Locke Funding Almost Certainly Dead In The Water If News Article is Correct, page-154

YES this is from a COMPANY ANNOUNCEMENT

The funds will provide funding for all legal fees incurred by AVZ on behalf of AVZ,
AVZ International Pty Ltd, Green Lithium Holdings Pte. Ltd or Dathcom, expert
fees, local law support, investigation costs, arbitration and court fees and any
related activities

• The Funding Facility will also provide significant working capital to ensure AVZ
can continue defending its legal rights to its interests in the Manono Project and
ultimately see its development

AVZ’s preferred course is a negotiated resolution commencing with the
execution of an MOU with the DRC Government which provides for a stay of the ICSID proceedings
while the DRC Government takes the necessary steps to comply with the Mining Code at which time
the ICSID proceedings can be withdrawn.
