Further details of the Acquisition are set out in the notification released by the Company on 21 February 2022.

On 14 February 2022, the Company announced that it had successfully completed an oversubscribed placing to raise A$32 million, through the issue of 914,285,714 fully paid ordinary shares in the Company (the "Placing Shares") at an issue price of A$0.035 (equivalent to £0.018) per Placing Share (the "Placing Price").  The Company confirms that it has today issued a further 4,365,079 fully paid ordinary shares in connection with the Placing (the "Additional Placing Shares"), at the Placing Price, to raise additional proceeds of A$152,778.

Following the issue of the Consideration Shares, Placing Shares and Additional Placing Shares, which rank pari passu to the existing ordinary shares in the Company, the Company has a total of 15,885,207,406 ordinary shares in issue, all of which have voting rights. The figure of 15,885,207,406 ordinary shares may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or change their interest in, the Company.
