The Board (excluding Mr Hemming) supports the election of Mr Hemming and recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4.

8. Resolution 5 – Employee Incentive Plan

8.1 General

Resolution 5 seeks Shareholder approval, pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13, to adopt the Employee Incentive Plan (the Plan ) and to enable Performance Rights, Options, and Shares upon exercise or conversion of those Performance Rights and Options to be issued under the Plan to eligible, employees and contractors ( Incentive Securities ) to be exempted from Listing Rule 7.1 for a period of 3 years from the date on which Resolution 5 is passed.

A summary of the Plan, to be adopted pursuant to Resolution 5, is set out in Schedule 2.

The Plan is intended to assist the Company to attract and retain key staff, whether Directors, employees or contractors. The Board believes that grants made to eligible participants under the Plan will provide a powerful tool to underpin the Company's employment and engagement strategy, and that the Plan will:

  • (a) enable the Company to incentivise and retain existing key management personnel and other eligible employees and contractors needed to achieve the Company's business objectives;

  • (b) enable the Company to recruit, incentivise and retain additional key management personnel, and other eligible employees and contractors, needed to achieve the Company's business objectives;

  • (c) link the reward of key staff with the achievement of strategic goals and the long-term performance of the Company;

  • (d) align the financial interest of participants of the Plan with those of Shareholders; and

  • (e) provide incentives to participants under the Plan to focus on superior performance that creates Shareholder value.

If Resolution 5 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Incentive Securities to eligible Directors, employees and contractors under the Plan without using up any of the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 5 is not passed, the Company may still issue Incentive Securities to eligible Directors, employees and contractors under the Plan but any issue will reduce, to that extent, the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 for 12 months following the issue.

Resolution 5 is an ordinary resolution.

10.4 Board Recommendation

The Board (other than Mr Pearce) recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.

11. Resolution 8 – Ratify Issue of Shares issued Pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1

11.1 Background

On 6 October 2021, the Company announced that it had entered into an earn-in and joint venture agreement (the Agreement ) with Greenfields Exploration Limited ( GEX ) to acquire an interest of up to 80% in the Arctic Rift Copper project ( ARC or Project ) in Greenland and form a joint venture with GEX in relation to ARC.

ARC is a significant, large-scale project (5,774km[2] license area) with historical exploration results indicative of an extensive mineral system with potential to host world-class copper deposits.

The ARC mineral system is known to be prospective for basalt, fault, and sedimentary rockhosted copper mineralisation however, it remains virtually unexplored, giving the Company a first mover advantage in a major new metallogenic province.

The Company will earn an 80% interest in the Project by:

  • (a) spending A$3,500,000 on the Project within three years to earn a 51% interest;

  • (b) spending a further A$3,500,000 on the Project within four years to earn a further 19% interest (taking the total interest to 70%); and

  • (c) spending a further A$3,000,000 on the Project within five years to earn a further 10% interest (taking the total interest to 80%).

Thereafter, the Company and GEX must contribute on a pro rata basis or be diluted.

If a party dilutes down below 10%, then its interest in ARC automatically converts into a 1.75% Net Smelter Royalty (at this stage GEX can also elect to convert straight to the royalty rather than co-contributing or diluting down).

  • 15 -

Further consideration for the Project in the form of securities in the Company were issued to GEX on 8 October 2021 as follows:

  • (a) 3,000,000 Prairie shares on completion (subject to 12 months voluntarily escrow) ( ARC Shares ); and

  • (b) the following Performance Rights:

  • (i) 5,000,000 Class A Performance Rights which vest and convert into Shares (which will be subject to 6 months voluntary escrow from the date of issue of the Shares upon conversion of the Performance Rights) upon the announcement of an independently assessed JORC Code inferred resource of at least 250,000 tonnes of copper equivalent at a minimum resource grade of 1% Cu Equivalent (or equivalent, with a cut-off grade of 0.5% Cu equivalent) at ARC and expire 8 October 2026; and

  • (ii) 6,000,000 Class B Performance Rights which vest and convert into Prairie Shares (which will be subject to 6 months voluntary escrow from the date of issue of the Shares upon conversion of the Performance Rights) upon the announcement of an independently assessed JORC Code inferred resource of at least 500,000 tonnes of copper equivalent at a minimum resource grade of 1% Cu Equivalent (or equivalent, with a cut-off grade of 0.5% Cu equivalent) at ARC and expire 8 October 2026,

12.4 Board recommendation

The Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 9.

13. Resolution 10 – Approval of Additional 10% Placement Capacity

13.1 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.

Listing Rule 7.1A enables eligible entities to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued share capital through placements over a 12-month period after the annual general meeting ( 10% Placement Capacity ). The 10% Placement Capacity is in addition to the Company's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

An eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. The Company is an eligible entity.

The Company is seeking Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to have the ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity. The number of Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.

If Resolution 10 is passed, the effect will be that the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity in addition to the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 10 is not passed, the effect will be that the Company will not be able to issue any Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity and will have to rely upon its 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of Equity Securities.

Resolution 10 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 Chairperson intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of Resolution 10.

13.2 Listing Rule 7.1A

(a) Shareholder approval

The ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity 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 Capacity 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 on issue one quoted class of Equity Securities, being Shares.

(c) Formula for calculating 10% Placement Capacity

Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that eligible entities that have obtained Shareholder approval at an annual general meeting may issue or agree to issue, during the 12 month period after the date of the annual general meeting, a number of Equity

  • 18 -

Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:

(A x D)E

  • A is the number of Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

  • (ii) plus the number of Shares issued in the 12 months on the conversion of convertible securities within rule 7.2 (exception 9) where:

    • (A) the convertible securities were issued or agreed to be issued before the commencement of the 12 months; or

    • (B) the issue of, or agreement to issue, the convertible securities was approved, or taken under the Listing Rules to have been approved, under Listing Rule 7.1 or Listing Rule 7.4,

  • (iii) plus the number of Shares issued in the 12 months under an agreement to issue securities within Listing Rule 7.2 (exception 16) where:

    • (A) the agreement was entered into before the commencement of the relevant period; or

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

  • (iv) plus the number of any other fully paid ordinary securities issued in the 12 months with approval under Listing Rule 7.1 or Listing Rule 7.4 (noting that this may include fully paid ordinary securities issued in the 12 months under an agreement to issue securities within Listing Rule 7.2 (exception 17) where the issue is subsequently approved under Listing Rule 7.1),

  • (v) plus the number of partly paid ordinary securities that became fully paid in the 12 months;

  • (vi) less the number of fully paid ordinary securities cancelled in the 12 months.

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 12 months where the issue or agreement to issue has not been subsequently approved by Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.4.

(d) Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A

The ability of an entity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A is in addition to the entity's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

At the date of the Notice, the Company has on issue 231,355,089 Shares and currently has the capacity to issue:

  • (i) 34,703,263 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1; and

  • 19 -

in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to Section 13.2(c).

(e) Minimum Issue Price

The issue price of Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A must be not less than 75% of the VWAP of Equity Securities in the same class calculated over the 15 Trading Days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • (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.

  • (f) 10% Placement Period

Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A is valid from the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained and expires on the first to occur of the following:

  • (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained;

  • (iii) the time and date of Shareholder approval 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),

( the 10% Placement Period ).

13.3 Effect of Resolution

The effect of Resolution 10 will be to allow the Directors to issue the Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the 10% Placement Period without using the Company's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • (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 of the Meeting; 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,

the date of the Notice.

  • (e) The table also shows:

  • (i) 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 table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

  • (i) The Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Capacity.

  • (ii) No Performance Rights or Options are exercised or converted into Shares before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities.

  • (iii) 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%.

  • (iv) 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 Capacity, based on that Shareholder's holding at the date of the Meeting.

  • (v) 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.

  • (vi) The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity consists only of Shares.

  • (vii) The issue price is $0.295, being the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 14 October 2021. The Company will only issue the Equity Securities during the 10% Placement Period.

  • (f) The Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for cash consideration for continued exploration and development of ARC and general working capital.

  • (g) The Company will only issue the Listing Rule 7.1A Shares during the 10% Placement Period. The approval under Resolution 10 will cease to be valid in the event that Shareholders approve a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature of scale of activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking).

  • (h) The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A.4 and 3.10.3 upon issue of any Equity Securities.

  • (i) The Company's allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity. The

  • 21 -

identity of the subscribers of Equity Securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factors including but not limited to the following:

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

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

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

  • (j) The subscribers under the 10% Placement Capacity have not been determined as at the date of the Notice but may include existing substantial Shareholders and/or new Shareholders who are not a related party or an associate of a related party of the Company and are likely to be sophisticated and professional investors.

  • (k) In the 12 months preceding the date of the Meeting, the Company has not issued any Equity Securities pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A.2.

  • (l) A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice for Resolution 10. However as at the date of this Notice, the Company has not invited any existing Shareholder to participate in an issue of Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. Therefore, no existing Shareholders will be excluded from voting on this Resolution.

The material terms of the Agreement are as follows:

Earn-In

  • 1.1 The Company, via MIPL, will earn its interest in ARC by:

  • 1.1.1 spending $3,500,000 on ARC within three years to earn a 51% interest ( First Earnin Milestone );

  • 1.2.1 the Company, via MIPL, and GEX, must contribute on a pro rata basis to ARC or be diluted; and

  • 1.2.2 if the Company, via MIPL, or GEX, dilutes down below 10%, then that party's interest in ARC automatically converts into a 1.75% net smelter royalty on future production at ARC (at this stage GEX can also elect to convert straight to the royalty rather than co-contributing or diluting down).

GEX Services

  • 1.3 To secure the services of the GEX exploration team, the Company will pay GEX a monthly services fee of A$54,167 per month for a period to 31 December 2023 or such longer time period as agreed between GEX and the Company ( GEX Services Fee ).

  • 1.5.1 3 million Shares on completion (subject to 12 months voluntarily escrow from date of issue);

Joint Venture and other terms

  • 1.6 GEX will incorporate as soon as possible, and in any event within 3 months of the date of the Agreement, a Greenland company for the purposes of being the Joint Venture Company between GEX and MIPL and holding the Greenland permits relating ARC. Until the incorporation of the Joint Venture Company and the transfer of the ARM permits to the Joint Venture Company, GEX and MIPL will operate as an unincorporated joint venture if MIPL has satisfied one of the earn-in milestones.
