DATADOT TECHNOLOGY LIMITED ACN 091 908 726 EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

This Explanatory Memorandum relates to the 2024 Annual General Meeting of the Company to be held as a virtual meeting at 10:00am on Thursday, 28 November 2024.

Financial Report and Reports of the Directors and Auditor

This item allows Shareholders the opportunity to consider the Financial Report, Directors’ Report and Auditor’s Report of the Company. Under Section 317 of the Corporations Act the Company is required to lay these three reports, together comprising the Company’s Annual Report, before its Shareholders at the Meeting.

Resolution 1: Remuneration Report

Resolution 1 provides Shareholders the opportunity to vote on the Company’s Remuneration Report. Under Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act, the Company must put the adoption of its Remuneration Report to a vote at the annual general meeting. The Remuneration Report is contained in the Directors’ Report. Section 250R(3) of the Corporations Act provides that Resolution 1 is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company, and a failure of Shareholders to pass Resolution 1 will not require the Directors to alter any arrangements in the Remuneration Report. The Chairman will allow reasonable opportunity for Shareholders to ask about or make comments on the Remuneration Report.

The Chairman intends to exercise all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1. If the Chairman is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chairman is to vote on Resolution 1, by signing and returning the Proxy Form, you are considered to have provided the Chairman with an express authorisation for the Chairman to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chairman’s intention.

The Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote for this resolution.

The Chairman intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of resolution 1.

Resolution 2: Re-election of David Lloyd

Under Rule 6.4 of the Company’s Constitution one-third of the Company’s Directors, other than the Managing Director, must retire from office annually, and if eligible may offer themselves for re-election. Accordingly, Mr Lloyd retires and seeks re-election.

Mr Lloyd joined the Board as a non-executive Director on 13 May 2019 and was re-elected at the 2020 and 2022 AGMs.

David is an experienced senior executive specialising in strategy, new technologies, business development, ventures and partnerships

As a senior executive until recently with Qantas and previously Virgin Blue and Virgin Australia, David has been the architect of several high-profile alliances with other airlines as well as a joint venture with the Government of Samoa, demonstrating his ability to build valuable commercial relationships. While at Virgin Blue he also designed the Velocity Frequent Flyer program, valued at approximately $1 billion in its partial sale to a private equity partner and which

Page 6

continues to be the most profitable unit of Virgin Australia. Subsequently at Virgin he developed the business cases for fleet orders worth over USD2 billion and the establishment of a new international business.

More recently while at Qantas, David has mentored businesses in its tech accelerator program, overseen commercial relationships with start-up and scale-up businesses including those in which Qantas has taken equity stakes and warrants, and is working on externally commercialising the company’s own innovations.

Previously David has worked internationally as a consultant with the Boston Consulting Group and Arthur Andersen Business Consulting and was a project manager for the Sydney Organising Committee for the Olympic Games. He is an internationally competitive cyclist and member of numerous cycling organisations, bringing a customer viewpoint to the value of both DataDot and PropertyVAULT.

The Board, other than Mr Lloyd, recommends the re-election of Mr Lloyd as a Director. The Chairman intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of resolution 2.
