CHATHAM ADVISES EXTENDED CLOSING DATE OF 9 AUGUST FOR SHARE

OFFER TO EXISTING SHAREHOLDERS


WELLINGTON New Zealand – Further to Chatham Rock Phosphate Limited’s (TSXV: “NZP”,

NZX: 3GRE Frankfurt Bourse “CRP” or the “Company”) press release on 28 June regarding the share

offering to its existing shareholders, the Company wishes to announce that its anticipated closing date

has now been extended to 9 August from 26 July in order to accept additional subscriptions.


The form of this offering in New Zealand is a Share Purchase Plan whereby eligible shareholders,

regardless of the size of their existing shareholding, are offered the opportunity to apply for a minimum

of 5,000 Shares and up to 100,000 Shares. The offer price per Share is CA$0.08 (NZ$0.10). Depending

on how widespread the uptake is, shareholders may have the opportunity to apply for more than 100,000

Shares.


Canadian resident shareholders who held shares of the Company as at June 27, 2024 (the “Record

Date”) are eligible to participate in the offering under the Canadian “Existing Shareholder Exemption”.

Details of this exemption are contained in our 28 June press release.


The Company intends to use the net proceeds raised in the offering as follows:


• Continuing the fast tracking 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

• General working capital


It is anticipated that operating cash flows from the Korella North mine will, during 2024 and 2025,

provide working capital while also financing the development of our Korella South mine and the

reapplication for a Marine Consent (environmental permit) for our Chatham Rise project.


Completion of the offering is subject to receipt of the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. All

securities issued pursuant to the offering in Canada will be subject to a four month and one day hold

period from the date of issuance of the Shares in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.
