EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

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 which are the subject of the business of the Meeting.

ASX takes no responsibility for the contents of this Notice.

1. BACKGROUND TO DISPOSAL OF THE MAIN UNDERTAKING

1.1 Transaction overview

As announced on 15 July, the Company has entered into a binding share purchase agreement with Reefton Acquisition Corp. ( Definitive Agreement ), a wholly owned subsidiary of TSX-V listed, Rua Gold Inc. ( Rua ), for the sale of 100% of the capital of Reefton Resources Pty Ltd. ( Reefton Resources ), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ( Transaction ). Reefton Resources owns a 100% interest in the tenements comprising the Reefton gold project located in the South Island of New Zealand ( Reefton Project ).

Rua (TSX-V: RUA, OTC: NZAUF, WKN: H8E) is a new entrant to the mining industry, specialising in gold exploration and discovery in New Zealand, with two highly prospective land packages that have a rich history dating back to the gold rush in the late 1800’s. For further information with respect to Rua, please refer to the Company’s announcement and accompanying presentation released to the ASX on 15 July 2024.

In consideration for the Transaction, the Company will receive the following:

  • (a) a cash payment of $2.0 million (subject to a working capital adjustment), of which $1.0 million was received from Rua upon entering into the Definitive Agreement in the form of a forgivable loan evidenced by a secured promissory note issued by the Company ( Loan ), and the additional $1.0 million will be payable at the completion of the Transaction ( Closing Date ). The Loan is subject to interest at 9.75% per annum (commencing on the date of termination of Definitive Agreement, if applicable) and shall be due and payable on the later of: (i) 30 days following the termination of the Definitive Agreement without consummation, and (ii) 12 months following the execution date of the Definitive Agreement. The Loan is secured through a lien and security interest in the Reefton Project. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Loan shall be forgiven upon the successful completion of the Transaction; and

  • (b) an issuance of 83,927,383 fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of Rua ( RUA Shares ) on completion of the Transaction, having an aggregate value of $18.0 million ( Consideration Shares ), at a deemed price of C$0.1983 per Rua Share, which is based on the volume weighted average price of Canadian trading of RUA Shares over the 30 trading days prior to the date of the Definitive Agreement.

The balance of the material terms and conditions of the Definitive Agreement are set out in Schedule 1 to this Notice.

ASX have advised the Company that the divestment of the Reefton Project via the sale of 100% of the issued share capital of Reefton Resources constitutes a disposal of the Company’s main undertaking for the purposes of Listing Rule 11.2 ( Transaction ).

4

Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder approval for the Transaction in accordance with Listing Rule 11.2 and, more generally, to provide Shareholders with an opportunity to vote in favour or against the Transaction.

Shareholders should refer to Section 2.2 for a summary of Listing Rule 11.2 and the implications for the Company if Shareholder approval for the Transaction is not obtained.

1.2 General background to the Company and rationale for Transaction

The Company is an Australian public company, which was incorporated 19 May 2017 and listed on the ASX on 5 October 2020. Reefton Resources is a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and is the legal and beneficial owner of the tenements comprising the Reefton Project. Further details of the Company’s recent activities involving the Reefton Project and other business operations are available on the Company’s ASX platform (ASX:SNG).

The Company’s vision for the Reefton region has been to create a significant high grade gold producer with a central processing facility fed by numerous underground mines across the historical field. The Transaction is a significant step in realising this vision and represents a positive outcome for the Company’s Shareholders.

The Transaction, expected to be completed in November 2024, provides the Company with an immediate cash injection of $2 million, together with ~$18 million in RUA Shares. Following completion of the Transaction, the Company would own approximately 26% of the issued share capital of RUA.

The Transaction eliminates the need for a potentially dilutive near-term equity raising to continue exploration at the Reefton Project, while enabling Shareholders to retain continued exposure to the upside of the expansion and future development of the Reefton Project.

Combining properties and exploration activities in the Reefton Goldfield provides a number of strategic benefits, including:

  • (a) consolidation of the tenement package, creating the dominant Reefton Goldfield explorer;

  • (b) significant project synergies for mine development and a central processing hub;

  • (c) larger exploration programs with more consistent news flow;

  • (d) combines mine permitting and expedites eventual project construction;

  • (e) RUA best positioned to further consolidate the Reefton Goldfield while Siren retains upside in exploration and development of a consolidated Reefton; and

  • (f) Siren will be able to focus on exploration and development at its Sams Creek Project. By disposing of the Reefton Project, the Company will generate cash flow for distribution towards fast tracking resource growth at the Sams Creek Project.

Following completion of the Transaction, Siren’s principal project will be its interest in the Sams Creek Project, which was acquired by the Company on 26 October 2022. The Sams Creek Project is located 140kms northeast of the Reefton Project

5

and comprises two exploration tenements: EP 54454, which covers 1,052.3ha and is 100% held by Sams Creek Gold Limited ( SCGL ), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and EP 40338, which covers 3,046.5ha and is 81.9% held by SCGL under a joint-venture agreement with New Zealand’s largest gold miner, OceanaGold (TSX:OGC), which owns the remaining 18.1% interest. The Sams Creek mineral resource estimate was completed in November 2022, and currently stands at 824koz @ 2.80g/t Au estimated at a 1.5g/t cut-off (see ASX Announcement dated 17 November 2022 and ASX Announcement dated 30 January 2023).

Siren believes there is significant potential at Sams Creek for a multi-million-ounce project and a large underground mining operation.

For further information with respect the Transaction, please refer to the Company’s announcement and accompanying presentation released to the ASX on 15 July 2024.

1.3

Reefton Project

The Reefton Project is located within the Reefton Goldfield on the South Island of New Zealand. The Reefton Goldfield has been explored and mined for both hard rock and alluvial gold since the first discovery of gold in 1870 and most recently at the Globe-Progress Mine held by OceanaGold Limited. Total recorded historical quartz lode production in the Reefton Goldfield to 1954 was approximately 2 million ounces of gold. The project comprises an 821km[2 ] tenement package across the Reefton Goldfield and has a Mineral Resource of 444koz @ 3.8g/t Au with 8.7kt @1.5% Sb (refer to ASX announcement of 21 August 2023).

For further information with respect to the Reefton Project, please refer to the Company’s ASX platform (ASX:SNG), specifically the ASX Announcements dated 25 July 2024, 15 July 2024 together with the Company’s quarterly, half year and annual reports. The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in its previous announcements with respect to the Reefton Project.

1.4 Financial effect, advantages and disadvantages of the Transaction

1.4.1

Financial effect and use of proceeds

The financial impact of the Transaction on the Company is set out in the pro forma balance sheet contained in Schedule 2.

The proceeds from the Transaction (net of costs) will be applied to exploration at the Sams Creek Project, corporate/administrative costs, creditors and general working capital.

1.4.2 Advantages

The Directors believe that the Transaction is in the best interests of Shareholders and the Company collectively and the following non-exhaustive list of advantages may be relevant to a Shareholder’s decision on how to vote on the Transaction:

  • (a) combining properties and exploration activities in the Reefton Goldfield provides a number of strategic benefits, as outlined in section 1.2 above;

  • (b) significant capital expenditure will be required to undertake commercial scale production of on the Reefton Project. The Transaction eliminates the need for a potentially dilutive near-term equity raising to continue

6

exploration at the Reefton Project, while enabling Shareholders to retain continued exposure to the upside of the expansion and future development of the Reefton Project;

  • (c) by disposing of the Reefton Project, the Company will generate cash flow for distribution towards fast tracking resource growth at the Sam’s Creek Project the Company will be able to focus on its strategies to find better opportunities for growth for Shareholders; and

  • (d) following completion of the Transaction, the nature of the Company’s activities will remain unchanged (i.e. a gold and antimony exploration company with its primary assets in New Zealand).

1.4.3 Disadvantages

The Directors believe that the following non-exhaustive list of disadvantages may be relevant to a Shareholder’s decision on how to vote on the Transaction:

  • (a) the Company will be disposing of its main undertaking in the Reefton Project, which may not be consistent with the investment objectives of all Shareholders;

  • (b) the size of the Company’s tangible asset base and operating activities will be reduced significantly as a result of the Transaction;

  • (c) potential operating revenue attributable to the Reefton Project will not be able to be realised by the Company if the Transaction occurs (notwithstanding that significant capital expenditure would be required to undertake commercial scale production); and

  • (d) the Company will not be able to realise any other potential competing bid for the Reefton Project in the event such an offer was to arise following completion of the Transaction.

1.5 The Company's intentions post-settlement

1.5.1 Direction and business model

Following completion of the Transaction, the Company confirms that it intends to:

  • (a) focus on the exploration of the Sams Creek Project. The planned works over the next 6 months include:

  • (i) extending the iconic leach soil survey beyond the main and anvil zone circular structures;

  • (ii) completing a scoping study for a mining permit application at Sams Creek;

  • (iii) testing the Sams Creek core for Rare Earth Elements; and

  • (iv) testing the dyke D3 & D4 targets with diamond drilling, (refer to the Company’s quarterly activities report dated 30 July 2024 for further details); and

  • (b) to investigate and pursue further opportunities that may enhance shareholder value.

7

If the Company is to pursue an opportunity which is deemed to be a significant change in nature and/or scale of the activities of the Company, the Company may then be required to:

  • (a) obtain shareholder consent for the transaction in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2; and/or

  • (b) re-comply with ASX's initial public offering admission criteria outlined in Chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules.

1.5.2 Compliance with Listing Rule 12.1

The Company notes that under Listing Rule 12.1, and as detailed under section 4.7 of ASX Guidance Note 12, an entity’s operations must, in ASX’s opinion, be sufficient to warrant the continued quotation of the entity’s securities and its continued listing. As the Transaction is a disposal of the Company’s main undertaking, the Company must be able to satisfy ASX on an ongoing basis that the level of its operations is sufficient, and its financial condition adequate, to warrant its continued listing and the continued quotation of its securities.

If the Company is unable to do so, or an agreement is made for the sale of the Sams Creek Project, essentially leaving cash as the Company’s only asset, the Company shall have a period of up to six months to identify and make an announcement to acquire a new business.

If the Company is not able to make an announcement of its intention to acquire a new business, within that six-month period, ASX will generally suspend the quotation of its securities at the end of that six-month period. ASX has indicated to the Company that, on the basis of the Company’s proposed activities at the Sams Creek Project, ASX does not currently intend to exercise its discretion to suspend the Company at the end of the six-month period referred to above.

1.5.3

Group structure

Upon completion of the Transaction, the corporate structure of the Company will change to the extent that the Company will no longer own Reefton Resources and the group structure will be as follows:
