Item
6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

law. Australian law provides that a company or a related body corporate of the company may provide for indemnification of officers
and directors, except to the extent of any of the following liabilities incurred as an officer or director of the company:
| |
● |
a
liability owed to the company or a related body corporate of the company; |
| |
● |
a
liability for a pecuniary penalty order made under section 1317G or a compensation order under section 961M, 1317H, 1317HA, 1317HB,
1317HC or 1317HE of the Corporations Act; |
| |
● |
a
liability that is owed to someone other than the company or a related body corporate of the company and did not arise out of conduct
in good faith; or |
| |
● |
legal
costs incurred in defending an action for a liability incurred as an officer or director of the company if the costs are incurred: |
| |
○ |
in
defending or resisting proceedings in which the officer or director is found to have a liability for which they cannot be indemnified
as set out above; |
| |
○ |
in
defending or resisting criminal proceedings in which the officer or director is found guilty; |
| |
○ |
in
defending or resisting proceedings brought by the Australian Securities & Investments Commission or a liquidator for a court
order if the grounds for making the order are found by the court to have been established (except costs incurred in responding to
actions taken by the Australian Securities & Investments Commission or a liquidator as part of an investigation before commencing
proceedings for a court order); or |
| |
○ |
in
connection with proceedings for relief to the officer or a director under the Corporations Act, in which the court denies the relief. |
Constitution.
Our Constitution provides, that to the extent permitted by law, the Company indemnifies every director, executive officer or company
secretary of the Company against a liability to another person, other than the Company or a related body corporate of the Company, provided
that the provisions of the Corporations Act are complied with in relation to the giving of the indemnity and the liability does not arise
in respect of conduct involving a lack of good faith on the part of the officer.
Indemnification
Agreements. Pursuant to our form of deed of access, insurance and indemnity which is filed as Exhibit 10.4 to this registration statement,
we have agreed to indemnify our directors. MMA has agreed to indemnify each of its directors to the extent permitted by law against all
liabilities incurred while holding office, including indemnifying directors for any legal expenses incurred in defending proceedings
relating to their directorship of MMA. Any indemnified amounts must be repaid to MMA to the extent that a director is reimbursed from
an insurance policy maintained by MMA for the directors. MMA has also agreed to obtain and pay the premiums for insurance policies for
each of its directors, which include run-off cover for each director for a period of seven years after they cease to hold office.

Item
9. Undertakings
The
undersigned hereby undertakes:
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement:
(i)
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration
statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities
offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range
may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume
and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration
Fee” table in the effective registration statement.
(iii)
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or
any material change to such information in the registration statement;
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall
be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
(4)
To file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements required by Item 8.A. of Form 20-F
at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial statements and information otherwise required by
Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act need not be furnished, provided that the registrant includes in the prospectus, by means of a
post-effective amendment, financial statements required pursuant to this paragraph (4) and other information necessary to ensure that
all other information in the prospectus is at least as current as the date of those financial statements.
(5)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus
filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant
pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of
the time it was declared effective.
(6)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form
of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(7)
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed by the Registrant
pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on
Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration
statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement
or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into
the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract
of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that
was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim
for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer
or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer
or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification
by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant
to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all
of the requirements for filing on Form F-1 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned,
thereunto duly authorized, in Manly, New South Wales on January 26, 2026.
