ASX ANNOUNCEMENT
10 October 2025
BONUS LOYALTY OPTIONS OFFER
Lake Resources N.L. (ASX:LKE) (“Lake” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has lodged a
prospectus (“Prospectus”) in relation to the pro-rata, non-renounceable bonus offer of options to acquire
shares in the Company (“Loyalty Options”) to Eligible Shareholders (defined below) on the basis of one
(1) Loyalty Option for every ten (10) fully paid ordinary shares held at 7:00pm (AEST) on the Record Date
(as set out in the indicative timetable below), (“Offer”).
Each Loyalty Option will be issued for nil consideration and will be exercisable at A$0.05, expiring at
5:00pm (AEST) on the date that is three years from the date of issue.
The Offer of Loyalty Options will only be available to those persons who:
• are registered as a holder of fully paid ordinary shares in the Company as at 7:00pm (AEST) on
the Record Date;
• have a registered address in Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Canada (British
Columbia Province only), Singapore, the United States, Hong Kong or Argentina; and
• to the extent that those persons have a registered address in the United States, have returned a
duly signed US investor certificate to the Company on or before 7:00pm (AEST) on the Record
Date,
(“Eligible Shareholders”).
The Prospectus follows this announcement and sets out the full terms and conditions of the Offer and the
Loyalty Options.
Eligible Shareholders do not need to take any action in order to receive the Loyalty Options. As the
Loyalty Options will be issued for nil consideration, no application fee is payable and no application
form is required to be completed. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) participants will not be eligible to participate
in the Offer of Loyalty Options, except to the extent that an OTC participant is an Eligible Shareholder.
Subject to meeting the ASX’s minimum eligibility criteria for quotation, the Company intends to seek
quotation of the Loyalty Options. Once quoted, the Loyalty Options shall be transferable. Until such time,
however, the Loyalty Options will remain unquoted and non-transferable.
The purpose of the Offer is to recognize the invaluable support the Company has received from its
shareholders, and to reward existing Eligible Shareholders by making a bonus loyalty offer for nil
consideration. The Offer is non-renounceable, meaning that Eligible Shareholders will not be able to
transfer their entitlements pursuant to the Offer.
Funds received by the Company from the exercise of any Loyalty Options are intended to be applied to
operating and general corporate expenditure as required to continue progressing multiple activities in
relation to the Kachi Project. However, the application of funds raised from the exercise of the Loyalty
Options will depend on when the Loyalty Options are exercised and the status of the Company’s projects
and requirements at the relevant time.
The Board recommends that you read the Prospectus carefully, and in its entirety.
The indicative timetable for the issue of the Loyalty Options is as follows:

8. Offer Restrictions
This Prospectus does not constitute an offer of options in any jurisdiction in which it would be unlawful.
Loyalty Options may not be offered or issued, and this Prospectus is not to be distributed, in and any
country outside of Australia except to the extent permitted below. No action has been taken to lodge

Options.
The Company has decided that it is unreasonable to issue any Loyalty Options to Shareholders with
registered addresses outside of Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Canada (British Columbia
only), Singapore, the United States, Hong Kong or Argentina having regard to the number of
Shareholders in those places, the number of options that would be issued and the cost of complying
with the legal and regulatory requirements in those places. Accordingly, the Offer is not being extended
to, and does not qualify for distribution or sale by, and no options will be issued to Shareholders having
registered addresses outside of Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Canada (British Columbia
only), Singapore, the United States, Hong Kong or Argentina.
Shareholders resident in the United Kingdom
Neither this Prospectus nor any other document relating to the Offer of Loyalty Options has been

basis in the United Kingdom to fewer than 150 persons who are existing Shareholders of the Company.
This Prospectus may not be distributed or reproduced, in whole or in part, nor may its contents be
disclosed by recipients, to any other person in the United Kingdom.
Any invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of section 21 of the
FSMA) received in connection with the issue or sale of the Loyalty Options has only been communicated
or caused to be communicated and will only be communicated or caused to be communicated in the
United Kingdom in circumstances in which section 21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to the Company.

securities in the Province.
No securities commission or other authority in the Province has reviewed or in any way passed upon

may not be possible for purchasers to effect service of process within Canada upon the Company or its
Directors or officers. All or a substantial portion of the assets of the Company and such persons may
