EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.

1. RESOLUTION 1 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF RIGHTS – DR MICHAEL ANDERSON

1.1 Background

As announced on 20 February 2023, current Executive Director, Dr Michael Anderson, has been appointed Managing Director of the Company, effective from 7 March 2023.

The terms upon which Dr Anderson was appointed as Managing Director are as follows.

  • (a) Base salary: Dr Anderson is entitled to receive a base salary of A$300,000 per annum.

  • (b) Termination period: 3 months’ notice by either party or immediately by the Company by paying out the notice period.

  • (c) Director Performance Rights : under the employment agreement, Dr Anderson was entitled to be issued an aggregate of 10,000,000 performance rights which will vest into Shares on a 1:1 basis in five tranches, subject to satisfaction of the terms and conditions set out in Schedule 1 ( Director Performance Rights ).

The employment agreement between the Company and Dr Anderson otherwise contains terms and conditions considered typical for an agreement of its type.

The Director Performance Rights were agreed to be issued to Dr Anderson as part of his appointment. The Company issued them without seeking Shareholder approval under exception 12 under Listing Rule 10.12, which is an exception to Listing Rule 10.11.

1.2 Listing Rules 7.1, 7.1A and 7.4

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 shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

Under Listing Rule 7.1A, an eligible entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25%. The Company obtained this approval at its annual general meeting held on 28 November 2022.

The issue of the Director Performance Rights does not fit within any of the exceptions to Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, effectively uses up part of the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1. This reduces the Company's capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under those Listing Rules for the 12-month period following the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares.

Listing Rule 7.4 provides an exception to Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A. It provides that where a company in a general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities

4

made pursuant to Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A (and provided that the previous issue did not breach Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A), those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.

The effect of Shareholders passing Resolution 1 will be to allow the Company to retain the flexibility to issue Equity Securities in the future up to the 15% additional placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1 and the 10% additional placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1A, without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

If Resolution 1 is passed, 10,000,000 Director Performance Rights will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, 10,000,000 Director Performance Rights will continue to be included in the Company’s 15% limit under Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue or agree to issue without obtaining prior Shareholder approval, to the extent of 10,000,000 Equity Securities for the 12 month period following the issue of those 10,000,000 Director Performance Rights.

1.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.5

Pursuant to, and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to the issue of the Director Performance Rights:

  • (a) the Director Performance Rights were issued to Dr Anderson (or his nominee), in his capacity as Managing Director;

  • (b) 10,000,000 Director Performance Rights have been issued to Dr Anderson (or his nominee);

  • (c) the terms of the issued Director Performance Rights are as follows:

All Director Performance Rights expire five (5) years from the date of issue.

5

==> picture [371 x 449] intentionally omitted <==

  • (d) the Director Performance Rights were issued on 8 March 2023;

  • (e) the Director Performance Rights were issued for nil cash consideration as part of the appointment of Dr Anderson to the role of Managing Director of the Company;

  • (f) the purpose of the issue of the Director Performance Rights is to motivate and reward Dr Anderson’s performance as Managing Director;

  • (g) the Director Performance Rights were issued pursuant to Dr Anderson’s executive services agreement, set out in Section 1.1 above; and

  • (h) pursuant to the Listing Rules, the Company will disregard any votes cast in favour of this Resolution by or on behalf of Dr Anderson (and his nominees), and any other person who will obtain a material benefit as a result of the issue of the Director Performance Rights (except a benefit solely by reason of being a Shareholder), or any of their respective associates.

1.4 Additional information

Resolution 1 is an ordinary resolution.

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.

2. RESOLUTION 2 – APPROVAL OF NEW PLAN

2.1 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 separate regime for the making of offers in connection with an ESS ( New Regime ). This regime will replace the current relief afforded by ASIC Class Order 14/1000 ( Class Order ), which commenced on 30 October 2014. Entities may continue to make new offers under the Class Order relief until 1 January 2023.

In order to ensure that the Company is afforded the relief provided by the New Regime, the Company considers it necessary to adopt a new ESS that makes reference to the New Regime and includes the changes that came into effect on 1 October 2022.

Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder approval for the adoption of the new ESS titled the ‘Forrestania Resources Limited Employee Securities Incentive Plan’ ( New Plan ) in accordance with Listing Rule 7.2 exception 13(b), for the sole purpose of ensuring that the Company is afforded the relief provided by the New Regime.

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 and conditions is in Schedule 2. 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. A copy of the New Plan can also be sent to Shareholders upon request to the Company Secretary. Shareholders are invited to contact the Company if they have any queries or concerns.

2.2 Key changes between the Class Order and New Regime

Interests that may be issued.

months.

offer ESS Interests regardless of any
suspension to the trading of its
shares.

submitted to ASIC to rely on the
Class Order relief.

2.3 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.

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 2 is passed, the Company will be able to issue up to a maximum of 15,000,000 Equity Securities under the New Plan pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2, exception 13(b), to eligible participants over a period of three years 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 2 is not passed, any issue of Equity Securities pursuant to the New Plan will be made either with Shareholder approval or, in default of Shareholder approval, pursuant to the Company's placement capacity under either or both Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.

2.4 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:

  • (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 2 is 15,000,000 (subject to adjustment in the event of a reorganisation of capital and further subject to applicable laws and the Listing Rules). The maximum number of Equity Securities is not intended to be a prediction of the actual number to be issued under the New Plan but is specified for the purpose of setting a ceiling in accordance with Listing Rule 7.2 exception 13(b). It is not envisaged that the maximum number of Equity Securities for which approval is obtained will be issued immediately; and

As summarised in Section 1.2 above, 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 shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

The proposed issue of the Underwriter Options does not fit within any of the exceptions to Listing Rule 7.1. It therefore requires the approval of the Company’s Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.

4.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company can proceed to issue the Underwriter Options. In addition, the issue of the Underwriter 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 3 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Underwriter Options and will have to consider alternative commercial means to pay the Underwriter for its services, which may include issuing the Underwriter Options using any available 15% placement capacity permitted under Listing Rule 7.1.

4.3

Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.1

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 3:

13

  • (a) the Underwriter Options will be issued to the Underwriter (or its nominees);

  • (b) a maximum of 2,000,000 Underwriter Options will be issued to the Underwriter (or its nominees);

  • (c) the Underwriter are exercisable at $0.15 each and expire on 30 June 2026 and are otherwise subject to the terms and conditions set out in Schedule 3;

SCHEDULE 2 – SUMMARY OF MATERIAL TERMS OF THE NEW PLAN

The following is a summary of the material terms and conditions of the New Plan ( Plan ):

  • (a) ( Eligible Participant ): Eligible Participant means a person that has been determined by the Board to be eligible to participate in the Plan from time to time and is an “ESS participant” (as that term is defined in Division 1A) in relation to the Company or an associated entity of the Company. This relevantly includes, amongst others:

  • (i) an employee or director of the Company or an individual who provides services to the Company;

  • (ii) an employee or director of an associated entity of the Company or an individual who provides services to such an associated entity;

  • (iii) a prospective person to whom paragraphs (i) or (ii) apply;

  • (iv) a person prescribed by the relevant regulations for such purposes; or

  • (v) certain related persons on behalf of the participants described in paragraphs (i) to (iv) (inclusive).

  • (b) ( Maximum allocation ) The Company must not make an offer of Securities under the Plan in respect of which monetary consideration is payable (either upfront, or on exercise of convertible securities) where:

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

  • (ii) the total number of Plan Shares issued or that may be issued as a result of offers made under the 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.

The maximum number of equity securities proposed to be issued under the Plan for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13 will be as approved by Shareholders from time to time ( ASX Limit ). This means that, subject to the following paragraph, the Company may issue up to the ASX Limit under the Plan without seeking Shareholder approval and without reducing its placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

The Company will require prior Shareholder approval for the acquisition of equity securities under the Plan to Directors, their associates and any other person whose relationship with the Company or a Director or a Director’s associate is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the acquisition should be approved by Shareholders. The issue of Securities with Shareholder approval will not count towards the ASX Limit.

  • (c) ( Purpose ): The purpose of the Plan is to:

  • (i) assist in the reward, retention and motivation of Eligible Participants;

  • (ii) link the reward of Eligible Participants to Shareholder value creation; and

20

  • (iii) align the interests of Eligible Participants with shareholders of the Group (being the Company and each of its Associated Bodies Corporate), by providing an opportunity to Eligible Participants to receive an equity interest in the Company in the form of Securities.

  • (d) ( Plan administration ): The Plan will be administered by the Board. The Board may exercise any power or discretion conferred on it by the Plan rules in its sole and absolute discretion, subject to compliance with applicable laws and the Listing Rules. The Board may delegate its powers and discretion.

  • (e) ( Eligibility, invitation and application ): The Board may from time to time determine that an Eligible Participant may participate in the 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 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.

  • (f) ( 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 Plan rules and any ancillary documentation required.

  • (g) ( 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 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.

  • (h) ( Vesting of Convertible Securities ): Any vesting conditions applicable to the grant of Convertible Securities will be described in the invitation. If all the vesting conditions are satisfied and/or otherwise waived by the Board, a vesting notice will be sent to the Participant by the Company informing them that the relevant Convertible Securities have vested. 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.

  • (i) ( 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

21

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 time of exercise and the exercise price that would otherwise be payable to exercise those Convertible Securities.

Market Value means, at any given date, the volume weighted average price per Share traded on the ASX over the 5 trading days immediately preceding that given date, unless otherwise specified in an invitation.

A Convertible Security may not be exercised unless and until that Convertible Security has vested in accordance with the Plan rules, or such earlier date as set out in the Plan rules.

  • (j) ( 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 Plan rules and issue a substitute certificate for any remaining unexercised Convertible Securities held by that Participant.

  • (k) ( 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 Plan rules:

  • (i) 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

  • (ii) any Convertible Securities which have not yet vested will be automatically forfeited on the expiry date specified in the invitation.

  • (l) ( 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.

  • (m) ( Rights attaching to Plan Shares ): All Shares issued under the 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

22

Participant will be entitled to any dividends declared and distributed by the Company on the Plan Shares and may participate in any dividend reinvestment plan operated by the Company in respect of Plan Shares. A Participant may exercise any voting rights attaching to Plan Shares.

  • (n) ( 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.

  • (o) ( 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.

  • (p) ( 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.

  • (q) ( Amendment of Plan ): Subject to the following paragraph, the Board may at any time amend any provisions of the Plan rules, including (without limitation) the terms and conditions upon which any Securities have been granted under the Plan and determine that any amendments to the Plan rules be given retrospective effect, immediate effect or future effect.

No amendment to any provision of the 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.

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

If a Participant and the Company (acting by the Board) agree in writing that some or all of the Securities granted to that Participant are to be cancelled on a specified date or on the occurrence of a particular event, then those Securities may be cancelled in the manner agreed between the Company and the Participant.

23
