company’s 15% Placement Capacity in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Tranche 1 Placement Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% Placement Capacity in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares.

5.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.5

The following information in relation to Resolution 1 is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.5:

  • (a) The Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued to the Placement Participants, being institutional and sophisticated investors identified by the Lead Manager as detailed in Section 3 under the Tranche 1 Placement. No investor under the Tranche 1 Placement was a related party of the Company, a member of the Company's Key Management Personnel or an associate of any of those persons. Refer to Section 3 for further details of the Placement Participants.

  • (b) The Tranche 1 Placement Shares comprised the issue of 450,000,000 Shares pursuant to the Company's placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1, ratification of which is sought pursuant to Resolution 1.

  • (c) The Tranche 1 Placement Shares are fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company, and rank equally in all respects with the Company’s existing Shares on issue.

  • (d) The Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued on 22 December 2023.

  • (e) The Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued for an issue price of $0.001 per Share, raising a total of $450,000 (before costs).

  • (f) The Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued to raise funds for the use of proceeds detailed in Section 4.7.

  • (g) The Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued pursuant to placement letters pursuant to which subscribers under the Tranche 1 Placement agreed to be issued Tranche 1 Placement Shares at an issue price of $0.001 per Tranche 1 Placement Share. In connection with the Placement, the Company also entered into the escrow arrangement with Bernadine Holdings described in Section 4.3.

  • (h) A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice for Resolution 1.

5.4 Board recommendation

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.

6. Resolution 2 – Issue of Shares to institutional and sophisticated investors under the Tranche 2 Placement

6.1 Background

Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder approval pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1 (and for all other purposes) to issue 2,605,000,000 Shares to the Placement Participants that propose to participate in the issue of Tranche 2 Placement Shares pursuant to Resolution 2. Those Shares will be offered at the same issue price as the Tranche 1 Placement Shares (being $0.001 per Share), to raise approximately $2.60 million (before costs).

Refer to Sections 4.1 to 4.3 for further details regarding the Placement.

Resolution 2 is an ordinary resolution and is subject to the approval of the other Proposal Resolutions.

P a g e | 20

The Chair intends to exercise all available undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 2.

6.2 Listing Rule 7.1

A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is provided in Section 5.2.

The issue of the Shares pursuant to Resolution 2 does not fall within any of the exceptions to Listing Rule 7.1 (and it exceeds the 15% Placement Capacity) and is conditional upon Shareholder approval (which is being sought pursuant to Resolution 2).

If Resolution 2 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Shares pursuant to Resolution 2 without using any of the Company's 15% Placement Capacity. In addition, the issue of those Shares will be excluded from the calculation of the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 2 is not passed, the issue of the Shares pursuant to Resolution 2 will not proceed. Resolution 2 is inter-conditional with the other Proposal Resolutions and if not approved, the Proposal will not proceed.

6.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3

The following information in relation to Resolution 2 is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3:

  • (a) The Shares pursuant to Resolution 2 are proposed to be issued to sophisticated and professional investors as detailed in Section 3 under the Tranche 2 Placement.

Refer to Section 3 for further details of the Placement Participants.

  • (b) The Tranche 2 Placement Shares comprise 2,605,000,000 Shares as part of the Tranche 2 Placement.

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Shares pursuant to Resolution 3 without using any of the Company's 15% Placement Capacity. In addition, the issue of those Shares will be excluded from the calculation of the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 3 is not passed, the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares pursuant to Resolution 3 will not proceed. Resolution 3 is inter-conditional with the other Proposal Resolutions and if not approved, the Proposal will not proceed.

On 13 December 2023, the Company announced its intention appoint Mr David Flanagan as Managing Director. This appointment is intended to occur after the Meeting. The Company is relying on Listing Rule 10.12, Exception 12, which provides that an issue of Equity Securities under an agreement or transaction between an entity and a person who would not otherwise be a related party but for the fact that they have reasonable grounds to believe that they are likely to become a related party in the future, to issue the Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Mr Flanagan (and/or his nominee(s)) and does not require Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.11 for the issue.

7.5 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3

  • (a) The Shares pursuant to Resolution 3 will be issued to Mr David Flanagan (and/or his nominee(s)) as detailed in Section 4 under the Tranche 2 Placement. Mr Flanagan is considered to be a "related party" of the Company, by virtue of him being a proposed Director.

P a g e | 24

7.6 Listing Rule 10.11

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed company must not issue or agree to issue Equity Securities to:

  • (a) a related party;

  • (b) a person who is, or was at any time in the six months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the company;

  • (c) a person who is, or was at any time in the six months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (10%+) holder in the company and who has nominated a director to the board of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so;

  • (e) a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in (a) to (d) is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders,

unless it obtains shareholder approval.

The issue of Shares to Messrs Thomas McKeith, Alwyn Vorster and Frazer Tabeart (and/or their respective nominee(s)), as Directors, falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1, as Messrs McKeith, Vorster and Tabeart are related parties of the Company, and do not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval to issue Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Mr McKeith (and/or his nominee(s)) under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11 (and for all other purposes).

In addition, the issue of the relevant Shares will be excluded from the calculation of the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

To the extent Resolutions 4 to 6 (inclusive) are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the relevant Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Messrs McKeith, Vorster and Tabeart (and/or his nominee(s)).

8. Resolution 7 – Issue of Shares under the Share Purchase Plan

  • (b) any Shareholder casting votes on the resolution will be excluded from participating in any SPP Offer shortfall.

Resolution 7 is an ordinary resolution and is subject to the approval of the other Proposal Resolutions.

The Chair intends to exercise all available undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 7.

P a g e | 26

8.2 Listing Rule 7.1

A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is provided in Section 5.2.

Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 5 provides an exception to Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of Shares pursuant to certain share purchase plans. However, the Company's proposed SPP Offer does not qualify for that exception (nor for Listing Rule 10.12 exception 4), because the issue price per SPP Share is less than 80% of the relevant 5-day volume weighted average market price ( VWAP ) of Shares provided by those exceptions (using the VWAP before the day the SPP Offer was announced,[1] and not forecasting what the VWAP will be prior to the issue of the SPP Shares).

Accordingly, the issue of the SPP Shares pursuant to Resolution 7 does not fall within any of the exceptions to Listing Rule 7.1 (and it exceeds the 15% Placement Capacity) and is conditional upon Shareholder approval (which is being sought pursuant to Resolution 7).

If Resolution 7 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the SPP Shares without using any of the Company's 15% Placement Capacity. In addition, the issue of the SPP will be excluded from the calculation of the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 7 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the SPP Shares. Resolution 7 is inter-conditional with the other Proposal Resolutions and if not approved, the Proposal will not proceed.

8.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3

The following information in relation to Resolution 7 is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3:

  • (a) The SPP Shares will be issued to Eligible Shareholders who participate in the SPP Offer.

  • (b) The maximum number of SPP Shares that the Company proposes to issue to Eligible Shareholders under the SPP Offer is 500,000,000 SPP Shares pursuant to Resolution 7.

  • (c) The SPP Shares proposed to be issued will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company and will rank equally in all respects with the Company’s existing Shares on issue.

  • (d) The SPP Shares are proposed to be issued no later than three months following the date of the Meeting.

  • (e) The SPP Shares proposed to be issued will have an issue price of $0.001 per Share.

  • (f) The SPP Shares pursuant to Resolution 7 are proposed to be issued for the use of proceeds detailed in Section 4.7.

  • (g) The SPP Shares are to be offered under a share purchase plan offer booklet. Refer to the Company's ASX announcements dated on, and after, 13 December 2023, and the Company Share Purchase Plan Booklet once released, for further details.

  • (h) The Company obtained a standard waiver from ASX in respect of Listing Rule 7.3.9 to permit Resolution 7 not to include a voting exclusion statement that excludes any person who proposes to participate in the SPP Offer.

8.4 Board recommendation

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 7.

1 The issue price of SPP Shares is a 35% discount to the 5 day VWAP of Shares calculated over the last five days on which sales in Shares were recorded before the day on which the SPP was announced.

The Incentive Options to be granted to Messrs Flanagan and McKeith (and/or their respective nominee(s) will be subject to the escrow periods detailed in Section4.

The Company has considered the remuneration structures of several of its ASX listed peer

P a g e | 28

companies to determine a suitable quantum and structure of an incentive-based remuneration plan for management and members of the Board. As a result of this review the Company believes that the grant of the Incentive Options is a fair and reasonable incentive-based remuneration package.

The Incentive Options are designed to align the Company’s key personnel with growing shareholder value, being one of the key business objectives of the Company over the next three years.

The objective of the grant of the Incentive Options is to motivate and retain directors. It is considered that the grant of the Incentive Options will provide the participants with the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company. Under the Company's circumstances, the Company considers that incentives to directors through the grant of Incentive Options is cost effective and efficient for the Company.

Mr Flanagan's proposed incentives were negotiated between the Company and Mr Flanagan on an arm's length basis and remain subject to Shareholder approval. Mr Flanagan is a person whom the Board considers to be uniquely qualified to take the Company forward to execute its evolving business plans and is therefore desirous of attracting Mr Flanagan to the role of Managing Director. As such, the Board believes that the Tranche A DF Options, together with Mr Flanagan's other proposed incentives, represent appropriate incentives that will align his potential compensation with his expected contribution to the overall business performance, growth in shareholder value, sustainable development and good corporate governance of the Company. It is for these reasons that the Board considers it appropriate to put such incentives before shareholders to consider and, if thought fit, approve. Consequently, the Board is of the view that the proposed grant of Tranche A DF Options is market competitive and appropriate in the circumstances.

The Board recognises the importance of retaining all key personnel in the business and providing the appropriate incentives in order to deliver the Company’s objectives. The Board believes David Flanagan’s role as Managing Director will be critical to delivering these objectives.

Refer to Sections 4.1 and 4.5 for further details regarding the proposed grant of the Incentive Options. Resolutions 8 to 10 (inclusive) are ordinary resolutions.

Resolutions 8 and 9 are subject to the approval of the other Proposal Resolutions.

The Chair intends to exercise all available undirected proxies in favour of Resolutions 8 to 10 (inclusive).
