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.

1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND REPORTS In accordance with the Corporations Act, the business of the Meeting will include receipt and consideration of the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2022 together with the declaration of the Directors, the Directors’ report, the Remuneration Report and the auditor’s report. The Company will not provide a hard copy of the Company’s annual financial report to Shareholders unless specifically requested to do so. The Company’s annual financial report is available on its website at https://www.miramarresources.com.au/ . 2. RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT 2.1 General

The Corporations Act requires that at a listed company’s annual general meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted must be put to the shareholders. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the company or the directors of the company.

The remuneration report sets out the company’s remuneration arrangements for the directors and senior management of the company. The remuneration report is part of the directors’ report contained in the annual financial report of the company for a financial year.

The chair of the meeting must allow a reasonable opportunity for its shareholders to ask questions about or make comments on the remuneration report at the annual general meeting. 2.2 Voting consequences

A company is required to put to its shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of another meeting of shareholders to consider the appointment of directors of the company ( Spill Resolution ) if, at consecutive annual general meetings, at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report and at the first of those annual general meetings a Spill Resolution was not put to vote. If required, the Spill Resolution must be put to vote at the second of those annual general meetings.

If more than 50% of votes cast are in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene a shareholder meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting.

All of the directors of the company who were in office when the directors' report (as included in the company’s annual financial report for the most recent financial year) was approved, other than the managing director of the company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting.

Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election as directors of the company is approved will be the directors of the company.

2.3 Previous voting results

At the Company’s previous annual general meeting the votes cast against the remuneration report considered at that annual general meeting were less than 25%. Accordingly, the Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Meeting.

3. RESOLUTION 2 – RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTOR – MARION BUSH

3.1 General

The Constitution sets out the requirements for determining which Directors are to retire by rotation at an annual general meeting.

Marion Bush, who has served as a Director since 3 March 2020 and was last re-elected on 27 August 2020, retires by rotation and seeks re-election.

3.2 Qualifications and other material directorships

Ms Bush is a geologist with over 25 years’ experience in senior management, directorship, commercial management, analyst and marketing roles within the UK, Australia, Africa, and South America. She was the former CEO of TSX-V listed Cassidy Gold Corp and a former Mining Analyst.

Ms Bush holds a Bachelor of Science (Geology) from Curtin University, a Master of Science (Mineral Project Appraisal) from the University of London (Imperial College) and is Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists (AIG).

5

3.3 Independence

If re-elected the Board does not consider Marion Bush to be an independent Director.

3.4 Board recommendation

The Board has reviewed Marion Bush’s performance since her appointment to the Board and considers that their skills and experience will continue to enhance the Board’s ability to perform its role. Accordingly, the Board supports the re-election of Marion Bush and recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

4. RESOLUTION 3 – ADOPTION OF INCENTIVE PERFORMANCE RIGHTS PLAN

4.1 General

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval for the adoption of the employee incentive scheme titled “Incentive Performance Rights Plan” ( Performance Rights Plan ) and for the issue of up to a maximum of 4,000,000 Performance Rights under the Performance Rights Plan in accordance with Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)).

The objective of the Performance Rights Plan is to attract, motivate and retain key employees and the Company considers that the adoption of the Performance Rights Plan and the future issue of Performance Rights under the Performance Rights Plan will provide selected employees with the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company.

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 shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)) provides that Listing Rule 7.1 does not apply to an issue of securities under an employee incentive scheme if, within three years before the date of issue of the securities, the holders of the entity’s ordinary securities have approved the issue of equity securities under the scheme as exception to Listing Rule 7.1.

Exception 13(b) is only available if and to the extent that the number of equity securities issued under the scheme does not exceed the maximum number set out in the entity’s notice of meeting dispatched to shareholders in respect of the meeting at which shareholder approval was obtained pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b). Exception 13(b) also ceases to be available if there is a material change to the terms of the scheme from those set out in the notice of meeting.

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Performance Rights under the Performance Rights Plan to eligible participants over a period of 3 years. The issue of any Performance Rights to eligible participants under the Performance Rights Plan (up to the maximum number of Performance Rights stated in Section (c) below) will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company must seek Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14 in respect of any future issues of Performance Rights under the Plan to a related party or a person whose relationship with the Company or the related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained.

If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of Performance Rights under the Performance Rights Plan to eligible participants, but any issues of Performance Rights will reduce, to that extent, the Company’s capacity to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12-month period following the issue of the Performance Rights.

  • 4.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13)

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13), the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 3:

  • (a) a summary of the key terms and conditions of the Performance Rights Plan is set out in Schedule 1;

  • (b) the Company has not issued any Performance Rights under the Performance Rights Plan as this is the first time that Shareholder approval is being sought for the adoption of the Performance Rights Plan; and

  • (c) the maximum number of Securities proposed to be issued under the Performance Rights Plan, following Shareholder approval, is 4,000,000 Performance Rights which includes the Performance Rights proposed to be issued under Resolutions Resolution 4 and Resolution 5. It is not envisaged that the maximum number of Securities for which approval is sought will be issued immediately.

6

5. RESOLUTION 4 AND RESOLUTION 5 – ISSUE OF INCENTIVE PERFORMANCE RIGHTS TO DIRECTOR – ALLAN KELLY AND MARION BUSH

5.1 General

The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval and to the adoption of the Performance Rights Plan (refer Resolution 3), to issue up to $90,000 Performance Rights to Allan Kelly and Marion Bush (or their nominees) ( Related Parties ) pursuant to the Incentive Performance Rights Plan ( Performance Rights Plan ) and on the terms and conditions set out below ( Incentive Performance Rights ).

5.2 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act requires that 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 Incentive Performance Rights to the Related Parties constitutes giving a financial benefit and each of the Related Parties is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director.

As the Incentive Performance Rights are proposed to be issued to all of the Directors other than Terry Gadenne, the Directors are unable to form a quorum to consider whether one of the exceptions set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act applies to the issue of the Incentive Performance Rights. Accordingly, Shareholder approval for the issue of Incentive Performance Rights to the Related Parties is sought in accordance with Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

5.3 Listing Rule 10.14

Listing Rule 10.14 provides that an entity must not permit any of the following persons to acquire equity securities under an employee incentive scheme without the approval of the holders of its ordinary securities:

  • 10.14.1 a director of the entity;

  • 10.14.2 an associate of a director of the entity; or

10.14.3 a person whose relationship with the entity or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.14.1 to 10.14.2 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the acquisition should be approved by security holders.

The issue of Incentive Performance Rights to the Related Parties falls within Listing Rule 10.14.1 and therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.14.

Resolutions Resolution 4 and Resolution 5 seek the required Shareholder approval for the issue of the Incentive Performance Rights under and for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.14.

5.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 4 and/or Resolution 5 are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Incentive Performance Rights to the Related Parties under the Performance Rights Plan within three years after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules). As approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Incentive Performance Rights (because approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.14), the issue of the Incentive Performance Rights will not use up any of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.

If Resolution 4 and/or Resolution 5 are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Incentive Performance Rights to the Related Parties under the Performance Rights Plan and will need to identify other alternatives to incentive these key executives.

5.5 Technical information required by Listing Rule 10.15 and section 219 of the Corporations Act

Pursuant to and in accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 10.15 and section 219 of the Corporations Act, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 4 and Resolution 5:

(a) the Incentive Performance Rights will be issued to the following persons:

(i) Allan Kelly (or their nominee(s)) pursuant to Resolution 4; and

  • (ii) Marion Bush (or their nominee) pursuant to Resolution 5,

each of whom falls within the category set out in Listing Rule 10.14.1 by virtue of being a Director;

7

  • (b) the maximum number of Incentive Performance Rights to be issued to the Related Parties (being the nature of the financial benefit proposed to be given) is 1,046,513 comprising:

  • (c) as this is the first time that the Shareholder approval is being sought for the adoption of the Performance Rights Plan, no Performance Rights have been previously issued under the Performance Rights Plan;

  • (d) a summary of the material terms and conditions of the Incentive Performance Rights is set out in Schedule 2;

  • (e) the Incentive Performance Rights are unquoted securities. The Company has chosen to issue Incentive Performance Rights to the Related Parties for the following reasons:

  • (i) the Incentive Performance Rights are unquoted; therefore, the issue of the Incentive Performance Rights has no immediate dilutionary impact on Shareholders;

  • (ii) the milestones attaching to the Incentive Performance Rights will align the interests of the Related Parties with those of Shareholders; and

  • (iii) it is not considered that there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company or benefits foregone by the Company in issuing the Incentive Performance Rights on the terms proposed;

  • (f) the number of Incentive Performance Rights to be issued to each of the Related Parties has been determined based upon a consideration of:

  • (i) current market standards and/or practices of other ASX listed companies of a similar size and stage of development to the Company;

  • (iii) the remuneration of the Related Parties; and

  • (r) Allan Kelly and Marion Bush are executive Directors of the Company and therefore Terry Gadenne believes that the issue of the Incentive Performance Rights to Allan Kelly and Marion Bush is in line with Recommendation 8.2 of the 4th edition of the ASX Corporate Governance Council's Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations. Terry Gadenne considers the issue of the Incentive Performance Rights to Allan Kelly and Marion Bush to be reasonable in the circumstances for the reasons set out in Sections 5.5(f) and 5.5(j);

  • (s) Terry Gadenne recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4 and Resolution 5 for the reasons set out in Section 5.5(e). In forming his recommendation, Terry Gadenne considered the experience of the Related Parties, the current market price of Shares, the current market standards and practices when determining the number of Incentive Performance Rights to be issued to each of the Related Parties, as well as the milestones and expiry date of those Incentive Performance Rights;

  • (t) each Director (other than Terry Gadenne) has a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 4 and Resolution 5 on the basis that the Directors (other than Terry Gadenne) (or their nominees) are to be issued Incentive Performance Rights on the same terms and conditions should Resolution 4 and Resolution 5 be passed. For this reason, the Directors (other than Terry Gadenne) do not believe that it is appropriate to make a recommendation on Resolution 4 and Resolution 5 of this Notice; and

  • (u) the Board is not aware of any other information that is reasonably required by Shareholders to allow them to decide whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass Resolution 4 and Resolution 5.

6. RESOLUTION 6 – APPROVAL OF 7.1A MANDATE

6.1 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.

However, under Listing Rule 7.1A, an eligible entity may seek shareholder approval by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25% ( 7.1A Mandate ).

An ‘eligible entity’ means an entity which is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300,000,000 or less. The Company is an eligible entity for these purposes.

As at the date of this Notice, the Company is an eligible entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a current market capitalisation of $6,432,039 (based on the number of Shares on issue and the closing price of Shares on the ASX on 27 September 2022).

Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval by way of special resolution for the Company to have the additional 10% placement capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval.

If Resolution 6 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 6 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the additional 10% capacity to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under 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.

6.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.1A

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to Resolution 6:

  • (a) Period for which the 7.1A Mandate is valid

The 7.1A Mandate will commence on the date of the Meeting and expire on the first to occur of the following:

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

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

(iii) the time and date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change in the nature or scale of activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of the main undertaking).

  • (b) Minimum price

Any Equity Securities issued under the 7.1A Mandate must be in an existing quoted class of Equity Securities and be issued for cash consideration at a minimum price of 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

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

  • (ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 trading days of the date in Section 6.2(b)(i), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

  • (c) Use of funds raised under the 7.1A Mandate

The Company intends to use funds raised from issues of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate for:

  • (a) continued exploration expenditure on the Company’s current assets/or projects (funds would then be used for project, feasibility studies and ongoing project administration);

  • (b) the development of the Company’s current business; and

  • (c) general working capital.

  • (d) Risk of Economic and Voting Dilution

Any issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue.

If Resolution 6 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 7.1A Mandate, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below.

The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in Listing Rule 7.1A.2, on the basis of the closing market price of Shares and the number of Equity Securities on issue or proposed to be issued as at 27 September 2022.

The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 7.1A Mandate.

*The number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a pro-rata rights issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

The table above uses the following assumptions:

  1. There are currently 70,681,743 Shares on issue comprising 70,681,743 existing Shares as at the date of this Notice;

  2. The issue price set out above is the closing market price of the Shares on the ASX on 27 September 2022 (being $0.091 ).

  3. The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate.

  4. The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

  5. The issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate consists only of Shares. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities. If the issue of Equity Securities includes quoted Options, it is assumed that those quoted Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.

  6. The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.

  7. This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under Listing Rule 7.1 unless otherwise disclosed.

  8. The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.

  9. The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 7.1A Mandate, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.

Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:

(i) the market price for the Company’s Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and

(ii) the Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Shares on the date of issue.

(e) Allocation policy under the 7.1A Mandate

The recipients of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 7.1A Mandate have not yet been determined. However, the recipients of Equity Securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company.

The Company will determine the recipients at the time of the issue under the 7.1A Mandate, having regard to the following factors:

  • (i) the purpose of the issue;

  • (ii) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue, share purchase plan, placement or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;

  • (iii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;

(iv) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company;

  • (v) prevailing market conditions; and

  • (vi) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).

  • (f)

Previous approval under Listing Rule 7.1A

The Company previously obtained approval from its Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 4 November 2021 ( Previous Approval ).

During the 12-month period preceding the date of the Meeting, being on and from 4 November 2021, the Company issued 5,631,010 Shares pursuant to the Previous Approval ( Previous Issue ), which represent approximately 7.65% of the total diluted number of Equity Securities on issue in the Company on 4 November 2021, which was 73,570,100.

Further details of the issues of Equity Securities by the Company pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A.2 during the 12month period preceding the date of the Meeting are set out below.

The Milestones and Expiry Dates for each Class of Rights is set out in section 2 below.

  • (b) Notification to holder

The Company shall notify the holder in writing when the Milestone has been satisfied.

  • (c) Conversion

Subject to paragraph (m), upon vesting, each Performance Right will, within three (3) months from vesting, convert into one (1) Share.

  • (d) Share ranking

All Shares issued upon the vesting of Performance Rights will upon issue rank pari passu in all respects with other Shares.

(e) Application to ASX The Performance Rights will not be quoted on ASX. The Company must apply for the official quotation of a Share issued on conversion of a Performance Right on ASX within the time period required by the ASX Listing Rules.

  • (f) Transfer of Performance Rights

The Performance Rights are not transferable.

  • (g) Lapse of a Performance Right

If the Milestone attached to the relevant Performance Right has not been satisfied within the time period set out in paragraph (a), the relevant Performance Rights will automatically lapse.

  • (h) Participation in new issues

  • A Performance Right does not entitle a holder (in their capacity as a holder of a Performance Right) to participate in new issues of capital offered to holders of Shares such as bonus issues and entitlement issues.

  • (i) Reorganisation of capital If at any time the issued capital of the Company is reconstructed, all rights of a holder will be changed in a manner consistent with the applicable ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act at the time of reorganisation.

  • (j) Adjustment for bonus issue If the Company makes a bonus issue of Shares or other securities to existing shareholders (other than an issue in lieu or in satisfaction of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment) the number of Shares or other securities which must be issued on the conversion of a Performance Right will be increased by the number of Shares or other securities which the holder would have received if the holder had converted the Performance Right before the record date for the bonus issue.

  • (k) Dividend and Voting Rights

  • The Performance Rights do not confer on the holder an entitlement to vote (except as otherwise required by law) or receive dividends.

  • (l) Change in Control

Subject to paragraph (m), upon:

  • (i) a takeover bid under Chapter 6 of the Corporations Act having been made in respect of the Company and:

  • (B) having been declared unconditional by the bidder.

17

  • (ii) a Court granting orders approving a compromise or arrangement for the purposes of or in connection with a scheme of arrangement for the reconstruction of the Company or its amalgamation with any other company or companies,

  • (m) Deferral of conversion if resulting in a prohibited acquisition of Shares

If the conversion of a Performance Right under paragraph (c) or (l) would result in any person being in contravention of section 606(1) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) ( General Prohibition ) then the conversion of that Performance Right shall be deferred until such later time or times that the conversion would not result in a contravention of the General Prohibition. In assessing whether a conversion of a Performance Right would result in a contravention of the General Prohibition:

  • (i) holders may give written notification to the Company if they consider that the conversion of a Performance Right may result in the contravention of the General Prohibition. The absence of such written notification from the holder will entitle the Company to assume the conversion of a Performance Right will not result in any person being in contravention of the General Prohibition; and

  • (ii) the Company may (but is not obliged to) by written notice to a holder request a holder to provide the written notice referred to in paragraph (m)(i) within seven days if the Company considers that the conversion of a Performance Right may result in a contravention of the General Prohibition. The absence of such written notification from the holder will entitle the Company to assume the conversion of a Performance Right will not result in any person being in contravention of the General Prohibition.

(n) Cessation of employment

If a holder ceases employment with the Company, the manner in which any unvested Performance Rights held by the Participant will be dealt with will depend on the circumstances of cessation. If cessation occurs due to resignation or termination for cause, all unvested Performance Rights will automatically lapse.

If cessation occurs for any other reason, the Board may determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, how the unvested Performance Rights will be dealt with, including:

  • (i) allowing some or all of the unvested Performance Rights to continue to be held by the Participant, and be subject to existing Milestones;

  • (ii) undertaking a buy-back of some or all of the unvested Performance Rights; and/or

  • (iii) requiring that any remaining unvested Performance Rights automatically lapse.

  • (p) Rights on winding up

A Performance Right does not entitle the holder to participate in the surplus profits or assets of the Company upon winding up.

Relative TSR
3
The Company’s TSR will be ranked against a peer group
of companies over a three year period
4. To measure
performance and to determine the vesting outcome:

TSR of the companies in the peer group is
calculated;

a percentile analysis is done to determine the
percentile performance of the group in terms of
50th to 75th percentile performance;

the Company’s TSR is calculated to determine what
percentile in the peer group it relates to; and

this percentile determines how many Performance
Rights will vest
Class C 12 months (up to the 30 June 2023) of continuous 30 June 2025

Note:

  1. Total issued to Ms Bush will be pro rata to the number of working days completed during the period from the date of issue to the achievement of Milestones.

  2. The TSR Milestones and corresponding vesting percentages of the Class A Performance Rights are as follow:

Conversion ratio of Performance Rights to Shares available to
Absolute TSR Target vest upon the Milestone being achieved
Below 50% 0%
50% 50%
Between 50% and 75% Pro rata
75% and above 100%

The Company’s Share price baseline for the TSR calculation is $0.086.

  1. The relative TSR Milestones will be assessed against the performance of the peer group of the following 10 listed gold exploration companies of a similar size to Miramar as follows:

  2. i. Zuleika Gold Limited

  3. ii. Wildcat Resources Limited

  4. iii. Sultan Resources Limited

  5. iv. Maximus Resources Limited

  6. v. Caprice Resources Limited

  7. vi. BPM Minerals Limited

  8. vii. Lodestar Minerals Limited

  9. viii. Empire Resources Limited

  10. ix. Sipa Resources Limited

  11. x. Alchemy Resources Limited

The vesting schedule for the Class B Performance Rights and corresponding vesting percentages are as follows:

Relative TSR Target against Conversion ratio of Class B Performance Rights to Shares
median performance of peer available to vest upon the Milestone being achieved
group
Below 50% 0%
50% 50%
Between 50% and 75% Pro rata
75% and above 100%

(each referred to as a Milestone ).

(b)

Delivery of Shares on conversion

As soon as practicable after the valid conversion of a Performance Right by a holder in accordance with the Plan, the Company will:

  • (i) issue, allocate or cause to be transferred to that holder the number of Shares to which the holder is entitled; and

  • (ii) issue a substitute certificate for any remaining unconverted Performance Rights held by that Participant.

(c) After Conversion

The Shares issued on conversion of the Performance Rights will, as and from 5:00pm (WST) on the date of issue, rank equally with and confer rights identical with all other Shares then on issue and application will be made by the Company to ASX for official quotation of the Shares issued upon conversion.

SCHEDULE 3 – VALUATION OF INCENTIVE PERFORMANCE RIGHTS

The Incentive Performance Rights to be issued to the Related Parties pursuant to Resolution 4 to Resolution 5 have been independently valued.

Using the Black & Scholes model and based on the assumptions set out below, the Incentive Performance Rights were ascribed the following value:

Item
Value of the underlying Shares
1
$0.086
Valuation Date
1
1 July 2022
Commencement of performance/
vesting period
1 July 2022
Performance measurement/vesting date
1
3 years
Expiry date 30 June 2025
Term of the Performance Right
Volatility (discount) 100%
Risk-free interest rate 3.01%
Total Value of Incentive Performance Rights $90,000
- Issue to Allan Kelly (Resolution 4) up to $50,000
- Issue to Marion Bush (Resolution 5) up to $40,000

Note: The valuation noted above is not necessarily the market price that the Incentive Performance Rights could be traded at and is not automatically the market price for taxation purposes.

  1. The Performance Rights are subject to vesting conditions set out in Schedule 2.

  2. Performance Rights with non-market based vesting conditions can be exercised at any time following vesting up to expiry date. Performance Rights with market-based vesting conditions can only be exercised following the satisfaction of the Vesting Conditions.

  3. The valuation of Performance Rights assumes that the exercise of a right does not affect the value of the underlying asset.

  4. Given that the Performance Rights are to be issued for no cash consideration, the value of the Performance Rights is reflected in the underlying Share price at the Valuation Date. The Share price used is based on the closing price on 1 July 2022, being $0.086.

  5. No consideration is to be paid upon exercising the Performance Rights.
