EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of the Shareholders in connection with the business to be conducted at the Extraordinary General Meeting to be held at 11.00am (WST) on 13 March 2024 at Level 2, 40 Kings Park Road, West Perth, Western Australia.
The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions in the Notice of Meeting.
RESOLUTION 1 – RATIFICATION OF 66,666,672 SHARES ISSUED PURSUANT TO SHARE PLACEMENT IN NOVEMBER 2023
On 9 November 2023, the Company announced that it had successfully secured commitments to raise $1m (before costs) through a share placement of 66,666,672 shares at an issue price of $0.015 per share to new and existing institutions and sophisticated investors.
The Shares were issued on 17 November 2023 and consisted of (i) 65,223,258 Shares pursuant to the Company's Listing Rule 7.1 capacity and (ii) 1,443,414 Shares pursuant to the Company Listing Rule 7.1A capacity (together being 66,666,672 shares are the Placement Shares).
Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A
Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the number 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.
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 does not reduce the Company's capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule
Shareholder Approval Sought
The issue of Shares under the Placement does not fit within any of these exceptions and, as it has not yet been approved by the Company's shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 25% limit under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A reducing the Company's capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval.
Under Resolution 1, the Company seeks Shareholder approval for, and ratification of, the Placement Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 to retain as much flexibility as possible (under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A) to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1
If Resolution 1 is passed, the Placement Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company's combined 25% limit under Listing Rule 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 date of the Relevant Share Issue.
If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Relevant Share Issue will be included in calculating the Company's combined 25% limit under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A, and will continue to restrict the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval.
Specific Information required for Listing Rule 7.5
In accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to the approval to ratify the issue of Placement Shares under Resolution 1.
| Listing Rule | Required Disclosure |
|---|---|
| 7.5.1 | The Company issued the Placement Shares to sophisticated and professional investors inAustralia, pursuant to the Placement. The Company confirms that none of the recipients of thePlacement Shares are related to parties of the Company or a material investor for the purposesof section 7.4 of ASX Guidance Note 21. |
| 7.5.2 | The Company issued a total of 66,666,672 Placement Shares under the Placement. |
| 7.5.3 | The Placement Shares issued were fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company thatrank equally with existing Shares on issue. |
| 7.5.4 | The Placement Shares were issued on 17 November 2023. |
| 7.5.5 | The Placement Shares were issued at an issue price of $0.015 per Share, raising a total of $1million (before costs). |

| 7.5.7 | The Placement Shares were not issued under an agreement and there are no further materialterms to disclose in respect of the Placement. |
| 7.5.8 | Please refer to the voting exclusion statements for Resolution 1 set out in the Notice. |
Recommendation
The Board recommends that the Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.
RESOLUTION 2 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE 66,666,672 NEW OPTIONS TO SUBSCRIBERS OF THE SHARE PLACEMENT IN NOVEMBER 2023
Participants in the Placement (detailed in Resolution 1) are also entitled to subscribe for 1 free attaching option on the basis of 1 Placement Option for every 1 new Share issued under the Placement. Each Placement Option will be issued for nil consideration and will be exercisable at 3.5 cents per share (Placement Options).
Subject to receiving Shareholder approval, the Company intends to offer 66,666,672 Placement Options to participants under the Placement under a prospectus.
Listing Rule 7.1
Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the number 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.
The proposed issue of the Placement Options under the Placement (Relevant Options Issue) does not fall within any of these exceptions and exceeds the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 following the issue of Shares under the Placement. It therefore will require the approval of the Company's Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
Resolution 2 seeks approval for the Placement Options Issue under Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolution 2 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the Placement Options Issue and the issue of the Placement Options under the Placement will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolution 2 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the Placement Options Issue.
