Dear Xanadu Shareholder,
Bastion Mining Pte Ltd's off-market takeover for Xanadu Mines Limited – Notice of Compulsory Acquisition
We refer to the off-market bid by Bastion Mining Pte Ltd UEN 202512367N (Bastion) under Chapter 6 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (Corporations Act) to acquire all of the ordinary shares in Xanadu Mines Limited ACN 114 249 026 (ASX:XAM, TSX:XAM) (Xanadu) (the Offer).
As you may be aware, as of 24 July 2025, Bastion has acquired a relevant interest in more than 90% of the ordinary shares in Xanadu (Xanadu Shares), and has acquired more than 75% of the Xanadu Shares that it offered to acquire under the Offer.
Accordingly, Bastion will now exercise its right to compulsorily acquire the remaining Xanadu Shares in which Bastion does not have a relevant interest under the compulsory acquisition provisions of the Corporations Act.
Xanadu shareholders who have not accepted the Offer may still do so by the scheduled Offer closing time of 7:00pm (Sydney time) on Tuesday, 5 August 2025. Xanadu shareholders who accept the Offer by this closing date will receive the consideration for their Xanadu Shares earlier, instead of having to wait to be acquired under the compulsory acquisition process.
Bastion will acquire any Xanadu Shares remaining after the close of the Offer, under the compulsory acquisition provisions of the Corporations Act. The compulsory acquisition will be on the same terms as the Offer applying at such time (i.e. the consideration of A$0.08 per Xanadu Share).
If you do not accept the Offer before the scheduled closing time for the Offer, on completion of the compulsory acquisition procedure, Bastion will pay to Xanadu the consideration for the Xanadu Shares that it compulsorily acquires. You will then be entitled to claim the consideration from Xanadu.
Xanadu will give notice to shareholders once it has received the consideration and advise how you may claim the consideration. Subject to the Corporations Act, this is expected to occur five to six weeks after the date of this letter.
See also the enclosed copy of ASIC Form 6021 Notice of Compulsory Acquisition Following Takeover Bid (Compulsory Acquisition Notice), which sets out the compulsory acquisition process and your rights.
Samples/000001/000001
Under ASX Listing Rule 17.4, ASX will suspend quotation of Xanadu Shares five business days after the date of the Compulsory Acquisition Notice. Once suspended, ASX will remove Xanadu from the official list of the ASX at the close of trading on a date to be determined.
If you have any queries in relation to the Offer or the compulsory acquisition process, please contact the Offer Information Line on 1300 116 263 (from within Australia) or +61 3 9415 4283 (from outside Australia), Monday to Friday between 9:00am to 5:00pm (Sydney time).
Yours sincerely
