Explanatory Memorandum

Section 5 is inserted into the Explanatory Memorandum as follows:

5. Resolution 4 – Approval of Changes of Option Terms

5.1 General

On 30 December 2021, the Company announced the appointment of Sixty Two Capital Pty Ltd ( Sixty Two Capital ) as corporate advisor. Pursuant to the corporate advisor mandate ( Mandate ), Sixty Two Capital is engaged for a period of 12 months to provide a range of corporate advisory services to the Company in connection with its capital markets requirements, investor relations and the identification of additional, value creating strategic opportunities.

In consideration for the corporate advisory services, the Company:

  • (a) will pay Sixty Two Capital a monthly retainer of $10,000 per month; and

  • (b) has issued 6,000,000 Options to Sixty Two Capital exercisable at $0.55 each on or before 31 December 2023 ( Corporate Advisory Options ).

The Sixty Two Capital Options were issued in the three tranches set out in the table below, each subject to the specified vesting condition based on the volume weighted average market price of the Company's Shares calculated over any 10 consecutive trading day period ( 10-Day VWAP ):

Table 1:

Tranche Number of Options Vesting condition
Tranche 1 1,000,000 10-Day VWAP of $0.60 or
above.
Tranche 2 2,000,000 10-Day VWAP of $0.70 or
above.
Tranche 3 3,000,000 10-Day VWAP of $0.90 or
above.

On 31 December 2021, the Company granted the Sixty Two Capital Options using its placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Page 5

5.2 Proposed Amendments to Vesting Condition

At present, the Corporate Advisory Options will only vest if the 10-Day VWAP satisfies the Tranche 1, Tranche 2 and Tranche 3 Vesting Conditions ( Vesting Conditions ) set out in Table 1.

Following the grant of the Corporate Advisory Options, ASX advised the Company that it did not consider the Corporate Advisory Options to be appropriate and equitable for the purpose of Listing Rule 6.1, on the basis that the use of vesting conditions tied to the market price of an entity’s securities was not an appropriate hurdle for options issued to corporate advisors or promoters.

Sixty Two Capital, in its role as Corporate Advisor, considers the long term sustained price appreciation of its clients to reflect its broader work strategic work identifying and evaluating potential growth strategies. The Company and Sixty Two Capital have agreed, subject to Shareholder approval, to remove the Vesting Conditions from the Corporate Advisory Option terms on the understanding that this change will permit ASX to consider the terms to be appropriate and equitable for the purpose of Listing Rule 6.1.

5.3

Listing Rule 6.23

Listing Rule 6.23.4 provides that a Company must obtain Shareholder approval to make a change to the terms of options on issue which is not prohibited under Listing Rule 6.23.3.

Listing Rule 6.23.3 prohibits a change to the terms of options which has the effect of reducing the exercise price, increasing the period for exercise or increasing the number of securities on exercise.

The proposed amendment is not prohibited under Listing Rule 6.23.3, as it does not have the effect of reducing the exercise price, increasing the period for exercise or increasing the number of securities to be received on exercise of the Options.

Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval to remove the Vesting Conditions.

In the event Shareholders approve Resolution 4, the Company and Sixty Two Capital will agree to amend the Sixty Two Capital Option terms to be consistent with the terms set out in Schedule 4.

In the event that Shareholders do not approve Resolution 4:

  • (a) the Company will withdraw Resolution 5, the effect on which is set out in Section 6.2 of this Notice; and

  • (b) the Company will be in technical breach of Listing Rule 6.1 until such time as it is able to amend or cancel the Sixty Two Capital Options. Such an outcome may require further Shareholder meetings and would be likely to adversely affect the financial position of the Company and the focus of management.

5.4

Board recommendation

The Board recommends Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4.

Page 6

6. Resolution 5 – Ratification of prior issue of Sixty Two Capital Options

6.1

Background

The background to the issue of the Corporate Advisory Options is set out in Section 5.

6.2 Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4

A summary of Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4 is provided in Section 3.2 of the Notice.

The issue of the Corporate Advisory Options does not fit within any of the exceptions to Listing Rule 7.1 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, effectively uses up part of the Company's placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1. This reduces the Company's capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under those Listing Rules for the 12 month period following the issue of the Corporate Advisory Options.

The effect of Shareholders passing Resolution 5 will be to allow the Company to retain the flexibility to issue Equity Securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1 and the additional 10% annual placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1A without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

If Resolution 5 is passed, 6,000,000 Corporate Advisory Options will be excluded in calculating the Company's 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

If Resolution 5 is not passed, 6,000,000 Corporate Advisory Options will continue to be included in the Company's 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue or agree to issue without obtaining prior Shareholder approval, to the extent of 6,000,000 Equity Securities for the 12 month period following the issue of the Corporate Advisory Options.

1.2 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.5

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to the ratification of the issue of the Corporate Advisory Options:

  • (a) The Corporate Advisory Options were issued to Sixty Two Capital on 31 December 2021.

  • (b) The Corporate Advisory Options were issued for nil cash consideration as they are being issued in consideration for corporate advisory services. Accordingly, nil funds were raised through the issue.

  • (c) The Corporate Advisory Options are exercisable at $0.55 each on or before 31 December 2023 and subject to Shareholders passing Resolution 4, are otherwise subject to the terms and conditions in Schedule 4.

  • (d) The Corporate Advisory Options were issued pursuant to the Mandate with Sixty Two Capital. Consideration payable under the Mandate is summarised above in Section 6.1. Either party can terminate the Mandate at any time by providing 30 days written notice. The terms and conditions of the Mandate are otherwise considered standard for this type of agreement.

  • (e) A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.

1.3 Board recommendation
