The Company also refers to its previous announcements in relation to the extension of the Offer period dated 11 November 2025, 14 November 2025, 21 November 2025 and 27 November 2025.

Capitalised terms not defined in this announcement have the same meaning given to them in the Bidder’s Statement.

The Offer is now scheduled to close at 7.00pm (AEDT) on 19 December 2025 (unless extended), and as a result the date for EMS providing notice of the status of the defeating conditions of the Offer is now 11 December 2025.

  • (a) return to the offeree any documents that were sent by the offeree to the Bidder with the acceptance of the Offer; and

  • (b) if the offeree’s securities are in a CHESS Holding, Transmit to ASX Settlement a Valid Message that authorises the release of those securities from the Offer Accepted Subposition in which the Holding has been reserved.
