Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Subject to the provisions of the Companies Act 2006 of the Isle of Man (the “IOM Companies Act”), our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that we shall indemnify each of our directors and officers (including former directors and officers) out of our assets, to the fullest extent permissible under the laws of the Isle of Man, against any liability, action, proceeding, claim, demand, costs, damages or expenses, including legal expenses, whatsoever, which any of those directors or officers may incur as a result of any act or failure to act in carrying out their functions unless that liability arises through their actual fraud or willful default. The IOM Companies Act permits the indemnification of directors and officers provided that such person acted honestly and in good faith and in what such person believed to be in the best interests of the company and, in the case of criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe that the conduct of such person was unlawful.
Costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by a director or officer in connection with the defense of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation involving them may be paid by us in advance of the final disposition of such proceedings upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it shall be determined by final judgment that the director is not entitled to be indemnified by us in accordance with our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association.
The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association is not exclusive of any other rights to which the person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled.
The directors, on behalf of us, may purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of any current or former director or other officer of Lifezone Metals Limited against any liability which, by virtue of any rule of law, would otherwise attach to such person in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which such person may be guilty in relation to us.
In addition, we have purchased and intend to maintain standard policies of insurance under which coverage is provided to our directors and officers against loss arising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act, and to us with respect to payments which may be made by us to such directors and officers pursuant to the above indemnification provision or otherwise as a matter of law.
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 Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
Item 7. Exemption From Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.

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 this 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 this 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; and |
(iii) | To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement; |
Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this 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. |
(b) | The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement 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. |
(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 foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. |

Reservations
Our opinion is subject to the following:
1. | Enforcement: Where any obligation of any person is to be performed in any jurisdiction outside of the Isle of Man, such obligation may not be enforceable under the law of the Isle of Man to the extent that such performance would be illegal or contrary to public policy under the laws of that foreign jurisdiction. |
2. | Reference to foreign law: To the extent that any document makes reference to foreign statutes, regulations or codes, we express no opinion upon the meaning or effect of such provisions or the impact upon this opinion generally or as to the availability in the Isle of Man of any remedies which are available in other jurisdictions. |
3. | Law not fact: Save as otherwise specifically stated in this opinion, this opinion addresses law and not fact. |
4. | Company Search: The Company Search only reveals documentation which has been delivered to and processed by the Registry and placed on the Company’s company file and does not reveal any documentation which has been delivered to the Registry for registration but which has not yet been placed on the Company’s company file. Additionally, the record may be incomplete due to filing of the appropriate document having been overlooked or the time limit for the filing of the document not having yet expired. |
5. | Litigation Search: The Litigation Search at the Rolls Office is a manual search and cannot be relied upon to reveal whether or not a particular entity is a party to litigation in the Isle of Man. Notwithstanding this, a search at the Rolls Office is the only means of checking whether or not an entity is a party to litigation in the Isle of Man. |
