Page 6

2.2 Voting by proxy

A Proxy Form is made available with the Notice. This is to be used by Shareholders if they wish to appoint a representative (a 'proxy') to vote in their place. All Shareholders are invited and encouraged to attend the Meeting or, if they are unable to attend in person, sign and return the Proxy Form to the Company in accordance with the instructions thereon.

Lodgement of a Proxy Form will not preclude a Shareholder from attending and voting at the Meeting in person.

Please note that:

(a) a member of the Company entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy;
(b) a proxy need not be a member of the Company; and
(c) a member of the Company entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint two proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise, but where the proportion or number is not specified, each proxy may exercise half of the votes.

The enclosed Proxy Form provides further details on appointing proxies and lodging Proxy Forms.

Section 250BB(1) of the Corporations Act provides that an appointment of a proxy may specify the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution and, if it does:

(a) the proxy need not vote on a show of hands, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed);
(b) if the proxy has 2 or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on the resolution – the proxy must not vote on a show of hands;
(c) if the proxy is the chair of the meeting at which the resolution is voted on – the proxy must vote on a poll, and must vote that way (i.e. as directed); and
(d) if the proxy is not the chair – the proxy need not vote on the poll, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed).

Section 250BC of the Corporations Act provides that, if:

(a) an appointment of a proxy specifies the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution at a meeting of the company's members;
(b) the appointed proxy is not the chair of the meeting;
(c) at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded, or is otherwise required under section 250JA on the resolution; and
(d) either the proxy is not recorded as attending the meeting or the proxy does not vote on the resolution,

the chair of the meeting is taken, before voting on the resolution closes, to have been appointed as the proxy for the purposes of voting on the resolution at the meeting.

3441-0243-2586, v. 4

2.3 Chair's voting intentions

The Chair intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of all Resolutions, unless the Shareholder has expressly indicated a different voting intention. In exceptional circumstances, the Chair of the Meeting may change their voting intention on any Resolution, in which case an ASX announcement will be made.

2.4 Submitting questions

Shareholders may submit questions in advance of the Meeting to the Company. Questions must be submitted by emailing the Company Secretary at [email protected] at least 5 Business Days before the Meeting.

Shareholders will also have the opportunity to submit questions during the Meeting in respect to the formal items of business. In order to ask a question during the Meeting, please follow the instructions from the Chair.

The Chair will attempt to respond to the questions during the Meeting. The Chair will request prior to a Shareholder asking a question that they identify themselves (including the entity name of their shareholding and the number of Shares they hold).

3. Resolution 1 – Consolidation of capital

3.1 General

Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder approval for the Company to undertake the consolidation of its capital on a 1-for-35 basis (Consolidation).

3.2 Legal requirements

Section 254H(1) of the Corporations Act provides that a company may, by resolution passed in a general meeting, convert all or any of its shares into a larger or smaller number.

Listing Rule 7.20 provides that where an entity proposes to reorganise its capital, it must tell Equity Security holders:

(a) the effect of the proposal on the number of Securities and the amount unpaid (if any) on the Securities;

(b) the proposed treatment of any fractional entitlements; and

(c) the proposed treatment of any Convertible Securities on issue. Listing Rule 7.21 provides that a listed entity which has Convertible Securities (except Options) on issue may only reorganise its capital if, in respect of the Convertible Securities, the number of its Convertible Securities or the conversion price, or both, is reorganised so that the holder of the Convertible Securities will not receive a benefit that holders of ordinary Securities do not receive.

Listing Rule 7.22.1 requires that when a listed entity undertakes a consolidation of capital, the number of its Options must be consolidated in the same ratio as the ordinary capital and the exercise price must be amended in inverse proportion to that ratio.

Page 8

If Resolution 1 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the Consolidation and the number of Securities on issue is anticipated to be adjusted as follows, based on the Securities on issue as at the date of this Notice (in each case, subject to rounding up):

Security	Pre-Consolidation	Post-Consolidation
Shares	5,346,290,525	152,752,158
Options	1,592,713,857	45,506,110
Performance Rights	700,000,000	20,000,000

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the Consolidation.

3.3 Fractional entitlements

Not all Shareholders will hold that number of Securities (Shares, Options or Performance Rights as the case may be) which can be evenly divided based on a 35-to-1 basis. Where a fractional entitlement occurs, the Company will round that fraction up to the nearest whole Security.

3.4 Taxation

It is not considered that any taxation implications will exist for Shareholders arising from the Consolidation. However, Shareholders are advised to seek their own tax advice on the effect of the Consolidation and the Company accepts no responsibility for the individual taxation implications arising from the Consolidation.

3.5 Holding statements

From the date of the Consolidation, all holding statements for Securities will cease to have any effect, except as evidence of entitlement to a certain number of Securities on a post-Consolidation basis. After the Consolidation becomes effective, the Company will arrange for new holding statements for Securities to be issued to holders of those Securities. It is the responsibility of each Shareholder to check the number of Securities held prior to disposal or exercise (as the case may be).

3.6 Effect on capital structure

The approximate effect which the Consolidation will have on the Company's current capital structure is set out in the tables below. All numbers are subject to rounding.

(a) Shares

	Pre-Consolidation	Post-Consolidation
Shares currently on issue	5,346,290,525	152,751,158

3441-0243-2586, v. 4

(b) Options

Expiry Date	Pre-Consolidation		Post-Consolidation
	Number	Exercise Price ($)	Number	Exercise Price ($)
21 May 2027	522,401,811	$0.006	14,925,766	$0.21
10 Sept 2027	1,070,312,046	$0.002	30,580,344	$0.07

	Pre-Consolidation	Post-Consolidation
Performance Rights currently on issue	700,000,000	20,000,000

3.7 Consolidation timetable

If Resolution 1 is passed, the Consolidation will take effect in accordance with the following timetable.

Event	Date (2026)
Company announces Consolidation using an Appendix 3A.3 and sends out Notice	Thursday, 23 April 2026
Meeting – Shareholders approve Consolidation	Monday, 25 May 2026

The timetable is a proposed indicative timetable and the Board reserves the right to vary the dates in accordance with the Listing Rules.

3441-0243-2586, v. 4

3.8 Additional information

Resolution 1 is an ordinary resolution.

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.

Resolution 2 – Replacement of existing Constitution

4.1 General

Under section 136(2) of the Corporations Act, a company may modify or repeal its constitution or a provision of its constitution by special resolution of Shareholders.

Resolution 2 seeks the approval of Shareholders to repeal the Company's existing Constitution and adopt a new constitution (Proposed Constitution) which removes the proportional takeover bid provisions that were last renewed and reinserted into the Company's Constitution at its 2025 annual general meeting held on 19 November 2025.

A copy of the Proposed Constitution has been included with the Notice at Schedule 2. The Directors of the Company believe that it is preferable in the circumstances to replace the current Constitution with the Proposed Constitution rather than to amend a multitude of specific provisions in relation to the removal of the proportional takeover bid provisions from the Company's Constitution. It is not practicable to list all the changes to the Constitution in this Explanatory Memorandum and Shareholders are invited to contact the Company if they have any queries or concerns.

If Resolution 2 is passed, the adoption of the Proposed Constitution will take effect from the close of the Meeting.

If Resolution 2 is not passed, the Company will not adopt the Proposed Constitution.

Resolution 2 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative).

4.2 Board recommendation

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

Resolution 3 – Approval to issue Capital Raising Shares

5.1 General

The Board believes it desirable that the Company has the ability to issue up to a further 38,187,790 Shares (Capital Raising Shares) in the Company for opportunities as they arise and to fund the Company's operations (on a post-Consolidation basis).

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval for the Company to be authorised to undertake a placement to issue up to 38,187,790 Capital Raising Shares (on a post-Consolidation basis) at an issue price of not less than 80% of the VWAP of Shares calculated over the last 5 Trading Days on which sales in the Shares were recorded before the day on which the issue of the Capital Raising Shares is made (on a post-Consolidation basis) (Capital Raising Issue Price).

3441-0243-2586, v. 4

5.2 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 authority being sought under Resolution 3 for the issue of Capital Raising Shares under the potential capital raising does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and exceeds the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Capital Raising Shares. 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.

If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Capital Raising Shares but would be able to issue a lesser number of Shares and Options without prior Shareholder approval using its placement capacities under Listing Rule 7.1 and, if available at the time, Listing Rule 7.1A.

5.3 Technical 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 the proposed issue of the Capital Raising Shares:

(a) The persons to whom the Capital Raising Shares will be issued have not yet been identified but will be unrelated parties of the Company and are likely to be sophisticated and professional investors identified through a bookbuild process by seeking expressions of interest to participate in the capital raising and with the involvement of a lead manager or broker should one be appointed by the Company.

(b) The maximum number of Capital Raising Shares issued will be up to 38,187,790 (on a post-Consolidation basis).

(c) The Capital Raising 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.

(d) The Capital Raising Shares will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting.

(e) The Capital Raising Shares will be issued at the Capital Raising Issue Price.

(f) The funds raised from the issue of the Capital Raising Shares will be applied towards:

(i) the satisfaction of the capital raising condition in connection with the Agreement. Refer to Section 7.1;

(ii) exploration activities on Gold Basin and White Hills copper-gold projects in Arizona, and the Company's exploration areas in New South Wales;

(iii) costs of the capital raising; and

(iv) general working capital.

3441-0243-2586, v. 4

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

5.4 Additional information

Resolution 3 is an ordinary resolution.

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.

6. Resolution 4 – Approval of Director Placement Shares

6.1 General

The Directors, Michael Povey, Kylie Prendergast, and Kevin Lynn, (together, the Participating Directors) have agreed to subscribe for up to an aggregate of 1,500,000 Director Placement Shares at the Capital Raising Issue Price to raise gross proceeds of approximately A$52,500 (before costs) (Director Placement) in the following proportions:

Director	Amount committed to the Director Placement (A$)	Director Placement Shares
Michael Povey	A$17,500	up to 500,000
Kylie Prendergast	A$17,500	up to 500,000
Kevin Lynn	A$17,500	up to 500,000

Resolution 4(a) to (c) (inclusive) seek Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11 and section 195(4) of the Corporations Act to approve the issue of the Director Placement Shares to the Participating Directors (or their respective nominees).

6.2 Listing Rule 10.11

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed company must not issue or agree to issue Equity Securities to any of the following persons without the approval of Shareholders:

(a) a related party (Listing Rule 10.11.1);

(b) a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial holder (30%+) in the company (Listing Rule 10.11.2);

(c) a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial holder (10%+) in the company and who has nominated a director to the board of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so (Listing Rule 10.11.3);

(d) an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3 (Listing Rule 10.11.4); or

(e) a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 or 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX's opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders (Listing Rule 10.11.5).

The Participating Directors are related parties of the Company by virtue of being directors of the

3441-0243-2586, v. 4

Company. Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11 is therefore required unless an exception applies. It is the view of the Board that the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply in the current circumstances.

Approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Director Placement Shares as approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of these Director Placement Shares to the Participating Directors (or their respective nominees) will not be included in the Company's 15% placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

The effect of Shareholders passing Resolution 4(a) to (c) (inclusive) will be to allow the Company to issue the Director Placement Shares, raising up to A$52,500 (before costs).

If Resolution 4(a) to (c) (inclusive) are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Director Placement Shares, and will receive up to A$52,500 (before costs) committed by the Participating Directors.

If Resolution 4(a) to (c) (inclusive) are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Director Placement Shares, and will not receive up to A$52,500 (before costs) committed by the Participating Directors.

Resolution 4(a) to (c) (inclusive) are not conditional on each other, and Shareholders may approve one or all of these Resolutions (in which case, the Director Placement Shares the subject of the approved Resolution(s) will be issued), even though Shareholders have not approved all of these Resolutions.

6.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 10.13

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of the Director Placement Shares:

(a) The Director Placement Shares will be issued to the Participating Directors (or their respective nominees), in the proportions set out in Section 7.1 above.

(b) Each of the Participating Directors fall into the category stipulated by Listing Rule 10.11.1. In the event the Director Placement Shares are issued to a nominee of the Participating Directors, that nominee will fall into the category stipulated by Listing Rule 10.11.4.

(c) A maximum of 1,500,000 Director Placement Shares will be issued to the Participating Directors (or their respective nominees) (on a post-Consolidation basis).

(d) The Director Placement Shares will be fully paid and rank equally in all respects with the Company's existing Shares on issue.

(e) The Director Placement Shares will be issued no later than 1 month after the date of the Meeting.

(f) The Director Placement Shares will be issued at the Capital Raising Issue Price, being the same as those Capital Raising Shares issued to non-related party participants pursuant to Resolution 3.

(g) A summary of the intended use of funds raised from the Director Placement is set out in Section 5.3(f) above.

(h) The proposed issue of the Director Placement Shares is not intended to remunerate or incentivise the Participating Directors.

3441-0243-2586, v. 4

(i) There are no other material terms to the proposed issue of the Director Placement Shares.
(j) A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.

6.4 Section 195 of the Corporations Act

Section 195(1) of the Corporations Act prohibits a director of a public company who has a material personal interest in a matter that is being considered at a meeting of directors from being present while the matter is being considered at the meeting or voting on the matter. If there is not a quorum of directors who are eligible to vote on a matter because of the operation of section 195(1) of the Corporations Act, one or more directors may call a general meeting and the general meeting may deal with the matter.

The Participating Directors have a personal interest in the outcome of each of their respective Resolutions under Resolution 4(a) to (c) (inclusive) and, as a result of a quorum of Directors not being achieved, have exercised their right under section 195(4) of the Corporations Act to put the issue of the Director Placement Shares to the Participating Directors (or their respective nominees) to Shareholders to resolve.

6.5 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

In accordance with Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, in order to give a financial benefit to a related party, the Company must:

(a) obtain Shareholder approval in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act;
(b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,

unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.

The proposed issue of the Director Placement Shares constitutes giving a financial benefit to related parties of the Company. However, the Board considers that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the issue of the Director Placement Shares because the Director Placement Shares will be issued on the same terms as those Placement Shares issued to non-related party participants in the Placement and as such the giving of the financial benefit is on arm's length terms.

6.6 Additional information

Resolution 4(a) to (c) (inclusive) are each separate ordinary resolutions.

The Board declines to make a recommendation in relation to Resolution 4(a) to (c) (inclusive) due to each of the Participating Directors' personal interests in the outcome of the Resolutions.

7. Resolution 5 - Approval of issue of Consideration Shares

7.1 Background to the Proposed Acquisition

On 28 March 2025, the Company announced (refer to ASX announcement dated 28 March 2025) that it had entered into conditional binding letter agreements (Agreement) with Centric Minerals Management (USA) Inc (Centric) and White Hills Exploration LLC (White Hills),

3441-0243-2586, v. 4

pursuant to which the Company will acquire the White Hills copper-gold project (Proposed Acquisition).

Subject to the Shareholders approving Resolution 5 and confirmation by Newmont Corporation (Newmont) of the Company completing the farm-in requirements under the Newmont Agreement (described below at Section 7.1(c)), the Company will issue to the Centric Shareholders (or their respective nominees) up to 6,643,665 shares (Consideration Shares) on a post-consolidation basis, being shares to the value of A$1.3 million, within 30 days of Newmont's confirmation.

The Proposed Acquisition also remains subject to:

(a) the payment of A$100,000 (inclusive of A$40,000 paid to date as an exclusivity fee) for claims fees;
(b) the payment of A$100,000 after formal agreements are signed and a capital raising by the Company of not less than A$1 million (refer to Resolution 3); and
(c) confirmation by Newmont of the Company completing the farm-in requirements under Newmont Agreement, including the expenditure of US$500,000 on the mining sublease claims by 5 January 2026.

Pursuant to the Agreement, upon the Company delivering to Newmont a positive feasibility study, the Company will pay US$500,000 to Newmont.

The Consideration Shares once issued will be subject to voluntary escrow on the basis that 33.33% of the Consideration Shares will be escrowed for a period of 3-months, 33.33% of the Consideration Shares will be escrowed for a period of 6-months, 33.33% of the Consideration Shares will be escrowed for a period of 9-months and 33.33% of the Consideration Shares will be escrowed for a period of 12-months.

If Resolution 5 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Consideration Shares and the Proposed Acquisition as outlined in this Notice. 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.

If Resolution 5 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Consideration Shares and the Proposed Acquisition will not proceed.

Hamilton Locke ■ Constitution

3452-0087-2006, v. 1

Company determines are to be distributed among the Members as dividends are divisible among the Members so that, on each occasion on which a dividend is paid:

(i) the same sum is paid on each fully paid share; and
(ii) the sum paid on a share on which all amounts payable have not been paid is the proportion of the sum referred to in article 13.3(a)(i) that the amount paid on the shares bears to the total of the amounts paid and payable on the share.

(b) To determine the amount paid on a share, exclude any amount:

(i) paid or credited as paid in advance of a call; and
(ii) credited as paid on a share to the extent that it exceeds the value (ascertained at the time of issue of the share) of the consideration received for the issue of the share.

(c) All dividends are to be apportioned and paid proportionately to the amounts paid on the shares during any portion or portions of the period for which the dividend is paid, but, if any share is issued on terms providing that it will rank for dividend as from a particular date, that share ranks for dividend accordingly.

13.4 Deductions from dividends

The Directors may deduct from any dividend payable to, or at the direction of, a Member any sums presently payable by that Member to the Company on account of calls or otherwise in relation to shares in the Company.

13.5 Distribution of specific assets

(b) direct that the dividend or return of capital payable in respect of any particular shares be satisfied wholly or partly by such distribution, and that the dividend or return of capital payable in respect of other shares be paid in cash.

(A) make cash payments in cases where Members are entitled to fractions of shares, debentures or other securities;
(B) decide that amounts or fractions of less than a particular value decided by the Directors may be disregarded in order to adjust the rights of all parties by withholding assets, cash, shares, debentures or other securities where the Company is required to make a

Hamilton Locke ■ Constitution

3452-0087-2006, v. 1

payment in respect of the Member to a government or taxing authority in relation to the distribution or issue;

(C) decide to make distributions by disregarding transfers of shares or aggregating parcels of shares where they form the opinion that shareholdings have been split or aggregated to obtain the benefit of rounding on fractions of shares; and

(ii) fix the value for distribution of any specific assets;

(iii) pay cash or issue shares, debentures or other securities to any Member in order to adjust the rights of all parties;

(iv) vest any of those specific assets, cash, shares, debentures or other securities in a trustee or nominee on trust for the persons entitled to the distribution or capitalised amount, on any terms that seem expedient to the Directors; and

(b) Any agreement made under an authority referred to in article 13.6(a)(v) is effective and binds all Members concerned

(c) Instead of making a distribution or issue of specific assets, shares, debentures or other securities to a particular Member, the Directors may make a cash payment to that Member or allocate some or all of the assets, shares, debentures or other securities to a trustee to be sold on behalf of, and for the benefit of, or in respect of, that Member, if:

(i) the distribution or issue would otherwise be illegal or unlawful;

(ii) the distribution or issue would give rise to parcels of securities which do not constitute a marketable parcel;

(iii) in the Directors' discretion, the distribution or issue would, for any reason, be impracticable; or

(iv) the Member so agrees.

(d) If the Company distributes to Members (either generally or to specific Members) shares, debentures or securities of the Company or another body corporate or trust (whether as a dividend or return of capital or otherwise and whether or not for value), each of those Members appoints the Company, and any officer of the Company nominated on their behalf by the Directors, as his or her agent or attorney to do anything needed or desirable to give effect, or assist in giving effect, to that distribution, including agreeing to become a member, holder of shares, holder of

The ways in which a sum may be applied for the benefit of Members under article 13.12 are:

(i) any amount paid on the share, or any amount fixed by the Directors under the terms of issue or capable of determination pursuant to a mechanism adopted by the Directors under the terms of issue; and

(ii) a further amount out of the surplus assets and profits of the Company on the conditions decided by the Directors under the terms of issue unless, and to the extent that, the Directors decide under the terms of issue that there is no right to any payment of a further amount out of the surplus assets and profits of the Company,

in priority to ordinary shares and, unless the Directors decide otherwise under the terms of issue, in priority to shares in any other class of shares or class of preference shares expressed to rank behind on a winding up, equally with shares in any other class of shares or class of preference shares expressed to rank equally on a winding up, and behind shares in any other class of shares or class of preference shares expressed to rank in priority on a winding up.

(b) Unless otherwise decided by the Directors under the terms of issue, a preference share does not confer on its holder any right to participate in the profits or property of the Company except as set out in this Schedule 1.

3. Bonus issues and capitalisation of profits

If, and to the extent that the Directors decide under the terms of issue, a preference share may confer a right to a bonus issue or capitalisation of profits in favour of holders of those shares only.

4. Voting rights

(a) A preference share does not entitle its holder to vote at any general meeting of the Company except on the questions, proposals or resolutions or during periods of time or in circumstances identified by the Directors in the terms of issue, which, unless the Directors decide otherwise under the terms of issue, are as follows:

(i) a proposal:

(A) to reduce the share capital of the Company;

(iii) during a period in which a Dividend or part of a Dividend on the share is in arrears;
(iv) during the winding up of the Company.

6. Foreign Currency

Where any amount is payable by the Company to the holder of a preference share in a currency other than Australian dollars, and the amount is not paid when due or the Company has commenced winding up, the holder may give notice to the Company requiring payment of an amount in Australian dollars equal to the foreign currency amount calculated by applying the reference rate on the date of payment for the sale of the currency in which the payment is to be made for Australian dollars. Reference rate means the rate applicable in the market and at the time determined by the Directors before allotment of those preference shares and specified in the terms of issue for those preference shares.

7. Conversion to ordinary shares

Subject to the Corporations Act, any other applicable laws and the terms of issue of a preference share as determined by the Directors:

(a) a preference share which may be converted into an ordinary share in accordance with its terms of issue, at the time of conversion and without any further act:

(i) has the same rights as a fully paid ordinary share; and
(ii) ranks equally with other fully paid ordinary shares on issue,

however, the terms of issue of the preference share may provide otherwise including for the issue of additional ordinary shares on conversion as determined by the Directors; and

(b) the conversion does not constitute a cancellation, redemption or termination of the preference share or the issue, allotment or creation of new shares, but has the effect of varying the status of, and the rights attaching to, the preference share so that it becomes an ordinary share.

8. Amendment to the terms

Subject to complying with all applicable laws, the Company may, without the consent of preference shareholders, amend or add to the terms of the preference shares if, in the opinion of the Company, the amendment or addition is:

(a) of a formal, minor or technical nature;

Hamilton Locke ■ Constitution

3452-0087-2006, v. 1

(b) to correct a manifest error;
(c) made to comply with any applicable law, Listing Rule or requirement of a Stock Exchange;

(e) is not likely to be or become materially prejudicial to the preference shareholders.

9. Variation of rights

Subject to paragraph 8 and the terms of issue of a preference share as determined by the Directors, the rights attaching to a preference share may only be varied or cancelled by a special resolution of the Company and:

(a) by a special resolution passed at a meeting of preference shareholders entitled to vote and holding shares in that class; or
(b) with the written consent of holders of at least 75% of the issued shares of that class.

10. Further issue of shares

If the Company issues new preference shares that rank equally with existing preference shares, the issue will not be taken to vary the rights attached to the existing preference shares unless otherwise determined by the Directors in the terms of issue of the existing shares.

Hamilton Locke ■ Constitution

The Directors may at any time exempt a share wholly or in part from the provisions of paragraph 1.1(a) or 1.2.

(b) advised by a lawyer qualified to practice in the jurisdiction of the relevant government or taxing authority that the Company is required by law to make the relevant payment.

The Company is not obliged to advise the Member in advance of its intention to make the payment.

Hamilton Locke ■ Constitution

3452-0087-2006, v. 1

Hamilton Locke ■ Constitution
3452-0087-2006, v. 1

1.7 Reimbursement is a debt due

The obligation of the Member to reimburse the Company is a debt due to the Company as if it were a call on all the Member's shares, duly made at the time when the written demand for reimbursement is given by the Company to the Member. The provisions of this Constitution relating to non-payment of calls, including payment of interest and sale of the Member's shares under lien, apply to the debt.

1.8 Sale under lien

Subject to paragraph 1.9, the Company may sell, in any manner the Directors think fit, any share on which the Company has a lien.

1.9 Limitations on sale under lien

A share on which the Company has a lien may not be sold by the Company unless:

(a) an amount in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable; and
(b) the Company has, not less than 14 days before the date of sale, given to the registered holder of the share or the person entitled to the share by reason of the death or bankruptcy of the registered holder, a notice setting out, and demanding payment of, the amount which is presently payable in respect of which the lien exists.

1.10 Transfer on sale under lien

For the purpose of giving effect to a sale under paragraph 1.8, the Company may receive the consideration, if any, given for the share so sold and may execute a transfer of the share sold in favour of the purchaser of the share, or do all such other things as may be necessary or appropriate for it to do to effect the transfer. The purchaser is not bound to see to the application of the purchase money.

The title of the purchaser to the share is not affected by any irregularity or invalidity in connection with the sale of the share under paragraph 1.8.

1.12 Proceeds of sale

The proceeds of a sale under paragraph 1.8 must be applied by the Company in payment of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable, and the residue, if any, must be paid to the person entitled to the share immediately before the sale. The payment of any residue to the person entitled to the share immediately before the sale is subject to the existence of any like lien on the share immediately before the sale for amounts not presently payable.

Calls on shares

The Directors may:

(a) make calls on a Member in respect of any money unpaid on the shares of that Member, if the money is not by the terms of issue of those shares made payable at fixed times;
(b) make a call payable by instalments; and

2.2 Time of call

A call is taken to be made at the time when the resolution of the Directors authorising the call is passed.

2.3 Members' liability

On receiving not less than 10 business days' notice (or any other period required by the Listing Rules) specifying the time or times and place of payment, each Member must pay to the Company by the time or times, and at the place, specified in the notice the amount called on that Member's shares.

2.4 Joint holders' liability

The joint holders of a share are jointly and individually liable to pay all calls in respect of the share.

2.5 Non-receipt of notice

The non-receipt of a notice of any call by, or the accidental omission to give notice of a call to, a Member does not invalidate the call.

2.6 Interest on default

If a sum called in respect of a share is not paid before or on the day appointed for payment of the sum, the person from whom the sum is due must pay interest on the sum from the day it is due to the time of actual payment at the Prescribed Interest Rate. The Directors may waive payment of that interest wholly or in part.

2.7 Fixed instalments

Subject to any notice requirements under the Listing Rules, if the terms of a share make a sum payable on issue of the share or at a fixed date, this is taken to be a call duly made and payable on the date on which by the terms of issue the sum becomes payable. In the case of non-payment, all the relevant provisions of this Constitution as to payment of interest and expenses, forfeiture or otherwise apply as if the sum had become payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

2.8 Differentiation between holders as to calls

The Directors may, on the issue of shares, differentiate between the holders of the shares as to the amount of calls to be paid and the times of payment.

2.9 Prepayment of calls and interest

The Directors may:

(a) accept from a Member the whole or a part of the amount unpaid on a share even if no part of that amount has been called; and

(b) authorise payment by the Company of interest on the whole or any part of an amount so accepted, until the amount becomes payable, at such rate, not exceeding the Prescribed Interest Rate, as is agreed between the Directors and the Member paying the sum.

Hamilton Locke ■ Constitution

3452-0087-2006, v. 1

3. Forfeiture of shares

3.1 Notice requiring payment of call

If a Member fails to pay a call, or instalment of a call, on the day appointed for payment of the call or instalment, the Directors may, at any time afterwards during such time as any part of the call or instalment remains unpaid, give a notice to the Member requiring payment of so much of the call or instalment as is unpaid, together with any interest that has accrued and all costs and expenses that may have been incurred by the Company by reason of that non-payment.

3.2 Contents of notice

The notice must name a further day, which is at least 14 days from the date of service of the notice, on or before which the payment required by the notice is to be made and must state that, in the event of non-payment at or before the time appointed, the shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.

3.3 Forfeiture for failure to comply with notice

If a notice under paragraph 3.1 has not been complied with, the Directors may by resolution forfeit the relevant shares, at any time before the payment required by the notice has been made.

3.4 Dividends and distributions included in forfeiture

A forfeiture under paragraph 3.3 includes all dividends and other distributions to be made in respect of the forfeited shares which have not been paid or distributed before the forfeiture.

3.5 Sale or re-issue of forfeited shares

Subject to the Corporations Act, a share forfeited under paragraph 3.3 may be sold, re-issued or otherwise disposed of to such person and on such terms as the Directors think fit.

3.6 Notice of forfeiture

If any share is forfeited under paragraph 3.3, notice of the forfeiture must be given to the Member holding the share immediately before the forfeiture and an entry of the forfeiture and its date must be made in the Register. Any failure to give notice or enter the forfeiture in the Register does not invalidate the forfeiture.

3.7 Surrender instead of forfeiture

The Directors may accept the surrender of any share which they are entitled to forfeit on any terms they think fit and any share so surrendered is taken to be a forfeited share.

3.8 Cancellation of forfeiture

At any time before a sale, re-issue or disposal of a share under paragraph 3.5, the forfeiture of that share may be cancelled on such terms as the Directors think fit.

3.9 Effect of forfeiture on former holder's liability

A person whose shares have been forfeited:

(a) ceases to be a Member in respect of the forfeited shares;

Hamilton Locke ■ Constitution
3452-0087-2006, v. 1

(b) waives all claims and demands against the Company in respect of the forfeited shares; and

(c) remains liable to pay and will immediately pay to the Company all money that, at the date of forfeiture, was payable by that person to the Company in respect of the shares, plus interest at the Prescribed Interest Rate from the date of forfeiture and the reasonable expenses of the sale of the shares, until the Company receives payment in full of all money (including interest and expenses) so payable in respect of the shares.

3.10 Evidence of forfeiture

A written statement declaring that the person making the statement is a Director or a Secretary, and that a share has been forfeited in accordance with this Constitution on the date declared in the statement, is evidence of the facts in the statement as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the share.

3.11 Transfer of forfeited share

The Company may receive any consideration given for a forfeited share on any sale, re-issue or disposal of the share under paragraph 3.5 and may execute or effect a transfer of the share in favour of the person to whom the share is sold, re-issued or disposed.

3.12 Registration of transferee

On the execution of the transfer, the transferee must be registered as the holder of the share and is not bound to see to the application of any money paid as consideration.

Market Value in relation to a Share means the closing price of the Share on a Trading Platform, excluding special crossings, overnight sales and exchange traded options.

New Holder is a Member who is the holder or a joint holder of a New Less than Marketable Parcel.

New Less than Marketable Parcel means a holding of Shares created after the date on which Schedule 4 came into effect by the transfer of a parcel of Shares the aggregate Market Value of which at the time a proper transfer was initiated or a paper based transfer was lodged, was less than a marketable parcel of Shares as provided under the Listing Rules.

Relevant Period means the period specified in a Divestment Notice under paragraph 3.

Relevant Shares are the Shares specified in a Divestment Notice.

Shares for the purposes of Schedule 4 are shares in the Company all of the same class.

Less than Marketable Parcel means a holding of Shares the aggregate Market Value of which at the relevant date is less than a marketable parcel of Shares as provided under the Listing Rules.

2. Divestment Notice

If the Directors determine that a Member is a Holder or a New Holder, the Company may give the Member a Divestment Notice to notify the Member:

(a) that the Member is a Holder or a New Holder, the number of Shares making up and the Market Value of the Less than Marketable Parcel or New Less than Marketable Parcel and the date on which the Market Value was determined;

(b) that the Company intends to sell the Relevant Shares in accordance with this article after the end of the Relevant Period specified in the Divestment Notice;

(c) if the Member is a Holder, that the Member may at any time before the end of the Relevant Period notify the Company in writing that the Member desires to retain the Relevant Shares and that if the Member does so the Company will not be entitled to sell the Relevant Shares under that Divestment Notice; and

Hamilton Locke ■ Constitution

3452-0087-2006, v. 1

(d) after the end of the Relevant Period the Company may for the purpose of selling the Relevant Shares that are in a CS Facility holding initiate a holding adjustment to move those Shares from that CS Facility holding to an Issuer Sponsored Holding or certificated holding.

If the Operating Rules of a CS Facility apply to the Relevant Shares, the Divestment Notice must comply with those Operating Rules.

3. Relevant Period

For a Divestment Notice given to a Holder, the Relevant Period must be at least 6 weeks from the date the Divestment Notice was given. For a Divestment Notice given to a New Holder, the Relevant Period must be at least 7 days from the date the Divestment Notice was given.

4. Company can sell Relevant Shares

At the end of the Relevant Period the Company is entitled to sell on-market or in any other way determined by the Directors:

5. No obligation to sell

The Company is not bound to sell any Relevant Shares which it is entitled to sell under this Schedule 4.

(a) to initiate a holding adjustment to move the Relevant Shares from a CS Facility holding to an Issuer Sponsored Holding or a certificated holding; and

(b) to execute on behalf of the Member all deeds instruments or other documents necessary to transfer the Relevant Shares and to deliver any such deeds, instruments or other documents to the purchaser.

7. Conclusive evidence

A statement in writing by or on behalf of the Company under this Schedule 4 is (in the absence of manifest error) binding on and conclusive against a Member. In particular, a statement that the Relevant Shares specified in the statement have been sold in accordance with this article is conclusive against all persons claiming to be entitled to the Relevant Shares and discharges the purchaser from all liability in respect of the Relevant Shares.

Hamilton Locke ■ Constitution

3452-0087-2006, v. 1

Registering the purchaser

The Company must register the purchaser of Relevant Shares as the holder of the Relevant Shares transferred to the purchaser under this article. The purchaser is not bound to see to the application of any money paid as consideration.

Payment of proceeds

Subject to paragraph 10, where:

(a) Relevant Shares of a Member are sold by the Company on behalf of the Member under this article; and
(b) the certificate for the Relevant Shares (unless the Company is satisfied that the certificate has been lost or destroyed or the Relevant Shares are on the Issuer Sponsored subregister) has been received by the Company,

the Company must, within 60 days of the completion of the sale, send the proceeds of sale to the Member using any payment method chosen by the Company including under article 13.7. Payment of any money under this article is at the risk of the Member to whom it is sent.

Costs

In any other case, the Company or a purchaser must bear the costs of sale of the Relevant Shares. The costs of sale include all stamp duty, brokerage and government taxes and charges (except for tax on income or capital gains of the Member) payable by the Company in connection with the sale and transfer of the Relevant Shares.

Remedy limited to damages

The remedy of a Member to whom this article applies, in respect of the sale of the Relevant Shares of that Member is expressly limited to a right of action in damages against the Company to the exclusion of any other right, remedy or relief against any other person.

Dividends and voting suspended

Unless the Directors determine otherwise, where a Divestment Notice is given to a New Holder in accordance with this article, then despite any other provision in this Constitution, the rights to receive payment of dividends and to vote attached to the Relevant Shares of that Member are suspended until the Relevant Shares are transferred to a new holder or that Member ceases to be a New Holder. Any dividends that would, but for this article, have been paid to that Member must be held by the Company and paid to that Member within 60 days after the earlier of:

(a) the date the Relevant Shares of that Member are transferred; and
(b) the date that the Relevant Shares of that Member cease to be subject to a Divestment Notice.

Hamilton Locke ■ Constitution
3452-0087-2006, v. 1
