  • the proxy need not vote on a show of hands, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed);

  • if the proxy has 2 or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on the Resolution, the proxy must not vote on a show of hands;

3

o the proxy does not vote on the Resolution,

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of Shareholders in relation to the business to be conducted at an Extraordinary General Meeting to be held at Level 14, 60 Martin Place, Sydney NSW 2000 on 20 February 2025, at 10:00am (AEDT).

The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide Shareholders with all information known to the Company which is material to a decision on how to vote on the Resolutions in the accompanying Notice of Meeting.

This Explanatory Statement should be read in conjunction with the Notice of Meeting preceding this Explanatory Statement. Capitalised terms in this Explanatory Statement are defined in the glossary to this document.

ASX takes no responsibility for the contents of the Notice or the Explanatory Statement.

This Explanatory Statement does not take into account any person’s investment objectives, financial situation or particular needs. If you are in any doubt about what to do in relation to the Meeting you should consult your financial or other professional adviser.

1. RESOLUTION 1: RATIFY PRIOR ISSUE OF SHARES TO SOPHISTICATED OR PROFESSIONAL INVESTORS PURSUANT TO PLACEMENT

1.1 Background

As announced on 10 December 2024 the Company completed a placement of 300,000,000 Shares at $0.02 per Share to Sophisticated or Professional Investors to raise $6,000,000 before costs ( Placement ). On 17 December 2024, the Company issued 300,000,000 Shares pursuant to the Placement ( Placement Shares ). All Placement Shares were issued to Sophisticated or Professional Investors.

Placement Shares were issued within the Company's 15% Placement Capacity. Accordingly, the Company is now seeking Shareholder ratification of the issue of Placement Shares for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.4 and for all other purposes.

An explanation of the Company's placement capacity and ASX Listing Rule 7.4 is set out below.

1.2 Approval sought for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.4

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.2, ASX 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 period ( 15% Placement Capacity ).

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 states that where a company's shareholders ratify a prior issue of Securities, issued under that company's 15% Placement Capacity, (provided that previous issue of Securities did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1) those Securities will be deemed to have been issued with shareholder approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1. This has the effect of "refreshing" a company's placement capacity and thereby increasing the number of Securities that may be issued under the Company's 15% Placement Capacity, without Shareholder approval.

Accordingly, if Resolution 1 is passed, the Placement Shares initially issued under the Company's 15% Placement Capacity will no longer be included within the Company's 15% Placement Capacity and this will provide flexibility for the

8

Company to issue future Securities under the Company's 15% Placement Capacity without having to obtain Shareholder approval for some or all of those future issues.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Placement Shares will continue to be included in calculating the Company's 15% Placement Capacity, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue without Shareholder approval.

1.3 Specific information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.4

In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to the Placement Shares:

Person to whom the
Securities were

2.2 Approval sought for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1

The issue of the Joint Lead Manager Options does not fit within any of the exceptions to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and it has not yet been approved by the Company's Shareholders.

If this Resolution is passed, the issue will be excluded from the calculation of the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

If this Resolution is not passed, the issue of the Joint Lead Manager Options will be included in calculating the Company's 15% Placement Capacity, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue without Shareholder approval.

2.4 Board recommendation

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

3. RESOLUTION 3: APPROVAL OF EMPLOYEE INCENTIVE PLAN

3.1 Background

The Company's previous employee share option plan ( Plan ) was last approved by Shareholders at the general meeting of the Company held on 11 January 2021.

The Directors have designed a new employee share incentive plan ( New Plan ) to bring the Plan terms in line with market best practices and provide incentives to the employees and Directors of the Company and to recognise their contribution to the Company’s success. Under the current circumstances the Directors consider that an incentive plan is a cost effective and efficient incentive for the Company as opposed to alternative forms of incentives such as increased cashbased remuneration.

To enable the Company to secure employees and Directors who can assist the Company in achieving its objectives, it is necessary to provide remuneration and incentives to such personnel. The New Plan is designed to achieve this objective by encouraging continued improvement in performance over time and by encouraging personnel to acquire and retain shareholdings in the Company.

As Directors of the Company may receive securities in the Company under the New Plan, prior Shareholder approval will therefore be required before a Director or related party of the Company can participate in an issue of Options under the New Plan.

3.2 Approval sought for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b))

Approval is sought in respect of the adoption of the New Plan under ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)) which provides an exception from the ASX Listing Rule 7.1 15% Placement Capacity on securities issued, under an employee incentive scheme provided, within three years before the date of issue, Shareholders have approved the issue of securities under the New Plan.

11

In the absence of such approval, issues under the New Plan can still occur but will be counted as part of the 15% Placement Capacity which would otherwise apply during a 12 month period.

3.3

Specific information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b))

The following information is provided to Shareholders for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)):

  • (a) Please see Schedule 2 for a summary of key terms of the New Plan;

  • (b) nil Securities have been issued under the New Plan to date;

  • (c) the number of Securities issued involving consideration under the New Plan will not exceed 5% of the issued capital of the Company (on a fully diluted basis); and

  • (d) the current maximum number of Securities to be issued would be 120,117,393.

A voting exclusion statement for Resolution 3 in respect of the New Plan is included in the Notice preceding this Explanatory Statement. A copy of the New Plan is available to Shareholders on written request.

3.4 Board recommendation

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.
