Chairman’s letter

23 August 2021

Dear Shareholder

Entitlement Offer

On 16 August 2021, Mitchell Services announced its intention to raise approximately A$10,500,000 through a fully underwritten accelerated non-renounceable pro rata entitlement offer.

The Entitlement Offer is fully underwritten and proceeds will be used to assist in funding a material organic growth strategy which amongst other things will include the funding of capital expenditure to fulfil current and expected contract pipeline requirements.

The institutional component of the Entitlement Offer ( Institutional Entitlement Offer ) was successfully completed on 17 August 2021 and trading in Mitchell Services' shares recommenced on 18 August 2021. The Institutional Entitlement Offer raised approximately A$4.6 million.

Attached to this letter is the information booklet ( Information Booklet ) relating to the retail component of the Entitlement Offer ( Retail Entitlement Offer ). The Retail Entitlement Offer is expected to raise approximately A$5.9 million.

Dream Challenge Pty Ltd (an entity associated with Executive Director Scott Tumbridge) has indicated that it will take up all of its Entitlement and will sub-underwrite a proportion of any shortfall under the Retail Entitlement Offer. Further details on the sub-underwriting arrangement is set out in section 5.6. All other directors and executive management have indicated that they will participate in the Entitlement Offer.

Retail Entitlement Offer

Under the Retail Entitlement Offer, Eligible Retail Shareholders have the opportunity to invest at the same price as the Eligible Institutional Shareholders who participated in the Institutional Entitlement Offer. The number of New Shares for which you are entitled to subscribe under the Retail Entitlement Offer ( Entitlement ) is set out in your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form that will accompany this Information Booklet when it is despatched to Eligible Retail Shareholders today.

The Offer Price of A$0.42 per New Share represents a 13.7% discount to the Theoretical Ex-Rights Price ( TERP )[2] and a 15.15% discount to the last traded price of Mitchell Services of A$0.495 per share on 13 August 2021.

If you take up your full Entitlement, you may also apply for additional New Shares in excess of your Entitlement, at the Offer Price ( Top Up Facility ). The allocation of additional New Shares in the Top Up Facility will be subject to the availability of New Shares under the Retail Entitlement Offer. Mitchell Services retains the flexibility to scale back applications for additional New Shares at its discretion (refer to section 3.4 of this Information Booklet for more information).

The Entitlement Offer is non-renounceable and therefore your Entitlement will not be tradeable on the ASX, cannot be sold and is not otherwise transferable. I encourage you to consider the Entitlement Offer carefully.

Other information

  • ASX announcements relating to the Entitlement Offer, including the Investor Presentation, were released to the ASX on 16 August 2021, which provide information on Mitchell Services, the Entitlement Offer and key risks for you to consider;

  • information regarding the personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form that will accompany this Information Booklet when it is despatched to Eligible Retail Shareholders, which will detail your

2 The Theoretical Ex-Rights Price ( TERP ) is calculated by reference to Mitchell Services' closing price of A$0.495 per share on 13 August 2021, being the last trading day of Mitchell Services prior to the announcement of the Entitlement Offer. TERP is a theoretical calculation only and the actual price at which Mitchell Services' shares trade immediately after the ex-date of the Entitlement Offer will depend on many factors and may not approximate TERP.

Mitchell Services intends to raise approximately A$10.5 million under the Entitlement Offer via an offer of approximately 24,994,286 New Shares at an Offer Price of A$0.42 per New Share. Mitchell Services will use the proceeds of the Entitlement Offer to assist in funding a material organic growth strategy which amongst other things will include the funding of capital expenditure to fulfil current and expected contract pipeline requirements.

The Entitlement Offer has two components:

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • the Institutional Entitlement Offer – Eligible Institutional Shareholders were given the opportunity to take up all or part of their Entitlement, and a bookbuild process to sell Entitlements not taken up by Eligible Institutional Shareholders as well as Entitlements of Ineligible Institutional Shareholders at the Offer Price was carried out, to raise approximately A$4.6 million; and

  • the Retail Entitlement Offer (to which this Information Booklet relates) – Eligible Retail Shareholders will be given the opportunity to take up all or part of their Entitlement to raise approximately A$5.9 million. Eligible Retail Shareholders who take up their full Entitlement may also participate in the Top Up Facility by applying for additional New Shares in excess of their Entitlement at the Offer Price.

Both the Institutional Entitlement Offer and the Retail Entitlement Offer are non-renounceable. Accordingly, Entitlements do not trade on the ASX nor can they be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of. New Shares issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer are to be issued at the same price as New Shares issued under the Institutional Entitlement Offer. In addition, Shareholders' Entitlements under the Institutional Entitlement Offer and the Retail Entitlement Offer are calculated based on the same ratio.

The Entitlement Offer is fully underwritten by the Underwriter in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement (as summarised in section 5.6 of this Information Booklet).

Institutional Entitlement Offer

Mitchell Services has already raised approximately $4.6 million from Eligible Institutional Shareholders as part of the Institutional Entitlement Offer, at the Offer Price. New Shares are expected to be issued under the Institutional Entitlement Offer on 25 August 2021.

Retail Entitlement Offer

The Retail Entitlement Offer constitutes an offer to Eligible Retail Shareholders, who are invited to apply for 1 New Share for every 8 Existing Shares held at 7.00pm (AEST) on the Record Date of 18 August 2021. The Offer Price of A$0.42 per New Share represents a 13.70% discount to TERP[4] and a 15.15% discount to the last traded price of $0.495 per share on 13 August 2021.

The Entitlement Offer is non-renounceable. Accordingly, Entitlements do not trade on the ASX, nor can they be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of.

The Retail Entitlement Offer opens on 23 August 2021. The Information Booklet will be despatched on 23 August 2021, along with a personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form, to Eligible Retail Shareholders. The Retail Entitlement Offer is expected to close at 5.00pm (AEST) on 6 September 2021.

The Retail Entitlement Offer is being made pursuant to section 708AA of the Corporations Act (as modified by ASIC Corporations (Non-Traditional Rights Issues) Instrument 2016/84 and ASIC Corporations (Disregarding Technical Relief) Instrument 2016/73) which allows rights issues to be offered without a prospectus, provided certain conditions are satisfied.

As a result, the Retail Entitlement Offer is not being made under a prospectus and it is important for Eligible Retail Shareholders to read and understand the information on Mitchell Services and the Retail Entitlement Offer made publicly available by Mitchell Services, prior to taking up all or part of their Entitlement. In particular, please refer to the materials enclosed in section 4 of this Information Booklet, Mitchell Services' interim and annual reports, other announcements made available at www.asx.com.au (including Mitchell Services' announcements in relation to the Entitlement Offer released to ASX on 16 August 2021) and all other parts of this Information Booklet carefully before making any decisions in relation to your Entitlement.

Your Entitlement

An Entitlement and Acceptance Form setting out your Entitlement (calculated as 1 New Share for every 8 Existing Shares held on the Record Date with fractional entitlements rounded up to the nearest whole number of New Shares) will accompany this Information Booklet when it is despatched to Eligible Retail Shareholders. Eligible Retail Shareholders may subscribe for all or part of their Entitlement. If you have more than one registered holding of Shares, you will be sent more than one personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form and you will have a separate Entitlement for each separate holding. A copy of your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form can be accessed at www.mitchellservices.com.au.

==> picture [14 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Options available to you

The number of New Shares to which Eligible Retail Shareholders are entitled is shown on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form that will accompany this Information Booklet when it is despatched to you. Eligible Retail Shareholders may:

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • take up their Entitlement in full by the Closing Date and, if they do so, they may apply for additional New Shares under the Top Up Facility (refer to section 3.4);

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • take up part of their Entitlement by the Closing Date, in which case the balance of the Entitlement would lapse (refer to section to 3.5); or

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • do nothing and allow their Entitlement to lapse (refer to section 3.6).

4 The Theoretical Ex-Rights Price ( TERP ) is calculated by reference to Mitchell Services' closing price of A$0.495 per share on 13 August 2021, being the last trading day prior to the announcement of the Entitlement Offer. TERP is a theoretical calculation only and the actual price at which Mitchell Services' shares trade immediately after the ex-date of the Entitlement Offer will depend on many factors and may not approximate TERP.

The Retail Entitlement Offer is an offer to Eligible Retail Shareholders only. Ineligible Retail Shareholders may not take up any of their Entitlements.

Taking up all of your Entitlement or taking up all of your Entitlement and participating in the Top Up Facility

If you wish to take up all of your Entitlement, payment must be made by following the instructions on the personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form which can be accessed at www.mitchellservices.com.au. Please read the instructions carefully. Payments can be by the methods set out in Section 3.9 and 3.10.

Payment must be received by no later than 5.00pm (AEST) on 6 September 2021. If you apply to take up all of your Entitlement, you may also apply for additional New Shares under the Top Up Facility. Amounts received by Mitchell Services in excess of the Offer Price, may be treated as an Application to apply for as many additional New Shares as your Application Monies will pay for in full.

In the event there is a shortfall under the Retail Entitlement Offer, additional New Shares may be allotted under the Top Up Facility at the sole discretion of Mitchell Services. If you apply for additional New Shares under the Top Up Facility and if your application is successful (in whole or in part), your additional New Shares will be issued to you at the same time that other New Shares are issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer. If you apply for additional New Shares, there is no guarantee that you will be allocated any additional New Shares.

Any New Shares referable to Entitlements not taken up by the Closing Date may be made available to those Eligible Retail Shareholders who took up their full Entitlement and applied for additional New Shares under the Top Up Facility. There is no guarantee that such Shareholders will receive the number of New Shares applied for under the Top Up Facility, or any New Shares applied for under the Top Up Facility. New Shares referable to Entitlements not taken up by the Closing Date will only be allocated to Eligible Retail Shareholders if available and then only if and to the extent that Mitchell Services so determines, in its absolute discretion.

Refund amounts, if any, will be paid in Australian dollars. You will be paid by direct credit to the nominated bank account as noted on the share register as at the Closing Date. Refund amounts will be made by cheque if you do not have direct credit instructions noted on your shareholding. To enable shareholders to receive their refund by EFT, shareholders are strongly encouraged to update their bank details at www.linkmarketservices.com.au. For any queries shareholders should contact the Share Registry at 1300 306 413 (within Australia) or +61 1300 306 413 (outside Australia). For refunds not processed by EFT, cheques will be mailed in the post to the relevant shareholders.

==> picture [14 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Taking up part of your Entitlement and allowing the balance to lapse

If you wish to take up only part of your Entitlement, payment must be made by following the instructions on the personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form for the number of New Shares you wish to take up and making payment using the methods set out in Section 3.9 and 3.10 below. If Mitchell Services receives an amount that is less than the Offer Price multiplied by your Entitlement, your payment may be treated as an Application for as many New Shares as your Application Monies will pay for in full. Payment must be received by no later than 5.00pm (AEST) on the Closing Date.

==> picture [14 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Allowing your Entitlement to lapse

If you do not wish to accept all or any part of your Entitlement, do not take any further action and all or that part of your Entitlement will lapse.

==> picture [14 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Consequences of not accepting all or part of your Entitlement

If you do not accept all or part of your Entitlement in accordance with the instructions set out above, those New Shares for which you would have otherwise been entitled under the Retail Entitlement Offer (including New Shares that relate to the portion of your Entitlement that has not been accepted) may be acquired by the Underwriter or any sub-underwriters or by Eligible Retail Shareholders under the Top Up Facility.

By allowing your Entitlement to lapse, you will forgo any exposure to increases or decreases in the value of the New Shares had you taken up your Entitlement and you will not receive any payment or value for all or that part of your Entitlement. Your interest in Mitchell Services will also be diluted.

==> picture [14 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Payment

Payment should be made using BPAY®. If you are based in New Zealand and unable to pay using BPAY®, payments can be made by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) (see section 3.10).

In light of the substantial delays in postage times as a result of the COVID-19 virus, and the period the Entitlement Offer is open, it is considered unlikely that Entitlement and Acceptance Forms that are posted with a payment by cheque will be received by Mitchell Services in time for Mitchell Services to accept under the application. As a result, Mitchell Services has resolved that cash payments or payments by cheque will not be accepted. Receipts for payment will not be issued.

Mitchell Services will treat you as applying for as many New Shares as your payment will pay for in full up to your Entitlement. If your payment will pay for more than your full Entitlement, Mitchell Services will treat you as applying for your full Entitlement and in respect of any excess amount, applying for as many additional New Shares under the Top Up Facility as it will pay for in full.

Any Application Monies received for more than your final allocation of New Shares will be refunded as soon as practicable after the close of the Retail Entitlement Offer. No interest will be paid to applicants on any Application Monies received or refunded.

==> picture [14 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Payment by BPAY®

For payment by BPAY®, please follow the instructions on the personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form. You can only make payment via BPAY® if you are the holder of an account with any Australian financial institution that supports BPAY® Transactions.

If you are paying by BPAY®, please make sure you use the specific Biller Code and your unique Customer Reference Number ( CRN ) on your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form.

If you have multiple holdings and consequently receive more than one personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form, when taking up your Entitlement in respect of one of those holdings only use the CRN specific to that holding. If you do not use the correct CRN specific to that holding your application will not be recognised as valid.

Please note that by paying by BPAY®:

  • if you pay more than is required to subscribe for your entitlement, you will be taken to have applied for additional shares under the Top up Facility, to the extent of the excess.

It is your responsibility to ensure that your BPAY® payment is received by the Share Registry by no later than 5.00pm (AEST) on 6 September 2021. You should be aware that your financial institution may implement earlier cut-off times with regard to electronic payment, and you should therefore take this into consideration in the timing of when you make payment. Mitchell Services shall not be responsible for any delay in the receipt of the BPAY® payment.

Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT)

Shareholders with a registered address in New Zealand may not have access to pay by BPAY® and can make payment by EFT. Payment details for EFT can be obtained by contacting the Registry on 1300 306 413 (within Australia) or +61 1300 306 413 (outside Australia). Please make sure you include your unique Customer Reference Number (CRN) as a reference when making payment by EFT. If you have multiple holdings and consequently receive more than one personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form, when taking up your Entitlement in respect of one of those holdings only use the Customer Reference Number specific to that holding. If you do not use the correct Customer Reference Number specific to that holding your application will not be recognised as valid.

Your EFT payment must be:

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • for an amount equal to A$0.42 multiplied by the number of New Shares (and additional New Shares under the Top Up Facility, if applicable) that you are applying for; and

  • in Australian currency. Payment cannot be made in New Zealand dollars. New Zealand resident shareholders must arrange for payment to be made in Australian dollars.

It is your responsibility to ensure that your payment by direct transfer is received by the Share Registry by no later than 5.00pm (AEST) on 6 September 2021. Applicants should be aware of their financial institution’s cut-off time (the payment must be made to be processed overnight) and it is the Applicants responsibility to ensure funds are submitted correctly by the closing date and time. Mitchell Services and the Share Registry accept no responsibility for incorrect, delayed or misdelivered Application Forms or payments.

Your Application Payment may incur fees and charges from your bank or any intermediary bank as well as the receiving bank. You may have an option to choose that fees are not deducted from the amount transferred however the receiving bank may still deduct a fee for receiving a foreign transfer. If you are paying from a bank account that is not in Australian dollars you may also incur foreign exchange fees.

Entitlement and Acceptance Form is binding

A payment made through BPAY® or, if you are based in New Zealand, by EFT constitutes a binding offer to acquire New Shares on the terms and conditions set out in this Information Booklet and, once paid, cannot be withdrawn. Mitchell Services' decision whether to treat an acceptance as valid and how to construe, amend or complete the Entitlement and Acceptance Form is final.

By making a payment by Bpay® or, if you are based in New Zealand, by EFT, you will also be deemed to have acknowledged, represented and warranted on behalf of each person on whose account you are acting that:

Not for release to US wire services or distribution in the United States

16 August 2021

MITCHELL SERVICES LIMITED (ASX: MSV)

Organic Growth Strategy and Equity Raising

Key points

  • Material organic growth capital investment program underway, including the acquisition of up to 12 new drill rigs in CY21 and CY22

  • The outlook for drilling services demand is the strongest since 2008

  • Expected FY22 revenue of $200m - $220m and FY22 EBITDA of $40m - $44m*

  • Fully underwritten accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer to raise ~$10.5m to support funding of a sizeable organic growth opportunity

  • Major shareholders, including Mitchell Group Pty Ltd (Nathan Mitchell) and Dream Challenge Pty Ltd (Scott Tumbridge) have committed to take up their entitlement in full and (in the case of Dream Challenge Pty Ltd) sub-underwrite a portion of the offer

Mitchell Services Limited (ASX: MSV ) (the Company) is pleased to announce the implementation of an organic growth strategy and associated capital raise.

Growth Strategy

The Company expects to generate FY22 revenue of $200m-$220m and FY22 EBITDA of $40m–$44m.

The Company has a material capital investment program underway which includes the purchase of 9 LF160 drill rigs with a staggered delivery through until 31 December 2021 and includes an option for an additional 3 rigs. Based on the anticipated size of the fleet post implementation of the growth strategy, the business would have the capacity to generate $50m-$60^m EBITDA and to deliver material EPS growth.

The proposed timing also allows the Company to take advantage of the cash flow benefit associated with the ATO’s instant asset write off program.

These rigs were pre-ordered and will be delivered during a period of significant and increasing lead times for rig supply. Other barriers to entry for mining services providers are high and growing, including challenging access to funding with limited lender appetite in the sector, a tightening labour market, and a highly complex regulatory environment. The Company is expecting business conditions to continue improving in the near term with productivity increases (utilised rigs working more shifts), price increases due to the evolving supply and demand landscape, and improvements in general contract terms (for example, larger mobilisation and demobilisation charges, take or pay contracts and pricing flexibility).

^ Assumes that the rig fleet is operating at or near capacity, at current productivity levels and under existing contract terms

*Assumes anticipated levels of work from existing customers and that all existing customers renew their drilling contracts to the extent that such contracts expire during this period. Assumes a 20% EBITDA margin and that there are no material changes in market conditions or operating environments, including no deterioration in COVID19 restrictions and regulations

21

Capital Raising

To support the funding of this sizeable organic growth opportunity, the Company is undertaking a fully underwritten accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer to raise approximately $10.5m ( Entitlement Offer ). Under the Entitlement Offer, eligible shareholders will be able to subscribe for 1 fully paid ordinary share ( New Shares ) for every 8 Mitchell Services shares that they hold at 7.00pm (AEST) on Wednesday, 18 August 2021 ( Record Date ) at the issue price of $0.42 per New Share ( Offer Price ).

The Offer Price represents a discount per share of:

  • 15.15% to the last traded price on 13 August 2021 of $0.495; and

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

  • Mitchell Services Limited (“ Mitchell Services ”) is seeking to raise approximately $10.5m to assist in funding a material organic growth strategy which amongst other things will include the funding of capital expenditure to fulfil current and expected contract pipeline requirements.

  • The outlook for the business is extremely positive and a strengthened capital position will ensure Mitchell Services has the agility, flexibility and capacity to pursue the rapidly growing organic market opportunities, and allow the business to leverage:

  • its demonstrated track record of delivering growth through the cycle with a compound annual revenue growth rate of 44% since 2014;

  • the growing demand for production drilling services driven by a sustained strengthening in commodity prices; and

  • the significant barriers to entry into the drilling services sector, which will continue to drive drilling equipment and service constraints.

  • Mitchell Services is undertaking a fully underwritten $10.5m capital raising via a 1 for 8 pro-rata accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer at $0.42 per share (the “Offer”).

  • Mitchell Services expects to generate FY22 revenue of $200m-$220m and EBITDA of $40m-$44m.

  • Proceeds of the Offer will be used to support the funding of a sizeable organic growth opportunity which includes the acquisition of up to 12 additional drill rigs. Based on the anticipated size of the fleet post implementation of the growth strategy, the business would have the capacity to potentially generate $50m-$60m EBITDA^.

  • Mitchell Services has a proven track record of delivering significant year on year revenue and earnings growth.

  • Major shareholders, Mitchell Group (Nathan Mitchell) and Dream Challenge Pty Ltd (Scott Tumbridge) have committed to take up their entitlement in full under the Entitlement Offer and (in the case of Dream Challenge Pty Ltd) to sub-underwrite a portion of any potential Retail Entitlement Offer shortfall.

  • All eligible Directors and Executive Management have committed to participate in the Entitlement Offer.

  • The Offer is fully underwritten by Morgans Corporate Limited.

*Assumes anticipated levels of work from existing customers and that all existing customers renew their drilling contracts to the extent that such current contracts expire during this period. Assumes a 20% EBITDA margin and that there are no material changes in market conditions or operating environments, including no material deterioration in COVID-19 restrictions and regulations. ^Assumes that the rig fleet is operating at or near capacity, at current productivity levels and under existing contracts terms (including pricing).

ORGANIC GROWTH STRATEGY

  • Mitchell Services has a material capital investment program underway.

  • This investment includes the purchase of 9 LF160 drill rigs that are expected to be delivered by 31 December 2021 and includes an option for an additional 3 rigs.

  • The proposed timing allows Mitchell Services to take advantage of the cash flow benefit associated with the ATO’s instant asset write off program (in place until June 2022 with a proposed extension to June 2023)

  • It was previously Mitchell Services’ intention to sell nominated rigs to provide partial funding for this capital investment program.

  • However, given the strength of the current market and the lead times to procure additional drill rigs, Mitchell Services have opted to retain these rigs as the value to the business will be greater than the net sale proceeds.

  • Based on the anticipated size of the fleet post implementation of the growth strategy, the business would have the capacity to potentially generate $50m-$60m EBITDA and to deliver material EPS growth.

OPPORTUNITY TO LEVERAGE THE CYCLE

  • Significant increase in demand in the gold and base metals sectors with a positive long-term industry outlook.

  • Global government stimulus and subsequent investment into infrastructure and other projects will drive demand for copper and other base metals.

  • In a world where reserves and grades of some commodities are reducing, Australia is seen as a high quality, low risk jurisdiction in which to operate.

==> picture [330 x 180] intentionally omitted <==

  • Increase in new projects and exploration programs due to significantly increased level of capital raising and investment by miners during 2020 and 2021.

  • With approximately 70% of FY21 revenue derived from the gold and base metal sectors, the Company is well placed to take advantage of any further uplift in these markets.

  • “We believe that the last supercycle peaked in 2008 (after 12 years of expansion), bottomed in 2020 (after a 12-year

  • contraction) and that we likely entered an upswing phase of a new commodity supercycle”

JP Morgan macro and quantitative strategist Marko Kolanovic

The outlook for drilling services demand is the strongest that we have seen since 2008

LEVERAGE IN AN IMPROVING MARKET

STAGE 1: AVERAGE OPERATING RIG COUNT INCREASES

  • More rigs start working

STAGE 2: PRODUCTIVITY IMPROVES AS UTILISED RIGS WORK MORE SHIFTS

  • Seasonality impact reduces as rigs work through the wet season

  • More rigs work 24 hours a day 7 days a week versus 12 hours a day

STAGE 3: PRICE INCREASES AS SUPPLY AND DEMAND CHANGES IN FAVOUR OF SERVICE PROVIDERS

  • On average across a range of different drilling types prices are still circa 10% to 30% below those of the highs in the last cycle

STAGE 4: GENERAL CONTRACT TERMS & CONDITIONS IMPROVE

  • Larger up front mobilisation charges to manage ramp up costs

  • Larger demobilisation charges

  • Take or pay contracts

SIGNIFICANT BARRIERS TO ENTRY

  • Access to funding for new mining services providers is challenging given limited lender appetite to the mining services sector.

  • Complex and highly regulated industry.

  • Increasing lead time in relation to the supply of rigs, ancillary equipment and consumables.

  • Significant level of industry consolidation.

  • Tightening labour market and ability to attract and retain a highly skilled labour force.

Suppliers are currently experiencing a surge in global demand for drill rod while continuing to manage supply constraints as a result of Covid-19

Mitchell Services has circa 20,000 pieces of drill rod currently ordered which represents 32% of a major suppliers total Asia Pacific drill rod availability over the next 6 months

APPENDIX 3 – INVESTMENT RISKS

Investors should carefully consider the risk factors described below, in addition to the other information in this document and publicly available information of Mitchell Services, before making an investment decision. If you require further information regarding the appropriateness or potential risks of this investment, you should seek appropriate financial advice. An investment in Mitchell Services is subject to risks, both specific to Mitchell Services and more general risks. Many of these risks are beyond the control of Mitchell Services and, if they were to eventuate, may impact adversely on the performance, or value, of an investment in Mitchell Services. This summary details some of the major risks that you should be aware of when investing in Mitchell Services, however it is not intended to be exhaustive. Investors should be aware that the list of risks described below may not cover all possibilities and should also consider risks specific to their situation. Additional risk factors and uncertainties that are not known to Mitchell Services at the time of this Offer, or which are considered immaterial, may in the future materially impact Mitchell Services’ assets, financial condition or operations and may have an adverse effect on an investment in Mitchell Services.

Environmental issues, climate change and business interruptions

Mitchell Services has exposure to a number of unforeseen environmental issues natural events such as cyclones, persistent rainfall, floods and fire which are beyond its control. Liabilities may be imposed irrespective of whether or not Mitchell Services is responsible for the circumstances to which they relate. Natural events would affect Mitchell Services’ productivity and ability to engage in contract drilling for customers and, as a result, could have a material adverse effect on Mitchell Services. Unstable weather conditions, extreme weather events or climate related causes , unstable service sites, regulatory intervention, delays in necessary approvals and permits or supply bottlenecks may reduce Mitchell Services’ ability to complete drilling services contracts resulting in performance delays, increased costs and loss of revenue. Mitchell Services seeks to mitigate these and other risks by securing clients in multiple geographic locations so as to minimise the impact of events such as the Queensland wet season.

Dependence on key personnel and labour shortages

Mitchell Services’ primary intellectual asset is the skill and experience of its staff. It is essential that appropriately skilled staff be available in sufficient numbers to support Mitchell Services’ operations. There is a risk that Mitchell Services may be unable to attract or retain key personnel and specialist skills and may lose corporate memory. While Mitchell Services has initiatives to mitigate this risk, including implementing special training programs, loss of key staff or failure to attract new staff may have a negative impact on the financial performance or otherwise of Mitchell Services and in particular its ability to expand its business. The loss of key staff to a competitor may magnify this impact.

Industrial Accidents

Industrial accidents may occur with respect to Mitchell Services’ business. In the event of a serious accident, for example resulting in a fatality or serious injury, or a series of such accidents on projects, substantial claims may be brought against Mitchell Services. Any such claim could result in substantial liability for Mitchell Services, which could negatively impact on growth prospects and adversely affect the financial performance and/or financial position of Mitchell Services.

Customer demand and outlook for resources industry

Mitchell Services’ business depends on, amongst other things, the level of mining activity.

Levels depend on a number of factors outside the control of Mitchell Services, including, but not limited to, continued global economic growth, continued international demand and infrastructure constraints experienced by Mitchell Services’ clients. Any prolonged decline in the demand for resources may result in a corresponding decline in the use of Mitchell Services’ services which will have an adverse effect on the financial performance and/or financial position of Mitchell Services.

Commodity prices are volatile. Industry experience indicates that when commodity prices fall below certain levels, mining expenditure and activity decline in the following 12 months. There is a risk that a significant, sustained fall in commodity prices could substantially reduce future mining activity and accordingly demand for Mitchell Services’ services.

Equipment constraints and obsolescence

Some of the specialist services provided by Mitchell Services require the use of purpose-built drilling rigs and equipment. Mitchell Services may have difficulty in gaining access to additional purpose-built rigs or equipment or adequate supplies of equipment at appropriate prices and in a timely manner or the quality of the available equipment may not be acceptable or suitable for its intended use. As technology continues to improve, the current rig fleet may require further investment to prevent obsolescence. Mitchell Services may also not be able to make the necessary capital investment to maintain or expand its rig fleet. Any of these factors may constrain Mitchell Services’ ability to provide services and may ultimately have an adverse effect on its growth opportunities, financial performance and/or financial position.

Concentration risk and industry downturn

Mitchell Services’ focus on drilling gives rise to some degree of concentration risk in that the prospects of Mitchell Services are largely tied to the prospects of the mining industry.

Effects of amended industrial relations laws

Any future changes to Commonwealth industrial relations laws particularly in regard to new awards may result in increased labour and compliance costs. This could impact on the ability of Mitchell Services to retain key personnel, attract new workers or replacement personnel. Any further changes to Commonwealth industrial relations laws may result in additional labour and compliance costs.

APPENDIX 3 – INVESTMENT RISKS (CONT.)

Operational risks

Mitchell Services and its customers are exposed to a range of operational risks relating to both current and future operations. Such operational risks include equipment failures, information technology system failures, external services failure, industrial action or disputes and natural disasters. Whilst Mitchell Services endeavours to take appropriate action to mitigate these operational risks and to insure against them, Mitchell Services cannot control the risks to which its customers are exposed, nor can it completely remove all possible risks relating to its own business.

Changing customer preferences regarding contractual arrangements

The majority of Mitchell Services’ contracts for the provision of services are negotiated on a variable costs relationship-based agreement. However, a small number are negotiated on a fixed-price basis. Fixed-price contracts are typically higher risk. Should customers in the future exhibit a preference for fixed-price contractual arrangements, this may have an adverse effect on the financial performance and/or financial position of Mitchell Services.

Capital and maintenance expenditure

Mitchell Services requires sufficient access to capital to fund the maintenance and replacement of its existing fleet of rigs, plant and equipment and any future expansion. Failure to obtain capital on favourable terms may hinder Mitchell Services’ ability to expand and maintain its fleet of rigs or equipment which may reduce Mitchell Services competitiveness.

Environmental incidents and claims

Mitchell Services operates in an industry where environmental issues, including inclement weather, may delay contract performance or result in complete shutdown of a project, causing a deferral or preventing receipt of anticipated revenues.

Reputation

Mitchell Services ability to retain and source new customers is heavily dependent on its reputation and current relationships with key customers. A dissatisfied customer, poor performance or litigation may result in significant damage to Mitchell Services brand and may impact on Mitchell Services’ ability to maintain existing customers or enter into new customer relationships, resulting in an adverse impact, on its financial performance and/or financial position.

Insurance risks

Mitchell Services provides drilling services to third parties, which exposes Mitchell Services to the risk of liability from non-performance. Mitchell Services contractually limits its exposure to liability, and Mitchell Services maintains public liability insurance. Mitchell Services also has Directors’ and Officers’ insurance, which it believes to be commensurate with industry standards, and adequate having regard to the business activities of Mitchell Services . Nevertheless, there remains a risk that Mitchell Services insurance coverage will be insufficient to meet a very large claim or a number of large claims or that Mitchell Services is unable to secure insurance to satisfactorily cover all anticipated risks or that the costs of insurance will increase beyond anticipated levels.

Operating costs

This is a risk of unexpected increases in variable operating costs including but not limited to labour, insurance and maintenance, which may adversely affect Mitchell Services’ operating and financial performance.

Remote locations

Mitchell Services regularly undertakes projects in remote locations. The remoteness of the location exposes Mitchell Services to an increased risk of a shortage of skilled and general labour and potentially increased costs which may or may not be able to be passed onto the customer. Mitchell Services may also be exposed to a greater risk of logistical difficulties with plant and equipment because of the remote locations of its projects.

Early mine closure

Mitchell Services typically enters into contracts for the provision of services in relation to large, individual mines, which remain in force over extended periods of time. Mitchell Services ordinarily deploys its equipment and/or personnel with a view to providing services in relation to the particular mine on a continual basis over the duration of a service contract’s life.

Future funding

While the Directors believe that Mitchell Services will have sufficient funds to fund its activities in the short term, Mitchell Services is operating in a dynamic and rapidly growing industry. If Mitchell Services does not meet its stated objectives, it may need additional debt or equity funding. Mitchell Services’ ability to raise funds from either debt or equity sources in the future depends on a number of factors, including the state of debt and equity markets, the general economic and political climate and the performance, reputation and financial strength of Mitchell Services. Possible increases in the interest rates, the cost of interest rate hedges and the level of financial covenants required by lenders may adversely impact on the operational and financial results of Mitchell Services. There can be no guarantee that such funding will be available to Mitchell Services on reasonable terms or at all. Any such failure to obtain funding on reasonable terms may result in a loss of business opportunity and excessive funding costs, including dilution to Shareholders if equity funding is pursued. Mitchell Services is obliged to adhere to covenants in its debt facilities. If Mitchell Services performance is significantly below expectations, there is a risk that it may not comply with its borrowing covenants, which may relate in it having to repay debt facilities earlier than their scheduled maturities.

Early or unforeseeable closure of a mine could result in loss of expected revenues, and additional expenses for demobilisation, maintenance and storage of equipment used at that time.

APPENDIX 3 – INVESTMENT RISKS (CONT.)

Forecast dividends

No assurances can be provided in relation to the payment of future dividends. Future determination as to the payment of dividends by Mitchell Services will be at the discretion of Mitchell Services and will depend upon the availability of profits, the operating results and financial condition of Mitchell Services, future capital requirements, covenants in relevant debt facilities, general business and financial conditions and other factors considered relevant by Mitchell Services.

Concentration of shareholding

Entities associated with the Mitchell Group are expected to hold approximately 20% of the issued shares in ~~y~~ Mitchell Services immediately following the issue of shares under the offer. Accordingly, the Mitchell Group and its associated entities will continue to be in a position to exert significant influence over the outcome of matters relating to Mitchell Services, including the election of Directors and the consideration of material Board decisions. Although the interests of Mitchell Services, the Mitchell Group and other shareholders are likely to be consistent in most cases, there may be instances where their respective interests diverge.

No assurance of liquidity or trading price

No assurances can be provided that the Shares (including the New Shares) will trade at any particular price or as to liquidity of trading or that any capital growth in Mitchell Services will translate into a higher price at which the Shares (including the New Shares) trade. The historical performance of Shares provides no guidance as to the future performance of Shares (including the New Shares).

Recognition of revenue

Mitchell Services’ performance is influenced by its ability to win new contracts for the provision of drilling services and the completion of those contracts in a timely and efficient manner. Where new and existing contracts are delayed the recognition of revenue for those contracts may be deferred to later accounting periods.

Entry of new competitors

Compliance

Mitchell Services is subject to strict regulatory and compliance arrangements under the Corporations Act and ASIC policy. Being listed on the ASX imposes various listing obligations with which Mitchell Services must comply on an ongoing basis. ASIC and ASX monitor Mitchell Services’ compliance with the Corporations Act, ASIC policy and the ASX Listing Rules. If ASIC or ASX determine that Mitchell Services has not complied with its obligations, they may take action which would adversely impact Mitchell Services .

Litigation

Litigation risks to Mitchell Services include, but are not limited to, contractual claims, environmental claims, occupational health and safety claims, regulatory disputes, legal actions from special interest groups, as well as third party damage or losses resulting from drilling actions. Mitchell Services is not currently involved in any disputes and is not aware of any circumstances which could give rise to any claims or disputes.

The entry of additional competitors in the drilling services sector could result in reduced operating margins and loss of market share. Such occurrences could adversely affect Mitchell Services’ operating and financial performance.

New and existing customers

Mitchell Services’ ability to grow its business depends, to a large degree, on its ability to secure new customers and contracts. Failure to obtain new drilling contracts or non payment by existing customers may have a material adverse effect on Mitchell Services .

Regulatory environment

The sector in which Mitchell Services operates is highly regulated by the various state and federal governments. Mitchell Services must comply with the relevant regulations and, as a consequence, its ongoing operations are subject to regulatory changes. Changes to the way in which the market is regulated could adversely affect the business or financial performance of Mitchell Services by the imposition of additional capital and/or operational obligations on Mitchell Services.

APPENDIX 3 – INVESTMENT RISKS (CONT.)

Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19)

The events relating to COVID-19 have recently resulted in unprecedented restrictions and lockdowns, including in relation to domestic and international travel and general disruption to business activities. These restrictions have been imposed by domestic and international governments and regulatory authorities, and/or implemented as a matter of best practice during the ongoing health crisis. In addition, events relating to COVID-19 have resulted in significant market falls and volatility, including the prices of securities trading on the ASX. While Mitchell Services’ has remained operational throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the events relating to COVID-19 may have a material adverse effect on, or cause a material adverse change to, Mitchel Services’ business. Given the high degree of uncertainty surrounding the extent and duration of COVID-19, it is not currently possible to assess the full impact of COVID-19 on Mitchell Services’ business. There is also continued uncertainty as to the duration and further impact of COVID-19 including (but not limited to) in relation to government, regulatory or health authority actions, work stoppages, lockdowns, quarantines, travel restrictions and the impact on global economies. There is no certainty that Mitchell Service’s business activities will normalise to a level existing prior to the impact of COVID-19 (or how long such normalisation could take). If the duration of events surrounding COVID-19 are prolonged, Mitchell Services may need to take additional measures in order to respond appropriately (for example, by raising additional funding).

Dilution risk

Investors who do not participate in the Entitlement Offer will have their investment in Mitchell Services diluted. Further, and in addition to the Entitlement Offer, Mitchell Services may issue securities to finance future acquisitions or pay down debt which may, under certain circumstances, dilute the value of shareholders’ interests in Mitchell Services and the proportional beneficial ownership in the underlying assets of Mitchell Services.

Changes in law

Changes in law, government legislation, regulation and policy in jurisdictions in which Mitchell Services operate may adversely affect the value of its portfolio and/or Mitchell Services’ future earnings and performance as well as the value of Mitchell Services’ securities quoted on the ASX.

Taxation risk

There may be tax implications arising from applications for Shares (including New Shares), the receipt of dividends (if any) and returns of capital from Mitchell Services, and on the disposal of Shares. Future tax reforms could impact on the dividends from Mitchell Services and the value of securities, possibly with retrospective effect. Investors should note that Australian tax laws are complex and constantly subject to change.

Accounting standards

The Australian Accounting Standards to which Mitchell Services adheres are set by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and are consequently outside the control of Mitchells Services and Mitchell Services’ directors. Changes to accounting standards issued by AASB or changes to the commonly held views on the application of those standards could materially and adversely affect the financial performance and position reported in Mitchell Services’ financial statements.

Equity raising and underwriting risk

Mitchell Services has entered into an underwriting agreement under which Morgans Corporate Limited has agreed to fully underwrite the Offer, subject to the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement between the parties. If certain conditions are not satisfied or certain events occur, the Lead Manager may terminate the Underwriting Agreement. Termination of the underwriting agreement would have an adverse impact on the proceeds raised under the Entitlement Offer and Mitchell Services sources of funding for acquisitions.

General risks

Other than the specific risks identified above, the price at which Mitchell Services’ shares trade on the ASX may be determined by a range of factors, including inflation, interest rates and exchange rates, consumer confidence levels, changes to government policy, legislation or regulation, the nature of competition in the markets in which Mitchell Services’ operates, inclusion or removal from major market indices and other general operational and business risks. The market for Mitchell Services shares may also be affected by a wide variety of events and factors, including variations in Mitchell Services’ operating results, recommendations by securities analysts, and the operating and trading price performance of other comparable listed entities. A number of factors affect the performance of the stock markets, which could affect the price at which Mitchell Services’ securities trade on the ASX. Among other things, the impact of COVID-19 (or other pandemics or epidemics), geo-political instability, including international hostilities, acts of terrorism, the response to COVID-19 and travel restrictions, epidemics and pandemics such as COVID-19, movements of international and domestic stock markets, interest rates, exchange rates, inflation and inflationary expectations and overall economic conditions, economic cycles, investor sentiment, political events and levels of economic growth, both domestically and internationally as well as government taxation and other policy changes or changes in law may affect the demand for, and price of, shares in Mitchell Services. The share prices for many listed companies in Australian stock markets and in international stock markets have in recent times been subject to wide fluctuations and volatility, which in many cases may reflect a diverse range of non-company specific influences referred to above. In particular, the events relating to COVID-19 have recently resulted in significant market falls and volatility both in Australia and overseas, including in the prices of securities trading on the ASX. There is continued uncertainty as to the further impact of COVID-19 on the Australian economy and equity and debt capital markets including in relation to governmental action, work stoppages, university and school stoppages, lockdowns, quarantines, travel restrictions and the impact on the Australian economy (and international economies) and share markets globally. Any of these events and resulting fluctuations may materially adversely impact the market price of shares in Mitchell Services. It is also possible that new risks may emerge as a result of domestic or foreign markets experiencing extreme stress, or existing risks (including the impacts of COVID-19) may evolve in ways that are not currently foreseeable. The equity capital markets have in the past and may in the future be subject to significant volatility. Some of these factors could affect Mitchell Services’ share price regardless of Mitchell Services’ underlying operating performance. No assurance can be given that the New Shares will trade at or above the offer price for those shares. None of Mitchell Services, its Board or any other person guarantee the market performance of the New Shares.

APPENDIX 6 – UNDERWRITING AGREEMENT SUMMARY

Underwriting Agreement Summary

Mitchell Services has entered into an Underwriting Agreement with Morgans Corporate Limited (" Lead Manager ") in respect of the Entitlement Offer.

The Lead Manager's obligations under the Underwriting Agreement, including to underwrite and manage the Entitlement Offer, are conditional on certain matters, including ASX granting a trading halt, the lodgement of certain ASX materials in accordance with the Entitlement Offer timetable in a form acceptable to the Lead Manager, entities associated with Nathan Mitchell and Scott Tumbridge entering into binding commitment letters confirming their intention to take up all of their entitlements, and the timely delivery of certain due diligence materials, sign-offs, opinions and certificates by Mitchell Services.

If certain conditions are not satisfied, or certain events occur, some of which are beyond the control of Mitchell Services, the Lead Manager may terminate its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement without cost or liability, at any time before the date of Settlement of the Retail Entitlement Offer.

Termination of the Underwriting Agreement may have an adverse impact on the ability of Mitchell Services to proceed with the Entitlement Offer and the quantum of funds raised as part of the Entitlement Offer. If the Underwriting Agreement is terminated by the Lead Manager, there is no guarantee that the Entitlement Offer will continue in its current form or at all. Failure to raise sufficient funds under the Entitlement Offer (as a result of it not proceeding or otherwise) could materially adversely affect Mitchell Services' business, cash flow, financial performance, financial condition and share price.

The events which may trigger termination of the Underwriting Agreement include the following:

  • Mitchell Services ceases to be admitted to the official list of ASX or the Shares are suspended from trading on, or cease to be quoted on ASX or it is announced by ASX or Mitchell Services that such an event will occur (other than due to a trading halt to facilitate the Entitlement Offer);

There may be additional announcements that are made by Mitchell Services (including Mitchell Services' ASX Announcements in relation to the Entitlement Offer dated 16 August 2021 and other announcements after the date of this Information Booklet) that may be relevant to your consideration of whether to take up your Entitlement. Therefore, it is prudent that you check whether any further announcements have been made by Mitchell Services to the ASX before submitting an Application.

==> picture [13 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Eligibility of Retail Shareholders

The Retail Entitlement Offer is being offered to all Eligible Retail Shareholders only.

Eligible Retail Shareholders are Shareholders on the Record Date who:

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • are registered as holders of Existing Shares as at 7:00pm (AEST);

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • have a registered address in Australia or New Zealand as noted on Mitchell Services' share register or are a Shareholder that Mitchell Services has otherwise determined is eligible to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer;

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • are not in the United States and are not a person (including nominees or custodians) acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States (to the extent such person holds Existing Shares for the account or benefit of such person in the United States);

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • were not invited to participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer and were not treated as an Ineligible Institutional Shareholder under the Institutional Entitlement Offer (other than as nominee or custodian, in each case in respect of other underlying holdings); and

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • are eligible under all applicable securities laws to receive an offer under the Retail Entitlement Offer.

By making a payment by BPAY® or, if you are based in New Zealand, by direct transfer, you will be taken to have represented and warranted that you satisfy each of the criteria listed above to be an Eligible Retail Shareholder. Nominees, trustees or custodians are therefore advised to seek independent professional advice as to how to proceed.

Mitchell Services has determined that it is unreasonable to extend the Retail Entitlement Offer to Ineligible Retail Shareholders because of the small number of such Shareholders, the number and value of Shares that they hold and the cost of complying with the applicable regulations in jurisdictions outside Australia and New Zealand, but reserves its right to do so (subject to compliance with relevant laws).

==> picture [13 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Ranking of New Shares

The New Shares issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer will be fully paid and rank equally with Existing Shares. The rights attaching to the New Shares are set out in Mitchell Services' constitution and are regulated by the Corporations Act, Listing Rules and general law.

==> picture [13 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Allotment, trading and quotation

Mitchell Services has applied, or will apply, for quotation of the New Shares on ASX in accordance with Listing Rule requirements. If ASX does not grant quotation of the New Shares, Mitchell Services will repay all Application Monies (without interest).

Trading of New Shares will, subject to ASX approval, occur shortly after allotment. It is expected that allotment of the New Shares under the Retail Entitlement Offer will take place on 13 September 2021. Application Monies will be held by Mitchell Services on trust for Applicants until the New Shares are allotted. No interest will be paid on Application Monies.

Subject to approval being granted, it is expected that the New Shares allotted under the Retail Entitlement Offer will commence trading on a normal basis on 13 September 2021.

It is the responsibility of Applicants to determine the number of New Shares allotted and issued to them prior to trading in the New Shares. The sale by an Applicant of New Shares prior to receiving their holding statement is at the Applicant's own risk. Mitchell Services and the Underwriter disclaim all liability whether in negligence or otherwise (to the maximum extent permitted by law) to persons who trade New Shares before receiving their holding statements, whether on the basis of confirmation of the allocation provided by Mitchell Services or the Share Registry or otherwise.

==> picture [13 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Reconciliation

In any entitlement offer, investors may believe that they own more Existing Shares on the record date than they ultimately do. This may result in a need for reconciliation to ensure all Eligible Shareholders have the opportunity to receive their full Entitlement.

Mitchell Services may need to issue a small quantity of additional New Shares to ensure all Eligible Shareholders have the opportunity to receive their appropriate allocation of New Shares. The price at which these New Shares would be issued, if required, is the same as the Offer Price.

Mitchell Services also reserves the right to reduce the Entitlement or the number of New Shares allocated to Eligible Shareholders or persons claiming to be Eligible Shareholders, if their Entitlement claims prove to be overstated, if they or their nominees/custodians fail to provide information requested to substantiate their Entitlement claims, or if they are not Eligible Shareholders.

==> picture [13 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Underwriting

Mitchell Services and the Underwriter have entered into an Underwriting Agreement pursuant to which the Underwriter has agreed to fully underwrite the Entitlement Offer.

Mitchell Services has agreed to pay the Underwriter:

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • a management fee equal to 1.0% of the proceeds from the Entitlement Offer; and

  • an underwriting fee equal to 3.5% of the proceeds from the Entitlement Offer.

The Underwriter is entitled to be reimbursed for certain costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Entitlement Offer.

Customary with these types of arrangements:

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • Mitchell Services and the Underwriter have given certain representations, warranties and undertakings in connection with (among other things) the Entitlement Offer;

  • Mitchell Services has agreed, subject to certain exclusions, to indemnify the Underwriter, its affiliates and related bodies corporate, and their respective directors, officers, and employees against all claims, demands, damages, losses, costs, expenses and liabilities arising out of or in connection with the Entitlement Offer;

23

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • the obligation on the Underwriter to underwrite the Entitlement Offer is conditional on certain customary conditions precedent. Additionally, the Underwriter may (in certain circumstances having regard to the materiality of the event) terminate the Underwriting Agreement and be released from its obligations under it on the occurrence of certain events. For further details, see the summary of the Underwriting Agreement which is set out in Appendix 6 ( Underwriting Agreement Summary ) of Mitchell Services' Investor Presentation included in section 4 of this Information Booklet;

The directors of Mitchell Services reserve the right to issue any shortfall under the Entitlement Offer at their discretion, but in any event no later than three months after the Closing Date. Any shortfall from the Entitlement Offer will, subject to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, be allocated to the Underwriter or to third party investors as directed by the Underwriter acting reasonably in consultation with Mitchell Services. The basis of allocation of any other shortfall will be determined by the directors of Mitchell Services at their discretion, taking into account whether investors are existing shareholders, Mitchell Services' register and any potential control impacts.

Neither the Underwriter nor any of its related bodies corporate and affiliates, nor any of their respective directors, officers, partners, employees, representatives or agents (together, the Underwriter Parties ) have authorised or caused the issue of this Information Booklet. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Underwriter Parties exclude and disclaim all liability for any expenses, losses, damages or costs incurred by you as a result of your participation in or failure to participate in the Entitlement Offer and this information being inaccurate or incomplete in any way for any reason, whether by negligence or otherwise. The Underwriter Parties do not make any recommendations as to whether you or your related parties should participate in the Entitlement Offer, nor do they make any representations or warranties to you concerning this Entitlement Offer or any such information, and you represent, warrant and agree that you have not relied on any statements made by the Underwriter Parties in relation to the New Shares or the Entitlement Offer generally.

Dream Challenge Pty Ltd (an entity associated with Executive Director Scott Tumbridge) ( Dream Challenge ), and a major shareholder of Mitchell Services, has committed to sub-underwrite a portion of any potential shortfall under the Retail Entitlement Offer. No sub-underwriting fees will be payable to Dream Challenge.

As at the date of this Information Booklet, Dream Challenge holds 7.2% of the issued share capital in Mitchell Services. The potential effect of the issue of New Shares to Dream Challenge as sub-underwriter is dependent in part on the number of New Shares allocated under any shortfall. If there is a shortfall, and Dream Challenge is required to subscribe for the full amount under its sub-underwriting arrangements, then Dream Challenge may be in a position to hold up to 7.3% of Mitchell Services' issued capital.

For further information in relation to the sub-underwriting arrangement, please refer to Appendix 3B submitted to ASX on 16 August 2021.

Ineligible Shareholders

All Shareholders who do not satisfy the criteria to be Eligible Retail Shareholders or Eligible Institutional Shareholders, are Ineligible Shareholders. Ineligible Shareholders are not entitled to participate in the Entitlement Offer, unless Mitchell Services otherwise determines.

The restrictions upon eligibility to participate in the Entitlement Offer arise because Mitchell Services has determined, pursuant to Listing Rule 7.7.1(a) and section 9A(3)(a) of the Corporations Act, that it would be unreasonable to extend the Entitlement Offer to Ineligible Shareholders. This decision has been made after taking into account the number of non-residents in Australia and New Zealand on the Mitchell Services register, the relatively small number and value of New Shares to which those Shareholders would otherwise be entitled and the potential costs of complying with legal and regulatory requirements in the jurisdictions in which the Ineligible Shareholders are located in relation to the Entitlement Offer.

Mitchell Services, in its absolute discretion, may extend the Entitlement Offer to any Shareholder if it is satisfied that the Entitlement Offer may be made to the Shareholder in compliance with all applicable laws. Mitchell Services, in its absolute discretion, reserves the right to determine whether a Shareholder is an Eligible Retail Shareholder, Eligible Institutional Shareholder or an Ineligible Shareholder. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Mitchell Services disclaims all liability in respect of such determination.

The price at which the Entitlements of Ineligible Shareholders will be sold is the Offer Price. Accordingly, Ineligible Shareholders will not receive any payment or value as a result of the issue of any of those New Shares they would have been entitled to subscribe for had they been eligible to participate in the Entitlement Offer.

6 Australian taxation consequences

The taxation implications of the Retail Entitlement Offer will vary depending upon your particular circumstances. Neither Mitchell Services nor any of its Officers or employees, nor its advisors, accepts any liability or responsibility in this regard and recommends that you seek and rely upon your own professional advice in connection with the Retail Entitlement Offer.

This Section 6 does not constitute financial product advice as defined in the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), is confined to taxation issues, and is only one of the matters investors need to consider when making a decision about their investments. Investors should seek advice from their own independent professional adviser before deciding whether to invest in the Retail Entitlement Offer.

The following tax comments in this Section 6 are based on the income tax (including Capital Gains Tax (CGT), Goods and Services Tax (GST) and stamp duty laws in Australia in force as at 30 June 2021. Other than as expressly discussed, the comments do not take into account or anticipate changes in Australian tax law or future judicial interpretations of law after this time unless otherwise specified. The comments also do not take into account tax legislation of any country other than Australia.

Australian tax laws are complex. This summary is general in nature and is not intended to be an authoritative or complete statement of all potential tax implications for each investor or relied upon as tax advice. During the period of ownership of the New Shares by investors, the taxation laws of Australia, or their interpretation, may change. The precise implications of ownership or disposal will depend upon each investor’s specific circumstances. Investors should seek their own independent professional advice on the taxation implications of receiving the Retail Entitlement Offer, participating in the Top Up Facility, holding or disposing of the New Shares, taking into accounting their specific circumstances.

The following information is a general summary of the Australian income tax (including CGT), GST and stamp duty implications of the Retail Entitlement Offer for Eligible Retail Shareholders who are Australian tax resident individuals, complying superannuation entities, trusts (which are not ‘public trading trusts’), partnerships (which are not corporate limited partnerships) and corporate investors that hold their existing and New Shares on capital account. These comments do not apply to:

6.1 Issue of Entitlement

The issue of the Entitlement under the Retail Entitlement Offer should be treated for Australian income tax purposes as an issue of rights to acquire a New Share in Mitchell Services.

The issue of the Entitlement should not in itself result in any amount being included in the assessable income of an Eligible Retail Shareholder on the basis that:

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • the Eligible Retail Shareholder already holds Shares in Mitchell Services;

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • the Entitlement was issued to the Eligible Retail Shareholder because of their ownership of the Shares;

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • the Eligible Retail Shareholder’s existing Shares and New Shares are not held on revenue account or as trading stock;

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • the Eligible Retail Shareholder does not acquire their Shares or New Shares under any employee share scheme;

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • the Eligible Retail Shareholder does not hold existing Shares and New Shares as traditional securities; and

==> picture [10 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • the Eligible Retail Shareholder does not hold existing Shares and New Shares as convertible interests.

==> picture [13 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Non-resident capital gains tax withholding

Mitchell Services will be issuing New Shares to Eligible Retail Shareholders pursuant to the Retail Entitlement Offer. In accordance with subsection 14-225(1) of Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Cth), Mitchell Services declares that, for the period from the date of this Information Booklet until the date of Completion of the Retail Entitlement Offer, it will be a resident of Australia for tax purposes. Accordingly, Eligible Retail Shareholders should not have an obligation to withhold any portion of the price paid for the New Shares under the Retail Entitlement Offer.

==> picture [13 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Exercise of Entitlement and applying for additional New Shares

An Eligible Retail Shareholder will not derive any assessable income, or make any capital gain or capital loss at the time of exercising their Entitlement under the Retail Entitlement Offer or acquiring additional New Shares under the Top Up Facility.

For Australian capital gains tax ( CGT ) purposes, New Shares will be taken to have been acquired on the day that an Eligible Retail Shareholder exercises their Entitlement and additional New Shares will be taken to have been acquired on the date the additional New Shares were issued to the Eligible Retail Shareholder.

The cost base of each New Share and additional New Share will be equal to the Offer Price payable for each New Share and additional New Share respectively (plus any non-deductible incidental costs the Eligible Retail Shareholder incurs in acquiring the New Shares and additional New Shares).

==> picture [13 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Lapse of Entitlement

If an Eligible Retail Shareholder does not accept all or part of their Entitlement in accordance with the instructions set out above, then that Entitlement will lapse and the Eligible Retail Shareholder will not receive any consideration for their Entitlement that is not taken up. There should be no adverse tax implications for an Eligible Retail Shareholder from the lapse of the Entitlement.

Taxation in respect of dividends on New Shares

Australian resident individuals and complying superannuation entities

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE IN THE UNITED STATES

28

Dividends paid by Mitchell Services on a Share will constitute assessable income of an Australian tax resident investor. Australian tax resident investors who are individuals or complying superannuation entities should include the dividend in their assessable income in the year the dividend is paid, together with any franking credit attached to that dividend.

Subject to the comments below at Section 6.6, such investors should be entitled to a tax offset equal to the franking credit attached to the dividend. The tax offset can be applied to reduce the tax payable on the investor’s taxable income. Where the tax offset exceeds the tax payable on the investor’s taxable income, the investor should be entitled to a tax refund equal to the excess.

To the extent that the dividend is unfranked, an individual investor will generally be taxed at their prevailing marginal rate on the dividend received (with no tax offset). Complying superannuation entities will generally be taxed at the prevailing rate for complying superannuation entities on the dividend received (with no tax offset).

Corporate investors

Corporate investors are also required to include both the dividend and, where a fully franked or partially franked dividend is received, the associated franking credit in their assessable income.

Subject to the comments below at Section 6.6, corporate investors should be entitled to a tax offset up to the amount of the franking credit attached to the dividend.

An Australian resident corporate investor should be entitled to a credit in its own franking account to the extent of the franking credits attached to the distribution received. This will allow the corporate investor to pass on the franking credits to its investor(s) on the subsequent payment of franked dividends.

Excess franking credits received by corporate investors will not give rise to a refund entitlement for a company but can be converted into carry forward tax losses instead. This is subject to specific rules on how the carry forward tax loss is calculated and utilised in future years.

Trusts and partnerships

Investors who are trustees (other than trustees of complying superannuation entities, which are dealt with above) or partnerships should include any dividends and any franking credit received in determining the net income of the trust or partnership. Where a fully franked or partially franked dividend is received, the relevant beneficiary or partner may be entitled to a tax offset equal to the beneficiary’s or partner’s share of the net income of the trust or partnership.

Unfranked dividends

Where a dividend paid by Mitchell Services is unfranked, the Eligible Retail Shareholder will be required to include the unfranked amount in their assessable income and there will be no franking offset entitlement.

Non-resident for tax purposes

The tax outcomes described above do not apply in the case of an Eligible Retail Shareholder who is not a tax resident of Australia. Non-resident shareholders will need to separately consider the tax implications of receiving dividends, franked or unfranked, on the New Shares.

==> picture [13 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

New Shares and additional New Shares held at risk

The benefit of franking credits can be denied where an Eligible Retail Shareholder is not a ‘qualified person’ in which case the Eligible Retail Shareholder will not be able to include an amount for the franking credits in their assessable income and will not be entitled to a tax offset.

Broadly, to be a qualified person, an Eligible Retail Shareholder must satisfy the holding period rule and, if necessary, the related payment rule. The holding period rule requires an Eligible Retail Shareholder to hold the New Shares and additional New Shares ‘at risk’ for at least 45

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE IN THE UNITED STATES

29

days continuously during the qualification period – starting from the day after acquisition of the shares and ending 45 days after the shares becomes ex-dividend.

The dates the New Shares and additional New Shares are acquired and disposed of are ignored for the purposes of determining the 45 day period. In determining the length of time for which a particular share has been held, the holding period rule applies on a ‘last in, first out’ basis. Any day on which an Eligible Retail Shareholder has a materially diminished risk of loss or opportunity for gain in respect of the New Shares or additional New Shares (e.g. entering into a contract to sell the New Shares or additional New Shares) will not be counted as a day on which the Eligible Retail Shareholder held the New Shares or additional New Shares ‘at risk’.

This holding period rule is subject to certain exceptions, including where the total franking offsets of an individual in a year of income do not exceed A$5,000.

The related payment rule applies where the Eligible Retail Shareholder has made, or is under an obligation to make, a payment that passes on the benefit of a dividend paid by Mitchell Services to another party. For each such dividend, the related payment rule requires the Eligible Retail Shareholder to have held the New Shares and additional New Shares at risk for a continuous 45 day period as above but within the period commencing on the 45th day before, and ending on the 45th day after, the day the New Shares and additional New Shares become ex-dividend in respect of that dividend. Practically, this should not impact Eligible Retail Shareholders who continue to hold New Shares and additional New Shares and also do not pass the benefit of the dividend to another person.

Eligible Retail Shareholders should obtain their own tax advice to determine if these requirements have been satisfied.

A specific integrity rule prevents taxpayers from obtaining a tax benefit from additional franking credits where dividends are received as a result of “dividend washing”. That is, selling shares on an ex-dividend basis (retaining the dividend entitlement) and then repurchasing the same parcel of shares on a cum-dividend basis. Eligible Retail Shareholders should consider the impact of this measure together with the broader integrity provisions that apply to the claiming of tax offsets, having regard to their own personal circumstances.

==> picture [13 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Disposal of New Shares or additional New Shares – Australian tax residents

Most Australian tax resident investors will be subject to Australian CGT on the disposal of their Shares. Some investors may hold their Shares on revenue account, as trading stock, or be subject to the Taxation of Financial Arrangements regime. Those investors should seek their own independent professional advice in respect of the consequences of a disposal of Shares.

Where investors holder their Shares, New Shares and additional New Shares on capital account, the disposal of New Shares or additional New Shares will constitute a disposal for CGT purposes.

On disposal of New Shares or additional New Shares, an Eligible Retail Shareholder will make a capital gain if the capital proceeds received on disposal exceed the total cost base of the New Shares or additional New Shares. An Eligible Retail Shareholder will make a capital loss if the capital proceeds are less than the total reduced cost base of the New Shares or additional New Shares.

If an Eligible Retail Shareholders derives a net capital gain in a year, this amount is, subject to the following comments, included in the investor’s assessable income. Eligible Retail Shareholders that are individuals, trustee investors or complying superannuation entities and that have held their New Shares or additional New Shares for 12 months or more (excluding the date of acquisition and the date of disposal) at the time of disposal should be entitled to apply the applicable CGT discount factor to reduce the capital gain (after offsetting capital losses). The CGT discount factor is 50% for individuals and trusts and 33.33% for complying superannuation entities. In relation to trusts, the CGT discount rules are complex, but the discount may flow through to presently entitled beneficiaries of the trust where the beneficiary would themselves be entitled to apply the CGT discount.

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE IN THE UNITED STATES

30

For the purpose of determining whether the New Shares have been held for 12 months or more (excluding the date of acquisition and the date of disposal), Eligible Retail Shareholders will be taken to have acquired them when they exercise their Entitlement under the Retail Entitlement Offer. For the purpose of determining whether the additional New Shares acquired under the Top Up Facility have been held for 12 months or more (excluding the date of acquisition and the date of disposal), Eligible Retail Shareholders will be taken to have acquired them at the date the additional New Shares were issued.

Eligible Retail Shareholders that make a capital loss can only use that loss to offset other capital gains from other sources (i.e. the capital loss cannot be used against taxable income on revenue account). However, if the capital loss cannot be used in a particular income year, it can be carried forward to use in future income years to offset capital gains derived in subsequent years, provided certain loss utilisation tests are satisfied (in the case of a corporate investor).

==> picture [13 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Taxation of Financial Arrangements

The application of the Taxation of Financial Arrangements ( TOFA ) provisions under Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Cth) depend on the specific facts and circumstances of the Eligible Retail Shareholder. The TOFA provisions are complex, and Eligible Retail Shareholders should seek advice from an appropriate professional advisor in relation to the implications of the TOFA provisions.

==> picture [13 x 9] intentionally omitted <==

Tax file numbers

An investor is not required to quote their tax file number ( TFN ) to Mitchell Services. However, if their TFN details (or certain exemption details) are not provided, Australian tax may be required to be deducted by Mitchell Services from dividends at the maximum marginal tax rate plus the Medicare levy.

An investor who holds Shares as part of an enterprise may quote its Australian Business Number instead of its TFN.

==> picture [18 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

GST

The acquisition or disposal of the New Shares and/or additional New Shares by an Eligible Retail Shareholder (who is registered or required to be registered for GST) will be classified as a “financial supply” for Australian GST purposes. Accordingly, Australian GST will not be payable in respect of amounts paid for the acquisition or disposal of the New Shares or additional New Shares.

No GST should be payable in respect of dividends paid to investors.

Subject to certain requirements, there may be a restriction on the entitlement of Eligible Retail Shareholders registered for GST to claim an input tax credit for any GST incurred on costs associated with the acquisition or disposal of New Shares or additional New Shares acquired under the Top Up Facility (e.g. lawyer’s and accounts’ fees).

Investors should seek their own tax advice on the impact of GST in their own particular circumstances.

==> picture [17 x 8] intentionally omitted <==

Stamp duty

No stamp duty should be payable on the acquisition of the New Shares on the basis that all of the shares in Mitchell Services are quoted on the ASX (i.e. no classes of unquoted shares on issue) and no person, either alone or together with associated or related persons or as part of substantially one transaction or arrangement with other persons, will hold an interest of 90% or more in Mitchell Services.

Investors should seek their own tax advice as to the impact of stamp duty in their own particular circumstances.

Dear Shareholder

LETTER TO INELIGIBLE SHAREHOLDERS – A$10.5 MILLION NON-RENOUNCEABLE ENTITLEMENT OFFER

On 16 August 2021, Mitchell Services Limited (“Mitchell Services”) announced that it was conducting an A$10.5 million accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer to eligible shareholders to subscribe for 1 new share (“New Share”) for every 8 existing Mitchell Services shares ("Existing Shares") held by that eligible shareholder at the Record Date of 7pm (AEST) on 18 August 2021 ("Entitlement Offer"). New Shares will be issued at an offer price of A$0.42 per New Share.

The Entitlement Offer comprises an institutional component (the "Institutional Entitlement Offer") and a retail component (the "Retail Entitlement Offer"). The Entitlement Offer is being made by Mitchell Services in accordance with section 708AA of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (as modified by, amongst other instruments, ASIC Corporations (Non-Traditional Rights Issues) Instrument 2016/84 and ASIC Corporations (Disregarding Technical Relief) Instrument 2016/73)), meaning that no prospectus or product disclosure statement needs to be prepared.

The Institutional Entitlement Offer has already closed and raised approximately $4.6 million. The Retail Entitlement Offer is expected to raise approximately $5.9 million.

The Entitlement Offer proceeds are expected to be used to assist in funding a material organic growth strategy which amongst other things will include the funding of capital expenditure to fulfil current and expected contract pipeline requirements. An offer booklet in relation to the Retail Entitlement Offer will be mailed to Eligible Retail Shareholders (defined below) on or around 23 August 2021. Further information in relation to the Entitlement Offer has been disclosed on the Australian Securities Exchange ("ASX").

This letter is to inform you about the Retail Entitlement Offer and to explain why you will not be able to subscribe for New Shares under the Retail Entitlement Offer. This letter is not an offer to issue entitlements or New Shares to you, nor an invitation for you to apply for entitlements or New Shares. You are not required to do anything in response to this letter but there may be financial implications for you as a result of the Entitlement Offer that you should be aware of.

The Retail Entitlement Offer is only available to Eligible Retail Shareholders. Eligible Retail Shareholders are those persons who:

  • are registered as holders of Existing Shares as at 7:00pm (AEST) on the Record Date;

  • have a registered address in Australia or New Zealand as noted on Mitchell Services' share register or are a Shareholder that Mitchell Services has otherwise determined is eligible to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer;

  • are not in the United States and are not a person (including nominees or custodians) acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States (to the extent such person holds Existing Shares for the account or benefit of such person in the United States);

  • were not invited to participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer and were not treated as an ineligible Institutional Shareholder under the Institutional Entitlement Offer (other than as nominee or custodian, in each case in respect of other underlying holdings); and

  • are eligible under all applicable securities laws to receive an offer under the Retail Entitlement Offer.

The restrictions upon eligibility to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer arise because of the legal and regulatory requirements in countries other than Australia or New Zealand and the potential costs to Mitchell Services of complying with these legal and regulatory requirements compared with the relatively small number of shareholders in those countries, the relatively small number of existing Mitchell Services shares they hold and the relatively low value of New Shares to which those shareholders would otherwise be entitled. Mitchell Services has determined, pursuant to Listing Rule 7.7.1(a) of the ASX Listing Rules and section 9A(3) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), that it would be unreasonable to make or extend offers to Mitchell Services shareholders in certain countries under the Retail Entitlement Offer.

According to our records, you do not satisfy the eligibility criteria for an Eligible Retail Shareholder as set out above and Mitchell Services is unfortunately unable to extend to you the opportunity to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer. Accordingly, in compliance with ASX Listing Rule 7.7.1(b) and section 9A(3)(b) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), this notice is to inform you that under the terms of the Retail Entitlement Offer, you are not entitled to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer and as such, will not be offered any New Shares under the Retail Entitlement Offer.

Entitlements in respect of the New Shares you would have been entitled to if you were an Eligible Retail Shareholder ("Ineligible Shares") will lapse. The Ineligible Shares will be offered to Eligible Retail Shareholders who apply for additional New Shares in excess of their entitlement, or will be subscribed for by the underwriter to the Entitlement Offer at the Offer Price. Accordingly, there will be no net proceeds of that issue in excess of the Offer Price, and you will not receive any payment or value for those Ineligible Shares. This letter is not an offer to issue New Shares to you, nor an invitation for you to apply for New Shares. This is consistent with the nonrenounceable nature of the Entitlement Offer.

If you have any queries, please contact the Mitchell Services Offer Information Line on 1300 306 413 (within Australia) or +61 1300 306 413 (outside Australia) between 8:30am and 5:30pm (AEST), Monday to Friday.

Yours faithfully,

Greg Switala Company Secretary Mitchell Services Limited
