related operative facts, commencing January 1, 2024, the Company transitioned from AUD as its functional currency to USD as its functional
currency. The functional currency of the Company’s subsidiary, Mobilicom Ltd. remains Israeli New Shekels. All references to “$”
(other than in our audited and unaudited consolidated financial statements) or “US$” in this prospectus refer to U.S. dollars.
All references to “AUD$” or “AUD” in this prospectus mean Australian dollars.
Our
fiscal year end is December 31. References to a particular “fiscal year” are to our fiscal year ended December 31 of that
calendar year. We report under International Financial Reporting Standards, or IFRS, as issued by the International Accounting Standards
Board, or IASB. None of the financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United
States, or U.S. GAAP.

Overview
We are a provider
of hardware products and software and cybersecurity solutions that we design, develop and manufacture and that are embedded into small-sized
drones or small-sized unmanned aerial vehicles, or SUAVs, and into robotic systems, or robotics. We hold both patented technology and
unique know-how. We are aiming to further develop our global customer base by increasing our number of design wins and targeted pilot
projects and ultimately cross-sell our other solutions to those same customers in order to become a leading end-to-end provider to SUAV
and robotics systems original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, who, in turn, sell their systems into the security and surveillance, process
industry (processing of bulk resources into other products), infrastructure inspection, first responders, homeland security, government
and defense and courier market segments. By “design win” we are referring to the large-scale and adoption of our products
by our OEM customers on an-ongoing basis. The “pilot projects” refer to initial small-scale sales and implementation. An “end-to-end”
provider is one that provides all of the key components its customers need for their products.
We aim to penetrate
the commercial segment of our markets by leveraging the experience we have gained in the defense segment of our markets. We believe that
our key competitive advantages are our ability to provide a near end-to-end solution to our customers, which enables us to have an insider’s
view of our customers’ needs as well as our holistic cybersecurity approach and highly secured offering, and outstanding performance
in harsh environments. This is evidenced by our recent design wins and pilot projects, and top-tier defense and commercial manufacturers
from United States, Israel and Europe. We further believe our products have performed well in harsh environmental conditions. Our solutions
have been deployed by our various customers worldwide, including in the United States, Europe, Israel and other Asian countries.

January 2024 Offering
On January 25, 2024, the Company
entered into a definitive agreement with certain institutional investors providing for the issuance of (i) 133,889,525 ordinary shares
represented by 486,871 ADSs, and (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 389,497,350 ordinary shares represented by
1,416,354 ADSs, in a registered direct offering at an offering price of $1.55 per ADS and $1.5499 per pre-funded warrant, for aggregate
gross proceeds of approximately $2.95 million. The offering closed on January 30, 2024.
In addition, in a concurrent
private placement, we issued the investors warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 523,386,875 ordinary shares represented by 1,903,225
ADSs at an exercise price of $1.55 per ADS, or the PIPE Warrants. The PIPE Warrants were immediately exercisable upon issuance and will
expire five years following the initial exercise date. The PIPE Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis if there is no effective
registration statement registering the ADSs underlying the warrants.
We
paid the placement agent in the registered direct offering and January 2024 Private Placement a cash placement fee equal to 6.5%
of the aggregate gross proceeds and a non-accountable expense allowance of 1.0% of the gross proceeds. The Company also agreed to reimburse
the placement agent’s actual and incurred expenses up to an aggregate of $75,000. The placement agent also received placement agent
warrants, or the Placement Agent Warrants, on substantially the same terms as the investors in the offering in an amount equal to 5.0%
of the aggregate number of ADSs sold in the registered direct offering (or warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 95,161 ADSs), at
an exercise price of $1.55 per ADSs, with an expiration date of five years from the closing date.
In
connection with the January 2024 Private Placement, the selling shareholders named in this prospectus may offer and sell up to an aggregate
of 549,556,150 ordinary shares, represented by 1,998,386 ADSs, consisting of: (i) an aggregate
of 523,386,875 ordinary shares represented by 1,903,225 ADSs issuable upon exercise of the PIPE Warrants, and (ii) an aggregate
of 26,169,275 ordinary shares represented by 95,161 ADSs issuable
upon exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants.

RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risks described
below and the risks described in our most recent Annual Report which are incorporated by reference herein, as well as the financial or
other information included in this prospectus or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including our consolidated financial statements
and the related notes, before you decide to buy our securities. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only risks facing
us. We may face additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial. Any of the risks
described below, and any such additional risks, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
In such case, you may lose all or part of your original investment.
The sale of a substantial amount of our ordinary shares, including
resale of the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrants held by the selling shareholders in the public market could adversely
affect the prevailing market price of our ordinary shares.
We are registering for
resale of 549,556,150 ordinary shares, represented by 1,998,386 ADSs. Sales of substantial
amounts of our securities in the public market, or the perception that such sales might occur, could adversely affect the market price
of our ordinary shares, and the market value of our other securities. We cannot predict if and when selling shareholders may sell such
shares in the public markets. Furthermore, in the future, we may issue additional ordinary shares or other equity or debt securities convertible
into ordinary shares. Any such issuance could result in substantial dilution to our existing shareholders and could cause our share price
to decline.
Part of our operations are conducted in Israel. Conditions
in Israel, including the recent attack by Hamas and other terrorist organizations and Israel’s war against them, may affect
our operations.
Although we are an Australian
company, our fully owned subsidiary and main operational, including our principal research and development facilities and sole manufacturing
facility, and certain of our key employees, officers and directors are located in Israel. Accordingly, political, economic and military
conditions in the Middle East may affect our business directly. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, a number of armed
conflicts have occurred between Israel and its neighboring countries and terrorist organizations active in the region, including Hamas
(an Islamist militia and political group in the Gaza Strip) and Hezbollah (an Islamist militia and political group in Lebanon).
In particular, in October
2023, Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and conducted a series of attacks on civilian and
military targets. Hamas also launched extensive rocket attacks on the Israeli population and industrial centers located along Israel’s
border with the Gaza Strip and in other areas within the State of Israel. These attacks resulted in thousands of deaths and injuries,
and Hamas additionally kidnapped many Israeli civilians and soldiers. Following the attack, Israel’s security cabinet declared war
against Hamas and commenced a military campaign against Hamas and these terrorist organizations in parallel continued rocket and terror
attacks. As a result of the events of October 7, 2023, the Israeli government declared that the country was at war and the Israeli military
began to call-up reservists for active duty. To date, none of our member of management nor employees is in active military reserve duty.
Military service call ups that result in absences of personnel from us for an extended period of time may materially and adversely affect
our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, since the commencement
of these events, there have been continued hostilities along Israel’s northern border with Lebanon (with the Hezbollah terror organization)
and southern border (with the Houthi movement in Yemen). It is possible that hostilities with Hezbollah in Lebanon will escalate, and
that other terrorist organizations, including Palestinian military organizations in the West Bank as well as other hostile countries will
join the hostilities. Such clashes may escalate in the future into a greater regional conflict. In addition, Iran recently launched a
direct attack on Israel involving hundreds of drones and missiles and has threatened to attack Israel and is widely believed to be developing
nuclear weapons. Iran is also believed to have a strong influence among extremist groups in the region, such as Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah
in Lebanon, the Houthi movement in Yemen and various rebel militia groups in Syria and Iraq. These situations may potentially escalate
in the future to more violent events which may affect Israel and us. Any hostilities, armed conflicts, terrorist activities involving
Israel or the interruption or curtailment of trade between Israel and its trading partners, or any political instability in the region
could adversely affect business conditions and our results of operations and could make it more difficult for us to raise capital and
could adversely affect the market price of our ordinary share. An escalation of tensions or violence might result in a significant downturn
in the economic or financial condition of Israel, which could have a material adverse effect on our operations in Israel and our business.
Parties with whom we do business have sometimes declined to travel to Israel during periods of heightened unrest or tension, forcing us
to make alternative arrangements when necessary in order to meet our business partners face to face. In addition, the political and security
situation in Israel may result in parties with whom we have agreements involving performance in Israel claiming that they are not obligated
to perform their commitments under those agreements pursuant to force majeure provisions in such agreements.
Since the war broke out on
October 7, 2023, our operations have not been adversely affected by this situation, and we have not experienced disruptions to our business
operations. As such, our product research and development and business development activities remain on track. However, the intensity
and duration of Israel’s current war against Hamas is difficult to predict at this stage, as are such war’s economic implications
on our business and operations and on Israel’s economy in general. If the war extends for a long period of time or expands to other
fronts, such as Lebanon, Syria and the West Bank, our operations may be adversely affected.
Additionally, political uprisings,
social unrest and violence in various countries in the Middle East, including Israel’s neighbor Syria, have affected the political
stability of those countries. This instability may lead to deterioration of the political relationships that exist between Israel and
certain countries and have raised concerns regarding security in the region and the potential for armed conflict. In addition, Iran has
threatened to attack Israel. Iran is also believed to have a strong influence among the Syrian government, Hamas and Hezbollah. These
situations may potentially escalate in the future into more violent events which may affect Israel and us. These situations, including
conflicts which involved missile strikes against civilian targets in various parts of Israel have in the past negatively affected business
conditions in Israel.
Our insurance does not cover
losses that may occur as a result of events associated with war and terrorism. Although the Israeli government currently covers the reinstatement
value of direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, we cannot assure you that this government coverage will be
maintained or that it will sufficiently cover our potential damages. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse
effect on our business. Any armed conflicts or political instability in the region would likely negatively affect business conditions
and could harm our results of operations.
Finally, political conditions within Israel may
affect our operations. Israel has held five general elections between 2019 and 2022, and prior to October 2023, the Israeli government
pursued extensive changes to Israel’s judicial system, which sparked extensive political debate and unrest. To date, these initiatives
have been substantially put on hold. Actual or perceived political instability in Israel or any negative changes in the political environment,
may individually or in the aggregate adversely affect.

assumptions and assessments made by our management in light of their experience and their perception of historical trends, current conditions,
expected future developments and other factors they believe to be appropriate.
Important factors that could
cause actual results, developments and business decisions to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements
include, among other things:

● |
our ability to implement our growth strategies; |
|
● |
our competitive advantages; |
|
● |
the development of new products and services; |
|

|
● |
our ability to maintain good business relationships with our customers, suppliers and other strategic partners; |

● |
our ability to protect intellectual property; |
|
● |
our ability to retain key personnel; |

● |
the absence of material adverse changes in the industry or global economy; and |
|
● |
those factors referred to in our most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F in “Item 3. Key Information - D. Risk Factors,” “Item 4. Information on the Company,” and “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects,” as well as in our Annual Report on Form 20-F generally, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus. |
Readers are urged to carefully
review and consider the various disclosures made throughout this prospectus and any prospectus supplement, which are designed to advise
interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
You should not put undue reliance
on any forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements are made as of the date hereof, and we undertake no obligation to publicly
update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required

USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive any
proceeds from the sale of the ADSs by the selling shareholders. All net proceeds from the sale of the ordinary shares represented by ADSs
covered by this prospectus will go to the selling shareholders. We expect that the selling shareholders will sell the ADSs as described
under “Plan of Distribution.”
We intend to use the net
proceeds from the exercise of the PIPE Warrants and/or the Placement Agent Warrants, if any, for operations expansion under our main target
markets in the United States, Israel and Europe, and general corporate purposes (which for the avoidance of doubt may include acquisitions,
in the Company’s discretion), including working capital. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many
factors, and we cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses of the net proceeds from this offering. Accordingly, our management
will have significant discretion and flexibility in applying the net proceeds of this offering. We have no current commitments or binding
agreements with respect to any material acquisition of or investment in any technologies, products or companies.
DIVIDEND POLICY
We have not declared or paid
any dividends on our ordinary shares, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. Our board of directors
presently intends to reinvest all earnings in the continued development and operation of our business.
Payment of dividends in the
future, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors. If our board of directors elects to pay dividends, the form, frequency
and amount will depend upon our future operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial conditions, contractual
restrictions and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS
The ordinary shares being offered by the selling
shareholders are those previously issued to the selling shareholders, and those issuable to the selling shareholders, upon exercise of
the PIPE Warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants. For additional information regarding the issuances of the foregoing warrants, see
“Prospectus Summary – Description of the Transaction” above. We are registering the ordinary shares represented by ADSs
underlying the PIPE Warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants in order to permit the selling shareholders to offer the ordinary shares
represented by ADSs for resale from time to time. Except for the ownership of ordinary shares represented by ADSs and the PIPE Warrants
or the Placement Agent Warrants, as the case may be, the selling shareholders have not had any material relationship with us within the
past three years.
The table below lists the selling shareholders
and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the ordinary shares by each of the selling shareholders. The second column
lists the number of ordinary shares beneficially owned by each selling shareholder, based on its ownership of the ordinary shares and
warrants, as of September 6, 2024, assuming exercise of warrants held by the selling shareholders on that date, without regard to any limitations
on exercises.
The third column lists the ordinary shares being
offered by this prospectus by the selling shareholders.
This prospectus generally covers the resale of
the sum of (i) the number of ordinary shares issued to the selling shareholders in the “Prospectus Summary – Description of
the Transaction” described above and (ii) the maximum number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants, determined
as if the outstanding warrants were exercised in full as of the trading day immediately preceding the date this registration statement
was initially filed with the SEC, each as of the trading day immediately preceding the applicable date of determination and all subject
to adjustment, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the warrants. The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the ordinary
shares offered by the selling shareholders pursuant to this prospectus.
Under the terms of the PIPE Warrants and the Placement
Agent Warrants, a selling shareholder may not exercise the warrants to the extent such exercise would cause such selling shareholder,
together with its affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of ordinary shares which would exceed 4.99% or 9.99%,
as applicable, of our then outstanding ordinary shares following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination ordinary
shares issuable upon exercise of the PIPE Warrants that have not been exercised. The number of ordinary shares in the second column does
not reflect this limitation. The selling shareholders may sell all, some or none of their ordinary shares in this offering. See “Plan
of Distribution.”

DESCRIPTION OF SHARE CAPITAL
The following description
of our ordinary shares is only a summary. We encourage you to read our Constitution, which is included as an exhibit to this registration
statement, of which this prospectus forms a part.
We are a public company limited
by shares registered under the Corporations Act by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, or ASIC. Our corporate affairs
are principally governed by our Constitution, the common law applicable to Australia and the Corporations Act.
In general, our Constitution
addresses similar matters to those typically addressed in a U.S. company’s charter documents. Notably, however, we do not have a
limit on our authorized share capital, the concept of par value is not recognized under Australian law and we may at any time convert
an ordinary share into a preference share and may convert a preference share into an ordinary share (subject in all cases to the terms
of those securities), as further discussed under “—Our Constitution.”
Subject to restrictions on
the issue of securities in our Constitution and the Corporations Act and any other applicable law, we may at any time issue shares and
grant options or warrants on any terms, with the rights and restrictions and for the consideration that our board of directors determine.
The rights and restrictions
attaching to ordinary shares are derived through a combination of our Constitution, the common law applicable to Australia, the Corporations
Act and other applicable law. A general summary of some of the rights and restrictions attaching to our ordinary shares are summarized
below. Each ordinary shareholder is entitled to receive notice of, and to be present, vote and speak at, general meetings.
As of September 6, 2024, we had (i) 1,849,947,518 ordinary shares outstanding
(which number assumes the exercise in full of the pre-funded warrants) (equivalent to 6,727,081 ADSs), (ii) outstanding options granted
to employees, directors and consultants to purchase an aggregate of 272,645,379 ordinary shares (equivalent to 991,437 ADSs) , at a weighted
average exercise price of $0.01; (iii) outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 549,556,150 ordinary shares (equivalent to 1,998,386
ADSs) which exercise at $1.55 and 806,122,625 ordinary shares (equivalent to 2,931,355 ADSs) which exercise prices ranging from $5.00
to $5.16.
Our Constitution
Our Constitution is similar
in nature to the bylaws of a U.S. corporation. It does not provide for or prescribe any specific objectives or purposes of Mobilicom.
Our Constitution is subject to the terms of the Corporations Act. It may be amended or repealed and replaced by special resolution of
shareholders, which is a resolution passed by at least 75% of the votes cast by shareholders entitled to vote on the resolution.
Under Australian law, a company
has the legal capacity and powers of an individual both within and outside Australia. The material provisions of our Constitution are
summarized below. This summary is not intended to be complete nor to constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of
our shareholders. Our Constitution is filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report.
Interested Directors
A director may not vote in
respect of any contract, matter or arrangement in which the director has, directly or indirectly, any material interest according to our
Constitution. Such director must not be counted in a quorum, must not vote on the matter and must not be present at the meeting while
the matter is being considered. However, that director may execute or otherwise act in respect of that contract or arrangement (if properly
approved by the non-interested directors) notwithstanding any material personal interest.
Unless a relevant exception
applies, the Corporations Act requires our directors to provide disclosure of certain interests or conflicts of interests and prohibits
directors from voting on matters in which they have a material personal interest and from being present at the meeting while the matter
is being considered. In addition, subject to certain exceptions, the Corporations Act requires shareholder approval of any provision of
related party benefits to our directors.
Borrowing Powers Exercisable by Directors
Pursuant to our Constitution,
the management and control of our business affairs are vested in our board of directors. Our board of directors has the power to raise
or borrow money, and charge any of our property or business or any uncalled capital, and may issue debentures or give any other security
for any of our debts, liabilities or obligations or of any other person, in each case, in the manner and on terms it deems fit subject
in all cases to the Corporations Act and other applicable laws.
Retirement of Directors
Pursuant to our Constitution,
at each annual general meeting the number closest to (but not exceeding) one-third of the directors, other than the managing director,
must retire. In addition, any director appointed by other directors in the year preceding the annual general meeting (and is not counted
in determining the number of directors who must retire by rotation). The director/s who retire by rotation will be the longest in office
since their last election/re-election or, in the case of directors appointed on the same date, the person agreed between them or determined
by lot. A director, other than the director who is the Chief Executive Officer, must retire from office at the conclusion of the third
annual general meeting after which the director was elected. Retired directors are eligible for a re-election to the board of directors
unless disqualified from acting as a director under the Corporations Act or our Constitution.
Rights and Restrictions on Classes of Shares
The rights attaching to our
ordinary shares are detailed in our Constitution. Our Constitution provides that our directors may issue shares with preferred, deferred
or other special rights, whether in relation to dividends, voting, return of share capital, or otherwise as our board of directors may
determine, however a new class of share with terms not expressly for in our Constitution will require shareholder approval. Subject to
any approval which is required from our shareholders under the Corporations Act (see “—Exemptions from Certain Nasdaq Corporate
Governance Rules” and “—Change of Control”), any rights and restrictions attached to a class of shares, we may
issue further shares on such terms and conditions as our board of directors resolve. Currently, our outstanding share capital consists
of only one class of ordinary shares.
Our Constitution allows us
at any time convert an ordinary share into a preference share and to convert a preference share into an ordinary share; however, the Corporations
Act requires that we obtain shareholder approval in connection with such a conversion.
Dividend Rights
Our board of directors may
from time to time determine to pay dividends to shareholders. All dividends unclaimed for one year after having been declared may be invested
or otherwise made use of by our board of directors for our benefit until claimed or otherwise disposed of in accordance with our Constitution.
There have been no dividends paid to ordinary shareholders to date.
Voting Rights
Under our Constitution, subject
to any express rights and restrictions attaching to a class of shares, each shareholder has one vote on a show of hands at a meeting of
the shareholders unless a poll is demanded under the Constitution or the Corporations Act. On a poll vote, each shareholder shall have
one vote for each fully paid share and a fractional vote for each share held by that shareholder that is not fully paid, such fraction
being equivalent to the proportion of the amount that has been paid to such date on that share (the Company does not currently have any
partly paid shares on issue). Under Australian law, shareholders of a public company are not permitted to approve corporate matters by
written consent. Our Constitution does not provide for cumulative voting.
Note that ADS holders may
not directly vote at a meeting of the shareholders but may instruct the depositary to vote the number of deposited ordinary shares their
ADSs represent.
Right to Share in Our Profits
Pursuant to our Constitution,
our shareholders are entitled to participate in our profits only by payment of dividends. Our board of directors may from time to time
determine to pay dividends to the shareholders; however, no dividend is payable except in accordance with the thresholds set out in the
Corporations Act.
Rights to Share in the Surplus in the Event
of Liquidation
Our Constitution provides
for the right of shareholders to participate in a surplus in the event of our liquidation, subject to the rights attaching to a class
of shares.
No Redemption Provision for Ordinary Shares
There are no redemption provisions
in our Constitution in relation to ordinary shares. Under our Constitution, any preference shares may be issued on the terms that they
are, or may at our option be, liable to be redeemed.
Variation or Cancellation of Share Rights
Subject to the terms of issue
of shares of that class, the rights attached to shares in a class of shares may only be varied or cancelled by a special resolution of
Mobilicom together with either:
| ● | a special resolution passed
at a separate general meeting of members holding shares in the class; or |
| ● | the written consent of members
with at least 75% of the shares in the class. |
Directors May Make Calls
Our Constitution provides
that subject to the terms on which the shares have been issued directors may make calls on a shareholder of a partly paid share for amounts
unpaid on shares held by that shareholder, other than monies payable at fixed times under the conditions of allotment. Shares represented
by our ADSs issued in this offering will be fully paid and will not be subject to calls by directors. We do not currently have any partly
paid shares on issue, all shares are fully paid ordinary shares.
General Meetings of Shareholders
General meetings of shareholders
may be called by our board of directors. Except as permitted under the Corporations Act, shareholders may not convene a meeting. The Corporations
Act requires the directors to call and arrange to hold a general meeting on the request of shareholders with at least 5% of the votes
that may be cast at a general meeting. Notice of the proposed meeting of our shareholders is required at least 21 clear days prior to
such meeting under the Corporations Act.
We must hold an annual general
meeting within five months of the end of each fiscal year. Our end of fiscal year is currently 31 December each year. At the annual general
meeting, shareholders typically consider the annual financial report, directors’ report and auditor’s report and vote on matters,
including the election of directors. We may also hold other meetings of shareholders from time to time. The annual general meeting must
be held in addition to any other meetings which we may hold.
Unless the law (including
the Corporations Law) or our Constitution requires a special resolution, a resolution of shareholders is passed if more than 50% of the
votes at the meeting are cast in favour of the resolution by shareholders in person or proxy who are entitled to vote. A special resolution
is passed if the notice of meeting sets out the intention to propose the special resolution and it is passed if at least 75% of the votes
at the meeting are cast by shareholders in person or proxy entitled to vote upon the relevant resolution. A special resolution usually
involves more important matters affecting us or the rights of some or all of our shareholders. Special resolutions are required in a variety
of circumstances under our Constitution and the Corporations Act, including without limitation:
| ● | to change our company type; |
| ● | to amend or replace our Constitution; |
| ● | to approve the terms of issue
of preference shares; |
| ● | to approve the variation of
class rights of any class of shareholders; |
| ● | to convert one class of shares
into another class of shares; |
| ● | to approve certain buy backs
of shares; |
| ● | to approve a selective capital
reduction of our shares; |
| ● | to approve financially assisting
a person to acquire our shares; and |
| ● | with the leave of an authorized
Australian court, to approve our voluntary winding up. |
Foreign Ownership Regulation
There are no limitations on
the rights of non-Australian entities to own securities imposed by our Constitution. However, acquisitions and proposed acquisitions of
securities in Australian companies may be subject to review and approval by the Australian Federal Treasurer under the Foreign Acquisitions
and Takeovers Act 1975 and the Foreign Acquisition and Takeovers Regulations 2015, or the FATA, which generally applies to acquisitions
or proposed acquisitions:
| ● | by a foreign person or their
associates (as defined in the FATA) of a direct interest (generally constituted by an interest of 10% or more) in a company which operates
a business that meets the criteria of a ‘national security business’ regardless of value; |
| ● | by ‘foreign government
investors’ (as defined in the FATA) acquiring a direct interest (generally constituted by an interest of 10% or more) in a company
regardless of value; |
| ● | by a foreign person (as defined
in the FATA) or associated foreign persons that would result in such persons having an interest in 20% or more of the issued shares of,
or control of 20% or more of the voting power in, an Australian company; and |
| ● | by two or more non-associated
foreign persons that would result in such foreign person having an interest in 40% or more of the issued shares of, or control of 40%
or more of the voting power in, an Australian company, where the Australian company is valued above the monetary threshold prescribed
by FATA (as set out above). |
However, no such review or
approval under the FATA is required if the foreign acquirer is a U.S. entity and the value of the target is less than AUD$1,339 million.
The above should be considered
an overview only. The application of the FATA is complex and requires an assessment of the circumstances and nature of a particular investment.
For example, varying rules exist for acquisitions in agricultural land or businesses deemed to be ‘sensitive businesses’.
The Australian Federal Treasurer may prevent a
proposed acquisition in the above categories or impose conditions on such acquisition if the Treasurer is satisfied that the acquisition
would be contrary to the national interest. If a foreign person acquires shares or an interest in shares in an Australian company in
contravention of the FATA, the Australian Federal Treasurer may order the divestiture of such person’s shares or interest in shares
in that Australian company. There are also civil and criminal penalties which may apply to breaches of the FATA.
In addition, if we were to
become a ‘foreign person’ for the purposes of the FATA we would be required to obtain the approval of the Australian Treasurer
to undertake certain acquisitions of Australian entities or businesses.
Ownership Threshold
There are no provisions in
our Constitution that require a shareholder to disclose ownership above a certain threshold. Our shareholders are also subject to disclosure
requirements under U.S. securities laws.
Issues of Shares and Change in Capital
Subject to our Constitution,
the Corporations Act and any other applicable law, we may at any time issue shares and grant options or warrants on any terms, with preferred,
deferred or other special rights and restrictions and for the consideration and other terms that the directors determine. The issue of
shares to ‘related parties’ (which include directors and their associated entities) on terms which are not ‘arm’s
length’ or ‘reasonable remuneration’ would require the approval of shareholders subject to certain exceptions.
Subject to the requirements
of our Constitution, the Corporations Act and any other applicable law, including relevant shareholder approvals, we may consolidate or
divide our share capital into a larger or smaller number by resolution, reduce our share capital (provided that the reduction is fair
and reasonable to our shareholders as a whole and does not materially prejudice our ability to pay creditors) or buy back our ordinary
shares whether under an equal access buy-back or on a selective basis.
Change of Control
Takeovers of listed Australian
public companies, such as Mobilicom are regulated by the Corporations Act, which prohibits the acquisition of a “relevant interest”
in issued voting shares in a listed company if the acquisition will lead to that person’s or someone else’s voting power in
Mobilicom (when aggregated with their “associates”) increasing from 20% or below to more than 20% or increasing from a starting
point that is above 20% and below 90%, subject to a range of exceptions.
Generally, a person will have
a relevant interest in securities if the person:
| ● | is the holder of the securities; |
| ● | has power to exercise, or control
the exercise of, a right to vote attached to the securities; or |
| ● | has the power to dispose of,
or control the exercise of a power to dispose of, the securities, including any indirect or direct power or control. |
If, at a particular time,
a person has a relevant interest in issued securities and the person:
| ● | has entered or enters into an
agreement with another person with respect to the securities; |
| ● | has given or gives another person
an enforceable right, or has been or is given an enforceable right by another person, in relation to the securities (whether the right
is enforceable presently or in the future and whether or not on the fulfillment of a condition); |
| ● | has granted or grants an option
to, or has been or is granted an option by, another person with respect to the securities; or |
|
● |
the other person would have a relevant interest in the securities if the agreement were performed, the right enforced or the option exercised; |
the other person is taken to already
have a relevant interest in the securities.
There are a number of exceptions
to the above prohibition on acquiring a relevant interest in issued voting shares above 20%. In general terms, some of the more significant
exceptions include:
|
● |
when the acquisition results from the acceptance of an offer under a formal takeover bid; |
|
● |
when the acquisition is conducted on market by or on behalf of the bidder under a takeover bid, the acquisition occurs during the bid period, the bid is for all the voting shares in a bid class and the bid is unconditional or only conditioned on prescribed matters set out in the Corporations Act; |
|
● |
when shareholders of Mobilicom approve the takeover by resolution passed at general meeting; |
|
● |
an acquisition by a person if, throughout the six months before the acquisition, that person or any other person has had voting power in Mobilicom of at least 19% and, as a result of the acquisition, none of the relevant persons would have voting power in Mobilicom more than three percentage points higher than they had six months before the acquisition; |
|
● |
when the acquisition results from the issue of securities under a rights issue; |
|
● |
when the acquisition results from the issue of securities under dividend reinvestment schemes; |
|
● |
when the acquisition results from the issue of securities under underwriting arrangements; |
|
● |
when the acquisition results from the issue of securities through operation of law; |
|
● |
an acquisition that arises through the acquisition of a relevant interest in another listed company which is listed on a prescribed financial market or a financial market approved by ASIC; |
|
● |
an acquisition arising from an auction of forfeited shares conducted on-market; or |
|
● |
an acquisition arising through a compromise, arrangement, liquidation or buy-back. |
Breaches of the takeovers
provisions of the Corporations Act are criminal offenses. ASIC and the Australian Takeover Panel have a wide range of powers relating
to breaches of takeover provisions, including the ability to make orders canceling contracts, freezing transfers of, and rights attached
to, securities, and forcing a party to dispose of securities. There are certain defenses to breaches of the takeover provisions provided
in the Corporations Act.
Access to and Inspection of Documents
Inspection of our records
is governed by the Corporations Act. Any member of the public has the right to inspect or obtain copies of our registers on the payment
of a prescribed fee provided that the inspection is for a prescribed purpose. Shareholders are not required to pay a fee for inspection
of our registers or minute books of the meetings of shareholders. Other corporate records, including minutes of directors’ meetings,
financial records and other documents, are not open for inspection by shareholders. Where a shareholder is acting in good faith and an
inspection is deemed to be made for a proper purpose, a shareholder may apply to the court to make an order for inspection of our books.
DESCRIPTION OF AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARES
American Depositary Shares
The Bank of New York Mellon,
as depositary, will register and deliver ADSs. Each ADS will represent shares (or a right to receive shares) deposited with the HSBC Bank
Australia Limited, as custodian for the depositary in Australia. Each ADS will also represent any other securities, cash or other property
which may be held by the depositary under the deposit agreement. The depositary’s office at which the ADSs will be and its principal
executive office are located at 240 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10286.
You may hold ADSs either (A)
directly (i) by having an American Depositary Receipt, also referred to as an ADR, which is a certificate evidencing a specific number
of ADSs, registered in your name, or (ii) by having uncertificated ADSs registered in your name, or (B) indirectly by holding a security
entitlement in ADSs through your broker or other financial institution that is a direct or indirect participant in The Depository Trust
Company, also called DTC. If you hold ADSs directly, you are a registered ADS holder, also referred to as an ADS holder. This description
assumes you are an ADS holder. If you hold the ADSs indirectly, you must rely on the procedures of your broker or other financial institution
to assert the rights of ADS holders described in this section. You should consult with your broker or financial institution to find out
what those procedures are.
Registered holders of uncertificated
ADSs will receive statements from the depositary confirming their holdings.
As an ADS holder, we will
not treat you as one of our shareholders and you will not have shareholder rights. Australian law governs shareholder rights. The depositary
will be the holder of the shares underlying your ADSs. As a registered holder of ADSs, you will have ADS holder rights. A deposit agreement
among us, the depositary, ADS holders and all other persons indirectly or beneficially holding ADSs sets out ADS holder rights as well
as the rights and obligations of the depositary. New York law governs the deposit agreement and the ADSs.
The following is a summary
of the material provisions of the deposit agreement. For more complete information, you should read the entire deposit agreement and the
form of ADR.
Dividends and Other Distributions
How will you receive dividends and other
distributions on the shares?
The depositary has agreed
to pay or distribute to ADS holders the cash dividends or other distributions it or the custodian receives on shares or other deposited
securities, upon payment or deduction of its fees and expenses. You will receive these distributions in proportion to the number of shares
your ADSs represent.
Cash. The depositary
will convert any cash dividend or other cash distribution we pay on the shares into U.S. dollars, if it can do so on a reasonable basis
and can transfer the U.S. dollars to the United States. If that is not possible or if any government approval is needed and cannot be
obtained, the deposit agreement allows the depositary to distribute the foreign currency only to those ADS holders to whom it is possible
to do so. It will hold the foreign currency it cannot convert for the account of the ADS holders who have not been paid. It will not invest
the foreign currency and it will not be liable for any interest.
Before making a distribution,
any withholding taxes, or other governmental charges that must be paid will be deducted. See “Taxation.” The depositary will
distribute only whole U.S. dollars and cents and will round fractional cents to the nearest whole cent. If the exchange rates fluctuate
during a time when the depositary cannot convert the foreign currency, you may lose some of the value of the distribution.
Shares. The
depositary may distribute additional ADSs representing any shares we distribute as a dividend or free distribution. The depositary will
only distribute whole ADSs. It will sell shares which would require it to deliver a fraction of an ADS (or ADSs representing those shares)
and distribute the net proceeds in the same way as it does with cash. If the depositary does not distribute additional ADSs, the outstanding
ADSs will also represent the new shares. The depositary may sell a portion of the distributed shares (or ADSs representing those shares)
sufficient to pay its fees and expenses in connection with that distribution.
Rights to purchase additional
shares. If we offer holders of our securities any rights to subscribe for additional shares or any other rights, the
depositary may (i) exercise those rights on behalf of ADS holders, (ii) distribute those rights to ADS holders or (iii) sell those rights
and distribute the net proceeds to ADS holders, in each case after deduction or upon payment of its fees and expenses. To the extent the
depositary does not do any of those things, it will allow the rights to lapse. In that case, you will receive no value for them. The
depositary will exercise or distribute rights only if we ask it to and provide satisfactory assurances to the depositary that it is legal
to do so. If the depositary will exercise rights, it will purchase the securities to which the rights relate and distribute those securities
or, in the case of shares, new ADSs representing the new shares, to subscribing ADS holders, but only if ADS holders have paid the exercise
price to the depositary. U.S. securities laws may restrict the ability of the depositary to distribute rights or ADSs or other securities
issued on exercise of rights to all or certain ADS holders, and the securities distributed may be subject to restrictions on transfer.
Other Distributions. The
depositary will send to ADS holders anything else we distribute on deposited securities by any means it thinks is legal, fair and practical.
If it cannot make the distribution in that way, the depositary has a choice. It may decide to sell what we distributed and distribute
the net proceeds, in the same way as it does with cash. Or, it may decide to hold what we distributed, in which case ADSs will also represent
the newly distributed property. However, the depositary is not required to distribute any securities (other than ADSs) to ADS holders
unless it receives satisfactory evidence from us that it is legal to make that distribution. The depositary may sell a portion of the
distributed securities or property sufficient to pay its fees and expenses in connection with that distribution. U.S. securities laws
may restrict the ability of the depositary to distribute securities to all or certain ADS holders, and the securities distributed may
be subject to restrictions on transfer.
The depositary is not responsible
if it decides that it is unlawful or impractical to make a distribution available to any ADS holders. We have no obligation to register
ADSs, shares, rights or other securities under the Securities Act. We also have no obligation to take any other action to permit
the distribution of ADSs, shares, rights or anything else to ADS holders. This means that you may not receive the distributions we
make on our shares or any value for them if it is illegal or impractical for us to make them available to you.
Deposit, Withdrawal and Cancellation
How are ADSs issued?
The depositary will deliver
ADSs if you or your broker deposits shares or evidence of rights to receive shares with the custodian. Upon payment of its fees and expenses
and of any taxes or charges, such as stamp taxes or stock transfer taxes or fees, the depositary will register the appropriate number
of ADSs in the names you request and will deliver the ADSs to or upon the order of the person or persons that made the deposit.
How can ADS holders withdraw the deposited
securities?
You may surrender your ADSs
to the depositary for the purpose of withdrawal. Upon payment of its fees and expenses and of any taxes or charges, such as stamp taxes
or stock transfer taxes or fees, the depositary will deliver the shares and any other deposited securities underlying the ADSs to
the ADS holder or a person the ADS holder designates at the office of the custodian. Or, at your request, risk and expense, the depositary
will deliver the deposited securities at its office, if feasible. However, the depositary is not required to accept surrender of ADSs
to the extent it would require delivery of a fraction of a deposited share or other security. The depositary may charge you a fee and
its expenses for instructing the custodian regarding delivery of deposited securities.
How do ADS holders interchange between certificated
ADSs and uncertificated ADSs?
You may surrender your ADR
to the depositary for the purpose of exchanging your ADR for uncertificated ADSs. The depositary will cancel that ADR and will send to
the ADS holder a statement confirming that the ADS holder is the registered holder of uncertificated ADSs. Upon receipt by the depositary
of a proper instruction from a registered holder of uncertificated ADSs requesting the exchange of uncertificated ADSs for certificated
ADSs, the depositary will execute and deliver to the ADS holder an ADR evidencing those ADSs.
Voting Rights
How do you vote?
ADS holders may instruct the
depositary how to vote the number of deposited shares their ADSs represent. If we request the depositary to solicit your voting instructions
(and we are not required to do so), the depositary will notify you of a shareholders’ meeting and send or make voting materials
available to you. Those materials will describe the matters to be voted on and explain how ADS holders may instruct the depositary how
to vote. For instructions to be valid, they must reach the depositary by a date set by the depositary. The depositary will try, as far
as practical, subject to the laws of Australia and the provisions of our articles of association or similar documents, to vote or to have
its agents vote the shares or other deposited securities as instructed by ADS holders. If we do not request the depositary to solicit
your voting instructions, you can still send voting instructions, and, in that case, the depositary may try to vote as you instruct, but
it is not required to do so.
Except by instructing the
depositary as described above, you won’t be able to exercise voting rights unless you surrender your ADSs and withdraw the shares.
However, you may not know about the meeting enough in advance to withdraw the shares. In any event, the depositary will not exercise
any discretion in voting deposited securities and it will only vote or attempt to vote as instructed.
We cannot assure you that
you will receive the voting materials in time to ensure that you can instruct the depositary to vote the shares represented by your ADSs.
In addition, the depositary and its agents are not responsible for failing to carry out voting instructions or for the manner of carrying
out voting instructions. This means that you may not be able to exercise voting rights and there may be nothing you can do if the
shares represented by your ADSs are not voted as you requested.
In order to give you a reasonable
opportunity to instruct the depositary as to the exercise of voting rights relating to Deposited Securities, if we request the Depositary
to act, we agree to give the depositary notice of any such meeting and details concerning the matters to be voted upon at least 45 days
in advance of the meeting date.

Any charges incurred by the depositary or its agents for servicing the deposited securities |
|
As necessary |
The depositary collects its
fees for delivery and surrender of ADSs directly from investors depositing shares or surrendering ADSs for the purpose of withdrawal or
from intermediaries acting for them. The depositary collects fees for making distributions to investors by deducting those fees from the
amounts distributed or by selling a portion of distributable property to pay the fees. The depositary may collect its annual fee for depositary
services by deduction from cash distributions or by directly billing investors or by charging the book-entry system accounts of participants
acting for them. The depositary may collect any of its fees by deduction from any cash distribution payable (or by selling a portion of
securities or other property distributable) to ADS holders that are obligated to pay those fees. The depositary may generally refuse to
provide fee-attracting services until its fees for those services are paid.
From time to time, the depositary
may make payments to us to reimburse us for costs and expenses generally arising out of establishment and maintenance of the ADS program,
waive fees and expenses for services provided to us by the depositary or share revenue from the fees collected from ADS holders. In performing
its duties under the deposit agreement, the depositary may use brokers, dealers, foreign currency dealers or other service providers that
are owned by or affiliated with the depositary and that may earn or share fees, spreads or commissions.
The depositary may convert
currency itself or through any of its affiliates, or the custodian or we may convert currency and pay U.S. dollars to the depositary.
Where the depositary converts currency itself or through any of its affiliates, the depositary acts as principal for its own account and
not as agent, advisor, broker or fiduciary on behalf of any other person and earns revenue, including, without limitation, transaction
spreads, that it will retain for its own account. The revenue is based on, among other things, the difference between the exchange
rate assigned to the currency conversion made under the deposit agreement and the rate that the depositary or its affiliate receives when
buying or selling foreign currency for its own account. The depositary makes no representation that the exchange rate used or obtained
by it or its affiliate in any currency conversion under the deposit agreement will be the most favorable rate that could be obtained at
the time or that the method by which that rate will be determined will be the most favorable to ADS holders, subject to the depositary’s
obligation to act without negligence or bad faith. The methodology used to determine exchange rates used in currency conversions
made by the depositary is available upon request. Where the custodian converts currency, the custodian has no obligation to obtain the
most favorable rate that could be obtained at the time or to ensure that the method by which that rate will be determined will be the
most favorable to ADS holders, and the depositary makes no representation that the rate is the most favorable rate and will not be liable
for any direct or indirect losses associated with the rate. In certain instances, the depositary may receive dividends or other
distributions from us in U.S. dollars that represent the proceeds of a conversion of foreign currency or translation from foreign currency
at a rate that was obtained or determined by us and, in such cases, the depositary will not engage in, or be responsible for, any foreign
currency transactions and neither it nor we make any representation that the rate obtained or determined by us is the most favorable rate
and neither it nor we will be liable for any direct or indirect losses associated with the rate.
Payment of Taxes
You will be responsible for
any taxes or other governmental charges payable on your ADSs or on the deposited securities represented by any of your ADSs. The depositary
may refuse to register any transfer of your ADSs or allow you to withdraw the deposited securities represented by your ADSs until those
taxes or other charges are paid. It may apply payments owed to you or sell deposited securities represented by your ADSs to pay any taxes
owed and you will remain liable for any deficiency. If the depositary sells deposited securities, it will, if appropriate, reduce the
number of ADSs to reflect the sale and pay to ADS holders any proceeds, or send to ADS holders any property, remaining after it has paid
the taxes.
Tender and Exchange Offers; Redemption, Replacement
or Cancellation of Deposited Securities
The depositary will not tender
deposited securities in any voluntary tender or exchange offer unless instructed to do so by an ADS holder surrendering ADSs and subject
to any conditions or procedures the depositary may establish.
If deposited securities are
redeemed for cash in a transaction that is mandatory for the depositary as a holder of deposited securities, the depositary will call
for surrender of a corresponding number of ADSs and distribute the net redemption money to the holders of called ADSs upon surrender of
those ADSs.
If there is any change in
the deposited securities such as a sub-division, combination or other reclassification, or any merger, consolidation, recapitalization
or reorganization affecting the issuer of deposited securities in which the depositary receives new securities in exchange for or in lieu
of the old deposited securities, the depositary will hold those replacement securities as deposited securities under the deposit agreement.
However, if the depositary decides it would not be lawful and practical to hold the replacement securities because those securities could
not be distributed to ADS holders or for any other reason, the depositary may instead sell the replacement securities and distribute the
net proceeds upon surrender of the ADSs.
If there is a replacement
of the deposited securities and the depositary will continue to hold the replacement securities, the depositary may distribute new ADSs
representing the new deposited securities or ask you to surrender your outstanding ADSs in exchange for new ADSs identifying the new deposited
securities.
If there are no deposited
securities underlying ADSs, including if the deposited securities are cancelled, or if the deposited securities underlying ADSs have become
apparently worthless, the depositary may call for surrender of those ADSs or cancel those ADSs upon notice to the ADS holders.
Amendment and Termination
How may the deposit agreement be amended?
We may agree with the depositary
to amend the deposit agreement and the ADRs without your consent for any reason. If an amendment adds or increases fees or charges, except
for taxes and other governmental charges or expenses of the depositary for registration fees, facsimile costs, delivery charges or similar
items, or prejudices a substantial right of ADS holders, it will not become effective for outstanding ADSs until 30 days after the depositary
notifies ADS holders of the amendment. At the time an amendment becomes effective, you are considered, by continuing to hold your
ADSs, to agree to the amendment and to be bound by the ADRs and the deposit agreement as amended.
How may the deposit agreement be terminated?
The depositary will initiate
termination of the deposit agreement if we instruct it to do so. The depositary may initiate termination of the deposit agreement if
| ● | 60 days have passed since the depositary told us it wants
to resign but a successor depositary has not been appointed
and accepted its appointment; |
| ● | we delist the ADSs from an exchange in the United States on
which they were listed and do not list the ADSs on another exchange in the United States or make arrangements for trading of ADSs on
the U.S. over-the-counter market; |
| ● | we delist our shares from an exchange outside the United States
on which they were listed and do not list the shares
on another exchange outside the United States; |
| ● | the depositary has reason to believe the ADSs have become,
or will become, ineligible for registration on
Form F-6 under the Securities Act of 1933; |
| ● | we appear to be insolvent or enter insolvency proceedings; |
| ● | all or substantially all the value of the deposited securities
has been distributed either in cash or in the form of securities; |
| ● | there are no deposited securities underlying the ADSs or the
underlying deposited securities have become apparently worthless; or |
| ● | there has been a replacement of deposited securities. |
If the deposit agreement will
terminate, the depositary will notify ADS holders at least 90 days before the termination date. At any time after the termination date,
the depositary may sell the deposited securities. After that, the depositary will hold the money it received on the sale, as well as any
other cash it is holding under the deposit agreement, unsegregated and without liability for interest, for the pro rata benefit
of the ADS holders that have not surrendered their ADSs. Normally, the depositary will sell as soon as practicable after the termination
date.
After the termination date
and before the depositary sells, ADS holders can still surrender their ADSs and receive delivery of deposited securities, except that
the depositary may refuse to accept a surrender for the purpose of withdrawing deposited securities or reverse previously accepted surrenders
of that kind that have not settled if it would interfere with the selling process. The depositary may refuse to accept a surrender for
the purpose of withdrawing sale proceeds until all the deposited securities have been sold. The depositary will continue to collect distributions
on deposited securities, but, after the termination date, the depositary is not required to register any transfer of ADSs
or distribute any dividends or other distributions on deposited securities to the ADSs holder (until they surrender their ADSs) or give
any notices or perform any other duties under the deposit agreement except as described in this paragraph.
Limitations on Obligations and Liability
Limits on our Obligations and the Obligations
of the Depositary; Limits on Liability to Holders of ADSs
The deposit agreement expressly
limits our obligations and the obligations of the depositary. It also limits our liability and the liability of the depositary. We and
the depositary:
| ● | are only obligated to take the actions specifically set forth
in the deposit agreement without negligence or bad faith, and the depositary will not be a fiduciary or have any fiduciary duty to
holders of ADSs; |
| ● | are not liable if we are or it is prevented or delayed by
law or by events or circumstances beyond our or its ability to prevent or counteract with reasonable
care or effort from performing our or its obligations under the deposit agreement; |
| ● | are not liable if we or it exercises discretion permitted
under the deposit agreement; |
| ● | are not liable for the inability of any holder of ADSs to
benefit from any distribution on deposited securities that is not made available to holders of ADSs under the terms of the deposit agreement,
or for any special, consequential or punitive damages for any breach of the terms of
the deposit agreement; |
| ● | have no obligation to become involved in a lawsuit or other
proceeding related to the ADSs or the deposit agreement on your behalf or on
behalf of any other person; |
| ● | may rely upon any documents we believe or it believes in good
faith to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
person; |
| ● | are not liable for the acts or omissions of any securities
depository, clearing agency or settlement system; and |
| ● | the depositary has no duty to make any determination or provide
any information as to our tax status, or any liability for any tax consequences that may be incurred by ADS holders as a result of
owning or holding ADSs or be liable for the inability or failure of an ADS holder to obtain
the benefit of a foreign tax credit, reduced rate of withholding or refund of amounts withheld in
respect of tax or any other tax benefit. |
In the deposit agreement,
we and the depositary agree to indemnify each other under certain circumstances.
Requirements for Depositary Actions
Before the depositary will
deliver or register a transfer of ADSs, make a distribution on ADSs, or permit withdrawal of shares, the depositary may require:
| ● | payment of stock transfer or other taxes or other governmental
charges and transfer or registration fees charged by third parties for the
transfer of any shares or other deposited securities; |
| ● | satisfactory proof of the identity and genuineness of any
signature or other information it deems necessary; and |
| ● | compliance with regulations it may establish, from time to
time, consistent with the deposit agreement, including presentation of transfer documents. |
The depositary may refuse
to deliver ADSs or register transfers of ADSs when the transfer books of the depositary or our transfer books are closed or at any time
if the depositary or we think it advisable to do so.
Your Right to Receive the Shares Underlying
your ADSs
ADS holders have the right
to cancel their ADSs and withdraw the underlying shares at any time except:
| ● | when temporary delays arise because: (i) the depositary has
closed its transfer books or we have closed our transfer books; (ii) the transfer of shares is blocked to permit voting at a shareholders’
meeting; or (iii) we are paying a dividend on our shares; |
| ● | when you owe money to pay fees, taxes and similar charges;
or |
| ● | when it is necessary to prohibit withdrawals in order to comply
with any laws or governmental regulations that apply to ADSs or to the withdrawal of shares or other deposited securities. |
This right of withdrawal may
not be limited by any other provision of the deposit agreement.
Direct Registration System
In the deposit agreement,
all parties to the deposit agreement acknowledge that the Direct Registration System, also referred to as DRS, and Profile Modification
System, also referred to as Profile, will apply to the ADSs. DRS is a system administered by DTC that facilitates interchange between
registered holding of uncertificated ADSs and holding of security entitlements in ADSs through DTC and a DTC participant. Profile is a
feature of DRS that allows a DTC participant, claiming to act on behalf of a registered holder of uncertificated ADSs, to direct the depositary
to register a transfer of those ADSs to DTC or its nominee and to deliver those ADSs to the DTC account of that DTC participant without
receipt by the depositary of prior authorization from the ADS holder to register that transfer.
In connection with and in
accordance with the arrangements and procedures relating to DRS/Profile, the parties to the deposit agreement understand that the depositary
will not determine whether the DTC participant that is claiming to be acting on behalf of an ADS holder in requesting registration of
transfer and delivery as described in the paragraph above has the actual authority to act on behalf of the ADS holder (notwithstanding
any requirements under the Uniform Commercial Code). In the deposit agreement, the parties agree that the depositary’s reliance
on and compliance with instructions received by the depositary through the DRS/Profile system and in accordance with the deposit agreement
will not constitute negligence or bad faith on the part of the depositary.
Shareholder Communications; Inspection of Register
of Holders of ADSs
The depositary will make available
for your inspection at its office all communications that it receives from us as a holder of deposited securities that we make generally
available to holders of deposited securities. The depositary will send you copies of those communications or otherwise make those communications
available to you if we ask it to. You have a right to inspect the register of holders of ADSs, but not for the purpose of contacting those
holders about a matter unrelated to our business or the ADSs.
Jury Trial Waiver
The deposit agreement provides
that, to the extent permitted by law, ADS holders waive the right to a jury trial of any claim they may have against us or the depositary
arising out of or relating to our shares, the ADSs or the deposit agreement, including any claim under the U.S. federal securities laws.
If we or the depositary opposed a jury trial demand based on the waiver, the court would determine whether the waiver was enforceable
in the facts and circumstances of that case in accordance with applicable case law.
You will not, by agreeing
to the terms of the deposit agreement, be deemed to have waived our or the depositary’s compliance with U.S. federal securities
laws or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS
PIPE Warrants
The following is a brief
summary of the PIPE Warrants issued in the January 2024 Private Placement and is subject in all respects to the provisions contained in
the PIPE Warrants, in the form filed as an exhibit to our Current Report on Form 6-K dated January 30, 2024.
Exercisability. The January PIPE Warrants
are exercisable at any time after their original issuance and at any time up to the date that is five years after their original issuance.
The PIPE Warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part by delivering to us a duly executed exercise
notice and, at any time a registration statement registering the issuance of the ordinary shares underlying the PIPE Warrants under the
Securities Act is effective and available for the issuance of such shares, by payment in full in immediately available funds for the number
of ordinary shares purchased upon such exercise. If a registration statement is not effective or available the holder may, in its sole
discretion, elect to exercise the PIPE Warrants through a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise
the net number of ordinary shares determined according to the formula set forth in the PIPE Warrants. No fractional shares will be issued
in connection with the exercise of a PIPE Warrants. In lieu of fractional shares, we will pay the holder an amount in cash equal to the
fractional amount multiplied by the exercise price.
Exercise Limitation. A holder will not have
the right to exercise any portion of the PIPE Warrants if the holder (together with its affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of
4.99% of the number of ordinary shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined
in accordance with the terms of the PIPE Warrants. However, any holder may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage
not in excess of 9.99%, provided that any increase in such percentage shall not be effective until 61 days following notice from the holder
to us.
Exercise Price. The exercise price per whole
ordinary share purchasable upon exercise of the PIPE Warrants is $1.55 per ADS. The exercise price is subject to appropriate adjustment
in the event of certain share dividends and distributions, share splits, share combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting
our ordinary shares and also upon any distributions of assets, including cash, stock or other property to our shareholders.
Transferability. Subject to applicable laws,
the PIPE Warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned without our consent.
Exchange Listing. We do not intend to apply
to list the PIPE Warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.
Fundamental Transactions. In the event
of a fundamental transaction, as described in the PIPE Warrants and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification
of our ordinary shares, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation
or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding ordinary shares, or any person or group becoming
the beneficial owner of more than 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding ordinary shares, the holders of the PIPE Warrants
will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the PIPE Warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders
would have received had they exercised the PIPE Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction without regard to any limitations
on exercised contained in the PIPE Warrants.
Rights as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise
provided in the PIPE Warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of our ordinary shares, the holder of a PIPE Warrant does
not have the rights or privileges of a holder of our ordinary shares, including any voting rights, until the holder exercises the PIPE
Warrant.
Governing Law. The PIPE Warrants are
governed by New York law.
Placement Agent Warrants
The Placement Agent Warrants
contain substantially the same terms as the PIPE Warrants.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
Each selling shareholder of the securities and
any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby
on the principal trading market of our ordinary shares or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities
are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A selling shareholder may use any one or more
of the following methods when selling securities:
|
● |
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; |
|
|
|
|
● |
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
|
|
|
|
● |
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; |
|
|
|
|
● |
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; |
|
|
|
|
● |
privately negotiated transactions; |
|
|
|
|
● |
settlement of short sales; |
|
|
|
|
● |
in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the Selling Shareholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security; |
|
|
|
|
● |
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; |
|
|
|
|
● |
a combination of any such methods of sale; or |
|
|
|
|
● |
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
The selling shareholders may also sell securities
under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling shareholders
may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling shareholders
(or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except
as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission
in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.
In connection with the sale of the securities or
interests therein, the selling shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which
may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling shareholders may also
sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers
that in turn may sell these securities. The selling shareholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers
or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other
financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may
resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The selling shareholders and any broker-dealers
or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities
Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale
of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each selling shareholder
has informed us that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute
the securities.
We are required to pay certain fees and expenses
incurred by us incident to the registration of the securities. We have agreed to indemnify the selling shareholders against certain losses,
claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until

ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
We are a public limited company
incorporated under the laws of Australia. Certain of our directors are non-residents of the United States and substantially all of their
assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for you to:
| ● | effect service of process within
the United States upon our non-U.S. resident directors or on us; |
| ● | enforce in U.S. courts judgments
obtained against our non-U.S. resident directors or us in the United States courts in any action, including actions under the civil liability
provisions of U.S. securities laws; |
| ● | enforce in U.S. courts judgments
obtained against our non-U.S. resident directors or us in courts of jurisdictions outside the United States in any action, including
actions under the civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws; or |
| ● | bring an original action in
an Australian court to enforce liabilities against our non-U.S. resident directors or us based solely upon U.S. securities laws. |
You may also have difficulties
enforcing in courts outside the United States judgments that are obtained in U.S. courts against any of our non-U.S. resident directors
or us, including actions under the civil liability provisions of the U.S. securities laws.
With that noted, there are
no treaties between Australia and the United States that would affect the recognition or enforcement of foreign judgments in Australia.
We also note that investors may be able to bring an original action in an Australian court against us to enforce liabilities based in
part upon U.S. federal securities laws.
We have appointed our subsidiary,
Mobilicom Inc., as our agent to receive service of process with respect to any action brought against us in the U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New York under the federal securities laws of the United States or any action brought against us in the Supreme
Court of the State of New York in the County of New York under the securities laws of the State of New York.

PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

PART II
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors, Officers and Employees.
Australian 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 or 1317HB
of the Australian Corporations Act 2001; |
| ● | 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, except to the extent prohibited by the law and the Corporations Act, for the indemnification of every person who
is or has been an officer or a director of the company or related entities (and in certain instances, subject to approval by the Board,
employees, former employees, auditors and former auditors) against liability incurred by that person as an officer or director excluding:
| - | in defending or resisting criminal proceedings in which the
relevant person is found guilty; |
| - | in defending or resisting proceedings bought by the Australian
Securities Investments Commission or a liquidator for a Court order if the grounds for making the order are found by a Court to be established;
or |
| - | in connection with proceedings for relief by the relevant
person under the Corporations Act in which the Court denies relief. |
This includes any liability
incurred by that person in their capacity as an officer or director of a subsidiary of the company where the company requested that person
to accept that appointment.
Indemnification Agreements. Pursuant
to Deeds of Access, Insurance and Indemnity, the form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.10 to this registration statement, we have agreed
to indemnify our directors against certain liabilities and expenses incurred by such persons in connection with claims made by reason
of their being such a director.
SEC Position. Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
Pursuant to the underwriting
agreement for this offering, the form of which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this registration statement, the underwriters will agree to
indemnify our directors and officers and persons controlling us, within the meaning of the Securities Act, against certain liabilities
that might arise out of or are based upon certain information furnished to us by any such underwriter.
Item 7. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.
Set forth below are the sales
of all unregistered securities of ours sold by us within the past three years (i.e., since August 2021, up to the date of this registration
statement) which were not registered under the Securities Act. We believe that each of such issuances was exempt from registration under
the Securities Act in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, Rule 701 and/or Regulation S under the Securities Act.

Item 9. Undertakings.
|
(a) |
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: |
|
(1) |
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this 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, 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 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 (a)(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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to registration statements on Form F-3, a post-effective amendment need not be filed to include financial statements and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Act or Rule 3-19 of this chapter if such financial statements and information are contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Form F-3. |
|
(5) |
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser: |
|
i. |
If the registrant is relying on Rule 430B: |
|
A. |
Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and |
|
B. |
Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness of the date of the first contract or sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date and placement agent, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. 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 sale prior to such effective date, 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 effective date; or |
|
ii. |
If the registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed 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 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. |
|
(6) |
That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the placement agent method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell securities to such purchaser: |
|
i. |
Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; |
|
ii. |
Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant; |
|
iii. |
The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and |
|
iv. |
Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser. |
|
(b) |
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the placement agent at the closing specified in the placement agent agreements, certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the placement agent to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser. |
|
(c) |
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 provisions described in Item 6 hereof, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 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 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. |
|
(d) |
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that: |
|
(1) |
That for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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. |
|
(2) |
That for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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. |
