Voting Information Registered ownership and beneficial ownership If your Shares are registered in your name with our transfer agent and share registry, Computershare Limited, then you are considered the "registered owner" for those Shares. If you are the registered owner of your Shares then you have the right to vote your Shares by proxy or attorney, or to attend the AGM and vote via the Virtual Shareholder Meeting platform. If your Shares are held through a bank, broker or other nominee, then you are the "beneficial owner" of the Shares, but you are not the "registered owner" of the Shares. As the beneficial owner of the Shares, you have the right to instruct your bank, broker or other nominee how to vote your Shares. In order to ensure your Shares are voted in the way you would like, you must provide voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee by the deadline provided by such bank, broker or other nominee. If you are a beneficial owner and do not provide your bank, broker or other nominee with voting instructions, under the rules of various national and regional securities exchanges,
Annual General Meeting 2024 5 the bank, broker or other nominee may generally vote on routine matters but cannot vote on non-routine matters (to the extent that there are non-routine matters). If the bank, broker or other nominee that holds your Shares votes on one or more matters, but does not receive instructions from you on how to vote your Shares on one or more non- routine matters (to the extent that there are non-routine matters), the bank, broker or other nominee will inform the Company that it does not have the authority to vote on such non- routine matters with respect to your Shares. Entitlement to vote at the AGM The directors have determined that the persons eligible to vote at the AGM are those who are Shareholders of the Company at 5:00pm (ET) on September 23, 2024 and, in accordance with Regulation 7.11.37 of the Corporations Regulations 2001 (Cth) (Australia), those who are registered Shareholders of the Company at 7:30am (AEDT) on November 19, 2024, being 3.30pm (ET) on November 18, 2024. Accordingly, transfers registered after that time will be disregarded in determining entitlements to attend and vote at the AGM. If you are not the registered owner of your Shares and you wish to vote at the AGM, please contact your bank, broker or other nominee for the procedures necessary to allow you to do so. Voting by proxy An eligible Shareholder can appoint a proxy or, where a Shareholder is entitled to two or more votes, the Shareholder may appoint two proxies. Where two proxies are appointed, a Shareholder may specify the number or proportion of votes to be exercised by each proxy appointed. If no number or proportion of votes is specified, each proxy appointed will be taken to exercise half of that Shareholder’s votes (disregarding fractions). An appointed proxy need not themselves be a Shareholder. A Proxy Card accompanies this Notice of Meeting. To be effective, your proxy (including the original or a certified copy of any power of attorney or other authority under which it is signed) must be received by the Company not less than 48 hours before the start of the AGM: (i) online: www.proxyvote.com; (ii) by mail: to Iris Energy Limited (d/b/a IREN) c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717; or (iii) by phone: by dialling 1-800-690-6903. You can direct your proxy how to vote by following the instructions on the Proxy Card. Shareholders are encouraged to direct their proxy how to vote on the Resolution.
Annual General Meeting 2024 6 If you wish to direct your proxy to vote on the Resolution in the manner recommended by the Board, then your Proxy Card should be completed as follows. For Against Abstain Annual General Meeting 1 Appointment of Byrons Audit as Australian auditor of the Company for the purposes of the Company's Australian Audited Financial Statements (as defined in the Notice of Meeting). ☒ ☐ ☐ 2 Change of Company name from Iris Energy Limited to IREN Limited. ☒ ☐ ☐ 3 Renewal of the proportional takeover provisions contained in Schedule 6 of the Company's Constitution for a period of three (3) years. ☒ ☐ ☐ Voting generally On a poll at an AGM, every Shareholder present at the AGM has one vote for each fully paid Share held by the Shareholder (subject to the rights of holders of B Class Shares) and in respect of which the Shareholder is entitled to vote, and a proportional fraction of a vote for each partly paid Share held by the Shareholder and in respect of which the Shareholder is entitled to vote. Where a person present at an AGM represents more than one Shareholder (whether personally, by proxy, attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by corporate representative) the person is entitled to one vote on a poll at the AGM for each fully paid Share the person represents (subject to the rights of holders of B Class Shares), and a proportional fraction of a vote for each partly paid Share the person represents. If a proxy is instructed to abstain from voting on a Resolution, they are directed not to vote on the Shareholder's behalf. On a poll, the Shares that are the subject of the proxy appointment will not be counted. Any directed proxies that are not voted on a poll at an AGM by a Shareholder's appointed proxy will automatically default to the Chair, who is required to vote proxies as directed on a poll at the AGM. If the Chair is appointed as your proxy (or is appointed your proxy by default), they can be directed how to vote by ticking the relevant boxes next to each item on the Proxy Card (i.e., 'for', 'against' or 'abstain').
Annual General Meeting 2024 7 The Chair intends to vote all undirected proxies IN FAVOUR of the Resolutions. Quorum The AGM will only proceed if a quorum is present. If a quorum is not present within 30 minutes after the time appointed for the AGM, the AGM will be adjourned.

In determining whether a quorum is present, each individual attending as a corporate representative, proxy or attorney is to be counted, except that: • an individual attending in more than one capacity is to be counted only once; and • if a Shareholder has appointed more than one corporate representative, proxy or attorney, only one is to be counted.
Annual General Meeting 2024 8 EXPLANATORY STATEMENT This Explanatory Statement (including the Annexures to it) and the Notice of Meeting are important documents. They should be read carefully. If you have any questions regarding the matters set out in this document, you should consult a professional adviser. This Explanatory Statement does not provide professional, legal, financial or tax advice. Capitalised terms used in this document which are not otherwise defined have the meanings given to them in the Dictionary section. BACKGROUND 1. Financial Reports Background Under section 317 of the Corporations Act, the Financial Report, Directors' Report and Auditor's Report of the Company in respect of the 2024 financial year will be laid before the AGM. The Financial Report contains the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its controlled entities as required to be prepared and lodged with ASIC in accordance with section 319 of the Corporations Act. As such, the Financial Report and the consolidated financial statements included therein have been prepared and audited in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act. The Company’s Financial Report is separate and distinct from the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on August 28, 2024, which includes the Company’s annual financial statements that have been prepared and audited in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. The Company’s Financial Report and the consolidated financial statements included therein are being presented to the Shareholders solely for the purposes of statutory compliance with the requirements of the Corporations Act. This item does not require a formal resolution to be put to the AGM and so no vote will be held. However, Shareholders may ask questions on the matters contained in the reports. Shareholders will also be able to ask questions of the Company’s auditor, who will attend the AGM. The reports are available on the Company's website, https://iren.com/investor/annual-reports. Shareholders are being provided with a reasonable opportunity to ask questions on these statements and reports ahead of the AGM. Shareholders may address written questions to the Chair about the management of the Company. All questions should be submitted to the Company in accordance with the instructions set out in the Notice of Meeting (under the heading "Participating at the virtual AGM").
Annual General Meeting 2024 9 The Chair of the AGM will allow Shareholders to ask questions of the Auditor or its representatives, which are submitted in writing by 11.59 pm November 12, 2024 (ET) and relevant to: (i) the conduct of the audit; (ii) the preparation and content of the Auditor’s Reports; (iii) the accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of its Australian Audited Financial Statements; (iv) the independence of the auditor in relation to the conduct of the audit. 2. Resolution 1 – Appointment of Byrons Audit as Australian auditor On or about October 27, 2022, in accordance with section 327A of the Corporations Act, the Company appointed Moore Australia as auditor of the Company for purposes of the Corporations Act. On or about December 14, 2022 (AEDT), in accordance with sections 327B(1)(a) of the Corporations Act, Moore Australia was approved at as the auditor of the Company at the Company's 2022 annual general meeting. Moore Australia has since completed a restructure from a partnership to a company structure and, as a result, the Company now seeks Shareholder approval for the appointment of Byrons Audit (a related entity of Moore Australia) as auditor of the Company in accordance with section 327B(1)(b) of the Corporations Act. For the avoidance of doubt, there has been no disagreement between Management or the Directors and Moore Australia. In accordance with section 328B of the Corporations Act, a notice in writing nominating Byrons Audit as Australian auditor has been given to the Company by a Shareholder. A copy of the notice is included in this Notice of Meeting at Annexure A. The appointment of Byrons Audit as Australian auditor will be by vote of Shareholders as an ordinary resolution. Byrons Audit has provided to the Company, and has not withdrawn, its written consent to act as auditor of the Company, in accordance with section 328A(1) of the Corporations Act. The appointment of Byrons Audit is solely for statutory reporting purposes under the Corporations Act. Such appointment is separate and distinct from the Company’s appointment of Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton LLP, who are the U.S. auditor of the Company. Recommendation of the Board The directors of the Company unanimously recommend that you vote IN FAVOUR of this Resolution.
Annual General Meeting 2024 10 3. Resolution 2 – Change of Company name Background On or about February 15, 2024, the Board approved a rebranding of the business, and the Company has since been conducting its business under the name IREN. In accordance with section 157(1) of the Corporations Act, the Company therefore now seeks special Shareholder approval for the legal change of the Company's name from Iris Energy Limited to IREN Limited. Following the successful passing of this resolution, the directors will be authorised to notify ASIC of the change and undertake all necessary steps to effectuate the name change, including updating the Company's Constitution. Recommendation of the Board The directors of the Company unanimously recommend that you vote IN FAVOUR of this Resolution. 4. Resolution 3 - Renewal of the Proportional Takeover Provisions Schedule 6 of the Company's Constitution contains proportional takeover provisions which prohibit the registration of transfers of shares or other securities acquired under a proportional takeover bid unless a resolution is passed by the Shareholders approving the bid ("Proportional Takeover Provisions"). The Corporations Act provides that these Proportional Takeover Provisions cease to apply at the end of three years from the date of their adoption (or last renewal). The Proportional Takeover Provisions were inserted in the Company's Constitution which was adopted on September 11, 2021. Following the successful passing of this resolution, the Proportional Takeover Provisions will be renewed on exactly the same terms as the current Proportional Takeover Provisions in Schedule 6 of the Company's Constitution and will operate for three years from the date of the AGM, unless renewed earlier. Section 648G(5) of the Corporations Act requires the following information to be provided to shareholders when they are considering the renewal of the Proportional Takeover Provisions: (A) What is a proportional takeover bid? A proportional takeover bid is a takeover bid where the bidder offers to buy only a specified proportion of each Shareholder’s shares in the target company. (B) Effect of the provisions proposed to be renewed: If a proportional takeover bid is made, the Directors must ensure that Shareholders vote on a resolution to approve the bid at least 14 days before the last day of the bid period or a later date allowed by ASIC. The vote is decided on a simple majority.
Annual General Meeting 2024 11 Each person who, as at the end of the day on which the first offer under the proportional takeover bid was made, held the class of shares in the Company in respect of which offers are made under the proportional takeover bid, is entitled to vote. The bidder and its associates are not allowed to vote. If the resolution is not passed, transfers giving effect to a contract resulting from the acceptance of an offer made under a proportional takeover bid cannot be registered. If the resolution is approved, or is taken to have been approved, the transfers must be registered if they comply with the Corporations Act and the Company’s Constitution. If the resolution is not voted on before the 14-day deadline specified in the Corporations Act, the bid will be taken to have been approved. The Proportional Takeover Provisions do not apply to full takeover bids. The renewed provisions will expire after three years, unless again renewed by Shareholders by a special resolution. (C) Reason for the resolution A proportional takeover bid means that control of a company may pass without Shareholders having the chance to sell all their shares to the bidder. The bidder may take control of the company without paying an adequate price. To deal with this possibility, the Corporations Act permits a company to provide in its constitution that if a proportional takeover bid is made, shareholders must vote on whether to accept or reject the proportional takeover bid and that decision will be binding on all the shareholders. The benefit of the Proportional Takeover Provisions is that they allow the Company’s Shareholders to decide collectively whether the proportional takeover bid is acceptable in principle, and it may ensure that any partial offer is appropriately priced. If the offer does proceed, individual Shareholders can then make a separate decision as to whether they wish to accept the bid for their shares. (D) Awareness of current acquisition proposals As at the date of this Notice, the Directors are not aware of any proposal for any person to acquire (or increase the extent of) a substantial interest in the Company from its current level. (E) Advantages and disadvantages of the Proportional Takeover Provisions There have been no proportional takeover bids for the Company while the Provisional Takeover Provisions have been in operation. Accordingly, there are no actual examples against which to assess the advantages and disadvantages of the Proportional Takeover Provisions from the Directors and Shareholders of the Company.
Annual General Meeting 2024 12 (F) Potential advantages and disadvantages of the proposed resolution for both Directors and Shareholders An advantage to the Directors of renewing the Proportional Takeover Provisions is that the Directors will be able to assess the Shareholders’ views on a proportional takeover bid should one be made. Otherwise, the Directors consider that the proposed renewal of the Proportional Takeover Provisions has no potential advantages or disadvantages for Directors given that they remain free to make a recommendation on whether a proportional takeover bid should be approved or rejected. The potential advantages of the Proportional Takeover Provisions for Shareholders of the Company include: • that the provisions give Shareholders an opportunity to consider the terms of a proportional takeover bid to determine whether it is in their best interests that it proceed and, on that basis, enables Shareholders to decide whether or not to accept the offer; • the provisions may discourage the making of a proportional takeover bid which may be opportunistic; • an increase in Shareholders’ bargaining power may assist in ensuring that the proportional takeover bid is adequately priced; and • knowing the view of the majority Shareholders may assist each individual Shareholder assessing the likely outcome of the proportional takeover bid and whether to approve or reject that bid. The potential disadvantages of the Proportional Takeover Provisions for Shareholders of the Company include: • that the provisions may make proportional takeover bids more difficult to succeed and therefore effectively discourage proportional takeover bids being made; • the provisions may reduce the freedom for Shareholders to sell some or all of their shares at a premium to persons seeking control of the Company and any takeover speculation element in the Company’s share price may also be reduced; • the chance of a proportional takeover bid being successful may be reduced due to the delay, cost and uncertainty in convening a general meeting; and • the provisions may be considered an additional restriction on the ability of individual Shareholders to deal freely with their shares. Recommendation of the Board The directors of the Company unanimously recommend that you vote IN FAVOUR of this Resolution.
