Explanatory Memorandum

1. Introduction

This Explanatory Memorandum is provided to Shareholders of Cosmo Metals Limited ACN 653 132 828 (the Company or Cosmo ) to explain the Resolutions to be put to Shareholders at the General Meeting to be held at Level 2, 22 Mount Street, Perth WA 6000 on 22 September 2025 commencing at10.00am AWST.

The Directors recommend Shareholders read the accompanying Notice of Meeting and this Explanatory Memorandum in full before making any decision in relation to the resolutions.

Subject to the abstentions noted below, the Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of all Resolutions. The Chair of the Meeting intends to vote all available undirected proxies in favour of each resolution.

Terms used in this Explanatory Memorandum are defined in Section 9.

2. Resolution 1: Ratification of Prior Issue of Media Consultant Shares

2.1 Background

In April 2025, the Company entered into an agreement with Mr Andrew Scott for the provision of strategic marketing and media advisory services ( Media Agreement ).

Pursuant to the terms of the Media Agreement, the Company was to pay Mr Scott scrip for a portion of his services, with the first six (6) months to be paid in shares and issued in advance ( Service Fee ). The Media Agreement is otherwise on terms and conditions considered standard for an agreement of its nature.

On 22 April 2025, the Company issued 1,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares ( Media Consultant Shares ) at a deemed issue price of $0.015 per Share, to Mr Scott to satisfy the Service Fee in accordance with the terms of the Media Agreement .

The Media Consultant Shares were issued using the Company’s placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1. The issue of the Media Consultant Shares did not breach Listing Rule 7.1 at the date of issue.

2.2 Listing Rule 7.1

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 12 month period.

The issue 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 the issue.

2.3 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. Listing Rule 7.4 also provides that an issue made in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1 can be approved subsequently under Listing Rule 7.4.

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 Media Consultant Shares.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Media Consultant Shares 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 issue of the Media Consultant Shares.

3.3 Listing Rule 7.4

An overview of Listing Rule 7.4 is set out in Section 2.3 above.

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 Global Ore Consultant Securities.

Resolutions 2(a) and 2(b) seek Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Global Ore Consultant Securities.

Resolution 2(a)

If Resolution 2(a) is passed, the Global Ore Consultant Shares 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 issue of the Global Ore Consultant Shares.

The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolutions 3 and 4 so that the Company’s issuing capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A is restored in respect of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares issued to retain the flexibility to issue further securities representing up to 25% of the Company’s share capital without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

5. Resolution 5: Approval of Issue of Tranche 2 Placement Shares

5.1 Background

As set out in Section 4.1 above, the Company is undertaking a two-tranche Placement with the second tranche of up to 36,827,204 fully paid ordinary shares ( Tranche 2 Placement Shares ) proposed to be issued to institutional and sophisticated investors who are clients of Discovery Capital Partners Pty Ltd and Cumulus Wealth Pty Ltd ( Proposed Placement Participants ) subject to shareholder approval.

In addition to the above, the following related persons have applied to participate in the second tranche of the Placement as follows:

  • (a) Cosmo’s Managing Director, Ian Prentice for A$35,000 (up to 1,944,445 new shares), the subject of Resolution 6; and

Explanatory Memorandum

(b) substantial (10+) shareholder Great Boulder Resources Ltd for A$280,000 (up to 15,555,556 new shares), the subject of Resolution 7.

Resolution 5 is an ordinary resolution to approve the issue of up to 36,827,204 Tranche 2 Placement Shares to the Proposed Placement Participants for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.1.

5.2 Listing Rule 7.1

An overview of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 2.2 above.

The issue 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 the issue.

5.3

Technical Information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 5 is passed, the Tranche 2 Placement Shares 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 issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares. The Company will also raise up to approximately $662,890 before costs from the issue.

If Resolution 5 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares under this Resolution 5, and consequently will not be able to raise approximately $662,890 before costs.

5.4

Technical Information required by Listing Rule 7.3

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 5:

Other than those disclosed below none of the Placement Participants is a related party of the Company or a Material Investor.

Cumulus Wealth Pty Ltd is a substantial holder of the Company and will participate in Tranche 2 of the Placement. Cumulus Wealth Pty Ltd will be issued 5,902,751 Tranche 2 Placement Shares and is expected to change their holding to 17.61%.

The Company is also seeking Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11 for the issue of up to 1,944,445 new shares to Cosmo’s Managing Director, Ian Prentice, the subject of Resolution 6 and up to 15,555,556 new shares to substantial (10+) shareholder Great Boulder Resources Ltd, the subject of Resolution 7. See Resolutions 6 and 7 for more information.

(b) The number and class of securities

The Company proposes to issue up to 36,827,204 Tranche 2 Placement Shares, which are fully paid ordinary shares in the Company which will, from the time of issue, rank equally with all existing Shares on issue. The Company will apply to ASX for official quotation of the Tranche 2 Placement Shares.

(h) Voting exclusion

A voting exclusion statement applies to this Resolution and is included in the Notice preceding this Explanatory Memorandum.

5.5 Directors’ recommendation

The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5, as it will enable the Company to issue the Tranche 2 Placement Shares to the Proposed Placement Participants to raise up to approximately $662,890 before costs.

6. Resolution 6: Approval for Issue of Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Managing Director – Ian Prentice

6.1 Background

Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.11 for the issue of up to 1,944,445 Tranche 2 Placement Shares pursuant to the Placement to Mr Ian Prentice (or his nominee), the Managing Director of the Company. See Sections 4 and 5 for further information on the Placement.

6.2 Listing Rule 10.11

Listing Rule 10.11 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;

  • a person who is, or was at any time in the six months prior to the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the company;

  • a person who is, or was at any time in the six months prior to the issue or agreement, a substantial (10%+) holder in the company and who has nominated a director to the board of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them the right or expectation to do so;

  • an associate of a person referred to in paragraphs (a) to (c) above; or

  • a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in a Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX's opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders,

unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.

Cosmo Metals Limited – Notice of General Meeting and Explanatory Memorandum

Page 14

Explanatory Memorandum

Mr Prentice is a Related Party of the Company by virtue of being a Director. The issue of Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Mr Prentice will fall within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. The issue therefore requires Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11.

Resolution 6 seeks the required Shareholder approval for the issue of Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Mr Prentice under and for the purpose of Listing Rule 10.11.

Resolution 6 is an ordinary resolution.

6.3

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Section 208 of the Corporations Act provides that 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:

  • obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and

  • 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.

The issue of Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Mr Prentice (or his nominee), as contemplated by Resolution 6, will constitute the giving a financial benefit for the purposes of the Corporations Act and Mr Prentice is a Related Party of the Company by virtue of being a Director.

Section 210 of the Corporations Act provides that shareholder approval is not required to give a financial benefit in circumstances where the benefit is on arm’s length. As the issue price is the same for other unrelated participants in the Placement, the share issue is considered to be reasonable in the circumstances.

Accordingly, the Board (other than Mr Prentice) has determined not to seek Shareholder approval under section 208 of the Corporations Act for the proposed issue of Tranche 2 Placement Shares, in reliance on section 210 of the Corporations Act.

6.4

Technical Information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 6 is passed, the Company will issue up to 1,944,445 Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Mr Prentice and raise approximately $35,000 before costs.

If Resolution 6 is not passed, the Company will not be able to issue up to 1,944,445 Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Mr Prentice and consequently the Company will not potentially raise up to $35,000.

6.5 Information required by Listing Rule 10.13

The following information is provided to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 6 for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.13:

(a) Name of the person

Resolution 6 contemplates the issue of Tranche 2 Placement Shares to Ian Prentice (or his nominee).

(b) Which category in Listing Rules 10.11 the person falls within and why

Ian Prentice is a Director of the Company and therefore falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1.

Any nominee who is to receive Tranche 2 Placement Shares under Resolution 6 may constitute an ‘associate’ for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.4.

The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 7 to permit the issue of the relevant Tranche 2 Placement Shares, on the same basis as the non-related Placement participants.

8. Resolution 8: Approval for Issue of Lead Manager Options

8.1 Background

As set out in Section 4.1 above, the Company announced on 31 July 2025 that it had received binding commitments to undertake a two-tranche placement to raise approximately $2.0 million (before issue costs) (being the Placement).

The Company engaged Discovery Capital Partners Pty Ltd ( Discovery ) and Cumulus Wealth Pty Ltd ( Cumulus ) to act as the Joint Lead Managers (the Joint Lead Managers ) and Book Runners to the Placement under a lead manager mandate ( JLM Mandate ).

Under the terms of the JLM Mandate, the Company has agreed to issue, subject to obtaining shareholder approval, up to 6,000,000 Options (exercisable at $0.027, expiring three years from issue date) ( Lead Manager Options ) to the Joint Lead Managers (or their nominee/s) in part consideration for services provided in relation to the Placement, as follows:

An overview of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 2.2 above.

The proposed issue of up to 6,000,000 Lead Manager Options is subject to the Company obtaining Shareholder approval for the issue and therefore falls within Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 17.

In order for the issue to proceed, it requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, Resolution 8 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of up to 6,000,000 Lead Manager Options to the Lead Manager.

8.3 Technical Information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 8 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Lead Manager Options. In addition, the issue of the Lead Manager Options 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.

If Resolution 8 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Lead Manager Options and consequently the Company will not potentially raise up to $162,000 on any exercise of Lead Manager Options. Further, the Company may have to renegotiate terms of the JLM Mandate.

8. New issues

The Option Holder is not entitled to participate in any new issue to Shareholders of Securities in the Company unless it has exercised its Options before the record date for determining entitlements to the new issue of Securities and participate as a result of holding Shares.

9. Bonus issues

If the Company makes a bonus issue of Shares or other Securities to Shareholders (except an issue in lieu of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment) and a Share has not been issued in respect of the Option before the record date for determining entitlements to the issue, then the number of underlying Shares over which the Option is exercisable will be increased by the number of Shares which the Option Holder would have received if the Option Holder had exercised the Option before the record date for determining entitlements to the issue.

10. Reorganisation

If there is a reorganisation (including consolidation, sub-division, reduction or return) of the share capital of the Company, then the rights of the Option Holder (including the number of Options to which the Option Holder is entitled to and the Exercise Price) will be changed to the extent necessary to comply with the Listing Rules applying to a reorganisation of capital at the time of the reorganisation.

Any calculations or adjustments which are required to be made will be made by the Company's Board and will, in the absence of manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on the Company and the Option Holder.

The Company must, within a reasonable period, give to the Option Holder notice of any change to the Exercise Price of any Options held by the Option Holder or the number of Shares which the Option Holder is entitled to subscribe for on exercise of an Option.

11. Exercise of Options

To exercise Options, the Option Holder must give the Company or its Share Registry, at the same time:

  • (a) a written exercise notice (in the form approved by the board of the Company from time to time) specifying the number of Options being exercised and Shares to be issued;

  • (b) payment of the Exercise Price for the Shares, the subject of the exercise notice, by way of bank cheque or by other means of payment, approved by the Company; and

  • (c) any certificate for the Options.

The Option Holder may only exercise Options in multiples of 10,000 Options unless the Option Holder exercises all Options held by the Option Holder.

Options will be deemed to have been exercised on the date the exercise notice and Exercise Price are received by the Company.

If the Option Holder exercises less than the total number of Options registered in the Option Holder's name:

  • (d) the Option Holder must surrender their Option certificate (if any); and

  • (e) the Company must cancel the Option certificate (if any) and issue the Option Holder a new Option certificate or Holding Statement stating the remaining number of Options held by the Option Holder.
