1 Under Listing Rule 4.7.3, an entity must lodge with ASX a completed Appendix 4G at the same time as it lodges its annual report with ASX.

Listing Rule 4.10.3 requires an entity that is included in the official list as an ASX Listing to include in its annual report either a corporate governance statement that meets the requirements of that rule or the URL of the page on its website where such a statement is located. The corporate governance statement must disclose the extent to which the entity has followed the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council during the reporting period. If the entity has not followed a recommendation for any part of the reporting period, its corporate governance statement must separately identify that recommendation and the period during which it was not followed and state its reasons for not following the recommendation and what (if any) alternative governance practices it adopted in lieu of the recommendation during that period.

Under Listing Rule 4.7.4, if an entity chooses to include its corporate governance statement on its website rather than in its annual report, it must lodge a copy of the corporate governance statement with ASX at the same time as it lodges its annual report with ASX. The corporate governance statement must be current as at the effective date specified in that statement for the purposes of rule 4.10.3.

2 “Corporate governance statement” is defined in Listing Rule 19.12 to mean the statement referred to in Listing Rule 4.10.3 which discloses the extent to which an entity has followed the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council during a particular reporting period.

3 Mark whichever option is correct and then complete the page number(s) of the annual report, or the URL of the web page, where the entity’s corporate governance statement can be found.

Introduction

The Board of Iluka Resources Limited ( Board ) is committed to conducting Iluka’s business in accordance with the highest standards of corporate governance to create and deliver value for Iluka’s shareholders. The Board has established a corporate governance framework, including corporate governance policies, procedures, charters and codes to support this commitment. The framework is reviewed regularly and revised in response to changes in law, developments in corporate governance and changes to Iluka’s business. Copies of these policies, procedures, charters and codes are available on the governance page of Iluka’s website, www.iluka.com, and are signposted throughout this document where relevant.

As a listed entity, Iluka must comply with Australian laws including the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) ( Corporations Act ) and the Australian Securities Exchange Listing Rules ( ASX Listing Rules ), and is required to report against the 3[rd] edition of the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Principles and Recommendations ( ASX Principles ). The Board considers that throughout 2017 it complied with the ASX Principles and this Corporate Governance Statement ( Statement ) reports on the corporate governance framework and practices adopted by Iluka.

The Board has a commitment to ongoing improvement of its governance practices. This year, a range of improvements to the Board’s work and effectiveness were implemented, including:

restructuring agendas to ensure that the Board’s attention is primarily focussed on strategic matters impacting Iluka’s business;
renaming the Nominations Committee as the Nominations and Governance Committee and enhancing its charter to expressly include governance responsibilities;
reviewing and updating all Board and Committee Charters, including developing a formal Director Conflicts of Interest Policy (annexed to the Board Charter); and
approving a Non-executive Director Minimum Shareholding Policy.

The Board also commissioned an external review of the performance of the Board, Board committees and individual directors. The review concluded that overall the Iluka Board continued to perform its role well and contained a number of recommendations to take effectiveness to the next level. These will be implemented in 2018.

2.3 Composition and skills of the Board

The Board comprises five independent, non-executive directors and the Managing Director.

The Board and Nominations and Governance Committee will continue to monitor the skills and experience of the Board to identify opportunities for director training and development and to identify skills gaps that may be addressed through future Board appointments.

2.4 Independence of directors

The Board recognises the importance of ensuring that directors are free from interests and relationships that might, or might reasonably be perceived to, materially influence a director’s capacity to bring an independent judgement to bear on issues before the Board and to act in the best interests of Iluka and its shareholders generally.

Accordingly, the Board has adopted guidelines, set out in the Board Charter, which are used to determine the independence of directors and which reflect the definition of independence listed in Box 2.3 of the ASX Principles.

In accordance with these guidelines, the Board generally considers a director to be independent if he or she is not a member of management and:

is not a substantial shareholder of Iluka or an officer of, or otherwise associated with, a substantial shareholder of Iluka;
is not employed, or been previously employed, in an executive capacity by Iluka or another Group member, or where they were previously employed in such a capacity, there has been a period of at least three years between ceasing such employment and serving on the Board;
is not, and has not been within the last three years a partner, director or senior employee of a provider of material professional services to Iluka or another Group member;
is not, and has not been within the last three years, in a material business relationship (e.g. as a supplier or customer) with Iluka or another Group member, or an officer of or otherwise associated with someone with such a relationship;
has no material contractual relationship with Iluka or another Group member other than as a director of Iluka;
does not have close family times with any person who falls within any of the categories described above;
has not served on the Board for a period that his or her independence may have been compromised; and
is free from any interest, position, association or relationship that might influence, or reasonably be perceived to influence, in a material respect his or her capacity to bring an independent judgement to bear on issues before the Board and to act in the best interests of Iluka and its shareholders generally.

The Board considers the materiality of a director’s interests, position, association or relationship on a case-by-case basis, having regard to both quantitative and qualitative principles. Having considered all relevant relationships currently existing, the Board has determined that there are no relationships which fall into this category.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT 2017

==> picture [65 x 47] intentionally omitted <==

The Board also has regard to length of tenure when assessing whether a director is, or continues to be, independent. The Board is satisfied that the length of tenure of its current directors does not call into question their independence.

Directors also have an ongoing responsibility to disclose any actual or potential transactions or interests that may create a conflict of interest. They may also be required to take steps to remove any conflict of interest. If a director cannot or will not remove a conflict of interest, then the director must be absent from the room when discussion and/or voting occurs on matters to which the conflict relates.

The Board has reviewed the independence of its directors and considers that the Chairman and each non-executive director are independent.

2.5 Access to independent advice

Under the Board Charter, directors may seek independent professional advice at Iluka’s expense on any matter connected with the discharge of their responsibilities with the prior written approval of the Chairman.

2.6 Access to Board materials and information

Under the Deed of Indemnity, Insurance and Access, directors have access to inspect the Company’s records which have been prepared during or relate to the director’s tenure or discharge of duties as a director in respect of the Company.

2.7 Director appointment, election and re-election

All new non-executive directors are required to sign a letter of appointment that sets out the terms and conditions of their appointment, including: role and responsibilities; time commitments envisaged; disclosure of interests; dealing in Iluka’s securities; and the requirement to participate in a performance evaluation process.

Under Iluka’s Constitution, with the exception of the Managing Director, directors may not hold office without re-election beyond the third Annual General Meeting following their election or most recent re-election.

When a director candidate stands for election or re-election at a meeting of shareholders, Iluka provides shareholders with all material information in its possession relevant to a decision on whether or not to elect or re-elect that director in the relevant Notice of Meeting.

2.8 Director selection and succession planning

The Board renewal process is overseen by the Nominations and Governance Committee and involves regularly reviewing the composition of the Board to ensure that the directors have an appropriate mix of skills, expertise, experience and backgrounds relevant to the management of Iluka.

2.9 Director induction and continuing education

The Nominations and Governance Committee is responsible for ensuring that new directors are provided with a comprehensive induction programme (including business briefings by management and site visits).

The Board encourages directors to continue their education and maintain the skills required to discharge their duties effectively by providing professional development opportunities. Iluka meets reasonable costs of continuing director education.

As part of Board professional development, in conjunction with Board and committee meetings, the Board participated in a number of briefings during 2017, which provided an overview of:

the organisation or a specific function;
the market environment in which Iluka operates;
risks and opportunities for Iluka; and

Performance evaluation and remuneration

Relevant policies and charters:

4.1 Performance evaluation

Each year, performance evaluations of the Board, its committees and individual directors are undertaken. The Nominations and Governance Committee assists the Board in relation to the conduct of performance evaluations and development and implementation of plans for identifying, assessing and enhancing director competencies. External facilitators may be engaged to assist with the review of the Board, its committees and individual directors.

The Board, Audit and Risk Committee and People and Performance Committee also conduct an annual self-assessment of their performance, which serves to identify strengths, weaknesses and areas for improvement. The completed assessments are taken into account by the Board and each respective committee in determining performance improvements for the following year.

In accordance with this process, the Board, through the assistance of an external facilitator, evaluated the performance of its directors, itself and each committee in late 2017.

The People and Performance Committee also assists the Board with evaluating the performance of the Managing Director. The People and Performance Committee provides feedback regarding the Managing Director’s performance in relation to key performance measures to the Chairman of the Board, who is responsible for conducting the Managing Director’s performance review.

Twice yearly, the Managing Director undertakes a review of the performance of each senior executive against individual objectives and deliverables linked to the corporate plan that were agreed at the beginning of the performance period. These personal objectives relate to key areas of performance over which the individual has accountability and influence. The process for conducting these reviews is covered on pages 58 to 59 of the Annual Report. The performance reviews of the Managing Director and senior executives were conducted in August and at the end of the performance period in accordance with this process.

Iluka seeks to attract and retain the best people while building and maintaining a diverse, sustainable and high achieving workforce. To achieve the objective, Iluka is committed to:

promoting awareness of diversity within Iluka;
integrating workplace diversity principles into company activities;
supporting skills development, aligned to the needs of Iluka, in communities in which Iluka operates;
attracting, developing and retaining more employees across various age ranges, people with disability, women and indigenous people; and
creating a flexible workplace culture which assists employees to balance their responsibilities.

To meet these objectives, Iluka has established a diversity framework under its Diversity Standard, as described in the diagram below:

6.3 Continuous disclosure and communications with shareholders

Iluka is committed to ensuring that shareholders and the market are kept fully and regularly informed of information and major developments concerning Iluka. To achieve this, Iluka has developed a Continuous Disclosure and Market Communications Policy, which establishes procedures to ensure that directors and management fulfil their obligations under the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules in relation to the timely disclosure of pricesensitive information.

The policy establishes and outlines the role of Disclosure Officers who report to the Managing Director on continuous disclosure matters, being the Company Secretary, CFO and the General Manager Investor Relations.

The Disclosure Officers are responsible for ensuring that there is an adequate system in place for receiving and considering any potentially market sensitive information which is reported to them, and advising the Managing Director in relation to the disclosure of that information to the ASX where necessary.

Iluka communicates with shareholders through releases to the ASX, Iluka’s website, information distributed direct to shareholders and the general meetings of shareholders. To ensure that security holders have the opportunity to participate at meetings of members:

at the Annual General Meeting, shareholders elect the directors and have the opportunity to express their views, ask questions about company business and vote on items of business for resolution by shareholders; and
PricewaterhouseCoopers, Iluka’s external auditor, attends each Annual General Meeting and is available to answer shareholder questions about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the audit report.

Iluka has also established an investor relations programme to facilitate effective two-way communication with investors. In addition to providing information on the Iluka website about Iluka and its governance, this programme includes an “Investor Relations Guide”, and comprehensive information (including briefing papers and presentations on Iluka’s website) which is designed for those wishing to gain an understanding of the main elements of Iluka, its assets, industry context and basis for shareholder value generation. In particular, information available includes:

Iluka’s investment proposition, company and shareholder alignment and capital management framework;
company outline, resource base and operations;

mineral sands industry overview;
Iluka’s sales and marketing strategy and customer base;
historical financials and company presentations;
latest ASX releases; and
calendar of events.

Shareholders are also able to send and receive communications to/from Iluka and its share registry, Computershare Investor Services Pty Limited electronically. Shareholders can elect to receive email notifications of major disclosures by advising Computershare. In addition, Iluka has webcast/teleconference facilities associated with full and half year results and any major business presentations. Transcripts of results presentations and major business presentations are placed on the ASX announcements platform and on the Iluka website as soon as practicable after the conclusion of such events.

6.4 Dealing in shares

The Board believes it is in the best interests of shareholders for directors and employees to own shares in Iluka, subject to strict controls and guidelines on share trading.

Iluka has in place a Securities Trading Policy that applies to Iluka’s directors and employees (and their “connected persons”). The policy prohibits directors and employees from trading in Iluka’s securities if they are in possession of price-sensitive information that is not generally available to the market. It also prohibits dealings by directors and certain employees during defined “closed periods” except where clearance has been granted for exceptional circumstances or the dealing falls within an excluded category under the policy.

Closed periods under the policy include:

the end of the financial year; and
the end of a half financial year,

to the time when two business days have elapsed after the release of the annual or half yearly results respectively. Outside of these closed periods and prior to any proposed trade, directors and certain employees must seek approval prior to trading in Iluka’s securities.

Directors and employees are also restricted from engaging in short-term trading of Iluka’s securities and from hedging their securities unless those securities have fully vested and are no longer subject to restrictions. Key management personnel must not at any time enter into a transaction that involves using Iluka’s securities as collateral in any financial transaction, including margin lending arrangements.
