Shareholders should note that the financial statements and reports will be received in the form presented. It is not the purpose of the meeting for the financial statements and reports to be accepted, rejected or modified in any way. There is no requirement either in the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (Corporations Act) or in the constitution of the Company for shareholders to approve the financial report, the Directors’ Report or the Auditor’s Report.

The Directors do not presently intend for an issue of options to be an annual or regular event for these non-executive Directors. The exercise price of each option is A$1.72 and the expiry date is 9 May 2032. These options will be issued to Dr George and Ms Cobley in accordance with the Employee Share Option Plan.

Recommendation The Directors (with Dr Gregory George abstaining) recommend that shareholders vote in favour of the resolution proposed in Item 5a). The Directors (with Ms Lyn Cobley abstaining) recommend that shareholders vote in favour of the resolution proposed in Item 5b). Item 6 – Approval of Proposed Issue of Options to Chief Executive Officer, Dr Silviu Itescu a) Approval of Proposed issue of Options to Dr Silviu Itescu in Connection with his Long-Term Incentive Remuneration for the 2025/2026 Financial Year As detailed in the Remuneration Report on pages 103 to 131 of the Company’s 2025 Annual Report, the CEO’s remuneration framework includes a long-term incentive (LTI) component which is set as a target percentage of his base salary in the form of options over fully paid ordinary shares in the Company. This framework is aligned with biotechnology peers in key markets for biotechnology personnel, which have a large proportion of remuneration in LTIs, therefore strongly aligning outcomes with those of shareholders. Shareholders are asked to approve the issue of 1,950,000 milestone-based options to Dr Silviu Itescu under the Employee Share Option Plan, which constitute the LTI component of Dr Itescu’s remuneration for the 2025/2026 financial year. Vesting of these options is subject to the achievement of specified milestones determined by the Board, as well as minimum service periods from grant. Vesting for the proposed issue of options will be contingent on achievement of the following milestones, being: • LTI Clinical and Regulatory KPIs – 43% (1,114,286 options): Clinical and regulatory milestones relating to the remestemcel-L and rexlemestrocel-L platforms. • LTI Commercial, Financial and Business KPIs – 57% (835,714 options): Commercial, financial and business development milestones in relation to the remestemcel-L and rexlemestrocel-L platforms. Due to their commercially sensitive nature, the Company intends to provide further details related to the above performance metrics in the annual report following the achievement of the relevant milestones. It is noted that the milestones may be deemed by the Board to have been only partially met, in which case not all of the grant amounts may vest. The options are also subject to minimum service periods, whereby they are eligible for vesting in three equal tranches subject to the achievement of the above milestones, on the first, second and third anniversary of the grant date. The options will have an exercise price of A$2.46. Dr Itescu will only realise value from the options if the milestones are achieved, the minimum service period has elapsed and the share price of the Company exceeds the option exercise price (which was set based on the share price when the Board approved the grant of the options). The 1,950,000 milestone-based options will be issued to Dr Itescu in accordance with the Employee Share Option Plan, the terms and conditions of which are described in this Explanatory Memorandum in the table at pages 17 to 20.

Shareholders are asked to approve the issue of 75,600 options to Dr Silviu Itescu under the Employee Share Option Plan, which constitute 50% of the STI component of Dr Itescu’s remuneration for the period 10 May 2025 to 30 June 2025.

The options are also subject to minimum service periods, whereby they are eligible for vesting in three equal tranches subject to the vesting of the above milestones, on the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date. The options will have an exercise price of A$2.46.

Recommendation The Directors (with Dr Rose abstaining) recommend that shareholders vote in favour of Item 7.

Any additional persons covered by Listing Rule 10.14 who become entitled to participate in an issue of securities under the scheme after this resolution is approved by shareholders and who are not named in this Notice of AGM will not participate until shareholder approval is obtained under Listing Rule 10.14. Item 9 – Approval of Employee Share Option Plan for the Purposes of Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13) A key component of remuneration provided to employees, including executives and Directors, are LTIs. LTIs ensure employees have part of their remuneration tied to achieving long-term value and success for shareholders. Selected executives, employees and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries are eligible to participate in the Employee Share Option Plan at the absolute discretion of the Directors. Subject to the Listing Rules, Directors are also eligible to participate in the Plan. Further information on the Employee Share Option Plan can be found in the Remuneration Report and is summarised below. The need for shareholder approval Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13) provides that any equity securities issued under an employee incentive scheme that has been approved by shareholders within the last three years are not counted when calculating the maximum number of equity securities a company may issue without shareholder approval under the 15% cap in ASX Listing Rule 7.1. The Employee Share Option Plan was last approved by shareholders on 23 November 2022. Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13) provides that approval only remains in effect for three years and consequently expires on 23 November 2025. Therefore, the Employee Share Option Plan is being put to shareholders for approval at this AGM for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13). Since shareholder approval on 23 November 2022, the Company has issued 64,201,333 options under the Employee Share Option Plan. As of 31 August 2025, of these 64,201,333 options: • 773,254 have been forfeited; • 14,404,877 have been exercised; and • 49,023,202 remain issued and outstanding. Summary of the terms of the Employee Share Option Plan Maximum number of shares able to be issued In broad terms, the maximum number of shares that may be issued (including shares issued on the exercise of options) to persons under the Employee Share Option Plan in Australia during any three-year period may not exceed 10% of the total number of shares on issue, which as at 30 September 2025 is 128,296,719. There are certain exclusions from this limit, including shares issued under a formal disclosure document (such as a prospectus) and shares issued to certain exempt classes of persons provided for in the Corporations Act. In addition, there is a maximum of 25,000,000 shares over which US Incentive stock options may be issued to individuals who are employed by the Company or its subsidiaries that qualifies as a ‘related corporation’, as defined in US Treasury Regulations section 1.421-1(i)(2). Ranking of shares issued under the Employee Share Option Plan Shares issued on the exercise of the options will rank equally in all respects with other shares from the date of allotment and issue, subject to the satisfaction of any applicable disposal restrictions. EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM


 
18 Mesoblast Limited – Notice of Annual General Meeting 2025 EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM Participation on new issues of shares Option holders cannot participate in new issues of shares to existing shareholders without exercising the option within the exercise period and becoming a shareholder by the relevant record date. Vesting conditions, expiry dates, exercise price and share acquisition price Options are issued to eligible participants with each option entitling the holder to subscribe for or be transferred one fully paid ordinary share in the Company on exercise. The exercise conditions (i.e. vesting conditions), if any, expiry date and exercise price of options are determined by the Board in its discretion at the time of issue of the options. The Company typically issues options for the LTI component of an employee’s remuneration under the Employee Share Option Plan on the following basis: • options issued are either time-based vesting or milestone- based vesting, or both, depending on the eligible participant’s role. Unless provided otherwise, time-based vesting usually occurs in three equal tranches, with a tranche vesting on each of the first, second and third anniversary of the issue date. Milestone-based options vest upon achievement of pre-specified performance milestones; • options have an expiry date of seven years from date of issue; and • the exercise price of options is the higher of (i) the volume weighted average share price of the five ASX trading days up to the date the Board approved the grant, and (ii) the last closing price of an ordinary share on the ASX at Board approval. The Employee Share Option Plan includes a provision that confirms the Board’s discretion, subject to the Listing Rules, to amend the Exercise Conditions of options that are issued under the ESOP to ensure long term incentives can continue to incentivise executives and key consultants in alignment with the Company’s strategy, which may need to pivot from time to time given the development stage of the Company. Treatment of options on cessation of employment Cessation of employment as a Leaver. If a participant in the Employee Share Option Plan ceases employment (or their consultancy or directorship with the Company), unless the Board determines that the participant is a ‘Bad Leaver’, then: (a) the participant may retain vested options, however, subject to (b) and (c) below, they must be exercised within 60 days of cessation of employment (or within a longer period if so determined by the Board), after which time the options will lapse; (b) if the cessation of employment occurs while the Company has a share trading black out period in place, unless the Board determines otherwise, within 60 days after (but not before) the end of the share trading black out period (or within a longer period if so determined by the Board), after which time the options will lapse; (c) if at the time of ceasing employment or at any later time before the ‘Leaver’ exercises options, the ‘Leaver’ is or becomes an ‘Insider’, then, despite any other rule of the Employee Share Option Plan, but subject to a contrary determination by the Board: (i) the ‘Leaver’ must not exercise any vested options while they are an ‘Insider’; and


 
Mesoblast Limited – Notice of Annual General Meeting 2025 19 (ii) the ‘Leaver’ may exercise all or any of their vested options within 60 days after the Company notifies the ‘Leaver’ and the ‘Leaver’ has ceased to be an ‘Insider’; (d) subject to (e) below, any unvested options will normally be forfeited and lapse unless the Board determines otherwise; and (e) in relation to options held by a person who held a managerial or executive office in the Company or a related body corporate of the Company at any time during the last three years before the person became a ‘Leaver’, unless the Board in its sole and absolute discretion determines otherwise (in which event they will be forfeited and lapse), unvested options will continue and vest when, in the Board’s sole and absolute discretion, any exercise conditions of the options are satisfied with that vesting to be on a pro rata basis over the relevant period. A ‘Leaver’ means a participant who ceases employment (or their consultancy or directorship with the Company) and who is not a ‘Bad Leaver’. A ‘Leaver’ will include a participant who ceases employment or their consultancy or directorship with the Company due to resignation or retirement but would not usually include a participant who ceases employment (or their consultancy or directorship with the Company) and who, with the prior approval of the Company’s Nomination and Remuneration Committee, becomes within 60 business days a consultant or director (or employee) with the Company or a related body corporate of the Company. An ‘Insider’ means a person who possesses (for the purposes of Division 3 of Part 7.10 of the Corporations Act) inside information (as defined in section 1042A of the Corporations Act) in relation to the Company or any or its securities. Cessation of employment as a Bad Leaver. If a participant in the Employee Share Option Plan ceases employment (or consultancy or directorship with the Company), and the Board determines that the participant is a ‘Bad Leaver’, all rights, entitlements and interests in any unexercised options (whether vested or unvested) held by the participant will lapse immediately. A ‘Bad Leaver’ is a participant who ceases to be employed (or engaged as a consultant or director) by the Company where the Board determines that the participant has: • committed any serious or persistent breach of any provisions of employment; • been convicted of any criminal offence which involves fraud or dishonesty; • engaged in any conduct which brings the Company into substantial disrepute; • committed any wrongful or negligent act or omission which has caused the Company substantial liability; • engaged in grave misconduct or recklessness in the discharge of the participant’s duties; • become disqualified from managing corporations in accordance with Part 2D.6 of the Corporations Act or has committed any act that, pursuant to the Corporations Act, may result in the participant being banned from managing a corporation; or • engaged in any other conduct which the Board reasonably considers to be analogous to, or having a substantially similar seriousness to, any of the circumstances specified above. EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM


 
20 Mesoblast Limited – Notice of Annual General Meeting 2025 Change of control Unvested options vest on a ‘Control Event’, whether or not any or all applicable Exercise Conditions (i.e. vesting conditions) have been met, unless the Board otherwise determines. A ‘Control Event’ means any of the following: • an offer is made by a person for the whole of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company (or any part as is not at the time owned by the offeror or any person acting in concert with the offeror) and after announcement of the offer the offeror (being a person who did not Control the Company prior to the offer) acquires Control of the Company; • any other event occurs which causes a change in Control of the Company; or • any other event which the Board reasonably considers should be regarded as a Control Event. ‘Control’ of an entity means having the right to: • vote 50% (or more) of the votes that can be cast at a meeting of shareholders; • appoint or remove directors who possess 50% (or more) of the votes exercisable by all directors of the entity; or • 50% (or more) of the profits or distributions of the entity or of its net liquidation proceeds. Cash settlement or buy-back of options or shares The Board has discretion to cash settle or buy-back options or shares issued on the exercise of options including, but not limited to, as an alternative to delivering shares on the exercise of options. The cash settlement amount in respect of options will be determined by reference to the market value of the options at the relevant time or an amount agreed with the option holder. Lapsing of options Either the Company or an option holder may request that the option holder’s options lapse for no consideration. Amendments and administration Subject to the ASX Listing Rules, the rules of the Employee Share Option Plan may be amended or supplemented by resolution of the Board. Unless the resolution of the Board expressly states otherwise, any amendment or supplement will not apply to any options granted which have not yet been exercised. The Employee Share Option Plan is managed by the Board or its delegate which has powers including to determine appropriate procedures for the administration of the Employee Share Option Plan, and to determine matters falling for determination under the Employee Share Option Plan in its discretion having regard to the interests of and for the benefit of the Company. The Employee Share Option Plan may be terminated at any time at the discretion of the Board and no compensation under any employment contract will arise as a result. Addendum for US participants The Plan includes an Addendum that supplements the rules of the Plan and makes certain variations to the rules for Eligible Employees who are US federal taxpayers and/or residents in the US, to take into account tax and regulatory requirements in the US as they relate to stock options.

At any time up to the maturity date, Dr George may elect to convert the Convertible Notes issued into either Shares or ADRs at the conversion price.

Under ASX Listing Rule 10.11, the Company may not issue equity securities to a related party without shareholder approval, unless an exception in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 applies.

Under Exception 14 in Listing Rule 7.2 an issue of equity securities that is approved by the Company’s shareholders under ASX Listing Rule 10.11 and under Exception 9 in Listing Rule 7.2 their subsequent conversion or exercise into shares will not use up the Company’s 15% limit and therefore does not reduce the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future. If the resolution proposed in Item 10a) is passed, the proposed issue of Convertible Notes and Warrants to Dr George will be permitted to proceed even though he is a director and related party and in addition the Securities issued (comprising the Convertible Notes and Warrants to be issued under the George Subscription Agreement and any Shares issued on the conversion or exercise of the Notes or Warrants) will not be counted towards the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1.

For the purposes of the related party provisions in Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, the Directors consider that the terms of the George Subscription Agreement and the proposed terms of issue of the Convertible Notes and Warrants to Dr George or his affiliate are reasonable in the circumstances if the Company and Dr George were dealing at arm’s length or are less favourable to Dr George than arm’s length terms. b) Approval of Proposed Issue of Convertible Notes and Warrants to Cova Holdings LP By the resolution proposed in Item 10b), the Company is seeking the approval of shareholders for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and for all other purposes, in respect of the potential issue to Cova of Warrants and Convertible Notes, with the Convertible Notes issuable by the Company at its sole discretion under the Cova Subscription Agreement.

24 Mesoblast Limited – Notice of Annual General Meeting 2025 Item 11 – Approval of Previous Issues of Securities The Company is seeking the approval of shareholders for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.4 and for all other purposes, in respect of the issue of fully paid ordinary shares in the Company (Shares) that was made by the Company resulting from: • the issue of 10,228,239 Shares to Osiris Therapeutics Inc. announced to ASX on 6 January 2025 as contingent consideration in relation to the US Food and Drug Administration approving Ryoncil® (remestemcel-L) in the United States (which announcement summarises the material terms under which the Shares were issued); and • the issue by way of private placement of 104,000,000 Shares primarily to Mesoblast’s existing major US, UK and Australian shareholders announced to ASX on 14 January 2025 (which announcement summarises the material terms under which the Shares were issued), as set out in the table below. Persons to whom the issue was made As noted above. Date of issue of Shares 10,228,239 Share issue announced on 6 January was issued on 7 January 2025. The 104,000,000 Share issue announced on 14 January was issued as follows: • 97,680,000 Shares on 20 January 2025; • 3,095,000 Shares on 22 January 2025; and • 3,225,000 Shares on 24 January 2025. Number of Shares issued 114,228,239 Issue price per Share Share issue announced 6 January – A$3.145 Share issue announced 14 January – A$2.50 Class and material terms of Shares issued Fully paid ordinary shares ranking equally with all other existing fully paid ordinary shares. Use of the funds raised Share issue announced 6 January were issued as contingent consideration in relation to the US Food and Drug Administration approving Ryoncil® in the United States. Funds raised from the Shares issued on 20, 22 and 24 January have and will be used for: • funding adult Phase 3 registration trials for steroid-refractory acute-graft versus host disease and for chronic lower back pain; and • general corporate purposes. The issues of the above Shares (in this Item 11) were within the 15% limitation imposed by ASX Listing Rule 7.1. Under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, the Company may not issue equity securities in excess of 15% of its share capital in any 12-month rolling period without shareholder approval, unless an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 applies. ASX Listing Rule 7.4 permits a company to obtain subsequent approval of a prior issue of securities from its shareholders. If the resolution proposed in Item 11 is passed, this means the prior issue of securities is treated as having been made with shareholder approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1, and thereby refreshes the Company’s ability in the future to issue up to 15% of its share capital without obtaining prior shareholder approval to the extent of the number of Shares being approved under this item. If the resolution proposed in Item 11 is not passed, the issue of the relevant Shares noted above will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities it can issue without shareholder approval over the 12 months following the issue date for those Shares. As noted above, shareholder approval is now being sought for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.4. Recommendation The Directors recommend that shareholders vote in favour of Item 11.
