The Chair intends to put all resolutions set out in this Notice of Meeting to a poll. Upon a poll, every Shareholder who is present in person or by proxy, representative or attorney will have one vote for each Share held by that Shareholder.

Determination of entitlement to attend and vote

For the purposes of determining an entitlement to vote at the Meeting, Shares will be taken to be held by the persons who are registered as Shareholders at 6:30pm (Adelaide, Australia time) on Monday, 25 May 2026.

Proxies

A Shareholder entitled to attend the virtual Meeting and vote is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote for the Shareholder at the virtual Meeting. A proxy need not be a Shareholder. If the Shareholder is entitled to cast two or more votes at the virtual Meeting, the Shareholder may appoint two proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes which each proxy is appointed to exercise. A form of proxy accompanies this Notice.

To record a valid vote, a Shareholder will need to take the following steps:

  • cast the Shareholder’s vote online by visiting https://investor.automic.com.au/#/loginsah or, if using a mobile device, by scanning the QR code on the Shareholder’s Proxy Form and entering the Shareholder’s registered postcode; or
  • complete and lodge a validly completed and signed paper Proxy Form at the Share Registry, Automic Registry Services:

so that it is received no later than 3:30pm (Adelaide, Australia time) on Monday, 25 May 2026.

A proxy has the same rights as a Shareholder to speak using the online platform at the virtual Meeting, to vote (but only to the extent allowed by the appointment) and to join in a demand for a poll.

Where a Shareholder appoints an attorney to act on his/her behalf at the Meeting or a proxy form is signed under power of attorney, such appointment must be made by a duly executed power of


attorney. The power of attorney (or a certified copy) must be given to Automic Registry Services, the Share Registry, by 3:30pm (Adelaide, Australia time) on Monday, 25 May 2026, unless it has previously been provided.

Where more than one joint holder votes, the vote of the holder whose name appears first in the register of Shareholders shall be accepted to the exclusion of the others.

The Company encourages all Shareholders who submit proxies to direct their proxy whether to vote for or against, or to abstain from voting on, each Resolution.

The Chair of the Meeting intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of all of the Resolutions.

If a Shareholder appoints the Chair as their proxy, expressly or by default, and they do not direct the Chair on how to vote on a Resolution, by completing and returning the Proxy Form, they will be expressly authorising the Chair to exercise the proxy and vote as the Chair sees fit on a Resolution.

Corporate Representatives

A body corporate which is a shareholder or which has been appointed as a proxy may appoint an individual to act as its representative at the Meeting. The appointment must comply with the requirements of section 250D of the Corporations Act. The representative should provide the Share Registry with evidence of his or her appointment prior to the Meeting, including any authority under which it is signed, unless it has previously been provided to and been accepted by the share registry. If such evidence is not received prior to the commencement of the Meeting, then the individual will not be permitted to act as the shareholder's representative or representative of the shareholder's proxy.

Questions from Shareholders

You may ask questions at the Meeting about any of the Resolutions being considered at the Meeting. Shareholders and proxyholders will be given an opportunity to ask questions at the Meeting through the online platform accessible at investor.automic.com.au. To ensure all Shareholders are given a reasonable opportunity to participate, Shareholders will be limited to asking two questions per item of business, or one question and one follow-up comment. The Chair retains ultimate discretion to ensure equitable participation by all Shareholders.

The Company will endeavour to answer as many of the more frequently raised relevant questions as possible during the course of the Meeting. However, there may not be sufficient time available at the Meeting to address all of the questions raised. Please note that individual responses will not be sent to Shareholders.

In addition, Shareholders may submit written questions prior to the Meeting. If you would like to ask a question, please email your question to [email protected]. To allow time to collate questions and prepare answers, you must submit any questions by 5.00pm (Adelaide, Australia time) on Wednesday, 20 May 2026.

  1. Explanatory Memorandum

The Explanatory Memorandum accompanying this Notice of Annual General Meeting is incorporated in and comprises part of this Notice of Annual General Meeting and should be read in conjunction with this Notice of Annual General Meeting.

Shareholders are specifically referred to the Glossary in the Explanatory Memorandum which contains definitions of capitalised terms used in both this Notice of Annual General Meeting and the Explanatory Memorandum.

Other than the information set out in this Explanatory Memorandum, the Directors believe that there is no other information that could reasonably be required by shareholders to consider Resolutions 1 to 4 (inclusive).

  1. Voting Exclusion Statements

Resolution 1

A vote on Resolution 1 must not be cast (in any capacity) by or on behalf of any of the following persons:

(i) a member of the Key Management Personnel details of whose remuneration are included in the Remuneration Report; or
(ii) a Closely Related Party of such a member.

However, a person described above may cast a vote on Resolution 1 as a proxy if the vote is not cast on behalf of a person described above and either:

(i) the person is appointed as a proxy by writing that specifies the way the proxy is to vote on the resolution; or
(ii) the person is the chair of the meeting and the appointment of the chair as proxy:

  • does not specify the way the proxy is to vote on the resolution; and
  • 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 for the Company or, if the Company is part of a consolidated entity, for the entity.

  • RESOLUTION 1: ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT

The Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2025 contains a Remuneration Report which sets out the remuneration policy of the Company.

An electronic copy of the Annual Report is available to download or view on the Company's website at www.highfieldresources.com.au. The Annual Report has also been sent by post to those shareholders who have previously elected to receive a hard copy. In addition, the Company has also enabled online voting, details of which are explained on the proxy form.


Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act requires that a resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report be put to the vote of the Company. Shareholders should note that the vote on Resolution 1 is advisory only and, subject to the matters outlined below, will not bind the Company or the Directors. However, the Board will take the outcome of the vote into consideration when reviewing the Company's remuneration policy.

Section 250R(4) of the Corporations Act prohibits a vote on this resolution being cast (in any capacity) by or on behalf of any of the following persons:

(a) a member of the Key Management Personnel details of whose remuneration are included in the Remuneration Report; or
(b) a Closely Related Party of such a member.

However, under section 250R(5) of the Corporations Act a person described above may cast a vote on Resolution 1 as a proxy if the vote is not cast on behalf of a person described above and either:

(a) the person is appointed as a proxy by writing that specifies the way the proxy is to vote on the resolution; or
(b) the person is the chair of the meeting and the appointment of the chair as proxy:

(i) does not specify the way the proxy is to vote on the resolution; and
(ii) 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 for the Company or, if the Company is part of a consolidated entity, for the entity.

Please note that if the chair of the meeting is your proxy (or becomes your proxy by default), you expressly authorise the chair to exercise your proxy on Resolution 1 even though it is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the Key Management Personnel for the Company, which includes the chair. If you appoint the chair as your proxy you can direct the chair to vote for or against or abstain from voting on Resolution 1 by marking the appropriate box on the proxy form.

Resolution 1 is an advisory resolution.

The chair intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1.

Please also note that under sections 250U and 250V of the Corporations Act, if at two consecutive annual general meetings of a listed company at least 25% of votes cast on a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted are against adoption of the report, at the second of these annual general meetings there must be put to the vote a resolution that another meeting be held within 90 days at which all directors (except the managing director) who were directors at the date the remuneration report was approved at the second annual general meeting must stand for re-election. So, in summary, shareholders will be entitled to vote in favour of holding a general meeting to re-elect the Board if the Remuneration Report receives 'two strikes'. The Remuneration Report did not receive a 'first strike' at the Company's last annual general meeting.

4. RESOLUTION 2: ELECTION OF MR CARLES ALEMÁN AS DIRECTOR

Clause 12 of the Constitution provides that a person may be appointed as a Director at a general meeting if he or she has at least 35 business days before the meeting served on the Company a

Page 6


notice of nomination to be a Director. Mr Carles Alemán has served on the Company a notice of nomination to be a Director pursuant to clause 12 of the Constitution. Accordingly, Mr Alemán stands for election as a Director. Mr Alemán was appointed to the Highfield Board on 23 September 2025 to fill a casual vacancy, and accordingly sits for election at the next Annual General Meeting following that date.

A resume for Mr Alemán follows:

Mr Carles Alemán
Executive Director

Mr Alemán is a well-respected professional with over 30 years' commercial of international experience and leadership in chemical and mining industries. He has held senior positions at BASF, CIBA-GEIGY, and Pymag-Curtin and was the President of ICL Iberia (Spain & Portugal) during the period from 2017 to 2021 when he managed a project of €600+ million Capex comprising mining operations, industrial processing, and logistics and port infrastructure as well as a new 5km ramp to the mine. He holds degrees in Business Sciences, Chemistry and Pharmacy as well as Masters in Chemistry. In addition, he holds an MBA from ESADE Business School in Barcelona.

In the three years immediately before the end of the financial year, Mr Alemán did not hold any other listed company directorships.

Resolution 2 is an ordinary resolution.

The Directors (with Mr Alemán abstaining) recommend that shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

The chair intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 2.

5. RESOLUTION 3: APPROVAL OF 10% PLACEMENT FACILITY

5.1 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.

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% (10% Placement Facility).

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.

Resolution 3 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. The exact number of Equity Securities which may be issued under the 10% Placement Facility will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to section 5.2(c)).

Page 7


If Resolution 3 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 3 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the 10% Placement Facility and will remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing Equity Securities without shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.

5.2 Description of Listing Rule 7.1A

(a) Shareholder approval

The ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility is subject to shareholder approval by way of a special resolution at an annual general meeting.

(b) Equity Securities

Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility must be in the same class as an existing quoted class of Equity Securities of the Company.

The Company, as at the date of the Notice, has only the following class of quoted Equity Securities on issue:

  • ordinary shares quoted on ASX

(c) Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility

Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that eligible entities which have obtained shareholder approval at an annual general meeting may, during the period of the approval, issue or agree to issue, during the 10% Placement Period (refer to section 5.2(f)), a number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:

$$
(A \times D) - E
$$

Where:

A is 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 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

  • the issue of, or agreement to issue, the convertible securities was approved, or taken under the Listing Rules

Page 8


to have been approved, under Listing Rule 7.1 or Listing Rule 7.4;

  • plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period under an agreement to issue securities within Listing 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 Listing Rule 7.4;

  • plus the number of any other fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period with approval under Listing Rule 7.1 or 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.

(Note that A 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 has not been subsequently approved by the holders of its ordinary securities under Listing Rule 7.4.

(Note that relevant period has the same meaning in Listing Rule 7.1, namely:

  • if the entity has been admitted to the official list for 12 months or more, the 12 month period immediately preceding the date of the issue or agreement; or
  • if the entity has been admitted to the official list for less than 12 months, the period from the date the entity was admitted to the official list to the date immediately preceding the date of the issue or agreement.)

(d) Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A

The ability of an entity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A is in addition to the entity's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

At the date of this Notice, the Company has on issue 474,077,043 quoted ordinary shares and therefore has a capacity to issue:

(i) 71,111,556 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1; and
(ii) subject to shareholder approval being obtained under Resolution 8, 47,407,704 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.

Page 9


The actual number of Equity Securities that the Company will have capacity to issue under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated at the date of issue of the Equity Securities in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to section 5.2(c)).

(e) Minimum Issue Price

The Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 must be issued for a cash consideration per security which is not less than 75% of the VWAP of Equity Securities in the same 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 referred to in section 5.2(e)(i), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

(f) 10% Placement Period

Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under Listing Rule 7.1A is valid from the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained and expires on the first to occur of:

(i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained;
(ii) the time and date of the entity's next annual general meeting; and
(iii) the time and date of the approval by shareholders of a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking),

(10% Placement Period).

5.3 Listing Rule 7.1A

The effect of Resolution 3 will be to allow the Directors to issue the Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the 10% Placement Period in addition to using the Company's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 3 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of at least 75% of the votes cast by shareholders entitled to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate shareholder, by a corporate representative) on the Resolution.

5.4 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, information is provided in relation to the approval of the 10% Placement Facility as follows to the extent that such information is not disclosed elsewhere in this Explanatory Memorandum:

(a) The Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for cash consideration. In such circumstances, the Company intends to use the funds raised towards an acquisition of new assets or investments (including expense associated with such acquisition) and/or general working capital.

Page 10


(b) There is a risk that:

(i) the market price for the Company's Equity Securities in the same class may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than on the date of the Meeting; 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 in the same class on the issue date,

which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the Equity Securities.

The table below shows the risk of voting dilution of existing shareholders on the basis of the current market price of shares and the current number of ordinary shares for variable 'A' calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 as at the date of this Notice.

The table also shows:

(i) two examples where variable 'A' has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable 'A' is based on the number of ordinary shares the Company has on issue. The number of ordinary shares on issue may increase as a result of issues of ordinary shares that do not require shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue) or future specific placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future shareholders' meeting; and
(i) two examples of where the issue price of ordinary shares has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.

Variable 'A' in formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 Issue Price
$0.075
50% decrease in issue price $0.15
issue price $0.30
100% increase in issue price
Current Variable 'A' 10% voting dilution 47,407,704 shares 47,407,704 shares 47,407,704 shares
Funds raised $616,300 $1,232,600 $2,465,201
50% increase in current Variable 'A' 10% voting dilution 71,111,556 shares 71,111,556 shares 71,111,556 shares
Funds raised $924,450 $1,848,900 $3,697,801
100% increase in current Variable 'A' 10% voting dilution 94,815,408 shares 94,815,408 shares 94,815,408 shares
Funds raised $1,232,600 $2,465,201 $4,930,401

The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

  • The Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility.
  • No current options are exercised into shares before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities.
  • 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%.
  • The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular shareholder by reason of placements pursuant to the 10% Placement Facility, based on that shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.
  • The table shows only the effect of issues of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A and no other issues of Equity Securities.
  • The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of shares.
  • The issue price is $0.026, being the closing price of the shares on ASX on 15 April 2026.

(c) The Company’s allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Facility. The identity of the allottees of Equity Securities and the number of Equity Securities allotted to each will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to factors including, but not limited to, the following:

(i) the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company including, but not limited to, rights issue or other issue in which the existing security holders can participate;
(ii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;
(iii) the financial situation and solvency of the Company; and
(iv) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).

The allottees under the 10% Placement Facility have not been determined as at the date of this Notice but may include existing substantial shareholders (subject to shareholder approval, if required) and/or new shareholders who are not related parties or associates of a related party of the Company.

(d) The Company previously obtained shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at its 2025 Annual General Meeting and has not issued or agreed to issue any Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months preceding the date of this Meeting.

(e) At the time of dispatching this Notice, the Company is not proposing to make an issue of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.2.

Page 12


(f) As at the date of this Notice, the Company does not yet know, nor has it formed an intention in relation to how it will decide, which parties it may approach to participate in any issue that may ultimately be made. Therefore, no Shareholders will be excluded from voting on Resolution 3 as no Shareholder has an interest in the outcome of the Resolution that is potentially different from that of any other Shareholder.

Resolution 3 is a special resolution.

The Directors recommend that shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.

The chair intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 3.

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

APPOINTMENT OF SECOND PROXY

You may appoint up to two proxies. If you appoint two proxies, you should complete two separate Proxy Voting Forms and specify the percentage or number each proxy may exercise.
