The Offer is being made by the Company under a transaction specific prospectus issued pursuant to section 713 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (Corporations Act) and dated 9 June 2026 (Prospectus). A copy of the Prospectus is available on the Company’s website, https://investors.spenda.co/.
This TMD has been prepared to help investors understand the class of consumers for whom the offer of New Options is most suitable. This TMD sets out the class of consumers whose financial objectives would likely be consistent with the distribution conditions and restrictions imposed on the distribution of the New Options, as well as reporting requirements for distributors in accordance with the requirements of section 994B of the Corporations Act.
The Offer will be made under, or accompanied by, a copy of the Prospectus. Any recipient of this TMD should carefully read and consider the Prospectus in full and consult their stockbroker, accountant, solicitor and / or other professional adviser if they have any questions regarding the contents of the Prospectus. Any recipient of this TMD who wants to acquire New Options pursuant to the Offer will need to complete the Application Form / Entitlement and Acceptance Form that will be in, or will accompany, the Prospectus. There is no cooling off period in respect of the issue of the New Options. This TMD is not a disclosure document for the purposes of the Corporations Act, and therefore has not been lodged, and does not require lodgement, with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC).
This TMD does not take into account what you currently have, or what you want and need, for your financial future. It is important for you to consider these matters and read the Prospectus before you make an investment decision. The Company is not licensed to provide financial product advice in relation to the New Options.
Unless otherwise defined in this TMD, capitalised terms have the meaning given to them in the Prospectus.

3. Target Market
The table below summarises the overall class of consumers that fall within the target market for the New Options, based on the product key attributes and the objectives, financial situation and needs that it has been designed to meet.
| Factor | Target Market |
|---|---|
| Investment Objective | As the New Options may be exercised at any time prior to the Expiry Date, the Company expects that an investment in the New Options will be suitable to investors who have the right, but not the obligation, in the medium to long term (i.e., in the next 5 years) to gain exposure to equities in a payment solutions software company listed on Australian Securities Exchange (ASX). |
| Investment Timeframe | The target market of investors will take a medium to long term outlook in relation to their investment in the Company. Investors with a medium to long term outlook will benefit from an anticipated listing of the New Options on ASX, as well as an ability to exercise the New Options during the Exercise Period, and increase their shareholding and exposure to the potential upside in the Company’s shares into the future. Given the requirement to pay the Exercise Price in order to acquire the Shares, investors in the target market are in a financial position that is sufficient for them to invest their funds over the Exercise Period (of approximately 5 years), should they wish to exercise their New Options. Any decision to exercise the New Options is likely to be based on the trading price of the Shares. |
| Investment Metrics | While the Company does not have an established eligibility framework for investors based on metrics such as age, expected return or volatility, it is expected that the target market of investors will wish to obtain optionality for exposure to the Company’s ongoing operations and be able to withstand potentially large fluctuations, and the potential for the losses, in the value of their investment. The Exercise Price is required to be paid to acquire Shares on exercise of New Options. The capacity to realise the underlying value of the New Options would require that they be exercised on or before the Expiry Date. Investors in the target market will need to be in a financial position to have sufficient available funds so as to facilitate an exercise of the New Options prior to the Expiry Date. The New Options offer no guaranteed income or capital protection and also offer no guarantee of whether there will be liquidity to enable trading of the New Options or the Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the New Options. |
Risks
The Company considers that an investment in the New Options will have a different risk profile to a direct investment in Shares, including due to the fact that there is no obligation to exercise the New Options prior to the Expiry Date.
The Company considers that an investment in the New Options is high risk and speculative, such that an investment in the Company is not appropriate for an investor who would not be able to bear a loss of some or all of the investment.
Investors should also have a sufficient level of financial literacy and resources (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate adviser) to understand and appreciate the high risks of investing in New Options as an asset class generally and the high risks of investing in the Company.
The New Options are not suitable for investors:
- (a) who are not seeking to have the potential to increase their investment in the Company; and
- (b) who do not understand and appreciate the risks of investing in options as an asset class generally and the more specific risks of investing in the Company.
The Company has assessed the New Options and formed the view that the New Options, including the key attributes set out in Section 2, are likely to be consistent with the objectives, financial situation and needs of investors in the target market as described above in this Section 3.
4. Distribution Conditions
The Offer of New Options under the Prospectus is being made to, among others, Eligible Retail Shareholders (as defined in Section 2 above).
The Company will include on its website a copy of this TMD and require that retail investors confirm that they meet the eligibility criteria of the expected target market outlined in this TMD before they apply for New Options.
The Company considers that these distribution conditions will ensure that persons who invest in New Options fall within the target market in circumstances where personal advice is not being provided to those persons by the Company.
5. Review Triggers
The New Options are only being offered for a limited offer period detailed in the Prospectus, after the conclusion of which the New Options will no longer be available for investment by way of issue. It follows that the TMD will only apply in the period between the commencement of the offer of the New Options and the issue of the New Options shortly after the close of the Offer (Offer Period), after which the TMD will be withdrawn.
To allow the Company to determine whether circumstances exist that indicate this TMD is no longer appropriate to the Offer and should be reviewed, the following review triggers apply for the Offer Period:
- (a) there is a material change to the Options’ key attributes that make them no longer consistent with the likely objectives, financial situation and needs of consumers in the target market;
- (b) the Company lodges with ASIC a supplementary or replacement prospectus in relation to the Prospectus;
- (c) the occurrence of a significant dealing in Options that is not consistent with this TMD;
- (d) the Company identifies a substantial divergence in how the New Options are being distributed and purchased from this TMD;
- (e) ASIC raises concerns with the Company regarding the adequacy of the design or distribution of the New Options or this TMD; and
- (f) there are material changes to the regulatory environment that applies to an investment in the New Options.
The Company may also amend this TMD at any time.
6. Review Period
If a review trigger occurs during the Offer Period, the Company will undertake a review of the TMD in light of the review trigger as soon as reasonably practicable and, in any case, within five business days of the review trigger occurring.
The Company will otherwise complete a review of the TMD immediately prior to the issue of New Options under the Offer.
Periodic reviews of the TMD will not occur during the Offer Period, noting that the Offer Period is (subject to any decision to extend) less than one month. If the Offer Period is extended for more than one month, the TMD will be reviewed on a monthly basis.
