Voting by Proxy

The Corporations Act now places certain restrictions on the ability of KMP and their Closely Related Parties to vote on resolutions connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of the Company’s KMP. For those reasons, Shareholders who intend to vote by proxy should carefully consider the identity of their proxy and consider appointing someone other than one of the Company’s KMP as such proxies may not be able to vote undirected proxies.

If you appoint the Chairman as your proxy by marking the box at STEP 1 on the Proxy Form, then you are providing express authorisation for the Chairman to vote on all Resolutions in accordance with his intentions as set out in this Notice and the Proxy Form (except where you have indicated a different voting intention by marking the voting boxes at STEP 2 on the Proxy Form).

This express authorisation acknowledges that the Chairman may exercise your proxy in relation to Resolutions 1 and 3 to 10 even though they are connected with remuneration of a member of KMP and Resolution 1 is a resolution in respect of which the Chairman of the meeting has an interest. Votes cast by the Chairman on Resolutions 1 and 3 to 10, other than as an authorised proxy holder will be disregarded because of his interest in the outcome of the Resolutions.

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

Dated this 25[th] day of October 2021.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of the Shareholders of the Company in connection with the business to be conducted at the Annual General Meeting to be held virtually via webcast at 11 am (Sydney Time) on Thursday 25 November 2021.

The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions in the Notice of Meeting.

IMPORTANT: Attendance

There will not be physical attendance at the Annual General Meeting. The Annual General Meeting will be held virtually via a webinar conferencing facility. If you are a shareholder that wishes to attend and participate in the meeting, please register in advance to attend the meeting. Details on how to attend the meeting will be available on the Company’s website www.kingstonresources.com.au. Shareholders are strongly encouraged to lodge a completed proxy form with the Company in accordance with the instructions in the Explanatory Statement to lodge their vote. Shareholders will be able to ask questions and electronically record their vote at the Annual General Meeting.

Financial Statements and Reports

The Corporations Act requires the Company to place its Financial Report, Directors' Report and Auditor's Report for the last financial year before the Annual General Meeting. No resolution is required for this Item, but Shareholders will be given a reasonable opportunity to ask questions and to make comments on the reports and the management and performance of the Company.

The Company’s Auditor, Hall Chadwick, will be present at the meeting and Shareholders will be given the opportunity to ask the Auditor questions about the conduct of the audit, the preparation and content of the Auditor's Report, the accounting policies adopted by the Company and the independence of the Auditor.

The Company’s 2021 Annual Report is available on the Company’s website at www.kingstonresources.com.au.

Resolution 1 – Adoption of Remuneration Report

In accordance with Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act , the Board is presenting the Company’s Remuneration Report to shareholders for consideration and adoption by a non-binding vote.

The Remuneration Report is contained in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report. The Remuneration Report includes all of the information required by Section 300A of the Corporations Act , including:

  • (i) board policy for determining, or in relation to, the nature and amount (or value, as appropriate) of remuneration of Directors, secretaries and senior managers of the Company;

  • (ii) discussion of the relationship between such policy and the Company’s performance; and

  • (iii) the prescribed details in relation to the remuneration of each Director and certain executives.

Under the Corporations Act , the vote on this Resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Board or the Company. However, the Board will consider the outcome of the vote when considering future remuneration for Directors and KMP. Shareholders should note that if 25% or more of the votes cast on this Resolution are against adoption of the Remuneration Report, then the first element in the Board spill provisions introduced in 2011 (known generally as the “two strikes rule”) will be triggered. This would require a Resolution on whether to hold a further meeting to spill the Board (“spill resolution”) to be put to Shareholders at the 2022 Annual General Meeting if a “second strike” were to occur at the 2022 Annual General Meeting.

The Remuneration Report forms part of the Directors’ Report which has unanimously been adopted by resolution of the Board. An opportunity will be provided for discussion of the Remuneration Report at the meeting. In relation to the approval of the Remuneration Report of the Company for 2020, less than 25% of the votes cast on that resolution were against it.

The Chairman intends to vote all available proxies in favour of Resolution 1.

Directors’ Recommendation

The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the adoption of the Remuneration Report.

Resolution 2 – Re-Election of Director – Stuart Rechner

Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder approval for the re-election of Stuart Rechner as a Director of the Company. Mr Rechner is eligible for re-election and offers himself for re-election as a Director of the Company.

Biography of Stuart Rechner, Non-Executive Director

Mr Rechner has been a director of the Company since 4 July 2016.

Mr Rechner is an experienced company director and geologist with a background in project generation and acquisition in Australia and overseas. Mr Rechner holds degrees in both geology and law and is a member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists, the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and the Australian Institute of Company Directors. For over ten years Mr Rechner was an Australian diplomat responsible for the resources sector with postings to Beijing and Jakarta.

Mr Rechner has been a Director of Strategic Energy Limited (ASX:SER) since 12 September 2014.

Directors’ Recommendation

The Directors (other than Mr Rechner who abstains given his personal interest in the Resolution) recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the re-election of Mr Rechner.

Resolution 3 – Approval of Employee Incentive Scheme

Background

The remuneration policy of the Company aligns Key Management Personnel objectives with Shareholder and business objectives by combining a fixed remuneration component with specific short-term and long-term incentives based on key performance areas affecting the Company’s operations and financial results. The Board considers the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best Key Management Personnel to run and manage the Company.

The Company implemented the Kingston Resources Long Term Incentive Plan in July 2016 (amended in August 2018 and approved by Shareholders on 8 November 2018 for a period of 3 years), pursuant to which the Board is able to issue rights to acquire Shares (in the form of Performance Rights or Options) to Directors and employees of the Company or a Related Body Corporate of the Company as determined by the Board from time to time.

The Board has decided to rename the Long Term Incentive Plan as the Employee Incentive Scheme ( EIS ), to be in-line with ASX terminology and also to make it clear that the Board may issue both short and long term incentives under the EIS. The substantive terms of the EIS remain unchanged.

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval of the EIS in the interests of good corporate governance practice and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13). If Shareholder approval for Resolution 3 is obtained, all Equity Securities issued by the Company under the EIS for a further period of three (3) years from the date of approval, up to a maximum of 18,000,000 Equity Securities, will be excluded from calculation of the 15% limit on the number of Equity Securities which may be issued in any 12-month period without requiring Shareholder approval in advance under Listing Rule 7.1, or the 10% additional placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A. Please note, any Equity Securities issued to Directors will still require separate shareholder approval.

If approved, the EIS will govern all offers, acceptances and issues of Equity Securities and rights made under the EIS following the Meeting. The EIS was last approved by Shareholders at the Shareholder Meeting held on 8 November 2018 and to date, the following Equity Securities have been issued or granted under the Company’s EIS:

Date of Grant Type of securities Number Grants
Options
9 November 2018 Long Term Incentive Options 2,300,000*
6 November 2019 Long Term Incentive Options 7,281,957*
1 October 2020 Long Term Incentive Options 1,682,533
27 November 2020 Long Term Incentive Options 1,986,301

7

Performance Rights
1 October 2020 Short Term Performance Rights 2,103,165
18 December 2020 Short Term Performance Rights 1,357,877
  • figures adjusted for 10:1 share consolidation completed on 19 November 2019

If Shareholder approval is not obtained for Resolution 3, the issue of Equity Securities pursuant to the EIS will either need to be included in the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1, the 10% additional placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A, or under another exception under Listing Rule 7.2. This may prevent the Company from utilising the placement capacities for fundraising purposes and may limit the Company’s ability to align management and shareholder interests through provision of equity based incentives.

Terms of the EIS

The terms of the EIS are summarised below.

The terms and conditions on which any Options and Performance Rights are granted to Directors or employees, including any vesting and performance criteria, will be governed by the terms set out in an offer or invitation to participate in the EIS made to Directors or employees from time to time.

Eligible Participants

The EIS is open to Directors and to full time and part time employees of the Company and Related Bodies Corporate of the Company, other than such persons who have given notice of resignation, or who have been given notice of termination, of his or her employment, or removed from his or her position (Eligible Participants).

Options and Performance Rights may not be offered to a Director or his or her Associates except where approval is given by the Shareholders in general meeting in accordance with the requirements of the Listing Rules.

Purpose of the EIS

The purpose of the EIS is to:

  • a) establish a method by which Eligible Participants can participate in the future growth and profitability of the Company;

  • b) provide an incentive and reward for Eligible Participants for their contributions to the Company;

  • c) attract and retain a high standard of managerial and technical personnel for the benefit of the Company; and

  • d) align the interests of Eligible Participants more closely with the interests of Shareholders, by providing an opportunity for Eligible Participants to hold an equity interest in the Company.

Board discretions

The Board has broad discretions under the EIS, including (without limitation) as to:

  • a) identifying persons eligible to participate in the EIS;

  • b) the timing of making an offer to participate in the EIS;

  • c) the terms of issue of Options and Performance Rights;

  • d) subject to the requirements of the Listing Rules, particularly Listing Rule 6.23.2, the cancellation of Performance Rights for no consideration, subject to agreement with the participant;

  • e) the periods during which Options and Performance Rights may be exercised or vest; and

  • f) the exercise price of Options.

Options and Performance Rights not to be quoted

Options and Performance Rights granted under the EIS will not be quoted on ASX. However, application will be made to ASX for official quotation of Shares issued or transferred on the exercise of an Option or vesting of a Performance Right provided the Shares are listed on ASX at that time.

Shares issued on exercise of Options and Performance Rights

Subject to the terms of the Options or Performance Rights, each Option or Performance Right entitles its holder to subscribe for and be issued with one Share in the Company.

8

Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of Options and Performance Rights will in all respects rank equally and carry the same rights and entitlements as other Shares on issue in the Company.

Holders of Options and Performance Rights will not be entitled to notice of, or to vote or attend at meetings of the Company or receive dividends until Shares are issued on the exercise of the Options or vesting of the Performance Rights.

Lapse of Options and Performance Rights

Unless the Directors in their absolute discretion determine otherwise, Options and Performance Rights shall lapse:

  • i) if not exercised or vested prior to their expiry date; or

  • ii) if any Performance Hurdle(s), Vesting Conditions or Exercise Conditions are not satisfied.

Unless the Directors in their absolute discretion determine otherwise, Performance Rights shall also lapse:

  • i) if the holder voluntarily resigns otherwise than to take up employment with a Related Body Corporate of the Company or is dismissed from employment for a material breach of contract of employment, negligence or other conduct justifying termination of employment without notice, except that:

  • A) the Performance Rights will not lapse if the cessation of employment was due to death, permanent disablement (for example, illness or incapacity necessitating the permanent withdrawal of the employee from the work force), retirement, redundancy or any other circumstance in which the Board determines the Performance Rights should not lapse;

  • B) Performance Rights may vest, within 12 months after the holder ceases to be a participant where that cessation was by reason of permanent disablement or any other circumstance deemed by the Board to necessitate the permanent withdrawal of the participant from the workforce; and

  • ii) if, in the opinion of the Board, the holder has acted fraudulently or dishonestly or is in material breach of his or her obligations to the Company or any of its Related Bodies Corporate, and the Board determines (at its sole and absolute discretion) the Performance Rights held by that holder to have lapsed.

Restrictions on transfer

Performance Rights and Options granted under the EIS may not be sold, transferred, mortgaged, pledged, charged, encumbered with a security interest in or over them, or otherwise disposed of by a participant without the prior consent of the Board or where such assignment or transfer occurs by force of law.

Participation rights of Option and Performance Right holders

Holders of Options and Performance Rights will only be permitted to participate in a pro rata issue of Shares by the Company if they exercise their Options or if their Performance Rights vest before the record date for the relevant issue. The Company must ensure that it notifies holders of Options of the proposed issue at least 7 Business Days before the record date to determine entitlements to the pro rata issue.

Adjustment of Options and Performance Rights

If the Company makes a pro rata bonus issue, and an Option or Performance Right is not exercised before the record date for that bonus issue, then on exercise of the Option or Performance Right, the holder is entitled to receive the number of bonus shares which would have been issued if the Option or Performance Right had been exercised before the record date.

In the event of a reorganisation (including a consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return) of the issued capital of the Company, the number of Options and Performance Rights to which each Option and Performance Right holder is entitled or the exercise price or both will be changed in the manner required by the Listing Rules and, in any case, in a manner which will not result in any benefits being conferred on holders of Options and Performance Rights which are not conferred on Shareholders.

Takeovers

In the event of a takeover bid, certain capital reorganisations or transactions occurring that give rise to certain changes of control of the Company, restrictions on the exercise or vesting of an Option or Performance Right will lapse so that Option or Performance Right holders are able to participate in the relevant transaction.

Amending the EIS

Subject to any applicable Listing Rules or laws, the EIS may be suspended, terminated or amended at any time by resolution of the Board.

9

Maximum number of Equity Securities to be issued under the EIS

The maximum number of Equity Securities proposed to be issued under the EIS in the three years following shareholder approval is 18,000,000 Equity Securities. These may be issued as Options or Performance Rights.

Resolutions 6 – 8 Service Fee Options – Non-Executive Directors

Mick Wilkes is the Non-Executive Chair of the Company and Anthony Wehby and Stuart Rechner are Non-Executive Directors.

The Company is proposing to grant Service Fee Options in lieu of additional cash fees to each of these Directors as part of their respective remuneration packages. An issue of securities as part of the remuneration packages of company directors is a well-established practice of publicly listed companies and, in the case of the Company, has the benefit of conserving cash whilst fairly rewarding the Directors. The proposed issue of Service Fee Options in lieu of cash for approximately 30% of fixed renumeration for Mr Wilkes and 16% of fixed remuneration for Non-Executive Directors is consistent with recommendations provided by the remuneration committee in its benchmarking report for the Company’s Chair and Non-Executive Directors following its review of the Company’s remuneration framework.

In determining the number of securities proposed to be issued and their terms, consideration was given to the relevant experience and role of each of the Directors, their respective overall remuneration terms and the market price of the Company’s Shares.

The terms of the Service Fee Options proposed to be granted to the KSN Non-Executive Directors are set out in Schedule 4.

The key terms of the Service Fee Options proposed to be issued to the KSN Non-Executive Directors are as follows:

  1. Each Service Fee Options will convert to one ordinary share

  2. Each Service Fee Options will have an expiry date set 3 years from the date of issue.

The Service Fee Options will be issued for nil consideration.

All Service Fee Options that have not been exercised by the expiry date will expire.

Each Service Fee Option entitles the KSN Directors to receive, upon its exercise, one Share. The Service Fee Option will be unquoted and may not be sold, transferred, mortgaged, pledged, charged, encumbered with a security interest in or over them, or otherwise disposed of without the prior consent of the Board or where such assignment or transfer occurs by force of law. The Service Fee Option will not entitle the KSN Directors to receive dividends on Shares before exercise nor do they carry any voting rights.

The Board is seeking Shareholder approval to grant the Service Fee Options to each of the Non-Executive Directors.

Regulatory requirements

Listing Rule 10.14 generally provides that the approval of shareholders is required before a director of a company can acquire Equity Securities issued under an employee incentive scheme. Accordingly, in order for Mr Corbett, Mr Wehby, Mr Rechner and Mr Wilkes to acquire a beneficial interest in the LTI Options, Service Fee Options and shares which may be issued on the exercise of LTI Options and Service Fee Options, the Company must first obtain Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 10.14.

  • (d) The maximum number of Equity Securities that may be acquired by Mr Corbett (pursuant to Resolution 5) is $500,000 divided by the 20-day KSN VWAP immediately prior to vesting condition being met, the MLTI Options issued may then be exercised at a zero dollar exercise price, whereupon Mr Corbett would be entitled to KSN Shares equivalent to $500,000 divided by the 20 day KSN VWAP immediately prior to vesting condition being met.

  • (e) The maximum number of Equity Securities that may be acquired by Mr Wilkes (pursuant to Resolution 6) is 186,667 Service Fee Options, which may be exercised at zero dollar exercise price, whereupon Mr Wilkes would be entitled to 186,667 Shares.

  • (n) The persons entitled to participate in the EIS are Directors and employees of the Company and its Related Bodies Corporate.

  • (o) The following information is provided for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.15.6:

  • (i) A summary of the material terms of the LTI Options is provided in Schedule 1. A summary of the terms of the MLTI Options is provided in Schedule 2. A summary of the terms of the Service Fee Options is contained in Schedule 4.

  • (ii) The reason for granting Options to the KSN Directors as part of their remuneration packages are to:

14

  - A. incentivise long term share price appreciation and the achievement of key operational objectives;

  - B. ensure the Company retains the services of the KSN Directors; and

  - C. align the interests of KSN Directors and Shareholders while reinforcing the commitment of the KSN Directors.
  • (iii) The value attributed to the Equity Securities by the Company is as follows:

    • C. $26,518 in total ($13,259 per Director) for the Service Fee Options to be issued to Mr Wehby and Mr Rechner.

    • D. $35,467 for the Service Fee Options to be issued to Mr Wilkes.

  • (iv) The value attributed to the Options has been determined based on a Black Scholes option pricing model. Key assumptions that form the basis of this valuation are an interest rate of 1.76%, volatility of 55%, and a share price at valuation of $0.19c.

  • (p) A voting exclusion statement for Resolutions 4-8 is on page 4 of the Notice of Meeting. A Summary of the material terms of the EIS Rules is attached to this Explanatory Statement as Annexure A.

  • (q) A summary of the material terms of the EIS is provided in Annexure A.

  • (r) There are no loans proposed to be granted to the KSN Directors for the grant of the Options.

  • (s) The Options will be granted as soon as practicable after the Meeting and in any event within 12 months of the Meeting.

The grant of the Options will confer a financial benefit on the KSN Directors.

Under section 208 of the Corporations Act , for a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:

  • a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members; and

  • b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,

unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.

Shareholder approval is not being sought for the purposes of section 208 of the Corporations Act on the basis that the benefit is considered by the other Directors to constitute reasonable remuneration and, therefore, the exception in section 211 of the Corporations Act applies. Section 211 provides that Shareholder approval is not required for the purposes of section 208 in circumstances where the benefit constitutes remuneration which would be reasonable given the Company’s and the related party’s circumstances.

Having considered the Company’s circumstances and each of the Director’s positions as Directors of the Company, the Board (independent on each occasion of the Director whose remuneration is being considered) considers that the financial benefit conferred by the grant of the Options to Mr Corbett and to each Non-Executive Director forms a reasonable part of the Director’s remuneration and therefore the exception in section 211 applies.

Details of any Options issued under the EIS will be published in the annual report of the Company relating to the period in which the Options are issued, along with a statement that approval for the issue of the Options was obtained under Listing Rule 10.14. Any additional persons covered by Listing Rule 10.14 who become entitled to participate in an issue of Options under the EIS after resolutions 4-8 are approved that were not named in this Notice of Meeting will not participate in the EIS until shareholder approval is obtained under Listing Rule 10.14.

If Shareholder approval is not obtained for any of Resolutions 4-8, the grant of Options to the respective Director will not be able to proceed in the form proposed. In this situation, the Board would consider alternative remuneration arrangements for that Director or those Directors which may result in a Director’s remuneration being inconsistent with the Company’s remuneration principles and diminish alignment of the Director’s interests with those of Shareholders. The Company will also need to pay more cash remuneration to the Directors, reducing the Company’s cash balances.

Resolution 9 – Approval to grant Short Term Incentive Performance Rights to Andrew Corbett.

Background

The Company seeks Shareholder approval for the grant of up to 1,019,940 Short Term Incentive Performance Rights ( STI Performance Rights ) to Mr Corbett.

Short Term Incentive Performance Rights

  1. The Company proposes to grant up to 1,019,940 STI Performance Rights to Mr Corbett. The key terms of the STI Performance Rights proposed to be granted to Mr Corbett will vest in 2 tranches (Tranche 1 and Tranche 2 subject to the following vesting conditions:

  2. (a) Up to 40% of the STI Performance Rights (Tranche 1 – 407,976) will automatically vest on a sliding scale with a minimum of 10% vesting if the June 2022 VWAP is 20% above the June 2021 VWAP ($0.2170), and the maximum of 40% (407,976) vesting if the June 2022 VWAP is 50% or more above the June 2021 VWAP, and

  3. (b) Up to 60% of the STI Performance Rights (Tranche 2 – 611,964) will vest, at the Board’s discretion, upon the achievement of operational performance measures by 30 June 2022.

  4. All STI Performance Rights that have not vested by 31 August 2022 will automatically lapse and be forfeited.

No subscription monies are required in respect of the grant of the STI Performance Rights.

The unvested STI Performance Rights will automatically lapse and be forfeited if Mr Corbett voluntarily resigns otherwise than to take up employment with a Related Body Corporate of the Company or if Mr Corbett is dismissed from employment for a material breach of his contract of employment, gross negligence or other conduct justifying termination without notice. STI Performance Rights will not lapse if Mr Corbett ceases employment due to death, permanent disablement, or any other circumstance in which the Board determines the STI Performance Rights should not lapse.

Each STI Performance Right entitles Mr Corbett to receive, upon vesting, one Share. The STI Performance Rights will be unquoted and may not be sold, transferred, mortgaged, pledged, charged, encumbered with a security interest in or over them, or otherwise disposed of without the prior consent of the Board or where such assignment or transfer occurs by force of law. The STI Performance Rights will not entitle Mr Corbett to receive dividends on Shares before vesting nor will they carry any voting rights.

The STI Performance Rights will be issued to Mr Corbett for the purpose of forming part of Mr Corbett’s remuneration package, and aligning the interests of Mr Corbett with that of the Company and the Shareholders.

Regulatory requirements

Listing Rule 10.11 generally provides that Directors may not be issued any Equity Securities in the Company without the approval of Shareholders.

If approval for Resolution 9 is given for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11 then approval is not required under Listing Rule 7.1.

In accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 10.11 and 10.13, the following information is provided to Shareholders to further allow them to assess the proposed grant of STI Performance Rights to Mr Corbett:

  • i) The STI Performance Rights will be issued to Mr Corbett or his nominee.

  • ii) Mr Corbett is a director of the Company and therefore falls within the category of persons under Listing Rule 10.11.1A (related parties)

  • iii) The maximum number of Equity Securities that may be acquired by Mr Corbett is 1,019,940 STI Performance Rights which may then convert into 1,019,940 Shares if the performance and vesting conditions are met.

  • iv) The STI Performance Rights will be granted for nil consideration and no funds will be raised from the grant of STI Performance Rights, or issue of Shares upon the vesting of STI Performance Rights.

  • v) The full terms and conditions of the STI Performance Rights to be issued to Mr Corbett are set out in Schedule 3 to this Explanatory Statement.

17

  • vi) The STI Performance Rights will be granted as soon as practicable after the Meeting and in any event within 1 month of the Meeting.

  • vii) Mr Corbett’s total remuneration package for FY 2022 is anticipated to consist of $321,930 in base salary, fees and leave, $32,193 in post-employment benefits, $10,271 in STI Performance Rights, $38,048 in LTI Options, and $50,000 for the annual apportionment of the MLTI Option valuation equalling a total remuneration package of $452,442.

  • viii) A voting exclusion statement in respect of Resolution 9 is set out on page 4 of the Notice of Meeting.

The grant of the STI Performance Rights will confer a financial benefit on Mr Corbett. Under section 208 of the Corporations Act , for a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:

  • a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members; and

  • b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,

unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act .

Shareholder approval is not being sought for the purposes of section 208 of the Corporations Act on the basis that the benefit is considered by the other Directors to constitute reasonable remuneration and, therefore, the exception in section 211 of the Corporations Act applies. Section 211 provides that shareholder approval is not required for the purposes of section 208 in circumstances where the benefit constitutes remuneration which would be reasonable given the Company’s and the related party’s circumstances.

Having considered the Company’s circumstances and Mr Corbett’s position as Managing Director of the Company, the Board other than Mr Corbett, considers that the financial benefit conferred by the grant of STI Performance Rights to Mr Corbett is reasonable and therefore, the exception in section 211 applies.

If Shareholder approval is not obtained for Resolution 9, the grant of STI Performance Rights to Mr Corbett will not be able to proceed in the form proposed. In this situation, the Board would consider alternative short-term remuneration arrangements for Mr Corbett which may result in Mr Corbett’s remuneration being inconsistent with the Company’s remuneration principles and diminish Mr Corbett’s alignment of his interest with those of the rest of the Board and management and Shareholders.

Directors’ recommendation

The Directors (other than Mr Corbett who abstains given his personal interest in the Resolution) recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 9.

18

Resolution 10 – Non-Executive Remuneration

In accordance with clause 7.5(a) of the Company’s Constitution, and subject to the Listing Rules 10.17 and 10.17A, the Company may pay to the Non-Executive Directors a maximum total amount of director’s fees determined by the Company in general meeting. The current maximum total amount is $350,000.

The Board seeks shareholder approval to increase the maximum total amount by $150,000 to $500,000, with the increase to take effect on and from the date of this resolution passed and to apply pro rata to the financial year ending 30 June 2022. The Board has no intention to raise Directors Fees, rather the higher aggregate amount would allow the Board to expand in size if later deemed necessary.

The Board confirms, for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.17, that the following Equity Securities were issued to NonExecutive Directors under ASX Listing Rule 10.11 or 10.14 with the approval of the Company’s shareholders during the last 3 years:

Number of Equity
Securities Issued
Class of Equity Securities

Name of Person to Whom

26 November 2020
300,000 Unquoted Options Anthony Wehby, Non-Executive
Director
26 November 2020
Total: 1,800,000

The current limit of $350,000 was approved by the Company’s shareholders at the 2018 Annual General Meeting, with the majority of shareholders voting in favour of the resolution to increase the maximum limit to $350,000.

Details of remuneration paid to Non-Executive Directors for the financial year ending 30 June 2021 are set out in the Company’s Remuneration Report. The Company considers that the increase in the maximum limit will provide the Company with greater flexibility in providing remuneration for Non-Executive Directors that is consistent with current market-based payments as well as allow scope for the Board to grow in alignment with the anticipated growth in scale and complexity of the Company’s operations as its major project is advanced.

The Company notes that its Constitution permits the Company to appoint additional Directors, which represents a possible increase in the number of Non-Executive Directors. This opportunity, together with the flexibility that an increased maximum fee limit will provide, is consistent with the Company’s focus on strategic growth.

A voting exclusion statement for Resolution 10 is set out on page 4 of this Notice.

If shareholder approval is not obtained for Resolution 10, the maximum total remuneration payable to Non-Executive Directors will remain at $350,000. If this happens, the Company may not be able to keep remuneration to Non-Executive Directors consistent with current market-based payments, or give the Board the scope to grow in alignment with Company growth.

Directors’ recommendation

The Directors, other than the Non-Executive Directors, recommend Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 10.

19

Resolution 11 – Approval of issue of Equity Securities for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

Resolution 11 seeks Shareholder approval by way of special resolution for the Company to have the ability to issue Equity Securities pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity available under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.

Overview

Listing Rule 7.1A allows mid to small cap listed entities to seek Shareholder approval to issue Equity Securities equivalent to an additional 10% of the number of Shares on issue by way of placements over a 12-month period ( 10% Placement Capacity ). This is in addition to the 15% permitted under listing rule 7.1.

An eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a Market Capitalisation of $300 million or less at the time of the AGM. The Company is currently an eligible entity for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.1A. The Board expects that the Company will be an eligible entity as at the date of the AGM. However, if the Company is not eligible, Resolution 11 will be withdrawn.

Shareholder Approval

The ability to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A is subject to Shareholder approval by way of special resolution at AGM. Approval cannot be sought at any other Shareholder’s meeting and Equity Securities issued under the approval (if obtained) must be issued by the earlier of 12 months after the date of the AGM, the time and date of the Company’s next AGM or the time and date of approval by Shareholders of a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 or 11.2.

No Equity Securities can be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A before the special resolution is passed. However, if a Listing Rule 7.1A approval has been obtained, Equity Securities issued under that rule may be subsequently ratified by Shareholders in accordance with Listing Rule 7.4 to “refresh” an entity’s Listing Rule 7.1A additional 10% placement capacity.

Equity Securities

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

As at the date of the Notice the Company has only one quoted class of Equity Securities on issue being Shares.

Formula for calculating the 10% Placement Capacity

The Company may issue Equity Securities during the 12-month period after the date of approval calculated in accordance with the following formula as contained in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2:

(A x D) – E

  • A is the number of fully paid ordinary Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement to issue (“ Relevant Period ”):

  • plus the number of fully ordinary Shares issued in the Relevant Period under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 (other than exception 9, 16 or 17);

  • plus the number of Shares 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 to have been approved, under Listing Rule 7.1 or Listing Rule 7.4;

  • plus the number of Shares issued in the Relevant period under an agreement to issue Equity 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 Shares issued in the Relevant Period with approval under Listing Rule 7.1 or Listing Rule 7.4;

  • plus the number of partly paid ordinary Shares that became fully paid in the Relevant Period;

  • less the number of fully paid ordinary Shares cancelled in the Relevant Period.

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 Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.4.

20

Information required by Listing Rule 7.3A

For the purpose of Listing Rule 7.3A, the following information is provided in relation to the approval of the 10% Placement Capacity:

Validity

The approval under Listing Rule 7.1A will be valid from the date of the AGM until the earlier of 12 months from the AGM (25 November 2021), the time and date of the Company’s next AGM or the time and date of approval by Shareholders of a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 or 11.2.

Minimum issue price

The Equity Securities will be issued at an issue price of not less than 75% of the VWAP for the Company’s Equity Securities calculated over the 15 Trading Days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • the date on which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed by the Company and the Recipients of the Equity Securities; or

  • if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 Business Days of the date in the preceding paragraph, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

Risk of dilution

If the Company issues Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity, there is a risk that the economic and voting power of existing Shareholders will be diluted.

There is also a risk that:

  • the market price for the Company’s Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the issue date than the date of approval at the AGM; and

  • the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Equity Securities on the issue date.

The below table shows the risk of dilution to existing Shareholders if the Company issues Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity on the basis of:

  • the current market price of Shares and the current number of Shares calculated in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A.2 variable “A”;

  • a 50% decrease in the current market price of Shares and a 50% increase in the current number of Shares calculated in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A.2 variable “A”; and

The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

  • The Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Capacity.

  • The table does not show any examples of the dilution that may be caused to a specific Shareholder based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the AGM.

  • The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue.

  • The table only shows the effect of issues under Listing Rule 7.1A and does not consider the effect of any issues under the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 during the 12-month period or any other issues.

  • The Issue Price of the Shares is $0.20, being the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 6 October 2021.

Final issue date

The final date that the Company can issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity is 12 months from the date of the AGM, being 25 November 2021, or the time and date of the Company’s next AGM.

The approval under Resolution 10 will cease to be valid in the event that Shareholders approve 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).

Purpose of the issue

The Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for cash consideration to be applied to the acquisition of new investments, or expenditure associated with exploration, drilling, and development of the Company’s existing asset base in Western Australia and PNG.

In accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A.3, the Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A must not be issued for non-cash consideration.

Allocation policy

The Company’s allocation policy for the issue of Equity Securities pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity is largely dependent on the prevailing market conditions and the circumstances of the Company at the time of any proposed issue. The time frame over the 12-month period which the Company expects to make placements under its placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A therefore cannot yet be accurately determined.

As at the date of the Notice the Company has not formed an intention to issue Equity Securities under a placement pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A to any particular party. The Company may approach existing Shareholders, a class or group of existing Shareholders, or new investors who have not previously been Shareholders to participate in a placement of Equity Securities.

When determining to issue the 10% Placement Capacity Equity Securities the Company will have regard to a range of factors including but not limited to:

  • the effect of the issue of Equity Securities on the control of the Company;

  • the financial circumstances of the Company;

  • whether the raising of funds could be carried out by means of a pro-rata entitlement offer or other similar issue to allow existing Shareholders to participate;

  • advice from the Company’s corporate, financial and professional advisors;

  • whether a placement of Equity Securities to a vendor(s) as non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new resources, assets or investments is the best alternative for the Company.

Previous approval

For the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3A.6 the following information is provided.

The Company obtained Shareholder approval for the 10% Placement Capacity at its 2020 Annual General Meeting.

22

During the 12 months prior to the date of this Notice, the Company issued 23,000,343 Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A representing approximately 10% of the total number of Equity Securities on issue 12 months prior to the date of this Notice.

The Company confirms that none of the shareholders receiving shares issued under the 10% Placement Capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A are required to be named under 7.3A.6.

The details of the Equity Securities issued are as follows:

The issue using the 7.1A placement capacity formed part of a broader fundraising effort of the Company (which included an institutional
placement under Listing Rule 7.1). The cash consideration received for the issue under the 7.1A placement capacity was $5,980,089. Of
the funds raised from the broader fundraising activities, approximately $1,650,000 has been spent to acquire the remaining Joint
Venture interest in Misima, taking Kingston ownership to 100% in Misima. The remaining $4,330,089 is to be spent on advancing
exploration and development activities at the Company’s Misima Gold Project as well as general working capital. The Company has not
attributed this expenditure to one form of fundraising.

2Ordinary Shares are fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company with full entitlements to participate in dividends and to vote in meetings.

If Shareholder approval is not obtained for Resolution 11, the Company will not be able to rely on the 10% additional placement capacity from the date of the AGM. This will inhibit the Company’s ability to undertake placements during the period from the AGM which may result in the Company being unable to raise additional capital to take advantage of opportunities and/or fund ongoing operations during that time.

Voting exclusion statement

A voting exclusion statement is set out on page 4 of this Notice. 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.

Directors’ Recommendation

The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the 10% Placement Capacity.

  10. No certificate will be issued for the Service Fee Options.

  11. An Option Holder may not, except with the approval of the Board (in its sole and absolute discretion), sell, transfer, assign, give or otherwise dispose of, in equity or in law, the benefit of the Service Fee Options. The approval of the Board may be given subject to satisfaction of certain conditions in which event such approval will be deemed not to occur until any such conditions have been satisfied, including without limitation a covenant with the Company pursuant to which the proposed new holder acknowledges and agrees to be bound by these terms of the Service Fee Options.

  12. An instrument of transfer of a Service Fee Option must be:

  13. (e) in writing;

  14. (f) in any usual form or in any other form approved by the Directors that is otherwise permitted by law;

  15. (g) subject to the Corporations Act , executed by or on behalf of the transferor, and if required by the Company, the transferee; and

  16. (h) delivered to the Company, at the place where the Company’s register of Option Holders is kept, together with the certificate (if any) of the Service Fee Options to be transferred and any other evidence as the Directors require to prove the title of the transferor to that Service Fee Option, the right of the transferor to transfer those Service Fee Options and the proper execution of the instrument of transfer.

  17. The Service Fee Options will not be listed for quotation on any stock exchange including the ASX.

  18. If the Company is admitted to the Official List of the ASX, the Company will apply for Official Quotation of all Shares allotted pursuant to an exercise of the Service Fee Options in accordance with the Listing Rules.

  19. The Service Fee Options will not give any right to participate in dividends until Shares are allotted pursuant to the exercise of the relevant Service Fee Option

  20. There will be no participating entitlements inherent in the Service Fee Option to participate in new issues of capital that may be offered to Shareholders during the currency of the Service Fee Option. If the Company is admitted to the ASX, Option Holders will be notified by the Company prior to any new pro-rata issue of securities to Shareholders in accordance with the Listing Rules.

  21. In the event of a bonus issue of securities, the number of Shares over which the Service Fee Options are exercisable may be increased by the number of Shares that the Option holders would have received if the Options had been exercised before the record date for the bonus issue.

  22. If the Company is admitted to the ASX, in the event of a reconstruction, including the consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return of issue capital of the Company prior to the Expiry Date, all rights of an Option Holder are to be changed in a manner consistent with the Listing Rules.

  23. There is no right to a change in the exercise price of the Service Fee Options or to the number of Shares over which the Service Fee Options are exercisable in the event of a new issue of capital (other than a bonus issue or a pro rata issue as per Listing Rule 6.22) during the currency of the Service Fee Options.

31

  1. The Company will notify each Option Holder and if required by the Listing Rules, ASX, within one month after the record date for a bonus issue or a pro rata issue of the adjustment to the number of Shares over which a Service Fee Option exists.

  2. Service Fee Options are exercisable by the delivery to the registered office of the Company of a notice in writing stating the intention of the Option Holder to exercise all or a specified number of the Service Fee Options s held by the Option Holder accompanied by a cheque made payable to the Company for the subscription price for the exercise of the specified Service Fee Option. An exercise of only some of the Service Fee Options will not affect the rights of the Option Holder to the balance of the Service Fee Option held by him.

  3. Service Fee Options will be deemed to have been exercised on the date the exercise notice is received by the Company.

  4. The Company will allot the resultant Shares and deliver the holding statement within five business days after the exercise of the Service Fee Options.

  5. Shares allotted pursuant to an exercise of Service Fee Options will rank, from the date of allotment, in all respects equally with existing fully paid ordinary Shares of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to the application of the Listing Rules, all Shares allotted pursuant to an exercise of Service Fee Options will be transferrable.

Annexure A

Summary of Employee Incentive Scheme Rules

The terms of the Employee Incentive Scheme (EIS) are summarised below.

The terms and conditions on which any Options and Performance Rights are granted to Directors or employees, including any vesting and performance criteria, will be governed by the terms set out in an offer or invitation to participate in the EIS made to Directors or employees from time to time.

i) Eligible Participants

The EIS is open to directors and to full time and part time employees of the Company and Related Bodies Corporate of the Company, other than such persons who have given notice of resignation, or who have been given notice of termination, of his or her employment, or removed from his or her position (Eligible Participants).

Options and Performance Rights may not be offered to a Director or his or her Associates except where approval is given by the Shareholders in general meeting in accordance with the requirements of the Listing Rules.

Purpose of the EIS

The purpose of the EIS is to:

  • e) establish a method by which Eligible Participants can participate in the future growth and profitability of the Company;

  • f) provide an incentive and reward for Eligible Participants for their contributions to the Company;

  • g) attract and retain a high standard of managerial and technical personnel for the benefit of the Company; and

  • h) align the interests of Eligible Participants more closely with the interests of Shareholders, by providing an opportunity for Eligible Participants to hold an equity interest in the Company.

Board discretions

The Board has broad discretions under the EIS, including (without limitation) as to:

  • g) identifying persons eligible to participate in the EIS;

  • h) the timing of making an offer to participate in the EIS;

  • i) the terms of issue of Options and Performance Rights;

  • j) subject to the requirements of the Listing Rules, particularly Listing Rule 6.23.2, the cancellation of Performance Rights for no consideration, subject to agreement with the participant;

  • k) the periods during which Options and Performance Rights may be exercised or vest; and

  • l) the exercise price of Options.

Options and Performance Rights not to be quoted

Options and Performance Rights granted under the EIS will not be quoted on ASX. However, application will be made to ASX for official quotation of Shares issued or transferred on the exercise of an Option or vesting of a Performance Right provided the Shares are listed on ASX at that time.

Shares issued on exercise of Options and Performance Rights

Subject to the terms of the Options or Performance Rights, each Option or Performance Right entitles its holder to subscribe for and be issued with one Share in the Company.

Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of Options and Performance Rights will in all respects rank equally and carry the same rights and entitlements as other Shares on issue in the Company.

Holders of Options and Performance Rights will not be entitled to notice of, or to vote or attend at meetings of the Company or receive dividends until Shares are issued on the exercise of the Options or vesting of the Performance Rights.

33

Lapse of Options and Performance Rights

Unless the Directors in their absolute discretion determine otherwise, Options and Performance Rights shall lapse:

  • iii) if not exercised or vested prior to their expiry date; or

  • iv) if any Performance Hurdle(s), Vesting Conditions or Exercise Conditions are not satisfied.

  • Unless the Directors in their absolute discretion determine otherwise, Performance Rights shall also lapse:

  • iii) if the holder voluntarily resigns otherwise than to take up employment with a Related Body Corporate of the Company or is dismissed from employment for a material breach of contract of employment, negligence or other conduct justifying termination of employment without notice, except that:

  • C) the Performance Rights will not lapse if the cessation of employment was due to death, permanent disablement (for example, illness or incapacity necessitating the permanent withdrawal of the employee from the work force), retirement, redundancy or any other circumstance in which the Board determines the Performance Rights should not lapse;

  • D) Performance Rights may vest, within 12 months after the holder ceases to be a participant where that cessation was by reason of permanent disablement or any other circumstance deemed by the Board to necessitate the permanent withdrawal of the participant from the workforce; and

  • iv) if, in the opinion of the Board, the holder has acted fraudulently or dishonestly or is in material breach of his or her obligations to the Company or any of its Related Bodies Corporate, and the Board determines (at its sole and absolute discretion) the Performance Rights held by that holder to have lapsed.

Restrictions on transfer

Performance Rights and Options granted under the EIS may not be sold, transferred, mortgaged, pledged, charged, encumbered with a security interest in or over them, or otherwise disposed of by a participant without the prior consent of the Board or where such assignment or transfer occurs by force of law.

Participation rights of Option and Performance Right holders

Holders of Options and Performance Rights will only be permitted to participate in a pro rata issue of Shares by the Company if they exercise their Options or if their Performance Rights vest before the record date for the relevant issue. The Company must ensure that it notifies holders of Options of the proposed issue at least 7 Business Days before the record date to determine entitlements to the pro rata issue.

Adjustment of Options and Performance Rights

If the Company makes a pro rata bonus issue, and an Option or Performance Right is not exercised before the record date for that bonus issue, then on exercise of the Option or Performance Right, the holder is entitled to receive the number of bonus shares which would have been issued if the Option or Performance Right had been exercised before the record date.

In the event of a reorganisation (including a consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return) of the issued capital of the Company, the number of Options and Performance Rights to which each Option and Performance Right holder is entitled or the exercise price or both will be changed in the manner required by the Listing Rules and, in any case, in a manner which will not result in any benefits being conferred on holders of Options and Performance Rights which are not conferred on Shareholders.

Takeovers

In the event of a takeover bid, certain capital reorganisations or transactions occurring that give rise to certain changes of control of the Company, restrictions on the exercise or vesting of an Option or Performance Right will lapse so that Option or Performance Right holders are able to participate in the relevant transaction.

Amending the EIS

Subject to any applicable Listing Rules or laws, the EIS may be suspended, terminated or amended at any time by resolution of the Board.
