Performance Rights Cessation Details
According to the filing lodged on 5 November 2026, the cessation covers two separate tranches of SMSAD performance rights. The first tranche comprised 5,250,000 performance rights that lapsed across three share price-based milestone tranches, with the filing noting these involved 1.7 million rights across three tranches. The second tranche comprised 3,000,000 performance rights that lapsed due to failure to achieve the Albright vend rights condition as set out in the company's prospectus at listing, as well as a milestone requiring a measured mineral resource at Tumblegum South. The company confirmed no consideration was paid for either cessation.
Issued Capital Following Cessation
Following the removal of the 8,250,000 performance rights, the company's issued capital comprises 260,764,593 ordinary fully paid shares quoted on ASX. Unquoted equity securities remaining on issue include 21,108,332 SMSAD performance rights, 4,316,667 SMSAF performance shares, 7,500,000 options expiring 17 November 2028 at an exercise price of $0.0675, 36,599,992 options expiring 31 October 2026 at $0.06, 6,680,184 options expiring 16 August 2031 at $0.0806, and 3,471,093 options expiring 23 June 2028 at $0.0375.
Reason for Lapse of Conditional Rights
The filing states the reason for cessation in both tranches is the lapse of conditional rights to securities because the conditions have not been, or have become incapable of being, satisfied. The filing identifies the specific unmet conditions for each tranche: share price-based milestones for the 5,250,000 rights, and the Albright vend rights per the prospectus at listing together with achieving a measured mineral resource at Tumblegum South for the 3,000,000 rights. The company did not disclose any further information regarding the conditions or timelines in the filing.
