How to vote

Shareholders can vote by either:

  • attending the Meeting and voting in person or by attorney or, in the case of corporate Shareholders, by appointing a corporate representative to attend and vote; or

  • appointing a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf using the Proxy Form for this Notice of Meeting and by submitting their proxy appointment and voting instructions in person, by post, electronically via the internet or by facsimile.

Voting in person (or by attorney)

Shareholders, or their attorneys, who plan to attend the Meeting are asked to arrive at the venue 15 minutes prior to the time designated for the Meeting, if possible, so that their holding may be checked against the Company's share register and their attendance recorded. To be effective a certified copy of the Power of Attorney, or the original Power of Attorney, must be received by the Company in the same manner, and by the same time as outlined for Proxy Forms below.

Voting by a Corporation

A Shareholder that is a corporation may appoint an individual to act as its representative and vote in person at the Meeting. The appointment must comply with the requirements of section 250D of the Corporations Act. The representative should bring to the Meeting evidence of his or her appointment, including any authority under which it is signed.

Voting by proxy

  • A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote is entitled to appoint a proxy. Each proxy will have the right to vote on a poll and also to speak at the Meeting.

  • The appointment of the proxy may specify the proportion or the number of votes that the proxy may exercise. A Shareholder who is entitled to cast 2 or more votes may appoint two proxies. Where two proxies are appointed and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the Shareholder's votes each proxy may exercise, each proxy may exercise half of the votes.

  • A fraction of votes resulting from the application of the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules or the Company’s Constitution shall be disregarded.

  • A proxy need not be a Shareholder.

  • The proxy can be either an individual or a body corporate.

  • Where the Proxy Form specify the manner in which the proxy is to vote in respect of a Resolution, the proxy is not entitled to vote on the Resolution except as specified in the instrument.

  • If a proxy is not directed how to vote on an item of business, the proxy may generally vote, or abstain from voting, as they think fit. However, where a Restricted Voter is appointed as a proxy, the proxy may only vote on Resolution 1 in accordance with a direction on how the proxy is to vote or, if the proxy is the Chair of the Meeting and the appointment expressly authorises the Chair to exercise the proxy even if the Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the Key Management Personnel.

  • Should any resolution, other than those specified in this Notice of Meeting, be proposed at the Meeting, a proxy may vote on that resolution as they think fit.

  • If a proxy is instructed to abstain from voting on an item of business, they are directed not to vote on the Shareholder's behalf on the poll and the Shares that are the subject of the proxy appointment will not be counted in calculating the required majority.

  • Shareholders who return their Proxy Forms with a direction how to vote, but who do not nominate the identity of their proxy, will be taken to have appointed the Chair of the Meeting as their proxy to vote on their behalf. If a Proxy Form is returned but the nominated proxy does not attend the Meeting, the Chair of the Meeting will act in place of the nominated proxy and vote in accordance with any instructions. Proxy appointments in favour of the Chair of the Meeting, the secretary or any Director that do not contain a direction how to vote will be used, where possible, to support each of the Resolutions proposed in this Notice of Meeting, provided they are entitled to cast votes as a proxy under the voting exclusion rules which apply to some of the proposed Resolutions. These rules are explained in this Notice of Meeting.

  • To be effective, proxies must be received by 10:00 am (AWST time) on 28 November 2021.

  • Proxies may be lodged using any of the following methods:

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

This Explanatory Memorandum is intended to provide Shareholders with sufficient information to assess the merits of the Resolutions contained in the accompanying Notice of Meeting of the Company.

Certain abbreviations and other defined terms are used throughout this Explanatory Memorandum. Defined terms are generally identifiable by the use of an upper case first letter. Details of the definitions and abbreviations are set out in the Glossary to the Explanatory Memorandum.

Financial Reports

The first item of the Notice deals with the presentation of the consolidated annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2021, together with the Directors' declaration and report in relation to that financial year and the Auditor's Report on the financial report. Shareholders should consider these documents and raise any matters of interest with the Directors when this item is being considered.

No resolution is required to be moved in respect of this item.

Shareholders will be given a reasonable opportunity at the Annual General Meeting to ask questions and make comments on the accounts and on the management of the Company.

The Chair will also give Shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask the Auditor or the Auditor’s representative questions relevant to:

  • (a) the conduct of the audit;

  • (b) the preparation and content of the independent audit report;

  • (c) the accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of the financial statements; and

  • (d) the independence of the Auditor by the Company in relation to the conduct of the audit.

The Chair will also allow a reasonable opportunity for the Auditor or their representative to answer any written questions submitted to the Auditor under section 250PA of the Corporations Act.

1 Resolution 1 – Non Binding Resolution to adopt Remuneration Report

Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act requires the Company to put to its Shareholders a resolution that the Remuneration Report as disclosed in the Company's 2021 Annual Report be adopted. The Remuneration Report is set out in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report and is also available on the Company’s website (www.finresources.com.au).

The vote on this Resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company.

However, if at least 25% of the votes cast are against adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put a resolution to the second Annual General Meeting ( Spill Resolution ), to approve calling a general meeting ( Spill Meeting ). If more than 50% of Shareholders vote in favour of the Spill Resolution, the Company must then convene a Spill Meeting within 90 days of the second Annual General Meeting. All of the Directors who were in office when the applicable Directors’ Report was approved, other than the Managing Director, will need to stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting if they wish to continue as Directors.

7

The remuneration report for the financial year ended 30 June 2020 did not receive a vote of more than 25% against its adoption at the Company’s last general meeting held on 30 November 2020. Accordingly, if at least 25% of the votes cast on this Resolution are against adoption of the Remuneration Report it will not result in the Company putting a Spill Resolution to Shareholders.

The Remuneration Report explains the Board policies in relation to the nature and level of remuneration paid to Directors, sets out remuneration details for each Director and any service agreements and sets out the details of any equity based compensation.

The Chair will give Shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report.

Voting

Note that a voting exclusion applies to this Resolution in the terms set out in the Notice.

Shareholders are urged to carefully read the Proxy Form and provide a direction to the proxy on how to vote on this Resolution.

2 Resolution 2 – Re-election of Mr Simon Mottram as a Director

Pursuant to Clause 14.2 of the Company's Constitution, Mr Simon Mottram, being a Director, retires by way of rotation and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election as a Director.

Mr Mottram is a geologist with over 25 years’ experience predominantly in base and precious metals. Mr Mottram has held both executive and senior management positions with several successful mining companies both in Australia and overseas and has seen a number of discoveries advanced through to commercial mine development and has been central to several significant exploration successes.

Prior to joining the Company, Mr Mottram was as part of the successful executive team that took Avanco Resources Limited from a small junior through discovery and into production, building a successful mining company with an impressive portfolio, that was subsequently purchased on market by mid-tier Australian copper producer OZ Minerals for circa $440M in 2018.

Mr Mottram is an expert in the application of modern exploration techniques, economic geology and development, large-scale drill programmes and feasibility studies. Mr Mottram is a graduate of Melbourne RMIT University and a Fellow of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy.

Currently, Mr Mottram is also a director of Odin Metals Limited and Medusa Mining Limited.

Mr Mottram was appointed to the Board on 29 June 2020. The Board considers that Mr Mottram, if elected, will continue to be classified as an independent director.

Based on Mr Mottram’s relevant experience and qualifications, the members of the Board, in the absence of Mr Mottram, support the election of Mr Mottram as a director of the Company.

3 Resolution 3 – Re-election of Mr Ryan de Franck as a Director

Resolution 4 seeks approval for the election of Mr Ryan de Franck as a Director with effect from the end of the Meeting.

Clause 14.4 of the Constitution provides that the Directors may at any time appoint a person to be a Director, either to fill a casual vacancy, or as an addition to the existing Directors, but so that the total number of Directors does not at any time exceed the maximum number specified by the Constitution. Any Director so appointed holds office only until the next following Annual General Meeting and is then eligible for election but shall not be taken into account in determining the Directors who are to retire by rotation (if any) at that meeting.

8

Mr de Franck having been appointed by the Board on 28 April 2021, retires from office in accordance with the requirements of clause 14.4 of the Constitution and submits himself for election in accordance with clause 14.3 of the Constitution.

Mr de Franck holds a Bachelor of Commerce degree from the University of Western Australia, a Masters in Applied Finance from Financial Securities Institute of Australia and a Graduate Diploma in Mineral Exploration Geoscience from the Western Australian School of Mines. In 2014 he founded Valperlon, a diversified natural resources exploration and project development group. In 2016, having identified the compelling market opportunity, highly favourable natural conditions and unique logistics and infrastructure advantages, he established North West Solar Salt to pursue the development of the North Onslow Salt Project. From 2011 to 2014 he was a Corporate Finance Executive with Liberum Capital in London and from 2007 to 2010 he was a Corporate Finance Executive with Deloitte in Perth.

The Board considers that Mr de Franck, if elected, will not be classified as an independent director.

The Company confirms it has conducted appropriate checks into Mr de Franck’s background and experience and those checks have not revealed any information of concern.

Based on Mr de Franck’s relevant experience and qualifications , the members of the Board, in the absence of Mr de Franck, support the election of Mr de Franck as a director of the Company.

4 Resolution 4 – Approval of Additional 10% Placement Capacity

Background

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.

Under Listing Rule 7.1A, however, 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% ( Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate ).

An ‘eligible entity’ means an entity which is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and which has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. The Company is an eligible entity for these purposes.

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

If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities up to the combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without any further Shareholder approval.

If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the additional 10% capacity to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval provided for in 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.

9

The number of Equity Securities which may be issued pursuant to the Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate

Based on the number of Shares on issue at the date of this Notice, the Company will have 513,295,480 Shares on issue and therefore, subject to Shareholder approval being obtained under this Resolution, 51,329,548 Equity Securities will be permitted to be issued in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A. Shareholders should note that the calculation of the number of Equity Securities permitted to be issued under the Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate is a moving calculation and will be based the formula set out in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 at the time of issue of the Equity Securities. That formula is:

(A x D) – E

  • A is the number of Shares on issue 12 months immediately preceding the date of issue or agreement ( Relevant Period ):

    • (a) plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the Relevant Period under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 other than exception 9, 16 or 17;

      • (i) plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the Relevant Period on the conversion of convertible securities within Listing Rule 7.2 exception 9 where:

      • (ii) the convertible securities were issued or agreed to be issued before the commencement of the relevant period; or

      • (iii) the issue of, or agreement to issue, the convertible securities was approved or taken under the Listing Rules to have been approved, under Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.4;

  • (b) plus the number of Shares issued in the Relevant Period under an agreement to issue securities within Listing Rule 7.2 exception 16 where:

     - (i) the agreement was entered into before the commencement of the Relevant Period; or
    
     - (ii) the agreement or issue was approved, or taken under these rules to have been approved, under Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.4;
    
  • (c) plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the Relevant Period with approval of holders of Shares under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4;

  • (d) plus the number of party paid Shares that become fully paid in the Relevant Period;

  • (e) less the number of fully paid Shares cancelled in the Relevant Period.

Note that ‘A’ is has the same meaning in Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating an entity's 15% placement capacity.

D is 10%

  • E is 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 to issue has not been subsequently approved by Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.4.

10

Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A

  • (a) If the Resolution is passed, the Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate will be valid during the period from the date of the Annual General Meeting and will expire on the earlier of:

  • (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the Annual General Meeting;

  • (ii) the time and date of the Company’s next Annual General Meeting; and

  • (iii) the time and date on which the Company receives approval by Shareholders for a transaction under Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking) ( Approval Period ).

  • (b) The Equity Securities to be issued will be in an existing class of quoted securities and will be issued for cash consideration at an issue price per Equity Security of not less than 75% of the volume weighted average price for the Company's Equity Securities over the 15 Trading Days on which trades in the 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 Company and the recipient of the Equity Securities; or

  • (ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within ten Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

  • (c) the Shares are being issued to raise cash to fund:

  • (i) general working capital expenses; and

  • (ii) exploration activities associated with its current projects.

  • (d) If this Resolution is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues Equity Securities under the Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate, the existing Shareholders' economic and voting interests in the Company will be diluted. There is also a risk that:

  • (i) the market price for the Company's Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than on the date the Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate was approved; and

  • (ii) the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for the Company's Equity Securities on the issue date or the Equity Securities; or

Note : This table assumes:

  • No Options are exercised before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities.

  • The “Issue Price at current market price” is based on the closing price for Shares in the Company on 20 October 2021.

  • The issue of Equity Securities under the Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate consists only of Shares. If the issue of Equity Securities includes quoted Options, for the purposes of the above table, it is assumed that those quoted Options are exercised into Shares for the purposes of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.

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

  • The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2, with approval under Listing Rule 7.1 or ratified under Listing Rule 7.4.

  • This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to ratification under Listing Rule 7.4.

The table shows only the effect of issues of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • (e) The identity of the persons to whom Shares will be issued is not yet known and will be determined on a case by case basis having regard to market conditions at the time of the

12

proposed issue of Equity Securities and the Company’s allocation policy, which involves consideration of matters including, but not limited to:

  • (i) the ability of the Company to raise funds at the time of the proposed issue of Equity Securities and whether the raising of any funds under such placement could be carried out by means of an entitlement offer, or a placement and an entitlements offer;

  • (ii) the dilutionary effect of the proposed issue of the Equity Securities on existing Shareholders at the time of proposed issued of Equity Securities;

  • (iii) the financial situation and solvency of the Company; and

  • (iv) advice from its professional advisers, including corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).

The persons to whom Shares will be issued under the Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate have not been determined as at the date of this Notice, but will not include related parties (or their Associates) of the Company.

  • (f) The Company has previously issued Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 on one occasion in the 12 months preceding the date of the Meeting. A total of 29,169,144 Equity Securities were issued, which represents 10% of the total number of Equity Securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period. Further details of that issue are as follows:

  • (i) The date of issue was 5 May 2021.

5 Resolution 5 – Renewal of proportional takeover provisions

Background

The Corporations Act permits a company to include in its constitution provisions (called takeover approval provisions ) requiring that a proportional or partial takeover offer (ie an offer for less than 100% of the shares but for the same proportion of each shareholder’s shares) be approved by a majority of shareholders, before it may proceed. In effect, the approval of Resolution 6 will enable the Company to refuse to register shares acquired under a proportional takeover bid unless than bid is approved by a majority of shareholders.

The Company’s Constitution currently contains provisions dealing with proportional takeover bids.

Section 648G of the Corporations Act

The following information is provided pursuant to section 648G of the Corporations Act.

(a) Operation of the proportional takeover provisions

If the proportional takeover provisions set out in Rule 36 of the Company’s Constitution are renewed the registration of a transfer of Shares acquired under a proportional takeover offer will be prohibited

13

unless an approving resolution is passed by Shareholders in the Company in the manner provided in Rule 36 of the Company’s Constitution.

The proportional takeover provisions do not apply to a full takeover bid for all of the Shares of the Company.

If the Company’s existing proportional takeover provisions are renewed and a proportional takeover offer is subsequently made for Shares in the Company, the Directors must seek Shareholder approval by a majority vote to register transfers under the proportional takeover bid. The Shareholder approval can be obtained at a general meeting of Shareholders.

In either case, those Shareholders who are entitled to vote at the general meeting are the Shareholders (other than the bidder and its associates) who are recorded on the register of members at the end of the day on which the first of the takeover offers under the proportional takeover bid is made.

The resolution must be voted on at least 14 days before the last day of the offer period under the proportional takeover bid. The resolution will be passed if more than 50 percent of eligible votes are cast in favour of the approval. If no such resolution has been voted on at least 14 days before the last day of the bid period then a resolution to approve the registration of transfers under the bid is taken to have been passed.

If the resolution is not passed by a majority of the shares voted, then the offer will be deemed to be withdrawn and registration of any transfer of shares resulting from the offer will be prohibited. Acceptances will be returned and any contracts formed by acceptance will be rescinded. If the resolution is approved, transfers of shares to the bidder will be registered provided they comply with the other provisions of the Constitution.

If renewed, Rule 36 of the Company’s Constitution will have effect for a three year period commencing on 30 November 2021.

(b) Current acquisition proposals

As at the day on which this Notice and Explanatory Memorandum is prepared, none of the Directors of the Company is aware of a proposal by a person to acquire, or to increase the extent of, a substantial interest in the Company.

(c) Advantages of proportional takeover provisions to Shareholders

Potential advantages to Shareholders of the renewal of proportional takeover provisions in the Company’s Constitution are set out below:

  • (i) The takeover approval provisions may enable Shareholders to act together and so avoid the coercion of Shareholders that might otherwise arise where they believe a partial offer is inadequate, but nevertheless accept through concern that a significant number of other Shareholders will accept.

  • (ii) The takeover approval provisions may provide Shareholders with protection against being coerced into accepting a partial bid at a high premium where the bidder indicates its intention to mount a subsequent bid for the remaining shares at a much reduced price. This puts pressure on Shareholders to accept the initial bid in order to maximise their returns.

  • (iii) If a partial bid is made, the takeover approval provisions may make it more probable that a bidder will set its offer price at a level that will be attractive to at least a majority of Shareholders.

14

  • (iv) The body of Shareholders may more effectively advise and guide the Directors’ response to a partial bid, and knowing the view of the majority of Shareholders may assist individual Shareholders to assess the likely outcome of the proportional bid and decide whether or not to accept an offer under the bid.

  • (v) The takeover approval provisions may make it more probable that any takeover offer will be a full bid for the whole shareholding of each Shareholder, so that Shareholders may have the opportunity of disposing of all their Shares rather than only a proportion.

(d) Disadvantages of the proportional takeover provisions to Shareholders

Potential disadvantages to Shareholders of the renewal of proportional takeover provisions in the Company’s Constitution are set out below:

  • (i) By placing obstacles in the way of partial offers, the proposal may tend to discourage partial offers, thus reducing the opportunity for Shareholders to sell a portion of their holding.

  • (ii) It is possible that the existence of the takeover approval provisions might have an adverse effect on the market value of the Company’s Shares by making a partial offer less likely thus reducing any takeover speculation element in the Share price.

  • (iii) An individual Shareholder who wishes to accept a proportional offer will be unable to sell to the bidder unless a majority of Shareholders favour the proportional takeover scheme (which may be viewed as an additional restriction on the ability of individual Shareholders to deal freely in their Shares).

  • (iv) If a proportional takeover offer is made, the Company will incur the cost of calling a meeting of Shareholders.

(e) Advantages and disadvantages of the proportional takeover provisions for the Directors

Potential advantages and disadvantages to the Directors of the renewal of proportional takeover provisions in the Company’s Constitution are set out below:

  • (i) If the Directors consider that a proportional bid should be opposed, they will be assisted in preventing the bidder from securing control of the Company as the bidder will need a majority of votes to be cast in its favour by the independent Shareholders, before the bidder can succeed.

  • (ii) On the other hand, under the takeover approval provisions, if a proportional takeover offer is received, the Directors must call a meeting to seek the Shareholders’ views. They must do so even if the Directors believe that the offer should be accepted.

  • (iii) At present, it is only the Directors who express any formal view on the adequacy or otherwise of a takeover bid, on behalf of the Company. Under the takeover approval provisions the most effective view on a proportional bid will become the view expressed by the vote of the Shareholders themselves, at the meeting.

  • (iv) The takeover approval provisions may make it easier for the Directors to discharge their fiduciary and statutory duties as directors in the event of a proportional takeover bid.

15

(f) Reasons for proposing the Resolution

Having considered the advantages and disadvantages to Shareholders and the Directors, the Directors have decided to put this Resolution to Shareholders, to give Shareholders an opportunity to take advantage of the protections which the takeover approval provisions offer, if a proportional takeover offer is made.
