2

  • a member who is entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint two proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If the member appoints two proxies and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the member’s votes, then in accordance with section 249X(3) of the Corporations Act, each proxy may exercise one-half of the votes.

Please note that the Corporations Act requires that:

3.2

Proxy vote if appointment specifies way to vote

Section 250BB(1) of the Corporations Act provides that an appointment of a proxy may specify the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution and, if it does:

  • (a) the proxy need not vote on a show of hands, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed); and

  • (b) if the proxy has two or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on the resolution – the proxy must not vote on a show of hands; and

  • (c) if the proxy is the chair of the meeting at which the resolution is voted on – the proxy must vote on a poll, and must vote that way (i.e. as directed); and

  • (d) if the proxy is not the chair – the proxy need not vote on the poll, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed).

  • 3.3

Transfer of non-chair proxy to chair in certain circumstances

Section 250BC of the Corporations Act provides that if:

  • (a) an appointment of a proxy specifies the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution at a meeting of the Company's members; and

  • (b) the appointed proxy is not the chair of the meeting; and

  • (c) at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded on the resolution; and

3.4 Resolution connected with remuneration of Key Management Personnel

If the Chairperson is to act as your proxy (whether by appointment or by default) and you have not given directions on how to vote in the voting directions section of the Proxy Form for Resolution 1 or Resolution 3, the Proxy Form expressly directs and authorises the Chairperson to cast your votes “for” the relevant Resolution. This express authorisation is included because, without it, the Chairperson would be precluded from casting your votes

3

as Resolution 1 and Resolution 3 are connected with the remuneration of Key Management Personnel.

Subject to any voting prohibitions that may apply to the Chairperson in respect of Resolution 1 and Resolution 3 to restrict the Chairperson from voting undirected proxies, the Chairperson intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1 and Resolution 3.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether to pass the Resolutions.

This Explanatory Statement forms part of, and should be read together with, the Notice of Meeting. Capitalised terms in this Explanatory Statement are defined in the Glossary.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND REPORTS

In accordance with the Constitution and section 317 of the Corporations Act, the business of the Annual General Meeting will include receipt and consideration of the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2022 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. Shareholders may view the Company’s annual financial report online at: www.develop.com.au .

1. RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT

1.1 General

The Corporations Act requires that a resolution that the Remuneration Report be adopted must be put to the Shareholders at a listed company’s annual general meeting. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or 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 the financial year ending 30 June 2022.

The Chair of the meeting must allow a reasonable opportunity for 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 the vote. If required, the Spill Resolution must be put to vote at the second of those annual general meetings.

If more than 50% of Shareholders vote 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 who were in office when the Directors' report (as included in the Company’s annual financial report for the previous 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 is approved will be the Directors of the Company.

9

1.3 Previous Voting Results

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

1.4

Proxy Voting Restrictions

Shareholders appointing a proxy for this Resolution should note the following:

Proxy Directions Given No Directions Given
Key Management Personnel1 Vote as directed Unable to vote3
Chairperson2 Vote as directed Able to vote at discretion of
Proxy4
Other Vote as directed Able to vote at discretion of Proxy

Notes :

  • 1 Refers to Key Management Personnel (other than the Chairperson) whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report, or a Closely Related Party of such a member.

  • 2 Refers to the Chairperson (where he/she is also a member of the Key Management Personnel whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report), or a Closely Related Party of such a member).

  • 3 Undirected proxies granted to these persons will not be voted and will not be counted in calculating the required majority if a poll is called on this Resolution.

  • 4 The Proxy Form notes it is the Chairperson’s intention to vote all undirected proxies in favour of all Resolutions.

2. RESOLUTION 2 – ELECTION OF MICHELLE WOOLHOUSE AS A DIRECTOR

2.1

General

Rule 6.1(c) of the Constitution permits the Directors to appoint at any time a person to be a Director either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing Directors, provided that the total number of Directors does not exceed the maximum number specified by the Constitution.

Pursuant to rule 6.2(a) of the Constitution and ASX Listing Rule 14.4, any Director so appointed under rule 6.1(c) of the Constitution, who is not a managing director, must retire from office at the next annual general meeting following their appointment and is then eligible for election by Shareholders.

ASX Listing Rule 14.5 also provides that a listed entity that has directors must hold an election of directors at each annual general meeting.

Michelle Woolhouse, having been appointed by the other Directors effective 1 December 2021, will retire and being eligible, seeks election by Shareholders pursuant to Resolution 2.

10

Michelle Woolhouse has advised the Company that she intends to resign as a Director, as she is resuming her career in the banking sector. Ms Woolhouse has advised it is her intention to remain a Director for up to 6 months, thereby enabling the Company to retain her services during a period of significant Company activity and while the Company searches for a replacement.

Resolution 2 is an ordinary resolution. The Chairperson intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of Resolution 2.

2.2 Background and Experience

Ms Woolhouse has spent 25 years in financial markets, specialising in the natural resources sector. During this time, she has established an extensive skillset in risk and financial analysis and managed a substantial portfolio of ASX-listed and international resources companies across a range of commodities.

Ms Woolhouse has significant experience in project and corporate finance in the mining and metals sector, including evaluation, debt structuring, technical considerations and sustainability.

She has held a range of senior positions with the Commonwealth Bank, including previous roles as Executive Director, head of Perth Resources and Energy client coverage, and head of WA Natural Resources project finance for the Institutional Banking and Markets division.

Ms Woolhouse is a Certified Practicing Accountant and holds a Bachelor of Business (Accounting) from Edith Cowan University. She is also a Graduate of the Australian Institute of Company Directors.

Ms Woolhouse’s significant experience in funding resources projects, mining companies and the mining services sector are invaluable to the Company as it pursues its multi-pronged growth strategy.

2.3

Independence

The Board has considered Ms Woolhouse's independence and considers that she is and, if elected, will be, an independent Director. Ms Woolhouse was appointed as an independent Non-executive Director on 1 December 2021 and since that appointment, the Directors are not aware of anything which affects that independence. As of 31 October 2022, Ms Woolhouse will become a fulltime employee of a company which does not currently have a commercial relationship with the Company.

2.4

Recommendation

The Directors (except for Ms Woolhouse) support the election of Ms Woolhouse and recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2, notwithstanding Ms Woolhouse has given notice of her resignation from the Company. The Directors believe it is to the Company’s advantage to retain Ms Woolhouse’s services for up to 6 months post her notice of resignation to allow for an orderly transition.

3. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL TO INCREASE DIRECTORS' FEE POOL

3.1 General

Clause 6.5(a) of the Constitution provides that the aggregate remuneration of all Nonexecutive Directors in any financial year must not exceed the amount fixed by the Company in general meeting ( Directors' Fee Pool ). ASX Listing Rule 10.17 provides that an entity

11

must not increase the total aggregate amount of directors' fees payable to all of its Nonexecutive Directors without the approval of the holders of its ordinary securities.

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval, for the purposes of clause 6.5(a) of the Constitution, ASX Listing Rule 10.17 and for all other purposes, for the Company to be authorised to increase the maximum aggregate amount of fees available to be paid to Nonexecutive Directors by $600,000, from $400,000 per annum to $1 million per annum.

If Resolution 3 is passed, the maximum aggregate amount of fees available to be paid to Non-executive Directors of the Company will increase by $600,000, from $400,000 per annum to $1 million per annum. If Resolution 3 is not passed, the maximum aggregate amount of fees that may be paid to Non-executive Directors of the Company will remain at $400,000 per annum. This may inhibit the ability of the Company to remunerate, attract and retain appropriately skilled Non-executive Directors.

3.2 Rationale for the increase

The maximum aggregate fees payable to Non-executive Directors was last increased on 23 July 2012.

The Board considers that it is reasonable and appropriate at this time to seek an increase in the remuneration pool for Non-executive Directors for the following reasons:

  • (i) both the recent and expected growth of the Company as outlined to shareholders in the Develop Strategy Day presentation (ASX: DVP 6 September 2022) and the increased responsibilities for Non-executive Directors arising as a result of that growth;

  • (ii) Non-executive Directors’ fees will need to be increased to retain Directors (noting the need for orderly succession planning);

  • (iii) to attract new Non-executive Directors of a calibre required (including to replace Michelle Woolhouse) to effectively guide and monitor the business of the Company;

  • (iv) the Directors may from time to time appoint additional Non-executive Directors to ensure the Board has the appropriate skills and experience; and

  • (v) to remunerate Non-executive Directors appropriately for the expectations placed upon them both by the Company and the regulatory environment in which it operates.

Currently, the Company pays a total of $280,000 (plus superannuation) in fees to the Nonexecutive Directors. Further details of the total fees paid to the Non-executive Directors during the financial year ended 30 June 2022 are set out in the Remuneration Report.

This proposed level of permitted fees does not mean that the Company must pay the entire amount approved as fees in each year; indeed, the actual level of remuneration which is to be paid to Non-executive Directors will be determined after the Company has obtained independent remuneration advice in order to ensure the Non-executive Director remuneration is appropriately benchmarked to industry.

3.3

Additional information required by Listing Rule 10.17

In the past three years, the Company has issued Equity Securities to Non-executive Directors (past and present), or their nominees, under and for the purposes of Listing Rules 10.11 and 10.14 as follows:

3.4 Board recommendation

Given the interest of the Non-executive Directors in this Resolution, the Non-executive Directors make no recommendation to Shareholders regarding this Resolution. Managing Director, Mr Bill Beament, recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.

The Chairperson of the Meeting intends to vote all available proxies in favour of Resolution 3.

Any undirected proxies that default to the Chairman of the Meeting will be voted according to the instructions set out in this Proxy Form, including where the Resolutions are connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of KMP.

VOTES ON ITEMS OF BUSINESS – PROXY APPOINTMENT

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

APPOINTMENT OF A SECOND PROXY

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

To appoint a second proxy you must:

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

  • (b) return both forms together.
