E XP L ANAT ORY S T AT E ME NT

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. RESOLUTIONS 1 TO 5 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE OPTIONS TO THE DIRECTORS

1.1 General

As announced on 9 December 2024, the Company proposes to, subject to Shareholder approval, issue:

  • (a) 1,293,300 Options to Mr Andrew Munckton (or their nominee(s)) (being the subject of Resolution 1);

  • (b) 339,700 Options to Ms Kerry Harmanis (or their nominee(s)) (being the subject of Resolution 2);

  • (c) 212,300 Options to Mr Peter Benjamin (or their nominee(s)) (being the subject of Resolution 3);

  • (d) 212,300 Options to Mr Brian Dawes (or their nominee(s)) (being the subject of Resolution 4); and

  • (e) 212,300 Options to Mr Jeremy Kirkwood (or their nominee(s)) (being the subject of Resolution 5).

These Resolutions seek Shareholder approval for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.11 for the issue of an aggregate 2,269,900 Options to Mr Andrew Munckton, Mr Kerry Harmanis, Mr Peter Benjamin, Mr Brian Dawes and Mr Jeremy Kirkwood (or their nominee(s)) on the terms and conditions in Schedule 1. The Options, if issued, will become exercisable 3 years from the date of issue at an exercise price of $0.339, and an expiry date 4 years from the date of issue.

1.2 Director Recommendation

Each Director has a material personal interest in the outcome of these Resolutions on the basis that all of the Directors (or their nominee(s)) are to be issued Securities should these Resolutions be passed. For this reason, the Directors do not believe that it is appropriate to make a recommendation on these Resolutions.

1.3 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act requires that for a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:

  • (a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and

  • (b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,

unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.

The issue constitutes giving a financial benefit and each of the proposed recipients is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director.

As Securities are proposed to be issued to all of the Directors, the Directors are unable to form a quorum to consider whether one of the exceptions set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act applies to the issue. Accordingly, Shareholder approval for the issue is sought in accordance with Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

7

1.4 Listing Rule 10.11

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed company must not issue or agree to issue equity securities to:

  • 10.11.1 a related party;

  • 10.11.2 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the company;

  • 10.11.3 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (10%+) holder in the company and who has nominated a director to the board of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so;

  • 10.11.4 an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3; or

  • 10.11.5 a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders,

unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.

The issue falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.

1.5 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If these Resolutions are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue within one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules). As approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue (because approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11), the issue will not use up any of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.

If these Resolutions are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue. The Company may need to investigate alternative ways to incentivise and reward Directors for their services to ensure that the Company can retain appropriately qualified personnel to advance the Company’s goals and projects.

1.6 Technical Information required by Listing Rule 10.13 and section 219 of the Corporations Act

REQUIRED
INFORMATION
DETAILS
Number of
Securities and
class to be issued
The maximum number of Options to be issued (being the nature
of the financial benefit proposed to be given) is 2,269,900 in
aggregate, which will be allocated are set out above in this
table and in Section 1.1.
Terms of Securities The Options will be issued on the terms and conditions set out in
Schedule 1.
Date(s) on or by
which the
Securities will be
issued
The Company expects to issue the Securities within 5 Business
Days of the Meeting. In any event, the Company will not issue
any Securities later than one month after the date of the Meeting
(or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or
modification of the Listing Rules).
Price or other
consideration the
Company will
receive for the
Securities
The Securities will be issued at a nil issue price.
Purpose of the
issue, including the
intended use of
any funds raised
by the issue
The purpose of the issue is to provide a performance linked
incentive component in the remuneration package for the
proposed recipients to align the interests of the proposed
recipients with those of Shareholders, to motivate and reward the
performance of the proposed recipients in their roles as Directors
and to provide a cost effective way from the Company to
remunerate the proposed recipients, which will allow the
Company to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on its
operations than it would if alternative cash forms of remuneration
were given to the proposed recipients.
Consideration of
type of Security to
be issued
The Company has agreed to issue the Options for the following
reasons:
(a)
the issue of the Options has no immediate dilutionary
impact on Shareholders;
(b)
the deferred taxation benefit which is available to the
proposed recipients in respect of an issue of Options is
also beneficial to the Company as it means the
proposed recipients are not required to immediately sell
the Options to fund a tax liability (as would be the case
in an issue of Shares where the tax liability arises upon
issue of the Shares) and will instead, continue to hold an
interest in the Company;
(c)
the issue is a reasonable and appropriate method to
provide cost effective remuneration as the non-cash
form of this benefit will allow the Company to spend a
greater proportion of its cash reserves on its operations
than it would if alternative cash forms of remuneration
were given to the Directors; and
(d)
it is not considered that there are any significant
opportunity costs to the Company or benefits foregone
by the Company in issuing the Options on the terms
proposed.
Consideration of
quantum of
Securities to be
issued
The number of Securities to be issued has been determined
based upon a consideration of:
(c)
current market standards and/or practices of other ASX
listed companies of a similar size and stage of
development to the Company;

REQUIRED
INFORMATION
DETAILS
(d)
the remuneration of the proposed recipients; and
(e)
incentives to attract and retain the services of the
proposed recipients who have appropriate knowledge
and expertise, while maintaining the Company’s cash
reserves.
The Company does not consider that there are any significant
opportunity costs to the Company or benefits foregone by the
Company in issuing the Securities upon the terms proposed.

recipients for the previous financial year and the proposed total

number of Shares on issue from 188,320,349 (being the total
number of Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice) to
190,590,249 (assuming that no Shares are issued and no other
convertible securities vest or are exercised) with the effect that
the shareholding of existing Shareholders would be diluted by an
aggregate of 1.19%, comprising 0.68% by Mr Munckton, 0.18% by

2. RESOLUTION 6 – REPLACEMENT OF CONSTITUTION

2.1 General

A company may modify or repeal its constitution or a provision of its constitution by special resolution of shareholders.

This Resolution is a special resolution which will enable the Company to repeal its existing Constitution and adopt a new constitution ( Proposed Constitution ) which is of the type required for a listed public company limited by shares updated to ensure it reflects the current provisions of the Corporations Act and Listing Rules.

12

A summary of the proposed material changes is set out in Section 2.2 below.

A copy of the Proposed Constitution is available for review by Shareholders at the Company’s website https://www.talismanmining.com.au/ and at the office of the Company. A copy of the Proposed Constitution can also be sent to Shareholders upon request to the Company Secretary (+61 8 9380 4230). Shareholders are invited to contact the Company if they have any queries or concerns.

2.2 Summary of material proposed changes

Summary of material proposed changes
Employee
incentive
securities plan
(Clause 2.4)
Under the new Division 1A of Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act,
which came into effect on 1 October 2022, offers under an
employee incentive plan that do not require a monetary
payment (e.g., zero exercise price options or performance rights)
can be issued without an issue cap. However, offers requiring a
monetary
payment
(whether
upon
grant
or
upon
exercise/vesting of the awards and issue of the underlying shares)
must be accompanied by an ‘ESS offer document’ and must
comply with an issue cap. The cap is set at 5% under the
Corporations Act unless raised by a company’s constitution. A
company may include a higher issue cap in its constitution to
allow for more than 5% of securities to be issued under the plan.
The Proposed Constitution has set the issue cap at 10%.
Minimum
securities holding
(Clause 3)
Clause 3 of the Constitution outlines how the Company can
manage securityholdings which represent an “unmarketable
parcel” of securities, being a securityholding that is less than $500
based on the closing price of the Company’s securities on ASX as
at the relevant time.
The Proposed Constitution is in line with the requirements for
dealing with “unmarketable parcels” outlined in the Corporations
Act such that where the Company elects to undertake a sale of
unmarketable parcels, the Company is only required to give one
notice to holders of an unmarketable parcel to elect to retain
their securityholding before the unmarketable parcel can be
dealt with by the Company, saving time and administrative costs
incurred by otherwise having to send out additional notices.
Clause 3 of the Proposed Constitution continues to outline in
detail the process that the Company must follow for dealing with
unmarketable parcels.

2.3 Insertion of partial (proportional) takeover provisions

Overview A proportional takeover bid is a takeover bid where the offer
made to each shareholder is only for a proportion of that
shareholder’s shares.
Pursuant to section 648G of the Corporations Act, an entity may
include a provision in its constitution whereby a proportional
takeover bid for shares may only proceed after the bid has been
approved by a meeting of shareholders held in accordance with
the terms set out in the Corporations Act.
In accordance with section 648G(1) of the Corporations Act,
such clause will cease to apply at the end of three years from the
incorporation of the Company, insertion of the clause or renewal
of the clause (as appropriate) unless otherwise specified. When
this clause ceases to apply, the constitution will be modified by
omitting the clause.
A company may renew its proportional takeover approval
provisions in the same manner in which a company can modify its
constitution (i.e., by special resolution of shareholders).

13

This Resolution will enable the Company to modify its Constitution
by re-inserting proportional takeover provisions into the Proposed
Constitution in the form of clause 37.
Effect of proposed
proportional
takeover
provisions
Where offers have been made under a proportional off-market
bid in respect of a class of securities in a company, the
registration of a transfer giving effect to a contract resulting from
the acceptance of an offer made under such a proportional off-
market bid is prohibited unless and until a Resolution to approve
the proportional off-market bid is passed.
Reasons for
proportional
takeover
provisions
A proportional takeover bid may result in control of the Company
changing without Shareholders having the opportunity to dispose
of all their Shares. By making a partial bid, a bidder can obtain
practical control of the Company by acquiring less than a
majority interest. Shareholders are exposed to the risk of being left
as a minority in the Company and the risk of the bidder being
able to acquire control of the Company without payment of an
adequate control premium. These amended provisions allow
Shareholders to decide whether a proportional takeover bid is
acceptable in principle, and assist in ensuring that any partial bid
is appropriately priced.
Knowledge of any
acquisition
proposals
As at the date of this Notice, no Director is aware of any proposal
by any person to acquire, or to increase the extent of, a
substantial interest in the Company.
Potential
advantages and
disadvantages of
proportional
takeover
provisions
The Directors consider that the proportional takeover provisions
have no potential advantages or disadvantages for them and
that they remain free to make a recommendation on whether an
offer under a proportional takeover bid should be accepted.
The potential advantages of the proportional takeover provisions
for Shareholders include:
(a)
the right to decide by majority vote whether an offer
under a proportional takeover bid should proceed;
(b)
assisting in preventing Shareholders from being locked in
as a minority;
(c)
increasing the bargaining power of Shareholders which
may assist in ensuring that any proportional takeover bid
is adequately priced; and
(d)
each individual Shareholder may better assess the likely
outcome of the proportional takeover bid by knowing
the view of the majority of Shareholders which may assist
in deciding whether to accept or reject an offer under
the takeover bid.
The potential disadvantages of the proportional takeover
provisions for Shareholders include:
(a)
proportional takeover bids may be discouraged;
(b)
lost opportunity to sell a portion of their Shares at a
premium; and
(c)
the likelihood of a proportional takeover bid succeeding
may be reduced.
Recommendation
of the Board
The Directors do not believe the potential disadvantages
outweigh the potential advantages of adopting the proportional
takeover provisions and as a result consider that the proportional
takeover provision in the Proposed Constitution is in the interest of
Shareholders and unanimously recommend that Shareholders
vote in favour of this Resolution.

3. RESOLUTION 7 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE SECURITIES TO UNRELATED PARTIES UNDER AN INCENTIVE PLAN

3.1 General

On 22 November 2023, Shareholders approved the adoption of an employee incentive scheme titled “Employee Securities Incentive Plan” ( Plan ), and for a maximum number of 9,832,167 Shares to be issued under the Plan pursuant to Listing Rule Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)). Shareholders approved the Company’s proposed amendments to the Plan at the Company’s Annual General Meeting that was held on 22 November 2024.

The objective of the Plan is to attract, motivate and retain key employees, contractors and other persons who provide services to the Company, and the Company considers that the adoption of the Plan and the future issue of Securities under the Plan will provide these parties with the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company.

As of the date of this Notice, the Company has issued an aggregate of 8,997,200 Securities under the Plan on reliance on Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)). This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval for purposes of Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)) for the issue of a maximum of 20,000,000 further Securities under the Plan.

3.2 Listing Rule 7.1

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.

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.

3.3 Technical Information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to issue Securities under the Plan to eligible participants over a period of 3 years. The issue of any Securities to eligible participants under the Plan (up to the maximum number of Securities stated in Section 3.4 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.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company must seek Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14 in respect of any future issues of Securities under the Plan 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 this Resolution is not passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of Securities under the Plan to eligible participants, but any issues of Securities 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 Securities.

3.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13)

A summary of the material terms of the Plan is set out below.

Eligible Participant Eligible Participantmeans a person that is a ‘primary participant’ (as
that term is defined in Division 1A of Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act)
in relation to the Company or an Associated Body Corporate (as
defined in the Corporations Act) and has been determined by the
Board to be eligible to participate in the Plan from time to time.
Purpose The purpose of the Plan is to:
(a)
assist in the reward, retention and motivation of Eligible
Participants;
(b)
link the reward of Eligible Participants to Shareholder value
creation; and
(c)
align the interests of Eligible Participants with shareholders of
the Group (being the Company and each of its Associated
Bodies Corporate), by providing an opportunity to Eligible
Participants to receive an equity interest in the Company in
the form of Plan Share, Option, Performance Right or other
convertible security (Securities).
Maximum number of
Convertible
Securities
The Company will not make an invitation under the Plan which involves
monetary consideration if the number of Shares that may be issued, or
acquired upon exercise of Convertible Securities offered under an
invitation, when aggregated with the number of Shares issued or that
may be issued as a result of all invitations under the Plan during the 3
year period ending on the day of the invitation, will exceed 5% of the
total number of issued Shares at the date of the invitation (unless the
Constitution specifies a different percentage and subject to any limits
approved by Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b).
The maximum number of equity securities proposed to be issued under
the Plan in reliance on Listing Rule 7.2 (Exemption 13(a)), following
Shareholder approval, is 20,000,000 Securities. It is not envisaged that
the maximum number of Securities will be issued immediately.
Plan administration The Plan will be administered by the Board. The Board may exercise
any power or discretion conferred on it by the Plan rules in its sole and
absolute discretion (except to the extent that it prevents the
Participant relying on the deferred tax concessions under Subdivision
83A-C of the_Income Tax Assessment Act 1997_(Cth)). The Board may
delegate its powers and discretion.
Eligibility, invitation
and application
The Board may from time to time determine that an Eligible Participant
may participate in the Plan and make an invitation to that Eligible
Participant to apply for any (or any combination of) the Securities
provided under the Plan on such terms and conditions as the Board
decides.
On receipt of an invitation, an Eligible Participant may apply for the
Securities the subject of the invitation by sending a completed
application form to the Company. The Board may accept an
application from an Eligible Participant in whole or in part.
If an Eligible Participant is permitted in the invitation, the Eligible
Participant may, by notice in writing to the Board, nominate a party in
whose favour the Eligible Participant wishes to renounce the invitation.
Grant of Securities The Company will, to the extent that it has accepted a duly completed
application, grant the Participant the relevant number and type of
Securities, subject to the terms and conditions set out in the invitation,
the Plan rules and any ancillary documentation required.

does not have any interest (legal, equitable or otherwise) in
any Share the subject of the Convertible Security other than as
expressly set out in the Plan;
(b)
is not entitled to receive notice of, vote at or attend a meeting
of the shareholders of the Company;
(c)
is not entitled to receive any dividends declared by the
Company; and
(d)
is not entitled to participate in any new issue of Shares (see
Adjustment of Convertible Securities section below).
Restrictions on
dealing with
Convertible
Securities
Convertible Securities issued under the Plan cannot be sold, assigned,
transferred, have a security interest granted over or otherwise dealt
with unless in Special Circumstances as defined under the Plan
(including in the case of death or total or permanent disability of the
holder) with the consent of the Board, or if the Board otherwise
approves such a dealing with the convertible securities, in which case
the Convertible Securities may be transferable on terms determined by
the Board.
A holder must not enter into any arrangement for the purpose of
hedging their economic exposure to a Convertible Security that has
been granted to them.
Vesting of
Convertible
Securities
Any vesting conditions applicable to the Convertible Securities will be
described in the invitation. If all the vesting conditions are satisfied
and/or otherwise waived by the Board, a vesting notice will be sent to
the Participant by the Company informing them that the relevant
Convertible Securities have vested. Unless and until the vesting notice is
issued by the Company, the Convertible Securities will not be
considered to have vested. For the avoidance of doubt, if the vesting
conditions relevant to a Convertible Security are not satisfied and/or
otherwise waived by the Board, that security will lapse.
Forfeiture of
Convertible
Securities
Convertible Securities will be forfeited in the following circumstances:
(a)
in the case of unvested Convertible Securities only,
where the holder ceases to be an Eligible Participant (e.g. is no
longer employed or their office or engagement is discontinued
with the Company and any Associated Bodies Corporate (as
defined in the Corporations Act) (theGroup);
(b)
in the case of unvested Convertible only, where a
Participant
acts
fraudulently,
dishonestly,
negligently,
in
contravention of any Group policy or wilfully breaches their
duties to the Group;
(c)
where there is a failure to satisfy the vesting
conditions in accordance with the Plan;
(d)
on the date the Participant becomes insolvent; or
(e)
on the Expiry Date,
subject to the discretion of the Board.
Listing of Convertible
Securities
Convertible Securities granted under the Plan will not be quoted on the
ASX or any other recognised exchange. The Board reserves the right in
its absolute discretion to apply for quotation of Convertible Securities
granted under the Plan on the ASX or any other recognised exchange.

24

Exercise of
Convertible
Securities and
cashless exercise
To exercise a security, the Participant must deliver a signed notice of
exercise and, subject to a cashless exercise (see next paragraph
below), pay the exercise price (if any) to or as directed by the
Company, at any time following vesting of the Convertible Securities (if
subject to vesting conditions) and prior to the expiry date as set out in
the invitation or vesting notice.
An invitation to apply for Convertible Securities may specify that at the
time of exercise of the Convertible Securities, the Participant may elect
not to be required to provide payment of the exercise price for the
number of Convertible Securities specified in a notice of exercise, but
that on exercise of those Convertible Securities the Company will
transfer or issue to the Participant that number of Shares equal in value
to the positive difference between the Market Value of the Shares at
the time of exercise and the exercise price that would otherwise be
payable to exercise those Convertible Securities.
Market Valuemeans, at any given date, the volume weighted
average price per Share traded on the ASX over the 5 trading days
immediately preceding that given date, unless otherwise specified in
an invitation.
Convertible Securities may not be exercised unless and until that
security has vested in accordance with the Plan rules, or such earlier
date as set out in the Plan rules.
Timing of issue of
Shares and
quotation of Shares
on exercise
Within five business days after the issue of a valid notice of exercise by
a Participant, the Company will issue or cause to be transferred to that
Participant the number of Shares to which the Participant is entitled
under the Plan rules and issue a substitute certificate for any remaining
unexercised Convertible Securities held by that Participant.
Restriction periods
and restrictions on
transfer of Shares on
exercise
If the invitation provides that any Shares issued upon the valid exercise
of a Convertible Security are subject to any restrictions as to the
disposal or other dealing by a Participant for a period, the Board may
implement any procedure it deems appropriate to ensure the
compliance by the Participant with this restriction.
Additionally, Shares issued on exercise of the Convertible Securities are
subject to the following restrictions:
(a)
if the Company is required but is unable to give ASX a notice
that complies with section 708A(5)(e) of the Corporations Act,
Shares issued on exercise of the Convertible Securities may not
be traded until 12 months after their issue unless the Company,
at its sole discretion, elects to issue a prospectus pursuant to
section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act;
(b)
all Shares issued on exercise of the Convertible Securities are
subject to restrictions imposed by applicable law on dealing in
Shares by persons who possess material information likely to
affect the value of the Shares and which is not generally
available; and
(c)
all Shares issued on exercise of the Convertible Securities are
subject to the terms of the Company’s Securities Trading Policy.
Rights attaching to
Shares on exercise
All Shares issued upon exercise of Convertible Securities will rank
equally in all respects with the then Shares of the Company.
Change of control If a change of control event occurs (being an event which results in
any person (either alone or together with associates) owning more
than 50% of the Company’s issued capital), unvested Convertible
Securities will vest unless the Board determines in its discretion
otherwise. The Board’s discretion in determining the treatment of any
unvested Convertible Securities on a change of control event is limited
to vestingor varyinganyvestingconditions in respect to the

25

Convertible Securities and does not include a discretion to lapse or
forfeit unvested Convertible Securities for less than fair value.
Participation in
entitlements and
bonus issues
Subject always to the rights under the following two paragraphs,
Participants will not be entitled to participate in new issues of capital
offered to holders of Shares such as bonus issues and entitlement issues.
Adjustment for
bonus issue
If Shares are issued by the Company by way of bonus issue (other than
an issue in lieu of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment), the
Participant is entitled, upon exercise of the Convertible Securities, to
receive an issue of as many additional Shares as would have been
issued to the holder if the holder held Shares equal in number to the
Shares in respect of which the Convertible Securities are exercised.
Reorganisation If there is a reorganisation of the issued share capital of the Company
(including
any
subdivision,
consolidation,
reduction,
return
or
cancellation of such issued capital of the Company), the rights of each
Participant holding Convertible Securities will be changed to the extent
necessary to comply with the ASX Listing Rules applicable to a
reorganisation of capital at the time of the reorganisation.
Buy-Back Subject to applicable law, the Company may at any time buy-back
Securities in accordance with the terms of the Plan.
Employee Share
Trust
The Board may in its sole and absolute discretion use an employee
share trust or other mechanism for the purposes of holding Convertible
Securities for holders under the Plan and delivering Shares on behalf of
holders upon exercise of Convertible Securities.
Amendment of Plan Subject to the following paragraph, the Board may at any time amend
any provisions of the Plan rules, including (without limitation) the terms
and conditions upon which any Securities have been granted under
the Plan and determine that any amendments to the Plan rules be
given retrospective effect, immediate effect or future effect.
No amendment to any provision of the Plan rules may be made if the
amendment materially reduces the rights of any Participant as they
existed before the date of the amendment, other than an amendment
introduced primarily for the purpose of complying with legislation or to
correct manifest error or mistake, amongst other things, or is agreed to
in writing by all Participants.
Plan duration The Plan continues in operation until the Board decides to end it. The
Board may from time to time suspend the operation of the Plan for a
fixed period or indefinitely and may end any suspension. If the Plan is
terminated or suspended for any reason, that termination or suspension
must not prejudice the accrued rights of the Participants.
If a Participant and the Company (acting by the Board) agree in writing
that some or all of the Securities granted to that Participant are to be
cancelled on a specified date or on the occurrence of a particular
event, then those Securities may be cancelled in the manner agreed
between the Company and the Participant.
Income Tax
Assessment Act
The Plan is a plan to which Subdivision 83A-C of the_Income Tax_
Assessment Act 1997(Cth) applies (subject to the conditions in that
Act) except to the extent an invitation provides otherwise.
