Explanatory Statement

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of Shareholders in relation to the business to be conducted at the Annual General Meeting.

The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide Shareholders with all information known to the Company which is material to a decision on how to vote on the Resolutions in the accompanying Notice of Annual General Meeting.

This Explanatory Statement should be read in conjunction with the Notice of Annual General Meeting. Capitalised terms in this Explanatory Statement are defined in the Glossary or otherwise in the Explanatory Statement.

1. Annual Financial Report

The Corporations Act requires the Directors’ report, auditor’s report, and the financial statements of the Company for the year ended 28 February 2021 to be tabled at the Annual General Meeting. These reports are contained in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report.

Neither the Corporations Act nor the Company’s constitution requires a vote of Shareholders on the Reports or Financial Statements. However, Shareholders will be given reasonable opportunity to raise questions on the reports and ask questions of the Company’s auditor.

The Company advises that a copy of its 2021 Annual Report, is available to download at the website address, www.jupitermines.com.

2. Resolution 1: Adoption of Remuneration Report

2.1 Background

The Remuneration Report is set out in the Directors’ Report in the Company's 2021 Annual - - Report which is available at https://www.jupitermines.com/investor relations/reports/annual reports. The Remuneration Report sets out the remuneration arrangements for Directors and Key Management Personnel of the Company. The Chairman will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders to ask questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report.

2.2

Voting on Remuneration Report

The Corporations Act requires the Company to put a resolution to Shareholders that the Remuneration Report be adopted. 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.

In accordance with Division 9 of Part 2G.2 of the Corporations Act, if 25% or more of votes that are cast are voted against the adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive Annual General Meetings, Shareholders will be required to vote at the second of those Annual General Meetings on a resolution (a “spill resolution”) that another meeting be held within 90 days at which all of the Company’s directors (other than the managing director) must go up for reelection.

At the date of this Notice, the position of managing director is effectively performed by the Company’s chief executive officer (who is also a Director), Mr Priyank Thapliyal.

At the 2020 annual general meeting, the votes against the remuneration report were more than 25% of the votes cast on the resolution (the first strike). If 25% or more of the votes that are cast on Resolution 1 are voted against the adoption of the 2021 Remuneration Report (the second strike), then Resolution 2 ( Spill Resolution ) will be put to Shareholders. If the Spill Resolution passes (with 50% or more of eligible votes cast) another meeting of Shareholders will be held (the Spill Meeting) to re-elect the board of the Company.

The Company encourages all Shareholders to cast their votes FOR Resolution 1 (Adoption of the Remuneration Report).

axv 10034089_1

2.3 Voting exclusions

The Company will disregard any votes cast on this Resolution 1 by or on behalf of members of Key Management Personnel whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report and any closely related parties of those persons.

Key Management Personnel of the Company are the Directors and those other persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company, directly or indirectly. The Remuneration Report identifies the Company’s Key Management Personnel for the financial year ended 2021. Their closely related parties are defined by the Corporations Act and include certain of their family members, dependants and companies they control.

If you appoint the Chairman as your proxy and have not directed him how to vote, you are expressly authorising the Chairman to cast your undirected proxy on this Resolution 1 in accordance with his stated intentions. The Chairman intends to vote all undirected proxies FOR this Resolution 1.

If you appoint any other member of the Board, a member of senior management who is named in the Remuneration Report, or their closely related parties as your proxy, they will not be able to vote your proxy on this resolution unless you have directed them how to vote.

3. Resolution 2: Spill Resolution

3.1

Subject to section 250W(4) of the Corporations Act, if the Company receives a second strike, then the Spill Resolution will be put to Shareholders.

The vacating Directors are eligible for re-election at the Spill Meeting. Mr Priyank Thapliyal, the chief executive officer of the Company, is performing the duty of the Managing Director, and is not required to stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting.

3.2

Voting exclusions

The Company will disregard any votes cast on this Resolution 2 by or on behalf of members of Key Management Personnel whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report and any closely related parties of those persons.

The Chairman intends to vote all undirected proxies AGAINST this Resolution 2 if it is required to be put to a vote.

axv 10034089_1

4. Resolution 3: Re-election of Director – Mr Paul Murray

In accordance with the Listing Rules and clause 6.3(b) of the Constitution, at every Annual General Meeting, one third of the Directors for the time being must retire from office and are eligible for re-election. The Directors to retire are:

  • (a) those who have been in office for 3 years since their appointment or last re-appointment; (b) those who have been longest in office since their appointment or last re-appointment; or

  • (c) if the Directors have been in office for an equal length of time, by agreement.

Mr Paul Murray retires by rotation and offers himself for re-election as a Director.

Mr Murray is a founding director of Jupiter Mines Limited and was Chairman at the time of formation in August 2003. Paul was appointed as a Director of the Company on 20 August 2003. He has served continuously since that time as Chairman of both the Audit Committee and the Remuneration and Nomination Committee.

Apart from academic qualifications which are relevant to his roles, Paul has held positions on boards of a number of ASX listed companies. Mining experience includes exploration for and mining of tin in the New England district of NSW and service on the boards of successful Australian oil and gas companies, Basin Oil NL and Reef Oil NL.

The Directors (other than Mr Paul Murray) recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the re-election of Mr Paul Murray.

5. Resolution 4: Re-election of Director – Mr Andrew Bell

In accordance with the Listing Rules and clause 6.3(b) of the Constitution, at every Annual General Meeting, one third of the Directors for the time being must retire from office and are eligible for re-election. The Directors to retire are:

  • (a) those who have been in office for 3 years since their appointment or last re-appointment;

  • (b) those who have been longest in office since their appointment or last re-appointment; or

  • (c) if the Directors have been in office for an equal length of time, by agreement.

  • Mr Andrew Bell retires by rotation and offers himself for re-election as a Director.

Mr Bell was appointed as a Director of the Company on 4 June 2008.

Mr Bell is Chairman of Red Rock Resources plc, and Power Metal Resources plc, being companies listed on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange Ltd. He was a natural resources analyst in London in the 1970s, then specialised in investment and investment banking covering the Asia region.

He has been involved in the resource and mining sectors in Asia since the 1990s and has served on the Boards of a number of listed resource companies.

The Directors (other than Mr Andrew Bell) recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the re-election of Mr Andrew Bell.

6. Resolution 5: Election of Shareholder Nominee Director – Mr Peter North

In accordance with clause 6.2 of the Company’s Constitution and section 249N of the Corporations Act, Ntsimbintle Holdings (Pty) Limited ( Ntsimbintle ), being a member of the Company holding more than 5% of the voting shares in the Company , nominated Mr Peter Michael North as a candidate for election as a Director of the Company. As such, the Company

11

axv 10034089_1

is required to put Resolution 5 to Shareholders to enable them to consider the election of Mr North as a director of the Company.

Mr North co-founded Safika Resources (Pty) Limited ( Safika ) in 2002 and was involved in the creation of Ntsimbintle. Both Safika and Ntsimbintle have a substantial holder interest in the Company. He led negotiations with Samancor that culminated in a shareholding in Hotazel Manganese Mines and the formation of the joint venture with Pallinghurst Resources which established the Tshipi Mine. Mr North is an alternate director of Safika.

Ntsimbintle also owns 51% of Mokala manganese mine, which is also located in the Kalahari manganese field where the Tshipi mine is located.

Mr North has 16 years corporate finance experience with Rand Merchant Bank and QuestCo in South Africa and is a qualified Mining Engineer.

Mr North completed his Master of Business Administration (Wits Business School). Mr North is a resident of New Zealand.

If Mr North is elected, the Board considers Mr North will not be an independent director.

One of the key pillars of Jupiter’s overall strategy is to increase its underlying stake in Tshipi, and to do so on arm’s length terms with its shareholder partner in the Tshipi Mine. The presence of a Safika/Ntsimbintle associate on the Jupiter Board would inhibit and constrain discussion on the matter, and potentially prejudice the ability to negotiate effectively in the interests of all Jupiter Shareholders.

Further, Ntsimbintle has board representation at Tshipi. As Jupiter’s exclusive focus is its investment in Tshipi, Ntsimbintle effectively already have representation.

Given Mr North’s long history with Ntsimbintle and Safika, the Board considers that his appointment would create a conflict of interest. As such, the Directors, other than Mr Hans Mende recommend that Shareholders vote against of the election of Mr Peter North.

Mr Mende supports the election of Mr Peter North and recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of the election of Mr Peter North.

7. Resolution 6: Election of Shareholder Nominee Director – Mr William (Scott) Winter

In accordance with clause 6.2 of the Company’s Constitution and section 249N of the Corporations Act, AMCI Group LLC, being a member of the Company holding more than 5% of the voting shares in the Company , nominated Mr William (Scott) Winter as a candidate for election as a Director of the Company. As such, the Company is required to put Resolution 6 to Shareholders to enable them to consider the election of Mr Winter as a director of the Company.

Mr Winter led the aggregation of Australian and African business units and the formation of the Global Surface contract mining business with over 40 projects for Perenti, successful turnaround of the African business unit and growth of the Australian business unit into the east coast.

Previous to Perenti, Mr Winter was Chief Operating Officer of Minerals Resources Ltd supporting the selldown and subsequent integration of its Wodgina Lithium mine with Albermarle.

Mr Winter has completed his Master of Business Administration (Melbourne Business School), Graduate Diploma in Applied Finance and Investment, and Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) in Mining.

Mr Winter is a resident of Australia and does not have any material personal interest in any matters relating to the affairs of the Company.

12

axv 10034089_1

The Directors, other than Mr Hans Mende, have adopted a neutral position on the election of Mr Winter and recommend that Shareholders abstain from voting on his election.
