EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide Shareholders with an explanation of the business of the meeting and the resolutions proposed to be considered at the General Meeting.

1. RESOLUTION 1 – RATIFICATION OF ISSUE OF SECURITIES

Introduction

The Board is allowed to issue or agree to issue up to 15% of its issued capital without Shareholder approval each 12 months under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, and a further 10% under certain conditions under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. The Company has issued securities for the purposes as set out in sections 1.1. to 1.2.

Under Listing Rule 7.4, the Company can seek Shareholder ratification of an issue made within the limit of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A, and, if given, the effect of the ratification is to deem that the securities issued were issued with Shareholder approval, meaning that, from the date of the approval, the Board is again able to issue up to a further 15% and 10% respectively of the issued capital without Shareholder approval. The issues of securities set out in sections 1.1 to 1.2 were within the limits of Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.

If shareholder approval is not given, the Equity Securities set out in sections 1.1. to 1.2 will count in calculating the Company’s 15% and 10% limits, thereby decreasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue in the 12 months following the issue dates.

2 RESOLUTION 2 - APPROVAL OF ISSUE OF SECURITIES

Introduction

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period. There are a number of exceptions to this Rule, including where the company first obtains Shareholder approval to issue the securities.

The effect of Resolution 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 will be to allow the Company to issue the securities referred to in those resolutions during the period of 3 months after this meeting, without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

If any of Resolutions 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 or 2.4 are not approved, the Company will not be able to issue the securities referred to as contemplated by those resolutions, and the Board may need to further review the Company operations and the Company’s utilisation of working capital and will be required to pay cash fees in place of the securities.

2.1 Background to the Placement

On 27 February 2026, the Company announced the Placement of $3.0 million through the issue of approximately 500.0m Shares at a price of $0.006 per Share with certain elements subject to shareholder approval. The Company issued 253.3 million Shares on 5 March 2026 which are the subject of Resolutions 1.1 and 1.2, and now seeks Shareholder approval to issue the following securities to complete the Placement:

  • 246,715,652 Shares;

  • 500,000,000 Placement Options; and

  • 90,909,090 Broker Options.

7

Subject to Shareholder approval investors under the Placement will receive a free Placement Option for every two Shares subscribed for with an exercise price of $0.008 and an expiry date 3 years from date of issue.

Peak and Alpine were joint lead managers to the Placement. They received a cash commission of 6% of the amount raised, and subject to Shareholder approval will receive 90,909,090 Broker Options. Broker Options are to be issued on the same terms as Placement Options.

Funds raised under the Placement will be used to facilitate entry into the Japanese water market, expansion into the Australian market, platform enhancements and general working capital purposes. Together with the expected R&D rebate for FY26, funds will also be used to repay approximately $1.8 million in existing convertible loans (with a proportion of this converting to equity).

In addition to the Placement, Peak have been contracted to provide advisory services to the Company for six months at a total fee of $60,000 plus GST. Peak have agreed to receive fully paid ordinary Shares at a 15% discount to the 15 day volume weighted average price on the trigger date (“Services Shares”) as the compensation for these services subject to Shareholder approval. Service Shares will be issued in two equal value tranches based on the Share price on 19 February 2026 and 19 May 2026.

In addition to the Placement, Mawson Business Advisory (“Mawson”) have been contracted to provide advisory services to the Company for a minimum of six months for which they have agreed to receive 14,000,000 options on the same terms as the Placement Options in addition to any cash compensation (“Service Options”).

3.1 ASX Listing Rules 10.11 and 10.13

ASX Listing Rule 10.11 provides that shareholder approval must be obtained where an entity issues equity securities to a director including Shares and Options. If Shareholder approval is not given, Directors will not be allowed to participate in the Placement and the securities will not be issued to them.

Pursuant to and in accordance with the requirements of the ASX Listing Rules 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of securities:

The name of the person Mohan Jesudason, The Hon Alan Stockdale AO,

3.2 Section 208 of the Corporations Act

Section 208 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:

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

  • give the benefit within 24 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.

Issuing Shares and Options constitutes giving a financial benefit under the Corporations Act, and the recipients are related parties of the Company. One of the exceptions to section 208 is section 2.10 which states that:

Member approval is not needed to give a financial benefit on terms that:

11

(a) would be reasonable in the circumstances if the public company or entity and the related party were dealing at arm’s length; or

(b) are less favourable to the related party than the terms referred to in paragraph (a).

As the proposed issue of the Shares and Placement Options are on the same terms as under the Placement made the third parties, that issue is therefore at arms length.

3.3 Recommendations of Directors

3.3.1 Resolution 3.1

The Directors other than Mohan Jesudason recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.1. The Chair intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of it. Mohan Jesudason declines to make a recommendation as he has an interest in this resolution.

Terms and Conditions of Options

  1. Options may be exercised in whole or in parcels by:

(a) delivering to the Company before 5.00pm (Melbourne time) prior to the expiry date (the Option Expiry Date) the application for shares on exercise of options ( Exercise Notice ) duly executed by the Optionholder (together with the Option Certificate) specifying the number of Options being exercised ( Relevant Number ); and

  3. (b) payment to the Company by bank cheque or other immediately available funds of an amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Options being exercised (the Settlement Price ).

  4. The Company must within 2 Business Days of the receipt by it of the last of the documents referred to above and subject to receipt by the Company of the Settlement Price:

  5. (a) issue to the Optionholder (or its designee or nominee) the Relevant Number of Shares;

  6. (b) issue, or cause to be issued, to the Optionholder a holding statement for the Relevant Number of Shares; and

  7. (c) if applicable, issue a replacement Option Certificate to the Optionholder for the balance of any unexercised Options; and

  8. (d) lodge a cleansing notice in accordance with section 708A of the Corporations Act to permit the on-sale of any Shares issued upon exercise of the Options. If the Company is unable to issue such a notice, it must notify the Optionholder of such as soon as possible and lodge with ASIC a prospectus prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act and do all such things necessary to satisfy section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors; and

  9. (e) if admitted to the official list of ASX at the time, apply for official quotation on ASX of Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the Options.

  10. If a notice delivered under clause 2(c) for any reason is not effective to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors, the Company must, no later than 20 Business Days after becoming aware of such notice being ineffective, lodge with ASIC a prospectus prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act and do all such things necessary to satisfy section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company must still otherwise comply with the remaining obligations set out in clause 2(a), including the requirement to issue the Optionholder with the Relevant Number of Shares within two Business Days of receiving the Exercise Notice.

  11. The Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the Options will be issued as fully paid.

  12. Until the Option Expiry Date for so long as the Optionholder holds any unexercised Options, the Company will give the Optionholder notice of all general meetings of the Company and of all resolutions to be considered at those meetings and all other statements, notices, annual reports or circulars at the same time the shareholders of the Company are issued with those notices.

  13. An Option does not confer any rights of a shareholder of the Company, including any rights to dividends and the right to vote.

  14. An Option does not confer any right on the holder to participate in a new issue without exercising the Option.

  15. The Optionholder will be entitled to participate in any rights to take up Additional Rights on the same terms and conditions as applicable to the other offerees or shareholders of the Company provided that the Optionholder has exercised any Option prior to the Record Date for the relevant offer.

  16. Any Shares issued to the Optionholder as a result of the exercise of an Option will rank pari passu in all respects with all other Shares then on issue. Shares issued upon the exercise of Options will only carry an entitlement to receive a dividend if they were issued before the Record Date for that dividend.

14

  1. If there is a Bonus Issue to holders of Shares, the number of Shares over which an Option is exercisable is increased by the number of Shares which the holder of the Option would have received if the Option had been exercised before the Record Date for the Bonus Issue.

  2. If, before exercise or expiry of the Options, the Company implements a reorganisation of its capital:

  3. (f) the Options must be treated in the manner required by the ASX Listing Rules;

  4. (g) the Company must notify the Optionholder of any proposed variation to the terms of Options no less than 5 Business Days prior to the date of variation; and

  5. (h) the Company must provide confirmation to the Optionholder immediately after the date of variation that the terms of the Options have been varied as proposed.
