Explanatory Statement
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.
1. Resolution 1 – Issue of Consideration Securities – Acquisition of FastAI
1.1 General
On 15 December 2025, the Company announced it had entered into a binding agreement to secure the exclusive licence to the Nol8 Technology via the acquisition of 100% of the issued capital of FastAI Pty Ltd (ACN 672 932 606) ( Acquisition ).
The Company will, subject to receiving Shareholder approval, issue 155,000,000 Shares to the Vendors (or their respective nominees). 150,000,000 Performance Rights will be issued to FastAI shareholders involved in the ongoing development, commercialisation and promotion of the Nol8 Technology and FastAI’s business operations post settlement.
A summary of the material terms of the Agreement is set out in Schedule 1.
Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder approval to issue 155,000,000 Shares and 150,000,000 Performance Rights in consideration for the Acquisition.
1.2
FastAI and Nol8 Technology
FastAI, via its subsidiary, Celerriem Ltd (a company incorporated in Israel) ( Celerriem ), has been granted a licence to use the technology known as Nol8 (and its associated intellectual property) ( Nol8 ) ( Licence ) from The Technion Research & Development Foundation Ltd ( Technion ) pursuant to a formal agreement in respect of the Licence ( Licence Agreement ).
The vendors of FastAI are not related parties or current substantial holders of the Company.
The Acquisition, if completed, will result in the Company acquiring 100% of the issued share capital of FastAI, and therefore also having an indirect interest in the Licence for the use of Nol8.
Licence Agreement
Pursuant to the Licence Agreement, Technion grants Celerriem the Licence, being an exclusive, irrevocable, world-wide licence (with the right to grant sub-licences) for Celerriem (and its related bodies corporate) to use Nol8 for the development and commercialisation of “Products” (“Products” meaning any product, process, method, device or service that comprises, contains, uses, incorporates or is based upon Nol8 or any part thereof, and any derivate of the foregoing).
In consideration for the grant of the Licence, Technion will ultimately receive 20% of the consideration shares being issued in respect of the Acquisition. Celerriem will also pay Technion the following payments:
-
a 2.5% net sales royalty for sales of Products by Celerriem, its affiliates or sub-licensees;
-
a 15% sublicensing fee from any sub-licence fees received by Celerriem or any of its affiliates; and
-
an annual licence fee of US$20,000 commencing on the second anniversary of the grant of the licence which shall be set off against any royalty payments of sublicensing payments.
Celerriem also agrees to reimburse Technion for all past patent costs relating to prosecuting and maintaining the licensed information.
Nol8 Technology
Technion has developed Nol8 (formerly known as ClassifAI), a transformational data-processing engine to replace today’s slow, storage-dependent data pipelines with a real-time, high-performance “Data-in-Motion” architecture. Instead of analysing data after it reaches storage (“data-at-rest”), Nol8 processes and classifies data instantly as it flows — enabling live search, instant decisionmaking, and real-time action.
Nol8’s core innovation is a neural-network-enhanced algorithm based on Longest Prefix Matching (LPM) — traditionally used for high-speed networking — reimagined to classify and act upon any kind of live data stream.
Nol8 is an ultra-low latency, high-throughput binary search technology, which provides real-time intelligence with low latency at scale. The technology was purpose built for applications requiring speed, low latency and massive scale at economic costs including gaming.
Further detail of the Nol8 Technology is set out in the Company’s ASX announcement dated 15 December 2025.
Other information
On completion of the Acquisition, Mr Yosef Keret will join the Company’s board as a director. Mr Keret has over 20 years of leadership experience as a CEO/CFO in semiconductor, biotech and technology companies.
1.3 ASX Listing Rule 7.1
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a 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 ( Placement Capacity ).
The proposed issue does not fall within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and exceeds the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
1.4 Effect of the Resolution
If Resolution 1 is passed, then the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Consideration Securities in satisfaction of the acquisition of FastAI during the period of 3 months after the Meeting (or a longer period, if allowed by ASX), without using up any part of the Company’s Placement Capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the Acquisition.
1.5 Directors’ recommendation
The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.
1.6
Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.3
Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 1:
-
(a) the Consideration Securities will be issued to the Vendors (or their respective nominee(s)). The Company confirms that no Material Persons will be issued more than 1% of the issued capital of the Company;
-
(b) the maximum number of Consideration Securities to be issued is 155,000,000 Shares and 150,000,000 Performance Rights;
-
(c) the Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares. The Performance Rights will be issued on the terms and conditions set out in Schedule 1, split equally across the three classes;
-
(d) the Consideration Securities will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) and it is intended that issue of all the Consideration Securities will occur on the same date;
-
(e) the Consideration Securities will be issued for nil cash consideration, accordingly no funds will be raised from their issue;
-
(f) the purpose of the issue of the Consideration Securities is in consideration for the acquisition of FastAI; and
-
(g) the Consideration Securities are being issued pursuant to the Agreement, the material terms of which are summarised in Schedule 1.
2. Resolution 2 – Ratification of a prior issue of Securities – Joint Lead Managers Mandate Shares
2.1 General
On 24 June 2025, the Company announced it had received firm commitments for an additional placement of $2,300,000 through the issue of approximately 209 million Shares at $0.011 per Share ( Additional Placement ).
The Additional Placement was managed by the Joint Lead Managers, 708 Capital Pty Ltd and Sandton Capital Pty Ltd ( Joint Lead Managers ).
Under a Joint Lead Managers Mandate , the Joint Lead Managers acted as managers in respect of the Additional Placement. The Company paid a total fee of 6% of the gross proceeds of the Additional Placement, which fees were shared equally by the Joint Lead Managers.
On 26 June 2025, the Company announced the issue of 8,000,000 Shares to the Joint Lead Managers in lieu of part of the fees payable under the Joint Lead Managers Mandate. The balance of fees were paid in cash.
Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder approval to ratify the issue of these Shares pursuant to the Joint Lead Managers Mandate.
2.2
ASX Listing Rule 7.1
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is summarised at Section 1.3.
2.3 ASX Listing Rule 7.4
ASX Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1) those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
2.4 Effect of the Resolution
The issue of the Shares to the Joint Lead Managers did not fit within any of the exceptions from ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and was not subject to prior Shareholder approval and used up part of the Company’s Placement Capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, 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 their issue. At the time of issue, sufficient Placement Capacity was available that the issue of the securities the subject of Resolution 2 did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
By ratifying the issue of the Shares the subject of Resolution 2, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the Placement Capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval. The base figure (referred to as variable “A” in the formula in ASX Listing Rule 7.1) from which the Company’s Placement Capacity is calculated, will be a higher number which in turn will allow a proportionately higher number of securities to be issued without prior Shareholder approval.
If Resolution 2 is not passed, then the Company’s Placement Capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 will not be refreshed, the resulting being that the Shares the subject of Resolution 2 will continue to be included in calculating the Company’s use of the 15% limit under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without prior Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of their issue.
2.5
Board Recommendation
The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.
2.6
Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.5

If Resolution 3 is passed, then the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the 9,000,000 Options to the adviser (or their nominee(s)) during the period of 3 months after the Meeting (or a longer period, if allowed by ASX), without using up any part of the Company’s Placement Capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
