Pro-forma consolidated statement of financial position

A pro-forma consolidated statement of financial position is set out in Schedule 1. This is based on the Company's financial statements for the half year period ended 30 June 2025.

The following adjustments and assumptions have been made in relation to the pro-forma consolidated statement of financial position:

The pro forma financial information is presented in an abbreviated form and does not include all of the disclosures required by Australian Accounting Standards applicable to the annual financial report. The pro forma financial information is not audited.
Cash proceeds of up to US$33,725,000 arising from drawdown of the maximum amount of the funds associated with the Second Tranche Convertible Debentures have been recognised. The Second Tranche Convertible Debentures have been provisionally measured at fair value.
Cash proceeds of up to US$38,000,000 arising from drawdown of the maximum amount of the funds associated with the Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures have been recognised. The Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures have been provisionally measured at fair value.
The provisional accounting for the Second Tranche Convertible Debentures and the Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures and allocations between borrowings, derivative financial instruments and equity may change in the future.
Transaction costs have not been included. However, when incurred they will reduce the carrying amount of the liability and be amortised over the life of the Second Tranche Convertible Debentures and the Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures.

The pro-forma consolidated statement of financial position reflects the maximum aggregate amount of the funds associated with the Second Tranche Convertible Debentures and the Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures, and the Company advises that it does not show the current financial position of the Company as at the date of this Cleansing Notice, and that the information is provided for illustrative purposes only.

4.3
Potential effect on capital structure

The capital structure of the Company as at the date of this Cleansing Notice and before the issue of the Second Tranche Convertible Debentures and Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures is set out below.

The effect of conversion of the Second Tranche Convertible Debentures and the Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures on the Company’s issued share capital will depend on what portion (if any) of the Second Tranche Convertible Debentures and the Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures are converted to Shares at any one time and the conversion price at the time of the conversion. The number of Shares to be issued upon any conversion is calculated in accordance with a variable formula which depends on both the market price of the Shares on ASX and the AUD/USD exchange rate at the time of conversion. This is subject to an upper limit (based on the "Fixed Conversion Price" of AU$0.6435 per Share) and a lower limit (being a "Floor Price" of AU$0.12 per Share).

As at the date of this Cleansing Notice, no Second Tranche Convertible Debentures or Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures have been converted.

* This assumes conversion at the lowest possible conversion price under the Agreement, assuming an AUD:USD exchange rate of 0.6616. The actual number of Shares to be issued on conversion will be calculated in accordance with the conversion rate for the First Tranche Convertible Debentures, as detailed in Schedule 2.

** These are the US$30,000,000 worth of unsecured convertible notes issued to LG Energy Solution on 21 June 2023.

These workings are an example only, and the actual number of Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures that are converted to Shares and the number of Shares on issue at the time of conversion, may differ. This will result in the maximum number of Shares to be issued and the dilution percentage to also differ.

4.4
Potential effect on control of the Company

As at the date of this Cleansing Notice, the Investor holds 8,623,082 Shares.

The level of ownership of Shares by the Investor, if the Second Tranche Convertible Debentures and Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures are converted, will depend on the number of Second Tranche Convertible Debentures and Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures that are converted to Shares and the number of Shares on issue at the time of conversion. The number of Shares that could be issued upon conversion is subject to an upper limit (based on the "Fixed Conversion Price" of AU$0.6435 per Share) and a lower limit (being a "Floor Price" of AU$0.12 per Share). This is designed, in part, to limit the dilutionary impacts of any conversion of the Convertible Debentures.

If conversion of the Second Tranche Convertible Debentures and Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures occurred at the Floor Price, this would result in the maximum number of Shares that the Investor would be entitled to upon such conversion, and in such circumstances the Investor would hold 58.83%% of all Shares currently on issue. This would require that the price of the Shares on ASX reduced to a price below AU$0.12 at the time of conversion, which represents a 73.63% discount to the price of the Shares on ASX on 9 September 2025.

In addition, under the Agreement, the Investor can only convert such amount of the Second Drawdown Convertible Debentures and Additional Drawdown Convertible Debentures that represents the amount drawn down by the Company on the funds associated with them, and there are limits to how many Shares the Investor can be issued upon conversion which will limit the potential effect on control of the Company, namely that the Investor and any associates of the Investor are not permitted to convert any Convertible Debentures if on doing so the Investor and its associates would hold a relevant interest in the Company that exceeds 19.99% at the time of conversion.

Summary of the rights and liabilities attaching to Shares issued on conversion of the Second Tranche Convertible Debentures and Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures

 

Shares registered in the Shareholder’s name as the amount paid (not credited) bears to the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited).

Ranking of Shares

At the date of this Cleansing Notice, all shares are of the same class and rank equally in all respects.

Variation of rights

Subject to the Corporations Act and the terms of issue of a class of shares, wherever the capital of the Company is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class of shares may be varied:

with the written consent of the holders of at least 75% of the issued shares in the particular class; or
by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of shares in that class.

Dividend rights

The Board may declare or determine that a dividend is payable on Shares. The Board may fix the amount of the dividend, the time for determining entitlements to the dividend, the time for the payment of the dividend and the method of payment of the dividend.

If a dividend is declared or determined to be payable, Shareholders will be entitled to dividends, distributed among members in proportion to the capital paid up, from the date of payment.

Transfer of Shares

Shares can be transferred by a proper instrument of transfer.

The instrument of transfer must be in writing or any other form approved by the Directors, and signed by the transferor and the transferee. Except where the operating rules of an applicable CS facility licensee, being the ASTC Operating Rules provide otherwise, until the transferee has been registered, the transferor is deemed to remain the holder of the Shares, even after signing the instrument of transfer.

In some circumstances, the Directors may refuse to register a transfer if on registration the transferee will hold less than a marketable parcel. The Board may refuse to register a transfer of shares on which the Company has a lien.

Rights on winding up

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may with the sanction of a special resolution, divide the assets of the Company amongst Shareholders as the liquidator sees fit. The liquidator may not require a Shareholder to accept any Shares or other securities in respect of which there is any liability.

Summary

 

Each Additional Tranche Convertible Debenture matures on the day which is 18 months after the date of the Additional Drawdown, unless earlier redeemed or converted.

Interest Rate

5% per annum (unless an event of default has occurred and is subsisting, in which case additional default interest accrues at the rate of 13% per annum).

Interest Payment Dates

Semi-annually up to the Maturity Date, and upon conversion of any Convertible Debentures.

Interest Equity Shares

The Company issued a number of Shares (Interest Equity Shares) to Yorkville simultaneously with the issue of the First Tranche Convertible Debentures, as prepayment of interest payable on the full-face value of the First Tranche Convertible Debentures for the first three-month period commencing on the date of the First Drawdown (First Interest Period).

The number of Interest Equity Shares to be issued is determined based on the maximum amount of interest payable on the full-face value of the First Tranche Convertible Debentures for the First Interest Period (being US$302,055) (Base Prepayment) divided by the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 23 July 2025 (after applying the AUD/USD exchange rate on that date).

If the actual amount of interest that would otherwise be payable on the face value of the First Tranche Convertible Debentures as at the end of the First Interest Period is less than the Base Prepayment, the amount of the over payment will be deducted from any future payments of interest by the Company until there is no difference between the Base Prepayment and such actual amount. To the extent that the over payment has not been fully deducted at the end of the First Interest Period, any conversions of the First Tranche Convertible Debentures by Yorkville will be adjusted accordingly.

Interest Payments

Interest is to be paid in cash, Shares or a combination of both cash and Shares.

Ranking on conversion

Shares issued on conversion are fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company (Shares), having all the rights set out in the Company's constitution.

Conversion by Yorkville

Subject to the caps on conversions described below, Yorkville may elect to convert one or more Convertible Debentures into Shares at any time after the date of issue at the Conversion Price (described below), up until but excluding the date that is three Trading Days prior to the relevant Maturity Date.

In respect of the First Tranche Convertible Debentures, Yorkville's right to convert the First Tranche Convertible Debentures is capped at 95,466,845 Shares (less the amount of Interest Equity Shares), unless and until shareholders approve the issue of the underlying Shares.

In respect of the Second Tranche Convertible Debentures and the Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures, Yorkville is only entitled to convert such number of Second Tranche Convertible Debentures that represents the

Summary

 

amounts of the Second Drawdown and Final Drawdown, and such number of Additional Tranche Convertible Debentures that represents the amount of the Additional Drawdown, that have been drawn by the Company at the time of the proposed conversion.

Conversion Price

The Conversion Price is the price equal to the greater of:

the "Floor Price" of AU$0.12, which represents 20% of the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 23 July 2025 (being AU$0.585), rounded up to the nearest whole cent (Floor Price); and
the lower of:
the "Variable Conversion Price", being
95% of the volume weighted average market price (in A$) of the Shares on the ASX in respect of a Share on any Trading Day, as reported by Bloomberg or an alternative reputable reporting platform (VWAP), of the Shares on ASX over the five consecutive Trading Days preceding the proposed conversion; or
if the total trading volume of the Shares on any Trading Day on ASX is zero, the lower of the day prior to, or after, such date; and
the "Fixed Price" of a price equivalent to 110% of the price of the Shares on ASX on the Trading Day immediately prior to the date of the Funding Agreement (Fixed Conversion Price).

Conversion Price Adjustments

The Conversion Price will be adjusted where a security structure event occurs. A security structure event includes any consolidation, subdivision or pro-rata cancellation of the Company's issued capital, payment of a dividend in Shares or distribution of Shares, and excludes rights offerings and bonus issues.

Early redemption by the Company

At any time until the date that is three months prior to the relevant maturity date, the Company may redeem all or part of the outstanding Convertible Debentures in cash at a price equal to 110% of the amount outstanding, provided that:

the average of the seven daily VWAPs of the Shares on ASX preceding the proposed early redemption; and
the VWAP of the Shares on ASX on the day prior to the proposed early redemption,

are each less than the Fixed Conversion Price.

Mandatory redemption for Amortisation Event

If an Amortisation Event occurs, the Company must redeem Convertible Debentures representing 20% of the amount outstanding at the time of the Amortisation Event by paying such amount to the Investor in cash.

Redemption at Maturity

Automatic redemption on the relevant Maturity Date at an amount equal to the face value of the outstanding Convertible Debentures.

Negative Covenants

Restrictions on further financial indebtedness by the Company and on entering into variable rate transactions (i.e., transactions involving the issue of convertible securities at a variable conversion rate) without Yorkville's written approval.

Events of default

The Funding Agreement contains certain customary events of default, including:

breach by the Company of any of its material obligations or negative covenants;

it becomes unlawful for the Company to perform or comply with any one or more of its obligations, or for the Investor to convert any Convertible Debentures or hold any Shares.

Following an event of default and subject to any applicable cure period, Yorkville may declare all amounts outstanding in respect of the Convertible Debentures and all other amounts payable immediately due and payable, or may require conversion of some or all Convertible Debentures at a conversion price which is equal to 80% of the lowest daily VWAP over the 10 consecutive Trading Days preceding the conversion.

Transfer Restrictions

Yorkville may transfer Convertible Debentures to any affiliate without the Company's prior written consent to the proposed transfer, provided that the transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the Funding Agreement.

Change of Control

If a change of control transaction results in a bidder under a takeover bid acquiring a relevant interest in at least 50% of the Shares, or an acquirer becoming entitled to acquire 100% of the Shares under a scheme of arrangement, and Yorkville has not converted or redeemed all of its Convertible Debentures, the Company may elect to redeem all of the outstanding Convertible Debentures in cash at a redemption price equal to 110% of the amount outstanding on the Convertible Debentures.
