COMPLETION OF RETAIL ENTITLEMENT OFFER

Salt Lake Potash Limited (SO4 or the Company) is pleased to announce the successful completion of the retail component of the 1 for 3.2 pro rata accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer (Retail Entitlement Offer). The Retail Entitlement Offer formed part of the fully underwritten A$98.5 million equity raising announced on 5 August 2020.

The Retail Entitlement Offer closed on 25 August 2020 with eligible retail shareholders and Depositary Interest (DI) holders applying for approximately A$11.0 million worth of new fully paid ordinary shares (New Shares) pursuant to their entitlements and additional New Shares under the Retail Shortfall Facility (representing a take up rate of approximately 40%).

The shortfall under the Retail Entitlement Offer will be allotted to the sub-underwriters of the Retail Entitlement Offer.

This follows the strong support for the institutional component of the Entitlement Offer and placement raising approximately A$71 million.

The 54,991,200 New Shares, which have been subscribed for at a price of A$0.50 per New Share under the Retail Entitlement Offer, will be issued on Tuesday, 1 September 2020 and are expected to commence trading on ASX on Wednesday, 2 September 2020. The New Shares to be issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer will rank equally with existing ordinary shares of no par value (Ordinary Shares) on issue.

Euroz Securities Limited and Canaccord Genuity acted as joint lead managers, joint underwriters and bookrunners to the equity raising.

Settlement and Dealings

Application has been made to the AIM Market of London Stock Exchange Plc ("AIM") for the admission of the 54,991,200 New Shares being issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer, which rank pari passu with the Company's existing issued Ordinary Shares, to be admitted to trading. Dealings on AIM are expected to commence at 8:00am on or around 2 September 2020 (Admission).
