For the purposes of regulation 7.11.37 of the Corporations Regulations 2001 (Cth), the Company determines that Shareholders recorded on the Company’s register at 7pm (Melbourne time) on Wednesday, 15 May 2019 ( Record Date ) will be entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting. If you are not a registered Shareholder at the Record Date, you will not be entitled to vote in respect of that Share. If you cannot attend the Meeting in person, you are encouraged to sign and deliver the accompanying proxy form and return it in accordance with the instructions set out below.
APPOINTMENT OF PROXIES
A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting may appoint an individual or a body corporate as a proxy to attend the Meeting and, on a poll, vote on the Shareholder’s behalf. A proxy need not be a Shareholder. A Shareholder entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint two proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. The enclosed proxy form provides further details on proxies and lodging proxy forms. If a Shareholder appoints a member of KMP or a Closely Related Party of any member of KMP as proxy, the KMP or Closely Related Party is not able to vote proxies on Resolution 1 unless the Shareholder directs them how to vote by marking the boxes on the proxy form for Resolution 1. If a Shareholder appoints the Chairman of the Meeting as proxy, the Shareholder can direct the Chairman how to vote by either marking the relevant boxes on the proxy form (i.e. ‘for’, ‘against’ or ‘abstain’) OR by marking the Chairman’s voting direction box on the proxy form (in which case this will be considered to be an express direction to the Chairman of the Meeting to vote in favour of Resolution 1 even though Resolution 1 is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of KMP and/or even if the Chairman of the Meeting has an interest in the outcome of this Resolution. If no direction is provided and the Chairman’s voting box is not marked (or if the direction is to ‘abstain’) the Chairman of the Meeting will not be able to cast the Shareholder’s votes on Resolution 1 and those votes will not be counted in calculating the required majority on a poll.
Subject to the paragraphs above, if a Shareholder appoints the Chairman of the Meeting as the Shareholder’s proxy and does not specify how the Chairman is to vote on a Resolution, the Chairman will vote, as proxy for that Shareholder, in favour of that Resolution on a poll. For Shareholders registered on the Australian register, section 250B of the Corporations Act stipulates that the proxies must be delivered prior to 10:30 am (Melbourne time) on Wednesday 15 May 2019 to:

Explanatory Statement
The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to explain the resolutions in the accompanying Notice of Annual General Meeting and to provide Shareholders with all information known to the Company that is material to a decision on how to vote on those resolutions.
The Directors recommend Shareholders read the Notice and this Explanatory Statement in full before making any decision in relation to the Resolutions.
Capitalised terms in this Explanatory Statement are defined in the glossary at the end of this document.
Consider Accounts and Reports
The Corporations Act requires the Director’s Report, Financial Report and Auditor’s Report of the Company to be laid before the Meeting. Accordingly, the reports for the financial year ended 31 December 2018 will be presented for consideration by Shareholders. No resolution is required on these reports.
The chair of the Meeting will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders to ask questions or make comments about those reports and the management of the Company. Shareholders will also be given a reasonable opportunity to ask the auditor questions about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the Auditor’s Report.
Resolution 1 – Remuneration Report (non-binding resolution)
The Remuneration Report for the financial year ended 31 December 2018 is set out in the Company’s 2018 Annual Report. By way of summary, the Remuneration Report sets out the Company’s remuneration policies and sets out remuneration details for each Director and other Key Management Personnel of the Company.
Shareholders attending the Meeting will be given a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report.
Under the Corporations Act, a listed entity is required to put to the vote a resolution that the Remuneration Report be adopted. The vote on this resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. However, if at least 25% of the votes cast on Resolution 1 are cast against the adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive annual general meetings, then a ‘board spill resolution’ must be put to the Shareholders proposing the calling of a Shareholder meeting to consider the appointment of Directors.
If a board spill resolution is passed by the Shareholders, the Company is required to hold a further meeting of Shareholders within 90 days to consider replacing those Directors (other than the Executive Chairman of the Company) in office at the time the Remuneration Report was approved by the Board.
Less than 25% of votes cast at the last Annual General Meeting of the Company were cast against the resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report for the year ended 31 December 2017.
Resolution 2 – Re-election of Dr Roger Higgins as a Director
Pursuant to clause 15.10 and 15.11 of the Constitution, a director cannot be on the Board for more than 3 years and must then must retire. He can, as being an eligible person, offer himself for re-election to fill the vacancy. Dr Higgins retires in accordance with the Company’s Constitution and the Listing Rules and, being eligible for re-election, offers himself for re-election at the Annual General Meeting. Dr Higgins’ experience and qualifications are set out in the Annual Report.

M E T M I N C O L I M I T E D
Recommendation : The Directors (other than Dr Higgins) recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.
Resolution 3 – Approval to Issue Additional 10% of shares
Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval for the Company to have the capacity to issue up to an additional 10% of the issued share capital of the Company under Listing Rule 7.1A (10% Placement) over a 12 month period following the Annual General Meeting. The 10% Placement relates only to existing quoted Shares.
Resolution 3 is a special resolution and requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote.
Under Listing Rule 7.1A an eligible listed entity may, subject to Shareholder approval by way of special resolution, issue securities comprising up to 10% of its issued share capital in addition to the normal 15% new issue capacity under Listing Rule 7.1. The Company is an eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less.
Placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A
The 10% Placement is in addition to a listed entity’s usual 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
Directors believe that approval of Resolution 3 is a prudent approach as it will provide the Company with flexibility to take advantage of opportunities as they arise including raising capital quickly if advantageous terms are available, and is in the best interests of the Company.
As at the date of this Notice of Meeting, the Company had 1,187,940,614 Shares on issue.
The actual number of Shares that the Company will have capacity to issue under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated at the date of issue of the Shares in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2.
The formula in accordance with LR7.1A.2 is as below
(A x D) - E
-
A = The number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue 12 months before the issue date or date of agreement to issue,
-
plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the 12 months under an exception in rule 7.2,
-
plus the number of partly paid ordinary securities that became fully paid in the 12 months,
-
plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the 12 months with approval of holders of ordinary securities under rule 7.1 or rule 7.4,
-
less the number of fully paid ordinary securities cancelled in the 12 months.
D = 10%
- E = The number of equity securities issued or agreed to be issued under rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the issue date or date of agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of holders of ordinary securities under rule 7.1 or 7.4.
Minimum issue price
Shares issued under the 10% Placement by the Company can only be issued at a price that is not less than 75% of the VWAP (volume weighted average price) of the Shares calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in its Shares were recorded immediately before:
-
a) the date on which the issue price of the Shares is agreed; or
-
b) the issue date (if the Shares are not issued within five trading days of the date on which the issue price is agreed).
6
M E T M I N C O L I M I T E D
Placement period
Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A is valid from the date of this AGM until the earlier of:
-
a) 12 months after the date of the AGM; and
-
b) the date of 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), or such longer period if allowed by the ASX.
Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A does not lapse if the Company’s market capitalisation subsequently exceeds $300 million or if it is included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index at some time during that period provided that the Company meets those criteria on the date of the Meeting.
Dilution to existing shareholdings
If Resolution 3 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues Shares under the 10% Placement, there is a risk of economic and voting dilution to existing Shareholders as a result. Further, as the market price of the Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the approval at the Meeting, and because the Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price on the issue date, there is a risk that the 10% Placement may raise less funding than it would be based on the current market price of the Shares.
In accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A.2, Table 1 below shows a number of hypothetical scenarios for a 10% Placement where variable “A” in the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (representing the Company’s share capital) has increased by either 50% or 100% and the share price has decreased by 50% or increased by 50% from the approximate share price as at the date of finalisation of the date of this Notice of Meeting.
In accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A.6, Table 2 below provides details of all issues of equity securities by the Company during the 12 months preceding the date of this Notice of Meeting.

Purposes of issues under 10% Placement Facility
The Company may seek to issue Equity Securities under the 10% placement capacity for the following purposes:
(i) cash consideration, in which case the Company intends to use funds raised for continued investment in the Company's current assets, the acquisition of new assets or investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition), and/or for general working capital; or
(ii) non-cash consideration for the provision of services to the Company or the acquisition of new projects, assets and investments. In such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required under Listing Rule 7.1A.3.
The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A.4 and 3.10.5A upon issue of any Equity Securities.
Company’s Allocation Policy for the 10% Placement
The Company’s allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue of securities pursuant to the additional 10% issue. The identity of the Allottees of securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factor 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 existing Shareholders can participate;
-
(ii) the effect of the issue of the 10% 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 of the securities under the additional 10% issue have not been determined as at the date of this Notice but may include existing substantial Shareholders and/or new Shareholder(s) who are not Related Parties or associates of a Related Party of the Company.
Further, if the Company acquires new assets or investments, it is likely that the Allottees under the additional 10% issue may be the vendors of the new assets or investments.
Voting exclusion
A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice of Meeting. At the date of finalisation of the Notice, the Company has not approached any particular existing Shareholder or an identifiable class of existing Shareholders to participate in the issue of the 10% Placement. No existing Shareholder’s vote will therefore be excluded under the voting exclusion in the Notice of Meeting.
Recommendation: The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.

If you wish to appoint the Chairman of the Meeting as your proxy, mark the box in Step 1. If you wish to appoint someone other than the Chairman of the Meeting as your proxy, please write the name of that individual or body corporate in Step 1. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company.
DEFAULT TO CHAIRMAN OF THE MEETING
Any directed proxies that are not voted on a poll at the Meeting will default to the Chairman of the Meeting, who is required to vote those proxies as directed. Any undirected proxies that default to the Chairman of the Meeting will be voted according to the instructions set out in this Proxy Form, including where the Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of KMP.
VOTES ON ITEMS OF BUSINESS – PROXY APPOINTMENT
You may direct your proxy how to vote by placing a mark in one of the boxes opposite each item of business. All your shares will be voted in accordance with such a direction unless 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.

You are entitled to appoint up to two persons as proxies to attend the Meeting and vote on a poll. If you wish to appoint a second proxy, an additional Proxy Form may be obtained by telephoning the Company’s share registry or you may copy this form and return them both together.
To appoint a second proxy you must:
-
(a) on each of the first Proxy Form and the second Proxy Form state the percentage of your voting rights or number of shares applicable to that form. If the appointments do not specify the percentage or number of votes that each proxy may exercise, each proxy may exercise half your votes. Fractions of votes will be disregarded; and
