Voting Procedures
All resolutions will be by poll
In accordance with clause 40.2 of the Company's Constitution (Constitution) the Chair intends to demand a poll on each of the resolutions proposed at the Meeting. Each resolution considered at the Meeting will therefore be conducted by a poll. The Chair considers voting by poll to be in the interests of Shareholders as a whole and is a way to ensure the views of as many Shareholders as possible are represented at the Meeting.
Entitlement to vote
The Directors have determined pursuant to regulation 7.11.37 of the Corporations Regulations 2001 (Cth) that the persons eligible to vote at the Meeting are those who are registered Shareholders of the Company as at 7.00pm (AEST) on Wednesday, 24 June 2026 (Entitlement Time).
This means that if you are not the registered holder of a Share in the Company at the Entitlement Time, you will not be entitled to vote at the Meeting.
How to vote – before the EGM
Direct vote – using the Voting Form
In accordance with clause 50 of the Constitution, Shareholders are able to vote directly on resolutions considered at the Meeting at any time between the date of this Notice of Meeting and 10.00am (AEST) on 10.00am, Wednesday, 24 June 2026 by returning the hard copy Voting Form or by voting online (further details below).

The EOS Direct Voting Regulations governing direct voting are available on the Company website at https://eos-aus.com/about-us/corporate-governance/. By submitting a direct vote, you agree to be bound by the EOS Direct Voting Regulations.
Appointment of Proxy
A Shareholder who is entitled to vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies to vote in place of the Shareholder.
If the Shareholder appoints two proxies, the Shareholder may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is entitled to exercise. If no proportion or number of votes is specified, each proxy may exercise half of the Shareholder's votes. If the specified proportion or number of votes exceeds that which the Shareholder is entitled to, each proxy may exercise half of the Shareholder's votes. Any fractions of votes brought about by the apportionment of votes to a proxy will be disregarded.
A proxy need not be a Shareholder of the Company. A body corporate appointed as a Shareholder's proxy may appoint a representative to exercise any of the powers the body may exercise as a proxy at the Meeting. The representative should bring to the Meeting evidence of his or her appointment, including any authority under which the appointment is signed, unless it has previously been given to the Company.
If a Shareholder:
- has not directed their proxy how to vote on Items the subject of this Meeting, the proxy may vote as the proxy determines; and
- appoints the Chair of the Meeting as proxy and does not direct the Chair how to vote on an Item of business, the Chair will vote in accordance with his voting intention as stated in this Notice of Meeting.

Item 1: Approval to issue Strategic Placement Shares to Generation 5 Holding L.L.C
Background
On 20 May 2026, the Company announced the completion of a fully underwritten institutional placement to raise approximately A$150 million (before costs) (Institutional Placement) through the issue of 18,750,000 new Shares to institutional investors at an issue price of A$8.00 per Share pursuant to the Company's existing Listing Rule 7.1A capacity (Institutional Placement Shares). The Institutional Placement Shares were issued on 25 May 2026.
Also, on 20 May 2026, the Company also announced a non-underwritten strategic placement to raise A$40 million (before costs) in addition to the Institutional Placement and conditional on shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 (Strategic Placement) through the issue of 5,000,000 new Shares to Generation 5 Holding L.L.C. (a related entity of Calidus L.L.C, a major provider of defence equipment, technology and services based in Abu Dhabi) (Generation 5) and another institutional investor focussed on the defence sector (Strategic Placement Participant) at A$8.00 per Share (Strategic Placement Shares) as follows:
- 3,750,000 Strategic Placement Shares to Generation 5 to raise A$30 million; and
- 1,250,000 Strategic Placement Shares to the Strategic Placement Participant to raise A$10 million,
(together with the Institutional Placement, the Placement).
For further details of the Placement, please refer to the Company's announcements dated 18 May 2026 and 20 May 2026.
Proceeds from the Placement and the Company's proposed share purchase plan (SPP), together with the secured term loan facility provided by Washington H. Soul Pattinson (as previously announced on 12 January 2026), will be used to fund the upfront consideration of the MARSS acquisition, and increase balance sheet flexibility to pursue growth opportunities and execute on strategic initiatives.
General
Resolution 1 seeks the approval of Shareholders for the issue of 3,750,000 Strategic Placement Shares to Generation 5 under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.
Listing Rule 7.1
Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a listed company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12-month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12-month period. As the issue of the Strategic Placement Shares to Generation 5 does not fit within any of the exceptions to Listing Rule 7.1 (and exceeds the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1), approval from the Company's Shareholders is required to be obtained for the issue of the Strategic Placement Shares to Generation 5.
To this end, Resolution 1 seeks the required Shareholder approval to the issue of 3,750,000 Strategic Placement Shares to Generation 5 under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolution 1 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue and raise $30 million for the purposes outlined in the 'Background' above. In addition, the issue will be excluded from the calculation of the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

E O S E L E C T R O O P T I C S I S T E M S

Board recommendation

E O S E L E C T R O O P T I C S Y S T E M S
The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.
Item 3: Ratification of prior issue of Performance Rights in connection with acquisition of MARSS
Background
As announced to ASX on 12 January 2026, the Company has entered into a binding agreement to acquire the MARSS group business (MARSS) and, as announced to ASX on 15 May 2026, the Company agreed to certain amendments to the binding agreement (as amended, the MARSS Agreement) and the acquisition of MARSS was completed on 21 May 2026.
MARSS is a defence and security technology provider focused on developing and marketing sensor-fusion technology and AI-enabled C2 systems primarily for counter-drone use. The acquisition includes MARSS' NiDAR C2 technology, sensor-fusion and AI software platform and hardware offering, along with associated customer contracts, intellectual property and personnel.
Under the terms of the MARSS Agreement, the Company agreed to pay the following consideration to acquire the MARSS business:
- upfront cash payment of €36m payable to the MARSS vendors; plus
- additional contingent consideration of up to €140m in value payable to management shareholders of MARSS via a three tranche earnout (Earnout) which was facilitated by way of the issue of 21 performance rights (MARSS Performance Rights) to such MARSS management shareholders on completion of the MARSS acquisition, which occurred on 21 May 2026. If the Earnout is achieved, the Performance Rights will vest into a maximum of 28,942,814 Shares at a price of:
- in respect of the first 23,529 411 Shares, A$7.40 per Share; and
- in respect of the next 5,413,403 Shares, at a conversion price equal to the volume weighed average of the Share price in the 5 trading days (converted into euros at the exchange rate on the day) prior to completion of the acquisition of MARSS ("New Conversion Price").
If the aggregate amount payable under the MARSS Performance Rights exceeds the value of those 28,942,814 Shares at those prices, the balance will be payable in cash.
Further details of the Earnout and the MARSS acquisition (including the amendments agreed to by the Company on 15 May 2026) are set out in the Company's announcements to ASX. The announcement dated 12 January 2026 and titled 'Acquisition of MARSS Counter-Drone C2 System Provider' provides details of the MARSS business, and the announcement dated 15 May 2026 and titled 'Capital Raising to Support Growth Opportunities' provides details of the amendments to the MARSS Agreement.
ASX Listing Rule 7.4
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 restricts the number of Equity Securities which a listed entity may issue in any 12 month period, without the approval of Shareholders, to 15% of the number of securities on issue at the start of the period, subject to certain adjustments and permitted exceptions.
The issue of the MARSS Performance Rights under the MARSS Agreement does not fit within any of the exceptions in the ASX Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by the Shareholders, it uses all of the Company's 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. This reduces the Company's capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date of the agreements to issue of the MARSS Performance Rights.
ASX Listing Rule 7.4 provides that an issue of securities is deemed to have been made with Shareholder approval if ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not breached at the time the securities were issued and Shareholders subsequently approve the issue of Equity Securities. If Shareholders ratify the issue of the MARSS Performance Rights pursuant to the resolution in Item 3 the issue of the MARSS Performance Rights (and the 28,942,814 Shares into which they vest) is taken to have been approved under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and the issue of the MARSS Performance Rights and the Shares into which they vest will not reduce the Company's capacity to issue further Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 over the following 12 month period.
To this end, the resolution in Item 3 seeks Shareholder ratification for the issue by the Company of the MARSS Performance Rights (and the 28,942,814 Shares into which they may vest) under the MARSS Agreement, and for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.4.
If Shareholders approve the resolution in Item 3, the issue of the MARSS Performance Rights (and the 28,942,814 Shares into which they may vest) will be excluded in calculating the Company's 15% placement capacity in ASX Listing Rule 7.1. This
Page | 10
E O S E L E C T R O O P T I C S Y S T E M S
increases the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the dates of the agreements to issue of the MARSS Performance Rights.
If Shareholder approval is not obtained
If Shareholders do not approve the resolution in Item 3, the issue of the MARSS Performance Rights (and the 28,942,814 Shares into which they vest) will remain as issued under the Company's 15% placement capacity in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 for a period of 12 months following their dates of agreements to issue. This decreases the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the dates of agreements of issue of the MARSS Performance Rights.
Information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.5
The following information is provided to Shareholders to allow them to assess the resolution in Item 3, including for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.5:
i. Names of the persons to whom the MARSS Performance Rights are to be issued or the basis on which those persons were identified or selected

vi If the securities were granted under an agreement a summary of the material terms of the agreement
The material terms of the agreement under which the MARSS Performance Rights were issued are set out in ASX announcements released by the Company to ASX on 12 January 2026 titled 'Acquisition of MARSS Counter-Drone C2 System Provider' and on 15 May 2026 titled 'Capital Raising to Support Growth Opportunities'. For ease of reference, a summary of the material terms of the agreement under which the MARSS Performance Rights were issued is set out below:
-
The MARSS acquisition is structured as an asset acquisition, with consideration consisting of an upfront cash payment and an earnout, being additional contingent consideration tied to new MARSS sales:
-
upfront cash payment of €36m; plus
- a potential earnout amount of up to €20m for each €100m (or part thereof) of certain new MARSS third party contract orders (up to €700m) secured prior to the end of the earnout period. The earnout payment

is capped at €140m, subject to adjustments and is payable in a combination of cash (capped at €20m) and EOS shares. Further details are below.
-
As noted above, the MARSS acquisition involved the issue of contingent consideration payable to MARSS Management Shareholders via a three tranche earnout (Earnout) which was facilitated by way of the issue of 21 MARSS Performance Rights to such MARSS Management Shareholders on completion of the MARSS acquisition. If the Earnout is achieved, the Performance Rights will vest into a maximum of 28,942,814 Shares at a price of, in respect of the first 23,529 411 Shares, A$7.40 per Share and, in respect of the next 5,413,403 Shares, the New Conversion Price per Share. If the aggregate amount payable under the MARSS Performance Rights exceeds the value of those 28,942,814 Shares at those prices, the balance will be payable in cash.
-
The Earnout period began on 11 January 2026 and ends on the earlier of 12 months from completion of the MARSS acquisition or 31 May 2027 (Earnout Period).
-
The Earnout value is €20m per €100m of the contract price of certain new MARSS third party contract orders signed before the end of the Earnout Period, calculated with the total potential earnout capped at €140m, subject to adjustments (Base Earnout Amount). The value of new MARSS contract orders excludes uncommitted amounts and certain items beyond three years and is subject to other customary conditions.
-
The earnout consideration is payable in up to three tranches, based on the new MARSS contract orders signed in the period starting at the beginning of the earnout period and ending:
-
for the first tranche, 90 days after completion of the MARSS acquisition;
- for the second tranche, 210 days after completion of the MARSS acquisition; and
-
for the third tranche, at the end of the Earnout Period.
-
The first tranche of earnout consideration (if any) is payable in EOS shares (subject to the placement capacity cap described below) or cash (at the election of the MARSS Management Shareholders) after the conclusion of the first tranche period, with the cash component capped at €20m. The second and third tranches of earnout consideration (if any) are payable in EOS shares after the conclusion of the second and third tranche periods, respectively. If sufficient contracts are signed during a tranche period, the entire earnout payment of €140m could be earned in that tranche period (provided that the cap on all earnout payments is €140m). The payment of the earnout payments in shares is subject to the placement capacity cap. That is, if the aggregate amount payable under the MARSS Performance Rights exceeds the value of the 23,529 411 Shares at A$7.40 per Share and 5,413,403 Shares at the New Conversion Price per Share, the balance will be payable in cash.
-
The MARSS Performance Rights will be issued to the MARSS Management Shareholders on completion of the MARSS transaction. Each MARSS Management Shareholder received three classes of performance rights (corresponding to the first, second and third tranches of Earnout payments).
-
The MARSS Performance Rights will vest into Shares (subject to the placement capacity cap and the first tranche cash election described above) to the extent of the Base Earnout Amount reduced by (in respect of the first tranche) any Earnout consideration paid in cash, and certain adjustments (for any agreed claims and other matters), the (Earnout Amount).
-
The MARSS Performance Rights vest, subject to satisfaction of the vesting conditions attaching to such performance rights, into a number of Shares calculated by dividing the Earnout Amount up to €100m by the agreed Share price of A$7.40 per Share and, to the extent that the Earnout Amount exceeds €100m, dividing the excess by an agreed Share price of the New Conversion Price per Share. The agreed share prices were based on the 25-day volume weighed average price of the Shares traded on ASX up to 9 January 2026 which equates to €4.25 or A$7.40 per Share, and on the 5-day volume weighed average price of the Shares traded on ASX up to completion of the MARSS acquisition.
-
The Company has agreed to advance an amount of up to €12m MARSS Management Shareholders and other MARSS vendors as advance earn-out payments and for working capital purposes. These amounts will be set off against the earnout in the first tranche period. If no Earnout Amount is earned in that period, the amounts are repayable to the Company on demand.
-
Subject to the nomination of a suitable candidate, the Board has agreed to appoint a nominee of MARSS Management Shareholders as a Director to the Board if at any time the MARSS Management Shareholders collectively hold Shares in excess of 15% of the Company's share capital and only so long as these Shares continue to be held.
-
If a Director nominated by the MARSS Management Shareholders is appointed, the MARSS Management Shareholders agree to vote their Shares (up to a 19.99% cap, when aggregated with any other relevant interest the
