About Deep Yellow Limited
Deep Yellow Limited is successfully progressing a dual-pillar growth strategy to establish a globally diversified, Tier-1 uranium company aiming to produce 10+Mlb p.a.
The Company’s projects provide geographic and development diversity with two advanced projects – flagship Tumas, Namibia (FID expected in Q3/CY24) and Mulga Rock, Western Australia (to advance through revised DFS), both located in Tier-1 uranium jurisdictions.
Deep Yellow is well-positioned for further growth through development of its highly prospective exploration portfolio – Alligator River, Northern Territory and Omahola, Namibia with ongoing M&A focused on high-quality assets should opportunities arise that best fit the Company’s strategy.
Led by a best-in-class team, who are proven uranium mine builders and operators, the Company is advancing its growth strategy at a time when the need for nuclear energy is becoming the only viable option in the mid-to-long term to provide baseload power supply and achieve zero emission targets. Importantly, Deep Yellow is on track to becoming a reliable and long-term uranium producer, able to provide production optionality, security of supply and geographic diversity.

Please do not send cash. Receipts for payment will not be issued. Application money will not bear interest under any circumstances. You cannot withdraw or revoke your application once you have paid via BPAY[®] or EFT.
If you wish to subscribe for Shares as a Custodian for one or more Eligible Beneficiaries, you must also complete and submit an additional custodian certificate that contains further certifications and

details (required under the terms of the Instrument) before your application will be accepted. Applications by Custodians that are not accompanied by a duly completed custodian certificate will be rejected. Please refer to section 7 in relation to participation as a Custodian. The Company and its officers and agents may accept or reject your application for Shares in whole or in part at their discretion, including, without limitation, if:
-
(a) your application does not comply with these Terms and Conditions;
-
(b) it appears you are not an Eligible Shareholder;
-
(c) your BPAY® or EFT payment is not received by 5:00pm AWST on the Closing Date;
-
(d) it appears that you are applying to purchase more than $30,000 worth of Shares in aggregate (including as a result of Shares you hold directly, jointly or through a custodian or nominee arrangement) or your application is not for one of the permissible parcel amounts set out in section 6 above;
-
(e) payment of the application monies is not submitted in Australian currency; or
-
(f) the amount of your BPAY® or EFT payment is not equal to one of the permissible parcels amounts set out in the table above.
If the Company receives an amount by BPAY[®] or EFT that is not equal to one of the permissible parcel amounts set out in this section 6 above the Company may round down the dollar amount of Shares that you are applying for at its discretion, and refund to you the excess of your application monies.
If you do not wish to apply for Shares under the Offer, you do not need to take any action and the Offer will lapse on the Closing Date.
The effect of making an application, whether you pay directly via BPAY[®] or EFT, is set out in section 8.
Participation by Custodians
==> picture [9 x 8] intentionally omitted <==
If on the Record Date you are a Custodian, and you hold Shares on behalf of one or more Eligible Beneficiaries, you may apply for up to a maximum of $30,000 worth of Shares for each Eligible Beneficiary, subject to providing a custodian certificate on application for Shares pursuant to the Offer certifying the following:
-
(a) either or both of the following:
-
(i) that the Custodian holds Shares on behalf of one or more other persons ( Participating Beneficiaries ) that are not Custodians; and
(ii) that another Custodian ( Downstream Custodian ) holds beneficial interests in Shares on behalf of one of more other persons (each a Participating Beneficiary ), and the Custodian holds the Shares to which those beneficial interests relate on behalf of the Downstream Custodian or another Custodian,
on the Record Date and that each Participating Beneficiary has subsequently instructed the Custodian, or the Downstream Custodian (as the case may be) to apply for Shares on their behalf under the Offer;
-
(b) details of the number of Participating Beneficiaries and the name and address of each Participating Beneficiary;
-
(c) in respect of each Participating Beneficiary:
-
(i) where paragraph 7(a)(i) applies - the number of Shares that the Custodian holds on their behalf and the number or the dollar amount of Shares each Participating Beneficiary instructed the Custodian to apply for on their behalf; and
-
(ii) where paragraph 7(a)(ii) applies - the number of Shares to which the beneficial interests relate and the number or the dollar amount of Shares each Participating Beneficiary instructed the Downstream Custodian to apply for on their behalf;
-
(d) that there are no Participating Beneficiaries in respect of which the total of the application price for the following exceeds $30,000:
-
(i) the Shares applied for by the Custodian on their behalf under the Offer with the instructions referred to in paragraph 7(c); and
-
(ii) any other Shares issued to the Custodian in the 12 months before the application as a result of an instruction given by them to the Custodian or the Downstream Custodian to apply for Shares on their behalf under an arrangement similar to the Offer;
-
(e) that a copy of this Offer document was given to each Participating Beneficiary; and

held by the Custodian in relation to each Participating Beneficiary.
In providing a custodian certificate under this section 7, the Custodian may rely on information provided to it by the Participating Beneficiary and any Custodian who holds beneficial interests in the Shares held by the Custodian.
Custodians who wish to participate on behalf of one or more Eligible Beneficiaries should contact the Company’s share registry on 1300 850 505 (within Australia) or +61 3 9415 4000 (outside of Australia), during business hours, to obtain further information on how to apply, and obtain the form of custodian certificate.
If you hold Shares as a trustee or nominee for another person, but you are not a Custodian as defined above, you cannot participate for beneficiaries in the manner described above. In this case, the rules for multiple single holdings set out in section 6 apply.

Oversubscriptions and Scale Back
==> picture [15 x 9] intentionally omitted <==
The Company intends to raise up to a maximum of $30 million under the Offer. Applications received in excess of this amount will be scaled-back.
If the Company scales back applications for Shares under the Offer, it will do so on a pro-rata basis to all participants in the Offer based on the number of Shares they have applied for under the Offer. If there is a scale back, you may receive less than the parcel of Shares for which you have applied. If a scale back produces a fractional number of Shares when applied to your parcel, the number of Shares you will be issued will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares. Should a scale back occur, any excess application monies will be refunded to you without interest.
SPP Shortfall Offer
==> picture [15 x 9] intentionally omitted <==
Any Shares not subscribed for by Eligible Shareholders under the Offer will comprise the shortfall and up to $15 million of any shortfall may be offered to unrelated qualified, institutional, sophisticated or professional investors as a separate placement at the discretion of the Directors ( SPP Shortfall Offer ). Any SPP Shortfall Offer will be subject to shareholder approval.
Dispute Resolution
==> picture [15 x 8] intentionally omitted <==
The Company may settle any difficulties, anomalies, or disputes which may arise in connection with the operation of the SPP and/or the Offer whether generally or in relation to any participant or any application for Shares in any manner it deems appropriate, and its decision shall be conclusive and binding on all participants and other persons to whom the determination relates.
Variation, Termination and Waiver
==> picture [15 x 8] intentionally omitted <==
The Company reserves the right at any time to:
-
(a) amend or vary these Terms and Conditions;
-
(b) withdraw the Offer or suspend or terminate the SPP; and/or
-
(c) not accept an application, not issue Shares or issue Shares to a value less than that applied for under the Offer by an Eligible Shareholder (including a Custodian applying on behalf of its Participating Beneficiaries).
If the Company amends or varies the Terms and Conditions, withdraws, suspends or terminates the Offer it will advise ASX. The non-receipt of any such notice will not invalidate the amendment, variation, withdrawal, suspension or termination.
If the Offer is withdrawn or terminated, all of your application monies will be refunded to you. No interest will be paid on any money returned to you.
The Company reserves the right to waive strict compliance with any provision of these Terms and Conditions.
Continuous Disclosure

As a company listed on ASX, the Company is subject to the Chapter 6CA of the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules which require it to immediately notify ASX of any information concerning the Company of which it is or becomes aware and which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or value of the Company’s Shares, subject to certain exceptions.
Eligible Shareholders should have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to apply for Shares under the Offer.

Privacy
Eligible Shareholders who apply for Shares will provide personal information to the Company and the Share Registry. By applying for Shares under the Offer, an Eligible Shareholder will be taken to have consented to the Company and the Share Registry collecting, holding and using the Eligible Shareholder’s personal information in order to assess their application, process the application, service their needs as Shareholders, provide facilities and services that the Eligible Shareholders requests, and carry out appropriate administrative functions.
Corporate and taxation laws require the Company to collect some personal information. Eligible Shareholders who do not provide the information requested may not have their applications processed efficiently, or at all.
==> picture [15 x 8] intentionally omitted <==
Taxation
The Company does not consider that it is appropriate to give Eligible Shareholders advice regarding the taxation consequences of applying for Shares under the Offer, as it is not possible to provide a comprehensive summary of the possible taxation positions of Eligible Shareholders.
Eligible Shareholders should obtain their own independent taxation advice from a suitably qualified professional adviser about participating in the Offer and the taxation implications of an investment in Shares.
