BUSINESS OF THE MEETING

AGENDA

Resolution One – Updating of the Company’s Constitution

To consider, and if thought fit, to pass the following resolution as a special resolution:

“That, for the purposes of section 136(2) of the Corporations Act and for all other purposes, Shareholders approve the amendment of the Constitution in the manner set out in the Explanatory Statement to this Notice of Meeting by the adoption of the form of Constitution signed by the Chairman for the purposes of identification at the meeting in place of the current constitution, with the amendments to take effect from close of the Meeting.”

Resolution Two- Approval of the grant of Performance Rights to the Managing Director

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

“That for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.14 and for all other purposes, approval is given to the Company granting 876,404 Performance Rights to the Company’s managing director, Mr Edmund Ainscough or his nominated entity under the Company’s Employee Award Plan approved by shareholders at the Company’s 2022 Annual General Meeting which Performance Rights will be granted upon and subject to the terms and conditions set out in the accompanying Explanatory Memorandum.”

Voting Exclusion Statement

In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 14.11, the Company will disregard any votes cast in favour of Resolution 2 by or on behalf of a person referred to in ASX Listing Rules 10.14, 10.14.2 or 10.14.3 who is eligible to participate in the Company’s Employee Awards Plan (including Mr Edmund Ainscough) or an associate of that person or those persons.

However, this does not apply to a vote cast in favour of a resolution by:

  • a person as proxy or attorney for a person who is entitled to vote on the resolution, in accordance with directions given to the proxy or attorney to vote on the resolution in that way; or

  • the chair of the meeting as proxy or attorney for a person who is entitled to vote on the resolution, in accordance with a direction given to the chair to vote on the resolution as the chair decides; or

  • a holder acting solely in a nominee, trustee, custodial or other fiduciary capacity on behalf of a beneficiary provided the following conditions are met:

  • the beneficiary provides written confirmation to the holder that the beneficiary is not excluded from voting, and is not an associate of a person excluded from voting, on the resolution; and

  • the holder votes on the resolution in accordance with directions given by the beneficiary to the holder to vote in that way.

Page 4 of 26

Other Restrictions on Voting

As Resolution 2 is connected with the remuneration of a member of the key management personnel for the Company, a person appointed a proxy must not vote in relation to Resolution 2 if that person is either:

  • a member of the key management personnel for the Company; or

  • a closely related party of a member of the key management personnel for the Company; and

the appointment does not specify the way in which the proxy is to vote on the resolution.

However, the above does not apply if the poxy is the Chair of the meeting at which Resolution 2 is voted on and the appointment expressly authorises the Chair to exercise the proxy even if the resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the key management personnel for the Company.

Resolution 3 – Approval of Benefits under section 200D of the Corporations Act 2001

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

“That for the purposes of section 200E of the Corporations Act 2001 approval is given to the Company giving benefits to Mr Edmund Ainscough or nominated entity in connection with any future retirement by Mr Ainscough from a managerial or executive office being a benefit arising from the Board waiving any vesting conditions applicable to Performance Rights granted to Mr Ainscough or nominated entity, extending the time for satisfaction of any such conditions or permitting the Performance Rights to remain in existence after Mr Ainscough’s retirement from office.”

Voting Prohibition

In accordance with sections 200E(2A) and (2B) of the Corporations Act, no votes on Resolution 3 may be cast by Mr Ainscough or any associate of Mr Ainscough. This restriction does not prevent Mr Ainscough or any of his associates from voting on the Resolution as proxy for another person which specifies how the proxy holder is to vote.

Further Voting Restrictions

As Resolution 3 is connected with the remuneration of a member of the key management personnel for the Company, a person appointed a proxy must not vote in relation to Resolution 3 if that person is either:

  • a member of the key management personnel for the Company; or

  • a closely related party of a member of the key management personnel for the Company; and

the appointment does not specify the way in which the proxy is to vote on the resolution.

Page 5 of 26

However, the above does not apply if the poxy is the Chair of the meeting at which Resolution 3 is voted on and the appointment expressly authorises the Chair to exercise the proxy even if the resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the key management personnel for the Company.

BY ORDER OF THE BOARD

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions which are the subject of the business of the Meeting.

Resolution 1 – Amendment of the Constitution

1.1 Overview

The Directors consider it appropriate to update the Constitution of the Company to take account of regulatory and market practice changes in recent years, in particular the use of technology to enable a Hybrid Meeting - a meeting that is held both at a physical location and remotely via virtual technology.

A summary of the principal amendments to the Constitution are set out below. As it is a summary, it is not exhaustive. A copy of the proposed new Constitution incorporating all the amendments will be tabled at the Meeting and is available on the Company’s website lunnonmetals.com.au/meetings.

1.2 Hybrid Meeting

The Constitution currently only contemplates a general meeting being held at a physical location.

If Resolution 1 is approved, the amended Constitution will permit a Hybrid Meeting. The amended Constitution provides flexibility and clarity around how the Company may conduct Hybrid Meetings in the future. Specifically, the amended Constitution permits the Company to hold meetings using or with the assistance of any technology approved by the Directors or in any manner permitted by law (subject to it being a Hybrid Meeting). The amendments do not permit wholly “virtual” online meetings.

Consequential provisions are also included to provide clarity around procedural matters, including to ensure that ‘online’ attendees are treated as being present at the meeting and are counted for a quorum, and to confirm that the Directors may prescribe the detailed procedures by which meetings held with technological assistance may be conducted.

1.3 Increase to Maximum Joint Holders of Shares

In April 2017, ASX announced that the current Australian Clearing House Electronic Subregister System ( CHESS ) was to be replaced with a new system that uses distributed ledger technology (e.g. ‘blockchain’ technology) and will be known as the ASX Clearing and Settlement Platform ( CSP ). In preparation for the CSP, ASX has recommended that listed companies change their constitutions to enable the registration of up to four joint holders as permitted to be registered under CSP. Clause 9.8 of the Constitution currently allows up to three joint holders to be recorded in relation to Shares. It is proposed that clause 9.8 of the Constitution be amended to allow the Company to register the maximum number of joint holders permitted under the ASX Settlement Operating Rules. This will ensure that the Company’s Constitution will enable the maximum number of joint holders to be registered once the CSP becomes operative.

Page 7 of 26

1.4 Increase to Interest Rate

The current interest rate for amounts owing to the Company under the Constitution (e.g. failure to pay a call on a share when due or amounts which may otherwise be owed by a Shareholder, including non-payment of tax or duties) is defined under ‘Prescribed Rate’, which currently means ‘ the interest rate which is 2% above the Reserve Bank of Australia cash rate as published or quoted from time to time, or such other rate as may from time to time be fixed by the Directors, calculated daily ’.

The Directors consider the interest rate of 2% above the Reserve Bank of Australia cash rate to be unreflective of an arm’s length interest rate. The Directors propose to increase the rate to 6% above the Reserve Bank of Australia cash rate, which is more reflective of corporate overdraft interest rates in Australia (which would, in the Director’s opinion, more commonly apply to the circumstances specified in the Constitution in which interest may be charged).

1.5 Other Changes

Other proposed changes to the Constitution are more administrative in nature and are aimed at either facilitating flexibility and efficiency in the governance of the Company or reflecting a position that already exists in the Corporations Act, in particular following amendments made by the Corporations Amendment (Meetings and Documents) Act 2022, which came into effect on 1 April 2022.

For instance, the proposed amendments:

  • (a) clarify when voting on a resolution at a general meeting must be via a poll and when voting will be determined by a show of hands;

  • (b) clarify that the procedure for taking a poll will be as directed by the Chair and subject to any applicable law and listing rules;

  • (c) stating that Shareholders may, in accordance with the Corporations Act, appoint an independent person to observe the conduct of the poll or scrutinise the outcome of a poll and prepare a report on the conduct or outcome of the poll;

  • (d) allow the Company by resolution to convert or reclassify shares from one class to another, subject to the Constitution’s rules regarding variation of class rights;

  • (e) allow the Company to accept a surrender of a Share by way of compromise of a claim;

  • (f) clarify that a Director who attends a Board meeting waives any objection that person may have to failure to give notice; and

  • (g) clarify that on written board resolutions that a Director can expressly in writing abstain or disqualify themselves from considering the resolution, and that a Director can disqualify themselves from receiving a resolution related to expressly specified matters in advance of the receiving the resolution.

The proposed changes also include adoption of gender neutral pronouns, including “Chairperson’’, “Shareholder”, ‘Director”, instead of “chairman”, “him or her” or “his or her”.

Directors Recommendation Regarding Resolution 1

All Directors of the Company recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1 for the reasons set out above.

Resolution 2 – Approval for the Grant of Performance Rights to the Managing Director

1.1 Overview

The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, to grant up to 876,404 Performance Rights to Mr Edmund Ainscough, the Managing Director of the Company, ( Related Party ) on the terms and conditions set out below ( Performance Rights ).

The Performance Rights are being offered and will be granted under the Company’s Employee Awards Plan ( Plan ) as approved by Shareholders at the Company’s 2022 Annual General Meeting. Please refer to Schedule A for a summary of the terms of the Plan.

Resolution 2 seeks approval to the grant of Performance Rights to Mr Edmund Ainscough or his nominated entity.

1.2 Chapter 2E 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 in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; 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.

The grant of Performance Rights constitutes giving a financial benefit Mr Ainscough by virtue of Mr Ainscough being a director of the Company.

The Directors (other than Mr Ainscough who has a material person interest in the grant of the Performance Rights) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the grant of Performance Rights because the agreement to grant the Performance Rights is considered reasonable remuneration having regard to the circumstances of the Company and the position held by Mr Ainscough. Accordingly, the proposed grant of the Performance Rights to Mr Ainscough or nominated entity is considered to fall within the “reasonable remuneration” exception set out in section 211 of the Corporations Act so that member approval is not required for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

1.3 Listing Rule 10.14

ASX Listing Rule 10.14 provides that a listed company like the Company must not permit a director of the Company or associate to acquire Equity Securities under an employee incentive plan unless it obtains shareholder approval.

Page 9 of 26

As the grant of the Performance Rights under Resolution 2 involves the grant of securities to a Director of the Company (or his nominated entity), Shareholder approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.14 is required.

1.4 Impact of Resolution 2

If Resolution 2 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the grant of the Performance Rights to Mr Ainscough or his nominated entity within three years of the date of the meeting or by such later date as may be permitted by an ASX waiver of the ASX Listing Rules (noting that the Company proposes to grant the Performance Rights within 14 days of the Meeting if Resolution 2 is passed). The grant of Performance Rights (and any associated issue of Shares upon vesting and exercise of Performance Rights) to Mr Ainscough or his nominated entity will not be included in calculating the Company’s capacity to issue equivalent to 15% of the Company’s ordinary securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 2 is not passed, the proposed grant of the Performance Rights the subject of the Resolution will not proceed. In that event, issues may arise with the competitiveness of Mr Ainscough’s total remuneration package and alignment of rewards with other senior executives in the Company. The Board would then need to consider alternative remuneration arrangements or performance hurdles, after consulting with Mr Ainscough and Shareholders.

1.5 Information required by Listing Rule 10.15

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 10.15, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 2:

  • (a) The Performance Rights are to be issued to Mr Edmund Ainscough or his nominated entity (any nominated entity must be an immediate family member of Mr Ainscough, a corporate trustee of a self managed super fund where Mr Ainscough is a director or a company whose members comprise Mr Ainscough or his immediate family).

  • (b) Mr Ainscough is subject to Listing Rule 10.14 by virtue of being a director of the Company. Mr Ainscough’s nominated entity is subject to Listing Rule 10.14 by virtue of being an associate of Mr Ainscough.

  • (c) The number of Performance Rights to be issued to Mr Ainscough (or nominated entity) has been determined in accordance with the formulae in Schedule B. The Performance Rights will, at the election of the holder convert to issued ordinary shares in the capital of the Company if applicable vesting and other conditions are satisfied (or waived by the Board).

  • (d) Mr Ainscough’s current total remuneration package is comprised of the following:

  • (i) Total Fixed Annual Remuneration ( TFR ): $400,000 (including base salary and superannuation);

  • (ii) Short Term Incentives ( STI ): maximum opportunity is equal to 65% of TFR, assuming all targets are fully achieved (STI is payable as Performance Rights) (these Performance Rights will be issued if Resolution 2 is passed); and

Page 10 of 26

  • (iii) Long Term Incentives: maximum opportunity is equal to 65% of TFR, assuming all targets are fully achieved (LTI is payable as Performance Rights) (these Performance Rights will be issued if Resolution 2 is passed);

  • (e) Mr Ainscough currently holds or has a relevant interest in the following securities in the capital of the Company:

Name of Holder Number and Class of Securities Held
NUB Holdings Pty Ltd 262,410 Ordinary Shares
NUB Holdings Pty Ltd 1,367,332 Ordinary Shares (Escrowed to 16
June 2023)
Edmund Ainscough 1,700,000 Unlisted Options (Exercise Price
$0.05, Expiring 22 March 2026, Escrowed to 16
June 2023)
  • (f) No securities have previously been issued to Mr Ainscough under the Plan.

  • (g) The material terms of the Performance Rights are as follows:

  • (i) The Performance Rights will be split equally into two different categories, namely Short Term Incentives and Long Term Incentives.

  • (ii) Each Performance Right will confer on the holder the right to be issued one issued ordinary Share, credited as fully paid up for no payment or other consideration. Such right will only be exercised once vesting conditions or Performance Hurdles applying to the Performance Rights have been satisfied (or waived).

  • (iii) The Short Term Incentive Performance Rights (comprising 438,202 Performance Rights) will be subject to the Performance Hurdles detailed in Schedule C being satisfied during the period commencing 1 January 2023 and expiring on 30 June 2024 and may vest according to the level of vesting as specified in Schedule C.

  • (iv) Long Term Incentive Performance Rights (comprising 438,202 Performance Rights) will be subject to the Performance Hurdles detailed in Schedule C during the period commencing 1 January 2023 and expiring on 30 June 2026 and may vest according to the level of vesting as specified in Schedule C.

  • (v) Vesting of the Performance Rights will also be subject to Mr Ainscough remaining as an employee or director of the Company at the time the relevant Performance Hurdle is met. This requirement is subject to the discretionary powers of the Board under the Plan to waive such a requirement or extend the time the rights remain on foot.

Page 11 of 26

  • (vi) If a Performance Hurdle is not met within the relevant time period, the Board will consider the extent to which, during the relevant time period, meaningful progress was made towards achieving the Performance Hurdle and will determine whether a portion of the Performance Rights that would otherwise have vested on achieving that Performance Hurdle, will vest in any event. Guidance as to the Board’s policy level of vesting where a Performance Hurdle is not fully met within the relevant time period appears in the tables in Schedule C.

  • (vii) The Performance Rights will otherwise be granted subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, a summary of which appears in Schedule A.

  • (viii) All granted Performance Rights will immediately vest, and be immediately exercisable, notwithstanding applicable Performance Hurdles are not then achieved, in the event of a change of control of the Company pursuant to a change of control triggered by a person who does not control the Company at the time the Performance Rights are granted achieving control of more than 50% of the ordinary voting securities in the Company.

  • (ix) The Performance Rights will not be transferrable (except on death of the holder in limited circumstances or with the consent of the Board) and will not be listed for quotation on the ASX or on any other securities exchange. If and when Performance Rights are converted into Shares, application will be made for those Shares to be listed for quotation on the ASX.

  • (x) The Performance Rights are proposed to be granted to incentivise Mr Ainscough and also by way of supplementary remuneration.

  • (xi) The Performance Rights have been selected by the Board as the most appropriate way to incentivise and reward the Managing Director having regard to the important role Mr Ainscough plays in the Company, the importance to the Company of attracting and retaining highly qualified and capable executives like Mr Ainscough without undue diminution of the Company’s cash reserves and recognising the benefits to the Company of aligning the rewards flowing to Mr Ainscough with the achievement of hurdles which are meaningful in terms of the Company’s progress and success for Shareholders.

  • (xii) The Board obtained and considered independent advice from a major accounting firm in formulating the package of Performance Rights to be granted. Those advisers in return had regard to the types of incentive and rewards provided by other ASX listed companies which are regarded as peers of the Company. The Company considers the package of Performance Rights is appropriate and equitable having regard to market norms and the importance to the Company of appropriately remunerating and incentivising Mr Ainscough.

  • (xiii) The number of Performance Rights was determined on the basis of the formula in Schedule B.

Page 12 of 26

  • (xiv) The Performance Hurdles were formulated so as to be reasonable and proportionate to the additional value the Company will derive if the Performance Hurdle is achieved.

  • (xv) The value which the Company attributes to the Performance Rights to be granted to Mr Ainscough or his nominated entity is $0.890 per Performance Right. This valuation is based on the 30 trading day volume weighted average price of the Company’s shares prior to the commencement of the performance period (i.e. up to 31 December 2022).

  • (xvi) The last day for exercise of the Performance Rights is 31 December 2029.

  • (h) The Performance Rights will be granted within 14 days of the Meeting.

  • (i) No payment will be made by Mr Ainscough for the issue of the Performance Rights or their subsequent conversion into Shares.

  • (j)

  • A summary of the material terms of the Plan appears in Schedule A.

  • (k) No loan will be made to Mr Ainscough or to any other person in connection with the acquisition of the Performance Rights.

  • (l) Details of any securities issued under the Plan will be published in the Company’s annual report relating to the period in which they were issued, along with a statement that approval for the issue was obtained under Listing Rule 10.14.

  • (m) Any additional persons covered by Listing Rule 10.14 who become entitled to participate in an issue of securities under the Plan after Resolution 2 is approved and who were not named in this Notice of Meeting will not participate until approval is obtained under that rule.

  • (n) The grant of the Performance Rights or their conversion into ordinary Shares will not reduce the Company’s 15% placement facility under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • (o) The Performance Rights do not:

  • (i) Confer any rights to vote at Shareholder meetings;

  • (ii) confer any entitlement to a dividend, whether fixed or in the discretion of the Directors;

  • (iii) confer any right to a return of capital when on a winding up or on a reduction of capital;

  • (iv) confer any right to participate in the surplus profit or assets of the Company on a winding up; or

  • (v) confer any right to participate in new issues of securities by the Company such as bonus issues or entitlement issues

unless and until any applicable Performance Hurdle is achieved (or waived) and the Performance Right converted to a Share.

Page 13 of 26

Directors Recommendation Regarding Resolution 2

All Directors of the Company (other than Mr Ainscough) recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2 for the reasons set out above.

Mr Ainscough declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders given that he has a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 2.

Resolution 3 – Approval of Benefits under section 200D of the Corporations Act 2001

1.1 Sections 200B and 200E of the Corporations Act

Mr Ainscough occupies a managerial or executive office with the Company within the meaning of section 200AA of the Corporations Act.

Section 200B of the Corporations Act generally provides that, subject to specific exceptions, Shareholder approval is required for the giving of benefits to a person occupying a managerial or executive office with the Company in connection with their retirement from a managerial or executive office. The term ‘benefits’ is widely defined and may include the early vesting or acceleration of Performance Rights or waiver of exercise or forfeiture conditions or performance hurdles.

The Plan, and the terms and conditions of grant of the Performance Rights under the Plan to the Related Party, contain a number of provisions which may operate to entitle the Related Party to an early vesting of Performance Rights earlier and/or in different circumstances than might otherwise be the case in connection with their ceasing to hold a managerial or executive office with the Company. Some of the relevant provisions in the Plan (or terms and conditions) are subject to the Board exercising their discretion to allow such exercise (whether by waiving conditions of exercise or extending the period for exercise or otherwise).

Accordingly, it is possible that in the future a benefit may be given under the Plan to Mr Ainscough or his nominated entity by way a waiver of vesting conditions in relation to the Performance Rights in certain circumstances (or extension of time to vest the Performance Rights ) including upon termination of employment or office with the Company due to resignation, redundancy, retirement, permanent incapacity or death or where a takeover bid is made for the Shares in the Company.

1.2 Value of Benefits

The value of any such benefits which may be given to the Related Party in the event of such a waiver or extension of time cannot presently be ascertained but matters, events and circumstances that will, or are likely to, affect the calculation of that value include:

  • (a) the number of Performance Rights held by the Related Party at that time;

  • (b) the number of Performance Rights that vest early;

  • (c) the price of Shares on the ASX on the date of calculation;

  • (d) the status of any vesting conditions or other conditions for the Performance Rights at the time of ceasing to hold a managerial or executive office with the Company.

Page 14 of 26

1.3 Shareholder Approval under Section 200E of the Corporations Act

Shareholder approval is, therefore, sought under section 200E of the Corporations Act to the giving of any benefit to Mr Ainscough in connection with his future cessation of office or position with the Company under the terms of the Plan (or terms and conditions of grant) in relation to the Performance Rights, including as a result of any future exercise of a discretion by the Board under the terms of the Plan or under the terms and conditions of the Performance Rights.

Mr Ainscough has advised that he has no current intention to resign from his position with the Company.

The Directors consider that a potential by-product of Mr Ainscough being an effective and successful Managing Director is that the Company may, in the future, become a takeover target as other resource companies seek to acquire projects being progressed under the stewardship of Mr Ainscough. The Directors do not consider it to be in the best interests of shareholders for there to be any disincentive for the Company becoming a takeover target.

Directors Recommendation Regarding Resolution 3

All Directors (other than Mr Ainscough) recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.

Mr Ainscough declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders given that he has a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 3.

  • (e) Issue Price: The issue price (if any) in respect of the Awards granted under the Plan is as determined by the Board at its discretion.

  • (f) Nominees: An Eligible Employee may, by notice in writing to the Board and subject to applicable laws, nominate a nominee in whose favour the Eligible Employee wishes the Awards to be issued.

  • (ii) the Court sanctioning a compromise or arrangement relating to the Company under Part 5.1 of the Corporations Act;

  • (i) Exercise of Awards : Upon receiving a vesting notice with respect to their Awards, a Participant may exercise those Awards by delivery to the Company Secretary of the certificate for the Awards (if any), a signed notice of exercise and payment equal to the exercise price (if any) for the number of Awards sought to be exercised.

  • (j) Lapse of Awards : Unless otherwise determined by the Board, an Award will not vest and will lapse on the earlier of:

  • (i) the Board determining that the vesting conditions attaching to the Award have not been satisfied, reached or met in accordance with its terms or is not capable of being satisfied, reached or met;

  • (ii) the day immediately following the last exercise date; or

  • (iii) with respect of unvested Awards, the date the Participant ceases employment, engagement or office with the Company, subject to certain exceptions.

  • (k) Issue of Shares on vesting of Options or Performance Rights : Following exercise of the Options or Performance Rights, the Company will, subject to the terms of the Company’s relevant policies, issue or transfer Shares to that Participant and apply for official quotation or listing of those Shares on the ASX if applicable.

  • (l) Ranking of Shares : Shares issued upon exercise of the Options or Performance Right will rank equally in all respects with existing Shares, except for entitlements which had a record date before the date of the issue of that Share.

  • (m) Adjustment of Options or Performance Rights : If, prior to the vesting of an Option or Performance Right, there is a reorganisation of the issued share capital of the Company (including a consolidation, sub-division or reduction of capital or return of capital to Shareholders), the number of Options or Performance Rights to which a Participant is entitled will be adjusted in a manner required by the Listing Rules.

  • (n) Clawback : If the Board determines that:

  • (i) a Participant (or Eligible Employee who has nominated a nominee to receive the Awards) at any time:

Page 20 of 26

  • (A) has been dismissed or removed from office for a reason which entitles a Group Company to dismiss the Participant (or Eligible Employee) without notice;

  • (B) has been convicted on indictment of an offence against the Corporations Act in connection with the affairs of a Group Company;

  • (C) has had a judgement entered against him or her in civil proceedings in respect of the contravention by the Participant (or Eligible Employee) of his or her duties at law, in equity or under statute in his or her capacity as an executive or Director of a Group Company;

  • (D) has committed an act of fraud, defalcation or gross misconduct in relation to the affairs of that body corporate (whether or not charged with an offence);

  • (E) is in material breach of any of his or her duties or obligations to a Group Company; or

  • (F) has done an act which brings a Group Company into disrepute,

then the Board may determine that all unvested Shares held by the Participant will be forfeited and any Options or Performance Rights held by the Participant will lapse; and

  • (ii) there has been a material misstatement in the Company’s financial statements or some other event has occurred which, as a result, means that the relevant vesting conditions (if any) to an Award which has vested were not, or should not have been determined to have been satisfied, then the Participant shall cease to be entitled to those vested Awards and the Board may:

    • (A) by written notice to the Participant cancel the relevant Options or Performance Rights for no consideration or determine that the relevant Shares are forfeited;

    • (B) by written notice to the Participant require that the Participant pay to the Company the after tax value of the relevant Awards, with such payment to be made within 30 Business Days of receipt of such notice; or

    • (C) adjust fixed remuneration, incentives or participation in the Plan of a relevant Participant in the current year or any future year to take account of the after tax value of the relevant Awards.

  • (o) Amendments to the Plan : Subject to and in accordance with the Listing Rules, the Board may amend, revoke, add to or vary the Plan (without the necessity of obtaining the prior or subsequent consent or approval of Shareholders of the Company), provided that rights or entitlements in respect of any Option, Performance Right or Share granted before the date of the amendment shall not be reduced or adversely affected without the prior written consent of the Participant affected by the amendment.

SCHEDULE B – FORMULAE FOR NUMBER OF PERFORMANCE RIGHTS

Long Term Incentives

The formula applied for calculating the number of Performance Rights to be granted is:

==> picture [182 x 40] intentionally omitted <==

Where:

TFR = Annual Total Fixed Remuneration[2] as at 1 January 2023, being $400,000;

LTI TIO = Long Term Incentive Total Incentive Opportunity, expressed as a percentage of TFR, being 65%; and

LM8 Share Price = 30 trading day volume weighted average market price of Shares on the ASX to 31 December 2022, being $0.890.

Short Term Incentives

==> picture [182 x 40] intentionally omitted <==

Where:

TFR = Annual Total Fixed Remuneration[2] as at 1 January 2023, being $400,000;

STI TIO = Short Term Incentive Total Incentive Opportunity, expressed as a percentage of TFR, being 65%; and

LM8 Share Price = 30 trading day volume weighted average market price of Shares on the ASX to 31 December 2022, being $0.890.

1 Note, as the next tranche of LTI Performance Rights will only be issued in 18 months’ time by the Company and not 12 months, the amount has been multiplied by 1.5 (18 months/12 months) to ensure an equivalent TFR amount.

2 Total Fixed Remuneration is base salary plus superannuation contribution.

3 Note, as the next tranche of STI Performance Rights will only be issued in 18 months’ time by the Company and not 12 months, the amount has been multiplied by 1.5 (18 months/12 months) to ensure an equivalent TFR amount

SCHEDULE C – PERFORMANCE HURDLES, WEIGHTINGS AND TARGETS FOR PERFORMANCE RIGHTS

Short Term Performance Rights

The Short Term Performance Rights are subject to four separate performance hurdles over an 18 month performance period (1 January 2023 to 30 June 2024) as specified in the table below. The Short Term Performance Rights will also contain an environmental social governance ( ESG ) performance hurdle gateway, namely:

No ESG catastrophic consequence at a Company managed operation in the performance period (or of which the Company becomes aware of in the performance period). In the event of a catastrophic ESG related event, the Board has discretion to reduce the whole or part of the total level of vesting of Short Term Performance Rights based on consideration of the individual’s accountability and responsibility in mitigating the impacts to the Company .“

20% No discovery: 0%
One discovery: 50%
Two discoveries: 75%
3 or more discoveries: 100%
2 discoveries = [50% +
