ORDINARY BUSINESS

Discussion of Financial Statements and Reports

To discuss the Company’s financial statements and the reports of Directors and the auditor in respect of the year ended 31 July 2020.

Pursuant to the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), shareholders will be given an opportunity at the meeting to ask questions about, or make comments in relation to, each of the aforementioned reports during consideration of these items.

RESOLUTION 1

Adoption of the Remuneration Report

To consider and, if thought fit, to pass the following resolution as an ordinary resolution:

That the Remuneration Report of the Company for the year ended 31 July 2020, as set out in the Directors’ Report of the Annual Report, be adopted.

Voting Exclusions

The Company will disregard any votes cast on this resolution by certain persons. Details of the voting exclusions applicable to this resolution are set out in the ‘Voting Exclusions’ section of the Notes below.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

Shareholders are asked to adopt the Remuneration Report. The shareholder vote is advisory only and does not bind the Directors of the Company. However, pursuant to the Corporations Act, if the resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report receives a 'no' vote of at least 25% of the votes cast at two consecutive Annual General Meetings, a resolution must then be put to Shareholders at the second AGM as to whether another general meeting of the Company should be held within 90 days at which all Directors (other than any Managing Director), who were in office at the time the Board approved the second Remuneration Report, would need to stand for re-election.

Recommendation

Noting that each Director has a personal interest in their own remuneration from the Company (as such interests are described in the Remuneration Report) and, as described in the voting exclusions above, that each Director (or any closely related party of a Director) is excluded from voting their shares on this resolution, the Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report.

RESOLUTION 2

Re-election of Director

Mr Robin Widdup retires in accordance with the Constitution and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election as a Director.

Information on Mr Widdup and his experience and qualifications is set out below:

Robin Widdup has over 40 years of industry experience. He graduated from Leeds University in 1975 with an Honours Degree in Geology. From 1986 to 1997 Robin worked as an Analyst and Manager for J B Were & Sons – Resource Research team. Robin founded Lion Selection Group and Lion Manager in 1997.

Robin is Managing Director of Lion Manager Pty Ltd and Chairman of Celamin Holdings Ltd and a Non- Executive Director of Nusantara Resources and One Asia Resources Limited, all Lion investees.

Notice of General Meeting

NOTES

These Notes form part of the Notice of Meeting.

Right to vote

The Directors have determined that, for the purpose of voting at the meeting, members are those persons who are the registered holders of shares at 7.00pm (Melbourne time) on 8 December 2020.

Each member entitled to attend and vote at the meeting may vote by:

  • (a) attending the meeting in person; or

  • (b) appointing a proxy to attend and vote at the meeting on their behalf.

Voting Exclusions

The Corporations Act and the Listing Rules require that certain persons must not vote, and the Company must disregard any votes cast by certain persons, on the resolutions to be considered at the meeting. These voting exclusions are described below:

Item 1 – Adoption of the Remuneration Report

Except to the extent otherwise permitted by law, the following persons may not vote, and the Company will disregard any votes cast by the following persons, on the resolution proposed at item 1 (Resolution 1) :

  • A member of the key management personnel for Lion Selection Group Limited (each a KMP ) whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report (or a closely related party of any such KMP) unless:

  • that person does so as a proxy appointed by writing that specifies how the proxy is to vote on Resolution 1; and

  • the vote is not cast on behalf of a KMP whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report (or a closely related party of any such KMP).

  • A KMP whose remuneration details are not included in the Remuneration Report (or a closely related party of any such KMP) that is appointed as a proxy where the proxy appointment does not specify the way the proxy is to vote on Resolution 1, unless:

  • the proxy is the Chair of the meeting at which Resolution 1 is voted on; and

  • the proxy appointment expressly authorises the Chair to exercise the proxy even if Resolution 1 is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a KMP.

For the purposes of these voting exclusions:

The ‘key management personnel for Lion Selection Group Limited’ (or KMPs) are those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company either directly or indirectly. It includes all Directors (executive and non-executive). The KMPs during the year ended 31 July 2020 are listed in the Remuneration Report contained in the Directors’ Report for the year ended 31 July 2020.

A ‘closely related party’ of a KMP means:

  • a spouse or child of the KMP; or

  • a child of the KMP’s spouse; or

  • a dependant of the KMP or of the KMP’s spouse; or

  • anyone else who is one of the KMP’s family and may be expected to influence the KMP, or be influenced by the KMP, in the KMP’s dealings with Lion Selection Group Limited; or

  • a company the KMP controls.

The Company will also apply these voting exclusions, on an equivalent basis, to persons appointed as attorney by a shareholder to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting under a power of attorney.

Appointment of proxies

A Proxy Form accompanies this Notice of General Meeting. A shareholder who is entitled to attend and vote at the meeting is entitled to appoint no more than two proxies to attend and vote in their place. A proxy may be either an individual or a corporation, and need not be a shareholder of the Company.

A single proxy exercises all voting rights. A member 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. Where a shareholder wishes to appoint two proxies, the names of both proxies and the percentage of votes or number of securities for each should be included in the enclosed Proxy Form. If a shareholder appoints two proxies and does not specify each proxy’s voting rights, the rights are deemed to be 50% each. Fractions of votes are to be disregarded.

A proxy need not vote in that capacity on a show of hands on any resolution nor (unless the proxy is the Chairman of the Meeting) on a poll. However, if the proxy's appointment specifies the way to vote on a resolution, and the proxy decides to vote in that capacity on that resolution, the proxy must vote the way specified (subject to the other provisions of these Notes, including the voting exclusions noted above).

All votes at the Meeting will be conducted by Poll. The Chairman intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of the resolutions put in the Notice of Meeting.
