Notice of General Meeting

1. Introduction

This Explanatory Memorandum is provided to shareholders Falcon Metals Limited ACN 651 893 097 ( the Company ) to explain the resolutions to be put to Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting to be held at Suite 6, Level 6, 350 Collins Street, Melbourne VIC 3000 on 28 November 2023 at 2.00 PM (AEDT).

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 10.

2. Financial Statements and Reports

In accordance with the Constitution, 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 2023 together with the declaration of the Directors, the Directors’ report, the Remuneration Report, and the auditor’s report.

There is no requirement for shareholders to approve these reports. However, time will be allowed during the annual general meeting for consideration by shareholders of the financial statements and the associated directors’ and auditors’ reports.

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.falconmetals.com.au.

The Company’s Annual Report is placed before the Shareholders for discussion.

No voting is required for this item.

3. Resolution 1: Adoption of Remuneration Report

3.1 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 of the Company. The remuneration report is part of the directors’ report contained in the annual financial report of the company for a financial period.

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.

3.2 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.

FALCON METALS LIMITED

Page 9 of 33

Notice of General Meeting

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.

3.3 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.

4. Resolution 2: Re-election of Director – Katina Law

4.1 General

Clause 7.6 (which mirrors ASX Listing Rule 14.4) of the Company’s Constitution provides that the Directors may at any time appoint any person to be a director either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing Directors but only where the total number of Directors does not at any time exceed the maximum number specified in the Constitution.

Pursuant to clause 14.4 of the Constitution and ASX Listing Rule 14.4, any Director so appointed holds office only until the next annual general meeting of the Company and is then eligible for re-election by Shareholders.

Ms Katina Law was appointed as a director on 1 October 2023. Consequently, Ms Law retires as a director at the Meeting and, being eligible, seeks approval to be elected as Director pursuant to Resolution 2.

If Resolution 2 is not carried out, Ms Law will no longer be a Director of the Company and a new director would have to be appointed.

4.2 Qualifications and other material directorships

Qualifications BCom, CPA, MBA Experience Ms Katina Law has over 30 years of experience in the mining industry and has held senior roles with major mining companies, as well as board roles with both ASX-listed explorers and non-government organisations. With a strong financial background, she has served as Chair of Finance and Audit committees and has a strong commitment to corporate governance.

Ms Law is a graduate from the Australian Institute of Company Directors and holds a Bachelor of Commerce from the University of Western Australia. She is also a Certified Practising Accountant and has an MBA from London Business School.

Ms Law currently serves as a Non-Executive Director of Yandal Resources (ASX: YRL), is a Board Member of Health Support Services, a co-founder and Director of IPS Management Consultants and as Chair of Dutjahn Sandalwood Oils Pty Ltd. Previously, she has held positions as Non-

Notice of General Meeting

Executive Chair of Ardea Resources (ASX: ARL) and Non-Executive Director of DGO Gold (ASX: DGO)

Other Directorships Yandal Resources Limited

Ms Law is considered to be an independent director.

4.3 Board recommendation

The Board supports the re-election of Ms Law as a Director of the Company and recommends (with Ms Law abstaining) that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

5. Resolution 3 - 6: Approval of Unlisted Options to Mark Bennett, Tim Markwell, Alex Dorsch and Katina Law

5.1 General

The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, to issue a total of 2,360,000 Options (Related Party Options) to Mark Bennett, Tim Markwell, Alex Dorsch and Katina Law (or their nominees) (Related Parties) on the terms and conditions set out below.

To ensure the Company retains its key people, the Company has determined that the best way to reward and incentivise its board, executives and employees is via the issue of options over ordinary shares which have an exercise price that requires the share price to increase by approximately 50% (from grant date) before the options crystallise any value to the recipient while conserving cash and ensuring Falcon offers competitive market based remuneration. This results in the alignment of shareholder and board and employee interests in maximising Falcon’s share price.

Resolutions 3 to 6 seek Shareholder approval to issue the Related Party Options to the Related Parties.

5.2 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act requires that 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.

The issue of Related Party Options constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mark Bennett, Tim Markwell, Alex Dorsch and Katina Law are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.

As the Related Party Options are proposed to be issued to all the Directors, the Directors are unable to form a quorum to consider whether one of the exceptions set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations act applies to the issue of the Options.

Accordingly, Shareholder approval for the issue of Related Party Options to the Related Parties is sought in accordance with Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

Notice of General Meeting

5.3 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:

  • 10.11.1 a related party;

  • 10.11. 2 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the company;

  • 10.11.3 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before 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 a right or expectation to do so;

  • 10.11. 4 an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3; or

  • 10.11. 5 a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in 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.

The issue of Related Party Options falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.

Resolutions 3 to 6 seek the required Shareholder approval for the issue of the Related Party Options under and for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.14.

5.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolutions 3 to 6 are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Related Party Options to the Related Parties within one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules). As approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Related Party Options (because approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11), the issue of the Related Party Options will not use up any of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.

If Resolutions 3 to 6 are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Related Party Options and the Company will have to develop an alternate plan to remunerate their directors in lieu of the grant of options.

5.5 Technical information required by Listing Rule 10.13 and section 219 of the Corporations Act

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 10.13 and section 219 of the Corporations Act, the following information is provided in relation to Resolutions 3 to 5:

  • (a) the Related Party Options will be issued to the following persons:

  • (1) Mark Bennett (or their nominee) pursuant to Resolution 3:

  • (f) the purpose of the issue of the Related Party Options is to provide a performance linked incentive component in the remuneration package for the Related Parties to align the interests of the Related Parties with those of Shareholders, to motivate and reward the performance of the Related Parties in their roles as Directors and to provide a cost effective way from the Company to remunerate the Related Parties, which will allow 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 Related Parties;

  • (g) the Related Party Options are unquoted Options. The Company has agreed to issue Related Party Options to the Related Parties for the following reasons:

  • (1) the Related Party Options are unquoted; therefore, the issue of the Related Party Options has no immediate dilutionary impact on Shareholders;

  • (2) the deferred taxation benefit which is available to the Related Parties in respect of an issue of Options is also beneficial to the Company as it means the Related Parties are not required to immediately sell the Related Party Options to fund a tax liability (as would be the case in an issue of Shares where the tax liability arises upon issue of the Shares) and will instead, continue to hold an interest in the Company; and

  • (3) it is not considered that there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company or benefits foregone by the Company in issuing the Related Party Options on the terms proposed;

(h) the number of Related Party Options to be issued to each of the Related Parties has been determined based upon a consideration of:

  • (1) current market standards and/or practices of other ASX listed companies of a similar size and stage of development to the Company;

  • (2) the remuneration of the Related Parties; and

  • (3) incentives to attract and retain the service of the Related Parties who have appropriate knowledge and expertise, while maintaining the Company’s cash reserves.

The Company does not consider that there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company or benefits foregone by the Company in issuing the Related Party Options upon the terms proposed;

(m) if the Related Party Options issued to the Related Parties are exercised, a total of 2,360,000 Shares would be issued. This will increase the number of Shares on issue from 177,000,000 (being the total number of Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice) to 179,360,000 (assuming that no Shares are issued and no convertible securities vest or are exercised) with the effect that the shareholding of existing Shareholders would be diluted by an aggregate of 1.33%, comprising 0.34% by Mr Bennett, 0.43% by Mr Markwell, 0.28% by Mr Dorsch, and 0.28% by Ms Law;

The market price for Shares during the term of the Related Party Options would normally determine whether the Related Party Options are exercised. If, at any time any of the Related Party Options are exercised and the Shares are trading on ASX at a price that is higher than the exercise price of the Related Party Options, there may be a perceived cost to the Company.

(o) each Director has a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolutions 3 to 6 on the basis that all of the Directors (or their nominees) are to be issued Related Party Options should Resolutions 3 to 6 be passed. For this reason, the Directors do not believe that it is appropriate to make a recommendation on Resolutions 3 to 6 of this Notice; and

(p) the Board is not aware of any other information that is reasonably required by Shareholders to allow them to decide whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass Resolutions 3 to 6.

6. Resolution 7: Approval of New Employee Securities Incentive Plan

6.1 General

On 1 October 2022, amendments to the Corporations Act commenced, simplifying the process for incentivising participants under employee share schemes ( ESS ). Division 1A was introduced into Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act, providing a new regime for the making of offers in connection with an ESS ( New Regime ). This regime replaces the relief previously afforded by ASIC Class Order 14/1000 (Class Order).

To ensure that the Company’s ESS complies with the New Regime, the Company will adopt, subject to Shareholder approval, a new ESS called the ‘Falcon Metals Ltd Employee Securities Incentive Plan’ ( New Plan ).

Resolution 7 seeks Shareholder approval for the adoption of the New Plan in accordance with Listing Rule 7.2 exception 13(b).

Under the New Plan, the Board may offer to eligible persons the opportunity to subscribe for such number of Equity Securities in the Company as the Board may decide and, on the terms, set out in the rules of the New Plan. A summary of the key terms of the New Plan is in Schedule 3. In addition, a copy of the New Plan is available for review by Shareholders at the registered office of the Company until the date of the Meeting. Shareholders are invited to contact the Company if they have any queries.

6.2 Key changes between the Class Order and New Regime

The following table summarises the key changes implemented by the New Regime. These changes are reflected in the New Plan.

Disclosure
obligations
The Class Order mandates certain
information that must be
provided to ESS participants.

If the offer of ESS interests is for monetary
consideration:

Certain prescribed disclosure
requirements apply. These disclosure
requirements are similar (although
different) to the current disclosure
requirements under the Class Order.

The participant cannot acquire the ESS
interests until 14 days after receiving the
above disclosure. This mandates a waiting
period ensuring a participant has time to
consider their decision and seek legal
financial advice.

Any associated trust, contribution plan
and loan arrangement will need to comply
with specified requirements.

6.3 Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.2, exception 13(b)

Broadly speaking, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the ability of a listed entity from issuing or agreeing to issue Equity Securities over a 12-month period which exceeds 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary Shares it had on issue at the start of the 12 month period.

FALCON METALS LIMITED

Page 17 of 33

Notice of General Meeting

Listing Rule 7.2, exception 13(b), provides an exception to Listing Rule 7.1 such that issues of Equity Securities under an employee incentive scheme are exempt for a period of three years from the date on which Shareholders approve the issue of Equity Securities under the scheme as an exception to Listing Rule 7.1.

Listing Rule 7.2, exception 13(b), ceases to be available to the Company if there is a material change to the terms of the New Plan from those set out in this Notice in Schedule 2.

If Resolution 7 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities under the New Plan pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2, exception 13(b), to eligible participants over a period of three years up to a nominated maximum amount without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

However, any future issues of Equity Securities under the New 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 will require additional Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14 at the relevant time.

If Resolution 7 is not passed, any issue of Equity Securities pursuant to the New Plan must either be undertaken using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1, or with prior Shareholder approval.

6.4 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.2, exception 13(b)

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.2, exception 13(b), the following information is provided in relation to the New Plan:

  • (a) A summary of the material terms of the New Plan is in Schedule 3.

  • (b) As at the date of this Notice, no Equity Securities have been issued under the New Plan.

  • (c) The Company adopted its Existing Plan as an exception to Listing Rule 7.1 under Listing Rule 7.2, exception 13(b) upon its admission to the official list of ASX. The Company has issued the following Equity Securities under the Existing Plan:

Number of Securities Type of Security Date of issue
1,525,000 Options 8 August 2022
1,300,000 Options 29 November 2022
125,000 Options 12 December 2022
1,160,000 Options 4 July 2023

Note: In addition to the above and subject to the prior receipt of Shareholder approval, the Company has agreed to issue a further 2,360,000 Options under the Existing Plan.

  • (d) The maximum number of Equity Securities proposed to be issued under the New Plan pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2, exception 13(b), following approval of Resolution 7 is 17,700,000 Equity Securities. This number comprises approximately 10% of the Company's Equity Securities currently on issue.

  • (e) A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.

Notice of General Meeting

6.5 Board recommendation

Resolution 7 is an ordinary resolution.

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 7.

7. Resolution 8: Approval of 10% Placement Capacity

7.1 General

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

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% ( 10% Placement Capacity ).

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. The Company is an eligible entity for these purposes.

Resolution 8 seeks Shareholder approval by way of special resolution for the Company to have the 10% Placement Capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval.

If Resolution 8 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 Resolution 8 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the 10% Placement 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.

7.2 Information on 10% Placement Capacity

(a) Quoted securities

Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Capacity must be in the same class as an existing class of Equity Securities of the Company that are quoted on ASX.

As at the date of this Notice, the Company currently has one class of Equity Securities quoted on the ASX, being Ordinary Shares (ASX Code: FAL).

(b) Formula for 10% Placement Capacity

If this Resolution 8 is passed, the Company may issue or agree to issue, during the 12month period after this Meeting, the number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:

Additional Placement Capacity = (A x D) – E

A = the number of fully-paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of the Relevant Period:

  • plus the number of fully-paid ordinary securities issued in the Relevant Period under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 other than exception 9, 16, or 17;

  • plus the number of fully-paid ordinary securities issued in the Relevant Period on the conversion of convertible securities within Listing Rule 7.2 exception 9 where:

  • the convertible securities were issued or agreed to be issued before the commencement of the Relevant Period; or

FALCON METALS LIMITED

Page 19 of 33

Notice of General Meeting

  - the issue of, or agreement to issue, the convertible securities was approved, or taken under the Listing Rules to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4;
  • plus the number of fully-paid ordinary securities issued in the Relevant Period under an agreement to issue securities within rule 7.2 exception 16 where:

    • the agreement was entered into before the commencement of the Relevant Period; or

    • the agreement or issue was approved, or taken under the Listing Rules to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4;

  • plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the Relevant Period with approval under Listing Rule 7.1 or ASX Listing Rule 7.4;

  • plus the number of partly-paid ordinary securities that became fully-paid in the Relevant Period;

  • less the number of fully-paid ordinary securities cancelled in the Relevant Period;

  • D = 10%; and

  • E = the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the Relevant Period where the issue or agreement has not been subsequently approved by Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.4.

7.3 Listing Rule requirements

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to this Resolution 7:

(a) Period for which the 10% Placement Capacity is valid

The 10% Placement Capacity will commence on the date of the Meeting at which the Shareholder approval is obtained and expire on the first to occur of the following:

  • (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of this Meeting (i.e. 29 November 2023), presuming Shareholder approval is obtained;

  • (ii) the time and date of the Company’s next annual general meeting; and

  • (iii) 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).

(b) Minimum Price at which equity securities may be issued

Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Capacity will be in an existing quoted class of Equity Securities and be issued 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:

  • (i) 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

  • (ii) 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.

(c) Use of funds raised under 10% Placement Capacity The Company intends to use funds raised from issues of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for:

FALCON METALS LIMITED

Page 20 of 33

Notice of General Meeting

  • (i) the acquisition of new resources, assets and investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition);

  • (ii) continued exploration expenditure on the Company’s current assets/or projects (funds would then be used for project, feasibility studies and ongoing project administration);

  • (iii) the development of the Company’s current business; and

  • (iv) general working capital.

(d)

Risk of voting dilution

If Resolution 8 is passed and the Company issues securities under the 10% Placement Capacity, then there is a risk to existing Shareholders of economic and voting dilution, including the risk that:

  • (i) the market price for Equity Securities in the same class may be significantly lower on the issue date of the new Equity Securities than on the date Shareholder approval is obtained for this Resolution; and

  • (ii) the new Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for Equity Securities in the same class on the issue date.

The table below shows the potential dilution of existing Shareholders following the issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity (based on the formula set out above) using difference variables for the number of issued Ordinary Shares and the market price of Ordinary Shares. The table overleaf is calculated using the closing market price of Shares and the number of Equity Securities on issue as at 23 October 2023.

The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 10% Placement Capacity.

FALCON METALS LIMITED

Notice of General Meeting

The table above uses the following assumptions:

  • (i) There are 177,000,000 Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice (ASX Code: FAL).

  • (ii) The issue price set out above is the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 23 October 2023.

  • (iii) The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity.

  • (iv) The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

  • (v) The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity consists only of Shares. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities.

  • (vi) 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.

  • (vii) This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 unless otherwise disclosed.

  • (viii) 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%.

  • (ix) The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Capacity, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.

Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:

  • (1) the market price for the Company’s Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and

  • (2) the Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Shares on the date of issue.

(e) Allocation under the 10% Placement Capacity

The recipients of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been determined. However, the recipients of Equity Securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company.

The Company will determine the recipients at the time of the issue under the 10% Placement Capacity, having regard to the following factors:

  • (1) the purpose of the issue;

  • (2) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;

  • (3) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;

  • (4) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company;

  • (5) prevailing market conditions; and

  • (6) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).

A voting exclusion statement is included in this Notice of Meeting.

  • (a) the total number of Plan Shares (as defined in paragraph 13 below) that may be issued or acquired upon exercise of the convertible securities offered; plus

  • (b) the total number of Plan Shares issued or that may be issued as a result of offers made under the New Plan at any time during the previous 3 year period,

would exceed 5% of the total number of Shares on issue at the date of the offer or such other limit as may be specified by the relevant regulations or the Company’s Constitution from time to time.

  1. ( Purpose ): The purpose of the New Plan is to:

  2. (a) assist in the reward, retention and motivation of Eligible Participants;

  3. (b) link the reward of Eligible Participants to Shareholder value creation; and

Notice of General Meeting

  1. ( Eligibility, invitation and application ): The Board may from time to time determine that an Eligible Participant may participate in the New Plan and make an invitation to that Eligible Participant to apply for Securities on such terms and conditions as the Board decides. An invitation issued under the New Plan will comply with the disclosure obligations pursuant to Division 1A.

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. A waiting period of at least 14 days will apply to acquisitions of Securities for monetary consideration as required by the provisions of Division 1A.

  1. ( Grant of Securities ): The Company will, to the extent that it has accepted a duly completed application, grant the successful applicant ( Participant ) the relevant number of Securities, subject to the terms and conditions set out in the invitation, the New Plan rules and any ancillary documentation required.

  2. ( Terms of Convertible Securities ): Each ‘Convertible Security’ represents a right to acquire one or more Shares (for example, under an option or performance right), subject to the terms and conditions of the New Plan.

Prior to a Convertible Security being exercised a Participant does not have any interest (legal, equitable or otherwise) in any Share the subject of the Convertible Security by virtue of holding the Convertible Security A Participant may not sell, assign, transfer, grant a security interest over or otherwise deal with a Convertible Security that has been granted to them. A Participant must not enter into any arrangement for the purpose of hedging their economic exposure to a Convertible Security that has been granted to them.

  1. ( Vesting of Convertible Securities ): Any vesting conditions applicable to the grant of Convertible Securities will be described in the invitation.

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.

  2. ( 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 below), pay the exercise price (if any) to or as directed by the Company, at any time prior to the earlier of any date specified in the vesting notice and the expiry date as set out in the invitation.

At the time of exercise of the Convertible Securities, and subject to Board approval, 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

  1. ( Delivery of Shares on exercise of Convertible Securities ): 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 New Plan rules and issue a substitute certificate for any remaining unexercised Convertible Securities held by that Participant.

  2. ( Forfeiture of Convertible Securities ): Where a Participant who holds Convertible Securities ceases to be an Eligible Participant or becomes insolvent, all unvested Convertible Securities will automatically be forfeited by the Participant, unless the Board otherwise determines in its discretion to permit some or all of the Convertible Securities to vest.

Where the Board determines that a Participant has acted fraudulently or dishonestly, or wilfully breached his or her duties to the Group, the Board may in its discretion deem all unvested Convertible Securities held by that Participant to have been forfeited.

Unless the Board otherwise determines, or as otherwise set out in the New Plan rules: any Convertible Securities which have not yet vested will be forfeited immediately on the date that the Board determines (acting reasonably and in good faith) that any applicable vesting conditions have not been met or cannot be met by the relevant date; and any Convertible Securities which have not yet vested will be automatically forfeited on the expiry date specified in the invitation.

  1. ( Change of control ): If a change of control event occurs in relation to the Company, 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 Participant’s Convertible Securities will be dealt with, including, without limitation, in a manner that allows the Participant to participate in and/or benefit from any transaction arising from or in connection with the change of control event.

  2. ( Rights attaching to Plan Shares ): All Shares issued under the New Plan, or issued or transferred to a Participant upon the valid exercise of a Convertible Security, ( Plan Shares ) will rank pari passu in all respects with the Shares of the same class.

A Participant may exercise any voting rights attaching to Plan Shares.

  3. ( Disposal restrictions on Securities ): If the invitation provides that any Plan Shares or Convertible Securities 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.

FALCON METALS LIMITED

Notice of General Meeting

  1. ( 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 allotment 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

  1. ( Participation in new issues ): There are no participation rights or entitlements inherent in the Convertible Securities and holders are not entitled to participate in any new issue of Shares of the Company during the currency of the Convertible Securities without exercising the Convertible Securities.

  2.

No amendment to any provision of the New Plan rules may be made if the amendment materially reduces the rights of any Participant as they existed before the date of the amendment, other than an amendment introduced primarily for the purpose of complying with legislation or to correct manifest error or mistake, amongst other things, or is agreed to in writing by all Participants.

  1. ( Plan duration ): The New Plan continues in operation until the Board decides to end it. The Board may from time to time suspend the operation of the New Plan for a fixed period or indefinitely, and may end any suspension. If the New Plan is terminated or suspended for any reason, that termination or suspension must not prejudice the accrued rights of the Participants.

  2. ( 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 securities for holders under the Plan and delivering Shares on behalf of holders upon exercise of Options or Performance Rights.
