CONNECTED IO LIMITED

(ACN 009 076 233)

28 May 2021

Dear Shareholder

CONNECTED IO LIMITED - PRO-RATA NON-RENOUNCEABLE ENTITLEMENT OFFER

As announced on 28 May 2021, Connected IO Limited (ACN 009 076 233) ( Company ) is undertaking a pro rata non-renounceable entitlement offer of up to approximately 533,079,662 shares ( Offer ) to raise up to approximately $1,066,159 on the basis of 1 new share ( New Share ) for every 1 share held at an issue price of $0.002 per New Share. The Company expects to lodge an offer document for the Offer ( Offer Document ) with the ASX today.

The Offer is fully underwritten by 708 Capital Pty Ltd.

The funds raised from the Offer are planned to be used towards debt repayment, associated interest costs, expenses of the Offer and working capital.

New Shares will rank equally with all fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company ( Shares ) already on issue.

The Offer is being made to all shareholders of the Company ( Shareholders ) named on its register of members at 5:00 pm (WST) on 2 June 2021 ( Record Date ), whose registered address is in Australia or New Zealand.

The Offer is being made by the Company in accordance with section 708AA of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) ( Corporations Act ) as notionally modified by the ASIC Corporations (Non-Traditional Rights Issues) Instrument 2016/84 , meaning that no prospectus or other disclosure document needs to be prepared.

The Company has determined that it would be unreasonable to extend the Offer to any shareholder with a registered address outside Australia or New Zealand ( Ineligible Shareholders ), having regard to:

  • (a) the small number of shareholders with addresses in such countries;

  • (b) the number and value of shares they hold; and

  • (c) the cost to the Company of complying with applicable legal and regulatory requirements in such other countries.

Actions required of Eligible Shareholders

There are a number of actions Eligible Shareholders may take:

  • You may wish to accept all of your rights to subscribe for New Shares pursuant to the Offer ( Entitlement ). To take up all or some of your Entitlements you will need to ensure your application money for the Entitlements you wish to take up is received by Computershare ( Share Registry ) by no later than 5:00 pm AEST (2:00 pm AWST) on the Closing Date, by completing and returning your Entitlement and Acceptance Form together with your cheque, drawn on an Australian bank or bank draft made payable in Australian currency, for the amount indicated on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form OR making a payment by BPAY in accordance with the instructions on your Entitlement and Acceptance Form.

  • You may wish to accept part of your Entitlement. To take up part of your Entitlement you will need to ensure your application money for the Entitlements you wish to take up is received by the Share Registry by no later than 5:00pm AEST (2:00 pm AWST) on the Closing Date, by completing and returning your Entitlement and Acceptance Form by filling in the number of New Shares you wish to accept in the space provided on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form together with your cheque, drawn on an Australian bank or bank draft made payable in Australian currency, for the appropriate application monies OR making a payment by BPAY

in accordance with the instructions on your Entitlement and Acceptance Form (at $0.002 per New Share).

  • You may do nothing. If you choose to do nothing with your Entitlements, while you will continue to hold the same number of Shares, your interest in the Company will be diluted and you will receive no value for your Entitlement.
