1. Annual Report

Shareholders will be offered the opportunity to discuss the Annual Report at the Meeting. Copies of the Annual Report can be found on the Company’s website www.minrex.com.au or by contacting the Company on +61 8 9481 0389.

There is no requirement for Shareholders to approve the Annual Report.

Shareholders will be offered the following opportunities:

  • (a) discuss the Annual Report;

  • (b) ask questions about, or make comment on, the management of the Company;

  • (c) ask questions about, or make comment on, the Remuneration Report;

  • (ii) the preparation and content of the Auditor's Report;

  • (iii) the accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of the financial statements; and

In addition to taking questions at the Meeting, written questions to the Chair about the management of the Company, or to the Company's auditor about:

  • (e) the content of the Auditor's Report; and

  • (f) the conduct of the audit of the Financial Report,

may be submitted no later than 5 business days before the Meeting to the Company Secretary at the Company's registered office.

2. Resolution 1 – Adoption of Remuneration Report

Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act provides that the Company is required to put the Remuneration Report to the vote of Shareholders. The Directors' Report contains a Remuneration Report which sets out the remuneration policy for the Company and reports the remuneration arrangements in place for the executive and non-executive directors.

Section 250R(3) of the Corporations Act provides that this Resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors of the Company. Of itself, a failure of Shareholders to pass this Resolution will not require the Directors to alter any of the arrangements in the Remuneration Report.

However, under sections 250U and 250Y of the Corporations Act, Shareholders have the opportunity to remove the Board if the Remuneration Report receives a 'no' vote of 25% or more at two consecutive annual general meetings ( Two Strikes Rule ).

Under the Two Strikes Rule, where a resolution on the Remuneration Report receives a 'no' vote of 25% or more at two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders at the second annual general meeting a resolution on whether another meeting should be held (within 90 days) at which all Directors (other than the Managing Director) who were in office at the date of approval of the applicable Directors' Report must stand for re-election.

8

At the Company’s last annual general meeting, the Remuneration Report was approved by over 75% of Shareholders present and voting. In summary, if the Remuneration Report receives a 'no' vote of 25% or more at this Meeting Shareholders should be aware that if there is a 'no' vote of 25% or more at the next annual general meeting the consequences are that all Directors (other than the Managing Director) may be up for re-election.

The Chair will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders as a whole to ask about, or make comments on the Remuneration Report.

The Chair of the Meeting intends to exercise all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1. If the Chair of the Meeting is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chair is to vote on Resolution 1, by signing and returning the Proxy Form, you are considered to have provided the Chair with an express authorisation for the Chair to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chair’s intention.

3. Resolutions 2 and 3 – Re-election of James Bahen and Glenn Whiddon as Directors

3.1 General

Rule 3.6 of the Constitution provides that one third (or if that is not a whole number, the whole number nearest to one third) of the Directors must retire from office and are eligible for re-election. This rule does not apply to the Managing Director or any director appointed by the Board (and who are required to retire at the next annual general meeting of the company).

Each of Mr Bahen and Mr Whiddon being the longest serving Directors will retire at the Meeting and, being eligible, seeks re-election as a Director.

Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder approval for the election of Mr James Bahen as a Director. The Board (excluding Mr Bahen) recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval for the election of Mr Glenn Whiddon as a Director. The Board (excluding Mr Whiddon) recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.

Resolutions 2 and 3 are each an ordinary resolution.

The Chair intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of Resolutions 2 and 3.

3.2

Mr Bahen is a Corporate Advisory Executive and Chartered Secretary who commenced his career in audit and assurance with a chartered accounting firm.

9

3.3 Independence

If re-elected the Board considers Mr Bahen and Mr Whiddon will be independent Directors.

4. Resolution 4 – Re-election of Mr George Karageorge as a Director

4.1 General

Rule 3.3 of the Constitution gives the Board authority to appoint other Directors at any time. George Karageorge was appointed under Rule 3.3 as a Director on 18 December 2020.

Rule 3.3(a) of the Constitution provides that any Director appointed under Rule 3.3 must retire at the next annual general meeting of the Company and is eligible for re-election at that meeting.

Accordingly, Mr Karageorge will retire at the Meeting and, being eligible, seeks re-election as a Director.

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval for the election of Mr Karageorge as a Director. The Board (excluding Mr Karageorge) recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4.

Resolution 4 is an ordinary resolution.

The Chair intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of Resolution 4.

4.2 Director profile

Mr Karageorge is Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director at Argent Minerals Ltd (ASX: ARD).

4.3 Independence

If re-elected the Board considers Mr Karageorge will be an independent Director.

5. Resolution 5 – Approval of 10% Placement Facility

5.1 General

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of Equity Securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that period.

Under Listing Rule 7.1A, however, an eligible entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25% ( 10% Placement Facility ).

An ‘eligible entity’ means an entity which is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and which has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. The Company is an eligible entity for these purposes. Based on the closing price of the Company's Shares on ASX on 22 October 2021, the Company's market capitalisation is approximately $10.5 million.

Resolution 5 seeks shareholder approval by way of special resolution for the Company to have the additional 10% capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A to issue equity securities without shareholder approval.

10

If Resolution 5 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities up to the combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without any further shareholder approval.

If Resolution 5 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the additional 10% capacity to issue Equity Securities without shareholder approval provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A and will remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing equity securities without shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.

The exact number of Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Facility will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to Section 5.2(c) below).

The Company intends to further its exploration activities at the Company’s current projects including the exploration activities on the Sofala Projects and farm-in obligations in respect of the Sofala Farm-in Rights and the Sunny Corner Farm-in Rights. The Company may use the 10% Placement Facility for these purposes and to provide general working capital.

Resolution 5 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative).

The Directors believe that Resolution 5 is in the best interests of the Company and unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5.

5.2 Description of Listing Rule 7.1A

  • (a) Shareholder approval

The ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility is subject to shareholder approval by way of a special resolution at an annual general meeting.

  • (b) Equity Securities

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

The Company, as at the date of the Notice, has one class of quoted Equity Securities, being the Shares.

  • (c)

Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility

Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that eligible entities which have obtained shareholder approval at an annual general meeting may, during the period of approval, issue or agree to issue, a number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:

(A x D) – E

Where:

A is the number of Shares on issue at the commencement of the relevant period:

  • plus the number of 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/agreed to be issued before the commencement of the relevant period; or the issues/agreement to issue the convertible securities was approved or taken under the Listing Rules to have been approved under Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.4;

11

  • plus the number of Shares issued in the relevant period under an agreement to issue securities within Listing Rule 7.2 exception 16 where the agreement was entered into before the commencement of the relevant period; or the agreement was approved or taken under the Listing Rules to have been approved under Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.4;

  • plus the number of any other Shares issued in the relevant period with approval of holders of Shares under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4

  • plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the relevant period;

  • less the number of Shares cancelled in the relevant period.

Where the relevant period means the 12 month period preceding the date of the issue/agreement to issue the Equity Securities.

Note that A has the same meaning in Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating an entity's 15% placement capacity.

  • 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 Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.4.

5.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, information is provided in relation to the approval of the 10% Placement Facility as follows:

  • (a) Period for which 10% Placement Facility will be valid

Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under Listing Rule 7.1A will be valid from the date of the Meeting and will expire on the earlier to occur of:

  • (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the Meeting;

  • (ii) the time and date of the Company's next annual general meeting; or

  • (iii) the time and date of the approval by shareholders of a transaction under Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking),

( 10% Placement Period ).

  • (b) Minimum 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 immediately before:

  • (i) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed by the Company and the recipient of the Equity Securities; or

  • (ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 Trading Days of the date in subparagraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

12

  • (c) Purpose of funds raised

The Company may only seek to issue the Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility for cash consideration. The Company intends to use funds raised towards further exploration activities at the Company’s current projects, including the Sofala Farm-in Rights and the Sunny Corner Farm-in Rights, for evaluating additional acquisition opportunities and to maintain a strong working capital position.

  • (d) Risk of economic and voting dilution

If Resolution 5 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility, the existing Shareholders' voting power in the Company will be diluted as shown in the below table. There is a risk that:

  • (i) the market price for the Company's Equity Securities in that class may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than on the date of the Meeting; and

  • (ii) 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,

which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the Equity Securities.

The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of ordinary securities for variable "A" calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A(2) as at the date of this Notice.

The table also shows:

  • (iii) two examples where variable “A” has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable “A” is based on the number of ordinary securities the Company has on issue. The number of ordinary securities on issue may increase as a result of issues of ordinary securities that do not require Shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or future specific placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders’ meeting; and

  • (iv) two examples of where the issue price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.

The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

  • (v) The Company issues/agrees to issue the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility.

  • (vi) The issue/agreement to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares.

  • (xi) The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Facility, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.

6. Resolution 6 – Approval to issue Incentive Performance Rights to Mr George Karageorge

6.1 General

On 11 June 2021, the Company announced that, further to the recent appointment of Non-Executive Director George Karageorge, as part of the remuneration package aligned with each of other NonExecutive Directors (being $2,000 per month) the Company has agreed subject to shareholder approval to grant Mr Karageorge 5,000,000 Class E Incentive Performance Rights on the same terms as the Company’s existing Performance Rights on issue (each converting into shares on a 1 for 1 basis on the 20-day VWAP of the Company shares reaching $0.04 at any time prior to 16 September 2025).

The proposed issue of Incentive Performance Rights to Mr Karageorge provides a cost-effective incentive based form of remuneration (particularly when coupled with the reduced director fees agreed with each Director) and is intended to reward and incentivise Mr Karageorge for delivering value to Shareholders. Mr Karageorge was appointed as a Non-Executive Director on 18 December 2020 and did not receive any remuneration prior to that date.

The securities held by Mr Karageorge as at the date of this Notice is set out below:

Director Shares Options
George Karageorge 1,750,000 875,000

6.2 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

15

  • (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 Incentive Performance Rights constitutes the giving of a financial benefit, and Mr Karageorge is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director.

In relation to the securities proposed to be issued to Mr Karageorge, the Board (with Mr Karageorge not participating or being present during the consideration of the proposed issue of securities) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporation Act is not required in respect of the issue of the issue of Incentive Performance Rights because the agreement to grant such securities, reached as part of the remuneration package for Mr Karageorge, is considered reasonable remuneration in the circumstances and was negotiated on an arm’s length basis.

6.3

Listing Rule 10.11

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that a company must not (subject to specified exceptions) issue or agree to issue equity securities to a related party without the approval of shareholders. Mr Karageorge is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director. Therefore, approval is required under Listing Rule 10.11 for the issue of Incentive Performance Rights to Mr Karageorge.

Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11 for the issue of the Incentive Performance Rights to Mr Karageorge. If approval is given under Listing Rule 10.11, Shareholder approval is not required under Listing Rule 7.1. Furthermore, Shareholder approval of the issue of the Incentive Performance Rights means that this issue will not reduce the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 6 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Incentive Performance Rights to Mr Karageorge. If Resolution 6 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Incentive Performance Rights to Mr Karageorge, and the Company may need to seek alternative means of raising capital and re-negotiate the remuneration packages received by a Director.

Resolution 6 is an ordinary resolution.

The Chair intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of Resolution 6.

8. Resolution 8 – Ratification of prior issue of Securities to Mr Pedro Kastellorizos

8.1 General

On 13 May 2021, the Company issued to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr Pedro Kastellorizos, the following securities ( CEO Securities ) in connection with his appointment as Chief Executive Officer of the Company:

  • (a) 1,000,000 Incentive Options (comprising 500,000 Class A Incentive Options and 500,000 Class B Incentive Options); and

  • (b) 4,000,000 Incentive Performance Rights (comprising 500,000 Class A Incentive Performance Rights, 500,000 Class B Incentive Performance Rights, 1,000,000 Class C Incentive Performance Rights, 1,000,000 Class D Incentive Performance Rights, 500,000 Class E Incentive Performance Rights and 500,000 Class F Incentive Performance Rights).

Refer to the Company’s ASX released dated 13 May 2021 for the material terms of Mr Kastellorizos’ engagement with the Company.

8.2

Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4

Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not (subject to specified exceptions), without the approval of shareholders, issue or agree to issue during any 12 month period any equity securities, or other securities with rights to conversion to equity (such as an option), if the number of those securities exceeds 15% of the number of ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made (pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 or the additional 10% capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A). If shareholders approve such an issue, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company's capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

The issue of the CEO Securities does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date of issue of the CEO Securities.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the CEO Securities.

If Resolution 7 is passed, the CEO Securities will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the CEO Securities.

If Resolution 7 is not passed, the CEO Securities will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the CEO Securities.

Resolution 7 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the CEO Securities. Resolution 7 is an ordinary resolution.

The Chair intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 7.

8.3 Technical Information required by Listing Rule 7.5

The following information is provided in relation to Resolution 7:

  • (a) The CEO Securities were issued to Mr Kastellorizos’ nominee, Bluekebble Pty Ltd (an entity controlled by Mr Kastellorizos), who is not a related party of the Company, a member of the Company or a substantial holder of the Company. As set out in Section 8.1, Mr Kastellorizos is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and is therefore a member of the Company’s key management personnel (and Bluekebble Pty Ltd is an associate of Mr Kastellorizos).

  • (c) The full terms and conditions of the Incentive Options are set out in Schedule 1. The full terms and conditions of the Incentive Performance Rights are set out in Schedule 2. Shares issued on exercise of the Incentive Options and conversion of the Incentive Performance Rights will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company ranking equally in all respects with the Company’s existing Shares on issue.
