==> picture [18 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

The Offer

The Offer is being made as a pro-rata non-renounceable entitlement issue of three (3) new FPO Shares for every five (5) Shares held by Eligible Shareholders registered at the Record Date at an issue price of $0.025 per FPO Share.

All of the FPO Shares offered under this Prospectus following issue will rank equally with the FPO Shares on issue at the date of this Prospectus. Please refer to section 5 for further information regarding the rights and liabilities attaching to the FPO Shares.

By paying for your FPO Shares through BPAY[®] or EFT in accordance with the instructions provided on your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form, you acknowledge that you have read this Prospectus and you have acted in accordance with and agree to the terms of the Offer detailed in this Prospectus.

==> picture [19 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Existing Convertible Security Holders

The Company has 16,327,679 Options and 1,619,051 Performance Rights (together, Convertible Securities ) on issue as at the date of this Prospectus.

Holders of Convertible Securities must exercise, or their Convertible Securities must convert, prior to the Record Date in order to participate in the Offer in respect of the Shares underlying their Convertible Securities.

Whilst the Board does not expect any Convertible Securities to be exercised or to convert prior to completion of the Offer, if all Convertible Securities are exercised and converted, as the case maybe (and the resultant Shares issued), before the Record Date, the Offer will increase by approximately 10,768,038 FPO Shares taking the aggregate (new) FPO Shares that may be subscribed for under the Offer to a total of approximately 58,773,571 FPO Shares and the funds raised will increase by approximately $269,201 to a total of approximately $1,469,339 (before costs and rounding).

==> picture [20 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

Non-renounceable Offer

The Offer is non-renounceable, which means that Eligible Shareholders may not sell or transfer all or any part of their Entitlement to subscribe for FPO Shares under the Offer. If you do not take up your Entitlement to FPO Shares under the Offer by the Closing Date, the Offer to you will lapse. The FPO Shares in your Entitlement that are not taken up by you will form part of the Shortfall.

==> picture [20 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

No minimum subscription

There is no minimum subscription for the Offer but the Offer is fully underwritten.

==> picture [20 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Underwriting

The Offer is underwritten by Martin Place Securities Pty Limited ( the Underwriter ) for the full amount of the Offer (subject to the Assumption), being $1,200,138, upon and

Page 6 of 30

==> picture [20 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [45 x 59] intentionally omitted <==

subject to the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement the material term of which are summarised in section 7.4.

Shortfall Offer

Any Shares not taken up as of Entitlement will be the subject of the Shortfall Offer.

The Shortfall Offer is a separate offer made pursuant to this Prospectus and will remain open for up to three (3) months following the Closing Date. The issue price for each FPO Share to be issued under the Shortfall Offer shall be $0.025, being the price at which FPO Shares have been offered under the Offer.

Any FPO Shares issued under the Shortfall Offer shall be issued on the same terms as FPO Shares being offered under the Offer.

Eligible Shareholders may apply for additional FPO Shares under the Shortfall Offer in accordance with their Entitlement and Acceptance Form and by paying the appropriate Application Monies in accordance with the instructions provided with the Entitlement and Acceptance Form.

Additionally, other investors who are not currently Shareholders who wish to participate in the Shortfall Offer, may apply for Shortfall Shares by following the instructions set out on the Shortfall Application Form and paying the appropriate Application Monies. The Company or the Underwriter will provide such investors with a Shortfall Application Form for Shortfall Shares.

The Directors reserve the right to issue any Shortfall pursuant to the Shortfall Offer at their discretion, subject to the Underwriting Agreement.

In accordance with the Underwriting Agreement, Shortfall Shares under the Shortfall Offer will be allocated as follows:

  • (a) firstly, the Company has the right to allocate Shortfall to Eligible Shareholders who have validly applied for Shortfall Shares before the Closing Date, to be allocated by the Board in its discretion;

  • (b) then, the Company has the right to allocate Shortfall to other investors it has identified, to be allocated by the Board in its discretion;

  • (c) then to the Underwriter and its nominees (including any sub-underwriters). The Company has the right to allocate Shortfall to sub-underwriters, in proportions determined by the Company acting reasonably in consultation with the Underwriter;

with allocations (and any scale back) taking account of the following factors, namely, the need to:

  • (d) give preference to existing Shareholders of the Company in recognition of their ongoing support;

  • (e) consider any new potential long-term or cornerstone investors identified; and

  • (f) ensure an appropriate Shareholder base for the Company.

No Shortfall Shares will be issued to a party under the Shortfall Offer if the effect would be to increase that party’s Voting Power in the Company from 10% or below, to more than 10%, or from a starting point that is above 10% to a greater percentage unless the Board, in its sole discretion, elects otherwise, and then up to a cap of 19.99%.

Page 7 of 30

==> picture [45 x 59] intentionally omitted <==

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Prospectus, the Directors reserve the right to issue an Applicant a lesser number of Shortfall Shares than applied for or no Shortfall Shares at all. All decisions regarding the allocation of Shortfall Shares will be made by the Directors, in conjunction with the Underwriter where required by the Underwriting Agreement, and will be final and binding on all Applicants under the Shortfall Offer. As such, there is no guarantee that any Shortfall Shares applied for will be issued to Applicants.

The Company will have no liability to any Applicant who receives no (or less than the number of) Shortfall Shares applied for under the Shortfall Offer. If the Company scales back any applications for Shortfall Shares under the Shortfall Offer any application monies will be pro rata returned (without interest) in accordance with the provisions of the Corporations Act.

The issued capital of the Company on a fully diluted basis (i.e. all partly paid Shares, Options and Performance Rights converted into fully paid Shares) as at the date of this Prospectus would be 97,955,952 Shares and on completion of the Offer (assuming Fully Subscribed and subject to the Assumption) would be 147,961,485 Shares.

==> picture [21 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Potential dilution of Shareholders

Shareholders should note that if they do not participate in the Offer, their Shareholdings will be diluted and their percentage Shareholdings in the Company will be reduced by 37.5% (as compared to their holdings and number of Shares on issue as at the date of the Prospectus) based on the Assumption.

The dilutionary effect is the maximum percentage on the assumption that those Entitlements not accepted are placed under the Shortfall Offer. In the event all Entitlements are not accepted and some or all of the resulting Shortfall was not subsequently placed, the dilution effect for each Shareholder not accepting their Entitlement would be a lesser percentage.

==> picture [21 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

Details of substantial holders

Based on publicly available information, the Company’s has no substantial holders (i.e. Shareholders with Voting Power of 5% or more in the Company’s Shares), as at the date of this Prospectus.

==> picture [21 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Effect of Offer on Control of the Company

If all Shareholders take up their Entitlements in full, the Offer will not have a material effect on the control of the Company.

Page 14 of 30

==> picture [45 x 59] intentionally omitted <==

If no Eligible Shareholders take up any of their Entitlements, the Directors will be entitled to place the Shortfall in their absolute discretion subject to the Underwriting Agreement.

As the Company is listed, any potential acquisition of Shares will be subject to the prohibitions set out in section 606 of the Corporations Act. Therefore, unless the Shortfall Shares are placed pursuant to one of the exceptions set out in section 611 of the Corporations Act (such as to the Underwriter, with approval by resolution of Shareholders or “3% creep in 6 months”), the Company will not be entitled to place the Shortfall to any person if it would cause that person’s or someone else’s Voting Power in the Company to increase from 20% or below to more than 20%, or from a starting point that is above 20% and below 90%.

The Underwriter holds 200,000 FPO Shares on the date of this Prospectus (being a 0.2% shareholding) but is not a related party of the Company. The Underwriter has advised the Company that, as at the date of this Prospectus:

  • (a) it and its Associates Voting Power in the Company is 0.26%; and

  • (b) it and its Associates do not hold any other securities of the Company.

In the unlikely event that no Entitlements are taken up and no Shortfall is placed other than to the Underwriter, the Underwriter’s Shareholding will increase to 37.7% of the Company (and its Voting Power to 38.2% - slightly higher due to the Company’s Contributing Shares only having a fraction of a vote equivalent to the proportion which the amount paid up bears to the total amount paid and payable in respect thereof).

The more likely event is that a proportion of Entitlements will be taken up and some or all of the Shortfall will be issued to Shareholders and third-party investors as nominees of the Board and/or Underwriter. The table below sets out the Underwriter’s Shareholding and Voting Power in several scenarios where a proportion of Entitlements are taken up (and assuming the Underwriter takes up its full Entitlement).

Notes:

  2. By the applicable Related Party Sub-underwriter and its Associates assuming the Related Parties take up their full Entitlement and sub-underwritten Shortfall Shares. Refer to Section 7.5 for further details of existing Shareholding of the Related Party Subunderwriters and their Associates. Voting Power is slightly lower due to the Related Parties Sub-underwriters and their Associates holding Contributing Shares that only having a fraction of a vote equivalent to the proportion which the amount paid up bears to the aggregate of the amount paid and payable in respect thereof.

The Underwriter has entered into sub-underwriting agreements with the Related Party Subunderwriters that:

  • (a) provide for the Underwriter to pay them a sub-underwriting fee equal to 2.5% (plus GST) of the amount of the Offer a Related Party Sub-underwriter sub-underwrites, being up to a maximum of $375 (plus GST) in respect of Peter Thomas and $1,250 (plus GST) in respect of Wonfair; and

  • (b) contains customary terms for an agreement of that nature, including standard termination rights for the sub-underwriter for a range of circumstances including the Offer being withdrawn, the Prospectus being misleading, adverse regulatory decisions, insolvency, delay in timetable and force majeure.

5. Rights and Liabilities attaching to FPO Shares

All Shares to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus will be issued as FPO Shares in the capital of the Company and will rank equally with existing FPO Shares.

Further details of the rights and obligations attaching to FPO Shares are set out in the Company’s Constitution, which can be obtained from the Company’s website (https://emunl.com.au) or its registered office at no cost, or from ASIC.

A constitution has the effect of a contract between the Company and each member, between the Company and each Director and company secretary, and between a member and each other member under which each of those persons agrees to observe and perform the provisions of the constitution as far as those provisions apply to that person. A company's constitution can only be altered by a special resolution (being a resolution passed by at least 75% of the votes cast by members entitled to vote on the resolution).

The Constitution deals with such matters as the rights conferred and obligations imposed by Shares, issues of Shares, transfer of Shares, alterations of share capital, Share buy-backs, disposal of small shareholdings (being parcels of shareholdings with a market value less than that an amount prescribed under the Listing Rules - $500 as at the date of this Prospectus), variation of class rights, meetings of

Page 16 of 30

==> picture [45 x 59] intentionally omitted <==

shareholders, voting, polls, appointment and removal of Directors, remuneration of Directors, dividends, winding up and the ASX Listing Rules.

Investors should be aware the Company has two classes of partly paid Contributing Share on issue being (as at the date of this Prospectus):

  • (a) 1,349,586 listed Contributing Shares (ASX:EMUCA) paid to $0.90, with $0.90 to pay; and

  • (b) 1,166,670 unlisted Contributing Shares paid to $0.003, with $1.20 to pay, no call before 31 December 2025 or such later date or dates as determined by the Board from time to time in its absolute discretion.

The Contributing Shares are on the same terms and conditions as FPO Shares on issue subject to the material differences noted in the following observations:

  • (a) the Contributing Shares are not fully paid (holders have no obligation to meet a call (“ Call ”) made by the Company for the payment of any of the unpaid amount). However, non-payment of a properly made Call will result in the forfeiture of the relevant Contributing Shares);

  • (b) if there is a re-organisation of the issued capital of the Company (including, but not limited to, a consolidation, subdivision, cancellation, reduction or return of capital):

  • (i) the number of Contributing Shares must be reorganised in the same proportion as all other classes of shares on issue; and

  • (ii) the re-organisation must not involve a cancellation or reduction of the total amount payable and unpaid by holders of Contributing Shares;

  • (c) irrespective of whether the Company has made a Call for the payment of all or any of the unpaid amount, each Contributing Share:

  • (i) carries the right to participate in new issues (except bonus issues) of securities made to holders of Shares as if the Contributing Shares were fully paid Shares;

  • (ii) carries the right to participate in bonus issues of securities in the proportion which the amount paid (or, if applicable, aggregate of amounts paid) (not credited) bears to the total of the amounts paid and payable and each holder (“Holder”) of a Contributing Share will be notified by the Company of any proposed bonus issue of securities at least 7 days prior to the record date for any such issue;

  • (iii) entitles the Holder to (i) exercise voting rights on a pro-rata basis in the proportion which the amount (or, if applicable, aggregate of amounts) paid bears to the total of the amounts paid and payable; and (ii) fully participate in dividends as if the Contributing Shares were a fully paid Share;

  • (iv) is freely transferable; and

  • (v) upon being paid up in full shall rank equally in all respects with FPO Shares then on issue and the Company shall promptly apply for them to be listed on the ASX (and each or any other exchange on which shares of the Company are traded).

6. Risk factors

==> picture [18 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Introduction

An investment in the Company is not risk free and the Directors strongly recommend potential investors consider the risk factors described below, together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus, publicly available information, circumstances peculiar to them and that they consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Shares pursuant to this Prospectus.

There are specific risks which relate directly to the Company’s business. In addition, there are general risks, many if not all of which are largely beyond the control of the Company and the Directors. The risks identified in this section, or other risk factors, may have a material impact on the financial performance of the Company and the market price of the FPO Shares.

The Shares 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 Shares.

Potential investors should consider that investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Shares under this Prospectus.

The following is not intended to be an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company and investors in the Company are exposed.

==> picture [19 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Company specific risks

(a) Exploration Results

The Company has recently sent an exploration team to its Fiery Creek Copper prospect in Georgetown, Queensland. Soil, rock and termite mound sampling was conducted as well as a pXRF sampling programme to provide feedback on mineralisation. LIDAR and photogrammetry drone surveys have also been completed and will provide high resolution topographical and photographic definition of structural settings which will also improve access route and drill planning.

Some of these results may be provided to the Company during the Offer. No assurance can be given that these exploration results will be favourable. Any results that are not favourable may materially adversely affect the Company’s Share price and future prospects.

  • (b) Potential for significant dilution

Upon completion of the Offer, based on the Assumption, the number of Shares in the Company will increase from 80,009,222 to 128,104,755 Shares. This means that each Share will represent a significantly lower proportion of the ownership of the Company and a Shareholder who does not take up its Entitlement will be diluted such that the percentage Shareholding in the Company is reduced by 37.5%, while their Voting Power in the Company will be reduced to 38% of their current Voting Power (the slightly greater effect on Voting Power from the Offer is due to the Company’s

Page 18 of 30

==> picture [45 x 59] intentionally omitted <==

Contributing Shares having only having a fraction of a vote equivalent to the proportion which the amount paid up bears to the total issue price).

(c) Additional requirements for capital

The Company’s future capital requirements, and the Company’s ability to satisfy those requirements, depend on numerous factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company.

It is likely that the Company will require further funding in addition to amounts raised under the Offer. Any additional equity financing will dilute shareholdings. Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictions on the Company’s activities. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funding as needed, it may be required to reduce the scope of its operations, dispose of assets or scale back its exploration programmes, as the case may be.

The Company’s ability to raise funds through the issue of Shares or other securities is subject to share market conditions from time to time. The market for securities in junior exploration companies fluctuates.

There is no certainty that the Company will be able to secure any additional funding or be able to secure funding on terms favourable to the Company and its Shareholders.

(d) Executive Management

The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations and the Company’s strategic management depends substantially on its senior management and key personnel. There can be no assurance given that there will be no detrimental impact on the Company if one or more of these employees cease their employment.

==> picture [20 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Industry specific risks

(a) Exploration success

The future profitability of the Company and the value of its securities is likely to be directly related to the results of exploration on its current and/or future projects. The exploration tenements held by the Company are at various stages of exploration and potential investors should understand that minerals exploration and development are high-risk undertakings. There can be no assurance that exploration of these tenements, or any other tenements that may be acquired, will result in discovery of an economic ore deposit. Even if an apparently viable deposit is identified, there is no guarantee that it can ultimately be economically exploited.

The Company’s future exploration activities may be affected by a range of factors including geological conditions, limitations on activities due to seasonal weather patterns, unanticipated operational and technical difficulties, industrial and environmental accidents, native title processes and laws relating to Aboriginal heritage and other first Australian matters, changing government regulations and many other factors beyond the Company’s control.

The Company’s success will be adversely affected if the Company is unable to maintain, renew or replace title to its tenements and obtain all required

Page 19 of 30

==> picture [45 x 59] intentionally omitted <==

approvals for its activities. In the event that exploration programmes prove to be unsuccessful, this would likely and be expected to lead to diminution in the value of the Company’s tenements, and possible relinquishment of tenements.

The Company’s anticipated exploration costs are based on certain assumptions with respect to the method and timing of exploration. By their nature, these estimates and assumptions are subject to significant uncertainties and, accordingly, the actual costs may be materially different from these estimates and assumptions. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that any cost estimates or the underlying assumptions will be realised in practice, which may materially and adversely affect the Company’s viability.

(b) Tenure risks and native title

Interests in tenements in Australia are governed by the mining legislation of the respective States. Each licence or lease is for a specific term and carries with it annual expenditure and reporting commitments, as well as other conditions requiring compliance. Consequently, the Company could lose title to or its interest in tenements if licence conditions are not met or if insufficient funds are available to meet expenditure commitments.

If exploration is successful, the Company will not be able to exploit any mineral deposit unless the Company first acquires a mining lease. The grant of a mining lease is subject to ministerial discretion.

Additionally, in areas where native title exists or may exist, the ability of the Company to acquire a valid mining lease may also be subject to compliance with the ‘right to negotiate’ process under the Native Title Act. Compliance with this process can (and usually does) cause delays in obtaining the grant of a mining lease and ultimately there can be no guarantee that a mining lease will be granted. Attaining a negotiated agreement with native title claimants or holders to facilitate the grant of a valid mining generally adds significantly to the costs and timetabling of any development or mining operation.

The ability of the Company to conduct activities on exploration or mining tenements is subject to compliance with Aboriginal heritage laws. Conduct of site surveys to ensure compliance can be and mostly are expensive and subject to delays. If any Aboriginal sites are located within areas of proposed exploration, mining or other activities, the ability of the Company to conduct those activities may be dependent on the Company obtaining further regulatory consents or approvals none of which can be assured.

7. Additional information

==> picture [18 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Litigation

As at the date of this Prospectus, the Company is not involved in any legal proceedings and the Directors are not aware of any legal proceedings pending or threatened against the Company Group.

Page 20 of 30

==> picture [19 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Continuous disclosure obligations

==> picture [45 x 59] intentionally omitted <==

The Company is a “disclosing entity” 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. Under section 677 of the Corporations Act, a reasonable person is taken to expect information to have a material effect on the price or value of the Company’s quoted securities if the information would, or would be likely to, influence persons who commonly invest in securities in deciding whether to acquire or dispose of the Company’s quoted securities. The Offer is an offer of FPO Shares which are ‘continuously quoted securities’ for the purposes of the Corporations Act.

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

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

  • (b) copies of documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company may be obtained from, or inspected at, the offices of the ASIC; and

  • (c) the Company 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:

  • (i) the annual financial report most recently lodged by the Company with ASIC;

  • (ii) any half-year financial report lodged by the Company with the ASIC after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC; and

  • (iii) any continuous disclosure notices given by the Company to ASX in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules as referred to in section 674(1) of the Corporations Act after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with ASIC.

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

Underwriting Agreement

The Offer is fully underwritten (up to a maximum of 48,005,533 Shares) ( Underwritten Shares ) by Martin Place Securities Pty Limited ( the Underwriter ) at $0.025 per FPO Share under an underwriting agreement between those parties dated on or about 28 May 2024 ( Underwriting Agreement ).

The Company must notify the Underwriter of the number of Shortfall Shares, if any, it has allocated to Shareholders and other investors following which the Company, in consultation with the Underwriter, has the sole right to nominate and determine who is to receive the remaining Shortfall Securities, provided that any sub-underwriters will receive Shortfall Securities in proportions determined by the Company acting reasonably and in consultation with the Underwriter.

The Company has agreed to pay the Underwriter the following fees for its services:

(a) an underwriting fee equal to 2% (plus GST) of the Underwritten Amount of $1,200,138 (being a fee of ~$24,003 plus GST); and

  • (b) a shortfall placement fee of 4% (plus GST) of the total subscription price for the Shortfall Shares paid by the Underwriter and its nominees (including subunderwriters).

The Company will also:

  • (a) subject to A$1,200,138 being raised under the Offer, issue to the Underwriter (or its nominees) 1,000,000 unlisted Options exercisable at A$0.10 expiring 31 May 2025 and 1,000,000 unlisted Options exercisable at A$0.14 after 1 June 2025 but on or before 31 May 2026;

  • (b) reimburse the Underwriter for all reasonable costs and reasonable expenses of and incidental to the Offer up to an amount of $2,000 (or such higher amount as consented to by the Company).

The Underwriter must not offer Underwritten Shares to a party that would acquire or thereby increase its Shareholding to more than 9.9% of the issued ordinary Shares of the Company on completion of the Offer, without the prior written consent of the Company.

The Underwriter has the right to terminate the Underwriting Agreement in a range of circumstances. Many clauses typical in underwriting agreements (mostly relating to falls in indices) do not apply to the Underwriting Agreement but others do, including (without limitation) where:

  • (a) the Company lodges a Supplementary Prospectus without the prior written agreement of the Underwriter (which agreement the Underwriter may not unreasonably withhold);

  • (b) the Company is prevented from issuing the Underwritten Securities within the time required by this Agreement, the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules, any statute, regulation or order of a court of competent jurisdiction by ASIC, ASX or any court of competent jurisdiction or any governmental or semi-governmental agency or authority;

  • (c) it transpires that there is a statement in the Prospectus that is misleading or deceptive or likely to mislead or deceive, or that there is an omission from the Prospectus or if any statement in the Prospectus becomes misleading or deceptive or likely to mislead or deceive or if the issue of the Prospectus is or becomes misleading or deceptive or likely to mislead or deceive, and in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriter reached when acting reasonably, the event has or is likely to have, or those events together have, or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect or could give rise to a liability of the Underwriter under the Corporations Act;

  • (d) the Takeovers Panel makes a declaration that circumstances in relation to the affairs of the Company are unacceptable circumstances under Pt 6.10 of the Corporations Act, which in the Underwriter’s reasonable opinion has a Material Adverse Effect; or

  • (e) certain events occur that, in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriter reached when acting reasonably, has or is likely to have, or those events together have, or could reasonably be expected to have, a Materially Adverse Effect or could give rise to a liability of the Underwriter under the Corporations Act.

The Company provides a wide-ranging indemnity to the Underwriter (and each of its respective related bodies corporate and its respective directors, officers, employees,

Page 24 of 30

==> picture [45 x 59] intentionally omitted <==

partners, agents, shareholders and advisers) covering various matters including making the Offer, breach of contract or warranty by the Company, claims relating to the Offer and promotion of the Offer but the indemnity does not extend to the Underwriter’s liability for failure to meet its underwriting obligation.

The Underwriting Agreement otherwise contains terms and conditions considered standard for agreements of this nature.

Financial forecasts

The Directors have considered the matters set out in ASIC Regulatory Guide 170 and believe that they do not have a reasonable basis to forecast future earnings on the basis that the operations of the Company are inherently uncertain. Accordingly, any forecast or projection information would contain such a broad range of potential outcomes and possibilities that it is not possible to prepare a reliable best estimate forecast or projection.

This Prospectus is issued by the Company and its issue has been authorised by a resolution of the Directors.
