Dear Shareholder
Share Purchase Plan
On behalf of the Directors of Chatham Rock Phosphate Limited (CRP), I am pleased to offer you
an opportunity to participate in a Share Purchase Plan (SPP), where you can apply for up to
100,000 New Shares in CRP.
Capital Raised
CRP recently closed the submission window for subscriptions to its non-brokered private placement
of 878,000 Shares for gross proceeds of CA$70,240 (NZ$87,800), the latest in a series of such
offers raising a total of CDN$1,403,596 (NZ$1,701,827) in the past 12 months.
The Company intends to primarily use the net proceeds raised from those placements and under
this Offer for the following purposes:
• continuing the fast tracking of the development of the Korella North mine, the latter presently
anticipated to be in production in Q4, 2024;
• completion of the permitting process for the Avenir Makatea onshore phosphate project in
French Polynesia with expected operating cash flows in 2027; and
• general working capital.
It is anticipated that operating cash flows from the Korella North mine will, during late 2024 and
2025, provide working capital while also financing the development of our Korella South mine and
the re-application for a Marine Consent (environmental permit) for our Chatham Rise project.
SPP Terms
The maximum number of Shares available under this SPP is 200,000,000 Shares. Eligible
Shareholders may apply for a minimum of 5,000 Shares and up to 100,000 Shares. If an Eligible
Shareholder wishes to subscribe for more than 100,000 Shares they may apply for more Shares
through the Oversubscription Facility (which in the event of excess demand may be subject to
scaling in the manner described at clause 3.2 of the terms and conditions in this Offer Booklet).
The full terms and conditions of this SPP and how you can participate in it are contained in this
Offer Booklet. You are encouraged to read these terms and conditions in their entirety before you
decide whether to participate.
If you choose to apply for Shares under this SPP, please apply online at the following link
https://chathamrock.capitalraise.co.nz. Eligible shareholders have until 5:00pm (New Zealand time)
on 26 July 2024 to apply for New Shares under the SPP Offer.

WARNING
There is a risk to Eligible Shareholders that the market price for Shares may change between the
Record Date, the date that you apply for Shares under this SPP and the Allotment Date. A change
in market price during this period will not affect the Issue Price. The Issue Price may be greater or
less than the market price of the Shares at the time of the allotment of New Shares to you.
If the market price of Shares falls below the Issue Price then an investor in this SPP may experience
a fall in value of their New Shares after they are allotted. Alternatively, if the market price of Shares
rises above the Issue Price then such investors may experience a capital gain from the New Shares
after they are allotted.
How Eligible Shareholders can Participate in this SPP
Shareholders have the following options under this SPP with the Issue Price per Share being
NZ$0.10 under each of the subscription options:
➢ Oversubscription: Subscribe for 100,000 Shares (NZ$10,000) and apply for such
additional number of Shares as you wish at NZD$0.10 per Share through the
Oversubscription Facility (which may be subject to scaling).
➢ Full Application: Subscribe for 100,000 Shares (NZ$10,000). Your application will not be
scaled.
➢ Specified Application: Subscribe for between 5,000 Shares (NZ$500) and 100,000
Shares (NZ$10,000). Your application will not be scaled and any Shares not applied for
will form part of the Oversubscription Facility.
➢ Minimum Application: Subscribe for the minimum application amount under this SPP of
5,000 Shares (NZ$500). Your application will not be scaled and any Shares not applied for
from your allocation of 5,000 Shares will form part of the Oversubscription Facility.
➢ No Application: Do nothing and your ability to apply for Shares under this SPP will lapse.
Your allocation of 100,000 Shares will form part of the Oversubscription Facility.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Capitalised terms have the meaning attributed to them in the Glossary at the end of this Offer Booklet.
1. Eligible Shareholders
1.1 You may participate in this SPP only if you are an Eligible Shareholder. An Eligible
Shareholder is a person who, at 5.00pm on the Record Date, was recorded in CRP’s
share register as being a registered holder of Shares and is resident in New Zealand.
1.2 Joint holders of Shares are taken to be a single registered holder of Shares for the
purposes of determining whether they are an Eligible Shareholder and the certification on
the Application Form is taken to have been given by all of them.
1.3 If you are an Eligible Shareholder, your right to participate in this SPP is personal to you
and non-renounceable.
1.4 CRP reserves the right to extend this SPP to Shareholders in a jurisdiction outside New
Zealand in circumstances where it considers that so extending the offer will not breach
the legal requirements of that jurisdiction.
2. Issue Price and Shares
2.1 The Issue Price for Shares under this SPP is NZD$0.10 per Share.
2.2 If you are an Eligible Shareholder you have the options available to participate or not
participate in this SPP as are outlined on page 3 of this Offer Booklet (under the heading
“How Eligible Shareholders can Participate in this SPP”).
2.3 CRP has limited the number of Shares available under this SPP to 200,000,000, having
an aggregate value of NZD$20,000,000 at the Allotment Date.
3. Oversubscription Facility
3.1 Applicants who apply for 100,000 Shares may also apply for additional Shares at the
Issue Price pursuant to the Oversubscription Facility. Applicants may apply for any
number of Shares however the Oversubscription Facility is subject to Shortfall availability.
3.2 In the event that the total number of Shares for which Oversubscription Facility
applications are received exceed the total number of Shares in the Oversubscription
Facility, CRP will scale back applications pro-rata (by reference to the number of Shares
applied for) by applying the following formula:
Y = (B ÷ A) x N
Where:
Y is the number of scaled back Shares that an Eligible Shareholder will be
allotted from the Oversubscription Facility.
B is the aggregate number of Shares available in the Oversubscription
Facility.
July 2024 Share Purchase Plan
Terms and Conditions Booklet
5
A is the aggregate number of Shares applied for in the Oversubscription
Facility.
N is the number of Shares applied for by an Eligible Shareholder from the
Oversubscription Facility prior to scaling.
If the calculation above produces a fractional number, the number of Shares you will be
allotted will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares. If a scale back is
applied, application monies received may be greater than the value of the Shares actually
allotted. The difference between the value of the Shares allotted and application monies
received will be refunded to applicants within 10 Business Days of the Closing Date. No
interest will be paid on refunded monies.
4. Custodian
4.1 Any Eligible Shareholder that:
(a) is a trustee corporation or a nominee company and holds Shares in CRP by
reason only of acting for another person in the ordinary course of business of
that trustee corporation or nominee company; or
(b) holds Shares in CRP by reason only of being a bare trustee of a trust to which
the Shares are subject,
is a custodian (Custodian) under this SPP.
4.2 Custodians may apply to purchase more than 100,000 Shares under this SPP without
having to apply through the Oversubscription Facility but only up to the total value of
Shares applied for by each beneficial owner for which the Custodian acts as a Custodian.
Custodians may confirm to CRP that they are holding Shares as a Custodian for beneficial
owners by providing the written certification to CRP described in clause 4.3 below. Each
beneficial owner may direct the Custodian to apply on behalf of that beneficial owner for
one of the parcels described or referred to in clause 2.2. A separate Application Form
must be completed for each beneficial owner. Where two or more beneficial holders (in
respect of Shares held in the name of a Custodian) are the same natural person, only
one application per natural person may be made by a Custodian.
4.3 If a Custodian applies to purchase Shares on behalf of a beneficial owner, the Custodian
must certify to CRP in writing together with the application:
(a) that the Custodian holds Shares directly or indirectly as a Custodian for
beneficial owners;
(b) the number of those beneficial owners;
(c) in respect of each of the beneficial owners, how many Shares the beneficial
owner or the beneficial owner’s agent has instructed the Custodian to accept
on behalf of that beneficial owner; and
(d) that the beneficial owner on whose behalf the Custodian is submitting an
application is not making an application themselves as an Eligible Shareholder
for Shares under this SPP, and no other Custodian is submitting an application
under the SPP for that beneficial owner.
