The Placement completed and Shares were issued on 10 August 2023.
In order to provide Eligible Shareholders (defined below) with the ability to participate in the Company’s capital raising activities, the Company is pleased to provide details of a Share Purchase Plan ( Plan ) as announced by the Company to the ASX on 2 & 7 August 2023.

The offer under the Plan ( Offer ) is intending to raise a maximum of $500,000 on the terms and conditions contained in this document ( Terms and Conditions ).

Share Purchase Plan
The Plan entitles Eligible Shareholders, irrespective of the size of their shareholding in the Company, to purchase up to $30,000 worth of Shares at an issue price of $0.03 per Share ( Price ) being the same issue price as the Shares offered to sophisticated and professional investors under the Placement.

Depending on applications received, the Company may, in its absolute discretion, undertake a scale back so that no more than $500,000 is raised under the Plan Scale back decisions are made by the Board and are final.
Eligible Shareholders will also receive one (1) free attaching Option for every four (4) Shares subscribed for and issued under the Plan. Each free attaching Option will be on the same terms as the Options issued under the Placement. The offer of Options is a separate offer which will be made under a prospectus and is subject to shareholder approval.
The Plan will not be underwritten.
The Directors of the Company who are Eligible Shareholders may participate under the Plan, subject to the ASX Listing Rules and necessary legal requirements.

HOW TO APPLY FOR NEW SHARES UNDER THE SPP

As an Eligible Shareholder, you can apply for up to a maximum of $30,000 worth of New Shares. Eligible Shareholders can select one of the parcels prescribed overleaf.
In order to comply with ASIC Corporations (Share and Interest Purchase Plans) Instrument 2019/547, the application price for New Shares each Eligible Shareholder (irrespective of the size of their shareholding) may apply for under this Offer is $30,000 (including through joint holding(s), multiple share accounts or any holding in which they have a beneficial interest/s). This limit will apply even if you receive more than one offer from the Company (for example, because you are a joint holder of New Shares or because you hold more than one shareholding under separate share accounts).
If the Company receives an amount that does not equal one of the amounts specified overleaf the Company may accept the payment at their discretion and refund any excess Application Money (without interest) to the Eligible Shareholder. If the Company receives a subscription of over $30,000 worth of New Shares by an Eligible Shareholder through multiple applications or joint holdings, the Company may refund any excess Application Money (without interest) to the Eligible Shareholder.
Any application made under the SPP is not guaranteed to result in the Eligible Shareholder receiving any New Shares that have been applied for. Applications may be scaled back as described in the Offer Booklet that this Application Form accompanies.
