No Securities may be issued on the basis of this Prospectus later than 13 months after the date of this Prospectus.

No person is authorised to give information or to make any representation in connection with this Prospectus, which is not contained in this Prospectus. Any information or representation not so contained may not be relied on as having been authorised by the Company in connection with this Prospectus.

It is important that investors read this Prospectus in its entirety and seek professional advice where necessary. The Securities offered by this Prospectus should be considered as highly speculative.

Applications for Securities offered pursuant to this Prospectus can only be submitted on an original Application Form.

This Prospectus is a transaction specific prospectus for an offer of continuously quoted securities (as defined in the Corporations Act) and has been prepared in accordance with Section 713 of the Corporations Act. It does not contain the same level of disclosure as an initial public offering prospectus and is only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of securities on a company and the rights attaching to the securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses or prospects of the issuing company.

Representations contained in this Prospectus are made taking into account that the Company is a disclosing entity for the purposes of the Corporations Act and certain matters are publicly available information or may reasonably be expected to be known to investors and professional advisers whom prospective investors may consult.

No Investment Advice

The information contained in this Prospectus is not financial product advice or investment advice and does not take into account your financial or investment objectives, financial situation or particular needs (including financial or taxation issues). You should seek professional advice from your accountant, financial adviser, stockbroker, lawyer or other professional adviser before deciding to subscribe for Securities under this Prospectus to determine whether it meets your objectives, financial situation and needs.

Forward-looking statements

This Prospectus contains forward-looking statements which are identified by words such as ‘may’, ‘could’, ‘believes’, ‘estimates’, ‘targets’, ‘expects’, or ‘intends’ and other similar words that involve risks and uncertainties.

These statements are based on an assessment of present economic and operating conditions, and on a number of assumptions regarding future events and actions that, as at the date of this Prospectus, are expected to take place.

Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are beyond the control of the

Company, the Directors and the Company’s management.

The Company cannot and does not give any assurance that the results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus will actually occur and investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forwardlooking statements.

The Company has no intention to update or revise forward-looking statements, or to publish prospective financial information in the future, regardless of whether new information, future events or any other factors affect the information contained in this Prospectus, except where required by law.

These forward-looking statements are subject to various risk factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or anticipated in these statements. These risk factors are set out in Section 5.

Applicants outside Australia

The distribution of this Prospectus in jurisdictions outside Australia may be restricted by law and persons who come into possession of this Prospectus should seek advice on and observe any of these restrictions. Any failure to comply with such restrictions may constitute a violation of applicable securities laws. This Prospectus does not constitute an offer of Securities in any jurisdiction where, or to any person to whom, it would be unlawful to issue in this Prospectus.

Refer to Section 2.10 for further information with respect to overseas investors.

Continuous disclosure obligations

The Company is a “disclosing entity” (as defined in Section 111AC of the Corporations Act) for the purposes of Section 713 of the Corporations Act and, as such, is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company is required to continuously disclose any information it has to the market which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Securities.

This Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Investors should therefore have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest.

Having taken such precautions and having made such enquires as are reasonable, the Company believes that it has complied with the general and specific requirements of ASX as applicable from time to time throughout the three months before the issue of this Prospectus which required the Company to notify ASX of information about specified events or matters as they arise for the purpose of ASX making that information available to the stock market conducted by ASX.

Please refer to Section 6.2 for further details.

Electronic Prospectus

A copy of this Prospectus can be downloaded from the website of the Company at www.minbos.com. If you are accessing the electronic version of this Prospectus for the

i

purpose of making an investment in the Company, you must be an Australian resident and must only access this Prospectus from within Australia.

The Corporations Act prohibits any person passing onto another person an Application Form unless it is attached to a hard copy of this Prospectus or it accompanies the complete and unaltered version of this Prospectus. You may obtain a hard copy of this Prospectus free of charge by contacting the Company by phone on +61 (08) 6219 7171 during office hours or by emailing the Company at [email protected].

The Company reserves the right not to accept an Application Form from a person if it has reason to believe that when that person was given access to the electronic Application Form, it was not provided together with the electronic Prospectus and any relevant supplementary or replacement prospectus or any of those documents were incomplete or altered.

Company Website

No documents or other information available on the Company’s website is incorporated into this Prospectus by reference.

Financial forecasts

The Directors have considered the matters set out in ASIC Regulatory Guide 170 and believe that they do not have a reasonable basis to forecast future earnings on the basis that the operations of the Company are inherently uncertain. Accordingly, any forecast or projection information would contain such a broad range of potential outcomes and possibilities that it is not possible to prepare a reliable best estimate forecast or projection.

Clearing House Electronic Sub-Register System (CHESS) and Issuer Sponsorship

The Company will apply to participate in CHESS, for those investors who have, or wish to have, a sponsoring stockbroker. Investors who do not wish to participate through CHESS will be issuer sponsored by the Company.

Electronic sub-registers mean that the Company will not be issuing certificates to investors. Instead, investors will be provided with statements (similar to a bank account statement) that set out the number of Securities issued to them under this Prospectus. The notice will also advise holders of their Holder Identification Number or Security Holder Reference Number and explain, for future reference, the sale and purchase procedures under CHESS and issuer sponsorship.

Electronic sub-registers also mean ownership of securities can be transferred without having to rely upon paper documentation. Further monthly statements will be provided to holders if there have been any changes in their security holding in the Company during the preceding month.

Definitions and Time

Unless the contrary intention appears or the context otherwise requires, words and phrases contained in this Prospectus have the same meaning and interpretation as given in the Corporations Act and capitalised terms have the meaning given in the Glossary in Section 8.

All references to time in this Prospectus are references to Australian Western Standard Time.

Privacy statement

The information may also be used from time to time and disclosed to persons inspecting the register, including bidders for your securities in the context of takeovers, regulatory bodies including the Australian Taxation Office, authorised securities brokers, print service providers, mail houses and the share registry.

You can access, correct and update the personal information that we hold about you. If you wish to do so, please contact the share registry at the relevant contact number set out in this Prospectus.

Collection, maintenance and disclosure of certain personal information is governed by legislation including the Privacy Act 1988 (as amended), the Corporations Act and certain rules such as the ASX Settlement Operating Rules. You should note that if you do not provide the information required on the Application for Securities, the Company may not be able to accept or process your Application.

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares, at general meetings of shareholders or classes of shareholders:

  • (i) each Shareholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy, attorney or representative;

  • (ii) on a show of hands, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder has one vote; and

  • (iii) on a poll, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder shall, in respect of each fully paid Share held by him, or in respect of which he is appointed a proxy, attorney or representative, have one vote for each Share held, but in respect of partly paid shares shall have such number of votes as bears the same proportion to the total of such Shares registered in the Shareholder’s name as the amount paid (not credited) bears to the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited).

(c) Dividend rights

Subject to the rights of any preference Shareholders and to the rights of the holders of any shares created or raised under any special arrangement as to dividend, the Directors may from time to time declare a dividend to be paid to the Shareholders entitled to the dividend which shall be payable on all Shares according to the proportion that the amount paid (not credited) is of the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited) in respect of such Shares.

The Directors may from time to time pay to the Shareholders any interim dividends as they may determine. No dividend shall carry interest as against the Company. The Directors may set aside out of the profits of the Company any amounts that they may determine as reserves, to be applied at the discretion of the Directors, for any purpose for which the profits of the Company may be properly applied.

Subject to the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act, the Company may, by resolution of the Directors, implement a dividend reinvestment plan on such terms and conditions as the Directors think fit and which provides for any dividend which the Directors may declare from time to time payable on Shares which are participating Shares in the dividend reinvestment plan, less any amount which the Company shall either pursuant to the Constitution or any law be entitled or obliged to retain, be applied by the Company to the payment of the subscription price of Shares.

9

(d) Winding-up

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution, divide among the Shareholders in kind the whole or any part of the property of the Company, and may for that purpose set such value as he considers fair upon any property to be so divided, and may determine how the division is to be carried out as between the Shareholders or different classes of Shareholders.

The liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution, vest the whole or any part of any such property in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as the liquidator thinks fit, but so that no Shareholder is compelled to accept any shares or other securities in respect of which there is any liability.

(e) Shareholder liability

As the Shares issued will be fully paid shares, they will not be subject to any calls for money by the Directors and will therefore not become liable for forfeiture.

(f) Transfer of shares

Generally, shares in the Company are freely transferable, subject to formal requirements, the registration of the transfer not resulting in a contravention of or failure to observe the provisions of a law of Australia and the transfer not being in breach of the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules.

(g) Future increase in capital

The issue of any new Shares is under the control of the Directors of the Company. Subject to restrictions on the issue or grant of Shares contained in the ASX Listing Rules, the Constitution and the Corporations Act (and without affecting any special right previously conferred on the holder of an existing share or class of shares), the Directors may issue Shares as they shall, in their absolute discretion, determine.

(h) Variation of rights

Under Section 246B of the Corporations Act, the Company may, with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a meeting of Shareholders vary or abrogate the rights attaching to Shares.

If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class), whether or not the Company is being wound up, may be varied or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders of three quarters of the issued shares of that class, or if authorised by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.

(i) Alteration of Constitution

In accordance with the Corporations Act, the Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of Shareholders present and voting at the general meeting. In addition, at least 28 days written notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution must be given.

5. RISK FACTORS

5.1 Introduction

The Shares offered under this Prospectus should be considered as highly speculative and an investment in the Company is not risk free.

The Directors strongly recommend that prospective investors consider the risk factors set out in this Section 5, together with information contained in this Prospectus.

The future performance of the Company and the value of the Shares may be influenced by a range of factors, many of which are largely beyond the control of the Company and the Directors. The key risks associated with the Company’s business, the industry in which it operates and general risks applicable to all investments in listed securities and financial markets generally are described below.

The risks factors set out in this Section 5, or other risk factors not specifically referred to, may have a materially adverse impact on the performance of the Company and the value of the Shares. This Section 5 is not intended to provide an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed.

If you do not understand any matters contained in this Prospectus or have any queries about whether to invest in the Company, you should consult your accountant, financial adviser, stockbroker, lawyer or other professional adviser.

5.2 Company specific

(a) Going concern risk and additional requirements for capital

The Company’s interim financial report for the half year ended 30 June 2024 ( Interim Report ) includes a note on the financial condition of the Company and the possible existence of a material uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Group is not currently generating revenues and will not do so until after construction and commissioning of its phosphate fertilizer plant has completed. As at 30 June 2024, the Group had cash and cash equivalents of $3,492,790.

As announced on 14 November 2024, the Company (via its wholly owned Mauritian subsidiary) signed a subscription agreement with the Fundo Soberano de Angola, the Angolan Sovereign Wealth Fund ( FSDEA ) for the strategic investment of US$10,000,000 to fully fund Phase-1 construction of the Cabinda Phosphate Project. The funds will be provided to the Company across three stages (with the first stage funding of US$6,400,000 expected to be received before the end of November).

With the funding from the FSDEA and following the exercise of the MNBAB Options, the Directors believe the Company will have sufficient funds to meet its working capital commitments over the short to medium term. In arriving at this position, the Directors have considered the following matters:

(i) The Company continues its discussions regarding a potential debt funding opportunity with Banco BAI.

(ii) The funding from the FSDEA will assist the Company to meet one of the conditions precedent to the USD $14 million loan facility agreement with the International Development Corporation of South Africa Limited (as announced on 2 October 2024), which is raising $US11M for equity funding to support the development of the Cabinda Phosphate Project.

The Credit Committee of Banco BAI ( Banco BAI ) has provided the Company with preliminary terms pursuant to which it will make available a loan to the Company of approximately USD 12M (11 billion kwanzas), which is provided under the Angolan Central Bank regulations known as Aviso 10, for construction of the phosphate fertilizer plant. Under these regulations, the loan term is expected to be 7 years, the interest is expected to be 7.5% p.a., principal repayments are expected to commence 24 months from the first drawdown and interest payments are expected to commence 12 months into the term of the loan. The

13

(b)

Company and Banco BAI are in the process of finalising the remaining terms of the loan and expect to sign a final term sheet in the short term, at which time the Company will make a fulsome announcement to the market which will summarise the key terms of the loan arrangement. The Board expects that majority of security for the loan will come from guarantees provided by the Angolan Credit Guarantee Fund (Fundo de Garantia Credito or FGC) at a cost of approximately 2% p.a.

The Company will continue to consider additional debt and equity funding opportunities to ensure that the Company is sufficiently funded to meet the Company’s current expenditure commitments and short-term working capital requirements.

Any additional equity financing will dilute shareholdings, and additional debt financing, if available, may involve restrictions on financing and operating activities. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be required to reduce the scope of its operations and scale back its development programmes as the case may be.

There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to secure any additional funding or be able to secure funding on terms favourable to the Company.

Risks with Operating in Angola

The operations of the Company may be affected by various factors, including failure to locate or identify mineral deposits, failure to achieve predicted grades in exploration and mining, operational and technical difficulties encountered in mining. In addition, difficulties in commissioning and operating plant and equipment include mechanical failure or plant breakdown, unanticipated metallurgical problems which may affect extraction costs, adverse weather conditions, industrial and environmental accidents, health incidents including pandemic diseases like COVID-19, industrial disputes and unexpected shortages or increases in the costs of consumables, spare parts, plant and equipment.

In addition, the Company operates out of Angola which has been subject to civil unrest in the recent past. The Company believes that although tension has eased, civil and political unrest and an outbreak of hostilities remains a risk in Angola.

The effect of unrest and instability on political, social or economic conditions in Angola could result in the impairment of the exploration, development and mining operations of the Company’s projects.

At times in the past, Angola has lacked sufficient foreign currency reserves to meet all demands. In such times, it may take weeks for a commercial bank to facilitate an international money transfer. Foreign currency reserves are impacted by such variables as movements in oil prices, being that oil is the country’s largest export commodity in monetary terms, and the countries debt obligations to foreign lenders.

There is also a high level of corruption in Angola, especially in the extractive industries. This corruption often influences the awarding of contracts or the granting of licenses. Furthermore, Angola does not have laws that specifically address corruption, bribery and conflict of interest.

Other possible sovereign risks include, without limitation:

  • (i) changes in the terms of the relevant mining statutes and regulations;

  • (ii) changes to royalty arrangements;

  • (iii) changes to taxation rates and concessions;

  • (iv) changes to Government free carry percentages;

  • (v) not granting or renewing tenements in a timely and predictable manner;

  • (vi) changes in the ability to enforce legal rights;

14

(vii) expropriation of property, licence and contractual rights; and

(viii) restrictions on international money transfers out of the country placed on Angolan commercial banks.

Any of these factors may, in the future, adversely affect the financial performance of the Company and the market price of its Shares.

No assurance can be given regarding the future stability in Angola or any other country in which the Company may have an interest.

(c)

Market Demand Risk

On 19 July 2023, the Company advised that a binding Memorandum of Understanding ( MOU ) had been signed with Grupo Carrinho ( Carrinho ), Angola’s largest agro-industrial group, for the supply of Cabinda Phosphate Rock to be used as fertilizer. The MOU sets out terms such as the supply of fertilizer for up to 869,000 tonnes of Cabinda Phosphate Rock over the first 7 years of production, representing 66% of the stage-1 production over the corresponding period. Plus the MOU includes a proposed pricing mechanism, pegging the relative agronomic effect of Cabinda Phosphate Rock fertilizer to the price of Triple Super Phosphate. The pricing mechanism is in line with the assumptions used in the Definitive Feasibility Study. If this program fails to eventuate into a binding offtake agreement for the Company, or it results in lower or deferred volumes, there is a risk of slower penetration into the market and a longer time to generate returns for debt and equity holders. The Company is in discussions with other potential customers in Angola and potential export customers in China, South Africa and South America to mitigate risk associated with the MOU.

On 1 July 2024, the Company announced that a non-binding memorandum of understanding had been signed with Foskor Pty td ( Foskor MOU ), South Africa’s largest phosphate fertilizer producer. The Foskor MOU contemplates an offtake agreement subject to satisfactory test work by Foskor. The Foskor offtake and any other export sale, will require the physical completion of the deep water port in Cabinda ( Porto do Caio ). The release on 1 July 2024 provided an update on progress at the port which is scheduled for physical completion in December 2025. Until Porto do Caio is operational the Company must use the smaller Cabinda Port which is subject to silt build up if it is not regularly dredged. Silt build up will reduce the size of vessel that can service the Cabinda Port and increase shipping costs.

(d)

Soul Rock Lda

On 23 February 2023, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Phobos Ltd, acquired 85% of the shares of the Angolan entity, Soul Rock-Prospecção, Exploração De Fosfato, Produção e Comercialização de Fertilizantes, Lda ( Soul Rock Lda ), which followed the signing of its Private Investment Contract with Angola’s Agency for Private Investment and Promotion of Angolan Exports (Agencia de Investimento Privado e Promoção das Exportações de Angola or AIPEX ) with respect to the investment in Soul Rock Lda on 22 December 2022.

The Private investment Contract defines the level of minimum investment required to be made by the Company and confirms certain tax incentives and local employment requirements.

The Company has committed to a minimum investment, in the form of loans and capital, that total US$21.36 million.

Although the Company is the majority shareholder of Soul Rock Lda, the Company’s ability to achieve its objectives in respect of Soul Rock Lda is somewhat dependent upon it and AIPEX complying with their obligations under the Private investment Contract giving rise to the parties’ interest, and any other applicable legislation. Any failure to comply with these obligations may result in the Company losing its interest in Soul Rock Lda, which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations and the performance and value of the Company’s Shares.

15

The Company has no current reason to believe that AIPEX will not meet and satisfy its obligations under the Private investment Contract and other applicable legislation. There is also a risk of financial failure or default under the Private investment Contract by AIPEX. Any withdrawal by AIPEX or any issues with their ability to perform the obligations due under the Private investment Contract could have a material adverse impact on the financial position of the Company. There is also the risk of disputes arising with AIPEX, the resolution of which could lead to delays in the Company’s proposed development activities or financial loss.

(e) Construction cost risk

In October 2022, the Company released the Definitive Feasibility Study for its Cabinda Phosphate Project, which included estimates for the construction of a Beneficiation Plant. All construction projects have the risk of material costs rises, or construction delays that result in increased costs.

Additionally, on 23 February 2023, the Company announced an update on a simplified flowsheet for the plant that would result in significant capital cost reduction for its construction.

(f) Obtaining environmental permits for the Cabinda Phosphate Project

The Company has two environmental installation licences for both the mine activities and for the construction of the fertilizer plant of the Cabinda Phosphate Project. Post installation and commissioning, the Company will require two environmental operating licences. It has already lodged an application for the operating licence for its mine and it will only lodge an application for the fertilizer plant near to commencement of its commissioning. If the operating licences are not granted then the Company may need to complete further environmental studies for a new lodgement, which may delay the project, or may cause the project to be postponed indefinitely.

(g) Environmental Risk

The operations and proposed activities of the Company are subject to the environmental laws and regulations of Angola. As with most exploration projects and mining operations, the Company’s activities are expected to have an impact on the environment, particularly if mine development proceeds. It is the Company’s intention to conduct its activities to the highest standard of environmental obligation, including compliance with all environmental laws.

(h)

The Legal Environment in Angola

The Company’s projects are located in Angola. Angola is considered to be a developing country and is subject to emerging legal and political systems as compared with the system in place in Australia. This could result in the following risks:

  • (i) political difficulties in obtaining effective legal redress in the courts whether in respect of a breach of law or regulation or in an ownership dispute;

  • (ii) a higher degree of discretion held by various government officials or agencies;

  • (iii) the lack of political or administrative guidance on implementing applicable rules and regulations, particularly in relation to taxation and property rights;

  • (iv) inconsistencies or conflicts between and within various laws, regulations, decrees, orders and resolutions; or

  • (v) relative inexperience of the judiciary and court in matters affecting the Company.

16

(i) Lack of Specific Infrastructure

The Company’s projects are located in areas of Angola. Generally these areas lack specific infrastructure such as:

  • (i) sources of third party supplied power; and

  • (ii) sources of third party supplied water.

The lack of availability of this infrastructure may affect mining feasibility.

However, the projects are ideally located close to all other major infrastructure including ports. The Company’s projects are located within 50km of the ocean in an area that is heavily populated by oil companies. As such minimal infrastructure is needed to access ports and services and accommodation in the area are excellent.

The Project areas are accessible by road. Roads in the region have recently undergone or are undergoing rebuilding to highway standard and pass through the leases held by the Company.

However, the Company will still be required locate adequate supplies and obtain necessary approvals from national, provincial and regional governments, none of which can be assured.

(j) Workforce and labour risks

The skill base of the local labour force in Angola is limited. There is a shortage of workers with good managerial or technical skills.

HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases represent a serious threat to maintaining a skilled workforce in the mining industry throughout Africa. HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases are a major healthcare challenge faced by the Company’s operations in Angola. There can be no assurance that the Company will not lose members of its workforce, workforce man hours or incur increased medical costs which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations.

Also given the current high level of activity in the global mining industry, the Company may be unable to source personnel and equipment to meets its objectives.

(k) Resource Estimates

Resource estimates are expressions of judgement based on knowledge, experience and industry practice. Estimates which were valid when originally calculated may alter significantly when new information or techniques become available. In addition, by their very nature, resource estimates are imprecise and depend to some extent on interpretations, which may prove to be inaccurate. As further information becomes available through additional fieldwork and analysis, the estimates are likely to change. This may result in alterations to development and mining plans which may, in turn, adversely affect the Company’s operations.

(l) Commodity Price Volatility and Exchange Rate Risks

If the Company achieves success leading to mineral production, the revenue it will derive through the sale of phosphate rock and potential later sales of phosphoric acid, (DAP) and (MAP), exposes the potential income of the Company to commodity price and exchange rate risks. Commodity prices fluctuate and are affected by many factors beyond the control of the Company. Such factors include supply and demand fluctuations for precious and base metals, technological advancements, forward selling activities and other macroeconomic factors.

(m) Tenax

As announced on 3 November 2023, the Company issued a breach notice and subsequent termination notice to each of Tenax Group (formerly EPC Engenharia Projeto e Consultoria Ltda) ( Tenax ) and EPX Angola Engenharia e

17

Gerenciamento Lda who were responsible for the design and scheduling work for the Cabinda Phosphate Fertilizer Plant.

The Company is currently in negotiations with Tenax to agree a settlement with respect to the alleged breach and termination of contract with Tenax. Since entering the negotiations, the Company has paid US$221,825 to Tenax, which it believes satisfies all remaining obligations under the contract. Notwithstanding the initial payment, the Company has offered Tenax an additional US$78,125 upon execution of a settlement deed to fully settle the dispute. As at the date of this Prospectus, the Company is awaiting confirmation from Tenax that such payment will enable the parties to formally settle the dispute.

Notwithstanding the above, there is a chance that the parties cannot agree a final settlement, and the matter progresses to arbitration. In the instance that the Company receives an unfavourable outcome from the arbitrator, this may impact adversely on the Company’s operations, financial performance and financial position. The Company believes that the risk of any legal action in this matter is low, given that the parties have been working towards an amicable solution through their external legal advisors.

5.3 General Risks

(a) Economic

General economic conditions, introduction of tax reform, new legislation, movements in interest and inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company, as well as on its ability to fund its operations.

(b) Market conditions

Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s quoted securities regardless of the Company’s operating performance. Share market conditions are affected by many factors such as:

  • (i) General economic outlook;

  • (ii) Introduction of tax reform or other new legislation;

  • (iii) Interest rates and inflation rates;

  • (iv) Changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

  • (v) The demand for, and supply of, capital; and

  • (vi) Terrorism or other hostilities.

The market price of securities can fall as well as rise and may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general. Neither the Company nor the Directors warrant the future performance of the Company or any return on an investment in the Company.

Applicants should be aware that there are risks associated with any securities investment. Securities listed on the stock market experience extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated to the operating performance of such companies. These factors may materially affect the market price of the Shares regardless of the Company’s performance.

(c) Taxation

The acquisition and disposal of Shares will have tax consequences, which will differ depending on the individual financial affairs of each investor. All potential investors in the Company are urged to obtain independent financial advice about the consequences of acquiring Shares from a taxation viewpoint and generally.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company, its officers and each of their respective advisors accept no liability and responsibility with respect to the taxation consequences of subscribing for Shares under this Prospectus.

18

(d) Changes in Government Policy

Adverse changes in government policies or legislation in Angola and other jurisdictions in which the Company may operate from time to time affecting foreign ownership of mineral interests, taxation, profit repatriation, royalties, land access, labour relations, and mining and exploration activities may affect the operations of the Company. It is possible that the current system of exploration and mine permitting in Angola may change, resulting in impairment of rights and possibly expropriation of the Company’s properties without adequate compensation. In addition, there is a possibility that the Company’s agreements with governments or joint venture partners may be unenforceable against such parties.

(e) Litigation risks

The Company is exposed to possible litigation risks including native title claims, tenure disputes, environmental claims, occupational health and safety claims and employee claims. Further, the Company may be involved in disputes with other parties in the future which may result in litigation. Any such claim or dispute if proven, may impact adversely on the Company’s operations, financial performance and financial position.

(f) Insurance

The Company intends to insure its operations in accordance with industry practice. However, in certain circumstances the Company’s insurance may not be of a nature or level to provide adequate insurance cover. The occurrence of an event that is not covered or fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of the Company.

Insurance of all risks associated with the Company’s business may not always available and where available the costs may be prohibitive.

5.4 Speculative investment

The risk factors described above, and other risk factors not specifically referred to, may have a materially adverse impact on the performance of the Company and the value of the Securities.

Prospective investors should consider that an investment in the Company is highly speculative.

There is no guarantee that the Securities offered under this Prospectus will provide any return on capital, payment of dividends or increases in the market value of those Securities.

Before deciding whether to subscribe for Securities under this Prospectus you should read this Prospectus in its entirety and consider all factors, taking into account your objectives, financial situation and needs.

Remuneration

The remuneration of an executive Director is decided by the Board, without the affected executive Director participating in that decision-making process. The total maximum remuneration of non-executive Directors is initially set by the Constitution and subsequent variation is by ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting in accordance with the Constitution, the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, as applicable. The determination of non-executive Directors’ remuneration within that maximum will be made by the Board having regard to the inputs and value to the Company of the respective contributions by each non-executive Director. The current amount has been set at an amount not to exceed $300,000 per annum.

A Director may be paid fees or other amounts (i.e. non-cash performance incentives such as Options, subject to any necessary Shareholder approval) as the other Directors determine where a Director performs special duties or otherwise performs services outside the scope of the ordinary duties of a Director. In addition, Directors are also entitled to be paid reasonable travelling, hotel and other expenses incurred by them respectively in or about the performance of their duties as Directors.

The following table shows the total annual remuneration paid to both executive and nonexecutive Directors disclosed in the Company’s Annual Reports for the financial year ended 31 December 2022 and 31 December 2023 and the proposed annual remuneration for the financial year ending 31 December 2024.
