1 Resolution 1 – Adoption of remuneration report

==> picture [113 x 80] intentionally omitted <==

Background

The remuneration report for the year ended 31 December 2020 is set out in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report.

The remuneration report:

  • describes the policies behind, and the structure of, the remuneration arrangements of the Company and the link between the remuneration of key management personnel and the Company’s performance; and

  • sets out the remuneration arrangements in place for the Directors and other key management personnel.

Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act requires the AGM to include a vote on the adoption of the remuneration report. In accordance with section 250R(3) of the Corporations Act, the vote on the resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. However, the Directors will take the discussion at the AGM and the outcome of the vote into account when considering the Company’s remuneration policies.

Section 250SA of the Corporations Act requires that a reasonable opportunity be allowed to Shareholders at the AGM to ask questions about, or make comments on, the remuneration report.

In accordance with Division 9 of Part 2G.2 of the Corporations Act, if at least 25% of votes cast are against adoption of the remuneration report at two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders at the second annual general meeting a resolution proposing that another general meeting be held within 90 days, at which all of the Directors (other than the Managing Director) would need to stand for re-election ( Spill Resolution ).

This is the Company’s first annual general meeting since it was admitted to the official list of the ASX. As such, even if at least 25% of the votes cast on Resolution 1 are against adoption of the remuneration report, it will not result in the Company putting a Spill Resolution to Shareholders at the AGM.

Recommendation of Directors

The Directors encourage all eligible Shareholders to vote on the adoption of the remuneration report.

The Chairman intends to vote all available proxies in favour of the adoption of the remuneration report.

2 Resolution 2 – Re-election of Director – Mr John Hodder

As required by the Constitution and the Listing Rules, John Hodder retires as a Director by rotation and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election.

==> picture [113 x 80] intentionally omitted <==

Experience and qualifications

Mr Hodder is a founding principal of Tembo Capital, a mining private equity fund, which specialises in African and emerging markets. He has over 25 years’ experience in the resources industry. He initially worked as a geologist and then in project evaluation for both mineral and oil and gas companies. In 1995, Mr Hodder worked for an international finance corporation financing resources projects within emerging markets, where he gained skills in both project finance and private equity. After that he worked in the funds management industry within Australia where he was directly involved in investing in resources companies listed on the ASX.

Mr Hodder is currently a Non-Executive Director of ASX listed Strandline Resources Limited (appointed 8 June 2016) and in the last 3 years was formerly a Non-Executive Director of Paladin Energy Limited (14 February 2018 to 11 December 2019).

Mr Hodder was appointed a Non-Executive Director of the Company on 22 May 2014 and is a member of both the Remuneration & Nomination Committee and Audit & Risk Management Committee. Mr Hodder was the Chairman of the Board from 20 December 2018 to 10 March 2021.

Recommendation of Directors

The Directors (with Mr Hodder abstaining) recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2. Mr Hodder makes no recommendation regarding his reelection.

The Chairman intends to vote all available proxies in favour of Resolution 2.

3 Resolution 3 – Approval of Company’s Performance Rights Plan

Background

The Company established a performance rights plan ( Performance Rights Plan ) to allow the Board to issue up to a maximum of 12,000,000 performance rights ( Performance Rights ) to employees, eligible contractors and directors to link the reward of participants to the performance of the Company and creation of Shareholder value. The Performance Rights Plan was approved by Shareholders on 28 May 2018.

A summary of the terms of the Performance Rights Plan is set out in Appendix 1.

The grant of any Performance Rights to a Director under the Performance Rights Plan will require specific Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14.

Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.2 exception 13(b)

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 ( 15% Placement Capacity ).

Listing Rule 7.2 exception 13(b) excludes from the restriction in Listing Rule 7.1 any issue of securities under an employee incentive scheme if within 3 years before the issue date the holders of the company’s ordinary securities have approved the issue of securities under the scheme.

==> picture [81 x 68] intentionally omitted <==

14

==> picture [113 x 80] intentionally omitted <==

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to grant Performance Rights under the Performance Rights Plan without using up any of the Company’s 15% Placement Capacity and without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for a period of 3 years after the date of the passing of Resolution 3.

If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Company may still grant Performance Rights under the Performance Rights Plan but any grant will reduce the Company’s capacity to issue equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1 for 12 months following such grant. This may limit the Company’s ability to utilise the Performance Rights Plan without additional Shareholder approval.

Information required by Listing Rule 7.2 exception 13(b)

The following information is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.2 exception 13(b):

  • A summary of the rules of the Performance Rights Plan is set out in Appendix 1. A copy of the full rules of the Performance Rights Plan is also available upon request from the Company.

  • No securities have been issued under the Performance Rights Plan since the Company was admitted to the official list of the ASX on 9 March 2021.

  • The maximum number of Performance Rights proposed to be issued under the Performance Rights Plan within the 3 year period after the date of the passing of Resolution 3 is 25,000,000 Performance Rights. The maximum number is not intended to be a prediction of the actual number of Performance Rights to be granted under the Performance Rights Plan, but simply a ceiling for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.2 exception 13(b).

  • A voting exclusion statement in respect of Resolution 3 has been included in the Notice of Meeting.

Recommendations of Directors

Given that the Directors may participate in the Performance Rights Plan, the Directors make no recommendation in respect of Resolution 3.

The Chairman intends to vote all available proxies in favour of Resolution 3.

4 Resolution 4 – Approval of potential termination benefits under the Performance Rights Plan

Background

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Part 2D.2 of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.19 to approve the giving by the Company of termination benefits to any person in connection with that person ceasing to be an officer of, or ceasing to hold a managerial or executive office in, the Company (or subsidiary of the Company) (each a Group Company ).

Where an Eligible Participant’s employment or office with a Group Company is terminated due to serious or wilful misconduct or otherwise for cause without notice, the Board may under the Performance Rights Plan, by written notice to the Eligible Participant, deem any unvested or vested but unexercised Performance Rights to

==> picture [81 x 68] intentionally omitted <==

15

==> picture [113 x 80] intentionally omitted <==

have lapsed or require the Eligible Participant to do all such things necessary to cancel any Shares issued on exercise of the Eligible Participant’s Performance Rights.

Other than in the above circumstances, if an Eligible Participant’s employment or office with a Group Company ceases so that the Eligible Participant is no longer an Eligible Participant:

  • unvested Performance Rights will lapse, unless the Board:

  • exercises its discretion under the Performance Rights Plan to waive any vesting conditions by written notice to the Eligible Participant; or

  • in its discretion, resolves to allow the unvested Performance Rights to remain subject to vesting conditions after the Eligible Participant ceases to be an Eligible Participant; and

  • vested Performance Rights will lapse unless the Board, in its discretion, resolves that the Performance Rights in question must:

  • be exercised within one month after the date that the Eligible Participant ceases to be an Eligible Participant; or

  • be cancelled by the Company in consideration for a cash payment to the Eligible Participant.

The term "benefit" has a wide operation and would include any automatic and accelerated vesting of Performance Rights as a result of the exercise by the Board of its discretion upon the cessation of a Participant’s employment or office with a Group Company.

The exercise of this discretion by the Board may constitute a “benefit” for the purposes of section 200B of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.19. The Company is therefore seeking Shareholder approval for the exercise of the Board’s discretion in respect of any current or future participant in the Performance Rights Plan who holds:

  • a managerial or executive office in, or is an officer of, a Group Company at the time of their leaving or at any time in the three years prior to their leaving; and

  • Performance Rights under the Performance Rights Plan at the time of their leaving.

The value of the termination benefits that the Board may give under the Performance Rights Plan cannot be determined in advance. This is because various matters will or are likely to affect that value. In particular, the value of a particular benefit will depend on factors such as the Company’s share price at the time of vesting and the number of Performance Rights that will vest. The following additional factors may also affect the benefit’s value:

  • the eligible person’s length of service and the status of the vesting conditions attaching to the relevant Performance Rights at the time the eligible person’s employment or office ceases; and

  • the number of unvested Performance Rights that the eligible person holds at the time they cease employment or office.

Part 2D.2 of the Corporations Act

Part 2D.2 of the Corporations Act restricts the benefits that can be given to persons who hold a “managerial or executive office” (as defined in the Corporations Act) on leaving their employment with the Company or any of its related bodies corporate, unless an exception applies.

Under section 200B of the Corporations Act, a company may only give a person a benefit in connection with their ceasing to hold a managerial or executive office in the company or a related body corporate if it is approved by shareholders under section 200E of the Corporations Act or an exemption applies.

Provided Shareholder approval is given, the value of the termination benefits may be disregarded when applying Section 200F(2)(b) or Section 200G(1)(c) of the Corporations Act (that is, the approved benefit will not count towards the statutory cap under the legislation).

Listing Rule 10.19

Listing Rule 10.19 provides that, without shareholder approval, an entity must ensure that no officer of the entity or any of its child entities will be, or may be, entitled to termination benefits if the value of those benefits and the termination benefits that are or may become payable to all officers together exceed 5% of the equity interests of the entity as set out in the latest accounts given to ASX under the Listing Rules ( 5% Threshold ).

Depending upon the value of the termination benefits (see above), and the equity interests of the Company at the time such benefits may crystallise, it is uncertain if the value of the termination benefits would exceed the 5% Threshold. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is being sought under Listing Rule 10.19 in order to give the Company maximum flexibility, in case the value of the termination benefits exceeds the 5% Threshold at the relevant time.

If this Resolution 4 is passed, the Company will be able to give termination benefits which may exceed the 5% Threshold to any current or future person holding a managerial or executive office in the Company or a related body corporate in connection with that person ceasing to hold that managerial or executive office.

If this Resolution 4 is not passed, the Company will not be able to give termination benefits to any current or future person holding a managerial or executive office in the Company or a related body corporate in connection with that person ceasing to hold that managerial or executive office where those termination benefits exceed the 5% Threshold.

Recommendations of Directors

Given that the Directors may participate in the Performance Rights Plan and receive termination benefits, the Directors make no recommendation in respect of Resolution 4.

The Chairman intends to vote all available proxies in favour of Resolution 4.

5 Resolutions 5 and 6 – Approval of grant of Performance Rights to Mr Michael Arnett and Mr Brian van Rooyen

Background

Mr Michael Arnett is the Chairman and a Non-Executive Director of the Company, and holds 735,294 Shares. Mr Brian van Rooyen is a Non-Executive Director of the Company.

  • 1,600,000 Performance Rights to Mr Michael Arnett; and

  • 1,200,000 Performance Rights to Mr Brian van Rooyen,

(together, the Participating Directors ).

The Company proposes to grant a total of 2,800,000 Performance Rights to the Participating Directors. Each Performance Right, when duly exercised, will convert to a Share.

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits a public company from giving a financial benefit to a related party of the public company unless either:

  • the giving of the financial benefits falls within one of the nominated exceptions to the provision; or

  • Shareholder approval is obtained prior to the giving of the financial benefit and the benefit is given within 15 months after obtaining such approval.

For the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, each of the Participating Directors is a related party of the Company.

Each of Resolutions 5 and 6 relate to the proposed grant of Performance Rights to the Participating Directors, or their nominees, which is a financial benefit that requires Shareholder approval for the purposes of section 208 of the Corporations Act.

Listing Rule 10.14

Listing Rule 10.14 provides that a listed company must not permit any of the following persons to acquire equity securities under an employee incentive scheme:

  • a director of the company (Listing Rule 10.14.1);

==> picture [81 x 68] intentionally omitted <==

19

==> picture [113 x 80] intentionally omitted <==

  • an Associate of a director of the company (Listing Rule 10.14.12); or

• a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in Listing Rule 10.14.1 or 10.14.2 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the acquisition should be approved by its shareholders (Listing Rule 10.14.3),

unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.

The proposed grant of Performance Rights to the Participating Directors, or their nominees, pursuant to Resolutions 5 and 6 falls within Listing Rule 10.14.1 and therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.14.

If Resolutions 5 and 6 are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the grant of the Performance Rights and any subsequent issue of Shares upon the vesting of such Performance Rights will not count towards the Company’s 15% Placement Capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 (without the need for separate Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1).

If Resolutions 5 and 6 are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed to grant the Performance Rights to the Participating Directors, or their nominees. The Company may then need to consider alternative arrangements to appropriately remunerate and incentivise the Participating Directors.

Information required by section 219 of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.15

  • The Performance Rights will be granted to Mr Arnett and Mr van Rooyen, or their nominees, on the terms and conditions set out above and pursuant to the Performance Rights Plan, a summary of which is set out in Appendix 1.

  • Each of the Participating Directors are related parties of the Company under Listing Rule 10.14.1 by virtue of being Directors.

  • Subject to Shareholder approval, the proposed financial benefit to be given is the granting of:

  • 1,600,000 Performance Rights to Mr Arnett, or his nominee; and

  • 1,200,000 Performance Rights to Mr van Rooyen, or his nominee,

for no consideration.

  • The current total remuneration package of each Participating Director (on an annualised basis) is set out below:
Participating Director Salary and fees
Mr Michael Arnett US$80,000
Mr Brian van Rooyen US$60,000

==> picture [81 x 68] intentionally omitted <==

20

==> picture [113 x 80] intentionally omitted <==

The Company has not previously issued Performance Rights to the Participating Directors, or their nominees, under the Performance Rights Plan;

• The grant of the Performance Rights encourages the Participating Directors to have a greater involvement in the achievement of the Company’s objectives and to provide an incentive to strive to that end by participating in the future growth and prosperity of the Company through Share ownership. Under the Company’s current circumstances, the Directors consider (in the absence of the Participating Directors) that the incentives intended for the Participating Directors represented by the grant of these Performance Rights are a cost effective and efficient means for the Company to provide a reward and an incentive.

The highest and lowest closing market sale prices of the Shares since the Company was admitted to the official list of ASX prior to the date of this Notice were:

Highest $0.305 per Share on 12 March 2021

Lowest $0.24 per Share on 14 April 2021

Note: Trading in Shares commenced on ASX on 10 March 2021.

The latest available closing market sale price of the Shares on ASX prior to the date of this Notice was $0.28 per Share on 26 April 2021.

  • The Performance Rights have been valued by RSM Australia Pty Ltd ( RSM ) as follows:

  • RSM considered that the vesting condition attached to 400,000 of the Performance Rights proposed to be issued to Mr Arnett and 300,000 of the Performance Rights proposed to be issued to Mr van Rooyen (being, the vesting condition of the Company achieving a 30-day VWAP of at least $0.70 per Share) falls within the definition of a ‘market condition’ under AASB Standard 2. Accordingly, RSM valued these Performance Rights using the Hoadley Trading & Investment Tools Barrier 1 valuation model ( Tranche 1 Performance Rights ); and

‒ RSM considered that the vesting conditions attached to the balance of the 1,200,000 Performance Rights proposed to be issued to Mr Arnett and the 900,000 Performance Rights proposed to be issued to Mr van Rooyen did not fall within the definition of ‘market condition’ under AASB Standard 2. Accordingly, RSM valued these Performance Rights using the Hoadley Trading & Investment Tools ESO2 valuation model ( Tranche 2 Performance Rights ).

• RSM have calculated the value of each Performance Right based on the following assumptions:

  • they have based the underlying value of each Share in the Company on the ASX closing price of $0.26 on 29 March 2021;

==> picture [81 x 68] intentionally omitted <==

21

==> picture [113 x 80] intentionally omitted <==

  • risk free rate of return – 0.66% (estimated, based on the 5-year Australian Government Bond rate); and

  • they used a volatility of the Share price of 100% based on the historical volatility of a basket of comparable companies over recent trading periods.

Any change in the variables applied in the valuation models adopted by RSM between the date of the valuation and the date the Performance Rights are granted would have an impact on their value.

Based on the assumptions, it is considered that the estimated average value of the Performance Rights to be granted to the Participating Directors, or their nominees, is:

  • $0.22 per Tranche 1 Performance Right; and

  • $0.26 per Tranche 2 Performance Right.

The issue of the Performance Rights will have a diluting effect on the percentage interest of existing Shareholders’ holdings if the Performance Rights vest and are exercised. The potential dilution effect on a fully diluted basis is summarised below:

Performance Rights Dilutionary effect
1,600,000 Performance 0.37%
Rights held by Mr Arnett, or
his nominee
1,200,000 Performance 0.28%
Rights held by Mr van
Rooyen, or his nominee

The above table assumes the current Share capital structure as at the date of this Notice and that no Shares are issued other than the Shares issued on exercise of the Performance Rights. The exercise of all of the Performance Rights held by Mr Arnett and Mr van Rooyen, or their nominees, will result in a total dilution of all other Shareholders' holdings of 0.65% on a fully diluted basis (assuming that all Performance Rights are exercised). The actual dilution will depend on the extent that additional Shares are issued by the Company.

The Performance Rights will be granted for nil consideration.

The Performance Rights will be issued on a date which will be no later than 3 years after the date of the AGM, unless otherwise extended by way of ASX granting a waiver to the Listing Rules.

  • A summary of the material terms of the Performance Rights Plan is set out in Appendix 1.

==> picture [81 x 68] intentionally omitted <==

22

==> picture [113 x 80] intentionally omitted <==

• No loans will be made by the Company in relation to the acquisition of Performance Rights or any shares issued under the Performance Rights Plan to the Participating Directors, or their nominees.

• Details of any securities issued under the Performance Rights Plan will be published in the annual report of the Company relating to a period in which they were issued, along with a statement that approval for the issue was obtained under Listing Rule 10.14.

  • Any additional persons who become entitled to participate in an issue of securities under the Performance Rights Plan after Resolutions 5 and 6 are approved and who are not named in the Notice of Meeting will not participate until approval is obtained under Listing Rule 10.14 (if approval is required under that Listing Rule).

  • A voting exclusion statement applies to each of Resolutions 5 and 6 as set out in the Notice of Meeting.

Recommendations of Directors

The Directors, other than Mr Michael Arnett, recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5. Mr Michael Arnett has an interest in the outcome of Resolution 5 and therefore declines to make any recommendation in relation to Resolution 5.

The Directors, other than Mr Brian van Rooyen, recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 6. Mr Brian van Rooyen has an interest in the outcome of Resolution 6 and therefore declines to make any recommendation in relation to Resolution 6.

The Chairman intends to vote all available proxies in favour of Resolutions 5 and 6.

6 Resolution 7 – Approval of amendment of terms of Performance Rights previously issued to Mr Salvatore Pietro Amico

Background

Mr Salvatore Pietro Amico currently holds 1,200,000 Performance Rights in the Company.

Resolution 7 seeks Shareholder approval to amend the terms of the 720,000 Performance Rights held by Mr Amico as set out in the table below ( Proposed Amendments ).

The terms of the Performance Rights held by Mr Amico will otherwise remain unchanged and will remain issued pursuant to the Performance Rights Plan, a summary of which is set out in Appendix 1. In addition, the Proposed Amendments the subject of this Resolution 7 do not affect the escrow arrangements with respect to Mr Amico’s Performance Rights as disclosed in the prospectus lodged by the Company with ASIC on 9 February 2021.

The rationale for the Proposed Amendments is to ensure Mr Amico continues to be incentivised to advance the development of the Company’s Baniaka Iron Ore Project and the Company believes the Proposed Amendments are justified given the delays and hindrance caused in 2020 by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Listing Rule 6.23.3

Listing Rule 6.23.3 stipulates that changes to option terms which have the effect of reducing the exercise price, increasing the exercise period or increasing the number of securities received on exercise are prohibited.

On 9 April 2021, the Company lodged an application for a waiver from Listing Rule 6.23.3 to enable it to extend the expiry date and the date for satisfaction of vesting conditions attached to Mr Amico’s Performance Rights (as set out above). The Proposed Amendments have the effect of increasing the expiry date of the relevant Performance Rights and therefore Listing Rule 6.23.3 applies. On 21 April 2021, ASX granted the waiver from Listing Rule 6.23.3 on the following conditions:

  • the Company obtains Shareholder approval for the Proposed Amendments; and

  • the Notice of Meeting seeking approval include explanatory information satisfactory to ASX including at a minimum, a clear explanation of the rationale for the Proposed Amendments.

Recommendations of Directors

The Directors, other than Mr Salvatore Pietro Amico, recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 7. Mr Salvatore Pietro Amico has an interest in the outcome of Resolution 7 and therefore declines to make any recommendation in relation to Resolution 7.

The Chairman intends to vote all available proxies in favour of Resolution 7.
