| (b) | an expression importing a natural person includes any company, trust, partnership, joint venture, association, body corporate or governmental agency; |
| (c) | where a word or phrase is given a defined meaning, another part of speech or other grammatical form in respect of that word or phrase has a corresponding meaning; |

| (g) | a reference to a party to any document or agreement includes that party’s executors, administrators, successors and permitted assigns, including any person taking by way of novation; |
| (h) | a reference to any document or agreement is to that document or agreement as amended, novated, supplemented or replaced from time to time; and |
| (i) | a provision of this deed must not be construed to the disadvantage of a party merely because that party was responsible for the preparation of this deed or the inclusion of the provision in this deed. |
| 2 | Operation |
The parties agree that the variations to the Corporate Advisory Mandate set out in clause 3 have effect from the Commencement Date.
| 3 | Variations to the Corporate Advisory Mandate |
| 3.1 | The parties agree to vary the Corporate Advisory Mandate by: |
| (a) | Adding the following paragraph to “Clause 2.1 C. Fees – Transactional”:- |
Specifically in the event of a takeover offer for the Company’s shares or any of its assets, the Company will pay Oakley a Transaction Fee (payable in shares, or in cash if mutually agreed) equal to 10% of the Transaction Size (defined as being the highest total price payable under the Transaction) if the Takeover Bid is successful. The Transaction Fee will be 3% in the event the Takeover Bid is received and announced to market but does not complete for any reason or for any transaction initiated by the Company. Upon receiving a bid, the Company shall pay a Transaction Fee of 3% within 30 days of receiving the bid, and if the bid is successful, the Company shall pay the remainder of the Transaction Fee within 30 days of bid settlement.
Any issues of securities that will be settled via issue of shares, may be subject to shareholder approval. Depending on how much 7.1 capacity the Company has, it may issue partially from capacity and the remainder would be issued subject to shareholder approval.
The 3% fee when converted can never be greater than 19.9% of the issued capital of the Company at any time.
| (b) | In Clause 10 “TERM AND TERMINATION”, amending the words “with an automatic extension for a further 12 months, unless a party notifies the other party within 9 months” to read “with an automatic extension for a further 18 months, unless a party notifies the other party within 6 months” |
| (c) | Replacing Clause 2.1 A. (c) ii) “Fees – Corporate Advisory” with:- |
On any subsequent raisings (following the initial $1.25m - $2m raise), Oakley to receive 1 broker share for every 10 placement shares issued, and 1 broker option (ASX:RMLOC) for every 2 placement options issued. Both parties acknowledge there will be success shares and options with each successful capital raise, with the amounts to be negotiated at the time of each raise. Any issues of fee securities may be subject to RML shareholder approval and RML will arrange the necessary shareholder meeting to ratify the placement and seek approval for any remaining fee shares and options not able to be issued out of available capacity.
The above paragraph does not include the $750,000 placement to happen simultaneously with the Idaho Horse Heaven acquisition as these fees have already been agreed in the Finders Fee & Capital Raising Fee (60m shares and 60m options). (For the avoidance of doubt, for any other raise after the $750k Idaho deal raise, including if more than 750k is raised in the Idaho deal raise, the above fees in c) will apply.)
