Not for release to US wire services or distribution in the United States
EXTENSION OF SHARE PURCHASE PLAN AND
ASX WAIVER FROM LISTING RULE 7.1
Extension of Share Purchase Plan
Lake Resources N.L. (ASX: LKE) (“Lake” or the “Company”) advises that the closing date for the
Share Purchase Plan announced on 12 March 2024 (“SPP”) is extended to 5.00pm (AEDT) Thursday,
18 April 2024.
The extension of the SPP is to allow sufficient time for all eligible shareholders to participate and
complete applications following the Easter holiday period.
The SPP provides eligible shareholders with an opportunity to apply for up to A$30,000 of new fully
paid ordinary shares in Lake at an issue price of A$0.07 per share without incurring brokerage or other
transaction costs.
Shareholders that have already applied for shares under the SPP are not required to re-submit their
application form unless they wish to apply for additional shares up to the maximum application amount
of A$30,000.
ASX Waiver from Listing Rule 7.1
As previously announced, the Company intended to apply for a waiver under ASX Listing Rule 7.1
from the requirement that the issue price of shares under the SPP be no lower than 80% of the 5 day
VWAP.
The Company is pleased to announce that it has sought, and the ASX has granted, the waiver.
As a result of the waiver, the SPP will not utilize the Company’s available placement capacity under
Listing Rule 7.1 and the SPP will not require shareholder approval at an EGM.
The Company will ensure the SPP otherwise complies with the conditions of Exception 5 to Listing
Rule 7.2, including that the SPP must not result in shares being issued in excess of the overall cap of
30% of the Company’s issued capital.
