CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

TOMBADOR IRON LIMITED

This Corporate Governance Statement is current as at 28 March 2025 and has been approved by the Board of the Company on that date.

This Corporate Governance Statement discloses the extent to which the Company will follow the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council in its publication Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations – 4[th ] Edition ( Recommendations ). The Recommendations are not mandatory, however the Recommendations that will not be followed have been identified and reasons provided for not following them along with what (if any) alternative governance practices the Company intends to adopt in lieu of the recommendation.

The Company has adopted a Corporate Governance Plan which provides the written terms of reference for the Company’s corporate governance duties.

Due to the current size and nature of the existing Board and the magnitude of the Company’s operations, the Board does not consider that the Company will gain any benefit from individual Board committees and that its resources would be better utilised in other areas as the Board is of the strong view that at this stage the experience and skill set of the current Board is sufficient to perform these roles. Under the Company’s Board Charter, the duties that would ordinarily be assigned to individual committees are currently carried out by the full Board under the written terms of reference for those committees.

The Company’s Corporate Governance Plan is available on the Company’s website at https://www.tombadoriron.com/

EXPLANATION

Under the Nomination Committee Charter (in the Company’s Corporate Governance Plan), the Nomination Committee (or, in its absence, the Board) is required to prepare a Board skills matrix setting out the mix of skills that the Board currently has (or is looking to achieve) and to review this at least annually against the Company’s Board skills matrix to ensure the appropriate mix of skills to discharge its obligations effectively and to add value and to ensure the Board has the ability to deal with new and emerging business and governance issues.

The Board will undertake an evaluation of the skills matrix to ensure that the Board’s skills satisfy the ongoing skills and experience needed to execute the Company’s business strategy and to identify any gaps in the skills and experience of the Board. The Board will then assess all future candidates for Board positions and the performance of its current membership on this basis.

The Board Charter requires the disclosure of each Board member’s qualifications and expertise. Full details as to each Director and senior executive’s relevant skills and experience are available in the Company’s Annual Report.

  • (a) The Board Charter requires the disclosure of the names of Directors considered by the Board to be independent. The Company discloses those Directors it considers to be independent in its Annual Report and on the Company’s website. The Board considers there are two independent Directors: Ms Anna Neuling and Mr David Chapman.
