EXPLANATORY STATEMEN T
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.
1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND REPORTS
In accordance with the Corporations Act, the business of the Meeting will include receipt and consideration of the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2025 together with the declaration of the Directors, the Directors’ report, the Remuneration Report and the auditor’s report.
The Company will not provide a hard copy of the Company’s annual financial report to Shareholders unless specifically requested to do so. The Company’s annual financial report is available on its website at www.s2resources.com.au .
2. RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT
2.1 General
The Corporations Act requires that at a listed company’s annual general meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted must be put to the shareholders. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the company or the directors of the company.
The remuneration report sets out the company’s remuneration arrangements for the directors and senior management of the company. The remuneration report is part of the directors’ report contained in the annual financial report of the company for a financial year.
The chair of the meeting must allow a reasonable opportunity for its shareholders to ask questions about or make comments on the remuneration report at the annual general meeting.
2.2
Voting consequences
A company is required to put to its shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of another meeting of shareholders to consider the appointment of directors of the company ( Spill Resolution ) if, at consecutive annual general meetings, at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report and at the first of those annual general meetings a Spill Resolution was not put to vote. If required, the Spill Resolution must be put to vote at the second of those annual general meetings.
If more than 50% of votes cast are in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene a shareholder meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting.
All of the directors of the company who were in office when the directors' report (as included in the company’s annual financial report for the most recent financial year) was approved, other than the managing director of the company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting.
Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election as directors of the company is approved will be the directors of the company.
2.3 Previous voting results
At the Company’s previous annual general meeting the votes cast against the remuneration report considered at that annual general meeting were less than
4
25%. Accordingly, the Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Annual General Meeting.
3. RESOLUTION 2 – RE-ELECTION OF MARK BENNETT
3.1 General
ASX Listing Rule 14.4 provides that, other than a managing director, a director of an entity must not hold office (without re-election) past the third AGM following the director’s appointment or 3 years, whichever is the longer. However, where there is more than one managing director, only one is entitled not to be subject to re-election.
Clause 3.6(c) of the Constitution sets out the requirements for determining which Directors are to retire by rotation at an annual general meeting.
Mark Bennett, who has served as a director since 29 May 2015, and was last reelected on 16 November 2022, retires by rotation and seeks re-election.
3.2 Qualifications and other material directorships
Dr Bennett was the managing director and CEO of Sirius Resources NL (“Sirius”) from its inception until its merger with Independence Group NL and was nonexecutive director of Independence Group following the merger until June 2016.
He is a geologist with 30 plus years of experience in gold, nickel and base metal exploration and mining. He holds a BSc in Mining Geology from the University of Leicester and a PhD from the University of Leeds and is a Member of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, a Fellow of the Geological Society of London, a Fellow of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists and a Member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors.
He has worked in Australia, West Africa, Canada, USA and Europe, initially for LionOre Mining International Limited and WMC Resources Limited at various locations including Kalgoorlie, Kambalda, St.Ives, LionOre's nickel and gold mines throughout Western Australia, the East Kimberley, and Stawell in Victoria. His more recent experience, as Managing Director of Sirius, S2 Resources and as a director of private Canadian company True North Nickel, has been predominantly in Western Australia (the Fraser Range including Nova-Bollinger, and the Polar Bear project in the Eastern Goldfields), Quebec (the Raglan West nickel project), British Columbia, Sweden, Finland, and Nevada.
Positions held include various technical, operational, executive and board positions including Executive Chairman, Managing Director, Chief Executive Officer, Executive Director, Non-Executive Director, Exploration Manager and Chief Geologist.
Dr Bennett is a two times winner of the Association of Mining and Exploration Companies "Prospector Award" for his discoveries which include the Thunderbox gold mine, the Waterloo nickel mine and more recently the world class NovaBollinger nickel-copper mine.
In addition to his technical expertise, Dr Bennett is very experienced in corporate affairs, equity capital markets, investor relations and community engagement and led Sirius from prior to the discovery of Nova through feasibility, financing, permitting and construction, and through the schemes of arrangement to merge with Independence and to demerge S2.
Dr Bennett is the Chairman of ASX listed Falcon Metals Limited (since 30 September 2021) and a director of TSX-V listed Valkea Resources Limited (since 18 September 2024).
5
If elected, the board does not consider Mark Bennett to be an independet director.
3.3 Board recommendation
The Board has reviewed Dr Bennett’s performance since his appointment to the Board and considers that Dr Bennett’s skills and experience will continue to enhance the Board’s ability to perform its role. Accordingly, the Board supports the re-election of Mark Bennett and recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.
4. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL OF EMPLOYEE SHARE OPTION PLAN
4.1 General
Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval of the employee incentive scheme titled Employee Incentive Plan ( EIP ) and for the issue of Options under the EIP in accordance with Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)).
The objective of the EIP is to attract, motivate and retain key employees and the Company considers that the adoption of the EIP and the future issue of Options under the EIP will provide recipients the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company.
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 shares it had on issue at the start of that period.
Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)) provides that Listing Rule 7.1 does not apply to an issue of securities under an employee incentive scheme if, within three years before the date of issue of the securities, the holders of the entity’s ordinary securities have approved the issue of equity securities under the scheme as exception to Listing Rule 7.1. The Company last received Shareholder approval for the existing Employee Incentive Plan at the 2022 AGM on 16 November 2022.
Exception 13(b) is only available if and to the extent that the number of equity securities issued under the scheme does not exceed the maximum number set out in the entity’s notice of meeting dispatched to shareholders in respect of the meeting at which shareholder approval was obtained pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b). Exception 13(b) also ceases to be available if there is a material change to the terms of the scheme from those set out in the notice of meeting.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Company must seek Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14 in respect of any future issues of Options under the EIP to a related party or a person whose relationship with the Company or the related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained.
If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Options under the EIP to eligible participants over a period of 3 years. The issue of any Options to eligible participants under the EIP (up to the maximum number of Options stated in Section 5.3(c) below) 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 3 is not passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of Options under the EIP to eligible participants, but any issues of Options will reduce, to that extent, the Company’s capacity to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the issue of the Options.
6
4.2 Existing Plan
The Company has an existing Plan, for which Shareholder approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.2 was obtained at the Company’s Annual General Meeting held in November 2022, and was due for approval for a further 3 years. The Board approved some immaterial changes to the Plan in 2023, to ensure its compliance with the changes to the employee incentive schemes regime, where amendments to the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) replaced the then existing regime for employee incentive schemes that were provided under ASIC Class Orders [CO 14/1000] and [14/1001].
4.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13)
Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13), the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 3:
-
(a) a summary of the key terms and conditions of the EIP is set out in Schedule 1;
-
(b) the Company has issued 10,900,000 Options under the EIP since the EIP was last approved by Shareholders on 16 November 2022; and
-
(c) the maximum number of Securities proposed to be issued under the EIP, following Shareholder approval, is 25,073,452 Options being 5% of the share capital of the Company over the 3 years that the Plan is approved for. It is not envisaged that the maximum number of Securities for which approval is sought will be issued immediately.
5. RESOLUTION 4 – APPROVAL OF 7.1A MANDATE
5.1 General
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 period.
However, under Listing Rule 7.1A, an eligible entity may seek shareholder approval by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25% ( 7.1A Mandate ).
An ‘eligible entity’ means an entity which is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300,000,000 or less. The Company is an eligible entity for these purposes.
As at the date of this Notice, the Company is an eligible entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a current market capitalisation of $55,161,594 (based on the number of Shares on issue and the closing price of Shares of $0.11 on the ASX on 8 October 2025).
Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval by way of special resolution for the Company to have the additional 10% placement capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval.
If Resolution 4 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities up to the combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without any further Shareholder approval.
If Resolution 4 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the additional 10% capacity to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A, and will remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing Equity Securities without Shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.
7
5.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.1A
Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to Resolution 4:
(a) Period for which the 7.1A Mandate is valid
The 7.1A Mandate will commence on the date of the Meeting and expire on the first to occur of the following:
-
(i) the date that is 12 months after the date of this Meeting;
-
(ii) the time and date of the Company’s next annual general meeting; and
-
(iii) the time and date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change in the nature or scale of activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of the main undertaking).
(b) Minimum price
Any Equity Securities issued under the 7.1A Mandate must be in an existing quoted class of Equity Securities and issued for a cash consideration per security and be issued at a minimum price of 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:
-
(i) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed by the entity and the recipient of the Equity Securities; or
-
(ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 trading days of the date in Section 5.2(b)(i), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
(c) Risk of Economic and Voting Dilution
Any issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue.
If Resolution 4 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 7.1A Mandate, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below.
The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in Listing Rule 7.1A.2, on the basis of the closing market price of Shares and the number of Equity Securities on issue or proposed to be issued as at 8 October 2025.
The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 7.1A Mandate.

1,002,938,078 | 100,293,808 | $5,516,159 | $11,032,319 | $16,548,478 |
*The number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a prorata rights issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
The table above uses the following assumptions:
-
There are currently 501,469,039 Shares on issue.
-
The issue price set out above is the closing market price of the Shares on the ASX on 8 October 2025 being $0.11.
-
The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate.
-
The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
-
The issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate consists only of Shares. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities. If the issue of Equity Securities includes quoted Options, it is assumed that those quoted Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.
-
The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.
-
This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under Listing Rule 7.1 unless otherwise disclosed.
-
The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.
-
The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 7.1A Mandate, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.
Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:
(i) the market price for the Company’s Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and
- (ii) the Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Shares on the date of issue.
(d) Use of Funds
The Company intends to use funds raised from issues of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate for the development of the Company’s current business, the continued exploration and development expenditure on the Company’s current assets/or projects, the acquisition of new resources, assets and investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition) and general working capital.
9
(e) Allocation policy under the 7.1A Mandate
The recipients of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 7.1A Mandate have not yet been determined. However, the recipients of Equity Securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company.
The Company will determine the recipients at the time of the issue under the 7.1A Mandate, having regard to the following factors:
-
(i) the purpose of the issue;
-
(ii) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue, share purchase plan, placement or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;
-
(iii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;
-
(iv) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company;
-
(v) prevailing market conditions; and
-
(vi) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).
-
(f) Previous approval under Listing Rule 7.1A
The Company previously obtained approval from its Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 29 November 2024 ( Previous Approval ).
During the 12 month period preceding the date of the Meeting, being on and from 29 November 2024, the Company has made one issue pursuant to the Previous Approval, as detailed in Schedule 1.
5.3 Voting Exclusion Statement
As at the date of this Notice, the Company is not proposing to make an issue of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A. Accordingly, a voting exclusion statement is not included in this Notice.

-

then regardless of whether or not that Relevant Person’s employment or engagement with a Group Company has ceased, the Board may:
-
(e) deem any unvested or vested (but unexercised) Incentives of the Relevant Person to have lapsed;
-
(f) adjust the Relevant Person’s current or future performance-based remuneration; and
-
(g) take any other action the Board considers appropriate including requiring any benefits obtained under the Plan by the Relevant Person or its Nominated Party be returned, repaid or cancelled or alter the outcome on them vesting.

Termination payments
-
(a) If the vesting or exercise of Incentives in accordance with this rule 5 , when aggregated with any other benefits paid or payable to the Relevant Person in connection with the cessation of their employment or engagement with any Group Company:
-
(i) has not been approved by shareholders pursuant to Part 2D.2 of the Corporations Act or under Listing Rule 10.19; or

The lapse of an Incentive is the end of the conditional contract constituted by the Incentive.
6 Allocation of Shares
6.1 Allocation of Shares
-
(a) Subject to rule 6.1(b) , within 10 Business Days after an Incentive under the Plan that is capable of being exercised has been exercised by the Incentiveholder or his or her personal representative, the Company must issue to or procure the transfer (at its election) to the Incentiveholder or his or her personal representative (as the case may be) of the number of Shares in respect of which the Incentive has been exercised (subject to rule 6.2 and any adjustments under rule 8 ).
-
(b) The Company may, in its absolute discretion, pay to the Incentiveholder a cash amount in place of issuing or transferring some or all of the Shares referred to in rule 6.1(a) with the payment to be equivalent to the Market Value of the number of Shares that would otherwise have been issued or transferred on exercise of the Incentive.
-
(c) The issue or transfer of a Share or payment of the cash amount referred to in rule 6.1(b) to the Incentiveholder or his or her personal representative (as the case may be) pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive constitutes performance by the Company of its obligations pursuant to the conditional contract constituted by the Incentive.
6.2 Cashless Exercise Facility
-
(a) If an Incentiveholder wishes to exercise some or all of their vested Options, it may, subject to Board approval (which may be withheld at its absolute discretion), elect to pay the Exercise Price by using the cashless exercise facility provided for under this rule 6.2 ( Cashless Exercise Facility ).
-
(b) The Cashless Exercise Facility allows an Incentiveholder to set-off the Exercise Price against the Market Value of the number of Shares which the Incentiveholder is entitled to receive upon exercise of the Incentiveholder’s vested Options. By using the Cashless Exercise
3453-5393-3093v1
page 12
Facility, the Incentiveholder will receive Shares, or the cash amount pursuant to rule 6.1(b) , to the value of the surplus after the Exercise Price has been set-off.
- (c) If an Incentiveholder elects to use the Cashless Exercise Facility, and its use is approved by the Board in its absolute discretion then, subject always to rule 6.2(d) , the Incentiveholder will be issued or transferred (at the election of the Board) that number of Shares (rounded up or down to the nearest whole number), calculated by using the following formula:
A = (B – C) ÷ D
where:
-
A = the number of Shares to be issued or transferred (at the election of the Board) pursuant to the Cashless Exercise Facility;
-
B = the aggregate total Market Value (as determined on the date the Options the subject of the Cashless Exercise Facility are exercised) of Shares that would otherwise be issued or transferred on exercise of the Options had all such Options been exercised for a cash Exercise Price;
-
C = the aggregate total Exercise Price otherwise payable in respect of the vested Options exercised; and
-
D = the Market Value of a Share as determined on the date the Options the subject of the Cashless Exercise Facility are exercised.
-
(d) If the Board determines to make a cash payment pursuant to rule 6.1(b) instead of issuing or transferring Shares under this rule 6.2 , then the cash amount for purposes of this rule 6.2 will be determined by multiplying the number of Shares determined in accordance with rule 6.2(c) with the Market Value of those Shares determined in accordance with rule 6.2(c) .
-
(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or the Invitation, if the Exercise Price otherwise payable in respect of the Options being exercised is the same or higher than the Market Value of Shares at the time of exercise, then an Incentiveholder will not be entitled to use the Cashless Exercise Facility.

-
(d) If Shares are the subject of Disposal Restrictions and the circumstances in rule 5.2 and/or rule 5.6 apply, then regardless of whether or not that Relevant Person’s employment or engagement with a Group Company has ceased, the Board may:
-
(i) extend the Disposal Restrictions;
-
(ii) adjust the Relevant Person’s current or future performance-based remuneration (including by imposing conditions on when Disposal Restrictions will be lifted); and/or

7 Change of Control Events and winding-up
7.1
Change of Control Event
-
(a) If a matter, event, circumstance or transaction occurs that the Board reasonably believes may lead to a Change of Control Event, the Board may in its absolute discretion determine the treatment and the timing of such treatment of any unvested or unexercised Incentives and must notify the Incentiveholder of any changes to the terms of the Incentives as a result of a decision under this rule 7.1(a) .
-
(b) If a Change of Control Event occurs and the Board hasn’t made a decision under rule 7.1(a) :
-
(i) the Board must (unless any Takeover Bid to which the Change of Control Event relates also includes an equivalent offer to the Incentiveholder to acquire all or a substantial portion of the Incentives) notify the Incentiveholder of the Change of Control Event; and
-
(ii) all of the unvested Incentives automatically vest and are deemed to have been exercised, together with any previously vested but unexercised Incentives, on the occurrence of the Change of Control Event.
7.2 Winding-up and change of main undertaking
The Board may, in its absolute discretion, permit the vesting and exercise of Incentives (irrespective of whether the relevant Vesting Conditions have been met) during such period as the Board determines where:
-
(a) the Company passes a resolution for voluntary winding-up;
-
(b) an order is made for the compulsory winding up of the Company; or
-
(c) the Company passes a resolution in accordance with Listing Rule 11.2 to dispose of its main undertaking.
7.3 Exercise of Incentives
If a company ( Acquiring Company ) obtains control of the Company as a result of:
-
(a) a Takeover Bid;
-
(b) a scheme of arrangement between the Company and its shareholders; or
-
(c) a selective capital reduction,
and both the Company and the Acquiring Company agree, an Incentiveholder may, upon exercise of his or her Incentives, elect to acquire (and the Company may provide) shares of the Acquiring Company (or its parent) in lieu of Shares, on substantially the same terms and subject to substantially the same conditions as the Incentiveholder may exercise Incentives to acquire Shares,
3453-5393-3093v1
page 15
but with appropriate adjustments to the number and kind of shares subject to the Incentives, as well as to the Exercise Price.
8 Bonus issues, pro rata issues and reorganisations
8.1
Application of this rule
This rule 8 applies to Incentiveholders who hold Incentives that they have not yet exercised and which have not lapsed.
8.2
Adjustment for bonus issue
-
(a) If Shares are issued pro rata to the Company’s shareholders generally by way of bonus issue (other than an issue in lieu or in satisfaction of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment), then the number of Shares over which the Incentives are exercisable will be increased by the number of Shares which the Incentiveholder would have received if the Incentiveholder had exercised the Incentives before the record date for the bonus issue. No adjustment will be made to the Exercise Price.
-
(b) Additional Shares to which the Incentiveholder becomes so entitled will, as from the time Shares are issued pursuant to the bonus issue and until those additional Shares are allotted, be regarded as Shares comprised in the relevant Incentives and in respect of which the Incentives are exercised for the purposes of subsequent applications of rule 8.2(a) , and any adjustments which, after the time just mentioned, are made under rule 8.4 to the number of Shares will also be made to the additional Shares.
8.3 Pro rata issue
If Shares are offered pro rata for subscription by the Company’s shareholders (except a bonus issue) during the currency of and prior to exercise of any Incentives, the Exercise Price of each Incentive (if applicable) will be adjusted in the manner determined by the Board and in accordance with the Listing Rules and the general principle that the Incentiveholder is not to be materially disadvantaged as a result of a corporate action (such as a capital raising or capital reconstruction).
8.4 Adjustment for reorganisation
If there is a reorganisation of the issued capital of the Company (including a consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return) then the rights of an Incentiveholder (including the number of Incentives to which each Incentiveholder is entitled and the Exercise Price) will be changed to the extent necessary to comply with the Listing Rules applying to a reorganisation of capital at the time of the reorganisation.
8.5
No other participation
Subject to rules 8.2 , 8.3 and 8.4 , during the currency of any Incentives and prior to their exercise, Incentiveholders are not entitled to participate in any new issue of securities of the Company as a result of their holding Incentives.

11 Miscellaneous
11.1 Compliance with laws

-
(i) no Invitations to apply for Incentives may be made if the Invitation or grant does not comply with; and
-
(ii) no Share may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentives under the Plan if to do so would contravene,

-
(i) every covenant or other provisions set out in an exemption or modification granted from time to time by ASIC in respect of the Plan pursuant to its power to exempt and modify the Corporations Act and required to be included in the Plan in order for that exemption or modification to have full effect, is deemed to be contained in the Plan; and

The Board will continue to administer the Plan during the period of any suspension and after the Plan has been terminated until there are no remaining unexercised Incentives and no Shares subject to Disposal Restrictions.
11.4 Power of the Board
-
(a) The Plan is administered by the Board which has power to:
-
(i) determine appropriate procedures for administration of the Plan consistent with these rules; and

11.5
Waiver of terms and conditions
Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan or an Invitation, the Board may at any time waive in whole or in part any terms or conditions (including

11.7 Non-Australian residents
When an Incentive is granted under the Plan to a person who is not a resident of Australia the provisions of the Plan apply subject to such alterations or additions as the Board determines having regard to any applicable or relevant laws, matters of convenience and desirability and similar factors which may have application to the Incentiveholder or to any Group Company in relation to the Incentive.

(a) Any notice or other communication under or in connection with the Plan may be given by:
