NEWS RELEASE | 10 September 2024

Transformational Acquisition of Havieron and Telfer

Underwritten US$325 million Placing and Proposed Retail Offer
of up to ~US$9 million

Publication of AIM Admission Document and Notice of General Meeting

Greatland Gold plc (AIM:GGP) (Greatland or the Company) and certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries have entered into a binding agreement with certain Newmont Corporation subsidiaries (Newmont) to acquire, subject to certain conditions being satisfied, a 70% ownership interest in the Havieron gold-copper project (Havieron) (consolidating Greatland's ownership of Havieron to 100%), 100% ownership of the Telfer gold-copper mine (Telfer), and other related interests in assets in the Paterson region (together, the Target Assets) (the Acquisition).

The Company has agreed to acquire the Target Assets for total consideration and debt repayment of up to US$475 million (before adjustments), comprising:

§ US$207.5 million cash, including US$155.1 million Acquisition consideration (subject to certain adjustments) and a US$52.4 million repayment of the outstanding Havieron joint venture loan;

§ US$167.5 million in the form of 2,669,182,291 new Greatland shares to be issued to Newmont at the Issue Price (as defined below); and

§ up to US$100 million in deferred cash consideration.

Completion of the Acquisition is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent described in the "Further Information" section at the end of this announcement. Completion of the Acquisition is targeted to occur during Q4 2024.

The Company has published an admission document in relation to the Acquisition and Readmission (as defined below) (the Admission Document) that is available on the Company's website at https://greatlandgold.com/investors/regulatory-news/ to persons within permitted jurisdictions.

The Company has therefore requested the restoration of trading in the Company's securities on AIM, which is expected to take place at 7.30 am, 11 September 2024

Transaction rationale

The acquisition of Havieron and Telfer is a highly accretive and strategically compelling transaction that has the potential to deliver material value to Greatland's shareholders.

As the discoverer of Havieron and an existing joint venture owner, Greatland's team has an unrivalled knowledge of the project. Consolidation of 100% ownership of Havieron and the acquisition of Telfer provides Greatland the opportunity to control the integration and optimisation of the combined assets, with the objective of creating a generational Australian gold-copper mining complex.

Key highlights include:

§ Highly accretive acquisition: 1.4x accretion on an attributable Mineral Resources per share of the enlarged Greatland group (the Enlarged Group).

§ Havieron: Havieron is a world class gold-copper project with a Mineral Resource of 8.4Moz gold equivalent metal content. The independently reviewed base case (the Greatland Base Case), set out in the Competent Person's Report in the Admission Document, estimates a 2.8Mtpa mining operation with average annual production of 258koz gold equivalent at a lowest quartile all-in sustaining cost (AISC) globally of US$818/oz in steady state (first 15 years), with a 20-year total mine life. The Greatland Base Case will be refined and optimisation opportunities will be assessed in a feasibility study targeted to be completed within 12 months from Acquisition Completion, including potential mining throughput expansion utilising a bulk ore handling solution.

§ Telfer production: The Greatland Base Case includes the high confidence 15-month initial Telfer mine plan, as set out in the Competent Person's Report in the Admission Document, and such plan includes total estimated production of 426koz gold equivalent at an estimated AISC of US$1,454/oz from the restart of processing operations at Telfer (expected to occur in late September or October), which has the potential to generate significant near-term cash flow for the Company from Acquisition Completion. In parallel, a number of additional potential Telfer ore sources have already been drill tested and will be assessed with a view to extending the current Telfer mine life.

§ Consolidation of mine, infrastructure and control: Telfer infrastructure substantially de-risks Havieron's development and provides expansion optionality. Acquisition of 100% ownership of the Target Assets gives Greatland the opportunity to optimise and develop an integrated Telfer-Havieron mining and processing operation.

§ Alignment between Greatland and Newmont: Newmont is expected to hold up to 20.4% of the Enlarged Group, with an initial 12 month voluntary lock-in, a further 12 month orderly market arrangement and a relationship agreement in place to affirm alignment. Up to US$100 million of the Acquisition consideration is deferred until Havieron commences commercial production and is also subject to a gold price hurdle. Realisation of any deferred cash consideration is linked to a successful operational scenario, demonstrating Newmont's support of Greatland's stewardship of Havieron and Telfer.

§ Clear pathway to fully fund Havieron development: Greatland has executed a non-legally binding Bank Debt Letter of Support for A$750 million in proposed banking facilities for the development of Havieron, with Tier-1 lenders ANZ, HSBC and ING Bank. Combined with working capital from the Equity Raising (as defined below) and expected cash flow generation from Telfer, the Company considers there is a clear and non-dilutive pathway to the Havieron development being fully funded.

§ Upside potential: Greatland considers that there are significant upside opportunities as a result of the Acquisition, including potential extension of the current Telfer mine plan, optimisation of Havieron throughput potential and Telfer processing capacity, supplementation of Havieron ore with Telfer ore, and a potential regional 'hub & spoke' strategy enabled by Telfer infrastructure.

§ Underwritten, cornerstone supported equity raising: Approximately US$325 million institutional placing is underwritten by Canaccord Genuity Limited (the Placing Agent or the Bookrunner), with support of up to US$100 million by Wyloo Consolidated Investments Pty Ltd (Wyloo).

Following completion of the Acquisition, the operating strategy for the Enlarged Group is to renew and develop an integrated Telfer-Havieron mining and processing operation, to create a generational Australian gold copper mining complex. Further information about the Enlarged Group's operating strategy and objectives is set out in the Admission Document that is now available on the Company's website at https://greatlandgold.com/investors/regulatory-news/.

Within approximately six months from Acquisition Completion, Greatland intends to undertake a listing of the Enlarged Group on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), following which the Enlarged Group would be listed on both ASX and AIM.

Equity raising overview

In connection with the Acquisition, the Company intends to conditionally place new ordinary shares (the Placing Shares) at 4.8 pence per Placing Share (the Issue Price) for a total equity raising of £248.6 million (approximately US$325 million) (the Placing). The Issue Price represents a discount of approximately 30% to the pre-Acquisition announcement undisturbed price on 6 September 2024.

The Placing Shares are being offered by way of an accelerated bookbuild available to qualifying investors, which will be launched immediately following the release of this announcement, in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in the Appendix at the end of this announcement. Certain directors of the Company are intending to participate in the Placing by subscribing for up to US$0.4 million in aggregate at the Issue Price.

In addition to the Placing, retail investors will have the opportunity to participate by a conditional offer for subscription for new ordinary shares (the Retail Shares) at the Issue Price via PrimaryBid for a total equity raising of up to €8 million (approximately £6.8 million and US$8.8 million) (the Retail Offer). A separate announcement will be made shortly regarding the Retail Offer and its terms and conditions. The Retail Offer is expected to close at 4:45 pm on 12 September 2024 and may close early if it is oversubscribed.

Pursuant to the Placing and Retail Offer the Company intends to conditionally raise up to approximately US$333.8 million by issuing up to 5,319,736,029 new ordinary shares (the Equity Raising). The proceeds of the Equity Raising will be used to finance the US$155.1 million cash component of the Acquisition consideration, repayment of the US$52.4 million outstanding Havieron joint venture loan to Newmont, repayment of the outstanding balance of approximately A$7.1 million under the Wyloo working capital facility, the stamp duty payable by the Company on the Acquisition, the payment of transaction costs and expenses in connection with the Acquisition and the Equity Raising, and working capital requirements.

Canaccord is acting as Global Coordinator and Sole Bookrunner in connection with the Equity Raising. Merrill Lynch Markets (Australia) Pty. Limited is acting as financial adviser, and Simmons & Simmons LLP is acting as legal adviser, in relation to the Equity Raising and Readmission (as defined below). King & Wood Mallesons is acting as Australian legal advisor in relation to the Acquisition. SPARK Advisory Partners Limited (SPARK or Nominated Adviser) is acting as Nominated Adviser in connection with the Equity Raising and Readmission (as defined below). Sternship Advisers Pty Ltd and SCP Resource Finance LP are acting as Co-Lead Managers in connection with the Equity Raising.

Settlement of the Equity Raising and admission of the ordinary shares issued pursuant to the Equity Raising to trading on AIM is conditional upon, amongst other things, existing Company shareholders approving the Acquisition and the issue of such shares, but it is not conditional on completion of the Acquisition or on Readmission (as defined below). A general meeting of the Company's shareholders will be convened pursuant to a notice contained in the Admission Document for 10 a.m. on 30 September 2024 (the General Meeting), and admission of the shares issued pursuant to the Equity Raising to trading on AIM is expected to occur shortly thereafter on at 8 a.m. on 1 October 2024.

The Acquisition constitutes a "reverse takeover" under the AIM rules for companies published by London Stock Exchange plc (the AIM Rules for Companies), and is therefore conditional upon the approval of existing Company shareholders at the General Meeting. A reverse takeover involves the cancellation of the existing ordinary shares of the Company from trading on AIM and a new application for the enlarged share capital of the Company (after completion of the Equity Raising and the Acquisition) to be admitted to trading on AIM (Readmission).

Commenting on the transaction, Greatland's Managing Director, Shaun Day, said:

"We are delighted to be combining the Havieron and Telfer projects under our single ownership, making Greatland a material producer of gold and copper. Through constructive bilateral discussions with Newmont, our joint venture partner at Havieron, we now have a compelling opportunity to create value for our shareholders.

"Havieron is a truly world class orebody with a defined pathway to become a low-cost long life gold-copper asset of significant scale.

The acquisition of Telfer, with a defined mine plan that is materially de-risked with substantial ore stockpiles, and significant mine life extension prospects, provides us the opportunity to take advantage of present gold market strength. Telfer production is expected to generate free cash flow, which we expect will help to self-fund the Havieron development.

"The acquisition will allow Greatland to finalise and complete the Havieron feasibility study, to determine the optimal mining throughput rate and development plan to deliver maximum value from the project by leveraging the existing Telfer infrastructure. Additionally, we look forward to integrating an experienced and knowledgeable existing workforce into the Greatland team.

"We have debt funding support for our plans from a syndicate of leading banks, and cornerstone shareholders that are supporting the equity placement being launched today. The capital raising has been structured to allow our shareholders to participate, and we hope they share our excitement in this transformational step in creating an ambitious new gold and copper producer in an exceptional and established Australian mineral province."

Commenting on the transaction, Greatland's Chairman, Mark Barnaba, said:

"The consolidation of 100% ownership of Havieron and acquisition of Telfer is the opportunity which Greatland has been coveting for the past three years, so we are delighted to be announcing the transaction today.

"On behalf of Greatland I extend my sincere gratitude to the Newmont team, for the collaborative approach they have taken to reaching this agreement. We warmly welcome Newmont as a future major shareholder of Greatland and will continue our strong working relationship to make this transaction a success for all stakeholders.

"We also extend our thanks to Wyloo as the cornerstone investor in the Equity Raising in support of the Acquisition. This is a transformational deal for all Greatland shareholders and we are excited to see our business develop to become a major Australian gold and copper producer."

Irrevocable undertakings

The Company has received irrevocable undertakings from the Directors that they will vote, or will procure that the relevant registered holders vote, in favour of the resolutions to be proposed at the General Meeting in respect of 40,342,372 ordinary shares, representing, in aggregate, approximately 0.79% of the Company's existing ordinary shares.

The Company has also received irrevocable undertakings from Wyloo that it will vote, or will procure that the relevant registered holders vote, in favour of the resolutions to be proposed at the General Meeting in respect of those 430,024,390 ordinary shares it is interested in, representing, in aggregate, approximately 8.45% of the Company's existing ordinary shares.

Shareholders should note that if the resolution to approve the Acquisition is not passed, the Acquisition and the Equity Raise will not be completed, in which event the Company will continue to pursue its existing strategy in respect of the future operation of the Havieron project in joint venture.

Expected timetable of principal events

Placing and Retail Offer statistics⁽¹⁾

Notes

⁽¹⁾        The Company reserves the right to increase the size of the Placing. In the event that the size of the Placing is increased, the first £64.1 million (being the pounds sterling equivalent of US$83.75 million) of additional Placing Proceeds will be paid to Newmont and the Consideration Shares will be reduced and any additional Placing Shares issued at Admission will result in a corresponding reduction in Consideration Shares issued at Readmission. In this scenario, the minimum number of Consideration Shares that Newmont would hold would be 1,334,591,146 which are expected to represent 10.2% of the Enlarged Share Capital. If the size of the Placing exceeds £312.7 million (approximately US$408.75 million), the number of Ordinary Shares in issue at Admission would increase, subject to the passing of the Resolutions, and the excess Placing Proceeds (following the application of such proceeds to pay Newmont the additional cash consideration) would be applied to the Company's working capital.

⁽²⁾        Assuming no options are exercised prior to Admission, the Retail Offer is taken up in full, and the Paterson South Consideration Shares are issued.

⁽³⁾        At the Placing Price and calculated in accordance with the Acquisition Agreement, using an exchange rate of £1 = US$1.307.

⁽⁴⁾        Assuming no options are exercised prior to Readmission, the Retail Offer is taken up in full, and the Paterson South Consideration Shares are issued.

The US$325 million Placing is underwritten by Canaccord, with support of up to US$100 million by Wyloo and US$50 million by Tembo Capital.

Financing and terms of the Acquisition

The proceeds of the Placing will be used to finance the US$155.1 million Cash Consideration, the US$52.4 Havieron JV Loan Repayment, repayment of the outstanding balance of approximately A$7.1 million under the Wyloo Working Capital Facility, the Group's working capital, the stamp duty payable on the Acquisition, and the payment of transaction costs and expenses in connection with the Acquisition and Placing.

The net proceeds of the Retail Offer will be used for general working capital purposes.

Uses of Placing Proceeds

Notes:

⁽¹⁾        Assumes Acquisition Completion occurs.

⁽²⁾        The US$155.1 million Cash Consideration is subject to the adjustments described in the Admission Document.

⁽³⁾        Assumes Placing Proceeds of £248.6 million (approximately US$325 million).

⁽⁴⁾     This amount reflects costs that are expected to be paid after the date of the Admission Document and does not include costs that have already been paid prior to the date of the Admission Document. See the Admission Document for an estimate of the total costs paid and payable by the Enlarged Group in connection with the Acquisition, the Fundraise, Admission and Readmission.

Principal terms of the Acquisition

The terms of the Acquisition are summarised in further detail in Part 2 (Summary of the terms of the Acquisition) in the Admission Document, which it is strongly recommended that you read.

In addition to the 70% interest in the Havieron project and 100% ownership of the Telfer mine and infrastructure, the Acquisition also includes certain related assets and interests in the Paterson Province.

Consideration and loan repayment

Under the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, the Company and certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries have agreed to acquire the Target Assets for a total consideration and debt repayment of up to US$475 million (before adjustments) in aggregate, comprising the following.

Cash Consideration and Havieron JV Loan Repayment

The Cash Consideration for the Acquisition of US$155.1 million, subject to adjustments, and the US$52.4 million Havieron JV Loan Repayment, which will be equity funded by proceeds of the Placing.

Consideration Shares

The Consideration Shares will be issued to Newmont on Acquisition Completion, valued at US$167.5 million for the purposes of the Acquisition based on the Placing Price.

The Company reserves the right to increase the size of the Placing and in the event that the size of the Placing is increased, the first US$83.75 million of additional Placing Proceeds will be paid to Newmont and the Consideration Shares will be reduced and any additional Placing Shares issued at Admission will result in a corresponding reduction in Consideration Shares issued at Readmission.

The Consideration Shares will be subject to the following agreements:

§ Lock-In and Orderly Market Deed between Newmont NOL (as the holder of the Consideration Shares) and the Company, which provides for an initial 12 month voluntary lock-in period in respect of the Consideration Shares, and following that a further 12 month orderly market arrangement, in both cases subject to certain exceptions;

§ Relationship Agreement between Newmont NOL and the Company; and

§ Call Option Deed which is expected to be entered into between Newmont NOL and Wyloo, pursuant to which 1,334,591,145 Consideration Shares will be subject to the Wyloo Option which gives Wyloo an option to acquire such Consideration Shares from Newmont at 7.2 pence per Consideration Share (equivalent to a 50% premium to the Placing Price) exercisable for four years from Readmission and a right of first refusal in respect of any Consideration Shares that Newmont NOL wishes to sell during the Option Term.

Deferred Consideration

Up to a maximum US$100.0 million in Deferred Consideration may be payable to Newmont through a gold price linked payment structure with a 50% price upside participation by Newmont in respect of gold produced from Havieron pursuant to the Deferred Consideration Deed, as follows:

§ Duration: 5 calendar years

§ Commencement: Upon declaration of commercial production at Havieron

§ Hurdle Price: US$1,850/oz gold price

§ Annual Cap: US$50 million

§ Total Cap: US$100 million

Calculation formula: Deferred Consideration for the relevant year ("Year") = 50% x (market price - hurdle price) x sum of total gold sold for the relevant year (inc. doré and concentrate), subject to the annual cap and the total cap.

§ Interest: No interest is payable on the Deferred Consideration

The Deferred Consideration mechanism supports the Acquisition and completion of Havieron development by deferring a material component of the total consideration for the Acquisition until Havieron commercial production commencement.

Acquisition Conditions

Acquisition Completion is subject to the satisfaction (or if applicable, waiver) of Acquisition Conditions, including:

§ passing of the Acquisition Resolution at the General Meeting;

§ completion by Newmont of the remediation of the Telfer Tailings Storage Facility 8, such that the deposition of tailings can recommence and resumption by Newmont of processing operations for a period of 14 consecutive days;

§ foreign investment approvals from the Treasurer of the Commonwealth of Australia;

§ ministerial consent to the transfer of the Telfer and Havieron mining tenements;

§ certain other third party and governmental consents and approvals to the transfer, assignment and/or novation of certain leases, contracts and approvals related to the Target Assets; and

§ issue, allotment and admission to trading on AIM of the Consideration.

Subject to satisfaction (or if applicable, waiver) of the Acquisition Conditions, Acquisition Completion is expected to occur in Q4 2024. The Acquisition Agreement provides for a longstop date of 14 February 2025, which may be extended in certain circumstances by up to a further six months.

Proposed ASX listing

Within approximately six months following Acquisition Completion, the Company intends to undertake a listing of the Enlarged Group on ASX. As such, the Enlarged Group would be listed on both ASX and AIM.

In parallel, a corporate reorganisation is intended to be undertaken which would result in the Enlarged Group sitting under a new Australian incorporated parent company, to be effected through a UK scheme of arrangement and subject to approval by shareholders of the Enlarged Group and by the UK Court. The reorganisation will be subject to shareholder approval and a circular will be published at the relevant time (1) convening a meeting at which the relevant resolutions to effect the reorganisation will be put to shareholders; and (2) giving shareholders information about the effect of the proposed reorganisation, including how it affects the rights attaching to their shares and other investor protections, including under the Companies Act and the Takeover Code and the Australian equivalents.

In anticipation of the proposed ASX Listing, the Company has adopted the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations with effect from today.

Background to the Acquisition and the Assets

Acquisition background

The Company's principal asset is its 30% joint venture interest in the Havieron project, a high grade gold-copper deposit located in the Paterson Province in Western Australia. The remaining 70% joint venture interest is currently owned by Newmont.

Newmont acquired the Target Assets through Newmont's acquisition of Newcrest Mining which completed in November 2023. Havieron and Telfer are linked under the current Havieron joint venture in that ore mined from Havieron is intended to be processed utilising the Telfer processing facility and related infrastructure. In February 2024, following Newmont's acquisition of Newcrest Mining, Newmont announced a portfolio rationalisation involving the intended divestment of six mines (including Telfer) and two projects (including Havieron).

The Company discovered the Havieron deposit and is committed to delivering Havieron's full potential for its Shareholders and other stakeholders. The Company considers that it has unrivalled knowledge and experience of Havieron and an organisational expertise that is exceptionally well placed to develop and operate Havieron. Accordingly, consistent with the Company's strategy, the Company has entered into the binding Acquisition Agreement to acquire the Target Assets.

Havieron

Havieron is a high grade underground gold and copper deposit located in the Paterson province in the East Pilbara region of Western Australia, approximately 45km to the east of Telfer. Havieron was discovered by the Company in 2018 and is currently being developed under an unincorporated joint venture between Greatland Pty Ltd (30%) and Newmont NOL (70%), a wholly owned subsidiary of Newmont.

Early works at Havieron commenced in January 2021 following the announcement of the maiden Inferred Mineral Resource. Completion of the box cut and portal enabled commencement of the underground access decline in May 2021, with over 3,060 metres of total underground development completed to date. Underground development is currently paused prior to development through the third and final lower confined aquifer ("LCA") that the decline passes through before reaching the Havieron orebody. A further three evaporation ponds are required to be constructed and utilised in a staged manner, to manage dewatering requirements for development through the LCA. Opportunities to bring forward approvals for these are being progressed.

In March 2022, the Company announced an Ore Reserve estimate of 25Mt at 3.0g/t Au and 0.44% Cu for 2.4Moz Au and 109kt Cu (2.9Moz AuEq). In December 2023, the Company announced a Mineral Resource, inclusive of Ore Reserves, estimate for Havieron of 131Mt at 1.7g/t Au and 0.21% Cu for 7.0Moz Au and 275kt Cu (8.4Moz AuEq).

Further information about Havieron is included the Admission Document. Further detailed information about Havieron, including its ownership, geology, history, Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates, early works, the Greatland Base Case, mineral processing, environmental and permitting approvals, costs and key risks and opportunities, is also set out in the Competent Person's Report in the Admission Document.

Telfer

The Telfer gold-copper mine is located approximately 485km east-south-east from Port Hedland, Western Australia and 45 km west of Havieron. Telfer was discovered in 1971, commenced operating in 1975, and has produced more than 15Moz of gold to date.

Telfer is strategically well positioned in the Paterson Province, with its existing infrastructure and processing capacity de-risking, expediting and reducing the cost of completing Havieron's development, and providing significant potential future upside for the Enlarged Group.

Ore from Telfer is currently mined from the West Dome open pit mine and Main Dome underground. Gold and copper is produced by a large, dual train, processing facility that produces gold doré and a copper-gold concentrate. For the financial year ending 30 June 2023, Telfer produced 349koz Au and 17kt Cu.

Currently, mining operations at Telfer are ongoing, while processing operations have been paused since April 2024 due to issues at the Telfer tailings storage facilities. Newmont has substantially completed an investigation and remediation planning process in respect of these issues, and is now implementing the remediation plan for TSF8. It is a condition of the Acquisition that the remediation of TSF8 is completed by Newmont such that the deposition of tailings can recommence and processing operations are resumed prior to Acquisition Completion, such that at Acquisition Completion the Enlarged Group is expected to acquire an operating Telfer mine and processing operation. Remediation works have also been undertaken, and further remediation works are planned, for TSF7. Further details in respect of TSF8 and TSF7 and the current DEMIRS prohibition notices and DWER environmental protection notice are set out in the Admission Document.

For the six months ending 30 June 2024, Telfer produced 45koz Au and 1kt Cu. Processing operations were suspended for the majority of this period due to the tailings issues described above. Mining operations at Telfer have continued notwithstanding the processing suspensions, resulting in the generation of significant ore stockpiles; in this respect, Newmont's trading update on 24 July 2024 reported that 7.81Mt of ore was mined in the six months ended 30 June 2024, relative to 1.68Mt of ore processed. The expected availability of those stockpiles following Acquisition Completion would operationally de-risk gold and copper production by the Enlarged Group in the immediate period following Acquisition Completion.

As at 31 December 2023, Newmont reported a Mineral Resource for Telfer of 27.6Mt at 0.67g/t Au and 0.09% Cu for 0.59Moz Au and 0.02Mt Cu.

Further information about Telfer and the related assets and interests to be acquired under the Acquisition is included in the Admission Document.

Further information about Telfer, including its ownership, geology, history, Mineral Resource estimates, exploration potential and remnant mineralisation, mining operations, mineral processing, tailings management, infrastructure, environmental and permitting approvals, costs and key risks and opportunities is also set out in the Competent Person's Report in the Admission Document.

Strategy of the Enlarged Group

The Enlarged Group will aspire to become a profitable multi-mine resources company by focusing on the responsible and sustainable discovery, development, extraction, processing and sale of precious and base metals.

The Enlarged Group's operating strategy following Acquisition Completion is to renew and develop an integrated Telfer-Havieron mining and processing operation, to create a generational gold copper mining complex with a focus on the following key phases and objectives.

Related Party Transaction

The proposed participation of Directors Mark Barnaba, Shaun Day, Elizabeth Gaines, Jimmy Wilson, Paul Hallam and Yasmin Broughton in the Placing is regarded as a related party transaction under the AIM Rules for Companies. They will be participating on the same terms as all other investors. In accordance with the AIM Rules, the independent directors, being Alex Borrelli and Clive Latcham will be required to confirm that they consider, having consulted with SPARK as the Company's Nominated Adviser, that the terms of the transaction are fair and reasonable insofar as Shareholders are concerned.

Share Incentive Arrangements

The Directors recognise the role of the Group's employees in contributing to the overall success of the Group and the importance of the Group's ability to attract, incentivise, motivate and retain its employees. Therefore, the Directors believe that employees should be given the opportunity to participate and take a financial interest in the success of the Company.

Following the publication of the Admission Document and prior to Readmission, the Company intends to grant: (i) additional Greatland Performance Rights over up to 80,357,509 Ordinary Shares, in aggregate, and (ii) additional Greatland Retention Rights over 25,000,000 Ordinary Shares. Details of the proposed awards are set out in the Admission Document and a further announcement will be made following the grant of the awards.

These awards includes awards to related parties under the AIM Rules and will therefore be subject to the independent directors considering the terms and reaching an opinion, having consulted with SPARK, as the Company's nominated adviser, that the terms of the awards are fair and reasonable insofar as shareholders are concerned.

General Meeting and Summary of the Resolutions

The Acquisition and the Fundraise require Shareholders' approval of the Acquisition Resolution. Notice of the General Meeting of the Company to be held at Simmons & Simmons LLP, CityPoint, 1 Ropemaker St, London EC2Y 9SS at 10.00 a.m. on 30 September 2024 is set out at the end of the Admission Document, at which the Resolutions will be proposed, a summary of which is set out below.

The Resolutions

The Acquisition Resolution and two of the other Resolutions are special resolutions and one of the other Resolutions is an ordinary resolution.

The purpose of the Acquisition Resolution is to approve the Acquisition and provide the Company with all of the authorities necessary to issue the Fundraise Shares and the Consideration Shares.

The purpose of the other Resolutions is to provide the Company with certain general authorities, conditional upon Acquisition Completion, calculated by reference to the Enlarged Share Capital immediately following Readmission.

Special Resolution 1 (the "Acquisition Resolution")

Paragraph (A) of the Acquisition Resolution is to approve the terms of, and authorise the Directors to implement, the Acquisition.

Paragraph (B) of the Acquisition Resolution is to authorise the Directors, for the purposes of Section 551 of the Companies Act, to allot Ordinary Shares up to an aggregate nominal amount of £ 7,988,918.32 in connection with the Acquisition, the Placing and the Retail Offer. This is the aggregate nominal amount of Ordinary Shares that the Company could be required to issue and allot to Placees pursuant to the Placing, Retail Offerees pursuant to the Retail Offer, and to Newmont pursuant to the Acquisition.

Paragraph (C) of the Acquisition Resolution is to disapply statutory pre-emption rights up to an aggregate nominal amount of £ £7,988,918.32 for the purposes of allotting the Placing Shares, Retail Shares and Consideration Shares in connection with the Acquisition, the Placing and the Retail Offer.

Ordinary Resolution 2, Special Resolution 3 and Special Resolution 4

The Board has the authority to allot any shares or grant rights over shares or sell treasury shares for cash, without first offering them to Shareholders in proportion to their holdings. Ordinary Resolution 2 and Special Resolution 3 and 4 follow the resolutions recommended by the Pre-Emption Group in the PEG Statement of Principles 2022, except that the authorities are calculated by reference to the Enlarged Share Capital as it is expected to be immediately following Readmission.

Ordinary Resolution 2 is subject to and conditional upon the passing of the Acquisition Resolution. Ordinary Resolution 2 is in addition to the authority granted in the Acquisition Resolution and in substitution for the authority granted pursuant to resolution 8 at the annual general meeting of the Company held on 6 December 2023. Ordinary Resolution 2 seeks authority for the Board to allot Ordinary Shares up to an aggregate nominal amount of ££4,360,651. This is expected to represent approximately one-third of the Enlarged Share Capital following Readmission.

Special Resolution 3 is subject to and conditional upon the passing of the Acquisition Resolution, Ordinary Resolution 2. Special Resolution 3 is in addition to the authority granted in the Acquisition Resolution and is in substitution for the authority granted pursuant to resolution 9 at the annual general meeting of the Company on 6 December 2023. Special Resolution 3 seeks authority for the Board to allot Ordinary Shares under the authority given by Ordinary Resolution 2, and/or sell treasury shares in connection with (i) a pre-emptive offer; and (ii) allotments of equity securities or sales of treasury shares up to a nominal amount of £1,308,195. This is expected to represent approximately 10% of the Enlarged Share Capital following Readmission.

Special Resolution 4 is conditional upon the passing of the Acquisition Resolution and Ordinary Resolution 2. Special Resolution 4 is in addition to the authority granted in the Acquisition Resolution and Special Resolution 3 and is in substitution for the authority granted pursuant to resolution 10 at the annual general meeting of the Company on 6 December 2023. Special Resolution 4, in addition to any authority granted under Special Resolution 3, seeks authority for the Board to allot Ordinary Shares under the authority given by Ordinary Resolution 2 and/or sell treasury shares up to an aggregate nominal amount of £1,308,195. This is expected to represent approximately 10% of the Enlarged Share Capital following Readmission. This additional authority is to be used only for the purposes of financing (or refinancing, if the authority is to be used within 12 months after the original transaction) a transaction which the Board determines to be an acquisition or a specified capital investment of a kind contemplated by the PEG Statement of Principles 2022.

Special Resolutions 3 and 4 also seek authority for the Board to allot, in each case, up to a further 2% of what is expected to be the Enlarged Share Capital following Readmission. These additional authorities are to be used only in connection with a follow-on retail offer in accordance with the PEG Statement of Principles 2022, without the Ordinary Shares first being offered to Shareholders in proportion to their existing holdings. The Directors confirm that they will follow the shareholder protections in Section 2B and the expected features of a follow-on offer in Paragraph 3 of Section 2B of the PEG Statement of Principles 2022.

The Company intends to utilise the authorities sought in Ordinary Resolution 2 and Special Resolutions 3 and 4 to the extent that the Placing Shares exceed the Ordinary Shares authorised in the Acquisition Resolution.

The Notice of General Meeting is contained at the end of the Admission Document and sets out the Resolutions in full.

Bookbuild

The Placing Agent will today commence the bookbuilding process in respect of the Placing (the "Bookbuild") to determine demand for participation in the Placing by Placees. The book will open with immediate effect. This Appendix gives details of the terms and conditions of, and the mechanics of participation in the Placing. No commissions will be paid to Placees or by Placees in respect of any Placing Shares. Members of the public are not entitled to participate in the Placing.

The Placing Agent and the Company shall be entitled to effect the Placing by such alternative method to the Bookbuild as they may, in their absolute discretion, determine.

Details of the Placing and Nomad Agreement and of the Placing Shares

The Placing Agent is acting as global co-ordinator, sole bookrunner and Placing Agent in connection with the Placing. The Company has today entered into an agreement with Canaccord Genuity Limited (the "Placing Agent") (the "Placing and Nomad Agreement") with the Placing Agent and SPARK Advisory Partners Limited (as Nominated Adviser to the Company, the "Nomad")) under which, subject to the terms and conditions set out therein, the Placing Agent has agreed as agent for and on behalf of the Company, to use its reasonable endeavours to procure Placees for new ordinary shares of £0.001 each in the capital of the Company (the "Placing Shares"), in such number, if any, to be determined following completion of the Bookbuild and as may be agreed between the Placing Agent and the Company and set out in the executed final terms (the "Final Terms"). The Placing is underwritten and, to the extent that the Placing Agent fails to procure purchasers for 5,179,010,416 Placing Shares the "Backstop Shares") at the Placing Price, prior to 7.30 a.m. (London time) on the first business day immediately following the date of this Agreement, the Placing Agent has agreed to purchase as principal such number of Backstop Shares. In addition to the extent any Placee defaults in paying the Placing Price (as defined below) in respect of any of the Placing Shares allocated to it the Placing Agent has agreed to purchase as principal such Placing Shares. In the event that the Placing Agent acquires Placing Shares in the Placing, it may co-ordinate disposals of such shares in accordance with applicable law and regulation. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, the Placing Agent does not propose to make any public disclosure in relation to such transactions.

The Placing Shares will, when issued, be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares of £0.001 each in the capital of the Company (the "Ordinary Shares"), including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid in respect of such Ordinary Shares after the date of issue of the Placing Shares, and will be issued free of all claims, liens, charges, encumbrances and equities.

Application for admission

Application will be made to London Stock Exchange plc (the "London Stock Exchange") for admission of the Placing Shares to trading on AIM ("Admission").

It is expected that Admission will become effective at or around 8.00 a.m. on 1 October 2024 (or such later time and/or date as may be agreed between the Company and the Placing Agent) and that dealings in the Placing Shares will commence at that time.

Participation in, and principal terms of, the Placing

1.          The Placing Agent is acting as global co-ordinator, sole bookrunner and agent of the Company in connection with the Placing.

2.          Participation in the Placing will only be available to persons who may lawfully be, and are, invited to participate by the Placing Agent. The Placing Agent and its agents and affiliates are each entitled to enter bids in the Bookbuild as principal.

3.          The price per Placing Share payable to the Placing Agent by all Placees whose bids are successful is 4.8 pence (the "Placing Price"). The final number of Placing Shares will be determined by the Company (in consultation with the Placing Agent) following completion of the Bookbuild but will not be fewer than the Backstop Shares. The final number of Placing Shares to be issued will be announced on a FCA-listed regulatory information service (a "Regulatory Information Service") following the completion of the Bookbuild.

4.          To bid in the Bookbuild, prospective Placees should communicate their bid by telephone or in writing to their usual sales contact at the Placing Agent. Each bid should state the number of Placing Shares which the prospective Placee wishes to subscribe for at the Placing Price. Bids may be scaled down by the Placing Agent on the basis referred to in paragraph 12 below.

5.          A bid in the Bookbuild will be made on the terms and subject to the conditions in this Appendix and will be legally binding on the Placee on behalf of which it is made and, except with the Placing Agent's consent, will not be capable of variation or revocation after the time at which it is submitted. Each Placee's obligations will be owed to the Company and the Placing Agent. Each Placee will also have an immediate, separate, irrevocable and binding obligation, owed to the Placing Agent as agent of the Company, to pay in cleared funds immediately on the settlement date, in accordance with the registration and settlement requirements set out below, an amount equal to the product of the Placing Price and the number of Placing Shares such Placee has agreed to subscribe for and the Company has agreed to allot to them.

6.          The Bookbuild is expected to close no later than 7 a.m. (London time) on 11 September 2024, but may be closed earlier or later at the absolute discretion of the Placing Agent. The Placing Agent may, in agreement with the Company, accept bids that are received after the Bookbuild has closed.

7.          Each prospective Placee's allocation will be agreed between the Placing Agent and the Company and will be confirmed orally or in writing by the Placing Agent (as agent of the Company) following the close of the Bookbuild. This confirmation to such Placee will constitute an irrevocable legally binding commitment upon that person (who will at that point become a Placee) in favour of the Placing Agent and the Company to subscribe for the number of Placing Shares allocated to it at the Placing Price on the terms and conditions set out in this Appendix and in accordance with the Company's articles of association and each Placee will be deemed to have read and understood this Announcement (including this Appendix) in its entirety.

8.          The allocation of Placing Shares to Placees located in the United States and Canada shall be conditional on the execution by each Placee of an investor representation letter or subscription agreement (in the form required by the Placing Agent).

9.          All obligations under the Bookbuild and Placing will be subject to fulfilment or, where applicable, waiver of the conditions referred to below under "Conditions of the Placing" and to the Placing not being terminated on the basis referred to below under "Right to terminate under the Placing and Nomad Agreement".

10.        By participating in the Bookbuild, each Placee will agree 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 after confirmation (oral or otherwise) by the Placing Agent.

11.        Each prospective Placee's allocation and commitment will be evidenced by a contract note or trade confirmation issued to such Placee by the Placing Agent. The terms of this Appendix will be deemed incorporated by reference therein.

12.        Subject to paragraphs 4 and 5 above, the Placing Agent may choose to accept bids, either in whole or in part, on the basis of allocations determined in agreement with the Company and may scale down any bids for this purpose on such basis as they may determine. The Placing Agent may also, notwithstanding paragraphs 4 and 5 above, subject to the prior consent of the Company (i) allocate Placing Shares after the time of any initial allocation to any person submitting a bid after that time; and (ii) allocate Placing Shares after the Bookbuild has closed to any person submitting a bid after that time. The Company reserves the right (upon agreement with the Placing Agent) to reduce or seek to increase the amount to be raised pursuant to the Placing.

13.        Except as required by law or regulation, no press release or other announcement will be made by the Placing Agent or the Company using the name of any Placee (or its agent), in its capacity as Placee (or agent), other than with such Placee's prior written consent.

14.        Irrespective of the time at which a Placee's allocation pursuant to the Placing is confirmed, settlement for all Placing Shares to be subscribed for pursuant to the Placing will be required to be made at the same time, on the basis explained below under "Registration and settlement".

15.        To the fullest extent permissible by law, neither the Company nor the Placing Agent nor any of its affiliates or any of its Representatives shall have any responsibility or liability (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) to Placees (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise). In particular, neither the Company nor the Placing Agent nor any of their respective affiliates nor any of their respective Representatives shall have any responsibility or liability (whether in contract, tort or otherwise and including to the fullest extent permissible by law, any fiduciary duties) in respect of the conduct of the Bookbuild or of such alternative method of effecting the Placing as the Placing Agent and the Company may agree.

Conditions of the Placing

The Placing is conditional upon the Placing and Nomad Agreement becoming unconditional and not having been terminated in accordance with its terms. The obligations of the Placing Agent under the Placing and Nomad Agreement in respect of the Placing Shares are conditional on, inter alia:

1.          each of the representations and warranties of the Company contained in the Placing and Nomad Agreement being true and accurate and not misleading or becoming untrue or inaccurate on and as of the date of the Placing and Nomad Agreement and at all times before Admission;

2.          the Company complying with its obligations and undertakings under the Placing and Nomad Agreement, so far as the same fall to be performed or satisfied on or prior to Admission;

3.          there not having occurred, in the good faith opinion of the Placing Agent and the Nomad, any material adverse change in respect of the Company and the Group at any time prior to Admission;

4.          the Admission Document being published;

5.          the shareholders of the Company authorising the acquisition by the Company ("Acquisition") of the 70 per cent joint venture interest in the Havieron gold-copper project, the 100 per cent of the Telfer gold-copper mine and the selected Paterson Province assets ("Target Assets") and the Placing;

6.          the Wyloo Irrevocable Undertaking being in full force and effect and not having been terminated;

7.          the Tembo Irrevocable Undertaking being in full force and effect and not having been terminated;

8.          the Directors Irrevocable Undertaking being in full force and effect and not having been terminated at any time prior to Admission;

9.          the Company allotting, subject only to Admission, the Placing Shares in accordance with the terms of the Placing and Nomad Agreement;

10.        the placing results announcement being published;

11.        no supplementary admission document being published before Admission which is materially adverse in the context of the Placing; and

12.        Admission taking place by not later than 8.00 a.m. (London time) on 1 October 2024 (or such later time and/or date as may be agreed between the Company and the Placing Agent, being not later than 8 October 2024).

Each of the Placing Agent and the Nomad may at their discretion waive compliance by the Company with certain of the conditions and/or agree an extension in time for its satisfaction. Any such extension or waiver will not affect Placees' commitments as set out in this Announcement.

If (a) any of the conditions contained in the Placing and Nomad Agreement, including those described above, are not fulfilled (or, where permitted, waived or extended in writing by the Placing Agent) or become incapable of fulfilment on or before the date or time specified for the fulfilment thereof (or such later date and/or time as the Placing Agent and Nomad may agree); or (b) the Placing and Nomad Agreement is terminated in the circumstances specified below, the Placing will not proceed and the Placees' rights and obligations hereunder in relation to the Placing Shares shall cease and terminate at such time and each Placee agrees that no claim can be made by the Placee in respect thereof, save that the Placing Agent shall return any monies received by prospective Placees to them in accordance with these terms and conditions and the Placing and Nomad Agreement.

Neither the Placing Agent, the Nomad nor any of their respective affiliates nor any of their respective Representatives shall have any responsibility or 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 in the absolute discretion of the Placing Agent.

By participating in the Bookbuild, each Placee agrees that its rights and obligations hereunder terminate only in the circumstances described above and under "Right to terminate under the Placing and Nomad Agreement" below, and will not be capable of rescission or termination by the Placee.

Should Shareholder approval of the Acquisition and Placing not be obtained at the Extraordinary General Meeting, none of the Placing nor Admission will occur.

The Placing is not conditional on the Acquisition Agreement having become unconditional in all respects. In the event that the Acquisition Agreement does not become unconditional in all respects or is terminated after Admission, Admission will still have occurred.

In the event that the Placing proceeds, but ultimately the Acquisition Completion does not occur, the Directors intend to use the funds raised by the Company to satisfy the Group's working capital requirements and costs of the Acquisition, Placing and Retail Offer, repay the amounts drawn down (of approximately A$7.1 million) under the Wyloo working capital facility. Where Acquisition Completion does not occur, the Company may seek to utilise part of the Fundraise proceeds to exercise its right of last refusal under the Havieron JV in the event that Newmont proposes to sell its interest in the Havieron JV to a third party and to seek other suitable acquisition opportunities. The Company may apply the Placing Proceeds for another acquisition of a company or mineral licence by the Group. If no other acquisition opportunity can be found on acceptable terms the Company will take steps to return such sums to Shareholders as a whole and not just Placees.

Restriction on further issue of securities

The Company has undertaken that it will not, and will procure that none of its subsidiaries will, at any time between the date of the Placing and Nomad Agreement and the date which is 90 days after the date of Admission, or the termination of the Placing and Nomad Agreement whichever is earlier, without the prior written consent of the Placing Agent enter into certain transactions involving or relating to the Ordinary Shares, subject to certain customary carve-outs agreed between the Placing Agent and the Company.

By participating in the Placing, Placees agree that the exercise by the Placing Agent of any power to consent to waive the undertaking by the Company of a transaction which would otherwise be subject to such undertaking in the Placing and Nomad Agreement shall be within the absolute discretion of the Placing Agent, and that neither the Placing Agent nor the Company need to make any reference to, consult with, or seek consent from, Placees and that the Placing Agent shall have no liability to Placees whatsoever in connection with any such exercise of the power to grant consent or failure so to exercise.

Right to terminate under the Placing and Nomad Agreement

At any time before Admission, the Placing Agent and the Nomad are each entitled to terminate the Placing and Nomad Agreement in the following circumstances, amongst others: (i) if any of the Company's warranties or representations are not or cease to be true and accurate or have become misleading; or (ii) if any of the conditions have not been satisfied (or, where capable of waiver, waived by the Placing Agent) by the date specified therein; or (iii) the Company fails to comply with any of its obligations or undertakings under the Placing and Nomad Agreement (save for any such breach which in the opinion of either the Placing Agent or Nomad is not material); or (iv) in the good faith opinion of the Placing Agent, there shall have occurred any material adverse change in respect of the Company and the Group (within the meaning of the Placing and Nomad Agreement).

Upon notice being given to the Company, the parties to the Placing and Nomad Agreement shall be released and discharged (except for any liability arising before or in relation to such termination) from their respective obligations under or pursuant to the Placing and Nomad Agreement, subject to certain exceptions.

Any termination by either the Placing Agent or the Nomad of its rights under the Placing Agreement shall be without prejudice to the obligations (if any) and rights of the other and the Placing Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in respect of the other parties.

By participating in the Placing, Placees agree that the exercise or non-exercise by the Placing Agent of any right of termination or other discretion under the Placing and Nomad Agreement shall be within the absolute discretion of the Placing Agent, and that neither the Placing Agent nor the Company need to make any reference to, consult with, or seek consent from, Placees and that neither the Placing Agent nor the Company shall have any liability to Placees whatsoever in connection with any such exercise or failure so to exercise.

No Prospectus

The Placing Shares are being offered to a limited number of specifically invited persons only and will not be offered in such a way as to require any prospectus or other offering document to be published. No prospectus has been or will be prepared or submitted to be approved by the FCA or submitted to the London Stock Exchange or in any other jurisdiction in relation to the Placing and no such prospectus is required (in accordance with the UK Prospectus Regulation and the EU Prospectus Regulation) to be published. Placees' commitments will be made solely on the basis of their own assessment of the Company, the Placing and the Placing Shares based on information contained in this Announcement (including this Appendix), the Admission Document and any information publicly announced to a Regulatory Information Service by or on behalf of the Company simultaneously with or prior to the date of this Announcement, and subject to the further terms set forth in the contract note or trade confirmation to be provided to individual prospective Placees. Each Placee, by accepting a participation in the Placing, agrees that the content of this Announcement, the Admission Document and all other publicly available information previously and simultaneously published by or on behalf of the Company by notification to a Regulatory Information Service is exclusively the responsibility of the Company and has not been independently verified by the Placing Agent. Each Placee, by accepting a participation in the Placing, further confirms that it has neither received nor relied on any other information, representation, warranty or statement made by or on behalf of the Company, the Placing Agent or any other person and none of the Company or the Placing Agent or any of its affiliates or any of its Representatives will be liable for any Placee's decision to participate in the Placing based on any other information, representation, warranty or statement which the Placee may have obtained or received. Each Placee acknowledges and agrees that it has relied on its own investigation of the business, financial or other position of the Company in accepting a participation in the Placing. Nothing in this paragraph shall exclude or limit the liability of any person for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation by that person.

The Acquisition constitutes a reverse takeover under the AIM Rules of the London Stock Exchange and the Company has concurrently with this Announcement published an Admission Document in accordance with the AIM Rules for the re-application for admission to listing of the Company's share capital following completion of the Acquisition (the "Admission Document"); and such Admission Document includes additional disclosure in relation to the Target Assets, including without limitation, a competent persons report on the Target Assets, which may be different from and which will update, supplement and/or supersede the publicly available information previously published by or on behalf of the Company.

Registration and settlement

Settlement of transactions in the Placing Shares (ISIN: GB00B15XDH89) following Admission will take place within the CREST system, subject to certain exceptions. In the event of any difficulties or delays in the admission of the Placing Shares to CREST or the use of CREST in relation to the Placing, the Company and the Placing Agent may agree that the Placing Shares should be issued in certificated form. The Placing Agent and the Company reserve the right to require settlement for and delivery of the Placing Shares (or a portion thereof) to Placees in certificated form or by such other means as they deem necessary if delivery or settlement is not possible or practicable within the CREST system or would not be consistent with the regulatory requirements in the Placee's jurisdiction.

Following the close of the Bookbuild, each Placee allocated Placing Shares in the Placing will be sent a contract note or trade confirmation stating the number of Placing Shares to be allocated to it at the Placing Price and settlement instructions. It is expected that such contract note or trade confirmation will be despatched on or around 11 September 2024 and that this will also be the trade date.

Each Placee agrees that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery and payment is completed in accordance with the standing CREST or certificated settlement instructions that it has in place with the Placing Agent.

The Company will deliver the Placing Shares to a CREST account operated by the Placing Agent as agent for the Company and the Placing Agent will enter its delivery (DEL) instruction into the CREST system. The Placing Agent will hold any Placing Shares delivered to this account as nominee for the Placees until settlement. The input to CREST by a Placee of a matching or acceptance instruction will then allow delivery of the relevant Placing Shares to that Placee against payment.

It is expected that settlement will be on 1 October 2024 following approval of the Acquisition and the Placing by the Company's shareholder on a delivery versus payment basis in accordance with the instructions given to the Placing Agent. Should Shareholder approval of the Acquisition and Placing not be obtained at the Extraordinary General Meeting, none of the Placing nor Admission will occur. Interest is chargeable daily on payments not received from Placees on the due date in accordance with the arrangements set out above at the rate of two percentage points above SONIA as determined by the Placing Agent.

Each Placee is deemed to agree that, if it does not comply with these obligations, the Placing Agent may sell any or all of the Placing Shares allocated to that Placee on such Placee's behalf and retain from the proceeds, for the account and benefit of each of the Placing Agent, an amount equal to the aggregate amount owed by the Placee plus any interest due. 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 or other similar taxes (together with any interest or penalties thereon) imposed in any jurisdiction which may arise upon the sale of such Placing Shares on such Placee's behalf. By communicating a bid for Placing Shares, each Placee confers on each of the Placing Agent all such authorities and powers necessary to carry out any such transaction and agrees to ratify and confirm all actions which each of the Placing Agent lawfully takes on such Placee's behalf.

If Placing Shares are to be delivered to a custodian or settlement agent, Placees should ensure that the contract note or trade confirmation is copied and delivered immediately to the relevant person within that organisation.

Insofar as Placing Shares are registered in a Placee's name or that of its nominee or in the name of any person for whom a Placee is contracting as agent or that of a nominee for such person, such Placing Shares should, subject as provided below, be so registered free from any liability to UK stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax. If there are any other circumstances in which any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax or other similar taxes (and/or any interest, fines or penalties relating thereto) is payable in respect of the allocation, allotment, issue or delivery of the Placing Shares (or for the avoidance of doubt if any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax is payable in connection with any subsequent transfer of or agreement to transfer Placing Shares), none of the Placing Agent or the Company shall be responsible for the payment thereof.

Placees (or any nominee or other agent acting on behalf of a Placee) will not be entitled to receive any fee or commission in connection with the Placing.

The agreement to allot and issue Placing Shares to Placees (or the persons for whom Placees are contracting as nominee or agent) free of stamp duty and stamp duty reserve tax 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 is subject to the representations, warranties and further terms above and assumes, and is based on the warranty and representation from each Placee, that the Placing Shares are not being acquired in connection with arrangements to issue depositary receipts or to issue or transfer the Placing Shares into a clearance service. If there are any such arrangements, or the settlement relates to any other dealing in the Placing Shares, stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax or other similar taxes may be payable, for which neither the Company nor the Placing Agent will be responsible and each Placee shall indemnify on an after-tax basis and hold harmless the Company, the Placing Agent and its affiliates and its Representatives for any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax or other similar tax paid or otherwise payable by them in respect of any such arrangements or dealings. If this is the case, each Placee should seek its own advice and notify the Placing Agent accordingly.

Neither the Company nor the Placing Agent is liable to bear 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 in or outside the United Kingdom by any Placee or any other person on a Placee's acquisition of any Placing Shares or the agreement by a Placee to acquire any Placing Shares. Each Placee agrees to indemnify on an after-tax basis and hold harmless the Company, the Placing Agent and its affiliates and its Representatives from any and all interest, fines or penalties in relation to any such duties or taxes.

Each Placee should seek its own advice as to whether any of the above tax liabilities arise and notify the Placing Agent accordingly.

Each Placee, and any person acting on behalf of each Placee, acknowledges and agrees that the Placing Agent and/or any of its affiliates may, at their absolute discretion, agree to become a Placee in respect of some or all of the Placing Shares.

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 the Placing Agent's money in accordance with the client money rules and will be used by the Placing Agent in the course of its own business; and the Placee will rank only as a general creditor of the Placing Agent.

Past performance is no guide to future performance and persons needing advice should consult an independent financial adviser.

The rights and remedies of the Placing Agent and the Company under these terms and conditions are in addition to any rights and remedies which would otherwise be available to each of them and the exercise or partial exercise of one will not prevent the exercise of others.
