Dear Shareholders,

Re: Retention and Reward Program – Shareholder Support at the General Meeting

As we approach the General Meeting (GM) on 12 September 2025, the Board of Larvotto Resources Limited is seeking your support for the continuation of our Retention and Reward Program, a key initiative underpinning our strategy to retain and motivate high-performing employees critical to the success of our operations.

Larvotto is currently recruiting in a competitive labour market, particularly within the resource sector. Retaining talent is not only a challenge but a strategic priority. The Retention and Reward Program is designed to directly align employee interests with those of our shareholders by rewarding sustained contribution, commitment and performance over a defined two-year period.

Reducing high turnover can significantly benefit the Company and its shareholders by saving on recruitment and training costs. Retaining employees eliminates expenses related to advertising, recruitment agency fees, and HR personnel time. This stability leads to increased productivity and efficiency, resulting in higher profitability and better returns for shareholders.

Key features of the Program include:

  • performance-linked incentives, with rewards contingent on the achievement of clearly defined Company and individual objectives;

  • equity-based rewards in the form of performance rights, further aligning employee and shareholder interests; and

  • long-term retention focus, ensuring continuity and capability within our team as we progress through critical exploration, development and construction phases.

The Board believes the Program is essential to building a culture of accountability and sustained performance, while remaining competitive in our industry. Participation is limited to eligible employees and, without specific shareholder approval, excludes all Directors of the Company.

Resolution 3 in the Notice of Meeting is asking Shareholders to support an increase of 25,035,992 in the number of Performance Securities that can be awarded to Larvottos’ employees. Further details are outlined in the accompanying Notice of Meeting and Explanatory Memorandum.

We respectfully request your support for this resolution, and for the broader strategy it represents—investing in the people who drive our growth and long-term value.

Thank you for your continued confidence in Larvotto Resources. Yours faithfully,

Mark Tomlinson Chair

1. BACKGROUND TO THE PLACEMENT

As announced to ASX on 25 July 2025, the Company has received firm commitments from sophisticated and professional investors to undertake a placement to raise approximately $60 million (before costs) by way of the issue of 88,235,294 new Shares at a price of $0.68 per new Share ( Placement ).

The Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued between 1 and 4 August 2025; and

  • (b) 26,679,407 new Shares to be issued subject to Shareholder approval of Resolution 2 ( Tranche 2 Placement Shares ).

Subject to the passing of Resolution 2, the Tranche 2 Placement Shares will be issued on or about 12 September 2025.

  • (a) Hillgrove Project pre-production capital expenditure

  • (b) active, ongoing exploration program at Hillgrove completing infill and expansionary drilling from underground and surface;

  • (d) recruitment and build out of operational readiness teams; and

Further information on the Placement can be found at the links below:

  • https://www.larvottoresources.com/investors/asx-announcements/

  • https://www.asx.com.au/markets/company/lrv

2. RESOLUTION 1– RATIFICATION OF TRANCHE 1 PLACEMENT SHARES

2.1 Background

The background to Resolution 1 is set out in section 1 of this Explanatory Statement.

Under Resolution 1, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval to ratify the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

6

2.2 Regulatory requirements

Listing Rules 7.1 provides that, unless an exception applies, a company must not, without prior approval of shareholders, issue or agree to issue Equity Securities if the Equity Securities will in themselves, or when aggregated with the Equity Securities issued by the company during the previous 12 months, exceed 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

The issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares does not fit within any of the exceptions and, as they have not yet been approved by Shareholders, they use up all of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rules 7.1 for the 12-month period following the date of issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares.

Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to Listing Rules 7.1. It provides that where a company in a general meeting ratifies the issue of Equity Securities made without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1) those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rules 7.1.

The Company confirms that in issuing the Tranche 1 Placement Shares, the Company did not breach Listing Rule 7.1.

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.

Accordingly, under Resolution 1, the Company seeks from Shareholders approval for, and ratification of, the issue of a total of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4.

If Resolution 1 is passed, the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit for the purposes of 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 date of issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Tranche 1 Placement Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares.

2.3 Technical 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 Resolution 1:

(a) Names of the persons to whom securities were issued

The Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued to sophisticated and professional investors who were identified through a bookbuild process which involved the Joint Lead Managers seeking expressions of interest to participate in the Placement from non-related parties of the Company.

2.4 Board Recommendation

The Board believes that the ratification of the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares is beneficial for the Company as it allows the Company to retain the flexibility to issue further Equity Securities representing up to 15% of the Company’s share capital under Listing Rules 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

Accordingly, the Board unanimously recommends Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.

3. RESOLUTION 2 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE TRANCHE 2 PLACEMENT SHARES

3.1 Background

The background to Resolution 2 is set out in section 1 of this Explanatory Statement.

The Company is seeking Shareholder approval to issue the Tranche 2 Placement Shares pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

3.2 Regulatory requirements

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions in Listing Rule 7.2, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the number of Equity Securities that a listed company can issue without shareholder approval over any 12month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities that the company had on issue at the start of that 12-month period.

The issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares does not fit within any of the exceptions and combined with the Company’s previous issues under Listing Rule 7.1 in the last 12 months, the issue will exceed the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, under Resolution 2, the Company seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares.

Resolution 2 seeks the required Shareholder approval for the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

8

If Resolution 2 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares.

If Resolution 2 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares until it has the capacity to do so under Listing Rule 7.1. Shareholders should note that the Company may have capacity to do so under Listing Rule 7.1, if Resolutions 1 is passed.

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 2:

  • (a) Identity of the persons to whom securities are to be issued

9

3.4 Board Recommendation

The Board believes that the approval of the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares is beneficial for the Company as it allows the Company to proceed with the development of the Hillgrove Project and also retain the flexibility to issue further Equity Securities representing up to 15% of the Company’s share capital under Listing Rules 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

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

4. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL TO INCREASE NUMBER OF SECURITIES TO BE ISSUED UNDER THE PLAN

4.1 Background

At the Company’s annual general meeting on 31 May 2024, the Company obtained Shareholder approval to adopt the employee incentive plan titled the “ Larvotto Resources Limited Long-Term Incentive Plan ” ( Plan ), in accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b), the notice of meeting for the annual general meeting stipulated that a maximum of 22,361,165 Equity Securities would be issued under the plan ( Current Maximum ).

Since the adoption of the Plan on 31 May 2024, the Company has issued a total of 16,717,048 Equity Securities thereunder all of which were issued using the Company’s Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b) capacity under the Plan.

The Company now seeks Shareholder approval to increase the maximum number of Equity Securities by 25,035,992 Equity Securities, to 47,397,157 Equity Securities, being 10% of the Company’s shares on issue ( New Maximum ) and issue further securities under the Plan in accordance with the New Maximum.

4.2

Regulatory Requirements

Listing Rule 7.1 provides that, unless an exception applies, a company must not, without prior approval of shareholders, issue or agree to issue Equity Securities if the Equity Securities will in themselves, or when aggregated with the Equity Securities issued by the company during the previous 12 months, exceed 15% of the number of ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12-month period.

Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b) sets out an exception to Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that issues of securities under an employee incentive scheme are not included in a company’s 15% limit under Listing Rule 7.1, if within three years before the date of issue, shareholders have approved the issue of securities thereunder as an exception to Listing Rule 7.1. As the Company is substantially increasing its workforce it now seeks t Shareholder approval to increase the number of Equity Securities it may issue under the Plan.

Accordingly, Resolution 3 seeks approval from Shareholders to increase the number of securities that can be issued under the Plan.

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities under the Plan to eligible participants to the New Maximum without impacting on the Company’s ability to issue to up 10% of its total ordinary securities on issue as at the date of this Notice of meeting, without Shareholder approval in any 12-month period.

If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Directors may still increase the securities to be issued under the Plan and the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of Equity Securities to the proposed New Maximum. However the issue of Equity Securities under the Plan will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit under Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of issue of the Incentive Securities. Accordingly, the Company will not be able to utilise the exception to Listing Rule 7.1 that is provided in Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b).

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company must seek Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14 in respect of any future issues of Incentive 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 Shareholder approval should be obtained.

10

4.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b)

The following information is provided to Shareholders for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b):

(a) A summary of the material terms of the Plan

A summary of the material terms of the Plan is set out in Schedule 1.

Shareholders should not that Directors may not participate in an issue under the Plan unless specific Shareholder approval is sought. If Shareholders approve the increase in the maximum number of Equity Securities that may be issued under the Plan, none of those Equity Securities will be issued to the Directors unless Shareholders approval.

(b) Previous issues of securities

The Company has previously issued 16,717,048 Equity Securities under the Plan since it was adopted on 31 May 2024 (this includes 6,250,000 Equity Securities to Directors (with specific Shareholder approval) and a further 10,467,048 Equity Securities issued to non-director employees).

(c) Maximum number of securities to be issued The maximum number of further Incentive Securities proposed to be issued under the Plan following Shareholder approval is 30,680,109 Equity Securities (being 47,397,157 less 16,717,048 Equity Securities previously issued).

This number is not intended to be a prediction of the actual number of Equity Securities to be issued by the Company, simply a ceiling for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b).

(d) Voting exclusion statement

A voting exclusion statement for Resolution 3 is included in the Notice of Meeting preceding this Explanatory Statement.

4.4 Board Recommendation

The Board believes that the approval of the increase in the maximum number of Incentive Securities proposed to be issued under the Plan is beneficial for the Company as it allows the Company to retain the flexibility to issue further Equity Securities under Listing Rules 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

Accordingly, the Board unanimously recommends Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.

SCHEDULE 1 – SUMMARY OF MATERIAL TERMS OF THE PLAN

The Directors are proposing to adopt the Plan, to enable eligible persons to be granted Options, Performance Rights and Shares ( Awards ), the principal terms of which are summarised below:

1. Eligibility

The Board may, in its absolute discretion, invite an “Eligible Person” to participate in the Plan. An “Eligible Person” 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 and has been determined by the Board to be eligible to participate in the Plan from time to time.

2. Offer

Following determination that an Eligible Person may participate in the Plan; the Board may make an offer to that person by an offer letter setting out the terms of the offer and any Conditions which may apply to the offer or the Awards ( Offer Letter ).

3.

Issue Cap

Unless the Company is unlisted or the Company constitution provides otherwise, the Company must not make an offer of Awards for monetary consideration under the Plan, where the total number of Shares to be issued under the Plan ( Plan Shares ) (or that will be issued upon conversion of convertible securities to be issued), when aggregated with the number of Plan Shares that may be issued as a result of offers made under the Plan, at any time during the previous 3 year period, would exceed 5% of the total number of Shares on issue at the date of the offer.

The Plan does not contain an issue cap on the number of Awards that may be issued for no monetary consideration.

This does not include the issue of Awards that are otherwise approved by Shareholders.

4. Disclosure

All offers of Awards under the Plan for no monetary consideration are made pursuant to Division 1A of Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act and accordingly the Company will not issue a disclosure document for such an offer.

If the Company makes an offer to issue Awards under the Plan for monetary consideration, the Company will comply with the disclosure requirements in Division 1A of Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act.

5. Nature of Awards

Each Option or Performance Right entitles the holder, to subscribe for, or be transferred, one Share. Any Shares acquired as an Award or pursuant to the exercise of an Award will rank equally with all existing Shares from the date of acquisition.

6. Vesting

Awards may be subject to exercise conditions, performance hurdles or vesting conditions ( Conditions ). These Conditions must be specified in the Offer Letter to Eligible Persons. In the event that a takeover bid for the Company is declared unconditional, there is a change of control in the Company, or if a merger by way of a scheme of arrangement has been approved by a court, then the Board may determine that:

  • (i) all or a percentage of unvested Options will vest and become exercisable;

  • (ii) all or a percentage of Performance Rights will be automatically exercised; and

14

  • (iii) any Shares issued or transferred to a holder under the Plan that have restrictions (on their disposal, the granting of any security interests in or over, or otherwise on dealing with), will be free from any restrictions on disposal.

7. Exercise Period

The period during which a vested Award may be exercised will commence when all Conditions have been satisfied, waived by the Board, or are deemed to have been satisfied under the rules of the Plan and the Company has issued a vesting notification to the holder, and ends on the Expiry Date (as defined at 10(v) below).

8. Disposal restrictions

Awards granted under the Plan may not be assigned, transferred, novated, encumbered with a security interest (such as a mortgage, charge, pledge, lien, encumbrance or other third party interest of any nature) disposed of by a holder, other than to a nominated party (such as an immediate family member, trustee of a trust or company) in accordance with the Plan, unless:

  • (i) the prior consent of the Board is obtained; or

  • (ii) such assignment or transfer occurs by force of law upon the death of a holder to the holder's legal personal representative.

9. Cashless exercise

Optionholders may, at their election, elect to pay the exercise price for an Option by setting off the exercise price against the number of Shares which they are entitled to receive upon exercise of the Option ( Cashless Exercise Facility ). By using the Cashless Exercise Facility, the Optionholder will receive Shares to the value of the surplus after the exercise price has been set off.

If an Optionholder elects to use the Cashless Exercise Facility, the Optionholder will only be issued that number of Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole number) as are equal to the value of the difference between the exercise price otherwise payable for the Options and the then market value of the Shares at the time of exercise (determined as the volume weighted average price on the ASX over the five trading days prior to providing a notice of exercise).

10. Lapse

Unvested Awards will generally lapse on the earlier of:

  • (i) the cessation of employment, engagement or office of the holder;

  • (ii) the day the Board makes a determination that all unvested Awards and vested Options of the holder will lapse because, in the opinion of the Board the holder has acted fraudulently or dishonestly, or is in material breach of his or her duties or obligations to the Company;

  • (iii) if any applicable Conditions are not achieved by the relevant time;

  • (iv) if the Board determines that any applicable Conditions have not been met and cannot be met prior to the date that is 5 years from the grant date of an Award or any other date determined by the Board and as specified in the Offer ( Expiry Date ); or

  • (v) the Expiry Date.

Where a holder of Awards ceases to be employed or engaged by the Company and is not a “Bad Leaver” (as that term is defined in the Plan), and the Awards have vested, they will remain exercisable until the Awards lapse in accordance with the Plan rules or if they have not vested, the Board will determine as soon as reasonably practicable after the date the holder ceases to be employed or engaged, how many (if any) of those holder’s Awards will be deemed to have vested and exercisable.

Where a holder becomes a “Bad Leaver” (as that term is defined in the Plan), all Awards, unvested or vested, will lapse on the date of the cessation of employment, engagement or office of that holder.
