The Company also proposes issuing an aggregate of 28,571,428 Placement Shares (with free-attaching options as described below) to related parties subject to shareholder approval which is sought under Resolutions 5A to 5C. Further details are set out below. These subscriptions form part of the overall $4.8 million raising amount.

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

Accordingly, the Company proposes issuing the following securities under the SPP:

The terms of the SPP are such that the exception in Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 5 does not apply to the SPP.

The waiver application is expected to be determined by ASX prior to the date of the Meeting.
