+Rule 3.10.3
Appendix 3B
Proposed issue of +securities
Information and documents given to ASX become ASX’s property and may be made public.
If you are an entity incorporated outside Australia and you are proposing to issue a new class of +securities other than CDIs, you will need to obtain and provide an International Securities Identification Number (ISIN) for that class. For offers where the +securities proposed to be issued are in an existing class of security, and the event timetable includes rights (or entitlement for nonrenounceable issues), and deferred settlement trading or a representation of such, ASX requires the issuer to advise ASX of the ISIN code for the rights (or entitlement), and deferred settlement trading. This code will be different to the existing class. If the securities do not rank equally with the existing class, the same ISIN code will be used for that security to continue to be quoted while it does not rank.
Further information on the requirement for the notification of an ISIN is available from the Create Online Forms page. ASX is unable to create the new ISIN for non-Australian issuers.
*Denotes minimum information required for first lodgement of this form, with exceptions provided in specific notes for certain questions. The balance of the information, where applicable, must be provided as soon as reasonably practicable by the entity.

| 7D.1c(ii) | *Please explain why the entity has chosen to do a placement or other issue rather than a +pro rata issue or an offer under a +security purchase plan in which existing ordinary +security holders would have been eligible to participate Answer this question if the issuer is an ASX Listing, your response to Q7D.1 is “No” and your response to Q7D.1c is “Yes”. |
The Company considered raising equity by way of an offering of its Shares (by way of a placement, share purchase plan or entitlement offer) and non-convertible debt. In the Company's view, any equity raising may (i) have involved an unattractive discount and (ii) not have been underwritten and so involve a degree of uncertainty. Accordingly, the Convertible Notes, under which financial accommodation is being provided by existing Shareholders, was considered to be preferable to an equity raising because of the certainty of the commitment of funds and the fact that the most likely scenario involves conversion at the current market price, meaning that dilution is minimised as the Noteholders will not receive the benefit of conversion at a discount. The Convertible Notes are superior to 'pure' debt because they are mandatorily convertible into Share upon drawdown under the Project Financing. This will assist the Company to comply with its obligations under the Project Financing and effectively eliminates the risk of cross-default beyond that point. In addition, 'pure' debt for bridging finance in connection with a project such as the Project would be more expensive for the Company than the Convertible Notes. |
| 7D.2 | *Is a party referred to in listing rule 10.11 participating in the proposed issue? Answer this question if the issuer is an ASX Listing. Note: If your response is “Yes”, this will require security holder approval under listing rule 10.11. |
Yes – the EMR Subscribers are associated with EMR Fund 1 which is a substantial holder of shares in the Company. The issue of the Notes to the EMR Subscribers without first obtaining Shareholder approval is prohibited under ASX Listing Rule 10.11 as it does not fall within any of the exceptions to that rule as set out in ASX Listing Rule 10.12. |
| 7D.3 | *Will any of the +securities to be issued be +restricted securities for the purposes of the listing rules? Note: the entity should not apply for quotation of restricted securities |
No |
| 7D.3a | *Please enter, the number and +class of the +restricted securities and the date from which they will cease to be +restricted securities Answer this question if your response to Q7D.3 is “Yes”. |
