Corporate Representatives

If a representative of a corporate Shareholder or a corporate proxy will be attending the Meeting, the representative should provide the Share Registry with adequate evidence of their appointment, unless this has previously been provided to the Share Registry.

Undirected and Directed Proxies

The Company encourages all Shareholders who submit proxies to direct their proxy how to vote on each Resolution.

The Company will not disregard any votes cast on a Resolution by a person if the person is the Chair voting an undirected proxy and their appointment expressly authorises the Chair to exercise the proxy.

If you intend to appoint the Chair as your proxy, you can direct him how to vote by marking the boxes for each resolution (for example, if you wish to vote “For”, “Against” or “Abstain”), or you

1

cannot mark any of the boxes and give the Chair your express authority to vote your undirected proxy (in which case the Chair will vote in favour of all Resolutions).

If you intend to appoint a Director (other than the Chair) or another member of the Key Management Personnel, or their Closely Related Parties as your proxy, you must specify how they should vote on Resolution 1 by marking the appropriate box. If you do not, your proxy will not be able to exercise your vote for Resolution 1. If the Chair is your proxy (or if they are appointed by default) but you do not direct them how to vote on a resolution (that is, you do not mark any of the boxes “For”, “Against” or “Abstain” opposite that resolution), the Chair may then vote as they see fit on that resolution.

If you mark more than one box on an item your vote will be invalid on that item.

In accordance with the Corporations Act, any directed proxies that are not voted on a poll at the meeting will automatically default to the Chair, who is required to vote proxies as directed.

It is the Chair’s intention to vote all undirected proxies in favour of all Resolutions . In exceptional circumstances, the Chair may change his/her voting intention on any Resolution. In the event this occurs, an ASX announcement will be made immediately disclosing the reasons for the change.

Asking Questions

We encourage you to submit questions in advance of the Meeting on any matter that may be relevant to the Meeting. You can do this sending your question to the Company Secretary by email to [email protected].

To allow time to collate questions and prepare answers, you must submit any questions at least 5 days before the Meeting.

Questions will be collated and, during the Meeting, the Chair of the Meeting will seek to address as many of the more frequently raised topics as possible. However, there may not be sufficient time available at the Meeting to address all topics raised. Please note that individual responses will not be sent to shareholders.

Shareholders and proxy holders will also have the ability to listen to the discussion at the Meeting and ask questions during the Meeting.

COVID-19 MEETING PROTOCOLS

The Company advises Shareholders that the Meeting will be held to comply with the Government’s recommendations in relation to gatherings of persons during the current COVID-19 situation. As at the date of this notice, Government directives and recommendations on gatherings and travel restrictions mean that some Shareholders may not be able to attend the Meeting in person. The Company therefore strongly encourages Shareholders who wish to vote on the business of the Meeting to do so by lodging a directed proxy prior to the date of Meeting as per the instructions on the Proxy Form.

Shareholders can submit any questions in advance of the Meeting by emailing them to [email protected] .

The Meeting will consider only the business detailed in the Agenda below, followed by a Company update presentation made to Shareholders.

2. RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT

2.1 General

The Corporations Act requires that at a listed company’s annual general meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted must be put to the shareholders. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the company or the directors of the company.

The remuneration report sets out the company’s remuneration arrangements for the directors and senior management of the company. The remuneration report is part of the directors’ report contained in the annual financial report of the company for a financial year.

The chair of the meeting must allow a reasonable opportunity for its shareholders to ask questions about or make comments on the remuneration report at the annual general meeting.

2.2 Voting consequences

A company is required to put to its shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of another meeting of shareholders to consider the appointment of directors of the company ( Spill Resolution ) if, at consecutive annual general meetings, at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report and at the first of those annual general meetings a Spill Resolution was not put to vote. If required, the Spill Resolution must be put to vote at the second of those annual general meetings.

If more than 50% of votes cast are in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene a shareholder meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting.

All of the directors of the company who were in office when the directors' report (as included in the company’s annual financial report for the most recent financial year) was approved, other than the managing director of the company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting. Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election as directors of the company is approved will be the directors of the company.

2.3 Previous voting results

At the Company’s previous annual general meeting the votes cast against the remuneration report considered at that annual general meeting were less than 25%. Accordingly, the Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Annual General Meeting.

3. RESOLUTION 2 - RE-ELECTION OF BRYAN DIXON AS DIRECTOR

3.1 General

Clause 14.2 of the Company’s Constitution requires that at the Company’s annual general meeting in every year, one-third of the Directors for the time being, or if their number is not a multiple of 3 then the number nearest one-third (rounded upwards in case of doubt), shall retire from office, provided always that no Director except a Managing Director shall hold office for a period in excess of 3 years, or until the third annual general meeting following their appointment,

6

whichever is the longer, without submitting himself for re-election. The Directors to retire at an annual general meeting are those who have been longest in office since their last election. A retiring Director is eligible for re-election.

ASX Listing Rule 14.4 also provides that each Director must not hold office (without re-election) past the third annual general meeting following the Director’s appointment or 3 years, whichever is longer.

3.2 Bryan Dixon – Non-Executive Director

Bryan Dixon was appointed as a Director upon incorporation on 1 April 2021.

Under this Resolution, Mr Dixon has elected to retire by rotation in accordance with clause 14.2 of the Company’s Constitution, and being eligible, seeks reelection as a Director at this AGM.

Mr Dixon has over 20 years’ experience in the mining sector and was Managing Director of Blackham Resources Ltd (now Wiluna Mining Corporation Ltd), a West Australian Gold Producer, until May 2019. Mr Dixon has extensive experience in the management of public listed companies, emerging resource companies and has been employed by an international accounting firm, Resolute Limited, and Archipelago Resources Plc. Mr Dixon specializes in mergers and acquisitions, feasibility, development, financing and operations of mining projects.

3.3 Directors’ recommendation

The Directors (excluding Mr Dixon) recommend that Shareholders vote for this Resolution.

4. RESOLUTION 3 – ASX LISTING RULE 7.1A (ADDITIONAL 10% CAPACITY) APPROVAL OF FUTURE ISSUE OF SECURITIES

4.1 General

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12-month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that period.

Under Listing Rule 7.1A, however, an eligible entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to add an additional 10% capacity.

An eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation less than the amount prescribed by ASX (currently $300 million).

As of 20 October 2022, based on a closing Share price of $0.17, the Company has a market capitalisation of approximately $9.45 million and therefore is an eligible entity. If at the time of the Meeting the Company is no longer an eligible entity this Resolution will be withdrawn.

This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution for the Company to have the additional 10% capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval.

If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to issue equity securities up to the combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without any further Shareholder approval.

7

If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the additional 10% capacity to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A and will remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing equity securities without Shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.

4.2 Information Required by ASX Listing Rule 7.3A

The following information is provided to Shareholder for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3A.

Period for which the approval will be valid

An approval under this Listing Rule 7.1A commences on the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained and expires on the first to occur of the following:

  • (a) the date which is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained;

  • (b) the time and date of the entity’s next annual general meeting; and

  • (c) the time and date on which Shareholders approve a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking).

Minimum price at which the equity securities may be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A

Any equity securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 must be an existing quoted class of the Company’s equity securities and issued for cash consideration.

The issue price per equity security must not be less than 75% of the volume weighted average market price of the equity securities in that class, calculated over 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • (a) the date on which the price at the equity securities are to be issued is agreed by the Company and the recipient of the equity securities; and

  • (b) if the equity securities are not issued within 10 trading days of the date in paragraph (a), the date on which the equity securities are issued.

Purposes for which the funds raised by an issue of equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A may be used

As noted above, any equity securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 must be issued for cash consideration. Accordingly, every issue of equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 will have an accompanying proposed use of funds at the time of issue.

As at the date of this Notice, the Company has not formed an intention to offer any equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the Listing Rule 7.1A mandate period, if Shareholders approve this Resolution. However, if Shareholders approved this Resolution and the Company did raise funds from the issue of equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, based on the Company’s existing plans, the Company considers that the funds may be used for the following purposes:

  • (a) to further develop the Company’s business;

  • (b) for general corporate purposes, including working capital requirements.

Risk of economic and voting dilution to existing ordinary Securityholders

If this Resolution is approved, and the Company issues equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, the existing Shareholders’ economic and voting power in the

8

Company will be diluted.

There is a risk that:

  • (a) the market price for the Company’s equity securities in that class may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the approval under Listing Rule 7.1A; and

  • (b) the equity securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount (as described above) to the market price for the Company’s equity securities on the issue date;

which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.

The table below shows the potential dilution of existing Securityholders on the basis of 3 different assumed issue prices and values for the variable “A” in the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2:

Notes:

  • (a) Based on the total number of fully paid ordinary Shares on issue as at 20 October 2022.

  • (b) Based on the closing price of the Company’s Shares on ASX as at 20 October 2022.

  • (c) The table assumes that the Company issues the maximum number of ordinary Shares available to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.

  • (d) The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of issues of equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of this Explanatory Statement.

  • (e) The table shows the effect of an issue of equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A only, not under the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Allocation policy for issues under Listing Rule 7.1A

The Company’s allocation policy and the identity of the allottees of equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A will depend on a number of factors, including:

9

  • (a) the Company’s intentions in relation to the possible issue of equity securities (for cash consideration) during the Listing Rule 7.1A mandate period;

  • (b) the structure and timeframe of the capital raising opportunities available to the Company and any alternative methods for raising funds that are available to the Company (such as a pro rata offer or an offer under a share purchase plan);

  • (c) the potential effect on the control of the Company;

  • (d) the Company’s financial position and the likely future capital requirements; and

  • (e) advice from the Company’s corporate or financial advisors.

Based on the Company’s historical cashflow reports and capital raising activities in the past 12 months, the Company considers that it may raise funds during the Listing Rule 7.1A mandate period, although this cannot be guaranteed. As of the date of this Notice, no specific intention to issue equity securities in relation to any parties, investors or existing Securityholders have been formed. In addition, no intentions have been formed in relation to the possible number of issues, or the time frame in which the issues could be made. Subject to the requirements of the Listing Rules and the Corporations Act, the Board of Directors reserve the right to determine at the time of any issue of equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, the allocation policy that the Company will adopt for that issue.

If and when the determination is made to proceed with an issue of equity securities during the Listing Rule 7.1A mandate period, details regarding the allottees and purposes of issue will be disclosed pursuant to the Company’s obligations under Listing Rules 3.10.3 and 7.1A.4.

Offers made under Listing Rule 7.1A may be made to parties (excluding any related parties) including professional and sophisticated investors, existing Shareholders of the Company, clients of Australian Financial Service Licence holders and/or their nominees, or any other person to whom the Company is able to make an offer of equity securities.

Issue or agreement to issue equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A in the 12 months prior to AGM

In the 12 months preceding the date of the Meeting (the period commencing 26 November 2021), the Company has not issued Shares using the 10% placement capacity available under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.

A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice. At the date of the Notice, the Company has not invited any particular existing Shareholder or security holder or an identifiable class of existing security holder to participate in an issue of Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. No existing Shareholder’s votes will therefore be excluded under the voting exclusion in the Notice.

This Resolution is a Special Resolution. For a Special Resolution to be passed, at least 75% of the votes validly cast on the resolution by Shareholders (by number of ordinary shares) must be in favour of this Resolution.

4.3 Directors’ recommendation

The Board of Directors recommend that Shareholders vote for this Resolution.

HOW TO COMPLETE THIS SHAREHOLDER PROXY FORM

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ATTEND AND VOTE AT THE MEETING, PLEASE BRING THIS FORM WITH YOU. THIS WILL ASSIST IN REGISTERING YOUR ATTENDANCE.

CHANGE OF ADDRESS

This form shows your address as it appears on Company’s share register. If this information is incorrect, please make the correction on the form. Shareholders sponsored by a broker should advise their broker of any changes.

APPOINTMENT OF A PROXY

If you wish to appoint the Chair as your proxy, mark the box in Step 1. If you wish to appoint someone other than the Chair, please write that person’s name in the box in Step 1. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company. A proxy may be an individual or a body corporate.

DEFAULT TO THE CHAIR OF THE MEETING

If you leave Step 1 blank, or if your appointed proxy does not attend the Meeting, then the proxy appointment will automatically default to the Chair of the Meeting.

VOTING DIRECTIONS – PROXY APPOINTMENT

You may direct your proxy on how to vote by placing a mark in one of the boxes opposite each resolution of business. All your shares will be voted in accordance with such a direction unless you indicate only a portion of voting rights are to be voted on any resolution by inserting the percentage or number of shares you wish to vote in the appropriate box or boxes. If you do not mark any of the boxes on a given resolution, your proxy may vote as they choose to the extent they are permitted by law. If you mark more than one box on a resolution, your vote on that resolution will be invalid.

CORPORATE REPRESENTATIVES

If a representative of a nominated corporation is to attend the Meeting the appropriate “Certificate of Appointment of Corporate Representative” should be produced prior to admission in accordance with the Notice of Meeting. A Corporate Representative Form may be obtained from Advanced Share Registry.

SIGNING INSTRUCTIONS ON THE PROXY FORM

Individual:

Where the holding is in one name, the security holder must sign.

Joint Holding:

Where the holding is in more than one name, all of the security holders should sign.

Power of Attorney:

If you have not already lodged the Power of Attorney with Advanced Share Registry, please attach the original or a certified photocopy of the Power of Attorney to this form when you return it.

Companies:

Where the company has a Sole Director who is also the Sole Company Secretary, this form must be signed by that person. If the company (pursuant to section 204A of the Corporations Act 2001) does not have a Company Secretary, a Sole Director can sign alone. Otherwise this form must be signed by a Director jointly with either another Director or a Company Secretary. Please sign in the appropriate place to indicate the office held.

PROXY VOTING BY KEY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL

If you wish to appoint a Director (other than the Chair) or other member of the Company’s key management personnel, or their closely related parties, as your proxy, you must specify how they should vote on Resolution 1, by marking the appropriate box. If you do not, your proxy will not be able to exercise your vote for Resolution 1.

PLEASE NOTE: If you appoint the Chair as your proxy (or if they are appointed by default) but do not direct them how to vote on a resolution (that is, you do not complete any of the boxes “For”, “Against” or “Abstain” opposite that resolution), the Chair may vote as they see fit on that resolution.

APPOINTMENT OF A SECOND PROXY

You are entitled to appoint up to two persons as proxies to attend the Meeting and vote on a poll. If you wish to appoint a second proxy, an additional Proxy Form may be obtained by telephoning Advanced Share Registry Limited or you may copy this form and return them both together.

To appoint a second proxy you must:

  • (a) on each Proxy Form state the percentage of your voting rights or number of shares applicable to that form. If the appointments do not specify the percentage or number of votes that each proxy may exercise, each proxy may exercise half your votes. Fractions of votes will be disregarded; and

  • (b) return both forms together.

COMPLIANCE WITH LISTING RULE 14.11

In accordance to Listing Rule 14.11, if you hold shares on behalf of another person(s) or entity/entities or you are a trustee, nominee, custodian or other fiduciary holder of the shares, you are required to ensure that the person(s) or entity/entities for which you hold the shares are not excluded from voting on resolutions where there is a voting exclusion.
