This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND REPORTS
In accordance with the Corporations Act, the business of the Meeting will include receipt and consideration of the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2025 together with the declaration of the Directors, the Directors’ report, the Remuneration Report and the auditor’s report.
The Company will not provide a hard copy of the Company’s annual financial report to Shareholders unless specifically requested to do so. The Company’s annual financial report is available on its website at: www.carnabyresources.com.au.
1. RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT
1.1 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.
1.2 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.
1.3 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.

2. RESOLUTION 2 – RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTOR – MR GREG BARRETT
2.1 General
Listing Rule 14.4 and clause 14.2 of the Constitution provide that, other than a managing director, a director of an entity must not hold office (without re-election) past the third annual general meeting following the director’s appointment or three years, whichever is the longer. However, where there is more than one managing director, only one is entitled to be exempt from this rotation requirement.
Mr Greg Barrett, having held office without re-election since 24 November 2022 and being eligible, retires by rotation and seeks re-election.
Further information in relation to Mr Greg Barrett is set out below.
| Qualifications, experience and other material directorships |
Mr Barrett has over 25 years’ experience as a corporate and finance professional, primarily within the mining industry. Mr Barrett has previously served as the Chief Financial Officer of several ASX-Listed companies with operating gold mines in Australia and abroad. Prior to commencing in commerce, Mr Barrett was employed by KPMG. Mr Barrett holds a Bachelor of Commerce from the University of Western Australia. |
|---|---|
| Term of office | Mr Barrett has served as a Director since 12 March 2020 and was last re-elected on 24 November 2022. |
| Independence | If re-elected the Board considers that Mr Barrett will be an independent Director. |
| Board recommendation |
The Board (other than Mr Barrett) has reviewed Mr Barrett’s performance since his appointment to the Board and considers that Mr Barrett’s skills and experience will continue to enhance the Board’s ability to perform its role. Accordingly, the Board supports the re-election of Mr Barrett and recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution. |
2.2 Technical Information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, Mr Barrett will be re-elected to the Board as a non-executive independent Director.
In the event that this Resolution is not passed, Mr Barrett will not continue as a Director. The Company may seek nominations or otherwise identify suitable qualified candidates to join the Company. As an additional consequence this may detract from the Board and the Company’s ability to execute on its strategic vision.
3. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL OF 7.1A MANDATE
3.1 General
This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval by way of special resolution for the Company to have the additional 10% placement capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval.
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.
However, under Listing Rule 7.1A, an eligible entity may seek shareholder approval by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25% ( 7.1A Mandate ).
An ‘eligible entity’ means an entity which is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300,000,000 or less. As of the 16 October 2025, the Company’s
7
market capitalisation is $116,738,127. The Company is therefore an eligible entity for these purposes.
3.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
For this Resolution to be passed, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be cast in favour of the Resolution.
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.
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 under 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.
3.3
Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.3A
Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to this Resolution.
| REQUIRED INFORMATION | DETAILS |
|---|---|
| Period for which the 7.1A Mandate is valid |
The 7.1A Mandate will commence on the date of the Meeting and expire on the first to occur of the following: (a) the date that is 12 months after the date of this Meeting; (b) the time and date of the Company’s next annual general meeting; and (c) the time and date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change in the nature or scale of activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of the main undertaking). |
| Minimum price | Any Equity Securities issued under the 7.1A Mandate must be in an existing quoted class of Equity Securities and be issued for cash consideration at a minimum price of 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before: (a) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed by the entity and the recipient of the Equity Securities; or (b) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 trading days of the date in paragraph (a) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued. |
| Use of funds | The Company intends to use any funds raised from issues of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate for the continued exploration and development of its current projects, the acquisition of new resources, assets and investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition) the development of the Company’s current business and/or general working capital. |
| Risk of economic and voting dilution |
Any issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue. If this Resolution is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 7.1A Mandate, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below. The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in Listing Rule 7.1A.2,on the basis of the closingmarketprice of Shares |

The table above uses the following assumptions:
-
There are currently 238,241,076 Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice.
-
The issue price set out above is the closing market price of the Shares on the ASX on 16 October 2025 (being $0.49).
-
The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate.
-
The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
-
The issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate consists only of Shares. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities. If the issue of Equity Securities includes quoted Options, it is assumed that those quoted Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.
-
The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.
-
This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under Listing Rule 7.1 unless otherwise disclosed.
-
The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.

The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 7.1A Mandate, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.

The Company will determine the recipients at the time of the issue under the 7.1A Mandate, having regard to the following factors: (a) the purpose of the issue; (b) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue, share purchase plan, placement or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate; (c) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company; (d) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company; (e) prevailing market conditions; and (f) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable). |

4. RESLUTION 4 – RENEWAL OF THE COMPANY’S EMPLOYEE INCENTIVE SECURITIES PLAN
4.1 General
This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval for purposes of Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)) for the issue of a maximum of 18,000,000 Securities under the employee incentive scheme titled “Employee Incentive Securities Plan” ( Plan ).
The objective of the Plan is to attract, motivate and retain key employees, contractors and other persons who provide services to the Company, and the Company considers that the adoption of the Plan and the future issue of Securities under the Plan will provide these parties with the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company.
A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 3.1 above.
Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(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 of the securities, the holders of the entity’s ordinary securities have approved the issue of equity securities under the scheme as exception to Listing Rule 7.1.
11
Exception 13(b) is only available if and to the extent that the number of equity securities issued under the scheme does not exceed the maximum number set out in the entity’s notice of meeting dispatched to shareholders in respect of the meeting at which shareholder approval was obtained pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)). Exception 13(b) also ceases to be available if there is a material change to the terms of the scheme from those set out in the notice of meeting.
4.2 Technical Information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to issue Securities under the Plan to eligible participants over a period of 3 years. The issue of any Securities to eligible participants under the Plan (up to the maximum number of Securities stated in Section 4.3 below) will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Company must seek Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14 in respect of any future issues of Securities under the Plan to a related party or a person whose relationship with the Company or the related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained.
If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of Securities under the Plan to eligible participants, but any issues of Securities will reduce, to that extent, the Company’s capacity to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the issue of the Securities.

5. RESOLUTION 5 – RATIFICATION OF CONSIDERATION SHARES – LATITUDE 66 AGREEMENT
5.1 Background
This Resolution seeks Shareholder ratification for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of 9,852,217 Shares to Latitude 66 Limited (ASX: LAT) ( Latitude 66 ) on 15 October 2025.
On 31 July 2025, the Company announced that it had agreed terms to acquire the remaining 17.5% interest in the Greater Duchess Copper Gold Joint Venture from joint venture partner Latitude 66 (the Transaction ). The Transaction completed on 16 October 2025.
12
Under the binding heads of agreement for the Transaction ( Lat 66 Agreement ), the Company acquired 100% of Latitude 66’s rights, title and interests in the Greater Duchess Copper Gold Joint Venture for total consideration of A$6,000,000. The consideration was to be satisfied on the following basis:
-
(a) A$2,000,000 satisfied in cash at completion of the Transaction; and
-
(b) $4,000,000 satisfied by the issue of 9,852,217 Shares at completion of the Transaction using a deemed issue price of A$0.406 per Share ( Consideration Shares ), which is equal to the 30-day volume weighted average price for the period ending on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the Company’s acceptance of Latitude 66’s notice of offer. The Consideration Shares are the subject of this Resolution.
The Lat 66 Agreement otherwise contains other customary terms and conditions typical for an agreement of its nature, including warranties and indemnities, pre-completion undertakings, termination rights and confidentiality provisions.
For further information on the Transaction, please refer to the Company’s ASX announcements dated 31 July 2025 and 16 October 2025.
5.2
Listing Rule 7.1
A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 3.1 above.
The issue of the Consideration Shares does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Consideration Shares.
5.3 Listing Rule 7.4
Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.
The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Consideration Shares.
5.4
Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, the issue will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of the issue.
If this Resolution is not passed, the issue will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of the issue.

6.4 Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A
A summary of Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A is set out in Section 3.1 above.
The agreement to issue the Shares under the Placement does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12 month period following the date of the agreement to issue the Shares under the Placement.
6.5
Listing Rule 7.4
Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.
The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the agreement to issue the Shares under the Placement.
6.6
Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If this Resolution is passed, the agreement to issue the Shares under the Placement will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of the agreement to issue the Shares under the Placement.
If this Resolution is not passed, the agreement to issue the Shares under the Placement will be included in calculating the Company’s 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of the agreement to issue the Shares under the Placement.

7. RESOLUTION 7 – INSERTION OF PROPORTIONAL TAKEOVER PROVISIONS IN THE CONSTITUTION
7.1 General
A proportional takeover bid is a takeover bid where the offer made to each shareholder is only for a proportion of that shareholder’s shares.
Pursuant to section 648G of the Corporations Act, an entity may include a provision in its constitution whereby a proportional takeover bid for shares may only proceed after the bid has been approved by a meeting of shareholders held in accordance with the terms set out in the Corporations Act.
In accordance with section 648G(1) of the Corporations Act, such clause will cease to apply at the end of three years from the incorporation of the Company, insertion of the clause or renewal of the clause (as appropriate) unless otherwise specified. When this clause ceases to apply, the constitution will be modified by omitting the clause.
A company may renew its proportional takeover approval provisions in the same manner in which a company can modify its constitution (i.e., by special resolution of shareholders).
The proportional takeover provisions contained in clause 36 of the Constitution are no longer operative as it has been more than three years since they were last approved by Shareholders.
This Resolution is a special resolution which will enable the Company to modify its Constitution by re-inserting proportional takeover provisions into the Constitution in the form of clause 36. The new clause 36 is in the same form as the existing clause 36 (as set out in Annexure A of this Notice).
The Company is permitted to seek further Shareholder approval to renew this clause for further periods of up to three years on each occasion.
A copy of the Constitution was released to ASX on 5 December 2019 and is available for download from the Company’s ASX announcements platform.
7.2 Technical information required by section 648G(5) of the Corporations Act
Overview A proportional takeover bid is a takeover bid where the offer made to each shareholder is only for a proportion of that shareholder’s shares.
16
| Pursuant to section 648G of the Corporations Act, the Company has included in the Constitution a provision whereby a proportional takeover bid for Shares may only proceed after the bid has been approved by a meeting of Shareholders held in accordance with the terms set out in the Corporations Act. This clause of the Constitution will cease to have effect on the third anniversary of the date of the adoption of last renewal of the clause. |
|
|---|---|
| Effect of proposed proportional takeover provisions |
Where offers have been made under a proportional off-market bid in respect of a class of securities in a company, the registration of a transfer giving effect to a contract resulting from the acceptance of an offer made under such a proportional off- market bid is prohibited unless and until a Resolution to approve the proportional off-market bid is passed. |
| Reasons for proportional takeover provisions |
A proportional takeover bid may result in control of the Company changing without Shareholders having the opportunity to dispose of all their Shares. By making a partial bid, a bidder can obtain practical control of the Company by acquiring less than a majority interest. Shareholders are exposed to the risk of being left as a minority in the Company and the risk of the bidder being able to acquire control of the Company without payment of an adequate control premium. These amended provisions allow Shareholders to decide whether a proportional takeover bid is acceptable in principle, and assist in ensuring that any partial bid is appropriately priced. |
| Knowledge of any acquisition proposals |
As at the date of this Notice, no Director is aware of any proposal by any person to acquire, or to increase the extent of, a substantial interest in the Company. |
| Potential advantages and disadvantages of proportional takeover provisions |
The Directors consider that the proportional takeover provisions have no potential advantages or disadvantages for them and that they remain free to make a recommendation on whether an offer under a proportional takeover bid should be accepted. The potential advantages of the proportional takeover provisions for Shareholders include: (a) the right to decide by majority vote whether an offer under a proportional takeover bid should proceed; (b) assisting in preventing Shareholders from being locked in as a minority; (c) increasing the bargaining power of Shareholders which may assist in ensuring that any proportional takeover bid is adequately priced; and (d) each individual Shareholder may better assess the likely outcome of the proportional takeover bid by knowing the view of the majority of Shareholders which may assist in deciding whether to accept or reject an offer under the takeover bid. The potential disadvantages of the proportional takeover provisions for Shareholders include: (a) proportional takeover bids may be discouraged; (b) lost opportunity to sell a portion of their Shares at a premium; and (c) the likelihood of a proportional takeover bid succeeding may be reduced. |
17
| Recommendation of the Board |
The Directors do not believe the potential disadvantages outweigh the potential advantages of adopting the proportional takeover provisions and as a result consider that the proportional takeover provision in the Constitution is in the interest of Shareholders and unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution. |

A summary of the material terms of the Company’s Employee Incentive Plan ( Plan ) is set out below.
| Eligible Participant | Eligible Participantmeans a person that is a ‘primary participant’ (as that term is defined in Division 1A of Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act) in relation to the Company or an Associated Body Corporate (as defined in the Corporations Act) and has been determined by the Board to be eligible to participate in the Plan from time to time. |
|---|---|
| Purpose | The purpose of the Plan is to: (a) assist in the reward, retention and motivation of Eligible Participants; (b) link the reward of Eligible Participants to Shareholder value creation; and (c) align the interests of Eligible Participants with shareholders of the Group (being the Company and each of its Associated Bodies Corporate), by providing an opportunity to Eligible Participants to receive an equity interest in the Company in the form of a Share, Option, Performance Right or other Convertible Security (Securities). |
| Plan administration | The Plan will be administered by the Board. The Board may exercise any power or discretion conferred on it by the Plan rules in its sole and absolute discretion (except to the extent that it prevents the Participant relying on the deferred tax concessions under Subdivision 83A-C of the_Income Tax_ Assessment Act 1997(Cth)). The Board may delegate its powers and discretion. |
| Eligibility, invitation and application |
The Board may from time to time determine that an Eligible Participant may participate in the Plan and make an invitation to that Eligible Participant to apply for any (or any combination of) the Securities provided under the Plan on such terms and conditions as the Board decides. On receipt of an invitation, an Eligible Participant may apply for the Securities the subject of the invitation by sending a completed application form to the Company. The Board may accept an application from an Eligible Participant in whole or in part. If an Eligible Participant is permitted in the invitation, the Eligible Participant may, by notice in writing to the Board, nominate a party in whose favour the Eligible Participant wishes to renounce the invitation. |
| Grant of Securities | The Company will, to the extent that it has accepted a duly completed application, grant the Participant the relevant number and type of Securities, subject to the terms and conditions set out in the invitation, the Plan rules and any ancillary documentation required. |
| Rights attaching to Convertible Securities |
AConvertible Securityrepresents a right to acquire one or more Plan Shares in accordance with the Plan (for example, an Option or a Performance Right). Prior to a Convertible Security being exercised, the holder: (a) does not have any interest (legal, equitable or otherwise) in any Share the subject of the Convertible Security other than as expressly set out in the Plan; (b) is not entitled to receive notice of, vote at or attend a meeting of the shareholders of the Company; (c) is not entitled to receive any dividends declared by the Company; and |
21
| (d) is not entitled to participate in any new issue of Shares (see Adjustment of Convertible Securities section below). |
|
|---|---|
| Vesting of Convertible Securities |
Any vesting conditions which must be satisfied before Convertible Securities can be exercised and converted to Shares will be described in the invitation. If all the vesting conditions are satisfied and/or otherwise waived by the Board, a vesting notice will be sent to the Participant by the Company informing them that the relevant Convertible Securities have vested. Unless and until the vesting notice is issued by the Company, the Convertible Securities will not be considered to have vested. For the avoidance of doubt, if the vesting conditions relevant to a Convertible Security are not satisfied and/or otherwise waived by the Board, that Convertible Security will lapse. |
| Exercise of Convertible Securities and cashless exercise |
To exercise a Convertible Security, the Participant must deliver a signed notice of exercise and, subject to a cashless exercise of Convertible Securities (see next paragraph below), pay the exercise price (if any) to or as directed by the Company, at any time following vesting of the Convertible Security (if subject to vesting conditions) and prior to the expiry date as set out in the invitation or vesting notice. An invitation may specify that at the time of exercise of the Convertible Securities, the Participant may elect not to be required to provide payment of the exercise price for the number of Convertible Securities specified in a notice of exercise, but that on exercise of those Convertible Securities the Company will transfer or issue to the Participant that number of Shares equal in value to the positive difference between the Market Value of the Shares at the time of exercise and the exercise price that would otherwise be payable to exercise those Convertible Securities. Market Valuemeans, at any given date, the volume weighted average price per Share traded on the ASX over the 5 trading days immediately preceding that given date, unless otherwise specified in an invitation. A Convertible Security may not be exercised unless and until that Convertible Security has vested in accordance with the Plan rules, or such earlier date as set out in the Plan rules. |
| Timing of issue of Shares and quotation of Shares on exercise |
As soon as practicable after the valid exercise of a Convertible Security by a Participant, the Company will issue or cause to be transferred to that Participant the number of Shares to which the Participant is entitled under the Plan rules and issue a substitute certificate for any remaining unexercised Convertible Securities held by that Participant. |
| Restrictions on dealing with Convertible Securities |
A holder may not sell, assign, transfer, grant a security interest over or otherwise deal with a Convertible Security that has been granted to them unless otherwise determined by the Board. A holder must not enter into any arrangement for the purpose of hedging their economic exposure to a Convertible Security that has been granted to them. However, in Special Circumstances as defined under the Plan (including in the case of death or total or permanent disability of the Participant) a Participant may deal with Convertible Securities granted to them under the Plan with the consent of the Board. |
| Listing of Convertible Securities |
A Convertible Security granted under the Plan will not be quoted on the ASX or any other recognised exchange. The Board reserves the right in its absolute discretion to apply for quotation of an Option granted under the Plan on the ASX or any other recognised exchange. |
| Forfeiture of Convertible Securities |
Convertible Securities will be forfeited in the following circumstances: (a) where a Participant who holds Convertible Securities ceases to be an Eligible Participant (e.g. is no longer employed or their office or engagement is discontinued with the Group), all unvested Convertible Securities will automatically be forfeited by the Participant; |
22
| (b) where a Participant acts fraudulently or dishonestly, negligently, in contravention of any Group policy or wilfully breaches their duties to the Group; (c) where there is a failure to satisfy the vesting conditions in accordance with the Plan; (d) on the date the Participant becomes insolvent; or (e) on the Expiry Date. |
|
|---|---|
| Change of control | If a change of control event occurs, or the Board determines that such an event is likely to occur, the Board may in its discretion determine the manner in which any or all of the holder’s Convertible Securities will be dealt with, including, without limitation, in a manner that allows the holder to participate in and/or benefit from any transaction arising from or in connection with the change of control event. |
| Adjustment of Convertible Securities |
If there is a reorganisation of the issued share capital of the Company (including any subdivision, consolidation, reduction, return or cancellation of such issued capital of the Company), the rights of each Participant holding Convertible Securities will be changed to the extent necessary to comply with the Listing Rules applicable to a reorganisation of capital at the time of the reorganisation. If Shares are issued by the Company by way of bonus issue (other than an issue in lieu of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment), the holder of Convertible Securities is entitled, upon exercise of the Convertible Securities, to receive an issue of as many additional Shares as would have been issued to the holder if the holder held Shares equal in number to the Shares in respect of which the Convertible Securities are exercised. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, a holder of Convertible Securities does not have the right to participate in a pro rata issue of Shares made by the Company or sell renounceable rights. |
| Plan Shares | The Board may, from time to time, make an invitation to an Eligible Participant to acquire Plan Shares under the Plan. The Board will determine in its sole an absolute discretion the acquisition price (if any) for each Plan Share which may be nil. The Plan Shares may be subject to performance hurdles and/or vesting conditions as determined by the Board. Where Plan Shares granted to a Participant are subject to performance hurdles and/or vesting conditions, the Participant’s Plan Shares will be subject to certain restrictions until the applicable performance hurdles and/or vesting conditions (if any) have been satisfied, waived by the Board or are deemed to have been satisfied under the Rules. |
| Rights attaching to Plan Shares |
All Shares issued or transferred under the Plan or issued or transferred to a Participant upon the valid exercise of a Convertible Security, (Plan Shares) will rank equally in all respects with the Shares of the same class for the time being on issue except for any rights attaching to the Shares by reference to a record date prior to the date of the allotment or transfer of the Plan Shares. A Participant will be entitled to any dividends declared and distributed by the Company on the Plan Shares and may participate in any dividend reinvestment plan operated by the Company in respect of Plan Shares. A Participant may exercise any voting rights attaching to Plan Shares. |
| Disposal restrictions on Plan Shares |
If the invitation provides that any Plan Shares are subject to any restrictions as to the disposal or other dealing by a Participant for a period, the Board may implement any procedure it deems appropriate to ensure the compliance by the Participant with this restriction. For so long as a Plan Share is subject to any disposal restrictions under the Plan, the Participant will not: |
23
| (a) transfer, encumber or otherwise dispose of, or have a security interest granted over that Plan Share; or (b) take any action or permit another person to take any action to remove or circumvent the disposal restrictions without the express written consent of the Company. |
|
|---|---|
| General Restrictions on Transfer of Plan Shares |
If the Company is required but is unable to give ASX a notice that complies with section 708A(5)(e) of the Corporations Act, Plan Shares issued under the Plan (including on exercise of Convertible Securities) may not be traded until 12 months after their issue unless the Company, at its sole discretion, elects to issue a prospectus pursuant to section 708A(11) of the Act. Restrictions are imposed by Applicable Law on dealing in Shares by persons who possess material information likely to affect the value of the Shares and which is not generally available. These laws may restrict the acquisition or disposal of Shares by you during the time the holder has such information. Any Plan Shares issued to a holder under the Plan (including upon exercise of Convertible Securities) shall be subject to the terms of the Company’s Securities Trading Policy. |
| Buy-Back | Subject to applicable law, the Company may at any time buy-back Securities in accordance with the terms of the Plan. |
| Employee Share Trust | The Board may in its sole and absolute discretion use an employee share trust or other mechanism for the purposes of holding Convertible Securities for holders under the Plan and delivering Shares on behalf of holders upon exercise of Convertible Securities. |
| Maximum number of Securities |
