2.5 Voting exclusions

Pursuant to requirements of the Corporations Act and Listing Rules, voting exclusions apply to Resolution q. Please refer to discussion of the Resolution in the Notice for details of the applicable voting exclusions.

3. Background to Resolution 1

On 16 August 2023, the Company announced that it had reached agreement with BTR New Materials Co. Ltd ( BTR ) on a series of transactions ( BTR Transactions ) that, on completion, will position the Company (via a downstream entity to be agreed with BTR) as a vertically integrated producer of lithium-ion battery ( LiB ) anode materials using flake graphite from its Chilalo Graphite Project located in south-east Tanzania.

BTR is the global leader in the manufacturing of LiB anode materials and has substantial capability in research and development which ensures it remains at the forefront of LiB technology advancements.

The BTR Transactions[1] comprise three agreements:

  • (a) an investment agreement ( BTR Investment Agreement ) under which, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, BTR will subscribe for Shares ( BTR Shares ) representing 9.90% of Evolution’s issued Shares on a post-issue basis (taking into account the issuance of the BTR Shares). Pursuant to an amendment to the BTR Investment Agreement, as announced to ASX on 22 January 2024, the price at which the BTR Shares will be issued was adjusted from $0.22 per Share to $0.14 per Share. Accordingly, the BTR Shares will be issued at a price of $0.14 per BTR Share. A summary of the material terms of the BTR Investment Agreement, as amended is set out in Schedule 2.

  • (b) a memorandum of understanding covering a downstream processing collaboration between BTR and Evolution for (i) the production of battery anode materials, with an initial focus on North America and (ii) BTR’s further participation in the financing of the development of Chilalo; and

  • (c) an offtake agreement under which, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions,[2] BTR will purchase 100% of the fine flake graphite produced at the Chilalo Project for three years (with an option to extend for an additional three years).

The issue of the BTR Shares under the BTR Investment Agreement was originally subject to the following conditions precedent:

1 For more detailed information on the BTR Transactions, see the Company’s ASX announcements dated 16 August 2023, 30 October 2023, 5 January 2024 and 22 January 2024.

2 For further information on the conditions to the Offtake Agreement with BTR, see the Company’s ASX announcement dated 16 August 2023.

Page 6

  • (a) BTR completing due diligence to its satisfaction;

  • (b) BTR receiving the regulatory approvals to enable completion of the issue of the BTR Shares;

  • (c) there being no material adverse event in respect of Evolution; and

  • (d) approval of Evolution shareholders.

As announced to ASX on 30 October 2023, the date for satisfaction of the conditions precedent under the BTR Investment Agreement was extended to 31 January 2024. Evolution and BTR have subsequently agreed to extend the date for satisfaction of the condition that relates to the approval of Shareholders to 15 March 2024.

Additionally, and as announced to ASX on 22 January 2024:

  • BTR notified the Company that it had completed its due diligence to its satisfaction and that the requisite regulatory approvals to enable the issue of the BTR Shares were in place. The only remaining conditions under the BTR Investment Agreement are (i) Evolution obtaining the approval of its Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 and (ii) there being no material adverse event in respect of Evolution; and

  • BTR and the Company agreed to adjust the issue price of the BTR Shares under the BTR Investment Agreement from $0.22 per Share to $0.14 per BTR Share, the equivalent price of the Company’s most recent capital raising.

Proceeds received from the issue of the BTR Shares will be applied to:

  • working with BTR to advance initiatives associated with the establishment of the proposed downstream processing facilities in the US, including site selection and anode offtake arrangements;

  • carrying out studies on the development of downstream processing facilities in the US;

  • completing the resettlement action plan, as a pre-requisite for development of the Company’s Chilalo Graphite Project; and

  • funding general working capital.

Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of the BTR Shares to BTR under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

Should Shareholders approve Resolution 1, the Company will have 261,217,143 Shares on issue, of which BTR will hold 25,860,000, representing a 9.90% interest in Evolution’s Shares.

4. Resolution 1 – Approval to issue the BTR Shares

4.1 Purpose of Resolution 1

Pursuant to the BTR Investment Agreement, BTR (and/or its nominee) has agreed to subscribe for, and the Company has agreed to issue to BTR (and/or its nominee) 25,860,000 Shares, representing 9.90% of Evolution’s issued Shares on a post-issue basis, conditional on the receipt of Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

Page 7

Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of 25,860,000 Shares to BTR (and/or its nominee).

4.2 Listing Rule 7.1

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of Equity Securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

The proposed issue of the BTR Shares does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2. As it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, the issue of the BTR Shares effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, thereby reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date of issue of the BTR Shares.

4.3

Information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 1 is passed:

  • (a) the Company will issue 25,860,000 Shares to BTR and receive proceeds of approximately $3.62 million; and

  • (b) the BTR Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the BTR Shares.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Company will not issue the BTR Shares and as a result, will not receive the proceeds of the issue of the BTR Shares and will have to consider alternative means of raising capital, which may be on terms, and involve costs, that are less favourable than the issuing of the BTR Shares.

Additionally, if Shareholders do not pass Resolution 1, completion under the Offtake Agreement may not occur as this agreement is conditional on the completion of the BTR Investment Agreement.

4.4 Information required by Listing Rule 7.3

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 1:

  • (a) the BTR Shares will be issued to BTR (and/or its nominee) in accordance with the terms of the BTR Investment Agreement;

  • (b) the number of BTR Shares to be issued to BTR (and/or its nominee) is 25,860,000 for proceeds of approximately $3,620,400.

  • (c) the BTR Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s currently issued and outstanding Shares;

  • (d) the BTR Shares will be issued 10 Business Days after the date of satisfaction of the conditions precedent in the BTR Investment Agreement, which is expected to be 14 March 2024 and, in any event, will be issued no later than three months after the date of the Meeting;

Page 8

  • (e) the BTR Shares will be issued at a price of $0.14 per BTR Share and the Company has not received (and will not receive) any other consideration for the issue of the BTR Shares under the BTR Investment Agreement;

  • (f) the purpose of the issue of the BTR Shares is to raise approximately $3.62 million, which funds are intended to be applied to those workstreams set out in section 3;

  • (g) the BTR Shares are being issued pursuant to the BTR Investment Agreement, the material terms of which are set out in Schedule 2; and

  • (h) a voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice for Resolution 1.
