How to vote

Shareholders can vote by either:

  • attending the Meeting and voting in person or by attorney or, in the case of corporate Shareholders, by appointing a corporate representative to attend and vote; or

  • appointing a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf using the Proxy Form accompanying this Notice of Meeting and by submitting their proxy appointment and voting instructions in person, by post, electronically via the internet or by facsimile.

Voting in person (or by attorney)

Shareholders, or their attorneys, who plan to attend the Meeting are asked to arrive at the venue 15 minutes prior to the time designated for the Meeting, if possible, so that their holding may be checked against the Company's share register and their attendance recorded. To be effective a certified copy of the Power of Attorney, or the original Power of Attorney, must be received by the Company in the same manner, and by the same time as outlined for proxy forms below.

Voting by a Corporation

A Shareholder that is a corporation may appoint an individual to act as its representative and vote in person at the Meeting. The appointment must comply with the requirements of section 250D of the Corporations Act. The representative should bring to the Meeting evidence of his or her appointment, including any authority under which it is signed.

Voting by proxy

  • A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies. Each proxy will have the right to vote on a poll and also to speak at the Meeting.

  • The appointment of the proxy may specify the proportion or the number of votes that the proxy may exercise. Where more than one proxy is appointed and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the Shareholder's votes each proxy may exercise, the votes will be divided equally among the proxies (i.e. where there are two proxies, each proxy may exercise half of the votes).

  • A proxy need not be a Shareholder.

  • The proxy can be either an individual or a body corporate.

  • If a proxy is not directed how to vote on an item of business, the proxy may generally vote, or abstain from voting, as they think fit. However, where a Restricted Voter is appointed as a proxy, the proxy may only vote on Resolutions 1 and 4 to 10 (inclusive) in accordance with a direction on how the proxy is to vote or, if the proxy is the Chair of the Meeting 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.

  • Should any resolution, other than those specified in this Notice, be proposed at the Meeting, a proxy may vote on that resolution as they think fit.

  • If a proxy is instructed to abstain from voting on an item of business, they are directed not to vote on the Shareholder’s behalf on the poll and the Shares that are the subject of the proxy appointment will not be counted in calculating the required majority.

  • Shareholders who return their Proxy Forms with a direction how to vote, but who do not nominate the identity of their proxy, will be taken to have appointed the Chair of the Meeting as their proxy to vote on their behalf. If a Proxy Form is returned but the nominated proxy does not attend the Meeting, the Chair of the Meeting will act in place of the nominated proxy and vote in accordance with any instructions. Proxy appointments in favour of the Chair of the Meeting, the secretary or any Director that do not contain a direction how to vote will be used, where possible, to support each of the Resolutions proposed in this Notice, provided they are entitled to cast votes as a proxy under the voting exclusion rules which apply to some of the proposed Resolutions. However, in exceptional circumstances, the Chair of the Meeting may change his voting intention, in which case an ASX announcement will be made. These rules are explained in this Notice.

  • To be effective, proxies must be received by 2:00pm (WST) on Sunday, 26 November 2023. Proxies received after this time will be invalid.

  • Proxies may be lodged using any of the following methods

However, if at least 25% of the votes cast are against adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put a resolution to the second annual general meeting ( Spill Resolution ), to approve calling a general meeting ( Spill Meeting ). If more than 50% of Shareholders vote in favour of the Spill Resolution, the Company must then convene a Spill Meeting within 90 days of the second annual general meeting. All of the Directors who

11

==> picture [172 x 72] intentionally omitted <==

were in office when the applicable Directors’ Report was approved, other than the Managing Director, will need to stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting if they wish to continue as Directors.

The remuneration report for the financial year ended 30 June 2022 did not receive a vote of more than 25% against its adoption at the Company’s last annual general meeting held on 23 November 2022. Accordingly, if at least 25% of the votes cast on this Resolution are against adoption of the Remuneration Report it will not result in the Company putting a Spill Resolution to Shareholders.

The Remuneration Report explains the Board policies in relation to the nature and level of remuneration paid to Directors, sets out remuneration details for each Director and any service agreements and sets out the details of any equity based compensation.

The Chair will give Shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report.

2.2 Voting

Note that a voting exclusion applies to this Resolution in the terms set out in the Notice.

5 Resolution 4 – Approval of Employee Awards Plan

Given the changes to the law relating to employee share schemes over the past 12 months, the Directors considered that it was desirable to establish a new incentive plan under which persons who are employees or Directors of, or individuals who provide services to, a Group Company ( Eligible Employees ) may be offered the opportunity to subscribe for Equity Securities in the form of Shares, Options and/or Performance Rights (together, the Incentives ) in the Company in order to increase the range of potential incentives available to them and to strengthen links between the Company and its Eligible Employees and accordingly adopted an updated Employee Awards Plan ( Plan ).

Subject to the approval of this Resolution, the Plan is intended to supersede the Employee Awards Plan adopted by Shareholders at the Company’s last annual general meeting held on 23 November 2022 ( 2022 Plan ). Apart from minor amendments to reflect changes to the law relating to employee share schemes over the past 12 months and other minor technical changes, the terms of the Plan are substantially the same as the 2022 Plan. Refer to the summary of the terms of the Plan set out in Annexure A of this Explanatory Memorandum.

The Plan is designed to provide incentives to the Eligible Employees of the Company and to recognise their contribution to the Company's success. Under the Company's current circumstances, the Directors consider that the incentives to Eligible Employees are a cost effective and efficient incentive for the Company as opposed to alternative forms of incentives such as cash bonuses or increased remuneration. To enable the Company to secure employees, service providers and Directors who can assist the Company in achieving its objectives, it is necessary to provide remuneration and incentives to such personnel. The Plan is designed to achieve this objective, by encouraging continued improvement in performance over time and by encouraging personnel to acquire and retain significant shareholdings in the Company.

Shareholder approval is required if any issue of Incentives pursuant to the Plan is to fall within the exception to the calculation of the 25% limit imposed by Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A on the number of securities which may be issued without Shareholder approval. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b) which provides that Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A does not apply to an issue of securities under an employee incentive scheme that has been approved by the holders of ordinary securities within three years of the date of issue.

Prior Shareholder approval will be required before any Director or related party of the Company can participate in the Plan.

Under the Plan, the Board may offer to Eligible Employees the opportunity to subscribe for such number of Incentives 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 Annexure A of this Explanatory Memorandum. Incentives granted under the Plan will be offered to Eligible Employees in the Plan based on the Board’s view of the contribution of the Eligible Employees to the Company.

The maximum number of Incentives proposed to be issued under the Plan, excluding issues approved by Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.14 or Listing Rule 10.11, following Shareholder approval under Resolution 4 is expected to be 100,000,000 Equity Securities over the 3 year life of the approval. The maximum number stated is not intended to be a prediction of the actual number of securities that may be issued under the Plan – it is simply a ceiling for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13(b). Once this number is reached the Company will need to seek fresh approval from Shareholders if the subsequent issue of Incentives is to fall within Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13.

If the Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to issue Incentives under the Plan up to the maximum set out in this Notice. In addition:

14

==> picture [172 x 72] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • those issues of Incentives 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 and Listing Rule 7.1A; and

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • the Plan will supersede the 2022 Plan and any capacity remaining under the maximum number approved for the 2022 Plan (as approved at the Company’s last annual general meeting held on 23 November 2022) will not be utilised.

If the Resolution is not passed, the Company will be able to proceed to issue Incentives under the Plan, however the issue of those Incentives will not fall within the exception to the calculation of the 25% limit imposed by Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A and therefore effectively decrease the number of Equity Securities which may be issued without Shareholder approval. Alternatively, the Company may continue to issue Incentives under the 2022 Plan to the extent there is any capacity remaining up to the maximum number approved by Shareholders for the 2022 Plan.

In accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b), the following information is provided to Shareholders:

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • a summary of the terms of the Plan is set out in Annexure A of this Explanatory Memorandum;

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • the 2022 Plan was approved by Shareholders on 23 November 2022. A total of 69,888,308 Performance Rights have been issued pursuant to the 2022 Plan, but no securities have yet been issued under the Plan;

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • the maximum Incentives proposed to be issued under the Plan, excluding issues approved by Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.14 or Listing Rule 10.11, following approval of this Resolution is 100,000,000 over the 3 year life of the approval; and

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • a voting exclusion statement has been included in the Notice for the purposes of this Resolution.

The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.

6 Resolutions 5 and 6 – Issue of STI Performance Rights and LTI Performance Rights to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s))

6.1 Background

The Company proposes to grant Performance Rights to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)) under the Plan pursuant Mr Luke Creagh’s annual remuneration arrangements as follows:

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • up to 2,596,225 Performance Rights (each with a nil exercise price and an expiry date of 5 years from their date of issue) on the terms and conditions set out in Annexure B to this Explanatory Memorandum ( STI Performance Rights ) (the subject of Resolution 5); and

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • up to 3,461,634 Performance Rights (each with a nil exercise price and an expiry date of 5 years from their date of issue) on the terms and conditions set out in Annexure C to this Explanatory Memorandum ( LTI Performance Rights ) (the subject of Resolution 6),

(collectively, the Creagh Performance Rights ).

If Resolution 4 is not passed (and the Plan not approved) but Resolutions 5 and 6 are passed, the Creagh Performance Rights will be granted to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)) under the 2022 Plan instead.

15

==> picture [172 x 72] intentionally omitted <==

6.2 Related Party Transactions Generally

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits a public company from giving a financial benefit to a related party of the public company unless either:

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • the giving of the financial benefits falls within one of the nominated exceptions to the provision; or

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • Shareholder approval is obtained prior to the giving of the financial benefit and the benefit is given within 15 months after obtaining such approval.

For the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, Mr Luke Creagh is a related party of the Company.

The Board has formed the view that Shareholder approval is not required for the purposes of section 208 of the Corporations Act on the basis that the benefits are considered by the Board (in the absence of Mr Luke Creagh) to constitute reasonable remuneration and therefore, the exception in section 211 applies to Resolutions 6 and 7. Section 211 provides that Shareholder approval is not required for the purposes of section 208 in circumstances where the benefit constitutes remuneration which would be reasonable given the Company’s and the related party’s circumstances.

6.3 Valuation of Creagh Performance Rights

The Company's advisers have valued the Creagh Performance Rights to be granted to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)) using a Monte Carlo simulation. The value of a security calculated by the Monte Carlo simulation is a function of several variables. The valuation of the Creagh Performance Rights has been prepared using the following assumptions:

Variable STI Performance Rights LTI Performance Rights
Share price $0.091 $0.091
Exercise price Nil Nil
Risk Free Interest Rate 3.88% 3.83%
Volatility 80% 80%
Expiry 5 years 5 years
Fair value $0.042 $0.064

Based on the assumptions, it is considered that the estimated average value of the:

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • STI Performance Rights to be granted to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)) is $0.042 per STI Performance Right, with a total estimated value of $109,041 for all 2,596,225 STI Performance Rights the subject of Resolution 5; and

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • LTI Performance Rights to be granted to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)) is $0.064 per LTI Performance Right, with a total estimated value of $221,544 for all 3,461,634 LTI Performance Rights the subject of Resolution 6.

Any change in the variables applied in the Monte Carlo simulation between the date of the valuation and the date the Creagh Performance Rights are granted would have an impact on their value.

16

==> picture [172 x 72] intentionally omitted <==

6.4 Information Requirements – Listing Rules 10.14 and 10.15

Listing Rule 10.14 provides that the Company must not permit any of the following persons to acquire Equity Securities under an employee incentive scheme:

  • a director of the Company (Listing Rule 10.14.1);

  • an Associate of a director of the Company (Listing Rule 10.14.12); or

  • a person whose relationship with the Company or a person referred to in Listing Rule 10.14.1 or 10.14.2 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the acquisition should be approved by its Shareholders (Listing Rule 10.14.3),

unless it obtains the approval of its Shareholders.

The proposed grant of the Creagh Performance Rights to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)) falls within Listing Rule 10.14.1 and therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.14.

If Resolutions 5 and 6 are passed, the Company will grant the Creagh Performance Rights to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)) as noted above.

If any of Resolution 5 or 6 are not passed, the Company will not grant the relevant Creagh Performance Rights to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)) and the Company may need to consider alternative ways to remunerate Mr Luke Creagh, including by the payment of cash.

The following further information is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.15:

  • the Creagh Performance Rights will be granted to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s));

6.5 Directors’ recommendation

The Directors who have no interest in the outcome of Resolutions 5 and 6 (that is, all Directors excluding Mr Luke Creagh) recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolutions 5 and 6. Mr Luke Creagh declines to make a recommendation about Resolutions 5 and 6 as he may have a material personal interest in the outcome of these Resolutions as they relate to the proposed grant of the Creagh Performance Rights to him or his nominee(s).

The Board is not aware of any other information that would reasonably be required by the Shareholders to allow them to make a decision whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass Resolutions 5 and 6.

6.6 Voting

Shareholders are urged to carefully read the Proxy Form and provide a direction to the proxy on how to vote on the Resolutions.

18

==> picture [172 x 72] intentionally omitted <==

7 Resolution 7 – Approval of Potential Termination Benefits in relation to the Creagh Performance Rights to be granted to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s))

7.1 Background

Subject to the passing of Resolution 5, up to 2,596,225 STI Performance Rights are proposed to be granted to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)).

Subject to the passing of Resolution 6, up to 3,461,634 LTI Performance Rights are proposed to be granted to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)).

A summary of the terms and conditions of the STI Performance Rights and LTI Performance Rights are set out in Annexures B and C, respectively.

Pursuant to the terms of the Performance Rights and the Plan, the Company has a discretion, subject to the Listing Rules and any applicable laws, to determine how vested and unvested Creagh Performance Rights held by Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)) will be treated.

7.2 Termination benefits payable to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s))

The terms of the Creagh Performance Rights and the Plan (as summarised in Annexure A to this Explanatory Memorandum) provide that any unexercised Creagh Performance Rights (vested or unvested) will lapse on Mr Luke Creagh ceasing to be employed by the Company. However, the Board has discretion in these circumstances to determine:

  • (a) that the Creagh Performance Rights do not immediately lapse and remain on foot; or

  • (b) to reduce or waive conditions to the Creagh Performance Rights in whole or in part at any time and in any particular case.

The exercise of this discretion by the Board may constitute a “benefit” for the purposes of section 200B of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.19. The Company is therefore seeking Shareholder approval for the exercise of the Board’s discretion in respect of the Creagh Performance Rights the subject of Resolutions 5 and 6.

If Resolution 5 is not passed, then this Resolution will have no effect in respect of the STI Performance Rights but will still apply to the LTI Performance Rights. If Resolution 6 is not passed, then this Resolution will have no effect in respect of the LTI Incentive Rights but will still apply to the STI Performance Rights.

7.3 Part 2D.2 of the Corporations Act

Part 2D.2 of the Corporations Act restricts the benefits that can be given to persons who hold a “managerial or executive office” (as defined in the Corporations Act), or persons who have in the 3 years before their termination held a managerial or executive office, on leaving their employment or office with the Company or any of its related bodies corporate, unless an exception applies.

Section 200B of the Corporations Act applies to managerial or executive officers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, which includes Mr Luke Creagh.

Under section 200B of the Corporations Act, a company may only give a person a benefit in connection with their ceasing to hold a managerial or executive office in the company or a related body corporate if it is approved by shareholders under section 200E of the Corporations Act or an exemption applies.

Section 200B of the Corporations Act applies to managerial or executive officers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, which will include Mr Luke Creagh.

19

==> picture [172 x 72] intentionally omitted <==

The term "benefit" has a wide operation and would include the exercise of Board discretion for any unexercised Creagh Performance Rights not to lapse upon termination or cessation of employment in accordance with their terms and the Plan.

Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought for the purposes of section 200E of the Corporations Act to allow the Company to deal with the Creagh Performance Rights upon termination or cessation of employment of Mr Luke Creagh in accordance with terms and conditions of the Creagh Performance Rights, where to do so would involve giving a “benefit” to Mr Luke Creagh in connection with him ceasing to hold a managerial or executive office.

The approval is sought in relation to the Creagh Performance Rights, comprising the STI Performance Rights and LTI Performance Rights proposed to be granted to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)) under Resolutions 5 and 6, respectively.

The value of any benefit relating to the Creagh Performance Rights given in connection with Mr Luke Creagh ceasing to hold managerial or executive office cannot presently be ascertained at this time. Nevertheless, for the purposes of Resolutions 5 and 6, the Company’s independent advisers have valued the Creagh Performance Rights and based on the assumptions of that valuation (as at the valuation date), the maximum value would be the amount per Creagh Performance Right set out in section 6.3 above.

The matters, events and circumstances that will, or are likely to, affect the calculation of the actual value of any benefits that may arise are:

  • (a) the number of Creagh Performance Rights held by Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)) prior to termination or cessation of Mr Luke Creagh’s employment;

  • (b) Mr Luke Creagh’s length of service and the status of the vesting conditions attaching to the Creagh Performance Rights at the time his employment or office ceases;

  • (c) whether the vesting conditions are waived or (if not waived) met, and the number of vested but not exercised Creagh Performance Rights held by Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)) prior to termination or cessation of his employment; and

  • (d) the market price of the Company’s Shares on ASX on the date Shares may be issued to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)) upon exercise of the Creagh Performance Rights.

Provided Shareholder approval is given, the value of the termination benefits may be disregarded when applying Section 200F(2)(b) or Section 200G(1)(c) of the Corporations Act (i.e. the approved benefit will not count towards the statutory cap under the legislation).

7.4 Listing Rule 10.19

Listing Rule 10.19 provides that without shareholder approval, an entity must ensure that no officer of the entity or any of its child entities will be, or may be, entitled to termination benefits if the value of those benefits and the termination benefits that are or may become payable to all officers together exceed 5% of the equity interests of the entity as set out in the latest accounts given to ASX under the Listing Rules ( 5% Threshold ). Accordingly, Shareholder approval is being sought on the basis that, if Resolution 7 is passed, officers of the company (including Mr Luke Creagh) may be entitled to termination benefits under the Plan which exceed the 5% Threshold.

Depending upon the value of the termination benefits (see above), and the equity interests of the Company at the time such benefits may crystallise, the giving of the benefits may exceed the 5% Threshold. In the event of such termination benefits crystallising, the Company will comply with Listing Rule 10.19.

20

==> picture [172 x 72] intentionally omitted <==

7.5 Consequences of passing Resolution 7

If Resolution 7 is passed, the Company will be able to give termination benefits upon the exercise of the above discretion with respect to the Creagh Performance Rights which may exceed the 5% Threshold to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)) in connection with Mr Luke Creagh ceasing to hold managerial or executive office in accordance with the terms of the Creagh Performance Rights and rules of the Plan.

If Resolution 7 is not passed, the Company will not be able to give termination benefits to Mr Luke Creagh (or his nominee(s)) unless:

  • (a) the Company obtains future Shareholder approval under section 200E of the Corporations Act for the giving of the particular termination benefit or another exemption to the restriction in section 200B of the Corporations Act applies; or

  • (b) the Company obtains future Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.19 or those termination benefits along with termination benefits payable to all officers will not exceed the 5% Threshold.

The Chairman intends to vote all available proxies in favour of Resolution 7.

  • 8 Resolutions 8 to 10 (inclusive) – Issue of Fee Shares to Mr Peter Mansell, Mr Alan Rule and Ms Jo-Anne Dudley (Directors) (or their nominee(s))

8.1 Background

The Company proposes to grant Shares to the Company’s current non-executive Directors, being Mr Peter Mansell, Mr Alan Rule and Ms Jo-Anne Dudley ( Relevant Directors ), or their nominees, under the Plan, as part of their remuneration arrangements as described below.

In June 2022, the Board resolved to reduce the fees payable to non-executive Directors from $110,000 to $80,000 (exclusive of superannuation) (and from $165,000 to $120,000 (exclusive of superannuation) for the Chair), because of cost management initiatives given the Company’s Davyhurst reset plan and the cost reduction focus of the Company at the time.

The Board wishes to ensure that the remuneration offered to Relevant Directors is competitive with market practice. Accordingly, in July 2023 the Board requested that a third-party remuneration consultation be engaged to undertake a review of the remuneration arrangements for the Company’s non-executive Directors to ensure appropriate remuneration for the 2024 financial year. Having considered the third-party consultant’s review and benchmarking information, the Board has resolved to return the fees payable to the previous levels of $110,000 (and $165,000 for the Chair) (exclusive of superannuation) which will be back paid to 1 July 2023.

Subject to shareholder approval under Resolutions 8 to 10 (inclusive), it is proposed that a minimum part of the difference between the previous fees and the increased fees ( NED Fee Increase ) for the next 3 years will be paid by way of equity, in the form of Shares ( Fee Shares ), in lieu of cash fees. A minimum of 50% of the NED Fee Increase per annum is proposed to be paid in Fee Shares ( Minimum Equity Value ) and each of the Relevant Directors will have the ability to elect to be paid up to 100% of the NED Fee Increase per annum in Fee Shares ( Maximum Equity Value ), as illustrated in the following table.

Non-executive

$110,000 $80,000 $15,000 $30,000

The Fee Shares will be issued to each Director under the Plan on a quarterly basis, with the deemed issue price of the Fee Shares to be equal to the VWAP of Shares calculated over the 10 Trading Days prior to the end of the quarter ( Deemed Issue Price ). The formula for the number of Fee Shares to be issued to each of the Relevant Directors each quarter will be the amount of the NED Fee Increase for that quarter the Relevant Director has elected to receive in Fee Shares ( Elected Equity Value ) divided by the Deemed Issue Price.

The issue of any Fee Shares, and disposal of any Fee Shares by the Relevant Directors, will be subject to the terms of the Plan and the Company’s securities trading policy.

Accordingly, Resolutions 8 to 10 (inclusive) seek Shareholder approval to issue Fee Shares to the Relevant Directors (or their nominee(s)) under the Plan, pursuant to the above arrangements, as follows:

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • up to such number of Fee Shares as is equal to the applicable Maximum Equity Value per annum (for the next 3 years) to Mr Peter Mansell (or his nominee(s)) (the subject of Resolution 8);

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • up to such number of Fee Shares as is equal to the applicable Maximum Equity Value per annum (for the next 3 years) to Mr Alan Rule (or his nominee(s)) (the subject of Resolution 9); and

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • up to such number of Fee Shares as is equal to the Maximum Equity Value per annum (for the next 3 years) to Ms Jo-Anne Dudley (or her nominee(s)) (the subject of Resolution 10).

Under the Company’s current circumstances, the Board (in the absence of each Relevant Director in respect of their own remuneration) considers that the issue of the Fees Shares to be a cost-effective way for the Company to remunerate its non-executive Directors, as opposed to paying the NED Fee Increase in cash and will assist the Company to retain suitably qualified non-executive Directors, while maintaining the Company’s cash reserves. The Company does not consider that there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company or benefits foregone by the Company in issuing the Fee Shares upon the terms proposed above.

If Resolution 4 is not passed (and the Plan not approved) but if Resolutions 8, 9 and 10 are passed, the Fee Shares will be granted to the Relevant Directors (or their nominee(s)) under the 2022 Plan instead.

8.2 Related Party Transactions Generally

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits a public company from giving a financial benefit to a related party of the public company unless either:

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • the giving of the financial benefits falls within one of the nominated exceptions to the provision; or

22

==> picture [172 x 72] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • Shareholder approval is obtained prior to the giving of the financial benefit and the benefit is given within 15 months after obtaining such approval.

For the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, each of the Relevant Directors is a related party of the Company.

For Resolution 8, the Directors (other than the Chair Mr Peter Mansell) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the proposed issue of Fee Shares to Mr Peter Mansell (or his nominee(s)) because the agreement to issue those Fee Shares, reached as part of the remuneration for Mr Peter Mansell (with the Fee Shares to be issued in lieu of cash fees payable in respect of the NED Fee Increase) is considered reasonable remuneration in the circumstances for the purposes of section 211 of the Corporations Act, given his experience and the third party advice provided.

For Resolution 9, the Directors (other than the Non-executive Directors Mr Alan Rule and Ms Jo-Anne Dudley) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the proposed issue of Fee Shares to Mr Alan Rule (or his nominee(s)) because the agreement to issue those Fee Shares, reached as part of the proposed remuneration for Mr Alan Rule (with the Fee Shares to be issued in lieu of cash fees payable in respect of the NED Fee Increase) is considered reasonable remuneration in the circumstances for the purposes of section 211 of the Corporations Act, given his experience and the third party advice provided.

For Resolution 10, the Directors (other than the Non-executive Directors Ms Jo-Anne Dudley and Mr Alan Rule) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the issue of the Fee Shares to be issued to Ms Jo-Anne Dudley (or her nominee(s)) because the agreement to issue those Fee Shares, reached as part of the proposed remuneration for Ms Jo-Anne Dudley (with the Fee Shares to be issued in lieu of cash fees payable in respect of the NED Fee Increase) is considered reasonable remuneration in the circumstances for the purposes of section 211 of the Corporations Act, given her experience and the third party advice provided.

8.3 Total remuneration package

The Relevant Director’s fees per annum (including superannuation) and the total financial benefit to be received by them in this current period, being the financial year ending 30 June 2024 ( FY2024 ), as a result of the issue of the Fee Shares the subject of the Resolutions, are as follows:

Relevant Director Minimum Cash fees
p.a.
(A$)*
Maximum value of
Fee Shares p.a. (A$)
that may be issued*
Maximum Total
Financial Benefit (A$)
p.a.
Mr Peter Mansell
(Chair)
$120,000 $45,000 $165,000
Mr Alan Rule (non-
executive Director)
$80,000 $30,000 $110,000
Ms Jo-Anne Dudley
(non-executive
Director)
$80,000 $30,000 $110,000

*The Relevant Directors may each receive less in Fee Shares than the amounts stated above, depending on their respective elections each quarter for FY2024 and the Deemed Issue Price, and the cash fees payable will be adjusted accordingly, however the maximum total financial benefit to be received by each Relevant Director will remain the same.

23

==> picture [172 x 72] intentionally omitted <==

8.4 Directors’ recommendation

Resolutions 8, 9 and 10 relate to the proposed issue of Fee Shares to Mr Peter Mansell, Mr Alan Rule and Ms Jo-Anne Dudley (or their nominee(s)), respectively, and Mr Peter Mansell, Mr Alan Rule and Ms Jo-Anne Dudley may each have an interest in the outcome of Resolutions 8, 9 and 10, respectively, and Mr Peter Mansell, Mr Alan Rule and Ms Jo-Anne Dudley therefore each believe it inappropriate to make a recommendation in respect of the proposed issues of Fee Shares as they relate to them.

Other than as outlined above, the Directors recommend that Shareholders approve the grant of the issue of the Fee Shares to each of Mr Peter Mansell, Mr Alan Rule and Ms Jo-Anne Dudley (or their nominee(s)).

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

8.5 Information Requirements – Listing Rules 10.14 and 10.15

Listing Rule 10.14 provides that the Company must not permit any of the following persons to acquire Equity Securities under an employee incentive scheme:

  • a director of the Company (Listing Rule 10.14.1);

  • an Associate of a director of the Company (Listing Rule 10.14.2); or

  • a person whose relationship with the Company or a person referred to in Listing Rule 10.14.1 or 10.14.2 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the acquisition should be approved by its Shareholders (Listing Rule 10.14.3),

unless it obtains the approval of its Shareholders.

The proposed issue of Fee Shares to Mr Peter Mansell, Mr Alan Rule and Ms Jo-Anne Dudley (or their nominee(s)) pursuant to Resolutions 8, 9 and 10, respectively, falls within Listing Rule 10.14.1 and therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.14.

If Resolutions 8, 9 and 10 are passed, the Company will be able to issue up to such number of Fee Shares as is equal to the applicable Maximum Equity Value per annum (for the next 3 years) to each of Mr Peter Mansell, Mr Alan Rule and Ms Jo-Anne Dudley (or their nominee(s)), respectively, as noted above.

If this Resolutions 8, 9 and 10 are not passed, the Company will not be able to issue up to such number of Fee Shares as is equal to the applicable Maximum Equity Value per annum (for the next 3 years) to each of Mr Peter Mansell, Mr Alan Rule and Ms Jo-Anne Dudley (or their nominee(s)), respectively, and the Company will be required to pay the NED Fee Increase for each Relevant Director over the next 3 years by way of cash, reducing the Company’s cash reserves.

The following further information is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.15:

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • the Fee Shares will be granted Mr Peter Mansell, Mr Alan Rule and Ms Jo-Anne Dudley (or their nominee(s)), as noted above;

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • Mr Peter Mansell, Mr Alan Rule and Ms Jo-Anne Dudley are all Directors and therefore fall within Listing Rule 10.14.1;

==> picture [12 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • the formula for calculating the number of Fee Shares to be issued to each Relevant Director (or their nominee(s)) each quarter will be calculated by dividing the Elected Equity Value (which for the avoidance of doubt, will not be more than the Maximum Equity Value for that quarter)

24

==> picture [172 x 72] intentionally omitted <==

divided by the Deemed Issue Price (being the VWAP over the 10 Trading Days prior to the end of the quarter).

8.6 Voting

Shareholders are urged to carefully read the Proxy Form and provide a direction to the proxy on how to vote on Resolutions 8, 9 and 10.

9 Resolution 11 – Approval of Additional 10% Placement Capacity

9.1 Background

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% ( Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate ).

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 given it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of approximately $187 million as at the date of this Notice.

This Resolution 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.

If this Resolution 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 this Resolution 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.

9.2 The number of Equity Securities which may be issued pursuant to the Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate

Based on the number of Shares on issue at the date of this Notice, the Company will have 1,702,952,265 Shares on issue and therefore, subject to Shareholder approval being obtained under this Resolution, 170,295,226 Equity Securities will be permitted to be issued in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A. Shareholders should note that the calculation of the number of Equity Securities permitted to be issued under the Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate is a moving calculation and will be based the formula set out in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 at the time of issue of the Equity Securities. That formula is:

(A x D) – E

  • A is the number of Shares on issue 12 months immediately preceding the date of issue or agreement ( Relevant Period ):

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the Relevant Period under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 other than exception 9, 16 or 17;

26

==> picture [172 x 72] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the Relevant Period on the conversion of convertible securities within Listing Rule 7.2 exception 9 where:

  • (i) the convertible securities were issued or agreed to be issued before the commencement of the relevant period; or

  • (ii) the issue of, or 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;

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • plus the number of Shares issued in the Relevant Period under an agreement to issue securities within Listing Rule 7.2 exception 16 where:

  • (i) the agreement was entered into before the commencement of the Relevant Period; or

  • (ii) the agreement or issue was approved, or taken under these rules to have been approved, under Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.4;

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the Relevant Period with approval of holders of Shares under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4;

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • plus the number of partly paid Shares that become fully paid in the Relevant Period;

==> picture [10 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • less the number of fully paid Shares cancelled in the Relevant Period.

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

D is 10%; and

  • 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 to issue has not been subsequently approved by Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.4.

9.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • If the Resolution is passed, the Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate will be valid during the period from the date of the Meeting and will expire on the earlier 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; and

  • (iii) the time and date on which the Company receives approval by Shareholders for 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),

( Approval Period ).

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • The Equity Securities to be issued will be in an existing class of quoted securities and will be issued for cash consideration at an issue price per Equity Security of not less than 75% of the volume weighted average price for the Company's Equity Securities over the 15 Trading Days on which trades in the 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 Company and the recipient of the Equity Securities; or

27

==> picture [172 x 72] intentionally omitted <==

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

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • the Shares will be issued to fund resource definition and reserve replacement, regional exploration, operational costs and working capital for progressing the Company’s Davyhurst Gold Project.

  • If this Resolution is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues Equity Securities under the Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate, the existing Shareholders' economic and voting interests in the Company will be diluted. There is also a risk that:

  • (i) the market price for the Company's Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than on the date the Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate was approved; and

  • (ii) the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for the Company's Equity Securities on the issue date or the Equity Securities.

Note : This table assumes:

==> picture [172 x 72] intentionally omitted <==

the above table, it is assumed that those quoted Options are exercised into Shares for the purposes of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.

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

  • 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, with approval under Listing Rule 7.1 or ratified under Listing Rule 7.4.

The table shows only the effect of issues of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • The identity of the persons to whom Shares will be issued is not yet known and will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to market conditions at the time of the proposed issue of Equity Securities and the Company’s allocation policy, which involves consideration of matters including, but not limited to:

  • (i) the ability of the Company to raise funds at the time of the proposed issue of Equity Securities and whether the raising of any funds under such placement could be carried out by means of an entitlement offer, or a placement and an entitlements offer;

  • (ii) the dilutionary effect of the proposed issue of the Equity Securities on existing Shareholders at the time of proposed issued of Equity Securities;

  • (iii) the financial situation and solvency of the Company; and

  • (iv) advice from its professional advisers, including corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).

==> picture [10 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • The persons to whom Shares will be issued under the Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate have not been determined as at the date of this Notice, but will not include related parties (or their Associates) of the Company.

  • No voting exclusion statement is included for this Resolution because the Company is not proposing any issue of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A as at the date of this Notice.

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • The Company has not previously issued or agreed to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A2 in the 12 months preceding the date of the Meeting.

  • (g) Vesting: Subject to paragraphs (j) and (k) below, an Incentive will vest when the Participant receives a vesting notice from the Company confirming that the vesting conditions attaching to the Incentives are met or waived.

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

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

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

     - (iii) with respect of unvested Incentives, the date the Participant ceases employment in the relevant circumstances summarised at paragraph (j) below.

although the Board may (subject to compliance with the Corporations Act and Listing Rules) determine to treat any unvested Incentives in any other way other than in the manner set out above if the Board determines that the relevant circumstances warrant such treatment. If the Board makes such a determination for alternative treatment, then it must give the relevant Participant notice within 14 days of that determination.

33

  • (k) Change of control: If a Change of Control Event (see below) occurs, the Board may in its sole and absolute discretion (and subject to the Listing Rules) by notice to the Participant determine how any unvested Incentives will be treated, including but not limited to:

  • (ii) reducing or waiving the applicable vesting conditions attaching to the unvested Incentives,

where a “ Change of Control Event ” means:

     - (iii) a takeover bid (as defined in the Corporations Act) is made for all Shares and which is, or is declared, unconditional and the bidder under the bid acquires a voting power in the Company of at least 50.1%;

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

     - (v) any other merger, consolidation or amalgamation involving the Company occurring which results in the holders of Shares immediately prior to the merger, consolidation or amalgamation being entitled to 50% or less of the voting shares in the body corporate resulting from the merger, consolidation or amalgamation;

     - (vi) any Group Company entering into agreements to sell in aggregate a majority in value of the businesses or assets of the Group to a person, or a number of persons, none of which are Group Companies; or

     - (vii) the Board determining in its reasonable opinion that control of the Company has or is likely to change or pass to one or more persons.
  • (l) 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 ASX if applicable. Unless and until the Options or Performance Rights have been exercised and the relevant Shares issued to that Participant as a result of that exercise, a Participant has no right or interest in those Shares.

  • (m) 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.

  • (n) 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.

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

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

    • (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

34

  • (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 Incentive 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 Incentives 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 Incentives, 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 Incentives.

  • (p) 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.
