By ratifying this issue, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Shares issued under the Placement will be included in the Company's 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of such Shares.

Resolution 1 is an ordinary resolution.

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.

5.1. General

The Company considers that it is desirable to maintain a securities incentive plan pursuant to which the Company can issue Securities to eligible Directors, employees and consultants in order to attract, motivate and retain such persons and to provide them with an incentive to deliver growth and value to all Shareholders.

Accordingly, Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval for the adoption of the employee securities incentive plan titled “Meteoric Resources NL Employee Securities Incentive Plan" ( Plan ) in accordance with Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b).

Under the Plan, the Board may offer to eligible persons the opportunity to subscribe for such number of Securities in the Company as the Board may decide and on the terms set out in the rules of the Plan, a summary of which is set out in Schedule 2.

In addition, a copy of the Plan is available for review by Shareholders at the registered office of the Company until the date of the Meeting. A copy of the Plan can also be sent to Shareholders upon request to the Company Secretary. Shareholders are invited to contact the Company if they have any queries or concerns.

A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is provided in Section 2.1. Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13(b) provides an exception to Listing Rule 7.1 by which equity securities issued under an employee incentive scheme are exempt for a period of 3 years from the date on which shareholders approve the issue of equity securities under the scheme as an exception to Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 6 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Securities under the Plan to eligible participants over a period of 3 years without impacting on the Company's ability to issue up to 15% of its total ordinary securities without Shareholder approval in any 12 month period.

No Securities have been issued under the proposed Plan as it is a new employee incentive plan and has not previously been approved by Shareholders. Subject to the passing of resolution 6, the maximum number of securities proposed to be issued immediately following adoption of the Plan is 45 million equity securities. Prior Shareholder approval will be required under Listing Rule 10.14 before any Director or related party of the Company can participate in the Plan. Pursuant to the Listing Rules, Shareholders must re-approve the Plan and all unissued Securities issuable pursuant thereto every 3 years. If resolution 6 is not passed, any issue of securities made pursuant to the plan (other than to Related Parties) will be deducted from the Company’s 15% placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 6 is an ordinary resolution

6. Resolutions 7 to 10 - Issue of Director Performance Rights – Mr Patrick Burke, Dr Andrew Tunks, Ms Shastri Ramnath and Dr Paul Kitto

6.1. General

Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval for the adoption of the Meteoric Resources NL Employee Securities Incentive Plan ( Plan ). The aim of the Plan is to allow the Board to assist eligible persons under the Plan, who in the Board’s opinion, are dedicated and will provide ongoing commitment and effort to the Company. Eligible persons are full-time or permanent part-time employees of the Company or a related body corporate (which includes Directors, the company secretary and officers), or such other persons as the Board determines.

To achieve its corporate objectives, the Company needs to attract and retain its key staff. The Board believes that grants made to eligible persons under the Plan provides a powerful tool to underpin the Company's employment and engagement strategy, and that the implementation of the plan will:

Page 12

GLOSSARY

  • enable the Company to recruit, incentivise and retain key personnel and other employees needed to achieve the Company's business objectives;

  • link the reward of key staff with the achievements of strategic goals and the long term performance of the Company;

  • align the financial interest of participants in the Plan with those of Shareholders; and

  • provide incentives to participants in the Plan to focus on superior performance that creates Shareholder value.

The key features of the Plan are as follows:

  • The Board will determine (in its sole discretion) the number of incentive securities to be granted to eligible persons under the plan (or their nominees) and the performance milestones, vesting conditions (if any) and expiry date of such incentive securities.

  • The incentive securities are not transferable unless the Board determines otherwise or the transfer is required by law and provided that the transfer complies with the Corporations Act.

  • Subject to the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules and restrictions on reducing the rights of a holder of incentive securities, the Board will have the power to amend the Plan as it sees fit.

A detailed overview of the terms of the Plan is set out in Schedule 2. A copy of the Plan can be obtained by contacting the Company.

The Company is proposing to issue up to a total of 19,000,000 Performance Rights expiring 2 years from the date of issue for nil consideration to Directors of the Company under the Plan to provide long term incentives linked to the performance of the Company ( Director Performance Rights ). The full terms and conditions of the Director Performance Rights are set out in Schedule 3.

6.2. Chapter 2E and ASX Listing Rule 10.14

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 issue of the Director Performance Rights pursuant to the Plan constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mr Burke, Dr Tunks, Ms Ramnath and Dr Kitto who are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.

In addition, ASX Listing Rule 10.14 also requires Shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities under an employee incentive scheme to a related party, or a person whose relationship with the entity or a related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained unless an exception in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 applies.

The proposed issue of Director Performance Rights to the Related Parties requires the Company to obtain Shareholder approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.14 because it will result in the Company issuing securities to a related party of the Company under an employee incentive scheme. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought pursuant ASX Listing Rule 10.14 (in accordance with the provisions of Listing Rule 10.15).

Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required in order to issue the Shares to the Related Parties as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.14. Accordingly, the issue of the Director Performance Rights to the Related Parties will not be included in the 15% calculation of the Company’s annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. If Resolutions 7 to 10 are not passed the Company will not be able to issue the Director Performance Rights to the Directors and will need to consider additional methods of appropriately incentivising the Board.

Resolutions 7 to 10 are ordinary resolutions.

6.3. Technical information required by Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.14

GLOSSARY

  • (o) Mr Patrick Burke declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 7 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution. However, in respect of Resolutions 8 to 10, he recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of that Resolution for the following reasons:

  • a. the Performance Rights will align the interests of the Eligible Participants with those of Shareholders by creating a stronger link between performance resulting in increased Shareholder value and reward to the Eligible Participant. Each Eligible Participant will have a greater involvement with, and share in, any future growth and profitability of the Company; and

  • b. the provision of the Performance Rights is a reasonable and appropriate method to provide benefits to the Eligible Participants as the non-cash form of this benefit will allow the Company to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on its operations than it would if alternative cash benefits were given to the Eligible Participants;

  • (p) Dr Andrew Tunks declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 8 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution. However, in respect of Resolutions 7, 9 and 10, he recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of that Resolution for the reasons set out in paragraph (o);

  • (q) Dr Paul Kitto declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 9 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution.

the Board is not aware of any other information that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to allow them to make a decision whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass Resolutions 7 to 10.

6.4. Valuation of Director Performance Rights

Internal management of the Company have considered the indicative theoretical value attributable to the Director Performance Rights at a valuation date of 8 July 2020 to be as follows::

Item Director Performance Rights
Underlying security spot price $ 0.036
Exercise Price Nil
Valuation Date 8-Jul-20
Commencement of performance period 12-Aug-20
Expiration date 11-Aug-22
Performance/vesting period (years) 2.00
Share price volatility 128%
Risk-free rate 0.26%
Dividend yield Nil
Number of Rights 20,000,000
Valuation per Right $ 0.036
Valuation per Tranche $ 720,000

Australian Accounting Standards require the Director Performance Rights to be expensed over the vesting period in accordance with AASB 2 – Share Based Payments. The Director Performance Rights are expected to be expensed over the relevant vesting period. Expensing the Director Performance Rights will have the effect of increasing both expenses and the equity of the Company. There will be no impact on the net assets, cash position or financial resources of the Company as a result of expensing the Director Performance Rights.

7. Resolution 11 – Grant of Director Performance Rights to Advisors

7.1. General

The Company proposes to grant a total of 17,000,000 Performance Rights to its key external corporate advisers for a subscription price of $0.00001 per Performance Rights and contain the same performance milestone as set out in 6.1 above ( Advisor Performance Rights ). The full terms and conditions of the Advisor Performance Rights are set out in Schedule 3 to the Explanatory Memorandum.

Page 15

GLOSSARY

The Board considers the use of performance rights as an incentivisation tool to its corporate advisors who have the experience, skills and knowledge in the fields of investor awareness and media dissemination to aid in the Company’s corporate objectives. In addition, the use of performance rights will allow the Company to retain its cash to maximise exploration expenditure.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 broadly provides that a company can issue Equity Securities up to 15% of its issued capital in any 12 month period without shareholder approval. Subject to certain exceptions, prior shareholder approval is required for any issue of Equity Securities where the securities proposed to be issued (when aggregated with other Equity Securities issued by the company not under an exception and not with shareholder approval) represent more than 15% of the company’s issued capital.

The effect of Shareholders approving Resolution 11 will be to allow the Company to issue the Advisor Performance Rights during the period of 3 months after the Meeting (or a longer period, if allowed by ASX), without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity. The effect of Shareholders passing Resolution 11 will be to allow the Company to grant the Advisor Performance Rights without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1. If resolution 11 is not passed, the issue of Performance Rights to unrelated advisers will not proceed.

Resolution 11 is an ordinary resolution.

SCHEDULE 2

SUMMARY OF PERFORMANCE RIGHTS PLAN

A summary of the terms of the Meteoric Resources NL Employee Securities Incentive Plan is set out below

1. Eligible Participant

Eligible Participant means a person who is a full-time or part-time employee, officer, or contractor of the Company, or an Associated Body Corporate (as defined in ASIC Class Order 14/1000), or such other person who has been determined by the Board to be eligible to participate in the Plan from time to time.

The Company will seek Shareholder approval for Director and related party participation in accordance with Listing Rule 10.14.

2. Purpose

The purpose of the Plan is to:

(a) assist in the reward, retention and motivation of Eligible Participants; (b) link the reward of Eligible Participants to Shareholder value creation; and (c) align the interests of Eligible Participants with shareholders of the Group (being the Company and each of its Associated Bodies Corporate), by providing an opportunity to Eligible Participants to receive an equity interest in the Company in the form of Securities.

3. Plan administration

The Plan will be administered by the Board. The Board may exercise any power or discretion conferred on it by the Plan rules in its sole and absolute discretion. The Board may delegate its powers and discretion.

4. Eligibility, invitation and application

The Board may from time to time determine that an Eligible Participant may participate in the Plan and make an invitation to that Eligible Participant to apply for Securities on such terms and conditions as the Board decides.

On receipt of an Invitation, an Eligible Participant may apply for the Securities the subject of the invitation by sending a completed application form to the Company. The Board may accept an application from an Eligible Participant in whole or in part.

If an Eligible Participant is permitted in the invitation, the Eligible Participant may, by notice in writing to the Board, nominate a party in whose favour the Eligible Participant wishes to renounce the invitation.

5. Grant of Securities

The Company will, to the extent that it has accepted a duly completed application, grant the Participant the relevant number of Securities, subject to the terms and conditions set out in the invitation, the Plan rules and any ancillary documentation required.

6. Terms of Convertible Securities

Each 'Convertible Security' represents a right to acquire one or more Shares (for example, under an option or performance right), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. Prior to a Convertible Security being exercised a Participant does not have any interest (legal, equitable or otherwise) in any Share the subject of the Convertible Security by virtue of holding the Convertible Security. A Participant may not sell, assign, transfer, grant a security interest over or otherwise deal with a Convertible Security that has been granted to them unless otherwise determined by the Board. A Participant must not enter into any arrangement for the purpose of hedging their economic exposure to a Convertible Security that has been granted to them.

7. Vesting of Convertible Securities

Any vesting conditions applicable to the grant of Convertible Securities will be described in the invitation. If all the vesting conditions are satisfied and/or otherwise waived by the Board, a vesting notice will be sent to the Participant by the Company informing them that the relevant Convertible Securities have vested. Unless and until the vesting notice is issued by the Company, the Convertible Securities will not be considered to have vested. For the avoidance of doubt, if the vesting conditions relevant to a Convertible Security are not satisfied and/or otherwise waived by the Board, that Convertible Security will lapse. 8. Exercise of Convertible Securities and cashless exercise To exercise a Convertible Security, the Participant must deliver a signed notice of exercise and, subject to a cashless exercise of Convertible Securities (see below), pay the exercise price (if any) to or as directed by the Company, at any time following vesting of the Convertible Security (if subject to vesting conditions) and prior to the expiry date as set out in the invitation or vesting notice.

An invitation may specify that at the time of exercise of the Convertible Securities, the Participant may elect not to be required to provide payment of the exercise price for the number of Convertible Securities specified in a notice of exercise, but that on exercise of those Convertible Securities the Company will transfer or issue to the Participant that number of Shares equal in value to the positive difference between the Market Value of the Shares at the time of exercise and the exercise price that would otherwise be payable to exercise those Convertible Securities. Market Value means, at any given date, the volume weighted average price per Share traded on the ASX over the 5 trading days immediately preceding that given date, unless otherwise specified in an invitation. A Convertible Security may not be exercised unless and until that Convertible Security has vested in accordance with the Plan rules, or such earlier date as set out in the Plan rules. 9. Delivery of Shares on exercise of Convertible Securities As soon as practicable after the valid exercise of a Convertible Security by a Participant, the Company will issue or cause to be transferred to that Participant the number of Shares to which the Participant is entitled under the Plan rules and issue a substitute certificate for any remaining unexercised Convertible Securities held by that Participant. 10. Forfeiture of Convertible Securities

Page 19

SCHEDULE 2

Where a Participant who holds Convertible Securities ceases to be an Eligible Participant or becomes insolvent, all unvested Convertible Securities will automatically be forfeited by the Participant, unless the Board otherwise determines in its discretion to permit some or all of the Convertible Securities to vest.

Where the Board determines that a Participant has acted fraudulently or dishonestly; committed an act which has brought the Company, the Group or any entity within the Group into disrepute, or wilfully breached his or her duties to the Group or where a Participant is convicted of an offence in connection with the affairs of the Group; or has a judgment entered against him or her in any civil proceedings in respect of the contravention by the Participant of his or her duties at law, in equity or under statute, in his or her capacity as an employee, consultant or officer of the Group, the Board may in its discretion deem all unvested Convertible Securities held by that Participant to have been forfeited.

Unless the Board otherwise determines, or as otherwise set out in the Plan rules:

  • (a) any Convertible Securities which have not yet vested will be forfeited immediately on the date that the Board determines (acting reasonably and in good faith) that any applicable vesting conditions have not been met or cannot be met by the relevant date; and

  • (b) any Convertible Securities which have not yet vested will be automatically forfeited on the expiry date specified in the invitation or vesting notice.

11. Change of control

If a change of control event occurs in relation to the Company, or the Board determines that such an event is likely to occur, the Board may in its discretion determine the manner in which any or all of the Participant's Convertible Securities will be dealt with, including, without limitation, in a manner that allows the Participant to participate in and/or benefit from any transaction arising from or in connection with the change of control event provided that, in respect of Convertible Securities, the maximum number of Convertible Securities (that have not yet been exercised) that the Board may determine will vest and be exercisable into Shares under this Rule is that number of Convertible Securities that is equal to 10% of the Shares on issue immediately following vesting under this Rule, which as far as practicable will be allocated between holders on a pro-rata basis on the basis of their holdings of Convertible Securities on the date of determination of vesting.

12. Rights attaching to Plan Shares

All Shares issued or transferred under the Plan, or issued or transferred to a Participant upon the valid exercise of a Convertible Security, ( Plan Shares ) will rank pari passu in all respects with the Shares of the same class. A Participant will be entitled to any dividends declared and distributed by the Company on the Plan Shares and may participate in any dividend reinvestment plan operated by the Company in respect of Plan Shares. A Participant may exercise any voting rights attaching to Plan Shares.

13. Disposal restrictions on Plan Shares

If the invitation provides that any Plan Shares are subject to any restrictions as to the disposal or other dealing by a Participant for a period, the Board may implement any procedure it deems appropriate to ensure the compliance by the Participant with this restriction.

For so long as a Plan Share is subject to any disposal restrictions under the Plan, the Participant will not:

  • (a) transfer, encumber or otherwise dispose of, or have a security interest granted over that Plan Share; or

  • (b) take any action or permit another person to take any action to remove or circumvent the disposal restrictions without the express written consent of the Company.

14. Adjustment of Convertible Securities

If there is a reorganisation of the issued share capital of the Company (including any subdivision, consolidation, reduction, return or cancellation of such issued capital of the Company), the rights of each Participant holding Convertible Securities will be changed to the extent necessary to comply with the Listing Rules applicable to a reorganisation of capital at the time of the reorganisation.

If Shares are issued by the Company by way of bonus issue (other than an issue in lieu of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment), the holder of Convertible Securities is entitled, upon exercise of the Convertible Securities, to receive an issue of as many additional Shares as would have been issued to the holder if the holder held Shares equal in number to the Shares in respect of which the Convertible Securities are exercised.

Unless otherwise determined by the Board, a holder of Convertible Securities does not have the right to participate in a pro rata issue of Shares made by the Company or sell renounceable rights.

15. Participation in new issues

There are no participation rights or entitlements inherent in the Convertible Securities and holders are not entitled to participate in any new issue of Shares of the Company during the currency of the Convertible Securities without exercising the Convertible Securities.

16. Compliance with applicable law

No Security may be offered, grated, vested or exercised if to do so would contravene any applicable law. In particular, the Company must have reasonable grounds to believe, when making an invitation, that the total number of Plan Shares that may be issued upon exercise of Convertible Securities offer when aggregated with the number of Shares issued or that may be issued as a result of offers made at any time during the previous three year period under:

  • an employee incentive scheme of the Company covered by ASIC Class Order 14/1000; or

  • an ASIC exempt arrangement of a similar kind to an employee incentive scheme,

but disregarding any offer made or securities issued in the capital of the Company by way of or as a result of:

  • (i) an offer to a person situated at the time of receipt of the offer outside Australia;

  • an offer that did not need disclosure to investors because of section 708 of the Corporations Act (exempts the requirement for a disclosure document for the issue of securities in certain circumstances to investors who are deemed to have sufficient investment knowledge to make informed decisions, including professional investors, sophisticated investors and senior managers of the Company); or

  • an offer made under a disclosure document,

Page 20

SCHEDULE 2

would exceed 5% (or such other maximum permitted under any applicable law) of the total number of Shares on issue at the date of the invitation.

17. Maximum number of Securities

The Company will not make an invitation under the Plan if the number of Plan Shares that may be issued, or acquired upon exercise of Convertible Securities offered under an invitation, when aggregated with the number of Shares issued or that may be issued as a result of all invitations under the Plan, will exceed 15% of the total number of issued Shares at the date of the invitation.

18. Amendment of Plan

Subject to the following paragraph, the Board may at any time amend any provisions of the Plan rules, including (without limitation) the terms and conditions upon which any Securities have been granted under the Plan and determine that any amendments to the Plan rules be given retrospective effect, immediate effect or future effect.

No amendment to any provision of the Plan rules may be made if the amendment materially reduces the rights of any Participant as they existed before the date of the amendment, other than an amendment introduced primarily for the purpose of complying with legislation or to correct manifest error or mistake, amongst other things, or is agreed to in writing by all Participants.

19. Plan duration

The Plan continues in operation until the Board decides to end it. The Board may from time to time suspend the operation of the Plan for a fixed period or indefinitely, and may end any suspension. If the Plan is terminated or suspended for any reason, that termination or suspension must not prejudice the accrued rights of the Participants.

If a Participant and the Company (acting by the Board) agree in writing that some or all of the Securities granted to that Participant are to be cancelled on a specified date or on the occurrence of a particular event, then those Securities may be cancelled in the manner agreed between the Company and the Participant.

20. Income Tax Assessment Act

The Plan is a plan to which Subdivision 83A-C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Cth) applies (subject to the conditions in that Act).
