CAP-XX Limited

("CAP-XX" or the "Company")

Proposed Placing and Subscription to raise approximately £2.0 million by way of an accelerated bookbuild

and

Proposed Retail Offer to raise up to £0.2 million

CAP-XX Limited (AIM: CPX), a world leader in the design and manufacture of supercapacitors and energy management systems, today announces a proposed placing (the "Placing") and subscription to raise approximately £2.0 million (before expenses) through the issue of new ordinary shares of no par value ("Ordinary Shares"), at an issue price of 0.1 pence per Ordinary Share (the "Issue Price"), to be undertaken in two tranches. It is intended that the majority of the net proceeds of the Placing are to be applied towards general working capital requirements.

The Placing will be undertaken by way of an accelerated bookbuild (the "Bookbuild"), which will be launched immediately following this announcement (being, together with the Appendices hereto, the "Announcement") and will be made available to new and existing institutional and other investors. Allenby Capital Limited ("Allenby Capital") is acting as the sole bookrunner in respect of the Placing (the "Sole Bookrunner"). Further details of the Bookbuild and the background to and reasons for the Fundraise are provided below and in the Appendices of this Announcement.

Patrick Elliott, Steen Feldskov and Lars Stegmann (the "Participating Directors") have indicated their intention to subscribe for new Ordinary Shares in the Company at the Issue Price (the "Subscription"). In aggregate, director participation is expected to total £35,000.

In addition to the Placing and the Subscription, the Company announces that there will be a separate conditional retail offer via the REX Platform to raise up to £0.2 million (before expenses) at the Issue Price (the "Retail Offer", and together with the Placing and the Subscription, the "Fundraise"). This is to provide existing UK retail shareholders in the Company an opportunity to participate in the Fundraise. Those investors who subscribe for new Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Retail Offer (the "Retail Offer Shares") will do so pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Retail Offer contained in that announcement and the Retail Offer Shares will form part of the second tranche of the Fundraise. The Retail Offer is not subject to any minimum fundraising and will be open only to existing shareholders of the Company within the United Kingdom. The Retail Offer will be conditional on completion of the Placing and Subscription. A separate announcement will be made shortly by the Company regarding the Retail Offer and its terms.

Change of Registered Office

The Company also announces that it has changed its registered office address to be Unit 1, 13A Stanton Road, Seven Hills, NSW 2147, Australia.

The above summary should be read in conjunction with the full text of this Announcement. Attention is drawn to the Appendix containing the Terms and Conditions of the Placing (representing important information for potential placees only).

BACKGROUND TO AND REASONS FOR THE FUNDRAISE

It has been a difficult period for CAP-XX and its Shareholders.

The interim results announced on 1 February 2024 highlighted that product sales generated by the Company in the six months ended 31 December 2023 were 59 per cent. higher than in the same period in the prior half year. The announcement also stated that the sales order book as at 31 December 2023 was 33 per cent. higher than as at 1 January 2023. The Board believes this growth in the sales order book was achieved in the face of industry challenges in the passive electronic market. The Board also stated that the Company's adjusted EBITDA remained negative and the cash position was tight, with reserves of A$0.3 million.

On 13 March 2024, CAP-XX made a further announcement in which the Company stated that CAP-XX's working capital position continued to deteriorate and that the Board was exploring a number of additional fundraising options, including raising additional equity financing which was required by the end of March 2024.

The Fundraise, for which Shareholder approval is being sought, is necessary to avoid the Company being placed into administration.

Circumstances which led to the need for the Fundraise

There are two key factors which have contributed to the Company's deteriorating working capital position:

- The Company initiated patent infringement legal action that proved to be not only unsuccessful but much more expensive than predicted. In addition, CAP-XX was always advised by its US lawyers that the Company would not be responsible for certain costs of Maxwell in relation to the litigation. That advice proved incorrect, and the Company is required to pay some costs incurred by the other party; and

- Revenue and cash receipts for the first eight weeks of the current calendar year were lower than expected despite the encouraging growth in the order book.

The effect of these factors conspired to almost totally exhaust the Company's working capital, despite a drawdown on the Company's R&D facility, which is based on eligible expenditure that has been incurred in the financial year to date.

Actions taken by the Board

The Board has taken a number of actions to seek to address the Company's financial position:

· Legal cost exposure - the Company announced on 21 March 2024 that it had reached an agreement with Maxwell/Tesla to settle all outstanding matters related to the historic litigation by way of a series of payments that the Board considers are not material amounts in the context of CAP-XX;

· Revenue and cash receipts - these are now recovering, reflecting normal seasonal patterns; and

· CAP-XX's operating costs have been significantly reduced, further details of which are set out below.

Operational developments at CAP-XX

The Company appointed Lars Stegmann as its CEO on 11 May 2023.

Under Lars Stegmann's leadership, the CAP-XX team has set about completely re-engineering the business in all areas.

Firstly, CAP-XX is shifting from a 'build and they will come' mindset to one that has the customer as the focus. This approach is reflected in a complete change in the sales approach and the appointment of a range of distributors and sales representatives. This is very much a work-in-progress and there are more appointments and initiatives to come. The Board believes that the impact of these changes is already being reflected positively in the product revenue and order booking.

Secondly, costs have been rigorously scrutinised, with reductions of approximately A$750,000 per annum having been achieved to date. The Board believes there are potentially further cost reductions available, for example, in the areas of purchasing and improved factory production through operational improvements.

Thirdly, despite the cash constraints, the Company has continued its development of new products, albeit at a reduced pace. These include:

- DMH - 0.3 mm thin supercapacitors - scheduled to begin production in volume from May 2024;

- Surface Mount Device ("SMD") Supercapacitors - the development of this product is nearing completion, with optimisation trials underway. The Board believes surface mount technology is ideal for mass production as SMDs can be used in automatic pick and place machines and can withstand reflow soldering. The Board is optimistic, based on its understanding of the market, about potential order volumes for this product, though these will be subject to customary trial and design-in times of each customer; and

- 3V supercapacitors - CAP-XX has these available and is waiting for a number of customers to complete their trial and design-in phases.

The Board expects these new products to have a positive impact on CAP-XX over the next 12 to 36 months and offer the potential for future revenue growth. However, this will take some time to become evident as customers require time for product evaluation and to design CAP-XX's supercapacitors into their end products. Much of these normal time lags between product release and orders of volume is beyond the Company's control. However, the Board believes that the change in CAP-XX's sales and distribution approach means that the Company is closer to its customers and therefore better understands their requirements and timelines.

Finally, the Company's previously disclosed joint venture with Ionic Industries to develop their graphene technology for the supercapacitor and battery industries continues. There are further technical collaborations under discussion that are aimed at further enhancing the Company's innovation roadmap. The Board believes that these collaborations are low cash cost ways of leveraging the Company's strengths in energy storage technologies.

The Company looks forward to providing updates in relation these developments in the coming months.

Sales pipeline

CAP-XX's total net sales pipeline currently stands at approximately US$9.2 million. This pipeline has been calculated by reviewing each project the Company is currently pursuing to arrive at a total gross sales pipeline and applying a probability of success from initial enquiry (0%) through to mass production (100%) in relation to each project. The average probability of success for the entire gross sales pipeline is approximately 32 per cent. though there can be no guarantee that this level will occur. The Board believes this analysis is more reflective of possible order intake in a one to three-year timeframe. This potential sales pipeline does not include any volume potential associated with the new products highlighted above, albeit there are a number of customers that are evaluating samples in relation to these. The trend in the sales pipeline leads to the Board being optimistic for the potential future growth in product revenues.

Use of proceeds

It is intended that the proceeds from the Fundraise will be used to stabilise the Company's financial position and provide working capital for CAP-XX. The Company will use the proceeds in the following main areas:

i) to continue the expansion of its sales representative and distribution network; and

ii) to commence the market introduction of the new products highlighted above, in which the vast bulk of the development costs have already been incurred. This includes some final costs to bring the DMH production line onstream.

Apart from the final settlement of legal costs associated with the Maxwell litigation, which the Board does not consider material, the only payments for legal costs will be normal ongoing corporate legal expenses, including, for example, those associated with applications for patents.

Importance of the Placing and the vote at the General Meeting

In order for Second Admission to proceed, among other things, Shareholders will need to approve the Resolution to be put to Shareholders at a General Meeting. If the Resolution is not approved by Shareholders, the Second Placing Shares, the Retail Offer Shares and the Subscription Shares will not be able to be issued. If that were to occur, the Company would receive significantly less funding than anticipated from the Fundraise and the Board believes they would have little alternative but to put CAP-XX into administration.

Details of the Fundraise

The Placing will be conducted by way of an accelerated bookbuild (the "Bookbuild") which will be launched immediately upon the publication of this announcement (being, together with the Appendices hereto, the "Announcement") and will be made available to new and existing institutional investors.

Allenby Capital is acting as nominated adviser and Sole Bookrunner to the Company in respect of the Placing.

The Placing is subject to the Terms and Conditions set out in Appendix I to this Announcement. The Sole Bookrunner will commence the Bookbuild immediately following the release of this Announcement. The final number of Placing Shares to be placed at the Issue Price will be decided following completion of the Bookbuild. The book will open with immediate effect following this Announcement. The timing of the closing of the book and allocations are at the absolute discretion of the Sole Bookrunner. Details of the number of Placing Shares to be issued will be announced as soon as practicable after the close of the Bookbuild.

The Placing Shares will be issued in two separate tranches. The first tranche will make use of the authority granted to the Directors in accordance with the Company's dilution policy, as approved by shareholders at the Company's annual general meeting held in 2023, in order to issue up to 103,854,880 Placing Shares (the "First Placing Shares") on a non-pre-emptive basis. The second tranche, which will be 1,896,145,120 Placing Shares (the "Second Placing Shares") which are to be issued alongside the Subscription Shares and the Retail Offer Shares, will be conditional upon, inter alia, the passing of the Resolution to be put to Shareholders at a General Meeting, expected to be held at the offices of CAP-XX Limited at Unit 1/13A Stanton Road, Seven Hills, Australia at 5 p.m. AEST, 8 a.m. on 23 April 2024.

The New Ordinary Shares, when issued, will be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the Company's then existing Ordinary Shares, including the right to receive dividends and other distributions declared on or after the date of issue.

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is anticipated that First Admission will become effective, and that dealings in the First Placing Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m. on 28 March 2024. It is anticipated that Second Admission will become effective, and that dealings in the Second Placing Shares, the Subscription Shares and the Retail Offer Shares will commence, at 8.00 a.m. on 25 April 2024. The Placing is conditional, so far as concerns the First Placing Shares upon, inter alia, First Admission becoming effective and the placing agreement entered into dated 21 March 2024 between the Company and Allenby Capital (the "Placing Agreement") not being terminated in accordance with its terms prior to First Admission. The Placing is conditional, so far as concerns the Second Placing Shares upon, inter alia, the passing of the Resolution, Second Admission becoming effective, and the Placing Agreement not being terminated in accordance with its terms.

The first tranche of the Placing is not conditional on issue of the Second Placing Shares, the Subscription Shares or the Retail Offer Shares. Should the Resolution not be passed at the General Meeting, the second tranche of the Placing, the Subscription and the Retail Offer will not proceed. The first tranche of the Placing will not be affected by any or all of the Second Placing, the Subscription and Retail Offer failing to complete for any reason.

In relation to its role in the Fundraise, Allenby Capital will be receiving 200,000,000 warrants to subscribe for an equivalent number of Ordinary Shares. These warrants will have an exercise price of 0.15 pence, being a 50 per cent. premium to the Placing Price and will be capable of being exercised until the date falling five years after the day on which Second Admission occurs.

Director participation

CAP-XX is intending to enter into subscription agreements with Patrick Elliott (Non-executive Chairman), Lars Stegmann (CEO) and Steen Feldskov (Non-executive Director) to subscribe for 21,500,000, 8,500,000 and 5,000,000 new Ordinary Shares respectively at the Issue Price.

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the 35,000,000 new Ordinary Shares being subscribed for by Patrick Elliott, Lars Stegmann and Steen Feldskov (together, the "Subscription Shares") to be admitted to trading on AIM. The Subscription Shares will form part of the second tranche, and it is anticipated that Second Admission will become effective, and that dealings in the Subscription Shares will commence, at 8.00 a.m. on 25 April 2024.

The Subscription Shares will be conditional upon, inter alia, the passing of the Resolution to be put to Shareholders at a General Meeting, expected to be held at the offices of CAP-XX Limited at Unit 1/13A Stanton Road, Seven Hills, Australia at 5 p.m. AEST, 8 a.m. on 23 April 2024.

The Subscription Shares, when issued, will be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the Company's then existing Ordinary Shares, including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared on or after the date of issue.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Placing Agreement between the Company and Allenby Capital is terminated prior to the First Admission then the Placing will not occur. If the Placing Agreement is terminated following First Admission but prior to Second Admission, then Second Admission will not occur, but Placees' obligations will remain fully effective in respect of the first tranche of placing shares and First Admission.

Appendix I sets out further information relating to the Bookbuild and the terms and conditions of the Placing. Persons who choose to participate in the Placing, by making an oral, electronic or written offer to subscribe for Placing Shares, will be deemed to have read and understood this Announcement in its entirety (including the Appendices) and to be making such offer on the terms and subject to the conditions herein, and to be providing the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgements and undertakings contained in Appendix I.

A circular convening a General Meeting of the Company's Shareholders is expected to be posted in due course and will provide details of, and the background to, the Placing, and sets out the reasons why the Board believes that the Placing is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders and to seek Shareholder approval to the passing of the Resolution at the forthcoming General Meeting.

UK Product Governance Requirements

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements of Chapter 3 of the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook (the "UK Product Governance Requirements"), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the UK Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the Placing Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that such Placing Shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all permitted distribution channels (the "Target Market Assessment"). Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, distributors should note that: the price of the Placing Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the Placing Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the Placing Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Placing. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, the Bookrunners will only procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of Chapters 9A or 10A, respectively, of the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the Placing Shares. Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Placing Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.

If a person indicates to Allenby Capital that it wishes to participate in the Placing by making an oral or written offer to acquire Placing Shares (each such person, a "Placee") it will be deemed to have read and understood these terms and conditions and the Announcement of which they form a part in their entirety and to be making such offer on the terms and conditions, and to be providing the acknowledgements, confirmations, undertakings, representations, warranties, indemnities, and agreements, contained in these terms and conditions as deemed to be made by Placees. In particular, each such Placee represents, warrants and acknowledges that it is a Relevant Person and undertakes that it will acquire, hold, manage and dispose of any of the Placing Shares that are allocated to it for the purposes of its business only. Further, each such Placee represents, warrants and agrees that if it is a financial intermediary, as that term is used in Article 5(1) of the UK Prospectus Regulation, that the Placing Shares acquired by and/or subscribed for by it in the Placing will not be acquired on a non-discretionary basis on behalf of, nor will they be acquired with a view to their offer or resale to, persons in circumstances which may give rise to an offer of securities to the public other than an offer or resale to persons who, if in a member state of the EEA, are qualified investors within the meaning of Article 2(e) of the EU Prospectus Regulation or if in the United Kingdom, are qualified investors within the meaning of Article 2(e) of the UK Prospectus Regulation, or in circumstances in which the prior consent of the Sole Bookrunner has been given to each such proposed offer or resale. These terms and conditions do not constitute an offer to sell or issue or the invitation or solicitation of an offer to buy or acquire Placing Shares.

The distribution of these terms and conditions and the offer and/or placing of Placing Shares in certain other jurisdictions may be restricted by law. No action has been taken by Allenby Capital or the Company that would permit an offer of the Placing Shares or possession or distribution of these terms and conditions or any other offering or publicity material relating to the Placing Shares in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required, save as mentioned above. Persons into whose possession these terms and conditions come are required by Allenby Capital and the Company to inform themselves about and to observe any such restrictions.

No prospectus or other offering document has been or will be submitted to be approved by the UK Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") in relation to the Placing or the Placing Shares and each Placee's commitment will be made solely on the basis of the information set out in this Announcement. Each Placee, by participating in the Placing, agrees that it has neither received nor relied on any other information, representation, warranty or statement made by or on behalf of Allenby Capital or the Company and neither Allenby Capital, the Company, nor any person acting on such person's behalf nor any of their respective affiliates has or shall have liability for any Placee's decision to accept this invitation to participate in the Placing based on any other information, representation, warranty or statement.

Accordingly, save to the extent permitted by law, no liability whatsoever is accepted by Allenby Capital or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or affiliates or any other person for any loss howsoever arising, directly or indirectly, from any use of this Announcement or such information or opinions contained herein.

All offers of the Placing Shares will be made pursuant to an exemption under the EU Prospectus Regulation and/or the UK Prospectus Regulation from the requirement to produce a prospectus.

These terms and conditions do not constitute or form part of, and should not be construed as, any offer or invitation to sell or issue, or any solicitation of any offer to purchase or subscribe for, any Placing Shares or any other securities or an inducement to enter into investment activity, nor shall these terms and conditions (or any part of them), nor the fact of their distribution, form the basis of, or be relied on in connection with, any investment activity.

UK Product Governance Requirements

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements of Chapter 3 of the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook (the "UK Product Governance Requirements") and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the UK Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the Placing Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that the Placing Shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of (a) retail investors, (b) investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and (c) eligible counterparties, each as defined in UK Product Governance Requirements; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by UK Product Governance Requirements (the "UK Target Market Assessment").

Notwithstanding the UK Target Market Assessment, distributors should note that: the price of the Placing Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the Placing Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the Placing Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom.

The UK Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Placing. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the UK Target Market Assessment, Allenby Capital is only procuring investors in the United Kingdom which meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

For the avoidance of doubt, the UK Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of Chapter 9A or 10A respectively of the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to, the Placing Shares. Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Placing Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.

EU Product Governance Requirements

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within: (a) EU Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in financial instruments, as amended ("MiFID II"); (b) Articles 9 and 10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 supplementing MiFID II; and (c) local implementing measures (together, the "EU Product Governance Requirements"), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the EU Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the Placing Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that the Placing Shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of: (a) retail investors, (b) investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and (c) eligible counterparties (each as defined in MiFID II); and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II (the "EU Target Market Assessment").

Notwithstanding the EU Target Market Assessment, distributors should note that: the price of the Placing Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the Placing Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the Placing Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom.

The EU Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Placing. In all circumstances Allenby Capital will only procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

For the avoidance of doubt, the EU Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID II; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the Placing Shares. Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Placing Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.

Proposed Placing of Ordinary Shares

Allenby Capital has entered into the Placing Agreement with the Company pursuant to which, on the terms and subject to the conditions set out in such Placing Agreement, Allenby Capital as agents for and on behalf of the Company, have agreed to use their reasonable endeavours to procure Placees for the Placing Shares at the Issue Price.

Placees are referred to these terms and conditions and this Announcement containing details of, inter alia, the Placing. These terms and conditions and this Announcement have been prepared and issued by the Company, and are the sole responsibility of the Company.

The Placing Shares will, when issued and fully paid, be identical to, and rank pari passu with, the existing Ordinary Shares, including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid on the existing Ordinary Shares after their admission to trading on AIM.

Applications for admission to trading

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the Placing Shares to be issued under the Placing to be admitted to trading on AIM.

It is expected that First Admission will take place on or before 8.00 a.m. on 28 March 2024 and that dealings in the First Placing Shares on AIM will commence at the same time. Subject to the conditions below being satisfied, it is expected that Second Admission, including the admission of the Second Placing Shares, will become effective on or around 8.00 a.m. on 25 April 2024 and that dealings in the Second Placing Shares on AIM will commence at the same time.

Bookbuild of the Placing

Commencing today, Allenby Capital will be conducting an accelerated bookbuild (the "Bookbuild") to determine demand for participation in the Placing. Allenby Capital will seek to procure Placees as agents for the Company as part of this Bookbuild. These terms and conditions give details of the terms and conditions of, and the mechanics of participation in, the Placing.

Principal terms of the Bookbuild

(a) By participating in the Placing, Placees will be deemed to have read and understood this Announcement and these terms and conditions in their entirety and to be participating and making an offer for any Placing Shares on these terms and conditions, and to be providing the acknowledgements, confirmations, undertakings, representations, warranties, indemnities, and agreements, contained in these terms and conditions.

(b) Allenby Capital is arranging the Placing as agents of the Company.

(c) The Bookbuild will establish the number of Placing Shares to be issued and the aggregate proceeds to be raised through the Placing, which will be agreed between Allenby Capital and the Company following completion of the Bookbuild. The number of Placing Shares to be issued will be announced through the Placing Results Announcement (as defined below) following the completion of the Bookbuild.

(d) Participation in the Placing will only be available to persons who are Relevant Persons and who may lawfully be and are invited to participate by Allenby Capital. Allenby Capital (in their independent and individual capacity) and their affiliates are entitled to offer to subscribe for Placing Shares as principals in the Bookbuild.

(e) Any offer to subscribe for Placing Shares should state the aggregate number of Placing Shares which the Placee wishes to acquire. The Issue Price will be payable by the Placees in respect of the Placing Shares allocated to them.

(f) The Bookbuild is expected to close no later than 8.00 a.m. on 22 March 2024 but may close earlier or later, at the discretion of Allenby Capital and the Company. The timing of the closing of the books and the allocation of the Placing Shares will be agreed between Allenby Capital and the Company following completion of the Bookbuild (the "Allocation Policy"). Allenby Capital may, in agreement with the Company, accept offers to subscribe for Placing Shares that are received after the Bookbuild has closed. An offer to subscribe for Placing Shares in the Bookbuild will be made on the basis of these terms and conditions and will be legally binding on the Placee by which, or on behalf of which, it is made and will not be capable of variation or revocation after the close of the Bookbuild.

(g) Subject to paragraph (e) above, Allenby Capital reserve the right including with or at the instruction of the Company not to accept an offer to subscribe for Placing Shares, either in whole or in part, on the basis of the Allocation Policy and may scale down any offer to subscribe for Placing Shares for this purpose.

(h) If successful, each Placee's allocation will be confirmed to it by Allenby Capital following the close of the Bookbuild. Oral or written confirmation (at Allenby Capital 's discretion) from Allenby Capital to such Placee confirming its allocation will constitute a legally binding commitment upon such Placee, in favour of Allenby Capital and the Company to acquire the number of Placing Shares allocated to it on the terms and conditions set out herein. Each Placee will have an immediate, separate, irrevocable and binding obligation, owed to the Company, to pay to Allenby Capital (or as Allenby Capital may direct) as agent for the Company in cleared funds an amount equal to the product of the Issue Price and the number of Placing Shares which such Placee has agreed to acquire.

(i) The Company will make a further announcement following the close of the Bookbuild detailing the number of Placing Shares to be issued (the "Placing Results Announcement"). It is expected that such Placing Results Announcement will be made as soon as practicable after the close of the Bookbuild.

(j) Subject to paragraphs (g) and (h) above, Allenby Capital reserve the right not to accept offers to subscribe for Placing Shares or to accept such offers, either in whole or in part, on the basis of allocations determined at their discretion and may scale down any offers as they may determine, subject to agreement with the Company. The acceptance of offers to subscribe for Placing Shares shall be at Allenby Capital's absolute discretion, subject only to agreement with the Company.

(k) Irrespective of the time at which a Placee's allocation(s) pursuant to the Placing is/are confirmed, settlement for all Placing Shares to be acquired pursuant to the Placing will be required to be made at the time specified, on the basis explained, below under the paragraph entitled "Registration and Settlement".

(l) No commissions are payable to Placees in respect of the Placing.

(m) By participating in the Bookbuild, each Placee agrees that its rights and obligations in respect of the Placing will terminate only in the circumstances described below and will not be capable of rescission or termination by the Placee. All obligations under the Placing will be subject to the fulfilment of the conditions referred to below under the paragraphs entitled "Conditions of the Placing" and "Termination of the Placing Agreement".

(n) For the avoidance of doubt, if the Placing Agreement between the Company and Allenby Capital is terminated prior to First Admission then the Placing will not occur. If the Placing Agreement is terminated following First Admission but prior to Second Admission then Second Admission will not occur but Placees' obligations will remain fully effective in respect of the First Placing Shares and First Admission.

Conditions of the Placing

The obligations of Allenby Capital under the Placing Agreement in relation to the First Placing Shares are conditional upon, inter alia:

(a) the Company having complied with its obligations under the Placing Agreement (to the extent that such obligations fall to be performed prior to First Admission); and

(b) First Admission having occurred at 8.00 a.m. on 28 March 2024 or such later time and/or date as the Company and Allenby Capital may agree, but in any event not later than 8.00 a.m. on 20 May 2024.

The obligations of Allenby Capital under the Placing Agreement in relation to the Second Placing Shares, are conditional upon, inter alia:

a) First Admission having occurred at 8.00 a.m. on 28 March 2024 or such later time and/or date as the Company and Allenby Capital may agree, but in any event not later than 8.00 a.m. on 20 May 2024;

b) the Circular having been posted and the passing, without amendment, of the Resolution at the General Meeting before 5.00 p.m. on 23 April 2024 (AEST) (or such later time and/or date as the Company and Allenby Capital may agree);

c) the Company complying with its obligations under the Placing Agreement to the extent that they fall to be performed before Second Admission; and

e) Second Admission having become effective at or before 8.00 a.m. on 25 April 2024 or such later time and/or date as the Company and Allenby Capital may agree (but in any event no later than 8.00 a.m. on 20 May 2024),

(all conditions to the obligations of Allenby Capital included in the Placing Agreement being together, the "Conditions").

If (i) any of the Conditions contained in the Placing Agreement in relation to the First Placing Shares are not fulfilled or waived by Allenby Capital by the respective time or date where specified, (ii) any of such Conditions becomes incapable of being fulfilled or (iii) the Placing Agreement is terminated in the circumstances specified below prior to First Admission, the Placing will not proceed and each Placee's rights and obligations hereunder in relation to all the Placing Shares shall cease and terminate at such time, all monies received from a Placee pursuant to the Placing shall be returned to such Placee without interest, at the risk of the relevant Placee and each Placee agrees that no claim can be made by the Placee in respect thereof.

If First Admission takes place but (i) any of the Conditions contained in the Placing Agreement in relation to the Second Placing Shares are not fulfilled or waived by Allenby Capital by the respective time or date where specified, (ii) any of such Conditions becomes incapable of being fulfilled or (iii) the Placing Agreement is terminated in the circumstances specified below following First Admission but prior to Second Admission, the Second Placing will not proceed and the Placee's rights and obligations hereunder in relation to the Second Placing Shares shall cease and terminate at such time, all monies received from a Placee pursuant to the Second Placing shall be returned to such Placee without interest, at the risk of the relevant Placee and each Placee agrees that no claim can be made by the Placee in respect thereof (but Placees' obligations will remain fully effective in respect of the First Placing Shares and First Admission).

Allenby Capital, at their discretion and upon such terms as they think fit, may waive compliance by the Company with the whole or any part of any of the Company's obligations in relation to the Conditions in the Placing Agreement. Any such extension or waiver will not affect Placees' commitments as set out in this Announcement.

Neither Allenby Capital nor the Company nor any other person shall have any liability to any Placee (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise) in respect of any decision they may make as to whether or not to waive or to extend the time and/or the date for the satisfaction of any condition to the Placing nor for any decision they may make as to the satisfaction of any condition or in respect of the Placing generally, and by participating in the Placing each Placee agrees that any such decision is within the absolute discretion of Allenby Capital.

Termination of the Placing Agreement

Allenby Capital is entitled at any time before Admission, to terminate the Placing Agreement in relation to its obligations in respect of the Placing Shares by giving notice to the Company if, amongst other things:

(a) the Company fails to comply with any of its obligations under the Placing Agreement; or

(b) any statement contained in this Announcement is, has become or has been discovered to have been untrue, incorrect or misleading at the date of such document in any material respect; or any matter which is material has arisen which would, if the First Placing or as applicable the Second Placing were made at that time, constitute an omission therefrom; or

(c) Allenby Capital becomes aware of any circumstance which results in a breach of the warranties given by the Company in the Placing Agreement when given at the date of the Placing Agreement or which results in or might result in a breach of any of such warranties when deemed repeated under the Placing Agreement, by reference to the circumstances prevailing from time to time; or

(d) it comes to the notice of Allenby Capital that a matter has arisen which is likely to give rise to a claim under any of the indemnities given by the Company under the Placing Agreement; or

(e) an event or other matter (including, without limitation, any change or development in economic, financial, political, diplomatic or other market conditions or any change in any government regulation) has occurred or is likely to occur which, in Allenby Capital's reasonable opinion, is (or will be if it occurs) likely materially and prejudicially to affect the financial position or the business or prospects of the Company or otherwise makes it impractical or inadvisable for Allenby Capital to perform its obligations under the Placing Agreement (and for these purposes "market conditions" includes conditions affecting securities in the business sector in which the Company operates and conditions affecting securities generally and a material disruption in commercial banking services).

If Allenby Capital terminates its obligations under the Placing Agreement in accordance with its terms, the rights and obligations of each Placee procured by Allenby Capital in respect of the Placing as described in this Announcement shall cease and terminate at such time, all monies received from such Placees pursuant to the Placing shall be returned to such Placees without interest, at the risk of the relevant Placees, and each such Placee agrees that no claim can be made by or on behalf of the Placee (or any person on whose behalf the Placee is acting) in respect thereof, save that if the Placing Agreement is terminated following First Admission but prior to Second Admission then Second Admission will not occur but such Placees' obligations will remain fully effective in respect of the First Placing Shares and First Admission.

Placing Procedure

Placees shall acquire the Placing Shares to be issued pursuant to the Placing and any allocation of the Placing Shares to be issued pursuant to the Placing will be notified to them on or around 21 March 2024 (or such other time and/or date as the Company and Allenby Capital may agree).

Payment in full for any Placing Shares so allocated in respect of the Placing at the Issue Price must be made by no later than First Admission (in the case of First Placing Shares) or Second Admission (in the case of Second Placing Shares) (or in either case such other date as shall be notified to each Placee by Allenby Capital). Allenby Capital or the Company will notify Placees if any of the dates in these terms and conditions should change.

Registration and Settlement

Settlement of transactions in the relevant Placing Shares following Admission will take place within the CREST system, by the issue and delivery of Depositary Interests, subject to certain exceptions. Allenby Capital and the Company reserve the right to require settlement for, and delivery of, the Placing Shares to Placees by such other means that they deem necessary if delivery or settlement is not possible within the CREST system within the timetable set out in this Announcement or would not be consistent with the regulatory requirements in the Placee's jurisdiction. Each Placee will be deemed to agree that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery and payment is completed in accordance with either the standing CREST or certificated settlement instructions which they have in place with Allenby Capital.

Settlement of the First Placing Shares will be on a delivery versus payment basis and settlement is expected to take place on or around 28 March 2024. Settlement of the Second Placing Shares will be on a delivery versus payment basis and settlement is expected to take place on or around 25 April 2024. Interest is chargeable daily on payments to the extent that value is received after the due date from Placees at the rate of 2 percentage points above the prevailing Sterling Overnight Index Average. Each Placee is deemed to agree that if it does not comply with these obligations, Allenby Capital may sell any or all of the Placing Shares allocated to it on its behalf and retain from the proceeds, for its own account and benefit, an amount equal to the aggregate amount owed by the Placee plus any interest due. By communicating an offer for Placing Shares, each Placee confers on Allenby Capital all such authorities and powers necessary to carry out any such sale and agrees to ratify and confirm all actions which Allenby Capital lawfully takes in pursuance of such sale. The relevant Placee will, however, remain liable for any shortfall below the aggregate amount owed by it and may be required to bear any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax (together with any interest or penalties) which may arise upon any transaction in the Placing Shares on such Placee's behalf.

Please also note that the agreement to allot and issue Placing Shares to Placees (or the persons for whom Placees are contracting as agent) free of stamp duty and stamp duty reserve tax in the UK relates only to their allotment and issue to Placees, or such persons as they nominate as their agents, direct from the Company for the Placing Shares in question. Such agreement assumes that such Placing Shares are not being acquired in connection with arrangements to issue depositary receipts or to transfer such Placing Shares into a clearance service. If there were any such arrangements, or the settlement related to other dealing in such Placing Shares, stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax may be payable, for which none of the Company nor Allenby Capital would be responsible and Placees shall indemnify the Company and Allenby Capital on an after-tax basis for any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax paid by them in respect of any such arrangements or dealings. Furthermore, each Placee agrees to indemnify on an after-tax basis and hold Allenby Capital and/or the Company and their respective affiliates harmless from any and all interest, fines or penalties in relation to stamp duty, stamp duty reserve tax and all other similar duties or taxes to the extent that such interest, fines or penalties arise from the unreasonable default or delay of that Placee or its agent. If this is the case, it would be sensible for Placees to take their own advice and they should notify Allenby Capital accordingly. In addition, Placees should note that they will be liable for any capital duty, stamp duty and all other stamp, issue, securities, transfer, registration, documentary or other duties or taxes (including any interest, fines or penalties relating thereto) payable outside the UK by them or any other person on the acquisition by them of any Placing Shares or the agreement by them to acquire any Placing Shares.

Miscellaneous

The Company reserves the right to treat as invalid any application or purported application for Placing Shares that appears to the Company or its agents to have been executed, effected or dispatched from the United States or any other Excluded Territory or in a manner that may involve a breach of the laws or regulations of any jurisdiction or if the Company or its agents believe that the same may violate applicable legal or regulatory requirements or if it provides an address for delivery of the share certificates of Placing Shares in the United States, any other Excluded Territory, or any other jurisdiction outside the United Kingdom in which it would be unlawful to deliver such share certificates.

When a Placee or person acting on behalf of the Placee is dealing with Allenby Capital, any money held in an account with Allenby Capital on behalf of the Placee and/or any person acting on behalf of the Placee will not be treated as client money within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the FCA made under the FSMA. The Placee acknowledges that the money will not be subject to the protections conferred by the client money rules; as a consequence, this money will not be segregated from Allenby Capital's money in accordance with the client money rules and will be used by Allenby Capital in the course of their own business; and the Placee will rank only as a general creditor of Allenby Capital.

Times

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to time and dates are to London time and dates. All times and dates in these terms and conditions may be subject to amendment. Allenby Capital will notify Placees and any persons acting on behalf of the Placees of any changes.
