Background
As announced on 17 November 2025, the Company successfully raised A$4,000,000 (before costs) via a strategic placement comprising of:
-
the issue of 40,000,000 new fully paid ordinary shares to Tribeca Investment Partners Pty Ltd ( Tribeca ) at an issue price of $0.10 per Share ( Tribeca Placement Shares ); and
-
the issue of up to 40,000,000 attaching options (being one (1) free attaching option for each Tribeca Placement Share subscribed for by Tribeca), which are exercisable at $0.13 each and have an expiry date of 15 January 2029 ( Tribeca Attaching Options ),
subject to a subscription agreement ( Tribeca Subscription Agreement ) (together, the Tribeca Placement ).
Upon the exercise of the Tribeca Attaching Options, Shares will be issued and they will rank pari passu with the existing ordinary shares on issue in the capital of the Company.
Tribeca’s strategic investment is an important milestone for the Company as it looks to progress development of an In-Situ Copper Recovery ( ISCR ) demonstration plant on the Ngami Copper Project ( Ngami or NCP ) in the Kalahari Copper Belt ( KCB ), Botswana.
The Company is seeking Shareholder approval for the:
-
ratification of the issue of Tribeca Placement Shares, under Resolution 1; and
-
approval of up to 40,000,000 Tribeca Attaching Options, under Resolution 2.
18
Reasons for approval
Listing Rule 7.1 provides that, subject to exceptions in Listing Rule 7.2, a listed company must not without the approval of its holders of ordinary securities, issue or agree to issue more Equity Securities during any 12-month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12-month period.
Under Listing Rule 7.1A, an eligible entity may seek approval from its members to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25%. The relevant approval was obtained by the Company in the Company’s Annual General Meeting held on Wednesday 26 November 2025.
The issue of the Tribeca Placement Shares did not fall within any of the specified exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it used up “placement capacity” under Listing Rule 7.1 (including the additional capacity approved under Listing Rule 7.1A), reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rules 7.1 (including the additional capacity approved under Listing Rule 7.1A) for the 12-month period following the issue date of the Tribeca Placement Shares.
Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to ratify 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 Listing Rule 7.1 (as well as the additional capacity approved under Listing Rule 7.1A) as it effectively falls within an exception in Listing Rule 7.2.
Moreover, the issue of the Tribeca Attaching Options does not fit within any of the exceptions and combined with the Company’s previous issues under Listing Rule 7.1 in the last 12 months, the issue will exceed the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1. Listing Rule 7.3 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of Equity Securities before it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue will not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 (as well as the additional capacity approved under Listing Rule 7.1A) as it effectively falls within an exception in Listing Rule 7.2.
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 (including the additional capacity approved under Listing Rule 7.1A).
Accordingly, Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder approval to ratify the issue of Tribeca Placement Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 and Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder approval to approve the issue of Tribeca Attaching Options under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4.

If Resolution 1 and/or Resolution 2 are not passed, then the issue of:
-
the Tribeca Placement Shares; and/or
-
the Tribeca Attaching Options,
will be included when calculating the Company’s 25% limit under Listing Rule 7.1 (and as increased in accordance with the approval obtained under Listing Rule 7.1A), which will decrease the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval, over the 12-month period starting from the date of issue of the Tribeca Placement Shares and/or Tribeca Attaching Options, respectively.
Resolution 1 and Resolution 2 are not dependent on each other.
Recommendation
The Board believes that the investment in the Company by Tribeca is beneficial for the Company. The ratification of the issue of the Tribeca Placement Shares and the approval of the issue of the Tribeca Attaching Options will allow the Company to retain the flexibility to issue further Equity Securities representing up to 25% of the Company’s share capital under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

“That, for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 and for all other purposes, approval is given to ratify the prior issue and allotment of 25,000,000 Shares issued to Sinomine International Exploration (Hong Kong) Co.

Limited pursuant to the Sinomine Subsequent Investment for the purpose of and on the terms and conditions set out in the Explanatory Memorandum.”
21
Background
On 2 September 2025, the Company announced that it had executed an investment agreement with Sinomine International Exploration (Hong Kong) Co. Limited ( Sinomine ), which, amongst other things comprised of ( Sinomine Investment Agreement ):
-
an initial subscription by Sinomine of A$1,500,000 (before costs) via a strategic placement of 25,000,000 new fully paid ordinary shares to Sinomine International Exploration (Hong Kong) Co. Limited ( Sinomine ) at an issue price of $0.06 per Share ( Sinomine Initial Investment Shares ) ( Sinomine Initial Investment ), which completed on 23 October 2025 and resulted in the issue of the Sinomine Initial Investment Shares under the Company’s existing placement capacity under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A; and
-
an option for Sinomine to subscribe for up to a further 25,000,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.06 per Share and aggregate subscription amount of $1,500,000, provided that Sinomine cannot acquire more than 9.99% of the total issued capital (fully diluted) in Cobre ( Sinomine Call Option ),
together the Sinomine Investment .
The terms of the Sinomine Investment Agreement were summarised in the announcement dated 2 September 2025.
The Company is seeking Shareholder approval for the issue of Shares in the event that Sinomine exercises the Sinomine Call Option and subscribes for 25,000,000 new fully paid ordinary shares ( Sinomine Subsequent Investment Shares ) at an issue price of $0.06 per Share ( Sinomine Subsequent Investment ).
Funds raised under the Sinomine Investment are being used to conduct a follow-up phase of targeted diamond drilling on Cobre’s Okavango Project ( OCP ) in the Kalahari Copper Belt ( KCB ) of Botswana.
When referred to together, the Sinomine Initial Investment Shares and the Sinomine Subsequent Investment Shares are the Sinomine Shares .
Reasons for approval
Listing Rule 7.1 provides that, subject to exceptions in Listing Rule 7.2, a listed company must not without the approval of its holders of ordinary securities, issue or agree to issue more Equity Securities during any 12-month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12-month period.
Under Listing Rule 7.1A, an eligible entity may seek approval from its members to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25%. The relevant approval was obtained by the Company in the Company’s Annual General Meeting held on Wednesday, 26 November 2025.
The issue of the Sinomine Initial Investment Shares did not fall within any of the specified exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and as they have not yet been approved by Shareholders, the issuance has used up “placement capacity” under Listing Rule 7.1 (including the additional capacity approved under Listing Rule 7.1A), reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rules 7.1 (including the additional capacity approved under Listing Rule 7.1A) for the 12-month period following the issue date of the Sinomine Initial Investment Shares.
Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to ratify 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 Listing Rule 7.1 (as well as the additional capacity approved under Listing Rule 7.1A) as it effectively falls within an exception in Listing Rule 7.2.
22
Further, the proposed issue of Sinomine Subsequent Investment Shares does not fall within any of the specified exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
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 (including the additional capacity approved under Listing Rule 7.1A).
Resolution 3 and Resolution 4 seek Shareholder approval to ratify the issue of Sinomine Initial Investment Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 and approve the issue of Sinomine Subsequent Investment Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3, respectively.

If Resolution 3 and/or Resolution 4 are not passed, then the issue of Sinomine Initial Investment Shares and/or the Sinomine Subsequent Investment Shares will be included when calculating the Company’s 25% limit under Listing Rule 7.1 (and as increased in accordance with the approval obtained under Listing Rule 7.1A), which will decrease the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval, over the 12-month period starting from the date of issue of the Sinomine Initial Investment Shares and/or Sinomine Subsequent Investment Shares, respectively.
Recommendation
The Board believes that the investment in the Company by Sinomine is beneficial for the Company.

Background
As announced on Thursday, 12 February 2026, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company entered into an investment agreement and subscription agreement with Minera Salar Blanco SpA ( Proposed
24
Transaction ). Further information regarding the Proposed Transaction is available in the Company’s announcement on the ASX.
As further announced on Thursday, 12 February 2026, the Company has received firm commitments for a two-tranche placement of up to 401,233,333 Shares (in aggregate) at an issue price of $0.15 per Share to raise up to approximately $60,185,000 (in aggregate) ( Two-Tranche Placement ), comprising:
-
(a) 49,161,202 Shares to non-related party participants (representing approximately $7,374,180) ( Tranche 1 Placement Shares ) – the ratification of which is the subject of Resolution 5 and Resolution 6;
-
(b) 329,172,131 Shares to non-related party participants (representing approximately $49,375,820) ( Tranche 2 Placement Shares ) – the issue of which is the subject of Resolution 7;
-
(c) 21,666,667 Shares to Strata Investment (representing approximately $3,250,000) ( Strata Investment Tranche 2 Placement Shares ) – the issue of which is the subject of Resolution 8; and
-
(d) 1,233,333 Shares to certain Directors of the Company who are seeking to participate in the Two-Tranche Placement (representing $185,000) ( Director Placement Shares ) – the issue of which is the subject of Resolution 9 and Resolution 10.
The Company proposes to use funds raised under the Two-Tranche Placement:
-
to partly fund the Proposed Transaction, as outlined above and in the Company’s announcement dated Thursday, 12 February 2026;
-
for expediting exploration for the Sierra Atacama Mining Project; and
-
general working capital purposes.
Shareholder approval is sought under Listing Rule 7.4 to ratify the prior issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares issued on Wednesday, 18 February 2026 and Friday, 20 February 2026, of which 43,296,721 Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued under Listing Rule 7.1 and 5,864,481 Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.
Reason for approval
Listing Rule 7.1 provides that, subject to specified exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2, a company must not, without the approval of its holders of ordinary securities, issue or agree to issue more Equity Securities during any 12-month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12-month period.
Under Listing Rule 7.1A, an eligible entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25%. At the Company’s last annual general meeting held on Wednesday, 26 November 2025, the Company sought and obtained approval of its Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1A to increase this 15% by an extra 10% to 25%.
The issue of Tranche 1 Placement Shares did not fall within any of the specified exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up the expanded 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 Rules 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12-month period following the issue date of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares.
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
25
Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without shareholder approval under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.
The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rules 7.1 and/or 7.1A.
Resolution 5 and Resolution 6 seek Shareholder approval to ratify the issue of Tranche 1 Placement Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 and approve the issue of Tranche 2 Placement Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3, respectively.
Information for Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.5

On the issue of all of the Shares under the Two-Tranche Placement (and assuming all Resolutions under this Notice of Meeting are passed and Shares are issued), the following Two-Tranche Placement participants will become or continue to be substantial holders of the Company:

If Resolution 5 is not passed, the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares 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-month period following the date of issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares.

The Board believes that the ratification of the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares is beneficial for the Company as it allows the Company to retain the flexibility to issue further Equity Securities representing up to 25% of the Company’s share capital under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval. Accordingly, the Board recommends Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5 and Resolution 6.
The Chair intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of Resolution 5 and Resolution 6.
Resolution 7:
Approval of issue of Tranche 2 Placement Shares
“That, for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 and for all other purposes, approval is given for the Company to issue up to 329,172,131 Shares to unrelated parties of the Company pursuant to the Two-Tranche Placement for the purpose of and on the terms and conditions set out in the Explanatory Memorandum.”
27
Background
As set out above, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval to issue up to 329,172,131 Shares to unrelated parties under the Two-Tranche Placement pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.
Reasons for approval
Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions in Listing Rule 7.2, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the number of Equity Securities that a listed company can issue without shareholder approval over any 12- month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities that the company had on issue at the start of that 12-month period.
The proposed issue of Tranche 2 Placement Shares does not fall within any of the specified exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
This Resolution seeks the required Shareholder approval to the proposed issue of Tranche 2 Placement Shares for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

Shareholders should note that the Company may have capacity to do so under Listing Rule 7.1 if some or all of Resolution 1 to Resolution 6 are passed.
Recommendation
The Board believes that the approval of the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares is beneficial for the Company as it allows the Company to retain the flexibility to issue further Equity Securities representing up to 25% of the Company’s share capital under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval. Accordingly, the Board recommends Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 7.
The Chair intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of Resolution 7.
Resolution 8:
Approval to issue Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Strata Investment Holdings Plc (Strata Investment) (Strata Investment Tranche 2 Placement Shares)
“That, for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11 and for all other purposes, approval is given for the Company to issue 21,666,667 Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Strata Investment Holdings Plc (or its nominee), on the terms and conditions set out in the Explanatory Memorandum.”
Background
As noted above in this Notice, it is proposed that Strata Investment participates in the Tranche 2 Placement.
Shareholder approval is being sought under Listing Rule 10.11 to the issue to Strata Investment (or its nominee) of 21,666,667 Tranche 2 Placement Shares at an issue price of $0.15 per Tranche 2 Placement Share to raise $3,250,000 (before costs) ( Strata Investment Tranche 2 Placement Shares ).
29
Reason for approval
Listing Rule 10.11 provides that, unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed entity must not issue or agree to issue Equity Securities to any of the following persons without the approval of Shareholders:
-
(a) a related party;
-
(b) a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the entity;
-
(c) a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement a substantial (10%+) holder in the entity and who has nominated a Director to the board of the entity; or
-
(d) an Associate of any person referred to in paragraphs (a) to (c) above.
As at the date of this Notice, Strata Investment has voting power of 85,327,600 Shares of the 575,837,245 Shares on issue, representing approximately 14.82% of the Company’s issued Shares following the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares. Strata Investment has also nominated Michael McNeilly to the Board. As such, Strata Investment falls within the category referred to in paragraph (c) above.
As none of the exceptions under Listing Rule 10.12 are available to the Company in respect of the proposed issue of Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Strata Investment (or its nominee), the Company seeks approval for the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Strata Investment (or its nominee) under Listing Rule 10.11.
Information for Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.13
The following information is required to be provided to Shareholders for the purposes of obtaining Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.11:
-
(a) The Strata Investment Tranche 2 Placement Shares are to be issued to Strata Investment (or its nominee).
-
(b) Strata Investment falls within the category referred to in Listing Rule 10.11.3 as it is a substantial holder of the Company, holding in excess of 10% of the Company’s issued Shares and has appointed a Director, Michael McNeilly, to the Board.

-
(d) The Company proposes to issue the Strata Investment Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Strata Investment as soon as possible following the Meeting but, in any event, within three months (or such later date permitted by ASX) from the date of the Meeting.

-
(f) The proceeds from the issue of the Strata Investment Tranche 2 Placement Shares will be used for the purposes set out above regarding the Two-Tranche Placement.
-
(g) A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.
Effect of Shareholder approval
The proposed issue of part of the Strata Investment Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Strata Investment is conditional on receiving approval from Shareholders.
If Resolution 8 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the proposed issue of the Strata Investment Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Strata Investment (or its nominee) and raise additional funds. Further, approval from Shareholders will not be required under Listing Rule 7.1 (pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 14), and the issue of Strata Investment Tranche 2 Placement Shares to
30
Strata Investment will not count towards the Company’s capacity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolution 8 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the proposed issue of Strata Investment Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Strata Investment (or its nominee) and will not raise those additional funds.
Resolution 9 and Resolution 10
Director participation in the Two-Tranche Placement
Background
As noted above, Resolution 9 and Resolution 10 seek approval to issue the Director Placement Shares to Messrs Holland and McNeilly, or their respective nominees.
Resolution 9 and Resolution 10 are not dependent on one another.
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act regulates the provision of “financial benefits” to “related parties” by a public company. Chapter 2E prohibits a public company from giving a financial benefit to a related party of the public company unless either the giving of the financial benefit falls within one of the nominated exceptions to the provisions or prior shareholder approval is obtained to the giving of the financial benefit.
A “related party” is widely defined under the Corporations Act, and includes the directors of the company and their immediate family. As such, Messrs Holland and McNeilly (or their nominees), as directors of the Company, are related parties of the Company for the purposes of Section 208 of the Corporations Act.
A “financial benefit” is construed widely and in determining whether a financial benefit is being given, Section 229 of the Corporations Act requires that any consideration that is given is disregarded, even if the consideration is adequate. It is necessary to look at the economic and commercial substance and the effect of the transaction in determining the financial benefit. Section 229 of the Corporations Act includes as an example of a financial benefit, the issuing of securities or the granting of an option to a related party.
The proposed issue of the Director Placement Shares to Messrs Holland and McNeilly (or their nominees) under Resolution 9 and Resolution 10 constitutes the provision of a financial benefit to a related party.
One of the nominated exceptions to the requirement to obtain shareholder approval under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is where the provision of the financial benefit is on terms that would be reasonable in the circumstances if the Company and the related party were dealing at arm’s length (or on terms less favourable than arm’s length).
Given Messrs Holland and McNeilly (or their nominees) will be participating in the Two-Tranche Placement on the same arm’s length terms as the parties who are not related parties of the Company, the Board is of the view that the issue of the Director Placement Shares, pursuant to Resolution 9 and Resolution 10 respectively, constitutes the provision of a financial benefit on arm’s length terms, and accordingly that Shareholder approval under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required.
Reason for approval
Listing Rule 10.11 provides that, unless a specified exception applies, a company must not issue or agree to issue securities to any of the following, without the approval of ordinary shareholders:
- (a) a related party;
31
-
(b) a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the entity;
-
(c) a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement a substantial (10%+) holder in the entity and who has nominated a director to the board of the entity;
-
(d) an Associate of any person referred to in paragraphs (a) to (c) above; or
-
(e) a person whose relationship with the entity, or a person referred to paragraphs (a) to (d) above is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by Shareholders.
A “related party”, for the purposes of the Listing Rules, has the meaning given to it in the Corporations Act, and includes the directors of a company and members of the directors’ immediate families.
As such, Shareholder approval is sought under Listing Rule 10.11 as Resolution 9 to Resolution 10 propose the issue of securities to Messrs Holland and McNeilly (or their nominees) who are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.
As Shareholder approval under Resolution 9 and Resolution 10 is being sought under Listing Rule 10.11, approval is not also required under Listing Rule 7.1.
Information for Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.13
Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 9 and Resolution 10:
-
(a) The Director Placement Shares will be issued to Messrs Holland and McNeilly (or their respective nominees).
-
(b) Messrs Holland and McNeilly are Directors of the Company and are, as such, persons who fall within Listing Rule 10.11.1.
-
(c) The maximum number of Director Placement Shares to be issued are:
-
(i) 833,333 Shares to be issued to Mr Martin Holland (or his nominee); and
-
(ii) 400,000 Shares to be issued to Mr Michael McNeilly (or his nominee),
together, 1,233,333 Shares.
-
(d) The Director Placement Shares are fully paid ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares and rank equally in all respects with the existing Shares.
-
(e) The Company anticipates that the Director Placement Shares will be issued shortly after the Meeting and in any event not later than one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules).
-
(f) The issue price will be $0.15 per Director Placement Share, being the same issue price as the Shares under the Two-Tranche Placement.
-
(g) The proceeds from the issue of the Director Placement Shares will be used for the same purposes as under the Two-Tranche Placement, as set out above.
-
(h)
-
The Director Placement Shares will not be issued under an agreement.
-
(i) A voting exclusion statement for Resolution 9 and Resolution 10 is included in the Notice of Meeting preceding this Explanatory Statement.
32
Effect of Shareholder Approval
If Resolution 9 and Resolution 10 are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Director Placement Shares.
If Resolution 9 and/or Resolution 10 are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Director Placement Shares until it has the capacity to do so under Listing Rule 7.1. Shareholders should note that the Company may have capacity to do so under Listing Rule 7.1 if some or all of Resolutions 1 to 8 are passed.
Resolution 9 and Resolution 10 are not dependent on one another.
Board Recommendation
The Board, other than Mr Martin Holland who has a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 9, recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 9.
The Board, other than Mr Michael McNeilly who has a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 10, recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 10.
Resolution 11
Approval of adoption of Cobre Limited Rights Plan (Plan)
“ That, for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b) and for all other purposes, approval is given for the Company to adopt an employee incentive scheme titled “Cobre Limited Rights Plan” (the Plan ) and for the issue of 56,000,000 performance rights ( Performance Rights ) under the Plan and any other equity securities that result from the exercising of Performance Rights under the Plan, on the terms and conditions set out in the Explanatory Memorandum. ”
Background
Shareholder approval is being sought for the approval of the adoption of a new Cobre Limited Rights Plan titled “Cobre Limited Rights Plan ” (the Plan ) and for the issue of Equity Securities under the Plan for the purposes of 7.2 Exception 13(b) and for all other purposes. A summary of the proposed key terms of the Plan is set out in Annexure A .
The Board recognises that a key component of remuneration provided to senior employees and executives are long-term incentives and that these long-term incentives ensure employees have part of their remuneration aligned with Shareholder success. The Board therefore proposes to adopt the Plan to facilitate provision of long-term incentives to senior employees and executives.
Senior executive remuneration in the Company is determined by the non-executive directors of the Company, having consideration of relevant market practices and the circumstances of the Company on an annual basis. It is the view of the non-executive directors of the Company that it is in the interests of shareholders for selected executives (the Participants ) to receive part of their total remuneration package ( TRP ) in the form of at-risk securities that will vest based on performance against indicators that are linked to shareholder benefit ( Vesting Conditions ).
The Plan is therefore designed to form a significant component of variable remuneration and to create alignment between shareholder benefit and the remuneration of Participants. If approved, grants under the Plan will facilitate the Company providing appropriate, competitive and performance-linked remuneration to the executives of the Company. The non-executive members of the Board seek to ensure that grants to executives are made at a level that will appropriately position their TRPs in the market, in accordance with the Company’s remuneration policies. The Board regularly reviews market positioning, the elements and mix of remuneration for executives to ensure remuneration remains reasonable, within the range of market practices, and is appropriate to the circumstances of the Company.
33
As at the date of this Notice, no securities have been issued under the Plan. The Company proposes to issue 35,000,000 Performance Rights to the Directors pursuant to Resolution 12 to Resolution 15 and the remaining 21,000,000 Performance Rights are to be issued to Participants under the Plan.
Reason for approval
Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not (subject to specified exceptions), without the approval of shareholders, issue or agree to issue during any 12-month period any Equity Securities, or other securities with rights to convert to equity (such as an option or Performance Right), if the number of those securities exceeds 15% of the number of ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12-month period.
Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13 provides an exception to Listing Rule 7.1. The effect of Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13 is that any issues of securities under the Plan are treated as having been made with the approval of shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1. Approval under Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13 lasts for a period of three years.
Information for Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13
The following information is required to be provided to Shareholders for the purposes of obtaining Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13:
-
(a) a summary of the proposed terms of the Plan is set out at Annexure A .
-
(b) no Equity Securities have yet been issued under the Plan. 35,000,000 Performance Rights are intended to be issued to the Directors pursuant to Resolution 12 to Resolution 15. 20,000,000 Performance Rights are intended to be issued to Adam Wooldridge in his role as Chief Executive Officer of the Company. 500,000 Performance Rights are intended to be issued to Justin Clyne in his role as company secretary of the Company. 500,000 Performance Rights are intended to be issued Phil Mitchell in his role as incoming board adviser to the Company.
-
(c) the maximum number of Equity Securities proposed to be issued under the Plan following Shareholder approval is 56,000,000 Performance Rights.
-
(d) The Performance Rights will be granted pursuant to invitation letters which will incorporate the material terms set out in Annexure A and otherwise contain standard representations and warranties for an agreement of this kind.
-
(e) a voting exclusion statement is included in this Notice.
Effect of Shareholder approval
If Resolution 11 is passed, then the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities under the Plan without seeking prior Shareholder approval to eligible Participants who are not related parties and any issue of Equity Securities under the Plan over the 3 years after the date of the Meeting (up to the maximum number set out below) will not use up a portion of the Company’s placement capacity when that issue is made. This means that the Company will preserve its flexibility to issue Equity Securities without seeking Shareholder approval if and when it grants awards pursuant to the Plan. Any proposed issue of Equity Securities to a Director or related parties, or any of their Associates, under the Plan will require prior Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14.
If Resolution 11 is not passed, then the issue of any Equity Securities under the Plan would not be exempt from Listing Rule 7.1 and the Company will have to rely on issuing the Equity Securities, including the Performance Rights, under its existing placement capacity at the relevant time the issue is made (unless the Equity Securities are otherwise approved by Shareholders or another exemption from Listing Rule 7.1 is applicable to such issue of Equity Securities). The issue of Equity Securities under the Plan in those circumstances would therefore reduce the number of Equity Securities that the Company is able to issue using its placement capacity without seeking Shareholder approval.
34
Recommendation
Noting that each Director has a personal interest in their own remuneration as a result of the adoption of and entitlement to participate in the Plan, the Directors do not make a recommendation in relation to Resolution 11.
The Chair intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of Resolution 11.
Resolution 12 to Resolution 15:
Approval of issue of Performance Rights to Directors
Background
The Company proposes to issue a total of up to 35,000,000 Performance Rights to Directors (or their nominees) as follows ( Performance Rights ):
-
(a) Mr Martin Holland will be issued 30,000,000 Performance Rights (subject to Shareholder approval sought pursuant to Resolution 12);
-
(b) Mr Michael McNeilly will be issued 3,000,000 Performance Rights (subject to Shareholder approval sought pursuant to Resolution 13);
-
(c) Mr Andrew Sissian will be issued 1,000,000 Performance Rights (subject to Shareholder approval sought pursuant to Resolution 14); and
-
(d) Mr Michael Addison will be issued 1,000,000 Performance Rights (subject to Shareholder approval sought pursuant to Resolution 15).
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act
For a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a Related Party of the public company, the public company or entity must:
-
(a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and
-
(b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,
unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.
For the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, each of the directors is a Related Party of the Company and the proposed issue of Performance Rights is a financial benefit.
The exemption in section 211 of the Corporations Act applies where the financial benefit is remuneration to a Related Party as an officer or employee of the public company, and to give the remuneration would be reasonable given the circumstances of the public company, and the Related Party’s circumstances (including the responsibilities involved in the office or employment). The directors (excluding Martin Holland in respect of Resolution 12, excluding Michael McNeilly in respect of Resolution 13, excluding Andrew Sissian in respect of Resolution 14 and excluding Michael Addison in respect of Resolution 15) considers that the issue of the Performance Rights is a benefit that constitutes reasonable remuneration for the purposes of section 211 of the Corporations Act. On this basis, Shareholder approval is not being sought for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, but is being sought for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.
Listing Rule 10.11
Listing Rule 10.11 relevantly provides that, unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed company must not issue or agree to issue equity securities to a Related Party without the approval of its shareholders.
35
The issue of the Performance Rights falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1, as each of the directors is a Related Party of the Company and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of the Company’s Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11. Resolution 12 to Resolution 15 each seek Shareholder approval to issue Performance Rights for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.
Information required by Listing Rule 10.13 and ASX Guidance Note 19
Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 10.13 and ASX Guidance Note 19, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 12 to Resolution 15:
-
(a) The Performance Rights will be granted to the Directors (or their nominees) as described above.
-
(b) The proposed grant of Performance Rights to Directors falls within the category set out in Listing Rule 10.11.1, as each director is a Related Party of the Company by virtue of being a Director.
-
(c) The number of Performance Rights to be issued to each Director is as set out in aggregate above and as set out in the table below:
| Director | Tranche 1 | Tranche 2 | Tranche 3 | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Martin Holland | 12,000,000 | 6,000,000 | 3,000,000 – 12,000,000 | 21,000,000 – 30,000,000 |
| Michael McNeilly | 1,200,000 | 600,000 | 300,000 – 1,200,000 | 2,100,000 – 3,000,000 |
| Andrew Sissian | 400,000 | 200,000 | 100,000 – 400,000 | 700,000 – 1,000,000 |
| Michael Addison | 400,000 | 200,000 | 100,000 – 400,000 | 700,000 – 1,000,000 |
| Total | 14,000,000 | 11,000,000 | 3,500,000 – 14,000,000 | 24,500,000 – 35,000,000 |
-
(d) The Performance Rights are being issued pursuant to the Plan the subject of Resolution 11. The material terms of the Performance Rights are set out in Annexure A .
-
(e) The Performance Rights will all be issued no later than one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules).
-
(f) The purpose of the issue of the Performance Rights is to provide a performance linked incentive component in the remuneration package to the directors to motivate and reward their performance as directors and to provide cost effective remuneration to the directors, enabling the Company to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on its operations than it would if alternative cash forms of remuneration were given to the directors.
-
(g) The total remuneration package for each director for the current financial year is set out below:
| Director | Fees / salary | Variable remuneration |
Performance Rights2 | Total potential remuneration package3 |

2. The deemed value of each Performance Right is $0.1875, being the 15-day VWAP as at Tuesday, 17 February 2026, with a deemed total aggregate value of Performance Rights being issued to the Directors of $6,562,500. These deemed valuations have only been provided for the purpose of providing information on the proposed potential remuneration package. The actual valuation of each Performance Right is contingent on performance and the achievement of the Vesting Conditions.
3. The total potential remuneration package includes the deemed value of the Performance Rights. The exercisability of the Performance Rights are contingent upon achievement of the Vesting Conditions set out in Annexure A.
36
-
(h) The Performance Rights are being granted pursuant to invitation letters which incorporate the material terms of the Plan set out in Annexure A and otherwise contain standard representations and warranties for an agreement of this kind.
-
(i) A voting exclusion statement for each of Resolution 12 to Resolution 15 is included in this Notice.
Effect of Shareholder approval
If Resolution 12 to Resolution 15 are passed:
-
the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of all of the Performance Rights within one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver of modification of the Listing Rules); and
-
a separate approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 will not be required for the grant of the Performance Rights (because approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11), and the grant of the Performance Rights will not use up any of the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolution 12 to Resolution 15 are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the grant of all of the Performance Rights.
Resolution 12 to Resolution 15 are not dependent on each other.
