3. Resolution 1 – Ratification of Prior Issue of Placement Shares

On 20 October 2025, the Company announced a private share placement of new shares and options to raise approximately $8,000,000 (Placement), which comprised:
-
(a) Tranche 1:
-
(i) The issue of 14,327,262 fully paid ordinary shares (Shares) by way of a private placement to sophisticated and professional investors at an issue price of $0.55 per Share raising $7,879,994 on 24 October 2025, without prior Shareholder approval using the Company’s available placement capacity under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1;
-
A. 6,050,323 Placement Shares under Listing Rule 7.1;
-
B. 8,276,939 Placement Shares under Listing Rule 7.1A, and
-
-
(ii) The proposed issue of 14,327,262 free attaching options (Options) on the basis of one (1) option for every one (1) Share, to the same sophisticated and professional investors with an exercise price of $0.825 and expiring 30 November 2028, subject to Shareholder approval.
Page 7
-
(b) Tranche 2:
-
(i) The proposed issue of up to 218,184 Shares by way of placement to Directors of the Company (or their nominees) at an issue price of $0.55 per Share, raising $120,001; and
-
(ii) The proposed issue of up to 218,184 Options on the basis of one (1) option for every one (1) Share, to the same Directors of the Company (or their nominees) with an exercise price of $0.825 and expiring 30 November 2028,
as follows:
-
(i) up to 45,455 Shares and 45,455 Options to Wayne Zekulich;
-
(ii) up to 45,455 Shares and 45,455 Options to Lindsay Dudfield;
-
(iii) up to 45,455 Shares and 45,455 Options to Darren Wates;
-
(iv) up to 45,455 Shares and 45,455 Options to Paul Brown; and
-
(v) up to 36,364 Shares and 36,364 Options to Ian Rodger.
(together, the Director Placement Securities), the issue of which is conditional on Shareholder approval being obtained.
The Placement Options are being offered pursuant to a prospectus dated 20 October 2025.
The Company confirms that it intends to request quotation of the Options subject to meeting ASX requirements.
Funds raised under the Placement (after expenses) will be applied to advance the McDermitt Lithium Project, including exploration drilling and permitting, repurchase of the balance of the convertible securities held by Mercer Street Global Opportunity Fund II. LP and other funds managed by US-based C/M Capital Partners, LP, costs to advance the previously announced US special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) transaction and general working capital purposes.
In addition to the above, the Company also issued 1,469,090 Options on the same terms as the Placement Options to the joint lead managers of the Placement as consideration for corporate advisory services provided to the Company which included acting as joint lead managers and bookrunners (Joint Lead Managers) to completion of the Placement (Broker Options). The Company issued the Broker Options on 24 October 2025 without prior Shareholder approval using the Company’s available placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
3.2 Listing Rules 7.1, 7.1A and 7.4
Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A limit the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% and 10% respectively of the fully paid ordinary shares it had on issue at the start of that period.
The Placement Shares issued to participants via Tranche 1 did not fall within an exception and were issued without Shareholder approval under the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 and the Company’s 10% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A.
Page 8
Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to subsequently ratify the previous issues of securities made without prior shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A, provided the issue did not breach the maximum thresholds set by Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A and so does not reduce the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under those rules.
The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A and thus the Company is seeking ratification of the Placement Shares issued pursuant to Tranche 1 by Resolutions 1(a) and 1(b). The Company confirms that the issue and allotment of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares did not breach Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A at the date of issue.
If Resolutions 1(a) and (b) are passed, the Placement Shares issued pursuant to Tranche 1 will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% threshold in Listing Rule 7.1 and 10% placement capacity limit in Listing Rule 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of equity securities it can issue without shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue.
If Resolutions 1(a) and (b) are not passed, the relevant issues will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% Threshold in Listing Rule 7.1 and 10% placement capacity limit in Listing Rule 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue.
The Company confirms that Listing Rule 7.1 was not breached at the time the Placement Shares were agreed to be issued.
3.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.5
Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to the ratification of the issue of the Placement Shares:
- (a) The Placement Shares were issued to professional and sophisticated investors.

The Placement Options to be issued to Directors will otherwise be issued on the terms and conditions in Schedule 2.
-
(e) The Company will issue the Director Placement Securities as soon as possible after the date of the Meeting and in any event within one month of the Meeting.
-
(f) The Placement Shares to be issued to Directors will be issued at $0.55 per Share, being the same issue price as the Placement Shares. The Placement Options to be issued to Directors will be issued for nil cash consideration as they are being issued on a free attaching basis to the Placement Shares.

-
(h) The funds raised from the issue of the Placement Shares to Directors are intended to be used to advance the McDermitt Lithium Project, including exploration drilling and permitting, repurchase of the balance of the convertible securities held by Mercer Street Global Opportunity Fund II.

5.4 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act regulates the provision of “financial benefits” to “related parties” by a public company. Chapter 2E prohibits a public company from giving a financial benefit to a related party of the public company unless either:
-
(a) the giving of the financial benefit falls within one of the nominated exceptions to the provisions; or
-
(b) prior shareholder approval is obtained to the giving of the financial benefit.
The proposed issue of the Director Placement Securities constitutes giving a financial benefit and Messrs Zekulich, Dudfield, Wates, Brown and Rodger are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.
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 Securities because the Director
Placement Securities will be issued on the same terms as those Securities issued to non-related participants in the Placement and as such the giving of the financial benefit is on arm’s length terms.

Given the personal interests of all the Directors in the outcome of Resolution 3(a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) (inclusive), the Directors decline to make a recommendation to Shareholders.

The background to the proposed issue of the Broker Options is in Section 3.1 above.
The Company issued the Broker Options on 24 October 2025 without prior Shareholder approval using the Company’s available placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
Resolution 4 seeks the approval of Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 to ratify the issue of the Broker Options.
6.1 Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4
A summary of Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4 is in Section 3.2 above.
The issue of the Broker Options does not fit within any of the exceptions to Listing Rule 7.1 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, effectively uses up part of the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1. This reduces the Company's capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the issue of the Broker Options.
The effect of Shareholders passing Resolution 4 will be to allow the Company to retain the flexibility to issue Equity Securities in the future up to the 15% placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1, without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.
If Resolution 4 is passed, 1,469,090 Broker Options will be excluded in calculating the Company's 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.
If Resolution 4 is not passed, 1,469,090 Broker Options will continue to be included in calculating the Company's 15% limit under Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue or agree to issue without obtaining prior Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.
The Company confirms that Listing Rule 7.1 was not breached at the time the Broker Options were agreed to be issued.
6.2
