March 27, 2024

New York (United States) – Lifezone Metals Limited’s (NYSE: LZM) is pleased to announce the closing in escrow of the previously disclosed US$50 million non-brokered private placement of unsecured convertible debentures.

Interest is payable quarterly via a mix of cash and shares during the first two years and all in cash during the last two years.

The debentures are convertible into common shares of Lifezone at the option of the holder at a price of US$8.00 per share, and is subject to customary adjustments. Mandatory conversion can occur if Lifezone’s share price is greater than 50% above the conversion price for any 15 trading days within a 30 consecutive trading days period.

Net proceeds, once received, will be used to advance the Kabanga Nickel Project and for general corporate and administrative purposes.

The convertible debentures referred to in this notice have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933 or with any securities regulatory authority of any state of the United States and may not be offered or sold within the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.

If the Lender elects to convert any or all of the Principal Amount of this Debenture, such conversion shall occur immediately prior to the record date for the issuance of such rights, options or warrants. If the Lender elects not to convert any of the Principal Amount of this Debenture, there shall continue to be an adjustment to the Conversion Price as a result of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants, in the manner hereinafter provided. The Conversion Price will be adjusted effective immediately after the end of the Rights Period to a price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the end of the Rights Period by a fraction:

by the Current Market Price (as hereinafter defined) of the Shares as of the record date for the Rights Offering; and

as at the end of the Rights Period.

“Current Market Price” of the Shares at any date, means the VWAP at which the Shares have traded on the Exchange or, if the Shares are not listed on any stock exchange, then on the over-the-counter market, for any twenty (20) consecutive trading days selected by the Borrower commencing not later than forty-five (45) trading days and ending no later than five (5) trading days before such date; provided, however, if such Shares are not traded during such forty-five (45) day period for at least twenty (20) consecutive trading days, the simple average of the following prices established for each of twenty (20) consecutive trading days selected by the Borrower commencing not later than forty-five (45) trading days before such date:

or in the event that at any date the Shares are not listed on the Exchange or on the over-the-counter market, the current market price shall be as determined by the directors of the Borrower or such firm of independent chartered accountants as may be selected by the directors of the Borrower, acting reasonably, and in good faith in their sole discretion for these purposes, the weighted average price for any period shall be determined by dividing the aggregate sale prices during such period by the total number of Shares sold during such period.

Any Shares owned by or held for the account of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or affiliate of the Borrower will be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation under this Section 4.3(2).

If by the terms of the rights, options or warrants referred to in this Section 4.3(2), there is more than one purchase, conversion or exchange price per Share, the aggregate price of the total number of additional Shares offered for subscription or purchase, or the aggregate conversion or exchange price of the convertible securities so offered, will be calculated for purposes of the adjustment on the basis of

To the extent that any adjustment in the Conversion Price occurs pursuant to this Section 4.3(2) as a result of the fixing by the Borrower of a record date for the distribution of rights, options or warrants referred to in this Section 4.3(2), the Conversion Price will be readjusted immediately after the expiration of any relevant exchange, conversion or exercise right to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Shares actually issued and remaining issuable after such expiration, and will be further readjusted in such manner upon expiration of any further such right.

If the Lender has exercised its Conversion Right in accordance herewith during the Rights Period, the Lender will, in addition to the Shares to which it is otherwise entitled upon such exercise, be entitled to that number of additional Shares equal to the result obtained when the difference, if any, between the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to, and the Conversion Price in effect immediately following the end of such Rights Offering pursuant to this Section 4.3(2), is multiplied by the number of Shares received upon the exercise of the Conversion Right during such period, and the resulting product is divided by the Conversion Price as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this Section 4.3(2); provided that no fractional Shares will be issued. Such additional Shares will be deemed to have been issued to the Lender immediately following the end of the Rights Period and a certificate for such additional Shares will be delivered to the Lender within ten Business Days following the end of the Rights Period.

(3) If and whenever at any time prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Shares of (i) shares of any class other than Shares (or other than securities convertible into or exchangeable for Shares), or (ii) rights, options or warrants (other than rights, options or warrants referred to in Section 4.3(2)), or (iii) evidences of its indebtedness, or (iv) assets (other than dividends paid in the ordinary course) then, in each such case, the Borrower shall give written notice to the Lender with respect thereto, and the Lender shall have fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice to elect to convert any or all of the Principal Amount of this Debenture into Shares at the then applicable Conversion Price and otherwise on terms and conditions set out in this Debenture. If the Lender elects to convert any or all of the Principal Amount of this Debenture, such conversion shall occur immediately prior to the record date for the making of such distribution. If the Lender elects not to convert any of the Principal Amount of this Debenture, there shall continue to be an adjustment to the Conversion Price as a result of the making of such distribution, (herein referred to as a “Special Distribution”) determined in the manner hereafter set out. In this Section 4.3(3) the term “dividends paid in the ordinary course” shall include the value of any securities or other property or assets distributed in lieu of cash dividends paid in the ordinary course at the option of shareholders.

The Conversion Price will be adjusted effective immediately after such record date to a price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction:

Any Shares owned by or held for the account of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or affiliate of the Borrower will be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation.

(4) In the case of any reclassification of, or other change in, the outstanding Shares pursuant to a Merger, if the Lender elects not to redeem this Debenture in accordance with Section 3.1, the Lender may elect, prior to the effective date of such Merger, to convert any or all of the Principal Amount of this Debenture into Shares at the then applicable Conversion Price and otherwise on terms and conditions set out in this Debenture. To exercise such right the Lender must provide a notice in writing to the Borrower no later than seven (7) days prior to the effective date of such Merger, failing which the Lender’s right to convert this Debenture as a consequence of such Merger shall cease. If the Lender elects to convert any or all of the Principal Amount of this Debenture, such conversion shall occur immediately prior to the effective date of such Merger. If the Lender elects not to convert any of the Principal Amount of this Debenture, the Conversion Price in effect after the effective date of such Merger shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, in proportion to any decrease or increase in the number of outstanding Shares resulting from such Merger so that the Lender, upon exercising the Conversion Right after the effective date of such Merger, will be entitled to receive the aggregate number of Shares or other securities, if any, which the Lender would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Merger if, on the effective date thereof, the Lender had been the registered holder of the number of Shares to which the Lender was theretofore entitled upon exercise of the Conversion Right.

(5) In the case of any reclassification of, or other change in, the outstanding Shares (other than a change referred to in Section 4.3(1), Section 4.3(2), Section 4.3(3) or 4.3(4) hereof), the Conversion Price shall be adjusted in such manner, if any, and at such time, as the Board of Directors of the Borrower determines to be appropriate on a basis consistent with the intent of this Section 4.3; provided that if at any time a dispute arises with respect to adjustments provided for in this Article 4, such dispute will be conclusively determined by the auditors of the Borrower or if they are unable or unwilling to act, by such other firm of independent chartered accountants as may be selected by action by the directors of the Borrower, acting reasonably, and any such determination will be binding on the Borrower and the Lender. The Borrower will provide such auditors or accountants with access to all necessary records of the Borrower. If and whenever at any time after the date hereof there is a reclassification or redesignation of the Shares outstanding at any time or change of the Shares into other shares or into other securities (other than as set out in Section 4.3(1), (2), (3) or (4)), or a consolidation, amalgamation or merger of the Borrower with or into any other corporation or other entity (other than a consolidation, amalgamation or merger which does not result in any reclassification or redesignation of the outstanding Shares or a change of the Shares into other shares and other than as set forth in Section 4.3(4)), or a transfer of the undertaking or assets of the Borrower as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another corporation or other entity (any of such events being called a “Capital Reorganisation”), the Lender, upon the exercising the Conversion Right, after the effective date of such Capital Reorganization, will be entitled to receive in lieu of the number of Shares to which the Lender was theretofore entitled upon such exercise, the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property, if any, which the Lender would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date thereof, the Lender had been the registered holder of the number of Shares to which such Lender was theretofore entitled upon exercise of the Conversion Right. If determined appropriate by action of the directors of the Borrower, appropriate adjustments will be made as a result of any such Capital Reorganization in the application of the provisions set forth in this Section 4.3 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Lender to the end that the provisions set forth in this Section 4.3 will thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonably be in relation to any shares, other securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Conversion Right. Any such adjustment must be made by and set forth in an amendment to this Debenture approved by action by the directors of the Borrower, acting reasonably, and will for all purposes be conclusively deemed to be an appropriate adjustment.

(6) In any case in which this Section 4.3 shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event referred to herein, the Borrower may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the Lender before the occurrence of such event, the additional Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event before giving effect to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender an appropriate instrument evidencing the Lender’s right to receive such additional Shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment and the right to receive any distributions made on such additional Shares declared in favour of holders of record of Shares on and after the Issue Date or such later date as the Lender would, but for the provisions of this Section 4.3(6), have become the holder of such additional Shares pursuant to Section 4.3(2).

(7) The adjustments provided for in this Section 4.3 are cumulative and shall apply to successive subdivisions, redivisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations, distributions, issues or other events resulting in any adjustment under the provisions of this Section, provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Conversion Price then in effect; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 4.3(7) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

Section 4.4 Limitations on Conversions

The Debentureholder shall not have the right or obligation to convert any portion of the Debenture or otherwise receive Shares hereunder to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion or receipt of Shares, such Debentureholder, together with any Person acting jointly or in concert with it including for greater certainty any of its affiliates, would beneficially own, or exercise control or direction over more than 4.9% of the number of Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion or receipt of Shares (with such percentage beneficial ownership, control or direction being calculated in accordance with the applicable provisions of Applicable Laws).

Section 4.5 No Requirement to Issue Fractional Shares

The Borrower shall not be required to issue fractional Shares upon the conversion of the Debenture pursuant to this Article 4. If any fractional interest in a Share, would, except for the provisions of this Section 4.5, be deliverable upon the conversion of any amount hereunder, the number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share.

Section 4.6 Borrower to Have Shares Available

The Borrower covenants with the Lender that it will at all times keep and make available out of its authorised Shares, solely for the purpose of issue upon exercise of the Conversion Right, and have available to allot to the Lender, such number of Shares as shall then be issuable upon the conversion of this Debenture. The Borrower covenants with the Lender that all Shares which shall be so issuable shall be duly and validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable upon issuance.

Section 4.7 Certificate as to Adjustment

The Borrower shall from time to time, immediately after the occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment or readjustment as provided in Section 4.3, deliver an officer’s certificate to the Lender specifying the nature of the event requiring the same and the amount of the adjustment necessitated thereby and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Subject to the dispute resolution procedure in subsection 4.3(5), such certificate shall be binding and determinative of the adjustment to be made, absent manifest error.

Section 4.8 Shareholder of Record

For all purposes, on the Issue Date the Lender shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Shares into which the Principal Amount of this Debenture (or a portion thereof) is converted in accordance with Section 4.2.

Section 4.9 Resale Restrictions, Leg ending and Disclosure

By its acceptance hereof the Lender acknowledges that this Debenture and the Shares issuable upon conversion hereof will be subject to certain resale restrictions under applicable securities laws, and the Lender agrees to comply with all such restrictions and laws. The Lender further acknowledges and agrees that all Share certificates will bear any legends required by the Exchange, provided that such legend shall not be required on Share certificates issued at any time following the Registration Effective Date. The Lender acknowledges that the Borrower will be required to provide to the applicable securities regulatory authorities the identity and other personal information of the Lender and its principals and the Lender hereby agrees thereto.

Nothing in this section shall affect the right of the Lender to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
