The Company intends that the securities will be quoted on ASX and will apply for quotation within seven days of the Prospectus.

This Prospectus does not purport to contain all the information that you may require before deciding whether to participate in the Offers and does not take into account the investment objectives, financial situation or needs of you or any particular investor. You should conduct your own independent review, investigation and analysis of the securities offered under this Prospectus.

Any information or representation which is not contained in this Prospectus or disclosed by the Company pursuant to its continuous disclosure obligations may not be relied upon as having been authorised by the Company in connection with the issue of this Prospectus.

Transaction specific prospectus

This Prospectus is a transaction specific prospectus for an offers of continuously quoted securities (as defined in the Corporations Act) and options to acquire continuously quoted securities and has been prepared in accordance with section 713 of the Corporations Act. It does not contain the same level of disclosure as an initial public offering prospectus. In preparing this Prospectus regard has been had to the fact that the Company is a disclosing entity for the purposes of the Corporations Act and that certain matters may reasonably be expected to be known to investors and professional advisors to whom investors may consult.

On-sale of New Shares

This Prospectus has been prepared in respect of the Offer of Placement Options and Broker Options such that the relief provided under ASIC Corporations (Sale Offers That Do Not Need Disclosure) Instrument 2016/80 with respect to the on-sale provisions of section 707 of the Corporations Act is available. Specifically, if the Placement Options and Broker Options are issued with disclosure under this Prospectus, then any New Shares issued upon the exercise of the Placement Options or Broker Options can be on-sold within 12 months of their issue (even if the New Shares were

issued without disclosure or lodgement of a cleansing statement). This is because the Placement Options and Broker Options are issued with disclosure and the exercise of the Placement Options and Broker Options does not involve any further offer.

The Company is offering up to 1,000 Shares ( Cleansing Shares ) at an issue price of $0.105 per Cleansing Share to raise up to $105 (before costs) ( Cleansing Offer ).

The Cleansing Offer will only be extended to specific parties on invitation from the Directors. Application Forms will only be provided by the Company to these parties.

The Cleansing Shares to be issued under the Cleansing Offer will rank equally with the Shares on issue at the date of this Prospectus. Please refer to Section 4.8 for further information regarding the rights and liabilities attaching to Shares.

1.4 Purpose of this Prospectus

The purpose of this Prospectus is to:

  • (a) make the Offers;

  • (b) ensure that the on-sale of the Offer Securities does not breach section 707(3) of the Corporations Act;

  • (c) ensure that the on-sale of the underlying Shares to be issued on exercise of the Placement Options and Broker Options is in accordance with ASIC Corporations (Sale Offers That Do Not Need Disclosure) Instrument 2016/80 ; and

  • (d) remove any trading restrictions on the sale of Shares issued by the Company prior to lodgement of this Prospectus for the purposes of section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act.

Section 707(3) of the Corporations Act generally requires that a prospectus be issued to permit the issue of securities to persons without disclosure under Chapter 6D of the Corporations Act and allow those persons to on-sell those securities within 12 months of the date of their issue.

Section 708A(5) of the Corporations Act provides an exception to section 707(3) where an entity issues a ‘cleansing notice,’ to among other things, cleanse the market of any materially price sensitive information that was being withheld pursuant to a carveout under the Listing Rules. However, in this instance the Company is precluded from using a ‘cleansing notice’ in respect of the issue of Cleansing Shares, Placement Options and Broker Options as the Cleansing Shares are not in a class of securities where trading in that class was not suspended for more than a total of 5 days in the past 12 months and the Placement Options and Broker Options are not in a class of securities that were quoted at all times in the past 3 months.

Consequently, the Company has issued this Prospectus in connection with the Offer to enable the on-sale of the Cleansing Shares, Placement Options and Broker Options, and any New Shares on exercise of the Placement Options and Broker Options without further

Tivan Limited – Prospectus

page | 12

disclosure pursuant to ASIC Corporations (Sale Offers That Do Not Need Disclosure) Instrument 2016/73 . This also means that there will not be any need for the Company to issue a ‘cleansing notice’ at the time of issue of any New Shares on the exercise of Placement Options and Broker Options.

1.5 Minimum Subscription

There is no minimum subscription amount in relation to the Offers.

1.6 Oversubscriptions

The Company will not accept any oversubscriptions in relation to the Offers.

1.7 Withdrawal of Offers

The Company reserves the right not to proceed with any of the Offers at any time before the issue of the applicable Offer Securities.

1.8 Opening and Closing Dates

The Offers will be open for receipt of an acceptance on Thursday, 20 February 2025 and will close at 5:00pm (AEST) on Friday, 21 February 2025, or such later date subject to the discretion of the Directors and subject to compliance with the Listing Rules.

The Company reserves the right, subject to the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules, to extend the Closing Date without prior notice. If the Closing Date is varied, subsequent dates (including the “important dates” on page 6) may also be varied accordingly.

1.9 Underwriting

The Offers are not underwritten.

1.10 Taxation implications

The Directors do not consider it appropriate to give advice regarding the taxation consequences of subscribing for Offer Securities under the Offers.

As a result, applicants should consult their professional tax adviser in connection with subscribing for Offer Securities under the Offers.

2 Effect of the Offers on the Company

2.1 Effect of the Offers

The principal effects of the Offers on the Company are that:

  • (a) the Company will issue:

  • up to 42,857,149 Placement Options;

  • 10,000,000 Broker Options; and

  • up to 1,000 Shares;

  • (b) if Cleansing Shares are issued, the Company’s cash funds will increase by approximately $105. The Placement Options offered under the Placement Options Offer are offered for nil consideration, as they are free-attaching on the basis of one (1) Placement Option for every two (2) Placement Shares subscribed for and issued under the Placement. The Broker Options offered under the Broker Options Offer are offered for nil consideration on the same terms as the Placement Options Offer. The amount raised under the Cleansing Offer is nominal and will not have a material effect on the Company’s balance sheet. Accordingly, there will be no immediate effect on the Company's balance sheet from the issue of Offer Securities. However, funds will be raised if the Placement Options and/or Broker Options are exercised. The Company is unable to specify with any certainty the extent of any change to the balance sheet, given that there is no certainty if or when any of the Placement Options or Broker Options will be exercised; and

  • (c) the Company’s capital structure will be affected as detailed in Section 2.2.

2.2 Effect on capital structure

The effect of the issue of the Offer Securities on the capital structure of the Company is as follows:

2.3 Pro Forma Statement of Financial Position

The Company is offering 1,000 Cleansing Shares at an issue price of $0.105 per Cleansing Share, to raise $105 (before costs). No funds will be raised as a result of the issue of Placement Options or Broker Options under the Placement Options Offer or Broker Options Offer. As such, the immediate effect of the Placement Options Offer, Broker Options Offer and Cleansing Offer on the Company’s balance sheet will be minimal, limited to an immaterial increase to the Company’s existing cash reserves of the amount raised ($105), less the costs of these Offers, with a corresponding adjustment to the Company’s issued capital.

Additional capital will be raised if the Placement Options and/or Broker Options are exercised. This will affect the Company’s balance sheet. If the maximum number of Placement Options and Broker Options are issued and then exercised, the Company will receive approximately $10,571,430. However, the Company is not able to specify with any certainty the extent of any change to the balance sheet given the uncertainty around the number of Placement Options and/or Broker Options to be ultimately issued and whether and when any of the Placement Options and/or Broker Options will be exercised.

2.4

Use of Funds

The Company is offering 1,000 Cleansing Shares at an issue price of $0.105 per Cleansing Share, to raise $105 (before costs). No funds will be raised as a result of the issue of Placement Options or Broker Options under the Placement Options Offer or Broker Options Offer. As such, the immediate effect of the Offers on the Company’s existing cash reserves is minimal. Funds will be applied to offset the costs of the Offers.

The proposed use of funds from the Placement is detailed in the Company’s ASX announcement dated 13 February 2025 and titled “Tivan receives commitments for $9m share placement”.

The above is a statement of current intentions as at the date of this Prospectus. As with any budget or planned expenditure, intervening events and new circumstances have the potential to affect the manner in which the funds are ultimately applied. The Board reserves the right to alter the way in which the funds are applied on this basis.

3 Risk factors

3.1 Introduction

This Section identifies the areas that the Directors regard as the major risks associated with an investment in the Company. Investors should be aware that an investment in the Company involves many risks, which may be higher than the risks associated with an investment in other companies. Potential investors should read the whole of this Prospectus in order to fully appreciate such matters and the manner in which the Company intends to operate before any decision is made to apply for Offer Securities.

There are numerous widespread risks associated with investing in any form of business and with investing in the share market generally. There is also a range of specific risks associated with the Company’s business. These risk factors are largely beyond the control of the Company and its Directors because of the nature of the business of the Company. The following summary, which is not exhaustive, represents some of the major risk factors which potential investors need to be aware of.

3.2 Risks specific to the Offers

Funding risk

The Offers are not underwritten. The Company’s ability to operate its business and effectively implement its business plan within the timeframe that it is aiming to achieve, will depend in part on its ability to raise further substantial funds by way of debt and equity. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to secure any additional funding or be able to secure funding on terms favourable to the Company. Any additional equity financing may dilute shareholdings, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictions on financing and operating activities.

Existing funds (including any funds received under the Offers) will not be sufficient for expenditure required for certain aspects of the Company’s business plan, including for progression of its resources projects through all development requirements through to a final investment decision, and where approved, into construction.

Any inability to obtain additional financing, if required, would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company’s ability to borrow money will be subject to the availability of debt at the time the Company wishes to borrow money and the cost of borrowing.

Material uncertainty relating to going concern

The Company and its group companies incurred a loss for the financial year ended 30 June 2024 (FY24) of $67.835 million (FY23: $7.082 million), had operating cash outflows of $4.324 million (FY23: $4.789 million) and net cash outflows of $0.932 million (FY23: net cash inflow $13.144 million). The Group’s net current liability on 30 June 2024 was $13.690 million (of which $6.746 million related to liabilities associated with the convertible notes on issue and a deferred consideration derivative with King River Resources) (FY23: net current liability of $9.448 million).

The ability of the Company and its group companies to continue as a going concern is reliant on the Company and its group companies securing funds from capital raisings (including the Placement), including from equity financing and drawdown of the existing convertible note facility, or by other means (such as the sale of assets or farm-down of interests in projects) and managing cashflow in line with available funds. These conditions, and the Group’s reliance on raising additional funding to continue operations, indicate a

Tivan Limited – Prospectus

page | 23

material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern.

The Directors are satisfied there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Company and its group companies will be able to continue as a going concern, as they believe the Company will be able to raise further funding as required that will provide availability of sufficient funds for at least 12 months, as reasonably demonstrated by the Company’s ability to raise additional funding as required over the last 12 months and manage its expenditure and cashflow. The Directors position is supported by the Company’s award of a $7.4 million cash grant for the Speewah Fluorite Project under the Australian Government’s International Partnerships in Critical Minerals Program (as detailed in the ASX announcement of 6 December 2024). The Company also announced on 24 December 2024 the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding ( Mou ) for the Speewah Fluorite Project with Sumitomo Corporation, which includes attachments which describe a range of key commercial and corporate terms for the planned development, financing and operation of the Speewah Fluorite Project by way of joint venture. These include an aggregate equity investment of up to A$60 million by the three instalments via a Sumitomo Special Purpose Vehicle ( SSPV ) for an equity interest of up to 22.5% in the joint venture (subject to the signing of binding agreements, and noting the SSPV may elect not to proceed with the funding of the second ($5 million) or third ($50 million) tranche of investment). Notwithstanding that the key terms of the agreements set out in the MoU are non-binding, the MoU records the agreement of the parties to extend the exclusivity arrangements agreed to in the Strategic Alliance Agreement through to 31 March 2025 (as detailed in the ASX announcement of 24 December 2024).

Should the Company not be able to raise further funding as required, there remains a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and whether it will be able to pays its debts as and when they fall due, and realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial statements.

Exercise Price

If the Placement Options or Broker Options are exercised, there is no guarantee that Shares issued on exercise of those Placement or Broker Options will trade above the exercise price paid for those Shares.

Potential for dilution

Your shareholding in the Company will be diluted if:

  • you are issued Placement Options or Broker Options but do not exercise them because you allow those Placement Options or Broker Options to expire without being exercised; or

  • you do not receive Placement Options or Broker Options because you are not a Placement Participant or the Lead Manager and other Optionholders exercise their Options.

3.3 Risks specific to the Company

Additional requirements for capital

Further funding will be required to implement the strategic plans of the Company for progression of its resources projects and technology interests, and also to provide for the working capital costs of the Company, including in the near term. Any additional equity financing will dilute existing shareholdings, and debt financing, if available, may involve

Tivan Limited – Prospectus

page | 24

restrictions on further financing and operating activities. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may result in delay and/or indefinite postponement of exploration, development or production on the Company’s projects or even loss of a property interest. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to secure any additional funding or be able to secure funding on terms favourable to the Company.

Given that the Company is a mineral exploration entity and not yet earning steady revenue, it is reliant on external (debt and equity) funding to maintain its financial position. There is a risk that the Company will be unable to raise such funds when needed or on reasonable terms. Unless the Company is able to continue to raise funds as required, that failure could delay or suspend the Company’s business activities and could have a material adverse effect on the solvency of the Company.

Exploration and development risks

The business of mineral project exploration, development and production, by its nature, contains elements of significant risk with no guarantee of success. The Company’s flagship asset, the Speewah Fluorite Project, is still at the stage of development planning and there is no guarantee of progression into the development and production stages.

Ultimate and continuous success of the Company’s activities including across its resources projects is dependent on many factors such as:

  • the discovery and/or acquisition of economically recoverable reserves;

  • access to adequate capital for project development;

  • design and construction of efficient development and production infrastructure within capital expenditure budgets;

  • development of technically and commercially viable process flowsheets and mineral processing technology for the Company’s projects;

  • economic and technical studies, including scoping, pre-feasibility and feasibility studies, delivering on expectations with respect to anticipated capital and operating costs, and being sufficiently viable to progress project development;

  • securing and maintaining title to interests;

  • obtaining regulatory consents and approvals necessary for the conduct of mineral resource exploration, development and production; and

  • access to competent operational management and prudent financial administration, including the availability and reliability of appropriately skilled and experienced employees, contractors and consultants.

There is no assurance that any exploration on current or future interests will result in the discovery of an economic deposit of minerals, nor that projects with defined mineral deposits will be able to deliver economically and technically feasible study results relative to prior expectations that warrant further resourcing and progression. In particular, the Company may not produce sufficient quantities or qualities of minerals to be profitable or commercially viable and may result in a total loss of the investments by the Company.

Whether or not income will result from projects undergoing exploration and development programs depends on successful exploration and establishment of production facilities.

Tivan Limited – Prospectus

page | 25

Drilling activities carry risk and as such, activities may be curtailed, delayed or cancelled as a result of weather conditions, mechanical difficulties, shortages or delays in the delivery of drill rigs or other equipment.

Industry operating risks include fire, explosions, industrial disputes, unexpected shortages or increases in the costs of consumables, spare parts, plant and equipment, mechanical failure or breakdown, environmental hazards such as accidental spills or leakage of liquids, gas leaks, ruptures, discharges of toxic gases or geological uncertainty. The occurrence of any of these risks could result in legal proceedings against the Company and substantial losses to the Company due to injury or loss of life, damage to or destruction of property, natural resources or equipment, pollution or other environmental damage, clean-up responsibilities, regulatory investigation, and penalties or suspension of operations. Damage occurring to third parties as a result of such risks may give rise to claims against the Company.

In addition, the Company will be subject to multi-jurisdictional compliance with governmental regulations in relation to licence conditions, the environment and operational conduct.

These factors affect the Company’s ability to establish mining and processing operations, continue with its projects, earn income from its operations and will affect the Company’s Share price.

There is a risk that work will be delayed or hindered due to capital and/or operating cost overruns relative to expectations, weather events, labour difficulties, or force majeure events, meaning that technical and economic feasibility studies may not be delivered in the timeframe anticipated or at all. If feasibility studies are delivered, there is a risk that their overall conclusion is that a project may not be able to be exploited profitably or at all owing to the cost or revenue assumptions and/or costed estimates for the project, including with respect to increases in capital or operating cost assumptions, decreases in revenue assumptions, or adverse movement in financial assumptions, relative to earlier stage studies. This may have a negative effect on the value of the Company’s projects and of the Company’s securities, including the Offer Securities.

Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates may be inaccurate

The Company has disclosed Mineral Resource and/or Ore Reserve estimates in its public disclosures based on a number of assumptions that have been made in accordance with the JORC Code. This includes disclosure of Mineral Resources for the Speewah Project.

Such estimates are expressions of judgment based on knowledge, experience and industry practice. Estimates that were valid when made may change significantly when new information becomes available.

In addition, such estimates are necessarily imprecise and depend to some extent on interpretations, which may prove to be inaccurate. Should the Company encounter mineralisation or formations different from those predicted by past drilling, sampling and similar examinations, Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates may have to be adjusted and mining plans may have to be altered in a way which could adversely affect the Company’s operations.

The Company has also disclosed historical estimations of resources and exploration results for the Sandover Fluorite Project. These estimates are historical estimates and are not reported in accordance with the 2012 Edition of the Joint Ore Reserves Committee Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results (“JORC Code”). A competent person has not done sufficient work to classify the estimates as mineral resources or ore reserves in accordance with the JORC Code. It is uncertain that following evaluation and/or

Tivan Limited – Prospectus

page | 26

further exploration work that the estimates will be able to be reported as mineral resources or ore reserves, or results, in accordance with the JORC Code.

Production costs

All production costs, particularly labour, fuel and power, are a key risk and have the potential to adversely affect the feasibility of the Company’s projects and, when projects are in production, the Company’s profitability. If the Company’s mining projects and processing operations are subject to cost over-runs and/or higher than anticipated operating costs, this would adversely affect the feasibility of the Company’s projects, the Company’s profitability when projects are in operations, the value of the Company’s projects and in turn, the value of the Company’s securities including the Offer Securities.

Metallurgical and geotechnical risks

The economic viability of mineral recovery depends on a number of factors such as the development of an economic process route for production of concentrates and final products. Further, changes in mineralogy throughout an ore body may result in inconsistent metal recovery that may affect the viability and profitability of the Company’s projects.

The Company’s resources are subject to geotechnical risk which may adversely impact future mining operations. These risks may increase the costs of production and directly impact the mining of ore, or restrict the mining rate achievable.

Operational risks

Should the Company progress its projects through development and into operations, the Company’s performance will then be dependent on the effective operation of its mines, processing plants and supporting non-process infrastructure which could be affected by operational risks outside of the control of management. These risks include poor operating performance of plant and equipment, inclement weather (including lighting strikes and heavy rainfall), industrial accidents, mechanical and structural failures of processing facilities and inadequate maintenance of processing facilities and capital equipment. The Company’s operations may also be affected by force majeure, engineering difficulties and other unforeseen events.

Insurance coverage risk

Exploration, development and operation of mineral projects involve numerous risks, including unexpected or unusual geological operating conditions, rock bursts, cave-ins, ground or slope failures, fires, floods, earthquakes and other environmental occurrences, and political and social instability that could result in damage to or destruction of mineral properties or producing facilities, personal injury or death, environmental damage, delays in mining caused by industrial accidents or labour disputes, changes in regulatory environment, monetary losses and possible legal liability.

It is not always possible to obtain insurance against all such risks and the Company may decide not to insure against certain risks because of high premiums or other reasons. Moreover, insurance against risks such as environmental pollution or other hazards as a result of exploration and development is not generally available to the Company or to other companies in the industry on acceptable terms. Should such liabilities arise, they could reduce or eliminate any further profitability and result in increasing costs and a decline in the value of the securities of the Company.

Tivan Limited – Prospectus

page | 27

Commodity price risk and exchange rate risk

In the future, the Company's revenue is expected to come from sale of mineral products. Therefore, its earnings will be closely related to the price and arrangements it enters into for the sale of its products. Mineral product prices inherently fluctuate and are affected by factors including the relationship between global supply and demand for minerals, forward selling by producers, the cost of production and general global economic conditions.

Commodity prices are also affected by the outlook for inflation, interest rates, currency exchange rates and supply and demand issues. These factors may have an adverse effect on the Company's exploration, development and production activities as well as its ability to fund those activities.

In particular, the Company’s profitability ultimately will depend upon the world market prices of commodities potentially including but not to limited fluorspar, vanadium, titanium dioxide and iron products. If the market prices for such products fall below the Company’s production costs and remain at such levels for any sustained period of time, it may not be economically feasible to commence or continue production. This would materially and adversely affect production, profitability and the Company’s financial position. The Company may experience losses and may determine to discontinue operations or development of a project or mining at one or more of its properties. If the prices of commodities including but not limited to fluorspar, vanadium, titanium dioxide and iron products drop significantly, the economic prospects of the projects in which the Company has an interest could be significantly reduced or rendered uneconomic. There is no assurance that, even if commercial quantities of fluorspar, vanadium, titanium dioxide and iron products are produced, a profitable market will exist for them.

A decline in the market prices of fluorspar, vanadium, titanium dioxide and iron products may also require the Company to write down its mineral reserves and resources which would have a material and adverse effect on its earnings and profitability, and share price. Should any significant write-down in reserves and resources be required, material writedown of the Company’s investment in the affected mining properties and increased amortisation, reclamation and closure expenses may be required.

Furthermore, international prices of various commodities are typically denominated in United States dollars, whereas the income and expenditure of the Company are and will be taken into account in Australian currency, exposing the Company to the fluctuations and volatility of the rate of exchange between the United States dollar and the Australian dollar as determined in international markets.

Political risks

Changes, if any, in mining or investment policies or shifts in political attitude in the jurisdictions in which the Company has projects may adversely affect the Company’s exploration and development plans, future operations or profitability. Operations may be affected in varying degrees by governmental regulations with respect to, but not limited to: restrictions on production; price controls; export controls; currency remittance; income taxes; foreign investment; maintenance of claims; environmental legislation; land use; land claims of local people; water use; mine safety; and government and local participation. Failure to comply strictly with applicable laws, regulations and local practices relating to mineral tenure and development could result in loss, reduction or expropriation of entitlements. The occurrence of these various factors adds uncertainties which cannot be accurately predicted and could have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations or profitability.

Tivan Limited – Prospectus

page | 28

Access to land

The Company will experience delays and cost overruns in the event it is unable to access the land required for exploration, development and operation of its resources projects. This may be a result of weather, environmental restraints, native title, harvesting, landholder’s activities or other factors.

The Company’s exploration, development and operation activities are also dependent upon the grant, or as the case may be, the maintenance or renewal of appropriate licences, concessions, leases, permits and regulatory consents which may be withdrawn or made subject to limitations. There is no assurance that the Company will be granted all the mining tenements for which it has applied or that licences, concessions, leases, permits or consents will be renewed as and when required or that new conditions will not be imposed in connection therewith. To the extent such approvals, consents or renewals are not obtained, the Company may be curtailed or prohibited from continuing with its exploration activities or proceeding with any future exploration or development.

The Company may also require regulatory approvals to transfer, or subdivide and transfer, existing tenements between the Company and its related entities, or third parties and the Company and its related entities (including with respect to the Sandover Fluorite Project and Speewah Project). The inability to secure such approvals may prohibit the Company progressing project plans and corporate restructuring transactions. The maintenance, renewal and granting of tenements often depends on the Company being successful in obtaining required statutory approvals. The Company may be required to pay material stamp duty on tenement transfers and acquisitions with reference to the tenement or transaction value, should it not be able to secure exemptions to avoid paying stamp duty on such tenement transfers and acquisitions.

Environmental regulation risk

The Company’s operations are subject to environmental regulations in Australia. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which will require stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees. There is no assurance that future changes in environmental regulation, if any, will not adversely affect the Company’s operations.

Government approvals and permits are required in connection with the Company’s operations. To the extent such approvals are required and not obtained, the Company may be delayed or prohibited from proceeding with planned exploration or development of its mineral properties.

Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions (including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed) and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment or remedial actions.

Amendments to current laws, regulations and permits governing the Company’s operations and activities, or more stringent implementation thereof, could have a material adverse impact on the Company and cause increases in capital expenditures or require abandonment or delays in the development of new properties.

Environmental liabilities risk

The Company’s activities are subject to potential risks and liabilities associated with the potential pollution of the environment and the necessary disposal of mining waste products

Tivan Limited – Prospectus

page | 29

resulting from mineral exploration and production. Insurance against environmental risk (including potential liability for pollution or other hazards as a result of the disposal of waste products occurring from exploration and production) is not generally available to the Company (or to other companies in the minerals industry) at a reasonable price. To the extent that the Company becomes subject to environmental liabilities, the satisfaction of any such liabilities would reduce funds otherwise available to the Company and could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Laws and regulations intended to ensure the protection of the environment are constantly changing and are generally becoming more restrictive.

Land rehabilitation requirements

Although variable, depending on location and the governing authority, land rehabilitation requirements are generally imposed on mineral exploration companies, as well as companies with mining operations, in order to minimise long term effects of land disturbance. Rehabilitation may include requirements to control dispersion of potentially deleterious effluents and to reasonably re-establish pre-disturbance landforms and vegetation. In order to carry out rehabilitation obligations imposed on the Company in connection with its mineral exploration, the Company must allocate financial resources that might otherwise be spent on further exploration and/or development programs.

Climate change risk

Mining of mineral resources is relatively resource intensive and is dependent on the consumption of fossil fuels. The need to seek various environmental approvals and to comply with various regulations and government policies designed to mitigate climate change may adversely affect the Company’s cost of operations and could impact the financial performance of the Company.

Climate change may cause certain physical and environmental risks that cannot be predicted by the Company, including events such as increased severity of weather patterns and incidence of extreme weather events and longer-term physical risks such as shifting climate patterns. Climate change or prolonged periods of adverse weather and climatic conditions (including rising sea levels, floods, hail, drought, water scarcity, temperature extremes, frosts, earthquakes and pestilences) may have an adverse effect on the Company’s ability to access the Company’s projects. All these risks associated with climate change may significantly change the industry and markets in which the Company operates.

Nature-related risk

The Company, as a participant in the mining sector, faces exposure to physical and transitional nature-related risks flowing from the deterioration of the natural environment.

Litigation risk

The nature of the Company’s business and industry involves exposure to litigation, including civil liability claims, criminal claims, environmental and native title matters, health and safety matters, workers’ compensation claims, regulatory and administrative proceedings, government investigations, tort claims, contract claims, tax investigations and labour disputes.

Although the Company may defend any such matters and make insurance claims, when possible, litigation and other regulatory investigations and proceedings are costly (even if the Company were to prevail on the merits of the dispute), unpredictable and time ‑ consuming. While it is difficult for the Company to accurately predict the outcome or impact of existing or future litigation or regulatory proceedings or investigation, future

Tivan Limited – Prospectus

page | 30

litigation costs, settlements or judgments could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and reputation.

Native Title

The High Court of Australia, the Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) and State legislation recognise Aboriginal heritage and land rights. The risks include the following:

  • the Company may have to seek permits or licences to access land the subject of an Aboriginal heritage or land right claim. There is no guarantee that any such permit or licence will be granted;

  • the Company may have to comply with restrictions or conditions on accessing land the subject of an Aboriginal heritage or land right claim. This may result in the Company facing unplanned expenditure or delays. Failure to comply with any conditions on the permits may result in the Company losing its title to its tenements or forfeiting its permits;

  • the Company may have to pay compensation in order to settle native title claims. It is not possible to quantify the amount of compensation which may have to be paid at this stage; and

  • in the event the Company discovers evidence of Aboriginal heritage on land accessed by the Company, the Company must comply with regulations prohibiting the disturbance of physical evidence of prehistoric or historical significance without statutory permission and legislation prohibiting or restricting access to Aboriginal cultural heritage or native title land. Accordingly, delays or additional costs in the exploration or production of the Company’s business may be experienced. Further, the disturbance of any such land or objects may expose the Company to additional fines or other penalties.

Reliance on key personnel

The Company’s prospects depend in part on the ability of its executive officers, senior management and key consultants to operate effectively, both independently and as a group. The loss of the services of one or more of such key management personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company’s ability to manage its exploration and project and technology development activities, and hence its success, will depend in large part on the efforts of these individuals. Investors must be willing to rely to a significant extent on management’s discretion and judgement, as well as the expertise and competence of outside contractors.

Joint venture parties, contractors and agents

The Directors are unable to predict the risk of:

  • financial failure or default by a participant in any joint venture to which the Company is or may become a party;

  • disputes between joint venture participants and the Company, or between participants in any joint venture, to which the Company is or may become a party;

  • delays or inability of the Company to conclude any joint venture negotiations into binding agreements;

  • changes in proposed joint venture terms required to consummate binding agreements, or changes in existing joint venture terms required to sustain joint venture operations;

  • insolvency or other managerial failure by any of the contractors or agents used by the Company in any of its activities;

Tivan Limited – Prospectus

page | 31

  • insolvency or other managerial failure by any of the other service providers used by the Company for any activities; or

  • failure of the contractors or agents used by the Company in any of its activities to perform to the quality, scope and timeframes required.

Such risks may result in materially adverse consequences for the Company, including with respect to increases in operating and capital costs, reduction or delay in revenue, delays in schedule, inability to progress projects including during pre-development and development phases, Share price and ability to attract capital.

On 7 June 2024, the Company announced it had signed a non-binding Strategic Alliance Agreement with Sumitomo Corporation, providing a framework for negotiation of a binding joint venture agreement for the development, financing and operation of the Speewah Fluorite Project. Establishment of the joint venture remained subject to the parties agreeing the commercial terms and structure of the joint venture, and agreeing and executing all required supporting agreements. On 24 December 2024, the Company announced it had signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Sumitomo Corporation for the Speewah Fluorite Project, which includes attachments which describe a range of key commercial and corporate terms for the planned development, financing and operation of the Speewah Fluorite Project by way of incorporated joint venture. The Memorandum of Understanding replaces the Strategic Alliance Agreement. Notwithstanding that the key terms of the agreements set out in the Memorandum of Understanding are non-binding, the Memorandum of Understanding records the agreement of the parties to extend the exclusivity arrangements agreed to in the Strategic Alliance Agreement through to 31 March 2025. Binding agreements will be negotiated around the key non-binding principles set out in the Memorandum of Understanding. At the date of this Prospectus, binding agreements for the proposed joint venture Sumitomo Corporation have not been executed.

While the parties continue to work diligently in their negotiation of the binding documents in accordance with the key commercial terms announced to the ASX on 24 December 2024, there is no guarantee that the parties will reach an agreement on the binding documents or that the terms finally agreed will be the same as those set out in the ASX announcement.

Cyber security risk

The Company is dependent on the performance, reliability and availability of the Company’s and third party technology platforms, data suites and communication systems. Any damage or interruption to those systems (such as computer viruses, cyber-attacks or other events) could lead to corruption, theft or loss of data which could have an adverse effect on financial performance. If the Company was a victim of one of these events which resulted in confidential information being improperly released or disclosed, the Company could also suffer serious harm to its reputation, relationships and financial position.

Liquidity risk

There can be no guarantee that there will continue to be an active market for the Shares or that the price of the Shares will increase. There may be relatively few buyers or sellers of the Shares on the ASX at any given time. This may affect the volatility of the market price of the Company’s securities. It may also affect the prevailing market price at which holders are able to sell their securities in the Company.

Tivan Limited – Prospectus

page | 32

3.4 General Risks

Economic risks

General economic conditions, movements in interest and inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company’s exploration, development and production activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities.

Further, share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s quoted securities regardless of the Company’s operating performance. Share market conditions are affected by many factors such as:

  • general economic outlook;

  • interest rates and inflation rates;

  • currency fluctuations;

  • changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

  • the demand for, and supply of, capital; and

  • terrorism or other hostilities.

Securities price fluctuation

The market price of a publicly traded stock is affected by many variables not directly related to the success of the Company. In recent years, the securities markets have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many companies has experienced wide fluctuations which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. There can be no assurance that such fluctuations will not affect the price of the Company’s securities.

Share market risk

The market price of the Shares, Placement Options and Broker Options could fluctuate significantly. The market price of the Shares, Placement Options and Broker Options may fluctuate based on a number of factors including the Company’s operating performance and the performance of competitors and other similar companies, the public’s reaction to the Company’s press releases, other public announcements and the Company’s filings with the various securities regulatory authorities, changes in earnings estimates or recommendations by research analysts who track the Company’s securities or the shares of other companies in the resource sector, changes in general economic conditions, the number of the Company’s securities publicly traded and the arrival or departure of key personnel, acquisitions, strategic alliances or joint ventures involving the Company or its competitors.

In addition, the market price of the Shares, Placement Options and Broker Options are affected by many variables not directly related to the Company’s success and are therefore not within the Company’s control, including other developments that affect the market for all resource sector shares, the breadth of the public market for the Shares, Placement Options and Broker Options, and the attractiveness of alternative investments.

3.5 Speculative nature of investment

The above list of risk factors ought not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The above factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the Offer Securities offered under this Prospectus and the Shares in the Company.

4 Additional information

4.1 Continuous disclosure obligations

The Company is a "disclosing entity" (as defined in section 111AC of the Corporations Act) and is subject to the regime of continuous disclosure and periodic reporting requirements. Specifically, as a listed company, the Company is subject to the Listing Rules which require continuous disclosure to the market of any information possessed by the Company which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or value of its Shares.

The Directors have adopted a policy on compliance with the Listing Rules which sets out the obligations of the Directors, officers and employees to ensure the Company satisfies the continuous disclosure obligations imposed by the Listing Rules and the Corporations Act. The policy provides information as to what a person should do when they become aware of information which could have material effect on the Company’s securities and the consequences of non-compliance.

4.2 Legal framework of this Prospectus

As a "disclosing entity", the Company has issued this Prospectus in accordance with section 713 of the Corporations Act applicable to prospectuses for an offer of securities which are quoted enhanced disclosure ( ED ) securities and the securities are in a class of securities that were quoted ED securities at all times in the 3 months before the issue of this Prospectus (or Options over the same).

This Prospectus is a “transaction specific prospectus”. In general terms, a transaction specific prospectus is only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of securities on a company and the rights attaching to the securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses or prospects of the issuing company.

This Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Investors should therefore have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest.

Having taken such precautions and having made such enquiries as are reasonable, the Company believes that it has complied with the requirements of ASX as applicable to disclosing entities from time to time, and which require the Company to notify ASIC of information available to the stock market conducted by ASX, throughout the 3 months before the issue of this Prospectus.

As at the date of this Prospectus, ASIC has not made a determination which would prevent the Company from relying on section 713 of the Corporations Act in issuing the Offer Securities under this Prospectus.

There is no information which has been excluded from a continuous disclosure notice in accordance with the Listing Rules that investors or their professional advisers:

  • (a) would reasonably require for the purpose of making an informed assessment of:

  • (i) the assets and liabilities, financial position and performance, profits and losses and prospects of the Company; and

Tivan Limited – Prospectus

page | 35

  • (ii) the rights and liabilities attaching to the Offer Securities; and

  • (b) would reasonably expect to find in this Prospectus.

Information that is already in the public domain has not been reported in this Prospectus other than that which is considered necessary to make this Prospectus complete.

4.3

ASIC Instruments

The Offers are made pursuant to ASIC Corporations (Exposure Period) Instrument 2016/74 which exempts the Company from complying with section 727(3) of the Corporations Act to the extent that that section prohibits the Company from issuing Options or Shares in the seven-day period after the date of lodgement of the Prospectus with ASIC.

This Prospectus has also been issued to facilitate secondary trading of any Shares issued upon exercise of the Placement Options under the Placement Options Offer and Broker Options under the Broker Options Offer. Issuing the Placement Options and Broker Options under this Prospectus will enable persons to on-sell the Shares issued on exercise of the Placement Options or Broker Options pursuant to ASIC Corporations (Sale Offers that Do Not Need Exposure) Instrument 2016/80 .

4.4

Information available to investors

The ASX maintains files containing publicly disclosed information about all listed companies. The Company's file is available for inspection at ASX in Perth during normal office hours. In addition, copies of documents lodged by, or in relation to, the Company with ASIC may be obtained from, or inspected at, any regional office of ASIC. The Company will provide a copy of each of the following documents, free of charge, to any investor who so requests during the application period under this Prospectus:

  • (a) the annual financial report for the Company for the year ending 30 June 2024; and

4.5 Design and distribution obligations

The product design and distributions obligations under the Corporations Act ( DDO Obligations ) are intended to help consumers obtain appropriate financial products by requiring issuers and distributors to have a consumer-centric product. The DDO Obligations require product issuers to make publicly available a target market determination that explains the target market for certain securities, any distribution conditions and any information related to reviewing and monitoring conduct in relation to the target market determination.

The Company has prepared a TMD in respect of the Placement Options which is available on the Company’s website at www.tivan.com.au.

4.6

Corporate Governance

The Company has adopted comprehensive systems of control and accountability as the basis for the administration of corporate governance. The Board is committed to administering the policies and procedures with openness and integrity, pursuing the true spirit of corporate governance commensurate with the Company's needs.

To the extent that they are applicable to the Company, the Board has adopted the ASX Corporate Governance Council's Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations where the Board has considered the recommendation to be an appropriate benchmark for its corporate governance practices. Where, after due consideration, the Company’s corporate governance practices depart from a recommendation, the Board has disclosed the reasons for the departure in its Corporate Governance Statement for the financial year ended 30 June 2024.

A copy of the Corporate Governance Statement for the financial year ended 30 June 2024 and a summary of the Company’s corporate governance policies and procedures are available on the Company’s website at www.tivan.com.au/company/corporategovernance.

  • (m) ( Amendments ): An Option does not confer the right to a change in the Exercise Price or a change in the number of underlying securities over which the Option can be exercised.

4.8 Rights and obligations attaching to Shares

The Cleansing Shares, and Shares obtained through the exercise of the Placement Options and Broker Options will rank equally in all respects with the Company’s existing Shares on issue at the time.

Full details of the rights attaching to the Company’s Shares are set out in its Constitution, a copy of which can be inspected at the Company’s registered office.

The following is a summary of the principal rights which attach to the Company’s Shares:

(a) Voting

Every holder of Shares present in person or by proxy, attorney or representative at a meeting of Shareholders has one vote on a vote taken by a show of hands, and, on a poll every holder of Shares who is present in person or by proxy, attorney or representative has one vote for every Share held by him or her, and a proportionate vote for every Share, registered in such shareholder's name on the Register.

A poll may be demanded by the chairman of the meeting, by any five Shareholders entitled to vote on the particular resolution present in person or by proxy, attorney or representative, or by any one or more Shareholders who are together entitled to not less than 5% of the total voting rights of, or paid up value of, the Shares of all those Shareholders having the right to vote on the resolution.

(b) Dividends

Dividends are payable out of the Company's profits and are declared by the Directors.

(c) Transfer of Shares

A Shareholder may transfer Shares by a market transfer in accordance with any computerised or electronic system established or recognised by the Listing Rules or the Corporations Act for the purpose of facilitating transfers in Shares or by an instrument in writing in a form approved by ASX or in any other usual form or in any form approved by the Directors.

The Company may refuse to register any transfer of Shares where the Company is permitted or required to do so by the Listing Rules or the ASX Settlement Operating Rules. The Company must not otherwise refuse or fail to register a transfer of shares.

(d) Meetings and notice

Each Shareholder is entitled to receive notice of and to attend general meetings of the Company and to receive all notices, accounts and other documents required to be sent to Shareholders under the Constitution of the Company, the Corporations Act or the Listing Rules.

Tivan Limited – Prospectus

page | 40

(e) Liquidation rights

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution, divide among the Shareholders in kind the whole or any part of the property of the Company, and may for that purpose set such value as he or she considers fair upon any property to be so divided, and may determine how the division is to be carried out as between the Shareholders or different classes of Shareholders.

(f) Shareholder liability

As the Shares issued on exercise of the Placement and Broker Options issued under the Prospectus are fully paid Shares, they are not subject to any calls for money by the Directors and will therefore not become liable for forfeiture.

(g) Alteration to the Constitution

The constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of shareholders present and voting at a general meeting. At least 28 days' written notice, specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution must be given.

(h) Listing Rules

If the Company is admitted to the Official List, then despite anything in the constitution of the Company, if the Listing Rules prohibit an act being done, the act must not be done. Nothing in the constitution prevents an act being done that the Listing Rules require to be done. If the Listing Rules require an act to be done or not to be done, authority is given for that act to be done or not to be done (as the case may be). If the Listing Rules require the constitution to contain a provision or not to contain a provision the constitution is deemed to contain that provision or not to contain that provision (as the case may be). If a provision of the constitution is or becomes inconsistent with the Listing Rules, the constitution is deemed not to contain that provision to the extent of the inconsistency.
