E X PL A N A T O RY S T AT E M E N T

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 ISSUE OF PLACEMENT SHARES

1.1 General

On 25 October 2024, the Company announced that it was undertaking a capital raising comprising a 2-for-1 pro rata renounceable entitlement offer of up to 2,090,031,968 Shares at $0.001 per Share to raise approximately $2.1 million before costs ( Entitlement Offer ), alongside a private placement of 118,000,000 Shares ( Placement Shares ) at the same offer price as the Shares offered under the Entitlement Offer to raise an additional $118,000 before costs ( Placement ).

Funds raised under the Entitlement Offer and Placement have and will be used to enable the Company to undertake exploration work on the Company’s projects, conduct technical assessment of other projects, defray costs of the Entitlement Offer and Placement and for general corporate and working capital.

Completion of the Placement occurred on 31 October 2024 and the Company issued 118,000,000 Placement Shares to sophisticated and professional investors ( Placement Participants ) without prior Shareholder approving using the Company’s available placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 1 is an ordinary resolution and seeks the approval of Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 to ratify the issue of the Placement Shares.

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 securities it had on issue at the start of that period.

The issue of the Placement 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, effectively uses up part of the 15% placement limit under 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 Placement Shares.

8

1.3 Listing Rule 7.4

Listing Rule 7.4 allows 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 be 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 effect of Shareholders passing Resolution 1 will be to allow the Company to retain the flexibility to issue Equity Securities in the future up to the 15% placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

1.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 1 is passed, 118,000,000 Placement Shares will be excluded from calculating the Company’s 15% limit under 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 their issue.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, 118,000,000 Placement Shares will continue to be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit under Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue or agree to issue without obtaining prior Shareholder approval, to the extent of 118,000,000 Equity Securities over the 12-month period following the date of issue of the Placement Shares.

1.5 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 the ratification of the issue of the Placement Shares:

  • (a) The Placement Shares were issued to the Placement Participants who are clients of Mahe Capital Pty Ltd ( Mahe ) acting as lead manager to the Placement, none of whom is a related party of the Company or a Material Investor except as noted below.

Mahe Capital Investments Pty Ltd, an associate of Mahe, subscribed for and was issued 78,000,000 Placement Shares under the Placement which constituted more than 1% of the Company’s capital structure at the time of issue.

  • (b) A total of 118,000,000 Placement Shares were issued on 31 October 2024 using the Company’s available placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • (c) The 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 Placement Shares were issued for an issue price of $0.001 per Placement Share.

  • (e) The proceeds from the issue of the Placement Shares have been or are intended to be applied towards costs of the Placement and general working capital.

  • (f) There are no other material terms to the agreement for the subscription of the Placement Shares.

  • (g) A voting exclusion statement is included in this Notice.

1.6 Directors’ Recommendation

The Board recommends Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.

2. RESOLUTION 2 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE LEAD MANAGER OPTIONS

2.1 General

Mahe and the Company entered into a lead manager mandate, pursuant to which Mahe was appointed to act as Lead Manager to the Entitlement Offer, details of which are set out in Section 1.1 above ( Mandate ).

Under the Mandate and subject to Shareholder approval, the Company has agreed to issue Mahe (or its nominees) 20,900,320 unquoted Options exercisable at $0.004 each on or before the date that is 3 years from the date of issue and otherwise subject to the terms and conditions in Schedule 1 ( Lead Manager Options ). The number of Lead Manager Options is calculated on the basis of 10 Options for every $1.00 raised under the Offers and, as announced on 22 November 2024, the Company raised a total of $2,090,032 (before costs) under the Offers.

Resolution 2 is an ordinary resolution and seeks the approval of Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 to approve the issue of the Lead Manager Options.

2.2 Summary of material terms of the Mandate

Pursuant to the Mandate, the Company will pay Mahe (or its nominees) the following:

  • (a) a cash fee of $60,000 (exclusive of GST);

  • (b) an amount equal to 1% of funds raised under the Offers;

  • (c) an amount equal to 5% of funds raised under the Shortfall Offer, including any additional amount that might be placed under the Company’s Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A placement capacity (if applicable); and

  • (d) subject to Shareholder approval, up to approximately 20,900,320 Lead Manager Options, on the basis of 10 Options for every $1.00 raised under the Offers.

The fees set out in items (a), (b) and (c) above were paid to Mahe in cash at completion of the Offers.

If Shareholders do not approve the issue of the Lead Manager Options at the Meeting, the Company will pay to Mahe the equivalent value of the Lead Manager Options in cash ( Cash Value ). The Cash Value will be calculated by multiplying the number of the Lead Manager Options by the calculated value of each Lead Manager Option using the Black & Scholes option valuation formula based on agreed variables.

The Mandate contains additional provisions, including warranties and indemnities in respect of the Company, which are considered standard for agreements of this nature.

2.3 Listing Rule 7.1

A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 1.2 above.

The effect of Shareholders passing Resolution 2 will be to allow the Company to retain the flexibility to issue Equity Securities in the future up to the 15% placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1, without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

10

2.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 2 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of up to 20,900,320 Lead Manager Options.

If Resolution 2 is not passed, the Company will be unable to proceed with the issue of the Lead Manager Options and will instead be required to pay the Cash Value to Mahe using funds from its existing cash reserves.

2.5 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.3

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of the Lead Manager Options:

  • (a) The Lead Manager Options will be issued to Mahe (or its nominees), none of whom is a related party of the Company or a Material Investor.

  • (b) A maximum of 20,900,320 Lead Manager Options will be issued.

  • (c) The Lead Manager Options will be unquoted Options exercisable at $0.004 each and expiring 3 years from date of issue. The Lead Manager Options are otherwise subject to the terms and conditions in Schedule 1.

  • (d) The Lead Manager Options will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting (or other such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules).

  • (e) The Lead Manager Options will be issued for nil cash consideration as they are being issued as part consideration for the provision of lead manager services by Mahe under the Mandate. Accordingly, no funds will be raised from the issue of the Lead Manager Options.

  • (f) A summary of the material terms of the Mandate, pursuant to which the Lead Manager Options will be issued is set out in Section 2.2 above.

  • (g) A voting exclusion statement is included in this Notice.

2.6 Directors’ Recommendation

The Board recommends Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

3. RESOLUTIONS 3 TO 5 (INCLUSIVE) – APPROVAL TO ISSUE DIRECTOR OPTIONS TO DIRECTORS

3.1 Background

The Company is proposing, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, to issue up to a total of 130,000,000 unquoted Options exercisable at $0.004 and expiring 5 years from the date of issue ( Director Options ) to Directors, James Eggins, Quinton de Klerk and Caroline Keats, pursuant to the Company’s Plan.

The Company has carefully considered key projects and business objectives and believes that offering the Director Options is an appropriate method of linking the Company’s current remuneration and incentive structure to align with the efforts of Directors in seeking to achieve growth of the Share price and in the creation of

11

Shareholder value. In addition, the Board also believes that incentivising with Director Options is a prudent means of conserving the Company's available cash reserves.

Resolutions 3 to 5 (inclusive) are ordinary resolutions and seek the approval of Shareholders pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.14 and sections 195(4) and 208 of the Corporations Act for the issue of the Director Options under the Plan to the Directors (and/or their respective nominees).

3.2 Listing Rule 10.14

Listing Rule 10.14 provides that an entity must not permit any of the following persons to acquire Equity Securities under an employee incentive scheme without the approval of its Shareholders:

  • (a) a director of the entity (Listing Rule 10.14.1);

  • (a) an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rule 10.14.1 (Listing Rule 10.14.2); and

  • (b) a person whose relationship with the entity or a person referred to in Listing Rule 10.14.1 or 10.14.2 is such that, in ASX's opinion, the acquisition should be approved by Shareholders.

The proposed issue of the Director Options falls within Listing Rule 10.14.1 (or Listing Rule 10.14.2 if a Director elects for the Director Options to be issued to their nominee) and therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.14.

Approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of Director Options as approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.14. Accordingly, the issue of Director Options to the Directors (and/or their respective nominees) will not be included in the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity in Listing Rule 7.1 or the maximum permitted number of Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.2, exception 13(b).

The effect of Shareholders passing Resolution 3 to 5 (inclusive) will be to allow the Company to issue the Director Options to the Directors (and/or their respective nominees) as part of their remuneration package and in the proportions listed in Section 3.4(c) below.

3.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If any or all of Resolutions 3 to 5 (inclusive) are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue and the relevant Director (and/or their nominees) will be issued the Director Options under that Resolution.

If any or all of Resolutions 3 to 5 (inclusive) are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue and the relevant Director (and/or their nominee) will not be issued the Director Options under that Resolution and the Company will look for alternative forms to incentivise the Director in the medium to long-term, including but not limited to payment of cash subject to the requirements of the Constitution, Corporations Act and Listing Rules.

Resolutions 3 to 5 (inclusive) are not conditional on each other, and Shareholders may approve one or all of those Resolutions (in which case, the Director Options the subject

12

of the relevant Resolution(s) will be issued), even though Shareholders have not approved all of these Resolutions.

3.4 Specific information required by Listing Rule 10.15

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 10.15, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of the Director Options:

  • (a) The Director Options will be issued to:

  • (i) James Eggins pursuant to Resolution 3;

  • (ii) Quinton de Klerk pursuant to Resolution 4; and

Section 195 of the Corporations Act

Section 195(1) of the Corporations Act prohibits a director of a public company who has a material personal interest in a matter that is being considered at a meeting of directors from being present while the matter is being considered at the meeting or voting on the matter. If there is not a quorum of directors who are eligible to vote on a matter because of the operation of section 195(1) of the Corporations Act, one or more directors may call a general meeting and the general meeting may deal with the matter.

The Directors have a personal interest in the outcome of each of their respective Resolutions under Resolutions 3 to 5 (inclusive) and have exercised their right under section 195(4) of the Corporations Act to put the issue of the Director Options to the Directors to Shareholders to resolve upon.

3.6 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

For a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:

  • (a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and

  • (b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,

unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.

15

The proposed issue of the Director Options to Directors (and/or their nominees) constitutes giving a financial benefit to a related party by virtue of being Directors of the Company

Notwithstanding that the issue of the Director Options is considered by the Board as reasonable remuneration and therefore falls within the exception stipulated by section 211 of the Corporations Act, the Board has resolved to seek Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act in respect of the issue of the Director Options to avoid any conflict of interest given the personal interests of the Company’s Directors in the outcome of these Resolutions.

3.7 Information required under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Pursuant to and in accordance with section 219 of the Corporations Act, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of the Director Options:

(a) Identity of the related parties to whom Resolutions 3 to 5 (inclusive) permit financial benefits to be given

Refer to Section 3.4(a).

(b) Nature of the financial benefit

Resolutions 3 to 5 (inclusive) seek Shareholder approval to allow the Company to issue the Director Options in the amounts specified in Section 3.4(c) to the Directors (and/or their respective nominees).

The Director Options are to be issued in accordance with the Plan and otherwise on the terms and conditions in Schedule 2.

The Shares to be issued upon conversion of the Director Options will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares and will rank equally in all respects with the Company’s existing Shares. The Company will apply for official quotation of the Shares on ASX.

(c) Board recommendations

Given the personal interests of all the Directors in the outcome of these Resolutions, the Board declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolutions 3 to 5 (inclusive).

(d) Valuation of financial benefit

A valuation of the Director Options is set out in Schedule 3.

(e) Remuneration of the Directors

Refer to Section 3.4(d).

(f) Existing relevant interest of Directors

At the date of this Notice, the Directors hold the following relevant interests in Equity Securities of the Company:

16

Director Shares Interest in the
Share capital of
**the Company1 **
Share Rights
James Eggins 7,500,000 0.23% -
Quinton de Klerk 8,545,453 0.26% -
Caroline Keats 71,142,855 2.19% 31,250,000

Note 1: Based on 3,253,778,652 Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice.

Assuming that Resolutions 3 to 5 (inclusive) are approved by Shareholders, all of the Director Options are issued and exercised into Shares, and no other Equity Securities are issued, exercised or converted (including any existing Share Rights held by the Directors as at the date of this Notice), the interests of each of the Directors in the Company would (based on the Share capital as at the date of this Notice) be as follows:

Director Interest in the Share capital of the
Company
James Eggins 1.40%
Quinton de Klerk 1.14%
Caroline Keats 3.88%

The Directors’ actual interests in the Company at the date the Director Options are exercised into Shares will depend on the extent that additional Shares are issued by the Company.

(g) Dilution

The issue of the Director Options will have a diluting effect on the percentage interest of existing Shareholders' holdings if the Director Options are exercised. The potential dilution if all Director Options are exercised into Shares is 3.84%, being:

  • (i) 1.18% in respect of the Director Options to be issued to James Eggins;

  • (ii) 0.89% in respect of the Director Options to be issued to Quinton de Klerk; and

  • (iii) 1.77% in respect of the Director Options to be issued to Caroline Keats.

This figure assumes the current Share capital structure as at the date of this Notice and that no Shares are issued other than the Shares issued on exercise of the Director Options.

17

The exercise of all of the Director Options will result in a total dilution of all other Shareholders' holdings of 3.71% on a fully diluted basis (assuming that all other convertible Securities are exercised and converted to Shares), being:

  • (i) 1.14% in respect of the Director Options to be issued to James Eggins;

  • (ii) 0.86% in respect of the Director Options to be issued to Quinton de Klerk;

  • (iii) 1.71% in respect of the Director Options to be issued to Caroline Keats.

The actual dilution will depend on the extent that additional Shares are issued by the Company

(h) Trading history

The highest and lowest closing market sale prices of the Shares on ASX during the 12 months prior to the date of this Notice were:

Highest : $0.008 per Share on 15 January 2024

Lowest : $0.001 per Share on various dates

The latest available closing market sale price of the Shares on ASX prior to the date of this Notice was $0.001 per Share on 12 December 2024.

(i) Corporate governance

Caroline Keats is an Executive Director of the Company and therefore the Board (other than Caroline Keats) believe that the grant of those Director Options to Caroline Keats (and/or her nominees) is in line with Recommendation 8.2 of the 4th Edition of the ASX Corporate Governance Council's Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations ( Recommendations ).

The Board acknowledges that the proposed grant of the Director Options to nonexecutive Directors James Eggins and Quinton de Klerk is contrary to the guidelines in Box 8.2 of the Recommendations, which provides that non-executive directors should not receive performance-based remuneration as it may lead to bias in their decision making and compromise their objectivity. However, the Board considers the grant of the Director Options to Mr Eggins and Mr de Klerk to be reasonable in the circumstances for the reasons provided in Section 3.1 above. The Board also considers that the grant does not affect the independence of the Directors as there are no performance-based milestones attaching to the Director Options.

(j) Taxation consequences

There are no taxation consequences for the Company arising from the issue of the Director Options (including fringe benefits tax).

(k) Other information

The Board is not aware of any other information that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to allow them to make a decision whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass Resolutions 3 to 5 (inclusive).

Schedule 4 – Summary of Material Terms of the Plan

A summary of the material terms and conditions of the Plan is set out below:

  • (a) ( Eligible Participant ): Eligible Participant means a person that has been determined by the Board to be eligible to participate in the Plan from time to time and is an “ESS participant” (as that term is defined in Division 1A of Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act) in relation to the Company or an associated entity of the Company. This relevantly includes, amongst others:

  • (i) an employee or director of the Company or an individual who provides services to the Company;

  • (ii) an employee or director of an associated entity of the Company or an individual who provides services to such an associated entity;

  • (iii) a prospective person to whom paragraphs (i) or (ii) apply;

  • (iv) a person prescribed by the relevant regulations for such purposes; or

  • (v) certain related persons on behalf of the participants described in paragraphs (i) to (iv) (inclusive).

  • (b) ( Maximum allocation ) The Company must not make an offer of Securities under the Plan in respect of which monetary consideration is payable (either upfront, or on exercise of convertible securities) where:

  • (i) the total number of Plan Shares (as defined in paragraph Error! Reference source n ot found. below) that may be issued or acquired upon exercise of the convertible securities offered; plus

  • (ii) the total number of Plan Shares issued or that may be issued as a result of offers made under the Plan at any time during the previous 3 year period,

would exceed 5% of the total number of Shares on issue at the date of the offer or such other limit as may be specified by the relevant regulations or the Company’s Constitution from time to time.

The maximum number of equity securities proposed to be issued under the Plan for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13 will be as approved by Shareholders from time to time ( ASX Limit ). This means that, subject to the following paragraph, the Company may issue up to the ASX Limit under the Plan without seeking Shareholder approval and without reducing its placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

The Company will require prior Shareholder approval for the acquisition of equity securities under the Plan to Directors, their associates and any other person whose relationship with the Company or a Director or a Director’s associate is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the acquisition should be approved by Shareholders. The issue of Securities with Shareholder approval will not count towards the ASX Limit.

27

  • (c) ( Purpose ): The purpose of the Plan is to:

  • (i) assist in the reward, retention and motivation of Eligible Participants;

  • (ii) link the reward of Eligible Participants to Shareholder value creation; and

  • (iii) align the interests of Eligible Participants with shareholders of the Group (being the Company and each of its Associated Bodies Corporate), by providing an opportunity to Eligible Participants to receive an equity interest in the Company in the form of Securities.

  • (d) ( Plan administration ): The Plan will be administered by the Board. The Board may exercise any power or discretion conferred on it by the Plan rules in its sole and absolute discretion, subject to compliance with applicable laws and the Listing Rules. The Board may delegate its powers and discretion.

  • (e) ( Eligibility, invitation and application ): The Board may from time to time determine that an Eligible Participant may participate in the Plan and make an invitation to that Eligible Participant to apply for Securities on such terms and conditions as the Board decides. An invitation issued under the Plan will comply with the disclosure obligations pursuant to Division 1A.

On receipt of an invitation, an Eligible Participant may apply for the Securities the subject of the invitation by sending a completed application form to the Company. The Board may accept an application from an Eligible Participant in whole or in part. If an Eligible Participant is permitted in the invitation, the Eligible Participant may, by notice in writing to the Board, nominate a party in whose favour the Eligible Participant wishes to renounce the invitation.

A waiting period of at least 14 days will apply to acquisitions of Securities for monetary consideration as required by the provisions of Division 1A.

  • (f) ( Grant of Securities ): The Company will, to the extent that it has accepted a duly completed application, grant the successful applicant ( Participant ) the relevant number of Securities, subject to the terms and conditions set out in the invitation, the Plan rules and any ancillary documentation required.

  • (g) ( Terms of Convertible Securities ): Each ‘Convertible Security’ represents a right to acquire one or more Shares (for example, under an option or performance right), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan.

Prior to a Convertible Security being exercised a Participant does not have any interest (legal, equitable or otherwise) in any Share the subject of the Convertible Security by virtue of holding the Convertible Security. A Participant may not sell, assign, transfer, grant a security interest over or otherwise deal with a Convertible Security that has been granted to them. A Participant must not enter into any arrangement for the purpose of

28

hedging their economic exposure to a Convertible Security that has been granted to them.

  • (h) ( Vesting of Convertible Securities ): Any vesting conditions applicable to the grant of Convertible Securities will be described in the invitation. If all the vesting conditions are satisfied and/or otherwise waived by the Board, a vesting notice will be sent to the Participant by the Company informing them that the relevant Convertible Securities have vested. Unless and until the vesting notice is issued by the Company, the Convertible Securities will not be considered to have vested. For the avoidance of doubt, if the vesting conditions relevant to a Convertible Security are not satisfied and/or otherwise waived by the Board, that Convertible Security will lapse.

  • (i) ( Exercise of Convertible Securities and cashless exercise ): To exercise a Convertible Security, the Participant must deliver a signed notice of exercise and, subject to a cashless exercise of Convertible Securities (see below), pay the exercise price (if any) to or as directed by the Company, at any time prior to the earlier of any date specified in the vesting notice and the expiry date as set out in the invitation.

At the time of exercise of the Convertible Securities, and subject to Board approval, the Participant may elect not to be required to provide payment of the exercise price for the number of Convertible Securities specified in a notice of exercise, but that on exercise of those Convertible Securities the Company will transfer or issue to the Participant that number of Shares equal in value to the positive difference between the Market Value of the Shares at the time of exercise and the exercise price that would otherwise be payable to exercise those Convertible Securities.

Market Value means, at any given date, the volume weighted average price per Share traded on the ASX over the 5 trading days immediately preceding that given date, unless otherwise specified in an invitation.

A Convertible Security may not be exercised unless and until that Convertible Security has vested in accordance with the Plan rules, or such earlier date as set out in the Plan rules.

  • (j) ( Delivery of Shares on exercise of Convertible Securities ): As soon as practicable after the valid exercise of a Convertible Security by a Participant, the Company will issue or cause to be transferred to that Participant the number of Shares to which the Participant is entitled under the Plan rules and issue a substitute certificate for any remaining unexercised Convertible Securities held by that Participant.

  • (k) ( Forfeiture of Convertible Securities ): Where a Participant who holds Convertible Securities ceases to be an Eligible Participant or becomes insolvent, all unvested Convertible Securities will automatically be forfeited by the Participant, unless the Board otherwise determines in its discretion to permit some or all of the Convertible Securities to vest.

29

Where the Board determines that a Participant has acted fraudulently or dishonestly, or wilfully breached his or her duties to the Group, the Board may in its discretion deem all unvested Convertible Securities held by that Participant to have been forfeited.

Unless the Board otherwise determines, or as otherwise set out in the Plan rules:

  • (i) any Convertible Securities which have not yet vested will be forfeited immediately on the date that the Board determines (acting reasonably and in good faith) that any applicable vesting conditions have not been met or cannot be met by the relevant date; and

  • (ii) any Convertible Securities which have not yet vested will be automatically forfeited on the expiry date specified in the invitation.

  • (l) ( Change of control ): If a change of control event occurs in relation to the Company, or the Board determines that such an event is likely to occur, the Board may in its discretion determine the manner in which any or all of the Participant’s Convertible Securities will be dealt with, including, without limitation, in a manner that allows the Participant to participate in and/or benefit from any transaction arising from or in connection with the change of control event.

  • (m) ( Rights attaching to Plan Shares ): All Shares issued under the Plan, or issued or transferred to a Participant upon the valid exercise of a Convertible Security, ( Plan Shares ) will rank pari passu in all respects with the Shares of the same class. A Participant will be entitled to any dividends declared and distributed by the Company on the Plan Shares and may participate in any dividend reinvestment plan operated by the Company in respect of Plan Shares. A Participant may exercise any voting rights attaching to Plan Shares.

  • (n) ( Disposal restrictions on Securities ): If the invitation provides that any Plan Shares or Convertible Securities are subject to any restrictions as to the disposal or other dealing by a Participant for a period, the Board may implement any procedure it deems appropriate to ensure the compliance by the Participant with this restriction.

  • (o) ( Adjustment of Convertible Securities ): If there is a reorganisation of the issued share capital of the Company (including any subdivision, consolidation, reduction, return or cancellation of such issued capital of the Company), the rights of each Participant holding Convertible Securities will be changed to the extent necessary to comply with the Listing Rules applicable to a reorganisation of capital at the time of the reorganisation.

If Shares are issued by the Company by way of bonus issue (other than an issue in lieu of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment), the holder of Convertible Securities is entitled, upon exercise of the Convertible Securities, to receive an allotment of as many additional Shares as would have been issued to the holder if the holder held Shares equal in number to the Shares in respect of which the Convertible Securities are exercised.

30

Unless otherwise determined by the Board, a holder of Convertible Securities does not have the right to participate in a pro rata issue of Shares made by the Company or sell renounceable rights.

  • (p) ( Participation in new issues ): There are no participation rights or entitlements inherent in the Convertible Securities and holders are not entitled to participate in any new issue of Shares of the Company during the currency of the Convertible Securities without exercising the Convertible Securities.

  • (q) ( Amendment of Plan ): Subject to the following paragraph, the Board may at any time amend any provisions of the Plan rules, including (without limitation) the terms and conditions upon which any Securities have been granted under the Plan and determine that any amendments to the Plan rules be given retrospective effect, immediate effect or future effect.

No amendment to any provision of the Plan rules may be made if the amendment materially reduces the rights of any Participant as they existed before the date of the amendment, other than an amendment introduced primarily for the purpose of complying with legislation or to correct manifest error or mistake, amongst other things, or is agreed to in writing by all Participants.

  • (r) ( Plan duration ): The Plan continues in operation until the Board decides to end it. The Board may from time to time suspend the operation of the Plan for a fixed period or indefinitely, and may end any suspension. If the Plan is terminated or suspended for any reason, that termination or suspension must not prejudice the accrued rights of the Participants.

If a Participant and the Company (acting by the Board) agree in writing that some or all of the Securities granted to that Participant are to be cancelled on a specified date or on the occurrence of a particular event, then those Securities may be cancelled in the manner agreed between the Company and the Participant.

  • (s) ( Loan Shares ): As part of an invitation, the Board may, in its absolute discretion, offer to an Eligible Participant a limited recourse, interest free loan to be made by the Company to the Eligible Participant for an amount equal to the aggregate issue price of the Shares ( Loan Shares ) offered to the Eligible Participant pursuant to the relevant invitation ( Participant Loan ).

A Participant Loan must be used for the sole purpose of paying the Company the issue price for the Loan Shares to be issued to the Eligible Participant on acceptance of the relevant invitation, with the amount to be advanced to the Eligible Participant under the Participant Loan applied to payment of the issue price for such Loan Shares.

Unless the Board, in its absolute discretion, determines otherwise, the date on which a Participant Loan must be repaid by the Participant shall be the earlier of:

31

  • (i) three months after the date that the Participant ceases to be an Eligible Participant; or

  • (ii) if determined by the Board to be repayable as a result of, or in anticipation of, a change of control event.

As security for a Participant Loan, the relevant Participant grants to the Company:

  • (i) a pledge of its Loan Shares provided under the Plan; and

  • (ii) a charge over all dividends and other amounts paid or payable on those Loan Shares.
