Letter of Invitation

Dear Investor

We are pleased to provide this introductory information inviting an investment in New Energy Technology Ltd ACN 645 447374 (“NET” or the “Company”).

New shares in the Company will be issued at a price of $0.10 per share.

NET’s business strategy is to acquire minority equity ownership in and commercialisation rights to a diversified portfolio of themost promising green hydrogen technology businesses and use its deep expertise to commercialise them globally. It seeksto then exit those technology businesses and cycle gains into its ongoing commercialisation portfolio.

NET is excited to announce that as a result of 15mths of research by a full-time team into more than 100 technology venturecandidates, rigorous due diligence, and negotiations, it has executed commercial terms to acquire shares in what it believesare the two most promising scalable green hydrogen fuel production technologies in the world.

NET is now raising the capital to close those transactions, help commercialise them, and prepare for the next ones.

NET is an Australian Unlisted Public Company run by a highly qualified and experienced team of experts in energy,technology, ventures, investments, intellectual property, and hydrogen.

Please note that an investment in NET is speculative and high risk. Some of the risks of an investment in NET aresummarized in Section 11 of this Information Memorandum. There is no set term of this investment.

Before investing in the Company, it is very important that you request and read NET’s Information Memorandum in itsentirety.

Yours faithfully

Green hydrogen will soon become a new multi-trillion dollar commodity sector and transform the energy

industry

Hydrogen is a core part of what we believe in

We see green fuels providing 25% of the world’s energy needs

Now is the time to scale up technologies and bring down costs to allow hydrogen to become widely used

The international market for green ammonia is likely to grow exponentially in the medium term Alan Finkel

NET seeks to acquire minority equity ownership in and commercialisationrights to a diversified portfolio of the most promising green hydrogen technologybusinesses from around the world and use its deep expertise to commercialisethem globally. It seeks to then exit those technology businesses and cyclegains into NET’s ongoing commercialisation portfolio.

NET is excited to announce that is has signed share acquisition terms with twoof the world’s most advanced green fuel production technologies. NET believesit has the right idea, right team, right time, and right technologies.

NET is Seeking $5M pre-IPO/seed between 1 February and 12 March

Use of funds: $4M to acquire equity in the first two technologybusinesses, $1M on commercialisation, operations & IPO

Planning for a $20M IPO in late 2021 to fund additional technologies for thecommercialisation portfolio

Right IdeaHydrogen-based green fuel is the missing piece of the net-zero puzzle1, theholy grail of energy2,3: CO2-free energy anywhere, any time, at any scale, formany uses.NET offers diversified active exposure to the high growth green fuels sector…

• Will meet 25% of the world’s energy needs by 2050 4

• $3 trillion 5 in annual revenue • $16 trillion 6 in building out the ecosystem• Equal to 150 times Australia’s entire power load, by 2050 7• Urgent need for tech that unlocks the hydrogen value chain1-10

• Green hydrogen tech needs capital and commercialization help

Right Team Global presence Special tech access Energy & hydrogen experts Ventures & commercialisation 4 full time, 4 part time

Right Time In 2020 The International Energy Agency wrote ‘now is the time to scale

fuel at scale 11up hydrogen’ 8 $100’s of billions in investments have been announced since 2019 M&A activity shows hydrogen tech is attracting a high premium 9 Shell CEO said today is, ‘ like the LNG moment’, only bigger 10

Many large industry players have committed to green hydrogen fuel 11

Expert Selection & Acquisition of TechnologiesNET’s subject matter experts with decades of global experience in emerging clean energytechnologies, ventures, and markets are uniquely positioned to find, assess, negotiateand acquire the most promising green hydrogen fuel technologies.

Strong Commercialisation CapabilityNET team members have founded more than 20 ventures, run billions of dollars worth ofprojects, and commercialised and grown energy and technology businesses, including inhydrogen. NET intends to leverage this unique capability by bringing these technologiesfrom the lab to pilot to commercial sales and industrial scale applications.To ensure influence NET has terms to join the boards. NET intends to get involved in theirgrowth planning, play an active role in commercialisation, and get additional benefit forthat.In the unlikely case of a technology businesses struggling, the NET team will havevisibility early, and assist them to pivot with new partners, executives, finance, use casesand markets.

ExitsThe NET team will seek to utilise its extensive global network of investors and operators inthe energy sector to nurture exit discussion early and negotiate over time for premiumexits. NET anticipates the most likely exits will be trade sales to strategic majors, as wellas listings and secondaries markets.

NET is uniquely positioned to select, acquire, commercialise, & exit green fuel technologies

NET’s key commercialisation strategies will includeassisting with the activities that technical founders oftenstruggle with the most. NET will utilize it’s uniquecapabilities and networks to assist with:

NET’s CommercialisationStrategy

Pilot Projects & Industrial Infrastructure Projects

NET is uniquely positioned to assist with one of the hardest stagesof commercialisation – the first pilot projects. Years of working withemerging energy technologies into pilot project stage has resultedin NET accumulating risk structures, commercial models, andproject development mechanisms to unlock pilot success.

NET has a global ecosystem of working relationships that itwill seek to leverage to assist with commercialisation,including: Renewable energy developers and owners Green fuel mega-project developers Energy OEMs Solar and wind OEMs Technical advisors in clean energy EPCs with clean energy expertise Insurers & risk managers in clean energy Oil and gas, fuels producers & operators Banks, grant bodies & investors with appetite for clean

energy technology Universities, incubators & accelerators Other investment funds Infrastructure developers

NET will seek bespoke commercial terms with each technologybusinesses that provide rewards to NET for adding theseadditional types of assistance.
