Further instructions on direct voting are available on the front of the voting form.

All Resolutions will be by poll

Each Resolution considered at the meeting will be conducted by a poll, rather than on a show of hands.

Joint holders

When joint holders are named in the register of members, only one joint holder may vote. If more than one of the joint holders is present at the meeting, only the person whose name appears first in the register of members will be entitled to vote. If more than one holder votes at the meeting, only the vote of the first named of the joint holders in the register of members will be counted.

Proxies

All Shareholders who are entitled to participate in and vote at the AGM have the right to appoint a proxy to participate in the AGM and vote in their place. A proxy need not be a Shareholder and can be an individual or a body corporate.

You can direct your proxy how to vote (ie. to vote 'for' or 'against', or to 'abstain' from voting on, each Resolution) by following the instructions either online or on the hard copy voting form. A proxy may decide whether to vote on an item of business, except where the proxy is required by law or the constitution to vote, or abstain from voting, in his or her capacity as proxy. If a proxy is directed how to vote on an item of business, the proxy may only vote on the item as directed. If a proxy is not directed how to vote on an item of business, the proxy may vote as he or she thinks fit.

For your proxy appointment to be effective, it must be received by Boardroom Pty Limited not less than 48 hours before the time for holding the AGM (that is by 11.00am (AEDT) on Sunday, 21st November 2021).

If you appoint the Chairman as your proxy but do not direct the Chairman on how to vote, then by completing and submitting your voting instructions you are expressly authorising the Chairman to vote in favour of each item of business, even when an item of business is directly or indirectly connected to the remuneration of a member of the key management personnel of QMines Limited. The Chair intends to vote all available (including undirected) proxies in favour of all Resolutions, subject to the applicable voting exclusions.

If you are entitled to cast two or more votes, you may appoint two proxies and you may specify the proportion or number of votes that each proxy is appointed to exercise. If your appointment does not specify the proportion or number of your voting rights, each proxy may exercise half your votes (disregarding fractions).

The appointment of one or more duly appointed proxies will not preclude a Shareholder from attending the meeting and voting personally. If the Shareholder votes on a Resolution, the proxy must not vote as the Shareholder's proxy on that Resolution.

QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS FROM SHAREHOLDERS

QMines welcomes questions from Shareholders and proxyholders in the lead up to and during the AGM. In the interests of all participants, please confine your questions to matters being considered at the AGM that are relevant to Shareholders as a whole. It may not be possible to respond to all questions during the AGM and a number of similar questions may be grouped together and answered by the Chairman or management.

Before the meeting

Shareholders may submit written questions to the Company or the auditor in advance of the AGM by email to the Company Secretary at [email protected] or by post to the Company's share registry (see address details above).

During the meeting

All Shareholders will have a reasonable opportunity to ask questions during the AGM, including the opportunity to ask questions of the Company's auditor, RSM Australia Partners.

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Annual General Meeting (AGM) Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of Shareholders in connection with the business to be conducted at the AGM.

The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the General Meeting Resolutions.

1. ANNUAL REPORT

1.1 General

The first agenda item is to receive the Annual Report of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2021.

1.2 Corporations Act

Section 317 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) requires the directors to lay before the Annual General Meeting the Financial Report, the Directors' Report (including the Remuneration Report) and the Auditor's Report for the last financial year that ended 30 June 2021.

The Annual Report is available on the Company's website and a printed copy has been sent to those shareholders who requested it.

In accordance with sections 250S and 250SA of the Corporations Act, Shareholders present at the Annual General Meeting will be provided with a reasonable opportunity to:

  • (a) ask questions or make comment to the Directors present on the management of the Company and Remuneration Report; and
  • (b) ask questions or make comment to the Auditor about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the Auditor's Report.

No formal resolution to adopt the Annual Report will be put to the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting.

Shareholders who are unable to attend the Annual General Meeting are able to submit written questions to the Chairman or the auditor about:

  • (a) The preparation and the content of the 2021 Auditor's Report;
  • (b) The conduct of the 2021 audit;
  • (c) Accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of the 2021 financial statements; and
  • (d) The independence of the Auditor in relation to the conduct of the 2021 audit.

The questions will need to be submitted no later than five (5) business days before the Annual General Meeting to the Company Secretary at the Company's Registered Office or via email to [email protected].

2.1 General

In accordance with Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act, at a listed company's Annual General Meeting, a resolution that the Company's Remuneration Report be adopted must be put to the vote. Section 250R(3) of the Corporations Act provides that the vote on the resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company.

In accordance with Section 300A, the Remuneration Report sets out the Company's remuneration arrangements for Key Management Personnel. The Remuneration Report is part of the Directors' Report contained in the Annual Financial Report for the financial year ending 30 June 2021. A reasonable opportunity will be provided for discussion of the Remuneration Report at the Annual General Meeting.

2.2 Voting Consequences

Under the Corporations Act, companies are required to put to shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of another meeting of shareholders to consider the appointment of directors of the company ("Spill Resolution") if, at two consecutive Annual General Meetings, at least 25% of the votes cast on the Remuneration Report are voted against the 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 are cast in favour of a Spill Resolution, the Company must convene a shareholder meeting ("Spill Meeting") within 90 days of the second Annual General Meeting. At that meeting, all directors who were in office at the time of the Directors' Report, other than the managing director, will cease to hold office immediately before the Spill Meeting. Those persons who are elected or re-elected at the Spill Meeting will be the directors of the company. Note those directors who ceased to hold office immediately prior to the Spill Meeting may stand for re-election.

As this is the Company's first Annual General Meeting, shareholders have not previously voted on the Company's remuneration report and a Spill Resolution is not required at this AGM.

Shareholders of the Company will be provided with the opportunity to ask questions about or make comments on the Remuneration Report.

3. RESOLUTION 2 & 3 - ELECTION OF DIRECTOR

3.1 General

In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 14.5, a public listed company must hold an election of directors at each annual general meeting. Further, in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 14.4 and the Company's Constitution, a director must not hold office (without re-election) past the third annual general meeting following the director's appointment and a director appointed to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the board must not hold office (without re-election) past the next annual general meeting.

If no Director is required to submit for re-election but the ASX Listing Rules require an election of Directors to be held, the Director to retire will be the Director who has been longest in office since their last election and, as between persons who became Directors on the same day, the one to retire will (unless they otherwise agree among themselves) be determined by lot. A retiring Director remains in office until the end of the meeting at which the Director retires or vacates office, and will be eligible for re-election at the meeting.

Ms. Elissa Hansen retires by rotation at this Annual General Meeting and Mr. Peter Caristo, who was appointed to fill a casual vacancy on 14 September 2021, retires in accordance with clause 14.4 of the Company's Constitution. Both, being eligible, offers themselves for re-election.

Elissa was appointed as a director of the Company on 28 August 2020. She is also the Company Secretary. Elissa has over 20 years' experience in advising management and boards on governance, investor relations, compliance and other corporate issues. She holds a Bachelor of Commerce and a Graduate Diploma in Applied Corporate Governance and is a Fellow of the Governance Institute of Australia and a Graduate Member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors. Elissa acts as a Director and/or Company Secretary to a number of listed and unlisted companies.

Mr. Peter Caristo is an exploration geologist with over 24 years of industry experience in Australia, Indonesia, Côte d'Ivoire and Papua New Guinea. He held senior exploration roles with Newcrest Mining, was Project Generation Manager Asia-Pacific for OceanaGold, and worked as a consultant through his own company (All-Terrane Exploration Management) and Mining Associates.

Peter has broad experience covering both greenfields and brownfields projects across a wide range of geological terranes and mineral deposit styles and holds a BSc (Geology) with Honsors from the University of New South Wales and an MBA from the University of Queensland. Peter is a Registered Professional Geologist (RPGeo) and Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists (MAIG), a Fellow of the Society of Economic Geologists, and a Member of the Geological Society of Australia. Peter is the current Chair of the Queensland Branch of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists.

4. RESOLUTION 4 – APPOINTMENT OF AUDITOR

4.1 Background

RSM Australia Partners was appointed by the Board to act as auditor of the Company and, in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act, holds office as auditor until QMines' first AGM at which the appointment needs to be confirmed by Shareholders. The Board is therefore seeking Shareholder approval for the re-appointment of RSM Australia Partners as auditor of the Company with effect from the close of the AGM.

RSM Australia Partners was appointed by the Board on the basis of its expertise, independence and proposed fees. RSM Australia Partners is a registered company auditor, has had extensive previous experience in conducting audits of public listed companies, and is a well-known and respected firm.

In accordance with the Corporations Act, which requires a Shareholder to nominate the auditor, a written notice nominating RSM Australia Partners as the Company's auditor has been given to the Company by Mr. Andrew Sparke. Mr. Sparke is Chairman of the Board and a significant Shareholder of the Company. A copy of the notice of nomination is included with this Notice of Meeting at Annexure A.

RSM Australia Partners has given its written consent to act as the Company's auditor pursuant to section 328A(1) of the Corporations Act. As at the date of this Notice of Meeting, RSM Australia Partners has not withdrawn that consent.

5. RESOLUTIONS 5 & 6 - RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE (LR 7.1)

5.1 Background

On 30 June 2021, QMines issued 150,000 fully paid ordinary shares to Mr. Simon Russell Francis and 26,667 fully paid ordinary to StocksOnline Pty Ltd (Resolution 5) and on 3 August 2021, QMines issued 666,666 fully paid ordinary shares to Lot 99 Pty Ltd (Resolution 6). All Shares were issued at a deemed issue price of $0.30 per share in consideration for promotional and marketing services provided to the Company.

5.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12-month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12-month period.

5.3 ASX Listing Rule 7.4

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

By ratifying the issue of Shares, the subject of Resolutions 5 and 6, the base figure (ie. variable "A") in which the Company's 15% and 10% annual placement capacities are calculated will be a higher number which in turn will allow a proportionately higher number of securities to be issued without prior Shareholder approval.

5.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolutions 5 and 6 are passed, the Sharesthe subject of Resolutions 5 and 6, will be excluded in calculating the Company's 15% and 10% limits (if approved) under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A respectively, increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of issue of the Placement Shares.

If Resolutions 5 and/or 6 are not passed, the Shares will be included in calculating the Company's combined 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1, and 10% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A (if it is approved at this meeting), decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of issue of the Placement Shares.

5.5 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.5

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 5:

  • (a) 150,000 shares were issued to Mr. Simon Russell Francis, 26,667 were issued to StocksOnline Pty Ltd and 666,666 shares were issued to Lot 99 Pty Ltd;
  • (b) The shares issued were all fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company's existing Shares;
  • (c) 167,666 shares were issued on 30 June 2021 and 666,666 shares were issued on 2 August 2021;
  • (d) the issue price was $0.30 per Share. No funds were raised from the issue of Shares however they reduced liabilities owed by the Company;
  • (e) The shares were issued in consideration for promotional and marketing services provided to the Company.

6. RESOLUTION 7 - APPROVAL FOR ADDITIONAL SHARE PLACEMENT CAPACITY

6.1 General

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an Eligible Entity may seek Shareholder approval at its Annual General Meeting to allow it to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued capital (Additional Placement Capacity). For the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1A an 'eligible entity' is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less, QMines Limited is an 'eligible entity'. The Additional Placement Capacity is in addition to the Company's 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and, as such, if the Additional Placement Capacity is approved, the Directors will be allowed to issue equity securities of up to 25% of the Company's issued share capital without prior approval from shareholders.

The Company seeks Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to have the ability to issue equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity, should the need arise. The Company has not previously sought and obtained shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A.

As a special resolution at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders eligible to vote at the meeting must be in favour of the resolution for it to be passed.

6.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 7 is passed, QMines will be able to issue an additional 10% of shares without Shareholder approval under its placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A.

If Resolution 7 is not passed, the Company will only have 15% of placement capacity available to it, decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the next 12-month period.

6.3 ASX Listing Rule 7.3A Requirements

Pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.3A the issue price for each security issued under the Additional Placement Capacity will not be less than 75% of the volume weighted average price for securities in that class over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • the date on which the price at which the securities are to be issued is agreed by the entity and the recipient of the securities; or
  • if the securities are not issued within 10 trading days of the date above, the date on which the securities are issued.

The issue of equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity may result in voting dilution of existing ordinary shareholders (as shown in the table below). There is also the risk that:

  • the market price for equity securities in that class may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Annual General Meeting; and
  • the equity securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those equity securities on the issue date.

Table 1 following shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in ASX Listing Rule 7.3A.2 on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of ordinary securities quoted on ASX for variable "A" calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 as at the date of this Notice.

The table also shows:

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 number of ordinary securities on issue may increase as a result of issues of ordinary securities that do not require Shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or future specific placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders' meeting; and

ii. two examples of where the issue price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 50% against the current market price.

The above table is based on the following assumptions:

  • The number of shares on issue (variable "A") is calculated as 111,372,748 being all fully paid ordinary shares quoted on ASX as at the date of this Notice.
  • The Company issues the maximum number of equity securities available under the Additional Placement Capacity.
  • The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue.
  • The table shows only the issue of equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity and not under Listing Rule 7.1.
  • The issue of equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity includes only Shares.
  • The issue price of $0.40 was the opening price of shares on ASX on 11 October 2021.

Equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity may be issued until the earlier of:

  • the date on which the price at which the securities are to be issued is agreed by the entity and the recipient of the securities; or
  • the date that is 12 months after the date of the Annual General Meeting at which the approval is obtained; or
  • the date of approval by ordinary shareholders of a significant change to the Company's activities under ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2 or the date of approval by ordinary shareholders of a disposal of a major asset under ASX Listing Rule 11.2.
  • To be clear, any approval of the Additional Placement Capacity at this Annual General Meeting will cease to be valid in the event that ordinary shareholders approve a transaction under ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2 or 11.2.
  • The Company may issue equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity for cash consideration: to raise funds for the development of the Company's new and

existing products and services, the acquisition of new assets or investments (including assets associated with such acquisition), to repay debt or to fund working capital.

The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A.4 upon issue of any equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity.

The Company's allocation policy for issues under the Additional Placement Capacity is dependent on prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue. The identity of the allottees of the equity securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factors including but not limited to the following:

  • the purpose of the issue;
  • the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company, including rights issues or other issues in which existing shareholders may participate;
  • the effect of the issue of the equity securities on the control of the Company;
  • the financial situation and solvency of the Company;
  • prevailing market conditions; and
  • advice from the Company's advisors.

As the Company has no current plans to undertake a new capital raising, the allottees under the Additional Placement Capacity have not yet been determined but if such an exercise was undertaken, allottees may include existing substantial shareholders and/or new shareholders who are not related parties or associates of a related party of the Company.

QMines has not sought Additional Placement Capacity previously given this is the Company's first Annual General Meeting.

A voting exclusion statement has been included in this Notice. However, as at the date of this Notice, the Company has not approached any particular existing Shareholders to participate in the issue of equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity. No existing Shareholders' votes will therefore be excluded under the voting exclusion in the Notice.

When the Company issues equity securities pursuant to the Additional Placement Capacity, it will give to ASX a list of the allottees of the equity securities and the number of equity securities allotted to each (not for release to the market), in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A.4.

7. RESOLUTIONS 8, 9 & 10 – APPROVAL OF GRANT OF PERFORMANCE RIGHTS TO RELATED PARTIES

7.1 General

The Board recognises that it is desirable for directors and staff to be incentivised and remunerated on a consistent basis and in a manner that focuses their efforts on delivering longterm value for shareholders. The Board continually reviews the design of the Company's remuneration framework to ensure it meets its objective of being 'fit for purpose'. This includes reviewing the components of the awards to be issued to staff and directors to ensure everyone is focused on delivering long-term value.

This ensures that the remuneration framework supports the overall business strategy, ensures retention of directors and staff, is aligned with shareholder interests, is competitive, reflects market practice and is simple for both participants and shareholders to understand.

Approval is sought to grant the Chairman, Mr. Andrew Sparke, 3,500,000 Performance Rights, Ms Elissa Hansen 2,000,000 Performance Rights and Mr. Peter Caristo 250,000 Performance Rights. Each Performance Right converts into one fully paid ordinary share subject to the satisfaction of the vesting conditions (achievement of milestones) set out in Appendix A and expire 24 months and five days from the date of issue.

7.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolutions 8, 9 and 10 are passed, the Company will be able to grant Mr. Andrew Sparke 3,500,000 Performance Rights, Ms Elissa Hansen 2,000,000 Performance Rights and Mr. Peter Caristo 250,000 Performance Rights, allowing it to appropriately reward the Directors' performance and focus their efforts on delivering long-term value for shareholders. These will not reduce the Company's placement capacity to issue additional securities.

If Resolutions 8, 9 and 10 are not passed, the Company will not be able to grant the Performance Rights to the Directors and will need to negotiate appropriate alternative remuneration arrangements with each Director.

7.3 ASX Listing Rule 10.11

ASX Listing Rule 10.11 requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a director of the entity or an associate of a director or a person whose relationship with the entity or a director is, in ASX's opinion, should be approved by Shareholders, unless an exception applies.

7.4 Technical Information required by ASX Listing Rule 10.13

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to resolutions 8, 9 and 10:

  • (a) the Performance Rights are to be issued to:
    • (i) Mr. Andrew Sparke;
    • (ii) Ms. Elissa Hansen; and
    • (iii) Mr. Peter Caristo

who all fall within Listing Rule 10.11.1 by virtue of being directors of the Company. Mr. Sparke is also a substantial shareholder in the Company;

  • (b) the maximum number of Performance Rights proposed to be issued to:
    • (i) Mr. Andrew Sparke is 3,500,000;
    • (ii) Ms. Elissa Hansen is 2,000,000; and
    • (iii) Mr. Peter Caristo is 250,000.
  • (c) The material terms of the Performance Rights are set out in Appendix A;
  • (d) the Performance Rights will be issued no later than 23rd December 2021 and the Company expects to issue them as soon as practicable following the meeting and all on one date;
  • (e) The Performance Rights will be issued for nil consideration;
  • (f) The Performance Rights will be issued to incentivise directors and focus their efforts on delivering long-term value for shareholders.
  • (g) The directors' current (FY22) remuneration packages are:
    • (i) Mr. Andrew Sparke is $300,000 per annum;
    • (ii) Ms. Elissa Hansen is $30,000 per annum (plus $60,000pa as Company Secretary); and
    • (iii) Mr. Peter Caristo is $30,000 per annum plus statutory superannuation.

The Company opted to issue Performance Rights to the Directors to ensure they are focused on delivering long-term value for the Company and its Shareholders.

Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Shares to the Directors as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of Shares on conversion of Performance Rights, the subject of this resolution will not be included in the use of the Company's 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

(b) Grant Date

If Shareholder approval is obtained, the Performance Rights will be granted as soon as practicable after the AGM, but in any event, within 1 month of the AGM, and will have an effective grant date of 1 November 2021.

(c) Expiry Date

Each Performance Right will expire at 5:00 pm (Sydney time) on the date that is 24 months and 5 days years from the date of Grant of the Performance Rights (Expiry Date). A Performance Right not vested before the Expiry Date will automatically lapse on the Expiry Date.

The FY21 Long Term Incentive performance period is 24 months (2 years), commencing 1 November 2021 and ending 30 October 2023.

(e) Vesting

Vesting of Performance Rights will be subject to the Director's continued employment with by the Company and the satisfaction of specified conditions.

(f) Timing of issue of Shares on vesting

Within 15 Business Days of vesting, the Company will:

  • (i) issue the number of Shares required under these terms and conditions in respect of the number of Performance Rights that vests;
  • (ii) if required, give ASX a notice that complies with section 708A(5)(e) of the Corporations Act, or, if the Company is unable to issue such a notice, lodge with

(iii) if admitted to the official list of ASX at the time, apply for official quotation on ASX of Shares issued pursuant vesting of the Performance Rights.

If a notice delivered under (g)(ii) for any reason is not effective to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors, the Company must, no later than 20 Business Days after becoming aware of such notice being ineffective, lodge with ASIC a prospectus prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act and do all such things necessary to satisfy section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors.

(j) Transferability

Performance Rights are not transferable.

(k) Cessation of employment
