The issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares did not breach Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.

The funds raised from the Placement will be used primarily to support the upcoming North Rukwa drilling campaign and related technical, appraisal and commercial activity.

MST Financial Services Pty Limited acted as Lead Manager to the Placement (Lead Manager), with Peak Asset Management Pty Ltd acting as co-manager (Co-Manager).

Resolution 1(a) seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of 83,928,751 Tranche 1 Placement Shares issued on 13 April 2026.

Resolution 1(b) seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of 54,002,283 Tranche 1 Placement Shares issued on 13 April 2026.

3.2 ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

Under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A, an eligible entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolutions passed at its annual general meeting, to increase the 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 by an extra 10%, to a combined 25%.

The issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares does not fit within the exceptions set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 25% limit in ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, reducing the Company's capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares.

3.3 ASX Listing Rules 7.4

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company's capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. To this end, Resolutions 1(a) and 1(b) seek Shareholder approval for the ratification of the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares under and for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.4.

3.4 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolutions 1(a) and 1(b) are passed, the Tranche 1 Placement Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company's combined 25% limit in ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of equity securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

If Resolutions 1(a) and 1(b) are not passed, the Tranche 1 Placement Shares will be included in calculating the Company's combined 25% limit in ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

On 27 November 2023, the Company announced that it had entered into loan agreements with sophisticated and professional parties (VAT Loan) (VAT Loan Lenders). Further details of the VAT Loan are in the Company’s announcement on 27 November 2023.

On 15 January 2026, the Company announced that it had reached agreement with the VAT Loan Lenders to partially or fully repay the facilities and defer the maturity date of the Original Loan (for the partially continuing facilities) until 30 June 2027 on the following terms (VAT Rollover Agreement):

(a) one VAT Loan Lender has been repaid in full;

(b) the remaining VAT Loan Lenders have been repaid 25% of their principal and have agreed to rollover their facilities for 18 months;

(c) the revised maturity date of the VAT Loan is 30 June 2027; and

(d) three of the remaining VAT Loan Lenders have agreed to reduce their interest rate to 12% from 15% and the Company has agreed that they will be entitled to convert a third of their respective principal amounts into Shares on the same terms as the next broadly based capital raising by the Company.

9. Resolution 8 – Approval to issue Director Conversion Shares in Conversion of Director Loan (Mr Dennis Donald)

9.1 Background

On 30 June 2025, the Company announced that it had entered into an unsecured loan agreement with Mr Dennis Donald, pursuant to which $200,000 would be advanced to the Company, and that the loan was on commercial and arm's length terms.

On 7 July 2025, the Company announced that Mr Donald had advanced a further sum of $400,000 to the Company, and that apart from the increase in principal, the terms of the loan announced on 30 June 2025 remained unaltered.

On 16 January 2026, the Company announced that Mr Donald has advanced a further sum of $250,000 to the Company, and that the loan was on commercial and arm's length terms.

A summary of the material terms of the loan agreement between the Company and Mr Donald (Director Loan Agreement) is set out below:

(a) (Maturity Date): 31 December 2026

(b) (Interest): 12% per annum, which is payable when the Loans are redeemed in full.

(c) (Security): Unsecured.

(d) (Repayment): All amounts owing under the Loan Agreement must be repaid on the Maturity Date unless repaid earlier.

(e) (Conversion): The Loan Agreement does not include any right to convert the loan to NHE shares.


(f) (Termination): The Loan Agreement shall terminate on the first to occur of an event of default, written agreement between the parties or repayment of all outstanding balances. The events of the default are customary for agreements of this nature, such as insolvency and failure to perform an obligation under the Loan Agreement where the failure cannot be remedied.

The Director Loan Agreement was entered into on commercial and arms' length terms. The funds advanced under the Director Loan Agreement were put towards the Company's current working capital commitments.

The Company and Mr Donald have subsequently agreed that it is in the Company's best interests from a cash flow management perspective to amend the Director Loan Agreement to allow the conversion into Shares of sums owing under the Director Loan Agreement, subject to Shareholder approval, at the same conversion price as the convertible note holders set out in Section 8.1, being $0.029.

Resolution 8 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of up to 31,890,600 Shares (Director Conversion Shares) to Mr Donald (and/or his nominees).

9.2 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

For a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:

(a) obtain the approval of the public company's members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and
(b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,

unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.

The proposed issue of the Director Conversion Shares constitutes giving a financial benefit. Mr Dennis Donald is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director.

In respect of Resolution 8, the Directors (excluding Mr Dennis Donald), each of whom do not have a material personal interest in Resolution 8, have determined that the exception in section 210 of the Corporations Act applies in relation to the proposed issue of Director Conversion Shares to Mr Dennis Donald (and/or his nominees), given that the proposed issue of the Director Conversion Shares is considered to be on arm's length terms, given that the conversion price is $0.029, being the same conversion price of the VAT Conversion Shares and Conversion Shares (the subject of Resolutions 6(a) and 7 respectively).

9.3 ASX Listing Rule 10.11

ASX Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed company must not issue or agree to issue equity securities to:

(a) a related party;
(b) a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the company;
(c) a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (10%+) holder in the company and who has nominated a director to the board of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so;
(d) an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3; or

25


(e) a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX's opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders,

unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.

The proposed issue of the Director Conversion Shares falls within ASX Listing Rule 10.11.1 and does not fall within any of the exceptions in ASX Listing Rule 10.12. Accordingly, the proposed issue of the Director Conversion Shares requires the approval of Shareholders under ASX Listing Rule 10.11.

Resolutions 8 seeks the required Shareholder approval for the proposed issue of the Director Conversion Shares under and for the purposes ASX Listing Rule 10.11.

9.4 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 8 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Director Conversion Shares to Mr Donald within one (1) month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules). As approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Shares (because approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11), the issue of the Director Conversion Shares will not use up any of the Company's 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 8 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Director Conversion Shares to Mr Donald.

9.5 Technical Information required by ASX Listing Rule 10.13

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in respect of Resolution 8:

(a) the Director Conversion Shares will be issued to Mr Dennis Donald (and/or his nominees);

(b) Mr Dennis Donald falls within the category set out in Listing Rule 10.11.1 by virtue of being a Director;

(c) up to 31,890,600 Director Conversion Shares will be issued to Mr Dennis Donald (and/or his nominees);

(d) the Director Conversion Shares issued will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company's existing Shares;

(e) the Director Conversion Shares will be issued no later than one (1) month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules);

(f) the conversion price of the Director Conversion Shares is $0.029 each, being the same conversion price of the VAT Conversion Shares and the Conversion Shares;

(g) the purpose of the issue of the Director Conversion Shares is to satisfy the Company's repayment obligations under the Director Loan Agreement;

(h) the issue of the Director Conversion Shares is not intended to remunerate or incentivise Mr Donald;

(i) the Director Conversion Shares are issued under the Director Loan Agreement (as varied). A summary of the Director Loan Agreement is set out in Section 9.1; and

26


(j) a voting exclusion statement is set out in the Notice in respect of Resolution 8.

9.6 Board Recommendation

The Board (except Mr Dennis Donald) believes Resolution 8 is in the best interest of the Company and its Shareholders and recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 8.

The Chair intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 8.

10. Resolution 9 – Approval to issue MacNiven Securities in Conversion of Loan

10.1 Background

(b) (Maturity Date): 30 June 2027
(c) (Interest): 12% per annum which is payable quarterly in arrears.
(d) (Security): The loan will be secured by a floating charge of the Company.
(e) (Repayment): All amounts owing under the loan agreement must be repaid on the Maturity Date unless repaid earlier.
(f) (Conversion): The loan agreement does not include any right to convert the loan to NHE shares.
(g) (Termination): The loan agreement shall terminate on the first to occur of an event of default, written agreement between the parties or repayment of all outstanding balanced. The events of the default are customary for agreements of this nature, such as insolvency and failure to perform an obligation under the loan agreement where the failure cannot be remedied.

Mr MacNiven previously provided an unsecured loan to the Company on 20 July 2025 on the following terms (July Loan) (July Loan Agreement):

(a) (Amount Advanced): A$200,000
(b) (Maturity Date): 30 June 2026
(c) (Interest): 12% per annum

Mr MacNiven and the Company have also agreed to convert the July Loan on the same conversion terms as those offered to the convertible note holders.

(together, MacNiven Securities) to Mr MacNiven (and/or his nominees).

10.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1

A summary of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 3.2 above.

The issue of the MacNiven Securities falls within exception 17 of ASX Listing Rule 7.2, as the issue of the MacNiven Securities is subject to the Company obtaining prior Shareholder approval. Exception 17 under ASX Listing Rule 7.2 provides that if the issue of any securities requires prior shareholder approval, then such issue is not counted towards the 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

10.3 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 9 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the MacNiven Securities. In addition, the issue of the MacNiven Securities will be excluded in calculating the Company's 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of equity securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the issue date.
