2.6 Item 7 of Section 611 of the Corporations Act

(a) Section 606 of the Corporations Act – Statutory Prohibition

Pursuant to section 606(1) of the Corporations Act, a person must not acquire a relevant interest in issued voting shares in a listed company if the person acquiring the interest does so through a transaction in relation to securities entered into by or on behalf of the person and because of the transaction, that person’s or someone else’s voting power in the company increases:

  • (i) from 20% or below to more than 20%; or

  • (ii) from a starting point that is above 20% and below 90%,

( Prohibition ).

(b) Voting Power

The voting power of a person in a body corporate is determined in accordance with section 610 of the Corporations Act. The calculation of a person’s voting power in a company involves determining the voting shares in the company in which the person and the person’s associates have a relevant interest.

(c) Associates

For the purposes of determining voting power under the Corporations Act, a person ( second person ) is an “associate” of the other person ( first person ) if:

  • (i) the first person is a body corporate and the second person is:

  • (A) a body corporate the first-person controls;

  • (B) a body corporate that controls the first person; or

  • (C) a body corporate that is controlled by an entity that controls the person;

  • (ii) the second person has entered or proposes to enter into a relevant agreement with the first person for the purpose of controlling or influencing the composition of the company’s board or the conduct of the company’s affairs; or

  • (iii) the second person is a person with whom the first person is acting or proposes to act, in concert in relation to the company’s affairs.

Associates are, therefore, determined as a matter of fact. For example, where a person controls or influences the board or the conduct of a company’s business affairs or acts in concert with a person in relation to the entity’s business affairs.

  • (d) Relevant Interests

Section 608(1) of the Corporations Act provides that a person has a relevant interest in securities if they:

  • (i) are the holder of the securities;

(ii) have the power to exercise, or control the exercise of, a right to vote attached to the securities; or

  • (iii) have power to dispose of, or control the exercise of a power to dispose of, the securities.

It does not matter how remote the relevant interest is or how it arises. If two or more people can jointly exercise one of these powers, each of them is taken to have that power.

In addition, section 608(3) of the Corporations Act provides that a person has a relevant interest in securities that any of the following has:

a body corporate in which the person’s voting power is above 20%;

(i)

9

  • (ii) a body corporate that the person controls.

(e) Associates of ECA

For the purposes of the Corporations Act, no entities other than the members of the ECA Group (being the persons set out in Section 2.2) have or will have a relevant interest in the Company.

  • (f) ECA Group’s existing holdings in the Company

Refer to Section 2.3 for details with respect to the ECA Group’s existing holdings in the Company.

  • (g) Control

The Corporations Act defines “control”, and “relevant agreement” very broadly as follows:

  • (i) Under section 50AA of the Corporations Act control means the capacity to determine the outcome of decisions about the financial and operating policies of the Company.

  • (ii) Under section 9 of the Corporations Act, a relevant agreement includes an agreement, arrangement or understanding whether written or oral, formal or informal and whether or not having legal or equitable force.

2.7 Reason Section 611 Approval is required

Item 7 of section 611 of the Corporations Act provides an exception to the Prohibition, whereby a person may acquire a relevant interest in a company’s voting shares with shareholder approval.

The issues of ECA Shares will result in the ECA Group’s voting power increasing above 20%, as further described in Section 2.3. Accordingly, this Resolution seeks Shareholder approval for the purpose of item 7 of section 611 of the Corporations Act and all other purposes to enable the issue of ECA Shares to on conversion of the Loan Facility and through participation in the Placement.

If approval is not granted, the Company will be required to repay the outstanding loan balance under the Loan Agreement (in respect of Resolution 1) and will not receive the proposed Placement funds (in respect of Resolution 2), each of which may impact the Company’s working capital and growth plans.

2.8 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act requires that 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 issue constitutes giving a financial benefit and ECA Investments is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a company controlled by a Director, Rupesh Singh.

The Directors (other than Rupesh Singh who has a material personal interest in the Resolution) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the issue of the ECA Shares because the agreement to issue both the Debt Conversion Shares and the Placement Shares to ECA Investments was negotiated on an arm’s length basis.

2.9

Listing Rule 10.11

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:

10

  • 10.11.1 a related party;

  • 10.11.2 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;

  • 10.11.3 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;

  • 10.11.4 an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3; or

  • 10.11.5 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 issue falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1. However, as the issue falls within the exception set out in Exception 6 of Listing Rule 10.12, the Company does not require the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.

2.10 Specific Information required by item 7 of section 611 of the Corporations Act and ASIC Regulatory Guide 74

The following information is required to be provided to Shareholders under the Corporations Act and ASIC Regulatory Guide 74 in respect of obtaining approval for item 7 of section 611 of the Corporations Act.

Shareholders are also referred to the Independent Expert’s Report prepared by Moore Australia (VIC) Pty Ltd annexed to this Explanatory Statement at Annexure A.

  • (a) Identity of the Acquirer and its Associates

As set out in Section 2.1, the ECA Shares will be issued to ECA Investments. The associates of ECA Investments are described in Section 2.2

  • (b) Relevant Interest and Voting Power

The relevant interests and voting power of each member of the ECA Group as at the date of this Notice and following the issue of the ECA Shares is set out in Section 2.3.

  • (c) Reasons for the issue of ECA Shares

The ECA Shares are being issued for the following purposes:

  • (i) the Debt Conversion Shares are being issued to discharge debts owing to ECA Investments for an aggregate sum of $3.15 million; and

  • (ii) the Placement Shares are being issued to for the purpose of raising $1.25 million in additional capital, which will be applied toward expansion into new markets such as the Philippines and Brazil, advancing product development and supporting the Company’s working capital requirements

(d) Date of proposed Conversion

If Shareholder approval is received, the issue of the ECA Shares will take place five Business Days after the Meeting, unless the parties otherwise agree.

  • (e) Material terms of the proposed issue of Shares

The Company is proposing to ECA Shares for the reasons set out below:

  • (i) the Debt Conversion Shares are to be issued to convert its outstanding debt owing to ECA under, and in accordance with, the terms of the Loan Agreement, the material terms of which are set out in Section 1.1; and

11

  • (ii) the Placement Shares are to be issued to ECA Investments on the same terms as Placement Shares were issued to the Placement Participants, as set out in Section 1.2.

(f) ECA Group’s Intentions

Other than as disclosed elsewhere in this Explanatory Statement, the Company understands that the ECA Group:

  • (i) has no present intention of making any significant changes to the business of the Company;

  • (ii) has no present intention to inject further capital into the Company;

  • (iii) has no present intention regarding the future employment of the present employees of the Company;

  • (iv) does not intend to transfer assets between the Company and any member of the ECA Group;

  • (v) does not intend to redeploy any fixed assets of the Company;

  • (vi) has no intention to change the Company’s existing policies in relation to financial matters or dividends; and

  • (vii) intends that Mr Singh will continue to act as a Director of the Company.

These intentions are based on information concerning the Company, its business and the business environment which is known to the members of the ECA Group at the date of this Notice.

These present intentions may change as new information becomes available, as circumstances change or in the light of all material information, facts, and circumstances necessary to assess the operational, commercial, taxation and financial implications of those decisions at the relevant time.

(g) Interests and Recommendations of Directors

Other than Rupesh Singh, who was appointed as a non-executive Director on 13 October 2022 in accordance with the terms of a subscription agreement entered into with ECA Investments (refer to announcement dated 11 October 2022), none of the current Board members have a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolutions 1 or 2.

All of the Directors, other than Mr Singh who does not express an opinion due to his interest in the Resolutions, are of the opinion that the issues of Debt Conversion Shares and Placement Shares to ECA Investments are in the best interests of Shareholders and, accordingly, the Directors, other than Mr Singh, recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolutions 1 and 2.

The Directors are not aware of any information other than as set out in this Notice that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to allow them to make a decision whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass Resolutions 1 and 2.

The Chair intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of Resolutions 1 and 2.

(h) Capital Structure

The effect on the Company’s capital structure resulting from the issue of ECA Shares are set out in Section 1.3.

2.11 Advantages

The Directors are of the view that the following non-exhaustive list of advantages may be relevant to a Shareholder’s decision on how to vote on Resolutions 1 and 2:

(a) ECA is a strong institutional shareholder partner who will add value to the Company’s strategic goals and will further the strategic alignment of interests,

12

particularly to assist the Company to grow its platform into new markets in India and surrounding countries;

  • (b) the Company’s net asset position on its balance sheet would improve substantially following both the conversion of the Loan Facility into equity and the investment of $1.25 million under the Placement;

  • (c) the reduction in debt on the Company’s balance sheet may be viewed positively by current Shareholders and potential investors;

  • (d) the additional funds available under the Placement will assist the Company in meeting its strategic objectives and meet its ongoing corporate and working capital requirements; and

  • (e) the potential increase in market capitalisation of the Company following the issue of the ECA Shares may lead to access to improved equity capital markets opportunities and increased liquidity.

2.12 Disadvantages

The Directors are of the view that the following non-exhaustive list of disadvantages may be relevant to a Shareholder’s decision on how to vote on proposed Resolution 2:

  • (a) the ECA Group will become a more significant Shareholder in the Company after the issue of ECA Shares and will be able to influence the Company’s business, operations and financial performance to a greater extent;

  • (b) the interests of the ECA Group may not always be consistent with the interests of all other Shareholders in the Company.

  • (c) the issue of ECA Shares will have a dilutionary impact on the holdings of other Shareholders.

  • (d) the Company’s future capital requirements may require that additional funds are raised through equity, debt or a combination thereof, which could further dilute Shareholders that do not participate in such capital raisings.

2.13 Independent Expert’s Report

The Independent Expert's Report prepared by Moore Australia (VIC) Pty Ltd (a copy of which is attached as Annexure A to this Explanatory Statement) assesses whether each of:

  • (a) the issue of Debt Conversion Shares contemplated by Resolution 1; and

  • (b) the issue of Placement Shares contemplated by Resolution 2,

is fair and reasonable to the non-associated Shareholders of the Company.

In reaching the opinions set out above, the Independent Expert’s Report assessed each Resolution individually, as well as the aggregate impact of both Resolutions.

The Independent Expert’s Report concludes that the both the issue of the Debt Conversion Shares and the Placement Shares to ECA Investments are fair and reasonable .

The Independent Expert notes that the key advantages, disadvantages, other considerations and impacts of the proposal raised in Resolutions 1 and 2 to the Company and existing Shareholders, or the non-associated Shareholders of the Company, are as follows:

N/A
Trading Prices Post-announcement of each of the September Conversion Election and

Other Considerations
Board Board remains identical following Debt Conversion and Placement
Participation.
ECA Group Support Debt Conversion and Placement Participation are tangible confirmation of
the ECA Group’s continued support for the Company (including under the
Distribution and Reseller Agreement)
Disadvantages
Issue Price The issue price under the Debt Conversion closely match the price of a
follow-on capital raising announced by the Company in December 2024 of
$0.017 per Share.
If that price reflected a minority value, when viewed on a control basis of
$0.021 per Share, the issue price under the Debt Conversion would not be
fair. However, the Expert expresses reservations as the usefulness of that
price given it was more than 10 months ago and pre-announcement of
financial results for the period ended 31 December 2024.
Trading Price The recent 30-day post announcement(s) VWAP price is at $0.023 per Share.
If that price reflects a minority value, when viewed on a control basis of
$0.024, the issue price under the Debt Conversion and Placement
Participation would be not fair.
However, the Expert noted that whilst there has been increased unusual
trading activity, it is not convinced that current trading prices represent a
sustained liquid price. The issue price of the Debt Conversion of ($0.017 to
$0.018) and Placement ($0.022) are at least slightly above that minority
traded price before the September Conversion Election.
Control The ECA Group will continue to be overwhelmingly the largest Shareholder
of the Company at:
(a)
59.9% following the Debt Conversion (assuming the Placement
Participation does not proceed);
(b)
51.8% following the Placement Participation (assuming the Debt
Conversion does not proceed; and
(c)
62.8% following both the Debt Conversion and Placement
Participation,
and hold significant influence on Board (unchanged at 1/4th) and
Shareholder decisions.
Liquidity The increased interest of the ECA Group is likely to reduce relative Share
liquidity.
Impact of Resolutions not being approved
Other Funding Directors state there are no other funding mechanisms as readily available
as the Debt Conversion and Placement Participation, noting that Tranche
1of thePlacement has beenexhausted.Directors confirm that it was

14

Resolution 1
Debt Conversion
Resolution 2
Placement Participation
agreed with investors that the proceeds from Tranche 1 of the Placement
were not to be used to repay the Loan Facility.
Operational Results Directors advise that the Company is continuing to incur monthly operating
losses for at least the remainder of CY25 of ~$0.2m per month. The Company
has diminishing resources to fund those losses (on 30 September 2025, cash
was $0.2m).
Going Concern There is an increased risk that the Company will not be able to meet its
funding needs and continue to operate as a going concern. Alternatives
to raise additional equity funds or divest assets are likely to be at terms less
favourable than the Debt Conversion and Placement Participation.

Shareholders are urged to carefully read the Independent Expert’s Report to understand the scope of the report, the methodology of the valuation and the sources of information and assumptions made.

2.14 Voting Prohibition Statement

A voting prohibition statement is included with each of Resolutions 1 and 2.

2.15 ASX Listing Rule 7.1

Approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of ECA Shares as approval is being obtained for the purposes of item 7 of section 611 of the Corporations Act, which is an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 Accordingly, the issue of the ECA Shares to ECA Investments will not be included in the use of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

2.16 Pro forma balance sheet

A pro forma balance sheet of the Company post-the completion of the issue of ECA Shares is set out in Schedule 1.

3. RESOLUTIONS 3 AND 4 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF PLACEMENT SHARES

3.1 Background

As set out in Section 1.2, the Company issued 61,363,632 Placement Shares to the Placement Participants on 14 October 2025, of which:

  • (a) 13,082,835 Placement Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1; and

  • (b) 48,280,797 Placement Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A.

These Resolutions seek Shareholder ratification for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue the Placement Shares to the Placement Participants.

3.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12-month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that 12-month period.

Under Listing Rule 7.1A however, an Eligible Entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25%. The Company obtained this approval at its annual general meeting held on 30 May 2025.

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

15

3.3 Listing Rule 7.4

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

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. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue.

3.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If these Resolutions are passed, the issue will be excluded in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of the issue.

If these Resolutions are not passed, the issue will be included in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of the issue.

The Directors Open Learning Limited 227 Elizabeth Street, Sydney NSW 2000

Dear Directors

INDEPENDENT EXPERT’S REPORT FOR SHAREHOLDERS

RESOLUTIONS 1 AND 2 - PROPOSED ISSUES OF SHARES TO A RELATED PARTY REQUIRING SHAREHOLDER APPROVALS

  1. We refer to our engagement letter dated 27 May 2025 and further instructions and are pleased to submit our Independent Expert opinion on the above Proposal(s).

  2. This summary should be read with the body of our Report, which sets out our scope of work, reasoning, and findings. It should also be read with the Notice of Meeting ( NoM ) provided to Shareholders.

1.1. Introduction

Background

  1. Open Learning Limited ( OLL or Company ) is an Australian company listed on the ASX. The Company is an education technology company that provides a scalable online learning platform to education providers and a global marketplace of short courses and online degrees for learners. Its main activities are in Australia and Malaysia with a growing presence in India.

  2. The nature of the business activity is mainly as a software-as-a-service ( SaaS ) revenue model.

  3. In CY24 it reported revenue of $2.3m and an operating loss of $2.9m. For H1CY25 revenue was $1.4m and a net loss of $1.7m. A net deficiency was reported as -$2.7m (negative) on 30 Jun 25. The current share price of OLL is 4.0 cents[1] per share and a market capitalisation of $21.7m.

  4. ECA Investments Group Pty Ltd ( ECA ) is an education service provider that facilitates international students studying with mainly Australian Universities. ECA currently holds 46.8%[2] of OLL shares and is associated with OLL board member (Mr. Rupesh Singh ).

  5. On 8 May 2025, ECA announced that it had reached an agreement with OLL to extinguish outstanding debt of $2.1m and convert this debt to OLL equity at 1.7c per Share for which a conversion notice was issued. ECA also agreed to provide a revised loan facility of $1.0m. Subsequently, due to the drawing down of that facility, it was announced on 9 Sep 2025 approval is also sought for conversion of that to equity as well at 1.8c per Share. Inclusive of interest, and assuming Shareholder approval of the conversion, the amount converted will be $3.1m. This is the subject of Resolution 1 .

  6. On 8 Oct 2025 ECA announced that it received $2.6m in commitments for a Placement to issue Shares at 2.2cents per Share. Of that, ECA has committed to subscribe for ( Tranche 2 ) $1.3m of the

1 27 Oct 2025, post announcements.

2 Assuming after 14 Oct 2025 Tranche 1 of the Placement.

Placement which is subject to Shareholder approval and Resolution 2 for which this Report is also given. Tranche 1 of the Placement for $1.4m is from unrelated institutional and sophisticated investors, does not require Shareholder approval and completed on or about 14 Oct 2025.

  1. As a result of the Proposal(s), ECA will increase its shareholding in OLL. Summary of the Proposal

  2. The NoM sets out the proposed acquisition of shares by ECA. In summary:

  3. Resolution 1 : The proposed transaction is for OLL to issue up to 177.5m shares for ECA converting $3.1m of debt at 1.7 to 1.8 cents per Share (rounded). As a result of the issue, ECA may increase its interest in OLL from 46.8% to 59.9% (rounded).

  4. Resolution 2 : The proposed transaction is for OLL to issue up to 56.8m shares to ECA for $1.4m cash for the Tranche 2 Placement at 2.2 cents per Share (rounded). As a result of the issue, (and assuming Resolution 1 passes) ECA may increase its interest in OLL from 59.9% to 62.8% (rounded)

  5. We understand that ECA (including Singh) are persons excluded from voting on the Proposal.

  6. We consider the ordinary shareholders other than ECA or their associates as the non-associated shareholders ( Shareholders ).

  7. The issue of shares to ECA on the debt-to-equity conversion and the provision of further funding facilities and the Tranche 2 Placement issue are the Proposals for the purposes of our analysis. Neither Resolution is conditional upon each other and each resolution can be voted for separately. We therefore assess each Resolution separately, as well as assuming if both Resolutions pass.

1.2. Purpose of this Report

  1. Our Report is required for the purposes of Shareholder approval of the Proposal(s) under s.611(7) of the Act and for all other purposes. Under the Proposal(s), ECA’s interest in OLL is already above 20% and will increase further and is therefore considered a control transaction, occurring by means other than takeover bid.

  2. Therefore, the Directors have engaged Moore to prepare this Independent Experts Report. The scope of the Report is to assess whether the Proposal(s) are fair and reasonable to OLL Non-Associated Shareholders in accordance with the Act and any related ASIC Regulatory Guides.

1.3. Basis of evaluation

  1. “Fairness” is a quantitative assessment. “Reasonableness” is a qualitative assessment. To assess if the Proposal(s) are fair and reasonable, we have:

  2. Undertaken a quantitative assessment. The risk to Non-Associated Shareholders is if OLL under-prices the Shares issued to ECA upon conversion of the debt or issue of Tranche 2 Shares.

    • In this context, the Proposal(s) are fair if the conversion or issue Share prices are equal to or exceeds the control value of a OLL share before the Proposal(s).

    • By long standing convention, this is assessed as fair if the minority value of a OLL Share after the Proposal(s) is greater than or equal to the control value of a OLL Share before the Proposal(s).

  3. Assessed the qualitative merits as reasonable if it is fair, or despite not being fair, if the advantages to Shareholders outweigh the disadvantages.

OLL value Pre Proposal

  1. In all the above scenarios we estimate that the Pre Proposal value is between 0.2 to 0.4 cents per Share on a control basis.

  2. The Pre Proposal Share values were estimated using capitalised maintainable revenue ( CFMR ) approach. We selected this methodology as alternate methods were not in our view suitable. For example, we think that the preannouncement Share value does not reflect a deeply liquid and active market price.

  3. For the CFMR methods, the main influences of value are:

  4. Our estimate of normalised maintainable revenue ~ $2.4 to $2.7m based upon recent trading results, excluding revenue from the discontinued Program Delivery operations.

Page | 3

==> picture [595 x 142] intentionally omitted <==

  • Our estimate of a revenue multiple, informed by research, ranging from 1.3x to 1.5x, inclusive of an estimated control premium.

  • Equity adjustments to deduct Pre Proposal debt of $3.1m, but to add Tranche 1 Placement cash proceeds of $1.4m received on or about 14 Oct 2025.

OLL value Post Proposal

  1. We also estimated the Post Proposal Share value on a minority basis for each of Resolution 1, 2 and both Resolutions together. This was estimated from the Pre Proposal equity value on a control basis, adjusted for the debt conversion and / or Tranche 2 Placement Share issue, unavoidable transaction costs, less a minority discount.

  2. The debt conversion price per Share is 1.7 to 1.8 cents and the Tranche 2 Placement price is 2.2 cents.

  3. We then divided this by the total number of Post Proposal shares following the expected issue of the Shares to ECA under each and both Resolutions.

  4. The Post Proposal(s) Share value on a minority basis is 0.2 cents higher ( Resolution 1 ), ~0.1 cent higher ( Resolution 2 ) and ~0.3 cents higher ( Resolutions 1 and 2 ) (rounded) than the Pre Proposal Share value on a control basis.

Fairness opinion

  1. As the Post Proposal(s) minority Share values are greater than (or equal to) the Pre Proposal(s) control Share value at all ranges for Resolutions 1 or 2 and when taken together, in our opinion both Proposal(s) are Fair .

1.5. Summary of qualitative assessment

  1. In our opinion the position of OLL Shareholders is more advantageous Post Proposal(s) than Pre Proposal(s) and therefore the Proposal(s) are reasonable to OLL Non-Associated Shareholders. We are mostly persuaded by the better overall prospects for OLL if the debt conversion and / or Tranche 2 Placement proceeds than what may occur if it does not.

1.6. Summary of Opinion

  1. On the balance of the above matters considered, we think that both Proposal(s) are Fair and Reasonable to the Non-Associated shareholders of OLL.

1.7. Summary of disclosures and limitations

We have assumed a valuation date of 30 Jun 2025 plus adjustments for significant items post that date. A limitation of our conclusion is that market conditions may change between the date of this Report and when the various aspects of the Proposal are concluded.

Individual Shareholder circumstances

3.0 SCOPE OF THIS REPORT

3.1. Purpose

  1. OLL is a public company incorporated in Australia and accordingly is subject to the takeover provisions of the Act.

  2. Under the Act, a shareholder’s interest may only increase when beyond 20% (considered a control transaction) by means other than takeover bid if it falls within one of the allowable exceptions. An exception includes where Non-Associated Shareholders approve the transaction under s.611(7) of the Act.

  3. The requirements for an independent expert’s report are also set out in ASIC RG 111 Table 1 which includes the above circumstance.

  4. Therefore, the Directors of OLL have engaged MAV to prepare this Independent Experts Report for the purpose of assisting Non-Associated Shareholders to evaluate the Proposal(s). The scope of the Report is to assess whether the Proposal(s) are fair and reasonable to OLL Non-Associated Shareholders.

  5. The Report accompanies the NoM sent to Shareholders.

3.2. Basis of evaluation

  1. The Proposal(s) represent an issue of shares to ECA where their interest will exceed 20% and is therefore considered a control transaction.

  2. RG 111 guide states that ‘fair and reasonable’ is not a compound phrase and each element has to be assessed. ‘Fair’ is an assessment of the consideration against the value of the securities to be issued. ‘Reasonable’ is an assessment of the merits of the Proposal(s) and if there are sufficient reasons for the Proposal(s) to proceed.

  3. Therefore, “Fairness” is a quantitative assessment. “Reasonableness” is a qualitative assessment. To assess if the Proposal(s) are fair and reasonable, we have:

  4. Undertaken a quantitative assessment of the Shares issued to ECA upon conversion of the debt or issue of Tranche 2 Shares.

    • In this context, the Proposal(s) are fair if the Conversion price offered is equal to or exceeds the control value of a OLL share before the Proposal(s).

    • By long standing convention, this is assessed as fair if the minority value of a OLL Share after the Proposal(s) is greater than or equal to the control value of a OLL Share before the Proposal(s).

  5. Assessed the qualitative merits as reasonable if it is fair, or despite not being fair, if the advantages to Shareholders outweigh the disadvantages.

  6. In accordance with RG 111 the Proposal(s) are reasonable if it is fair. If despite not being fair, it may be reasonable if we think that the advantages to shareholders outweigh the disadvantages.

  7. In accordance with RG 111, those assessments of fair value include an analysis of value employing accepted valuation methodologies (DCF, CFME/R, Asset based and Market Comparable transactions) which are most applicable.

  8. We have undertaken our valuations assuming a knowledgeable and willing, but not anxious, buyer and a knowledgeable and willing, but not anxious, seller acting at arm’s length. This is a standard of fair value.

  9. We have also assumed a premise of value as a going concern, albeit a material uncertainty noted by the Auditors in the HY25 Half-Year Report.

Page | 15

==> picture [595 x 142] intentionally omitted <==

3.3. Limitations

  1. We have only considered the effects of the Proposal(s).

  2. We are not aware of any other significant limitations on scope. Had our work not been limited in scope, then our opinion could differ, perhaps materially.

3.4. Redraft

  1. In accordance with RG112.57 Independence of Experts, we disclose the following:

  2. We issued a redacted opinion draft for factual review of our Report to the Company on 26 June 2025.

  3. Following factual comments, we issued an unredacted draft of our Report to the Company on 30 June 2025. That Report stated our opinion as ‘Fair and Reasonable’.

  4. On 29 July 2025 we received instructions that the Company had started to draw down the additional facility of $1.0m and that it wanted to also seek approval for its conversion assuming full draw down and interest by 30 September 2025. Whilst the conversion terms did not change (being 25% premium to 30-Day VWAP) the Company instructed us to wait until conversion was agreed. This was agreed on 9 Sep 2025 at 1.8 cents per Share.

  5. On 27 Oct 2025 we received instructions that the Placement (Tranche 1) had occurred, and approval would also be sought for Tranche 2.

  6. This redrafting has not changed our overall opinion or analysis.

3.5. Other terms of reference

  1. We have conducted our Services according to the guidelines contained in APES 110 "Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants " and the principals of APES 225 " Valuation Services ".

  2. We confirm MAV are the holder of AFSL licence 247 262, which authorises us to provide reports and advice in respect of securities. A copy of our Financial Services Guide is included in Appendix 4 .

  3. Regulatory guidance from ASIC includes:

  4. RG 112 “Independence of Experts March 2011”. We confirm our qualifications and independence in Appendix 3 .

  5. RG 111 “Content of Experts Reports – October 2020”. Relevant guidance is given based on evaluation including the standard of fair market value on a control basis and the use of prospective financial information only where there is a ‘reasonable’ (and not hypothetical – per RG 170) basis to do so.

  6. RG 170 “Prospective Financial Information – April 2011” – factors that indicate ‘reasonable grounds’ for prospective financial information.

  7. RG 74 “Acquisitions approved by members – December 2011”.

  8. RG 76 “Related party transactions” – March 2011.

  • Acquired The Uni Guide in 2024. A higher education marketplace that helps universities and colleges recruit students, attracting nearly 1m annual visitors, with a growing focus on international student placements.

  • Expansion of The Uni Guide is progressing with international student agent agreements now in place with the University of the Sunshine Coast and IMU University Malaysia.

  • Successful Capital raise in Oct 2025 (the $2.6m Placement).

  • Real decline in net-operating cash out flows, despite changing policy (1 Jan 25) to no-longer capitalise a portion of its platform software investment.

  • ECA is an education service provider that facilitates international students studying with mainly Australian Universities. ECA currently holds 46.8% of the OLL shares and has one representative board member (Singh) appointed to OLL. OLL also has an exclusive Distribution Reseller Agreement with ECA signed 7 March 2023. That agreement pays ECA commercial fees to use the OLL platform to grow into markets in India and the sub-continent.

  1. There are 544.2m shares on issue. All shares carry equal voting rights with one fully paid Share entitled to one vote at a meeting of the Shareholders. The 31 Dec 2024 Annual Report states that there are 1,305 Shareholders in total with 852 holding an unmarketable parcel of shares totalling 7.9m shares.

  2. We observe that the capital structure of OLL is concentrated both Pre and Post Proposal. The largest shareholder by some margin is ECA, whose interest increases from 46.8% to 59.9% Pre to Post Proposal Resolution 1 by 177.5m Shares. If Resolution 2 also passes, then ECA’s interest increases further to 62.8% by 56.8m Shares.

  3. Outside the top 10, no shareholder individually has more than 1.0%, (all rounded).

  4. We highlight that (non-associated) Shareholders interests will fall from 53.2% to 37.2% Post both Proposals (being 100% less ECA’s interests).

  5. The contributed equity to the Company to 30 Jun 2025 was $40.3m arising from previous capital raisings and debt conversions.

  6. Not shown in the above table are 11.0m unquoted options (exercise prices 5 cents to 30 cents) and 13.5m performance rights[5] held by executives and Directors which continue to exist (if approved) whether the Proposal proceeds or not. Therefore, we have excluded these from our analysis.

4.3. Financial Performance of Company

  1. The historical financial information in this Section was extracted from the audited financial reports for 31 Dec CY23 to CY24 . We also show audit reviewed information for the half year ended 30 Jun 2025 ( H1CY25 ).

  2. The Auditor, Hall Chadwick Sydney issued an unqualified audit opinion dated 31 Mar 2025 on the CY24 financial report. Without modifying their opinion, their report contained a paragraph highlighting

  1. Table notes are as follows:

  2. a) SaaS subscription revenue grew YoY 16.2% in CY24, 12.7% H1CY25, driven by increased customer adoption and expansion of AI-powered features. Customer numbers increased to 265. On an annualised recurring revenue (ARR) basis, SaaS revenue also grew 22% to 2.7m.

  3. b) By the end of CY23, OLL made a strategic decision to discontinue the Program Delivery (learning design) business which related to developing course content. OLL is focussing on the SaaS education platform business only. A below EBITDA impairment loss of $0.5m was recorded for the write-off of intangible assets related to Program Delivery in CY23.

  4. c) Market place sales relate to education websites, which OLL expect to grow further given recently announced website acquisitions. We have shown this as net of revenue shared with external content course creators (CY24: $1.4m, CY23: $0.8m).

  5. d) Web hosting and direct costs in CY24 and H1CY25 have been stable in $ and % to revenue amounts YoY due to improvements in the architecture of OLL’s platform, optimisation of cloud resource usage and a shift towards higher value usage-based SaaS customers.

  6. e) Employee benefits continue to be the most significant operating costs. These have reduced in CY24, partly related to non-cash share-based expenses as well as core savings resulting from the discontinuance of the Program Delivery business. Some non-recurring retrenchment costs have been recorded below EBITDA. Some costs have also been capitalised into Platform Development intangible assets (e.g. development of The Uni Guide platform). However, costs have appeared to increase in H1CY25.

  7. f) Promotional & Advertising costs continue to remain flat, as the Company continues to preserve funds and seek alternate means of sales and distribution (e.g. with ECA).

  8. g) The Company is below commercial scale and therefore incurs heavy operating losses.

  9. h) Cash flow from operations is also negative and aligns with or better than EBITDA losses.

  10. i) We also show Total Revenue excluding Program Delivery revenue (due to that operation being discontinued). We use this adjusted revenue total later in our calculations.

  11. In our view the historical financial performance of the Company reflects an earlier stage business that is yet to achieve commercial scale revenues. It is likely that the Company will require additional funds to continue operations.

  1. Table notes are:

  2. a) We regard the whole of the 30 Jun 2025 cash balance as part of working capital due to a monthly operating loss run rate of approximately $0.2m. As noted above, the Company drew down the additional $1.0m facility post that date. On 30 Sep 2025 (prior to Tranche 1) the cash balance was $0.2m. In our view funds are not a surplus asset available for distribution to Shareholders or to pay down debt.

  3. b) Trade and other receivables we assume are in good order and realisable.

  4. c) Intangible assets include capitalised development costs at cost; post write off of the Program Delivery operation. We think that this is unlikely to represent the current fair value of these assets. The increase in CY24 is due to the development and expansion of the UniGuide platform.

  5. d) Trade payables continue to be at elevated levels given the expenses of the business. They exceed trade receivables.

  6. e) Deferred revenue mostly relates to the SaaS revenue pattern of billing vs. the subscription period. We regard this as part of working capital which is offset by the cash balance and debtors also included in working capital. We observe that negative management EBITDA and cash flow from operations are closely aligned.

  7. f) Borrowings relate to the ECA debt facility. In CY24, OLL management converted the CY23 debt balance of $3.1m into equity before drawing an additional $2.0m from the ECA facility. The current

Page | 22

==> picture [595 x 142] intentionally omitted <==

Proposal seeks to convert the CY24 borrowings of $2.1m into equity, as well as the $1.0m facility drawn down post 30 Jun 2025.

  1. On 30 Jun 2025, the Company exhibits negative net operating assets and has a net deficiency due to operating losses and borrowings. The change in net assets largely reflects losses offset by the net changes in debt balance as mentioned above.

  2. As noted, it is likely that the Company will have to raise additional funds to continue operations and can only continue to trade as a going concern with the forbearance of ECA as its lender.

4.5. Share trading performance of the Company

  1. We set out below the recent share trading performance of the Company to Oct 2025:

  1. The chart shows the Share price activity for the past 1 year. Key highlights below:

  2. a) Nov & Dec 2024, Capital Raise - successfully executed follow-on equity offerings of $1.0m to new institutional and sophisticated investors. This was at the same price as the current Proposal from ECA, 1.7 cents per share.

  3. b) Apr 2025, Strategic acquisition of Employability Advantage (EA) from ECA Investments for $1, expanding service offerings (adding work-readiness tools - resume builder, interview simulators).

  4. c) 8 May 2025, Announcement of the current Proposal for the debt conversion and issue of shares to ECA.

  5. d) 9 Sep announcement of additional $1.0m debt conversion.

  6. e) 8 Oct announcement of the $2.5m Placement.

  7. The implied market capitalisation of the Company at the current share price of 4.0[6] cents is $21.7m which is more than the book net deficiency of assets of -$2.7m taken from Table 4. This price is likely strongly influenced by announcements of the Proposal(s) noted above.

Source: S&PCapIQ and MAV analysis – calculated using daily prices and volumes

* Note: The 30-Day VWAP’s were calculated to 9 Sep and 8 May to align with the basis for the debt conversion. The first conversion was on notice was on 8 May 2025 announcement.

  1. We calculated the VWAP for the periods shown in Table 5 as well as the annualised number of shares traded in the periods.

  2. This results in a price of 1.6 cents per share over the last 12 months, and 1.7 cents and 1.8 cents for the 3 and 6 months, respectively, preceding the announcement of the proposal.

  3. Further, we also note that the share price for 30 days prior to the announcement had declined to 1.4 cents.

  4. As noted, the price increased to around 2.3 cents in the recent days following the announcement. As we think the share price may have been influenced by the announcements of the proposal(s), including unusual levels of trading on 10 Sep 2025 of 35m Shares at 2.2 cents. We also calculated the VWAP of 1.4 cents for the 30 days prior to the 8 May 2025 announcement. The volume traded was 0.11% of the total Shares.

  5. The table shows that the number of shares traded over the past year was 12% of the total shares on issue (average Shares over the period), or $0.8m vs a market capitalisation of $21.8m.

  6. In the trading period 30 days and 3 months prior to the 8 May 2025 announcement of the Proposal, the annualised trading was less than 10% of the total Shares. We generally consider there is an active and deeply liquid market when there is more than 15% of security turnover in a year, refer Appendix 5.

  7. For this reason, we place low reliance on the VWAP prices calculated and do not think they can be used as a reasonable guide to Company Pre Proposal(s) value.

  8. We observe that there is improved liquidity recently, post announcements of the Proposals and consider this in our reasonableness assessment.

  1. Industry key trends and participants:

Online Education

Key Takeaways

  • COVID-19 accelerated online education growth, supported by government funding and social distancing measures. Despite fewer international students, the industry remained resilient.

  • Demand has surged among remote learners and working professionals, with providers forming strategic partnerships to expand reach and credibility.

  • Online undergraduate courses have gained popularity, particularly among recent high school graduates across various disciplines.

  • Professionals aged 25–39 are increasingly enrolling in online programs due to their flexibility, enabling study alongside work and family commitments.

  • The industry is subject to a high level of regulation, similar to traditional education providers. Non-formal education attracts the least amount of regulation, avoiding the monitoring by organisations like TEQSA and ASQA.

Software publishing

Key Takeaways

  • Local Adaptation Advantage: Australian software publishers face strong global competition but succeed by catering to local needs like accounting and logistics, creating profitable niches.

  • SaaS-Driven Growth: The shift to SaaS, exemplified by Atlassian, has supported sector resilience and expansion.

  • Cloud Accounting Surge: Cloud-based accounting solutions tailored to Australian tax and reporting standards have boosted market share and industry performance.

  • Business Demand & Investment: Business clients drive demand, with frequent software updates and rising capital expenditure on software presenting growth opportunities.

  • Regulatory Impact: Compliance with General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and scrutiny from the ACCC’s Digital Platform Services Inquiry require high data protection standards and may reshape industry practices.

Online Education

Software publishing

  • Federal Government policies have dictated enrolment activity among online education channels

  • In early 2024, the government tightened student visa rules effective 1 July, increasing English proficiency and savings requirements. These changes have reduced international student numbers, impacting demand for both inperson and online education.

There were no major participants identified with greater than 5% market share. Other participants include:

Major participants:

  • Atlassian

  • Wisetech Global

  • Charles Sturt University.

    • MYOB
  • Swinburne University of Technology (as Open Universities Australia / Online • Xero Education Services).

  • Kaplan Education Pty Limited.

  • We acknowledge that much of the IBISWorld reporting relates to either education course providers (as opposed to an education platform) or large mature SaaS businesses outside of the education sector.

5.2. Industry remarks

  1. Given the above, we observe that the macro conditions for SaaS online education are positive. However, OLL’s early stage of development may lead to above or below industry average performance depending upon specific critical success factors.

  2. Our valuation and assessment of the Proposal(s) do not greatly depend on any further industry analysis.

6.0 VALUATION METHODOLOGIES

6.1. Available methodologies

  1. The following summarises the various methodologies we have considered:

  2. Market Based: Business value or equity or an asset is determined by reference to comparable market buy/sell transactions or quoted market prices ( QMP ) if it is listed on an exchange or recent transactions.

  3. Income Based: Value is determined by reference to capitalised future maintainable earnings or revenue ( CFME / CFMR ) or discounted cash flows ( DCF ) derived by the business or asset.

  4. Asset Based : Value is determined by reference to the sale or realisable proceeds of individual assets or groups of assets in an entity.

  5. We provide more details of the available valuation methodologies in Appendix 2 of this Report.

6.2. Selected methodology for Company

Market Based Value

  1. The Company is publicly listed with a current share price of ~ 4.0[8] cents and a market capitalisation of $21.7m. For the reasons set out in Section 4.6, we think there is not a deeply liquid and active market for the Shares Pre Proposal(s). Therefore, we think it is not appropriate to use a market-based value for OLL.

  2. We have considered other market comparables (if possible) in our other valuation techniques. The presence of both comparable company and comparable deal evidence suggests that there is a takeover market for companies engaged in similar activities to OLL.

Income Based Value

  1. OLL is an operating business with positive revenue, but negative EBITDA and cash flows.

  2. Given a lack of positive earnings historically or in the near term a CFME method is not possible. We therefore adopted a CFMR technique.

  3. Whilst our preference is often for a DCF, in our view there are no reliable forecasts available from management on which to reasonably determine a value. We think CY26 and any projection beyond would contain assumptions that are considered hypothetical in the context of RG 170. We do not mean this as a pejorative statement on the prospects of the business, but simply a reflection of the regulatory guidance we are obliged to follow.

Asset Based Value

  1. OLL’s book value of net operating assets is largely comprised of cash, NWC and capitalised development at cost. We think the value of OLL is more likely to be based upon the revenue, income and cashflows it generates, rather than the historical values of its assets. Therefore, we do not think a net assets approach is appropriate.

  2. For the above reasons, we adopted the CFMR income-based method.

7.0 PRE PROPOSAL VALUE

7.1. CFMR method

  1. We have assessed the equity value of OLL using CFMR income method including a control premium as set out in the following table:

Table 6: CFMR control value Pre Proposal

CFMR Equity value (100% control value) 1,335 2,248

Total Revenue

  1. This is taken from Table 2, being total revenue excluding the discontinued Program Delivery operation revenue. We adopt historical adjusted total revenue (as opposed to just annualised recurring revenue ARR ) to be consistent with available comparable market multiples.

Normalised maintainable revenue

  1. We have estimated this based upon:

  2. A simple average, which produces a lower range value.

  3. A weighted average which produces a higher range value. Our weightings are biased towards H1CY25 to better reflect the current business strategy and growth in ARR. On 27 Oct 2025, ECA reported Q3CY25 annualised revenue of $2.8m.

  4. This results in a future maintainable revenue range of ~ $2.4m to $2.8m, more in line with the H1 CY25 of $2.7m and Q3CY25ARR of $2.8m.

Market multiples

  1. Our estimate of the revenue multiple is taken from our comparable company and comparable deal data set out in Appendix 6 .

  2. The comparable company data sourced from S&PCapIQ is based on major exchange public listed companies that provide online education services or software related to the education sector. Where possible we filtered to exclude course content providers as opposed to platform providers (like OLL). The liquid minority revenue multiple ranges 0.6x to 4.8x with an average of 2.3x. This is almost 30% lower than the liquid minority revenue multiple one year ago, which ranged from 0.5x to 9.0x, with an average of 3.1x.

  3. Comparable company deals sourced from Mergermarket. We assume the deal data is based upon control transactions. Revenue multiple ranges are from 0.7x to 22.3x with an average of 5.1x. The high value was for “A Cloud Guru” and was a large transaction in mid-2021, which we consider an outlier. Furthermore, in Appendix 6 , we show evidence of more recent transactions in the sector and believe that the presence of more recent deals supports there is an ongoing market for education platform businesses.

Premium for control

  1. A premium for control can be defined as an amount or a percentage by which the pro-rata value of a controlling interest exceeds the pro-rata value of a non-controlling interest in a business enterprise, to reflect the power of control. The requirement for an explicit valuation adjustment for a control premium depends on the valuation purpose, methodology and approach adopted.

  2. An Australian empirical study[9] calculated observed premiums paid in takeovers to be in the order of 22%-35% over the long run. However takeover premiums in any period were volatile depending on the sectors involved and the economic cycle. This is based upon successful takeover offers and schemes of arrangement completed between 2005 and 2020 for companies listed on the ASX. Another study of ASX takeover data from 2015 to 2024[10] showed median acquisition premiums of 36% but ranging from 15% to 60% by industry.

  3. We have also considered other empirical control premium studies and authorities[11] that consider international markets. KPMG’s 2019 valuation practices survey (not an empirical study) notes premiums for control adopted in the range of 14-34%.

  4. Given the circumstances of partial rather than absolute control, we adjust the average comparable company multiple above for a 25% control premium. No control premium adjustment is required for deal comparables as we assume the deals were control transactions.

  5. Specific risk discount

  6. Many of the comparable companies and comparable deals are larger or more diversified than OLL (see ranking table in Appendix 6 ). We also think the near-term losses and likelihood of the Company requiring further funding is a significant specific risk. We have therefore applied a specific risk discount of 50%.

Multiple conclusion

  1. We estimate a revenue multiple applicable to OLL range of 1.3x to 1.5x. This is based on the notable decline in valuation multiples observed over the last 12-24 months (see Appendix 6, including Chart on IDP Education),

Equity adjustments

  1. As set out in Section 4.5, we deduct the current level (including accrued interest and post 30 Jun 2025 $1.0m draw down) of borrowings payable to ECA to calculate equity value.

  2. Whilst due to operating losses we do not regard cash as a surplus asset available for distribution to Shareholders or to repay debt; we add the Tranche 1 Placement of $1.4m. This is for consistency with the number of Shares in the denominator and given the cash was raised recently and likely not yet expended.

  3. Our equity value ranges from a low of $1.3m to $2.2m equity value on a control basis.

Pre Proposal value

  1. The Pre Proposal value on a control basis is taken from Table 7 above.

Debt conversion & costs

  1. We add back to equity the current amount and expected amount including accrued interest of $3.1m of the ECA debt to be converted under the Proposal taken from Section 2.

  2. We have deducted a modest estimate of ‘avoidable’ transaction costs that may be incurred only if the Proposal proceeds. We disregard costs that are incurred regardless of whether the Proposal proceeds or not.

  3. This results in the Post Proposal equity value on a control basis.

Minority discount

  1. We then deduct a minority discount based upon the inverse of the control premium applied above per paragraph 118.

  2. This results in the Post Proposal equity value on a minority basis ranging from $3.5m to $4.3m. We observe that this range is significantly lower than the current market capitalisation of $20.8m – note our reservations of the share price per paragraph 85 as a guide to value.

Per Share values

  1. We divide the Post Proposal equity value on a minority basis by the total number of 721.6m Shares Post Proposal taken from Table 2. This is based upon the current number of Shares of 544.2m plus the 177.5m shares to be issued to ECA under the Proposal debt conversion.

  2. This results in 0.5 to 0.6 cents per Share (rounded) on a minority basis.

Pre Proposal value

  1. The Pre Proposal value on a control basis is taken from Table 7 above.

Proceeds from Placement (Tranche 2) & costs

  1. We add back the proceeds from the Placement of $1.3m under the Proposal taken from Section 2.

  2. We have deducted an estimate of ‘avoidable’ transaction costs payable to the corporate advisor that may be incurred only if the Proposal proceeds. We disregard costs that are incurred regardless of whether the Proposal proceeds or not.

  3. This results in the Post Proposal equity value on a control basis.

Minority discount

  1. We then deduct a minority discount based upon the inverse of the control premium applied above per paragraph 118.

  2. This results in the Post Proposal equity value on a minority basis ranging from $2.0m to $2.7m. We observe that this range is significantly lower than the current market capitalisation of $20.8m – note our reservations of the share price per paragraph 85 as a guide to value.

Per Share values

  1. We divide the Post Proposal equity value on a minority basis by the total number of 721.6m Shares Post Proposal taken from Table 2. This is based upon the current number of Shares of 544.2m plus the 56.8m shares to be issued to ECA under the Proposal debt conversion.

  2. This results in 0.3 to 0.4 cents per Share (rounded) on a minority basis

Fairness opinion

  1. As the Post Proposal(s) minority Share values are greater than (or equal to) the Pre Proposal control Share value at all ranges for Resolutions 1 or 2 and when taken together, in our opinion both Proposal(s) are Fair .

  1. In our opinion the position of OLL Shareholders is more advantageous Post Proposal(s) than Pre Proposal and therefore the Proposal(s) are reasonable to OLL Non-Associated Shareholders. We are mostly persuaded by the better overall prospects for OLL if the debt conversion and / or Tranche 2 Placement proceeds than what may occur if it does not.

9.3. Summary of Opinion

  1. On the balance of the above matters considered, we think that both Proposal(s) are Fair and Reasonable to the Non-Associated shareholders of OLL.

APPENDIX 2 – OVERVIEW OF VALUATION METHODOLOGIES AND PRINCIPLES

Type Method Description When method used
Income Approaches Discounted Cash Flow The Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) method derives the value of a
business on a controlling basis based on the future cash flows of the
business discounted back to a present value at an appropriate discount
rate (cost of capital). The discount rate used will reflect the time value
of money and the risks associated with the cash flows.
The DCF Method requires:

Forecasting cash flows over a sufficiently long period (at least
5 years and usually 10 years)

Assessing an appropriate discount rate (typically derived
using judgment and aids such as the Capital Asset Pricing
Model (CAPM)). The cost of equity (Ke) can be built up from
first principles or benchmarked against comparable
companies (“Co-Co”) or transactions (“Co-Tran”), and

Estimation of the terminal value (value of the business into
perpetuity) at the end of the period (typically derived using the
capitalisation of earnings method).
Reasonably accurate forecast cash flows (minimum 5
years).
Earnings or cash flows expected to fluctuate from year to
year.
Business is in start-up or turn around phase.
Specific projects that have a finite or infinite life, for example,
mining projects.
Capitalisation of
Maintainable Earnings
The Capitalisation of Maintainable Earnings (CME) method is the most
used valuation method. It involves the application of a capitalisation
multiple to an estimate of the Future Maintainable Earnings (FME) of
the business. The FME must be maintainable by the business and
must not include one-off gains or losses. The capitalisation multiple
will reflect the risk, time value of money and future growth prospects of
the business.
The appropriate capitalisation multiple is determined with reference to
the observed multiples of entities whose businesses are comparable
(“Co-Co”) to that of the business being considered and/or comparable
transactions, (“Co-Tran”).
The business has a history of profits with a reasonably
consistent trend and that trend is expected to continue.
The business has an indefinite life.
Cash flow forecasts are not available.

Page | 39

Type Method Description When method used
Capitalisation of
Dividends
This method involves the capitalisation of forecast future maintainable
dividends. The maintainable level of dividends is estimated by
assessing the expected level of future maintainable earnings and the
dividend policy of the entity. The appropriate capitalisation rate reflects
the investor’s required rate of return.
Valuation is for a minority interest.
Stable business.
High payout ratios.
Yield Based This method is primarily used for property assets and involves
capitalising forecast distributions by an estimated future maintainable
yield. The yield or rate is determined based on analysis of comparable
entities.
Commercial or investment properties including retail,
industrial and commercial.
Market Approach Market This method values a Group bases on the traded prices of its equity on
a public market/exchange. The approach can adopt the prevailing spot
rate of the entity’s securities at valuation date, or the Volume Weighted
Average Price (VWAP over a set trading period i.e., the preceding 30,
60 or 90 trading days to the valuation date).
In the absence of market data specific to the entity, the market
approach can also be used by examining market values for
comparable companies (“Co-Co”) or comparable transactions (“Co-
trans”).
Comparable transactions may be observed as being based upon a
widely used industry practice such as a multiple of revenue instead of
earnings.
Group’s equity is listed on public market/exchange i.e., ASX.
Securities in the entity are actively traded on the
market/exchange.
As above for comparable companies or transactions
Asset Approach Asset Based Asset based valuation involve separating the business into
components that can be readily sold, such as individual business
Shares or items of plant and equipment and ascribing a value of each
component based on the amount that could be obtained if sold.
The asset value can be determined based on:

Orderly realisation

Liquidation

Going concern
Asset rich entities
For wind-up or realisation value

Page | 40

Type Method Description When method used
Asset Approach Cost approach The value of an asset determined by:

Reproduction cost less depreciation (in basic terms, the cost
of replicating functionality).

Reproduction cost (in basic terms, the cost of recreating the
asset).
The cost-based approach can be used to derive market
value where market or income factors are difficult to obtain
or estimate with reliability (for example, for some intangible
assets).

Valuation Principles

==> picture [344 x 193] intentionally omitted <==

In adopting an income approach, a multiple of EBITDA or a DCF of cash flows is typically used to determine Total Enterprise Value (TEV), which represents the total value of the net business assets. Any excess over tangible and identified intangible assets (moving right in the diagram above) represents goodwill.

Moving left in the diagram, adjustments are made to TEV to add surplus assets (e.g., cash) and deduct debt to determine equity value. Surplus assets are any assets that are not required to generate the business’s earnings or cash flows.

Further discounts may be applied to equity to determine a minority or illiquid value .

  1. Comparing the current data with values from 12 and 24 months earlier, we observe a notable decrease in average valuation multiples, although the median remains consistent. Therefore, we utilise median values for our calculations. For example, if we compare the 1.4x average revenue multiple from above to public comparables values:

  2. 12 months prior to the announcement, the discounted average revenue multiples were 1.9x, and discounted median multiples were 1.2x.

  3. 24 months prior to the announcement, the discounted average revenue multiples were 1.8x, and discounted median multiples were 1.2x.

  1. The chart below further demonstrates how one of the industry’s prominent player’s (IDP) share price and revenue multiple (TEV/Revenue) have declined over the last three years, we think reflecting changes in the business environment due to policy uncertainties and decreased student volumes. This supports our observation of declining multiples in the industry.
