5.0 RESOLUTION 5 – APPROVAL OF EXECUTIVE PERFORMANCE RIGHTS PLAN
5.1 Background
Resolution 5 seeks Shareholder approval to adopt the executive performance rights plan ( EPRP or Plan ) as summarised in the Explanatory Memorandum, and for the grant of rights and issue of securities under the EPRP. The EPRP was first approved by shareholders of the Company at the Annual General Meeting held on 29 November 2012. The EPRP allows the Board to grant performance rights to eligible participants in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in the EPRP ( Performance Rights ). Performance Rights will be part of an eligible employee’s remuneration by the Company.
The purpose of the EPRP is to provide incentives for eligible employees, with the aim being to drive long term performance for all Shareholders by fostering a culture of employee share ownership and retention of key employees.
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 restricts the number of securities a listed entity can issue without shareholder approval. However, ASX Listing Rule 7.2 sets out a number of exceptions to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. ASX Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 9(b) provides that Listing Rule 7.1 does not apply to an issue of securities under an employee incentive scheme if within three years before the date of issue holders of ordinary securities have approved the issue of securities under the employee incentive scheme as an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
The Company has issued the following Performance Rights under the EPRP.
| Grantee | Number Granted | Date Granted | Date issued |
|---|---|---|---|
| Guy Robertson | 250,000 | 29/11/12 | Rights lapsed not issued |
| George Frangeskides |
100,000 | 29/11/12 | Rights lapsed not issued |
No consideration was payable by these persons for the rights.
In summary 350,000 Performance Rights have been issued, none have vested and all have lapsed
A summary of the EPRP is provided below. Capitalised terms used in the following summary are as defined in the Explanatory Memorandum or in the Glossary.

ORDINARY RESOLUTIONS
Resolutions 6 to 8 are dependent on Resolution 4 being passed by shareholders.
- 6.0 Resolution 6 – Approval of issue of performance rights and shares to David Linegas
6.1 Background
The Artemis Executive Performance Rights Plan ( the Rights Plan ) and issue of shares under the Rights Plan was first approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of the Company held on 29 November 2012, and approved by shareholders in resolution 5 above.
ASX Listing Rule 10.14 provides that the acquisition of shares under an employee incentive scheme by a director requires shareholder approval. Shareholder approval is therefore sought for the issue of 9,000,000 Rights ( Rights ) under the Rights Plan to Mr David Linegas, an Executive Director of the Company, and to the issue of shares on the exercise of such of those Rights which vest upon satisfaction of the applicable vesting conditions.
As the Company is a mineral exploration and development company the Board has determined, where possible, to pay base remuneration less than market rates to its executive directors, employees and individual contractors with remuneration to be supplemented by Rights issued under the Rights Plan to ensure attraction, retention and ongoing incentives for its executives and employees.
In deciding on the quantum of Rights to be issued to Mr Linegas, the Board considered the current share price, the performance period which will be two years from date of grant, and the performance hurdles outlined below. Mr Linegas currently receives Directors fees of $180,000 per annum and received a sign on fee of 25,000,000 shares in February 2017. Based on this and given the Company's circumstances and having regard to the performance hurdles on vesting of the Rights the Board considers that the allocation of Rights is reasonable and appropriate.
No consideration is payable for the Rights, or upon issue of shares upon satisfaction of the vesting conditions associated with the Rights. Subject to the satisfaction of the vesting conditions described below and any adjustments made in accordance with the Rights Plan, Mr Linegas will receive one share in the Company for each Right granted.
