The terms and conditions of the Attaching Options are set out in Schedule 1.
The Shares and Attaching Options under the Placement are proposed to be issued pursuant to a transaction specific prospectus that is expected to be lodged with ASIC and ASX on or about 20 September 2024 ( Prospectus ).

2. RESOLUTION 1 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE SECURITIES UNDER PLACEMENT
2.1 General
As set out in Section 1.1, this Resolution seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 (and all other purposes) for the issue of that number of Shares equal to $1,000,000 divided by the Issue Price, to the Placement Participants, together with 1 free Attaching Option for every 1 Share subscribed for and issued.
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 proposed issue does not fall within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and the Company has decided not to utilise any of its remaining capacity to issue securities without Shareholder approval. The Company is therefore seeking the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
2.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue as described above. 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 Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.
If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue in the manner described above.In such circumstances, the Company would need to assess other avenues to raise the required capital.
2.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.3
| REQUIRED INFORMATION | DETAILS |
|---|---|
| Names of persons to whom Securities will be issued or the basis on which those persons were or will be identified/selected |
The Placement Participants are comprised of professional and sophisticated investors who were identified through a bookbuild process, which involved seeking expressions of interest to participate in the capital raising from non- related parties of the Company. The Company confirms that no Material Persons will be issued more than 1% of the issued capital of the Company. |
| Number of Securities and class to be issued |
The number of Shares to be issued will be equal to $1,000,000 divided by the Issue Price. The maximum number of AttachingOptions to be issued is |
7
4602-08/3519470_10
| REQUIRED INFORMATION | DETAILS |
|---|---|
| equal to 100% of the number of Shares to be issued as the Attaching Options will be issued free attaching with the Shares on a 1:1 basis. |
|
| Terms of Securities | The 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. The Attaching Options will be issued on the terms and conditions set out in Schedule 1. |
| Date(s) on or by which the Securities will be issued |
The Company expects to issue the Securities within 5 Business Days of the Meeting. In any event, the Company will not issue any Securities later than three months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules). |
| Price or other consideration the Company will receive for the Securities |
The Shares will be issued at an issue price equal to the lower of $0.008 and a 20% discount to the 5-day VWAP as at the date of issue. The issue price of the Attaching Options will be nil as they will be issued free attaching with the Shares issued pursuant to the Placement on a 1 for 1 basis. The Company will not receive any other consideration for the issue of the Attaching Options (other than in respect of funds received on exercise of the Attaching Options). |
| Purpose of the issue, including the intended use of any funds raised by the issue |
The purpose of the issue of the Shares is to raise capital, which the Company intends to apply in the manner set out in Section 1.4. The free Attaching Options were offered to attract investor participation in the Placement and, if exercised, will provide the Company with additional working capital. |
| Voting exclusion statement | A voting exclusion statement applies to this Resolution. |
2.4 Dilution
Set out below is a worked example of the number of Shares that may be issued under this Resolution based on assumed issue prices of $0.008, $0.007 and $0.006 per Share, on the basis that $1,000,000 is raised pursuant to the Placement:

Notes :
-
Rounded to the nearest whole number.
-
There are currently 1,445,248,156 Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice and this table assumes no additional Shares are issued, other than the maximum number of Shares which may be issued pursuant to this Resolution, including those Shares issued on conversion of the Attaching Options (based on the assumed issue prices set out in the table).
-
The Company notes that the above workings are an example only and the actual issue price may differ. This will result in the maximum number of Shares to be issued and the dilution percentage to also differ.
As the issue price under this Resolution may be calculated by reference to the market price of the Company’s Shares at a future date, the issue could be highly dilutive to
8
4602-08/3519470_10
existing Shareholders if the market price of the Shares falls substantially between the date of the Notice and the date of issue.
3. RESOLUTION 2 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE SECURITIES UNDER THE SPP
3.1 General
As set out in Section 1.2, this Resolution seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of that number of Shares equal to $1,000,000 divided by the Issue Price, to the SPP Participants, together with 1 free Attaching Option for every 1 Share subscribed for and issued.
A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 2.1 above.
The Company has decided not to rely on exception 5 in Listing Rule 7.2 that would allow it to issue the SPP Shares without Shareholder approval, nor will it utilise any its remaining capacity to issue securities without Shareholder approval. The Company is therefore seeking the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
3.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue as described above. 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 and 7.1A.

4. RESOLUTIONS 3 AND 4 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF SHARES UNDER DECEMBER 2023 PLACEMENT - LISTING RULES 7.1 AND 7.1A
4.1 Background
On 11 December 2023, the Company issued a total of 171,110,576 Shares at an issue price of $0.01 per Share pursuant to a placement to sophisticated and professional investors to raise a total of $1,711,105.76 ( December Placement ) (refer to ASX announcement date 4 December 2023 for further details with respect to the December Placement).
Participants in the December Placement also received 1 free attaching Option exercisable at $0.02 on or before the date which is 2 years from the date of issue for every 2 Shares subscribed for and issued, which were issued following shareholder approval at the General Meeting held on 14 February 2024.
4.2 General
Resolutions 3 and 4 seek Shareholder ratification for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of an aggregate of 171,110,576 Shares on 11 December 2023, comprising 75,158,538 Shares which were issued pursuant to the Company’s placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 (being the subject of Resolution 3) and 95,952,038 Shares which were issued pursuant to the Company’s placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A (being the subject of Resolution 4).
4.3 Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A
A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 2.1 above.
Under Listing Rule 7.1A however, an eligible entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase the 15% Listing Rule 7.1 limit by an extra 10% to 25%. The Company obtained this approval at its annual general meeting held on 22 November 2023.
The issue does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12 month period following the date of the issue.
4.4 Listing Rule 7.4
Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule or Listing Rule 7.1A.
The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rules 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue.
4.5 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

The Company notes that the above workings are an example only and the actual issue price may differ. This will result in the maximum number of Shares to be issued and the dilution percentage to also differ.
As the issue price under this Resolution may be calculated by reference to the market price of the Company’s Shares at a future date, the issue could be highly dilutive to existing Shareholders if the market price of the Shares falls substantially between the date of the Notice and the date of issue.

Indicate who you want to appoint as your Proxy.
If you wish to appoint the Chair of the Meeting as your proxy, mark the box. If you wish to appoint someone other than the Chair of the Meeting as your proxy please write the full name of that individual or body corporate. If you leave this section blank, or your named proxy does not attend the meeting, the Chair of the Meeting will be your proxy. A proxy need not be a securityholder of the company. Do not write the name of the issuer company or the registered securityholder in the space.
Appointment of a Second Proxy
You are entitled to appoint up to two proxies to attend the meeting and vote. If you wish to appoint a second proxy, an additional Proxy Form may be obtained by contacting the company’s securities registry or you may copy this form.
STEP 3 SIGN THE FORM
The form must be signed as follows: Individual: This form is to be signed by the securityholder.
Joint Holding : where the holding is in more than one name, all the securityholders should sign.
Power of Attorney: to sign under a Power of Attorney, you must have already lodged it with the registry. Alternatively, attach a certified photocopy of the Power of Attorney to this form when you return it.
Companies: this form must be signed by a Director jointly with either another Director or a Company Secretary. Where the company has a Sole Director who is also the Sole Company Secretary, this form should be signed by that person. Please indicate the office held by signing in the appropriate place.
STEP 4 LODGEMENT
To appoint a second proxy you must: (a) complete two Proxy Forms. On each Proxy Form state the percentage of your voting rights or the number of securities applicable to that form. If the appointments do not specify the percentage or number of votes that each proxy may exercise, each proxy may exercise half your votes. Fractions of votes will be disregarded. (b) return both forms together in the same envelope.
STEP 2 VOTING DIRECTIONS TO YOUR PROXY
To direct your proxy how to vote, mark one of the boxes opposite each item of business. All your securities will be voted in accordance with such a direction unless you indicate only a portion of securities are to be voted on any item by inserting the percentage or number that you wish to vote in the appropriate box or boxes. If you do not mark any of the boxes on a given item, your proxy may vote as he or she chooses. If you mark more than one box on an item for all your securities your vote on that item will be invalid.
Proxy which is a Body Corporate
Where a body corporate is appointed as your proxy, the representative of that body corporate attending the meeting must have provided an “Appointment of Corporate Representative” prior to admission. An Appointment of Corporate Representative form can be obtained from the company’s securities registry.
