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.
- FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND REPORTS
In accordance with the Corporations Act, the business of the Meeting will include receipt and consideration of the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 31 December 2025 together with the declaration of the Directors, the Directors' report, the Remuneration Report and the auditor's report.
The Company will not provide a hard copy of the Company's annual financial report to Shareholders unless specifically requested to do so. The Company's annual financial report is available on its website at https://hyterra.com/investormax/.
- RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT
2.1 General
The Corporations Act requires that at a listed company's annual general meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report to be adopted must be put to the shareholders. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the company or the directors of the company.
The remuneration report sets out the company's remuneration arrangements for the directors and senior management of the company. The remuneration report is part of the directors' report contained in the annual financial report of the company for a financial year.
The chair of the meeting must allow a reasonable opportunity for its shareholders to ask questions about or make comments on the remuneration report at the annual general meeting.
2.2 Voting consequences
A company is required to put to its shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of another meeting of shareholders to consider the appointment of directors of the company (Spill Resolution) if, at consecutive annual general meetings, at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report and at the first of those annual general meetings a Spill Resolution was not put to vote. If required, the Spill Resolution must be put to vote at the second of those annual general meetings.
If more than 50% of votes cast are in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene a shareholder meeting (Spill Meeting) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting.
All of the directors of the company who were in office when the directors' report (as included in the company's annual financial report for the most recent financial year) was approved, other than the managing director of the company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting.
Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election as directors of the company is approved will be the directors of the company.
2.3 Previous voting results
At the Company's previous annual general meeting the votes cast against the remuneration report considered at that annual general meeting were less than 25%. Accordingly, the Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Meeting.

3. RESOLUTION 2 – RE-ELECTION OF MR BENJAMIN MEE
3.1 General
Listing Rule 14.4 and clause 15.2 of the Constitution provide that, other than a managing director, a director of an entity must not hold office (without re-election) past the third annual general meeting following the director's appointment or three years, whichever is the longer. However, where there is more than one managing director, only one is entitled to be exempt from this rotation requirement.
Benjamin Mee, having held office without re-election since 30 May 2023 and being eligible, retires by rotation and seeks re-election.
Further information in relation to Benjamin Mee is set out below.
| Qualifications, experience and other material/directorships | Mr Benjamin Mee has over 20 years of international oil and gas experience with a successful track record in project delivery from exploration, through to appraisal, development and production both onshore and offshore in various global locations. Most recently he held the title of Exploration Manager Deepwater Africa for Shell, during which time significant petroleum discoveries were made. His extensive geoscience knowledge and leadership experience has also complemented his corporate-focused positions in strategy and portfolio development. |
|---|---|
| Term of office | Benjamin Mee has served as a Director since 18 April 2023 and was elected on 30 May 2023. |
| Independence | If re-elected, the Board does not consider that Benjamin Mee will be an independent Director. |
| Board recommendation | Having received an acknowledgement from Benjamin Mee that they will have sufficient time to fulfil their responsibilities as a Director and having reviewed the performance of Benjamin Mee since their appointment to the Board and the skills, knowledge, experience and capabilities required by the Board, the Directors (other than Benjamin Mee) recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution. |
3.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, Benjamin Mee will be re-elected to the Board as an executive Director.
If this Resolution is not passed, Benjamin Mee will not continue in their role as an executive Director. As an additional consequence, this may detract from the Board and Company's ability to execute on its strategic vision.
4. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL OF 7.1A MANDATE
4.1 General
This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval by way of special resolution for the Company to have the additional 10% placement capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval.
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.
Under Listing Rule 7.1A, an Eligible Entity may seek shareholder approval by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25% (7.1A Mandate). An Eligible Entity means an entity which is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300,000,000 or less. As of the
date of this Notice, the Company's market capitalisation is $26,683,324. The Company is therefore an Eligible Entity.
4.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
For this Resolution to be passed, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be cast in favour of the Resolution.
If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities up to the combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without any further Shareholder approval.
If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the additional 10% capacity to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A and will remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing Equity Securities without Shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.
4.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.3A
| REQUIRED INFORMATION | DETAILS |
|---|---|
| Period for which the 7.1A Mandate is valid | The 7.1A Mandate will commence on the date of the Meeting and expire on the first to occur of the following: |
| (a) the date that is 12 months after the date of this Meeting; | |
| (b) the time and date of the Company’s next annual general meeting; and | |
| (c) the time and date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change in the nature or scale of activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of the main undertaking). | |
| Minimum price | Any Equity Securities issued under the 7.1A Mandate must be in an existing quoted class of Equity Securities and be issued for cash consideration at a minimum price of 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before: |
| (a) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed by the entity and the recipient of the Equity Securities; or | |
| (b) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 trading days of the date in paragraph (a) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued. | |
| Use of funds | The Company intends to use funds raised from issues of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate for the acquisition of new resources, assets and investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition), continued exploration expenditure on the Company’s current assets/or projects (funds would then be used for project, feasibility studies and ongoing project administration), the development of the Company’s current business and general working capital. |
| Risk of economic and voting dilution | Any issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue. |
| If this Resolution is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 7.1A Mandate, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below. |
REQUIRED INFORMATION
DETAILS
The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in Listing Rule 7.1A.2, on the basis of the closing market price of Shares and the number of Equity Securities on issue or proposed to be issued as at 16 April 2026.
The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 7.1A Mandate.
| Number of Shares on Issue (Variable A in Listing Rule 7.1A.2) | Shares issued – 10% voting dilution | Issue Price |
|---|---|---|
| $0.008 | $0.016 | $0.024 |
| 50% decrease | Issue Price | 50% increase |
| Funds Raised | ||
| Current | 1,667,707,793 Shares | 166,770,779 Shares |
| 50% increase | 2,501,561,690 Shares | 250,156,169 Shares |
| 100% increase | 3,335,415,586 Shares | 333,541,559 Shares |
*The number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a pro-rata rights issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
The table above uses the following assumptions:
- There are currently 1,667,707,793 Shares on issue comprising the existing Shares as at the date of this Notice;
- The issue price set out above is the closing market price of the Shares on the ASX on 16 April 2026 (being $0.016) (Issue Price). The Issue Price at a 50% increase and 50% decrease are each rounded to three decimal places prior to the calculation of the funds raised.
- The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate.
- The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
- The issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate consists only of Shares. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities. If the issue of Equity Securities includes quoted Options, it is assumed that those quoted Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.
- The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.
- This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under Listing Rule 7.1 unless otherwise disclosed.
- The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.
- The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements

| REQUIRED INFORMATION | DETAILS |
|---|---|
| under the 7.1A Mandate, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting. | |
| Shareholders should note that there is a risk that: | |
| (a) the market price for the Company’s Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and | |
| (b) the Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Shares on the date of issue. | |
| Allocation policy under 7.1A Mandate | The recipients of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 7.1A Mandate have not yet been determined. However, the recipients of Equity Securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company. |
| The Company will determine the recipients at the time of the issue under the 7.1A Mandate, having regard to the following factors: | |
| (a) the purpose of the issue; | |
| (b) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue, share purchase plan, placement or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate; | |
| (c) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company; | |
| (d) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company; | |
| (e) prevailing market conditions; and | |
| (f) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable). | |
| Previous approval under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 | The Company previously obtained approval from its Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 30 May 2025 (Previous Approval). |
| During the 12 month period preceding the date of the Meeting, being on and from 30 May 2025, the Company has not issued any Equity Securities pursuant to the Previous Approval. | |
| Voting exclusion statement | As at the date of this Notice, the Company is not proposing to make an issue of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A. Accordingly, a voting exclusion statement is not included in this Notice. |
- BACKGROUND TO RESOLUTIONS 4 TO 9
As announced on 29 January 2026, the Board cancelled a proposed extraordinary general meeting and engaged an independent remuneration consultant to assist in the design and development of a new executive remuneration framework for the Company, with a view to seeking Shareholder approval at the Meeting for new executive incentives aligned with that framework.
Resolutions 4 to 9 represent the outcome of that independent remuneration review. Resolutions 4 and 5 seek Shareholder approval for the adoption of the Company's new employee incentive scheme titled "Employee Incentive Securities Plan" (Plan) and to authorise the issue of Securities under the Plan.
Resolutions 6 to 9 seek Shareholder approval for the issue of Performance Rights and Options to Mr Benjamin Mee and Mr Avon McIntyre under the Plan, in accordance with the new executive remuneration framework developed following the independent review.
6. RESOLUTION 4 – AMENDMENT TO CONSTITUTION
A company may modify or repeal its constitution or a provision of its constitution by special resolution of Shareholders.
Resolution 4 is a special resolution which will enable the Company to amend its existing Constitution (Amended Constitution) for the purposes of section 1100V of the Corporations Act to permit the Company to issue Securities under an employee incentive scheme (including the Plan) up to a maximum of 10% of the issued capital of the Company. "Subject to the Listing Rules and the Corporations Act and for the purposes of section 1100V(2) of the Corporations Act, the issue cap is 10%."
Under the new Division 1A of Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act, which came into effect on 1 October 2022, offers under an employee incentive plan that do not require a monetary payment (e.g., zero exercise price options or performance rights) can be issued without an issue cap. However, offers requiring a monetary payment (whether upon grant or upon exercise/vesting of the awards and issue of the underlying shares) must be accompanied by an 'ESS offer document' and must comply with an issue cap. The cap is set at 5% under the Corporations Act unless raised by a company's constitution. The Amended Constitution has set the issue cap at 10%.
A copy of the Amended Constitution is available for review by Shareholders at the office of the Company. A copy of the Amended Constitution can also be sent to Shareholders upon request to the Company Secretary. Shareholders are invited to contact the Company if they have any queries or concerns.
7. RESOLUTION 5 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE SECURITIES UNDER AN INCENTIVE PLAN
7.1 General
This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval for purposes of Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)) for the issue of a maximum of 200,000,000 Securities under the Plan.
The objective of the Plan is to attract, motivate and retain key employees, contractors and other persons who provide services to the Company, and the Company considers that the adoption of the Plan and the future issue of Securities under the Plan will provide these parties with the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company.
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.
Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)) provides that Listing Rule 7.1 does not apply to an issue of securities under an employee incentive scheme if, within three years before the date of issue of the securities, the holders of the entity's ordinary securities have approved the issue of equity securities under the scheme as exception to Listing Rule 7.1.
Exception 13(b) is only available if and to the extent that the number of equity securities issued under the scheme does not exceed the maximum number set out in the entity's notice of meeting dispatched to shareholders in respect of the meeting at which shareholder approval was obtained pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)). Exception 13(b) also ceases to be available if there is a material change to the terms of the scheme from those set out in the notice of meeting.
7.2 Technical Information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to issue Securities under the Plan to eligible participants over a period of 3 years. The issue of any Securities to eligible participants under the Plan (up to the maximum number of Securities stated in Section 7.3 below) 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.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Company must seek Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14 in respect of any future issues of Securities under the Plan to a related party or a person whose relationship with the Company or the related party is, in ASX's opinion, such that approval should be obtained.
If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of Securities under the Plan to eligible participants, but any issues of Securities will reduce, to that extent, the Company's capacity to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the issue of the Securities.

(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 issues constitute giving a financial benefit and the Related Parties are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.
The Directors (other than the Related Parties) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the issues, because the agreement to issue the Performance Rights, reached as part of the remuneration package for the Related Parties, is considered reasonable remuneration in the circumstances and was negotiated on an arm's length basis.

10.14.3 a person whose relationship with the entity or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.14.1 to 10.14.2 is such that, in ASX's opinion, the acquisition should be approved by security holders.
The issues fall within Listing Rule 10.14.1 and therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.14.
8.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue within 3 years after the date of the Meeting. As approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue (because approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.14), the issue will not use up any of the Company's 15% annual placement capacity.
If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue.

A summary of the material terms of the Company’s Employee Securities Incentive Plan (Plan) is set out below.
For the purposes of this summary, any reference to the term "exercise" in relation to Performance Rights shall be read and construed as "converts".
| Eligible Participant | Eligible Participant means a person that is a ‘primary participant’ (as that term is defined in Division 1A of Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act) in relation to the Company or an Associated Body Corporate (as defined in the Corporations Act) and has been determined by the Board to be eligible to participate in the Plan from time to time, with the Board retaining discretion to determine, at any time, that the person ceases to be an Eligible Participant, which may impact the treatment of any vested or unvested Securities in accordance with the Plan. |
|---|---|
| Purpose | The purpose of the Plan is to: |
| (a) assist in the reward, retention and motivation of Eligible Participants; | |
| (b) link the reward of Eligible Participants to Shareholder value creation; and | |
| (c) align the interests of Eligible Participants with shareholders of the Group (being the Company and each of its Associated Bodies Corporate), by providing an opportunity to Eligible Participants to receive an equity interest in the Company in the form of Shares, Options or Performance Rights (Securities). | |
| Maximum number of Convertible Securities | The Company will ensure that any invitations under the Plan which are made within Australia and involve monetary consideration comply with the Corporations Act (as modified by any applicable ASIC instruments). |
The maximum number of equity securities proposed to be issued under the Plan in reliance on Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)), following Shareholder approval, is 200,000,000 Securities. It is not envisaged that the maximum number of Securities will be issued immediately. |
| Plan administration | The Plan will be administered by the Board. The Board may exercise any power or discretion conferred on it by the Plan rules in its sole and absolute discretion (except to the extent that it prevents the Participant relying on the deferred tax concessions under Subdivision 83A-C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Cth)). The Board may delegate its powers and discretion. |
| Eligibility, invitation and application | The Board may from time to time determine that an Eligible Participant may participate in the Plan and make an invitation to that Eligible Participant to apply for any (or any combination of) the Securities provided under the Plan on such terms and conditions as the Board decides.
On receipt of an invitation, an Eligible Participant may apply for the Securities the subject of the invitation by sending a completed application form to the Company. The Board may accept an application from an Eligible Participant in whole or in part.
If an Eligible Participant is permitted in the invitation, the Eligible Participant may, by notice in writing to the Board, nominate a party in whose favour the Eligible Participant wishes to renounce the invitation. |
| Grant of Securities | The Company will, to the extent that it has accepted a duly completed application, grant the Participant the relevant number and type of Securities, subject to the terms and conditions set out in the invitation, the Plan rules and any ancillary documentation required. |
2974-08/8773203_8
| Rights attaching to Convertible Securities | A Convertible Security represents a right to acquire one or more Plan Shares in accordance with the Plan (for example, an Option or a Performance Right).
Prior to a Convertible Security being exercised, the holder:
(a) does not have any interest (legal, equitable or otherwise) in any Share which may be issued on exercise of the Convertible Security other than as expressly set out in the Plan;
(b) is not entitled to receive notice of, vote at or attend a meeting of the shareholders of the Company;
(c) is not entitled to receive any dividends declared by the Company; and
(d) is not entitled to participate in any new issue of Shares (see Adjustment of Convertible Securities section below). |
| --- | --- |
| Restrictions on dealing with Convertible Securities | Convertible Securities issued under the Plan cannot be sold, assigned, transferred, have a security interest granted over or otherwise dealt with unless in Special Circumstances as defined under the Plan (including in the case of death or total and permanent disability of the holder) with the consent of the Board.
A holder must not enter into any arrangement for the purpose of hedging their economic exposure to a Convertible Security that has been granted to them. |
| Vesting of Convertible Securities | Any vesting conditions applicable to the Convertible Securities will be described in the invitation. If all the vesting conditions are satisfied and/or otherwise waived by the Board, a vesting notice will be sent to the Participant by the Company informing them that the relevant Convertible Securities have vested. Unless and until the vesting notice is issued by the Company, the Convertible Securities will not be considered to have vested. For the avoidance of doubt, if the vesting conditions relevant to a Convertible Security are not satisfied and/or otherwise waived by the Board, that security will lapse. |
| Forfeiture of Convertible Securities | Convertible Securities will be forfeited in the following circumstances:
(a) in the case of unvested Convertible Securities only, where the holder ceases to be an Eligible Participant (e.g. is no longer employed or their office or engagement is discontinued with the Company and any Associated Bodies Corporate (as defined in the Corporations Act) (the Group);
(b) where a Participant acts fraudulently, dishonestly, negligently, in contravention of any Group policy or wilfully breaches their duties to the Group and the Board exercises its discretion to deem some or all of the Convertible Securities held by a Participant to have been forfeited;
(c) where there is a failure to satisfy the vesting conditions in accordance with the Plan;
(d) on the date the Participant becomes insolvent; or
(e) on the expiry date of the Convertible Securities,
subject to the discretion of the Board. |
| Listing of Convertible Securities | Convertible Securities granted under the Plan will not be quoted on the ASX or any other recognised exchange. The Board reserves the right in its absolute discretion to apply for quotation of Convertible Securities granted under the Plan on the ASX or any other recognised exchange. |
| Exercise of Convertible Securities and cashless exercise | To exercise a security, the Participant must deliver a signed notice of exercise (Exercise Notice) and, subject to a cashless exercise (see next paragraph below), pay the exercise price (if any) to or as directed by the |
23
24
| | Company, at any time following vesting of the Convertible Securities (if subject to vesting conditions) and prior to the expiry date as set out in the invitation or vesting notice.
In the case of Options, subject to the Board’s approval, in lieu of paying the aggregate exercise price specified in the Exercise Notice, the Participant may elect a cashless exercise (Cashless Exercise) whereby the Board will issue to the Participant that number of Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole number) calculated in accordance with the following formula:
$$S = O * \frac{(MVS - EP)}{MVS}$$
Where:
S = number of Shares to be issued on the exercise of the Options,
O = number of Options being exercised,
MVS = market value of Shares, being the volume weighted average price per Share traded on the ASX over the five trading days immediately preceding the date of exercise, unless otherwise specified in an invitation.
EP = Exercise Price of the Options.
For the avoidance of doubt, if the sum of the above calculation is zero or negative, then the holder will not be entitled to use Cashless Exercise.
Convertible Securities may not be exercised unless and until that security has vested in accordance with the Plan rules, or such earlier date as set out in the Plan rules. |
| --- | --- |
| Timing of issue of Shares and quotation of Shares on exercise | Within five business days after the issue of a valid notice of exercise by a Participant, the Company will issue or cause to be transferred to that Participant the number of Shares to which the Participant is entitled under the Plan rules and issue a substitute certificate for any remaining unexercised Convertible Securities held by that Participant. |
| Restriction periods and restrictions on transfer of Shares on exercise | If the invitation provides that any Shares issued upon the valid exercise of a Convertible Security are subject to any restrictions as to the disposal or other dealing by a Participant for a period, the Board may implement any procedure it deems appropriate to ensure the compliance by the Participant with this restriction.
Additionally, Shares issued on exercise of the Convertible Securities are subject to the following restrictions:
(a) if the Company is required but is unable to give ASX a notice that complies with section 708A(5)(e) of the Corporations Act, Shares issued on exercise of the Convertible Securities may not be traded until 12 months after their issue unless the Company, at its sole discretion, elects to issue a prospectus pursuant to section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act;
(b) all Shares issued on exercise of the Convertible Securities are subject to restrictions imposed by applicable law on dealing in Shares by persons who possess material information likely to affect the value of the Shares and which is not generally available; and
(c) all Shares issued on exercise of the Convertible Securities are subject to the terms of the Company’s Securities Trading Policy (as set out on the Company’s website) |
| Rights attaching to Shares on exercise | All Shares issued upon exercise of Convertible Securities will rank equally in all respects with the then Shares of the Company. |
| Change of control | Subject at all times to the Listing Rules, if a change of control event occurs (being an event which results in any person (either alone or together with associates) owning more than 50% of the Company’s issued capital), or the Board determines that such an event is likely to occur, unvested Convertible Securities will vest unless the Board determines in its discretion otherwise. The Board’s discretion in determining the treatment of any unvested Convertible Securities on a change of control event is limited to vesting or varying any vesting conditions in respect to the Convertible Securities and does not include a discretion to lapse or forfeit unvested Convertible Securities for less than fair value. |
|---|---|
| Participation in entitlements and bonus issues | Subject always to the rights under the following two paragraphs, Participants will not be entitled to participate in new issues of capital offered to holders of Shares such as bonus issues and entitlement issues. |
| Adjustment for bonus issue | If Shares are issued by the Company by way of bonus issue (other than an issue in lieu of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment), the Participant is entitled, upon exercise of the Convertible Securities, to receive an issue of as many additional Shares as would have been issued to the holder if the holder held Shares equal in number to the Shares in respect of which the Convertible Securities are exercised. |
| Reorganisation | If there is a reorganisation of the issued share capital of the Company (including any subdivision, consolidation, reduction, return or cancellation of such issued capital of the Company), the rights of each Participant holding Convertible Securities will be changed to the extent necessary to comply with the ASX Listing Rules applicable to a reorganisation of capital at the time of the reorganisation. |
| Employee Share Trust | The Board may in its sole and absolute discretion use an employee share trust or other mechanism for the purposes of holding Convertible Securities for holders under the Plan and delivering Shares on behalf of holders upon exercise of Convertible Securities. |
| Amendment of Plan | Subject to the following paragraph, the Board may at any time amend any provisions of the Plan rules, including (without limitation) the terms and conditions upon which any Securities have been granted under the Plan and determine that any amendments to the Plan rules be given retrospective effect, immediate effect or future effect. |
No amendment to any provision of the Plan rules may be made if the amendment materially reduces the rights of any Participant as they existed before the date of the amendment, other than an amendment introduced primarily for the purpose of complying with legislation or to correct manifest error or mistake, amongst other things, or is agreed to in writing by all Participants. |
| Plan duration | The Plan continues in operation until the Board decides to end it. The Board may from time to time suspend the operation of the Plan for a fixed period or indefinitely and may end any suspension. If the Plan is terminated or suspended for any reason, that termination or suspension must not prejudice the accrued rights of the Participants.
If a Participant and the Company (acting by the Board) agree in writing that some or all of the Securities granted to that Participant are to be cancelled on a specified date or on the occurrence of a particular event, then those Securities may be cancelled in the manner agreed between the Company and the Participant. |
| Income Tax Assessment Act | The Plan is a plan to which Subdivision 83A-C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Cth) applies (subject to the conditions in that Act) except to the extent an invitation provides otherwise. |

Withholding
Notwithstanding any other provision of these Rules, and without limiting the amounts which may be deducted or withheld under Applicable Laws, if a member of the Group, a trustee or the Plan administrator is obliged, or reasonably believes that it may have an obligation to account for any Tax, or any superannuation amounts (or equivalent social security contributions, if applicable) in respect of a Participant (Withholding Amount), then that Group company, trustee or Plan administrator (as applicable) is entitled to withhold or be reimbursed by the Participant for the Withholding Amount payable or paid.
To give effect to the Withholding clause, the relevant Group company, trustee or Plan administrator may take any actions as it sees fit to ensure payment of, or recover (as applicable), the Withholding Amounts including (without limitation):
(a) selling on behalf of the Participant the number of Shares granted under this Plan required to provide the Withholding Amount;
(a) obtaining the Withholding Amount from the Participant (by salary deduction or otherwise);
(b) forfeiting a sufficient number of Securities to satisfy the Withholding Amount; or
