2. Company Overview

2.1 Overview

The principal activities of the Company are cultivation of medicinal cannabis for both medicinal and research purposes pursuant to the licenses and permits issued to Cann Group and the development and manufacture (via third party arrangements) of finished product formulations.

The Company is based in Melbourne, Australia, with its major production facility located near Mildura, Victoria.

2.2 Strategic Plan

Cann Group is committed to expanding its cultivation and production activities at its Mildura facility with the aim of growing its revenue base and transitioning to profitability.

Production

The focus is on expanding and maximising production in cultivation zones 1 and 3, which were completed as part of Stage 1A of the Mildura facility build in 2022. Zones 1 and 3 have capacity to produce approximately 10 tonnes of dried cannabis flower per annum. The target production for the financial year ended 30 June 2025 is 5.5 tonne which the Company is on track to meet. At maximum capacity, Cann is well positioned to achieve positive cash flows.

Commercial

Cann’s commercial strategy is to provide medicinal cannabis to the market via its own Botanitech brand and as bulk cannabis flower. Botanitech is currently sold in a variety of forms to meet patient demand, such as inhalable flower, oils, and vapes. All forms are available in various THC and CBD combinations. Cann Group conducts its own packing and filling via its GMP Mildura facility and consequently most of the entire production chain through to finished goods is handled in-house.

In addition to Botanitech, Cann will be focussing on producing product for its white label customers, and for bulk dried flower sales. Both of these are important sources of revenue for Cann going forward.

12

Significant dependencies

Cann’s commercial plan is dependent on the production of consistent quality cannabis flower from Cann’s regional facility that meets a certain criteria that is demanded by the market. It also relies on the sale price per gram of flower to be maintained at level that exceeds the cost of production, and that also delivers a reasonable margin. In addition, it requires Cann’s regulatory licenses and permits to be maintained, and for the market for medicinal cannabis to continue to grow.

Financial

Following the restructure of Cann’s operations in 2024, Cann now has a more manageable cost base, from which it can drive towards profitability. Cann will continue to investigate options for additional capital, debt restructuring and merger and acquisitions to provide Cann with the opportunity to deliver its production and commercial strategies outlined above.

2.3 Finance arrangements

The Company has a debt position of $72 million at 31 December 2024 (refer Table 4.2.1). An amount of $65.5 million of this debt is secured and borrowed from the National Australia Bank (NAB) and attracts an interest rate of BBSY + 2.64% per annum (or 2.34% per annum for $15.6 million) and incurs a facility fee of 0.35% per annum and has a maturity date of 30 September 2025 (as recently agreed by the NAB). A further $5 million is owed to a private credit lender and incurs an interest rate of 15% per annum, and has a maturity debt of 6 May 2025, with the lender currently considering an extension to 30 September 2025. The remainder of the debt is a convertible note ($1.3 million) holding with the Investor and a small finance leasing arrangement of $0.2 million.

In February, the NAB agreed to capitalise two upcoming quarterly interest payments (due on or near 25 February 2025 and 22 May 2025) of approximately $1.8 million.

2.4 Funding

The Offer will raise $600,000, before costs.

2.5 Use of Funds

The Company proposes to use the funds raised through the Offer for third party supplier expenses related to the commercial release costs of its cannabis flower (irradiation, jars, bottles, lids) ($150k), the manufacturing of vapes and oils ($150k) and for internal payroll coverage ($300k).

2.6 Future of Cann Group

Cann Group’s strategic plan is to expand its cultivation and production activities with the ultimate aim of growing its revenue base. The Company firmly believes that this Offer will enable it to continue working towards execution of its strategic plan.

2.7

Removal of Secondary Trading Restrictions

Generally, section 707(3) of the Corporations Act requires that a prospectus is issued in order for a person to whom securities were issued without disclosure under Part 6D of the Corporations Act to on-sell those securities within 12 months of the date of their issue.

Section 708A(5) of the Corporations Act provides an exception to section 707(3) where an entity issues a 'cleansing' notice under section 708A(5).

The Company was suspended from trading on the ASX for more than five trading days in the last twelve months. Specifically for the period commencing 1 March 2024, under Listing Rule

4.3 Effect on the control of the Company

As at the Prospectus Date, the Company does not have any substantial holders (being shareholders who hold 5% or more of the shares in the Company). Therefore, it is not expected that the Offer will have any effect on the control of the Company.

20

5. Risks

The SP Securities are considered highly speculative and carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends or returns of capital. An investment in the Company is not risk free and the Directors strongly recommend that potential investors consult their professional advisers and consider the risks described below, together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus, before deciding whether to apply for SP Securities.

The following list of risks ought not to be taken as exhaustive of all the risks faced by the Company or by Shareholders. The proposed future activities of the Company are subject to a number of risks and other factors which may impact its future performance. These risks may be outside the control of the Company or the Directors and may not be able to be mitigated.

5.1 Risks specific to the Company

The current and future operations of the Company, may be affected by a range of factors, including:

(a) Requirements for additional capital

Depending on the Company’s ability to generate income from its operations, the Company may require further financing to develop its business. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be required to reduce the scope of its operations and scale back its operations and its other longer-term objectives as the case may be.

Cann may also enter into transactions to acquire medicinal cannabis or related or synergistic businesses or companies. However, any future expansion of Cann’s business may well require additional capital, depending on the nature of the development or expansion. The failure to raise the necessary funding, whether as debt or equity, could result in the delay or indefinite postponement of Cann's business expansion. There can be no assurance that additional funding or other types of financing will be available if needed or that, if available, the terms of such funding will be available on favourable terms.

If additional funds are raised through issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, existing shareholders could suffer significant dilution.

In addition, debt funding may materially increase Cann’s debt levels and gearing. This may increase Cann's funding costs, reduce its financial performance and increase the risk of Cann being in default or being unable to pay its debts when due in the future.

(b) R&D funding risk

An important source of funding for Cann is the cash refund that it can apply for annually under the Australian government’s Research and Development Tax Incentive scheme (“R&D Tax Refund”). There can be no assurance that the R&D Tax Refund scheme will remain in place, or that Cann will continue to be entitled to access it in the future. Therefore, if Cann were to not receive an R&D Tax Refund, this is highly likely to negatively impact Cann's financial performance as well as increase its working capital requirements, potentially causing it to seek additional funding.

21

(c) Going concern

The Company notes the material uncertainty related to going concern in the auditor’s report to the members regarding interim report for the half year ended 31 December 2024. Specifically, the auditors draw attention to Note 1 in the interim report. As stated in Note 1, these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on Cann Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. There is therefore the risk that Company may need to source additional funding to continue as a going concern and pay its debts as and when they are due. To the extent that funding is equity or equity type funding it may be dilutive, or on onerous terms, if available at all. In addition, any debt funding would increase the Company's debt levels, increase its funding costs and adversely impact the Company's financial results, again if available. If the Company is unable to obtain such additional funding, it may not be able to meet its future obligations as and when they fall due. There is a further risk that its major lender, National Australia Bank, will cease its support and call in its debt in such circumstances

(d)

Operating losses

Cann continues to incur operating losses. Cann may not be able to achieve profitability and may continue to incur significant losses in the future. In addition, Cann will increase its operating expenses as it grows its business. If Cann’s revenues do not increase to offset these expected increases in expenditures and operating expenses, it will not be profitable. Anticipated or expected sales may not be achieved, and even if achieved, may not result in Cann being profitable. There is no assurance that Cann Group will be successful in achieving a return on shareholders’ investments and the chances of success must be considered in light of the proposed expansion of its operations. Also, Cann may require additional funding to meet those losses or bridge the period of time until it becomes profitable, with the associated risks of funding noted above.

(e) Agricultural risks

Cann’s business involves the cultivation and processing of cannabis, an agricultural product. Risks inherent with agricultural businesses apply to Cann’s business, including lower than expected yields, disease, mould and insects and other pests. Although Cann currently grows and expects to grow the significant majority of its product in climate controlled, monitored, indoor locations, there is no guarantee that changes in outside weather and climate, as well as catastrophic weather events such as fires, earthquakes, high winds or storms, will not adversely affect production or that inherent agricultural risks will not arise anyway. Losses in production may increase Cann's costs of goods sold, reducing margin, as well as limiting revenue due to lower amounts of product being available to sell. This would have an adverse effect on Cann's financial performance.

(f)

Production risks

Cann’s ability to produce cannabis and manufacture cannabis products, and to increase its production in the future, may be adversely impacted by a number of production factors. These include plant design errors, non-performance by third party contractors, increases in materials or labour costs and /or limits on availability of materials or labour, production performance falling below expected levels of output or efficiency, human error, the agricultural factors described above, contractor or operator errors, breakdowns, aging or failure of equipment or processes, labour disputes, any rise in energy and utilities costs and limits on availability of such utilities. Further power or water failures could lead to the Mildura Facility not functioning as it is designed with resultant damage to crops.

22

Any significant interruption or diminution in the availability of the supply chain for key inputs could materially impact Cann’s ability to produce cannabis and manufacture cannabis products, which would negatively impact its business, financial performance and/or prospects.

(g) Import risks

Some of Cann’s operations depends on its ability to import cannabis products, particularly flower, from foreign jurisdictions. If overseas suppliers are unable to meet the requirements to enable Cann to import the necessary volumes of flower e.g. by not providing the required documentation, by not providing flower of the necessary standard, or by not complying with shipping and customs requirements, this would impact Cann's ability to import the products and meet customer demands, which would ultimately have a negative impact on Cann's revenues and prospects.

In addition, there is no guarantee that Australian legislation and regulations will not change in the future and prohibit the importation of cannabis or cannabis products from all or specific overseas jurisdictions which Cann imports from. This may have a material adverse impact on the financial position, financial performance and / or prospects of Cann.

(h)

Regulatory approvals

Cann’s ability to continue its business is dependent on holding certain authorisations, licences and permits and adherence to all regulatory requirements related to such activities. Any failure to comply with the conditions of those approvals and licences, or to renew the approvals and licences after their expiry dates, would have a material adverse impact on the financial position, financial performance and / or prospects of Cann.

(i)

Product approvals

Cannabis products are currently regulated as medicines in Australia. Generally, medicines imported into, supplied in, and exported from Australia must be entered in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), which is administered by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) or through the Special Access Scheme (SAS), Authorised Prescriber (AP) scheme or clinical trial exemptions. Cann cannot guarantee that any or all of its medicinal cannabis products will be approved for supply to patient under these pathways or that these pathways will remain available. Any failure to continue to be able to access these pathways would have a material adverse impact on the financial position, financial performance or prospects of Cann.

(j) Compliance with licence conditions

A licence to cultivate, produce and/or manufacture under the Narcotic Drugs Act 1967 (Cth) is subject to a number of conditions, which if not maintained may result in a suspension or revocation of the licence or permit. Such conditions include ensuring that all staff engaged are suitable, that directors and officers (and the business itself) is a fit-and-proper person and that certain security and reporting measures are maintained. Any failure to maintain these licenses would have a material adverse impact on the financial position, financial performance and / or prospects of Cann.

(k) Product development

Cann may not be successful in developing effective and safe new products to market in time to be effectively commercialised, or in obtaining any required regulatory approvals or funding, which may impact its growth initiatives relating to product development with an associated material adverse effect on its prospects.

23

(l) Diversionary risk and theft

Given the nature of Cann’s cannabis products and despite meeting or even exceeding the TGA and ODC security requirements, there remains a risk of shrinkage as well as theft. A security breach at one of Cann’s facilities could expose Cann to additional liability and to potentially costly fines, penalties and litigation, increased expenses relating to the resolution and future prevention of these breaches and may result in the possible suspension or revocation of licences and permits, and may also deter existing or potential customers from purchasing Cann’s products. Any such event may have a material adverse effect on Cann's prospects.

(m)

Industry confidence

There is a risk that incidents beyond the control of Cann could occur which would have the effect of reducing patient, medical/scientific or regulatory confidence or preferences for cannabis or medicinal cannabis products, including serious adverse effect incidents involving medicinal cannabis, negative medical or scientific findings, material breaches of a law or regulation by Cann or a competitor. Any such event may have a material adverse effect on Cann's prospects.

(n)

Competition risks

Should the size of the Australian medicinal cannabis market increase, the overall demand for products and number of competitors will, or is likely to, increase as well, and in order for Cann to be competitive, Cann will need to invest significantly in research and development, new product and market development, marketing, new client identification, distribution channels and client support. If Cann is not successful in obtaining sufficient resources to invest in these areas, Cann’s ability to compete in the market could be adversely affected and this could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial position, financial performance and/or prospects.

  • (o) Third party manufacture risks

Cann is currently reliant on limited sources of manufacturing to manufacture certain of Cann’s products. There are other potential commercial manufacturers that Cann could use to meet its manufacturing requirements. However, if Cann needed to engage a new manufacturer, the process of transitioning to a new manufacturer would likely take several months, so there would be a risk that Cann's manufacturing abilities would be adversely impacted during the transition period, with a negative associated impact on Cann's financial performance.

5.2 Industry risks

(a) General regulatory risk

Companies which operate in the medicinal cannabis industry are subject to a highly regulated environment and numerous laws and regulations. Changes to such laws, regulations and directives may cause adverse effects on a business operating in this industry, its financial position, financial performance and/or prospects.

(b) Market risks

There is a risk that the demand for the supply of medicinal cannabis products may decrease due to various market factors, which could have an associated adverse effect on a business operating in this industry, its financial position, financial performance and/or prospects.

24

(c) Clinical trial outcomes

There are various clinical trials being conducted in Australia and internationally in relation to medicinal cannabis. An adverse finding from an approved or recognised clinical trial is likely to or may have a material adverse effect on a company's prospects of conducting clinical trials in the medicinal cannabis sector, which could have an associated adverse effect on the financial position, financial performance and/or prospects of a company and the medicinal cannabis industry generally.

5.3 General risks

(a) Nature of investment

There are inherent risks associated with investment in any listed company. The SP Shares under the Offer do not guarantee payment of dividends, return on capital or maintenance of capital or value. No assurances can be given that the SP Shares will trade at or above a certain price at any time, or that they may be sold at any price. The value of the SP Shares may vary depending on the financial and operating performance of Cann and external factors over which Cann and its directors have no control, including changes to market sentiment.

(b)

Dilution risk

If Cann needs to raise additional equity in the future, this may dilute the shareholdings of existing shareholders, who may not have the opportunity to participate in that raising.

(c)

General economic conditions

Adverse changes in economic conditions such as to interest rates, exchange rates, inflation, government policy, taxation law, investor sentiment towards particular market sectors, demand for and supply of capital, national and international economic conditions (including any trade conflicts between major countries, terrorism, war, social upheaval or other hostilities) amongst others are outside Cann’s control and have the potential to have an adverse impact on Cann (including Cann's financial performance and/or financial position) and its operations.

(d) Tax legislation & accounting standards

Changes in tax laws or accounting standard from time to time can have an adverse impact on the financial performance, financial position and / or prospects of a company.

  • (e)

Cyber security

A company may suffer material losses from cyber-attacks or other information security breaches. As cyber threats continue to evolve, a company may be required to expend additional resources to continue to modify or enhance protective measures or to investigate and remediate any security vulnerabilities, with an adverse impact on its financial performance.

  • (f)

Privacy

A company may collect or be provided with information which is considered personal or sensitive, and the company is responsible for protecting that information from privacy breaches and mandatory reporting obligations under the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme contained within the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) ( Privacy Act ). A breach of its obligations under the Privacy Act may have an adverse effect on the company's business, reputation, financial position, financial performance and/or prospects.

25

5.4 SP Securities Risks

(a) Risks to the SP Notes

The SP Notes are unsecured and therefore the Investor is at risk in the event the Company is wound up while the SP Notes are outstanding. The Company may also redeem the SP Notes prior to the maturity date which may impact their expected financial return.

(b) Risks to the SP Options

The SP Options may remain out of the money for a significant period of time, including up to the expiration date of the SP Options, negatively impacting the Investor’s expected financial return.

5.5 Investment highly speculative

The above list of risk factors ought not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The above factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the SP Securities offered under this Prospectus. Therefore, the SP Securities to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those SP Securities. Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for SP Securities pursuant to this Prospectus.

The following is a summary of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to SP Placement Shares and SP Shares to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus.

This summary is qualified by the full terms of Company's Constitution and does not purport to be exhaustive or to constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. A full copy of the Constitution is available from Company on request free of charge or available for inspection at the Company’s registered office during normal business hours. It can also be downloaded from the Company’s website https://www.canngrouplimited.com/ for free) and does not purport to be exhaustive or to constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. These rights and liabilities can involve complex questions of law arising from an interaction of Constitution with statutory and common law requirements. For a Shareholder to obtain a definitive assessment of the rights and liabilities which attach to shares in any specific circumstances, the Shareholder should seek legal advice.

(a) General meetings

Directors may call a meeting of Shareholders whenever they think fit, by Board resolution. Shareholders may call a meeting as provided by the Corporations Act and the Constitution of the Company. All Shareholders are entitled to a notice of meeting.

A meeting may be held in two or more places linked together by audio-visual communication devices. A quorum for a meeting of Shareholders is three eligible voters.

The Company will hold annual general meetings in accordance with the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules.

Shareholders are entitled to be present in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative (in the case of a company) to speak and to vote at general meetings of the Company.

(b) Voting

Subject to any rights or restrictions at the time being attached to any class or classes of shares, at a general meeting of the Company on a show of hands, every Shareholder present in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative (in the case of a company) has one vote and upon a poll, every Shareholder present in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative (in the case of a company) has one vote for any Share held by the Shareholder and a fraction of a vote for every partly paid Share.

A poll may be demanded by the chairperson of the meeting, any five Shareholders entitled to vote in person or by proxy, attorney or representative or by any one or more Shareholders holding not less than 5% of the total voting rights of all Shareholders having the right to vote.

(c) Dividends

The Directors may declare and authorise the distribution from the profits of the Company, dividends to be distributed to Shareholders according to their rights and interests. The Directors may, before declaring any dividend, set aside reserves out of the profits of the Company which at the Directors' discretion may be used in the

29

business of the Company or be invested in such investments as the Directors think fit. Except to the extent that the terms of issue of shares provide otherwise, each dividend must be distributed according to the amount paid up on the Share in a manner calculated in accordance with the Constitution.

(d) Winding up

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the sanction of a special resolution of the Company, divide among the Shareholders in kind the whole or any part of the property of the Company and may for that purpose set such value as the liquidator considers fair on any property to be so divided and may determine how the division is to be carried out as between the Shareholders or different classes of Shareholders.

The liquidator may, with the sanction of a special resolution of the Company, vest the whole or any part of any such property in trustees on such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as the liquidator thinks fit, but so that no Shareholder is compelled to accept any shares or other securities in respect of which there is any liability.

(e) Transfer of shares

Generally, Shares are freely transferable, subject to formal requirements, and to the registration of the transfer not resulting in a contravention of or failure to observe the provisions of a law of Australia.

Where the Shares are classified by the ASX as 'Restricted Securities' certain restrictions on transfer will also apply.

(f) Directors

The business of the Company is to be managed by or under the direction of the Directors.

Directors are not required under the Constitution to hold any Shares.

Unless changed by the Company in general meeting, the minimum number of Directors is three and the maximum is 15. The existing Directors may appoint a new Director to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the Board. Any such Director will hold office until the conclusion of the next general meeting (at which meeting he or she may be eligible for election as a Director).

The Constitution contains provisions relating to the rotation and election of directors. No Director other than the Managing Director may hold office later than the third annual general meeting after his or her appointment or election, without submitting himself or herself for re-election.

For a person to be eligible for election as a Director, a nomination for the office of Director and the written consent of the proposed director must be received at the Company’s registered office not later than 35 Business Days before the meeting.

(g) Offer of shares

Subject to the requirements of the Corporations Act and if applicable, the Listing Rules, the issue of Shares by the Company is under the control of the Directors.

Under the Constitution the Company is empowered, without prejudice to any special rights previously conferred on the holders of any existing shares or class of shares, to issue shares with preferred, deferred or other rights on such terms and conditions as they see fit.

30

(h) Variation of shares and rights attaching to shares

The rights and privileges attached to any Shares may be varied in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act, and the Company’s share capital may be altered in any manner permitted by law.

(i) Unmarketable parcels

The Company may procure the disposal of Securities where the member holds Securities of which the aggregate market value is less than a marketable parcel of Securities within the meaning of the Listing Rules (i.e. a parcel of Securities with a market value of less than $500). To invoke this procedure, the Company must first give notice to the relevant member holding less than a marketable parcel of Securities, who may then elect not to have his or her Shares sold by notifying the Company.

(j) Share buy-backs

The Company may buy-back Shares in itself in accordance with the provisions of the Corporations Act.

(k) Indemnity and insurance of officers

Under the Constitution, the Company is obliged, to the extent permitted by law, to indemnify an officer (including Directors) of the Company against liabilities incurred by the officer in that capacity, and against costs and expenses incurred by the officer in defending civil or criminal proceedings; unless the liability arises out of their own dishonesty, negligence, lack of good faith or breach of duty.

To the extent permitted by law, the Company may also pay the premium on any insurance policy for any person who is or has been, an officer against a liability incurred by that person in his or her capacity as an officer of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company.

(l) Changes to the constitution

The Constitution can only be amended in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act.

(m)

Listing Rules

Provided the Company remains admitted to the Official List of the ASX, then despite anything in the Constitution, no act may be done that is prohibited by the Listing Rules, and authority is given for acts required to be done by the Listing Rules. The Constitution will be deemed to comply with the Listing Rules, as amended from time to time.

7. Additional information

7.1 Continuous disclosure obligations

The Company is a 'disclosing entity' (as defined in section 111AC of the Corporations Act) for the purposes of section 713 of the Corporations Act, and, as such, is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company is required to continuously disclose any information it has to the market which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Company's securities. The SP Shares are in the same class as Shares that have been quoted on the official list of the ASX during the three months prior to the issue of this Prospectus, and the SP Options are options to be issued Shares.

This Prospectus is a prospectus to which the special content rules under section 713 of the Corporations Act apply. That provision allows the issue of a more concise prospectus in relation to an offer of securities, or options to acquire securities, in a class which has been continuously quoted by ASX in the three months prior to the date of the prospectus. In general terms the Prospectus is only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of SP Securities on the Company and the rights attaching to the SP Securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, the financial position, profits and losses or prospects of the Company.

This Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Shareholders should therefore have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest.

Having taken such precautions and having made such enquires as are reasonable, the Company believes that it has complied with the general and specific requirements of ASX as applicable from time to time throughout the three months before the issue of this Prospectus which required the Company to notify ASX of information about specified events or matters as they arise for the purpose of ASX making that information available to the stock market conducted by ASX.

Information that is already in the public domain has not been reported in this Prospectus other than that which is considered necessary to make this Prospectus complete.

The Company, as a disclosing entity under the Corporations Act states that:

  • (a) it is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations;

  • (b) copies of documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company (not being documents referred to in section 1274(2)(a) of the Corporations Act) may be obtained from, or inspected at, the offices of the ASIC; and

  • (c) it will provide a copy of each of the following documents, free of charge, to any person on request between the date of issue of this Prospectus and the closing date of the Offer:

  • (i) the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2024 being the most recent annual financial report of the Company lodged with the ASIC before the issue of this Prospectus; and

  • (ii) any documents used to notify ASX of information relating to the Company in the period from lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in

paragraph (i) above until the issue of this Prospectus in accordance with the Listing Rules as referred to in section 674(1) of the Corporations Act.

Copies of all documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company can be inspected at the registered office of the Company during normal office hours.

The Company has lodged the announcements set out in Table 8.1.1 below with ASX since the lodgement of its annual report on 13 September 2024 and prior to the lodgement of this Prospectus with ASIC.
