The business of the Meeting affects your shareholding and your vote is important.

The Directors have determined pursuant to Regulation 7.11.37 of the Corporations Regulations 2001 (Cth) that the persons eligible to vote at the Meeting are those who are registered Shareholders at 4:00pm (WST) on 7 March 2017.

DI Holders may attend the Meeting but will not be permitted to vote at the Meeting. For their votes to be counted DI Holders must submit their CREST Voting Instruction to the Company's agent by 10am (GMT) on 3 March 2017. Alternatively DI Holders can vote using the enclosed Form of Instruction in accordance with the instructions below.

If you do not wish to attend the meeting, you may appoint a proxy to attend and vote on your behalf. A body corporate may also appoint a proxy. A proxy need not be a shareholder. If a representative of a corporate proxy is to attend the meeting, you must ensure that the appointment of the representative is in accordance with section 250D of the Corporations Act. The corporate representative should bring to the meeting evidence of his or her appointment, including any authority under which the appointment is signed. A form of the certificate may be obtained from the Company's share registry.

You are entitled to appoint up to 2 proxies to attend the meeting and vote on your behalf and may specify the proportion or number of votes that each proxy is entitled to exercise. If you do not specify the proportion or number of votes that each proxy is entitled to exercise, each proxy may exercise half of the votes.

Sections 250BB and 250BC of the Corporations Act took effect on 1 August 2011 and apply to voting by proxy. Shareholders and their proxies should be aware of these changes to the Corporations Act, as they will apply to this meeting. Broadly, the changes mean that:

· if proxy holders vote, they must cast all directed proxies as directed; and

· any directed proxies which are not voted will automatically default to the chairman of the meeting, who must vote the proxies as directed.

If the proxy has two or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on a resolution, the proxy must not vote on that resolution on a show of hands.

To be valid, your proxy form (and any power of attorney under which it is signed) must be received at an address given below by 10:00am (WST) on 7 March 2017. Any proxy form received after that time will not be valid for the scheduled meeting.

DI Holders in CREST may transmit voting instructions by utilising the CREST voting service in accordance with the procedures described in the CREST Manual. CREST personal members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed a voting service provider, should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider, who will be able to take appropriate action on their behalf.

In order for instructions made using the CREST voting service to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (CREST Voting Instruction) must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear's specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual (available via www.euroclear.com/CREST).

To be effective, the CREST Voting Instruction must be transmitted so as to be received by the Company's agent (3RA50) no later than 10am (GMT) on 3 March 2017. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the CREST Voting Instruction by the CREST applications host) from which the Company's agent is able to retrieve the CREST Voting Instruction by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. DI Holders in CREST and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers should note that Euroclear does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages. Normal system timings and limitations will therefore apply in relation to the transmission of CREST Voting Instructions. It is the responsibility of the DI Holder concerned to take (or, if the DI Holder is a CREST personal member or sponsored member or has appointed a voting service provider, to procure that the CREST sponsor or voting service provider takes) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a CREST Voting Instruction is transmitted by means of the CREST voting service by any particular time.

In this connection, DI Holders and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.

Dated: 19 January 2017

By order of the Board

David Wall

Director

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.

In accordance with the Constitution, the business of the Annual General Meeting will include receipt and consideration of the annual financial report of the Company for the period from 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2016 together with the Directors' Declaration, the Directors' Report, the Remuneration Report and the Auditor's Report.

The Company will not provide a hard copy of the Company's annual financial report to Shareholders unless specifically requested to do so. The Company's annual financial report is available on its website www.88energy.com or on the ASX platform for "88E" www.asx.com.au.

2.1 General

The Corporations Act requires that at a listed company's annual general meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted must be put to the shareholders. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the company or the directors of the company.

The remuneration report sets out the company's remuneration arrangements for the directors and senior management of the company. The remuneration report is part of the directors' report contained in the annual financial report of the company for a financial year.

The chair of the meeting must allow a reasonable opportunity for its shareholders to ask questions about or make comments on the remuneration report at the annual general meeting.

2.2 Voting consequences

Under changes to the Corporations Act which came into effect on 1 July 2011, a company is required to put to its shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of another meeting of shareholders to consider the appointment of directors of the company (Spill Resolution) if, at consecutive annual general meetings, at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report and at the first of those annual general meetings a Spill Resolution was not put to vote. If required, the Spill Resolution must be put to vote at the second of those annual general meetings.

If more than 50% of votes cast are in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene a shareholder meeting (Spill Meeting) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting.

All of the directors of the company who were in office when the directors' report (as included in the company's annual financial report for the most recent financial year) was approved, other than the managing director of the company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting.

Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election as directors of the company is approved will be the directors of the company.

2.3 Previous voting results

At the Company's previous annual general meeting the votes cast against the remuneration report considered at that annual general meeting were less than 25%. Accordingly, the Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Annual General Meeting.

2.4 Proxy voting restrictions

Shareholders appointing a proxy for this Resolution should note the following:

Notes:

1 Refers to Key Management Personnel (other than the Chair) whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report, or a Closely Related Party of such a member.

2 Refers to the Chair (where he/she is also a member of the Key Management Personnel whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report), or a Closely Related Party of such a member).

3 Undirected proxies granted to these persons will not be voted and will not be counted in calculating the required majority if a poll is called on this Resolution.

4 The Proxy Form notes it is the Chair's intention to vote all undirected proxies in favour of all Resolutions.

3.1 Background

ASX Listing Rule 14.4 provides that a director of an entity must not hold office (without re-election) past the third AGM following the director's appointment or 3 year, whichever is the longer.

The Constitution of the Company requires that one third of the Directors in office (other than a Managing Director) must retire by rotation at each annual general meeting of the Company.

Dr Stephen Staley is a Fellow of the Geological Society, holds a BSc (Hons.) in Geophysics from Edinburgh University, a PhD in Petroleum Geology from Sheffield University and an MBA from Warwick University. Stephen was founder and former Managing Director of Independent Resources plc and is founder and Managing Director of Derwent Resources Limited. Stephen has 33 years' experience in the energy sector, including Conoco and BP, with considerable experience in the European, African and Asian oil, gas and power sectors. He is the co-founder and CEO of Upland Resources Ltd.

Mr Staley was appointed on 9 April 2014. The board considers Mr Staley to be an independent director.

The Board, with Mr Staley abstaining, recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

4.1 General

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an Eligible Entity may seek Shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to allow it to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued capital (10% Placement Capacity).

The Company is an Eligible Entity.

If Shareholders approve Resolution 3, the number of Equity Securities the Eligible Entity may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out in section 4.2 below).

The effect of Resolution 3 will be to allow the Company to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of the Company's fully paid ordinary securities on issue under the 10% Placement Capacity during the period up to 12 months after the Meeting, without subsequent Shareholder approval and without using the Company's 15% annual placement capacity granted under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 3 is a special resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 3 for it to be passed.

4.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A came into effect on 1 August 2012 and enables an Eligible Entity to seek shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to issue Equity Securities in addition to those under the Eligible Entity's 15% annual placement capacity.

An Eligible Entity is one that, as at the date of the relevant annual general meeting:

(a) is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index; and

(b) has a maximum market capitalisation (excluding restricted securities and securities quoted on a deferred settlement basis) of $300,000,000.

The Company is an Eligible Entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $175,105,577 at 18 January 2017 (calculated by multiplying the number of shares on issue of 4,169,180,418 by the Company's closing share price on 18 January 2017 of $0.042).

Any Equity Securities issued must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted Equity Securities. The Company currently has 2 classes of Equity Securities on issue, being the Shares (ASX Code: 88E) and Quoted Options (ASX Code: 88EO).

The exact number of Equity Securities that the Company may issue under an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated according to the following formula:

Where:

A is the number of Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

D is 10%.

E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of holders of Ordinary Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.

4.3 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to this Resolution 3:

(a) Minimum Price

The minimum price at which the Equity Securities may be issued is 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 ASX trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

(b) Date of Issue

The Equity Securities may be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity commencing on the date of the Meeting and expiring on the first to occur of the following:

(c) Risk of voting dilution

Any issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue.

If Resolution 3 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Capacity, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below.

The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A(2), on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of Equity Securities on issue as at the date of this Notice.

The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 10% Placement Capacity.

\* The number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a pro-rata rights issue conversion of options or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

The table above uses the following assumptions:

1. There are currently 4,169,180,418 Shares on issue.

2. The issue price set out above is the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 18 January 2017.

3. The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity.

4. The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

5. The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity consists only of Shares. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities.

6. The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.

7. This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

8. The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.

9. The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Capacity, based on that Shareholder's holding at the date of the Meeting.

Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:

(d) Purpose of Issue under 10% Placement Capacity

The Company may issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for the following purposes:

The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A(4) and 3.10.5A upon issue of any Equity Securities.

(e) Allocation policy under the 10% Placement Capacity

The Company's allocation policy for the issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will be dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of the proposed placement(s).

The recipients of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been determined. However, the recipients of Equity Securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company.

The Company will determine the recipients at the time of the issue under the 10% Placement Capacity, having regard to the following factors:

Further, if the Company is successful in acquiring new resources, assets or investments, it is likely that the recipients under the 10% Placement Capacity will be vendors of the new resources, assets or investments.

(f) Previous Approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

The Company previously obtained approval from its Shareholders pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 24 April 2015 (Previous Approval).

During the 12 month period preceding the date of the Meeting, being on and from 9 March 2016 to 9 March 2017, the Company issued a total of 996,352,046 Shares and 159,500,000 Options which represents approximately 31% of the total diluted number of Equity Securities on issue in the Company on 9 March 2016 which was 3,724,315,774.

Further details of the issues of Equity Securities by the Company during the 12 month period preceding the date of the Meeting are set out in Schedule 1.

(g) Compliance with ASX Listing Rules 7.1A.4 and 3.10.5A

When the Company issues Equity Securities pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity, it must give to ASX:

4.4 Voting Exclusion

A voting exclusion statement is included in this Notice. As at the date of this Notice, the Company has not invited any existing Shareholder to participate in an issue of Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. Therefore, no existing Shareholders will be excluded from voting on this Resolution.

5.1 General

On 27 October 2016, the Company issued 275,000,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.04 per Share to raise $11,000,000 (Placement).

The Shares were issued pursuant to the Company's capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, and did not breach the ASX Listing Rules.

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of those Shares.

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.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1) those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

By ratifying this issue, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

5.2 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.5

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to the ratification the subject of 4:

(a) 275,000,000 Shares were issued;

(b) the Shares were issued at an issue price of $0.04 per share;

(c) the Shares issued were fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company's existing Shares;

8.1 General

The Company intends, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval to issue a total of 35,000,000 Options to Messrs Michael Evans, David Wall, Stephen Staley and Brent Villemarette (the Related Parties) under the Incentive Option Scheme (Scheme) approved by Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held 12 February 2015, in the proportions and on the terms and conditions set out below (Related Party Options).

Chapter 2E 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:

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

(b) give the benefit within 15 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.

In addition, ASX Listing Rule 10.14 also requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities under an employee incentive scheme to a director of the entity, an associate of the director, or a person whose relationship with the entity, director or associate of the director is, in ASX's opinion, such that approval should be obtained.

The issue of the Related Party Options to each of the Related Parties requires the Company to obtain Shareholder approval because:

(a) the issue of Options constitutes the giving of a financial benefit; and

(b) as Directors, Messrs Michael Evans, David Wall, Stephen Staley and Brent Villemarette are related parties of the Company.

Because it is proposed that Related Party Options be issued to all Directors, the Directors have been unable to form quorum to consider whether one of the exceptions set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act applies to the issue. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought for the issue of Related Party Options to the Directors.

8.2 Technical information required by Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.14

Pursuant to and in accordance with the requirements of sections 219 of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.15, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of Related Party Options to the Related Parties:

(a) the Related Parties are Messrs Michael Evans, David Wall, Stephen Staley and Brent Villemarette and they are Related Parties by virtue of being Directors;

(b) the maximum number of Related Party Options (being the nature of the financial benefit being provided) to be granted to the Related Parties (or their nominee) is:

(c) the Related Party Options will be granted to the Related Parties no later than 12 months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) and it is anticipated the Related Party Options will be issued on one date;

(d) the Related Party Options will be granted for nil cash consideration, accordingly no funds will be raised;

(e) the Company has previously issued the following Options under the Scheme:

(f) the terms and conditions of the Related Party Options are set out in Part A of Schedule 2;

(g) the value of the Related Party Options and the pricing methodology is set out in Part B of Schedule 2;

2. Mr Villemarette also received consulting fees of $51,385 which were paid to Villemarette Nominees Pty Ltd as trustee for the Villemarette Family Trust (an entity Mr Villemarette controls and a trust in which Mr Villemarette has an interest).

(j) if the Related Party Options granted to the Related Parties are exercised, a total of 35,000,000 Shares would be issued. This will increase the number of Shares on issue from 4,169,180,418 (being the total number of Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice and assuming no Options are exercised up till the date of the Meeting) to 4,204,180,418 with the effect that the shareholding of existing Shareholders would be diluted by an aggregate of 0.83%, comprising 0.47% by David Wall, 0.12% by Michael Evans, 0.12% by Stephen Staley and 0.12% by Brent Villemarette.

The market price for Shares during the term of the Related Party Options would normally determine whether or not the Related Party Options are exercised. If, at any time any of the Related Party Options are exercised and the Shares are trading on ASX at a price that is higher than the exercise price of the Related Party Options, there may be a perceived cost to the Company.

(k) the trading history of the Shares on ASX in the 12 months before the date of this Notice is set out below:

(l) the Board acknowledges the grant of Related Party Options to each Non-Executive Director is contrary to Recommendation 8.2 of The Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations with 2014 Amendments (3rd Edition) as published by The ASX Corporate Governance Council. However, the Board considers the grant of Related Party Options to each Non Executive Director reasonable in the circumstances for the following reasons:

(m) the primary purpose of the grant of the Related Party Options to the Related Parties is to provide a performance linked incentive component in the remuneration package for the Related Parties to motivate and reward the performance of the Related Parties in their respective roles as Directors;

(n) each of the Directors declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to the Resolution relating to the issue of Related Party Options to himself (or his nominee) due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that he is to be granted Related Party Options in the Company should the Resolution be passed. However, in respect of the Resolutions dealing with the issue of the Related Party Options to each of the other Directors, each of the Directors recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the reasons set out in paragraph 8.2(l);

(o) in forming their recommendations, each Director considered the experience of each other Director, the current market price of Shares, the current market practices when determining the number of Related Party Options to be granted as well as the exercise price and expiry date of those Related Party Options; and

(p) the Board is not aware of any other information that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to allow them to make a decision whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass Resolutions 7 to 10.

Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required in order to issue the Related Party Options to the Related Parties as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.14. Accordingly, the issue of Related Party Options to the Related Parties will not be included in the 15% calculation of the Company's annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

PART B OF SCHEDULE 2 - VALUATION OF OPTIONS

The Related Party Options to be issued to each Director pursuant to Resolutions 7 to 10 have been independently valued.  Using Hoadley Trading & Investments Tools and based on the assumptions set out below, the Related Party Options were ascribed the values noted below.

Notes:

1. Being the closing share price of the Company's Shares on 18 January 2017 (given the Relater Party Options are yet to be granted).

2. The Options are exercisable to a price that is a 43% premium to the volume weighted average price ('VWAP') of the shares of the Company as at the grant date. The VWAP is calculated based on the 15 days prior to the assumed grant date.

3. Determined based on the yields of Commonwealth bonds using a three-year bond, being the period which most closely correspond to the maximum life of the Related Party Options. The bond rate is taken as at the closing rate on the day prior to the valuation date. As the Related Party Options are yet to be granted, a rate of 1.95% as reported on 18 January 2017 (as disclosed by the Reserve Bank of Australia) has been used.

4. Taking into account the historical volatility of the Company's Shares.

5. Given there is no Company history of paying dividends and no dividends are expected to be declared or paid over the life of the Related Party Options.

6. The valuation noted above is not necessarily the market price that the Related Party Options could be traded at and is not automatically the market price for taxation purposes.

(a) Entitlement

The respective entitlements for the options, the subject of Resolutions 5 and 6 (Options) are as follows:

(i) Option 1 entitles the Optionholder to subscribe for 137,500,000 Shares (Resolution 5);

(ii) Option 2 entitles the Optionholder to subscribe for 22,000,000 Shares (Resolution 6); and

upon exercise of the Option (Option Shares) pursuant to a share subscription agreement entered into between the respective Optionholder and the Company (Share Subscription Agreement).

(b) Exercise Price

Subject to paragraphs Schedule 1(c) and (l), the amount payable upon exercise of the Options will be $0.055 in respect of Option 1 and $0.05 in respect of Option 2 (Exercise Price).

(c) Adjustment of Exercise Price

If there is a pro rata issue (except a bonus issue) to the holders of Shares within 12 months of the Issue Date, the Exercise Price of the Option may be reduced in accordance with the formula set out below (Adjustment):

O'=E [P - (S+D)]

N + 1

Where:

O' = the new exercise price of the Option.

O = the old Exercise Price of the Option.

E = the number of Shares into which one Option is exercisable. (Note: E is one unless the number has changed because of a bonus issue.)

P = the volume weighted average market price per security of the Shares, calculated over the 5 trading days ending on the day before the ex-rights date or ex-entitlements date.

S = the subscription price for a security under the pro rata issue.

D = the dividend due but not yet paid on the existing Shares (except those to be issued under the pro rata issue).

N = the number of securities with rights or entitlements that must be held to receive a right to one new security.

If there is a bonus issue to the holders of Shares within 12 months of the Issue Date, the number of securities over which the Option is exercisable may be increased by the number of securities which the holder of the Option would have received if the Option had been exercised before the record date for the bonus issue.

The Adjustment only applies if the aggregate amount raised by the Company under the Share Subscription Agreement and all other subscription agreements entered into contemporaneously with the Share Subscription Agreement is equal to or in excess of $8,000,000.

(d) Issue Date

The Options were issued on 27 October 2016 (Issue Date).

(e) Expiry Date

The Option will expire at 11:59 pm (Perth time) on that date which is five (5) years from the Issue Date (Expiry Date). An Option not exercised before the Expiry Date will automatically lapse on the Expiry Date.

(f) Exercise Period

The Option is exercisable at any time on or prior to the Expiry Date (Exercise Period).

(g) Notice of Exercise

Subject to paragraph Schedule 1(h), the Option may be exercised during the Exercise Period by notice in writing to the Company in the manner specified in the full terms and conditions of the Option (Notice of Exercise) and payment of the Exercise Price for the Option being exercised in cash or by electronic funds transfer of immediately available funds or bank cheque which has been cleared.

(h) Cashless Exercise

If the Shares become listed on an Eligible Market that is located in the United States (Listing) and six (6) months after the date of Listing a registration statement covering the resale of the Option Shares is not available for the resale of such Option Shares, the Optionholder may exercise the Option in whole or in part, and in lieu of making the cash payment and receipt of the Option Shares, and elect instead by notice given when the Exercise Notice is given to receive a net number of Shares in accordance with a formula set out in the full terms and conditions of the Option (Cashless Exercise).

(i) Exercise Date

A Notice of Exercise is only effective on and from the first trading day following the date of receipt of the Notice of Exercise and the date of receipt of the payment of the Exercise Price for the Option being exercised in cleared funds (Exercise Date) or in the event of a Cashless Exercise, by notifying the Company that the Option is being exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise.

(j) Timing of issue of Shares on exercise

On or before that date which is no later than the third trading day following the Exercise Date, the Company shall, subject to the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rules:

(i) issue and allot the Option Shares to the Optionholder, in accordance with the CHESS Rules to the Optionholder's custodian nominated CHESS account; and

(ii) issue a cleansing notice that complies with section 708A(5)(e) of the Corporations Act in respect of such Option Shares to the ASX Company announcements platform.

(k) Shares issued on exercise

Shares issued on exercise of the Option rank equally with the then issued shares of the Company.

(l) Reconstruction of capital

If at any time the issued capital of the Company is re-organised (including reconstruction, consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return of capital), the Option will be re-organised as required by the ASX Listing Rules, but in all other respects the terms of exercise will remain unchanged.

(m) Participation in new issues

There are no participation rights or entitlements inherent in the Option and Optionholders will not be entitled to participate in new issues of capital offered to Shareholders during the currency of the Option, except upon exercise of the Option.

(n) Change in exercise price

Other than as stated in paragraph (c) above, the Option does not confer the right to a change in Exercise Price or a change in the number of underlying securities over which the Option can be exercised.

(o) Transferability

The Option is transferable subject to any restriction or escrow arrangements imposed by ASX or under applicable securities laws.
