2 Introduction

• 2.1 This policy has been approved by the Board. The Board may approve any updates, amendments to and exemptions to this policy from time to time. If this policy conflicts with any other policy concerning this subject matter, this policy prevails to the extent of the inconsistency.

• 2.2 The ordinary shares and quoted options of the Company are listed on the ASX. The Company aims to achieve the highest possible standards of corporate conduct and governance.

• 2.3 The purpose of this policy is to ensure compliance with the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), and to ensure that every Stellar Resources Limited Person and their associates are aware of the legal restrictions that exist on dealing in the Company’s securities while such a person is in possession of price sensitive information concerning the Company.

• 2.4 The policy recognises that it is illegal for a person to deal in the Company’s securities when he or she is in possession of price sensitive information concerning the Company. This is regardless of whether the terms of this policy have been complied with.

• 2.5 This policy shall be distributed to every Stellar Resources Limited Person and it is the responsibility of each Stellar Resources Limited Person to comply with this policy. Any noncompliance with this policy will be considered as serious misconduct.

• 2.6 The restrictions set out in this policy are additional to any provisions governing or restricting the trading of securities set out in any agreement between the Company and a Stellar Resources Limited Person or a person holding securities in the Company or any provisions in the Company’s employee incentive plans (if any). Where the provisions of an agreement between

Page 5 of 11

the Company and a Stellar Resources Limited Person or a person holding securities in the Company conflict with the provisions of this policy, the most restrictive provisions will prevail.

3 Insider Trading

• 3.1 A person engages in insider trading if that person deals in securities of a relevant entity while possessing information that:

• (a) is not generally available ; and

• (b) if it were available, may have a material effect on the price or value of the relevant entity’s securities, and

the person knows, or ought reasonably to know, that the information is not generally available and, if it were, it might have a material effect on the price or value of the entity’s securities. This type of information is commonly referred to as “price sensitive information” or “inside information”.

• 3.2 Information is considered to have a material effect on the price or value of securities of a company if the information would, or would be likely to, influence persons who commonly invest in securities in deciding whether or not to subscribe for, buy or sell those securities.

• 3.3 The prohibition against insider trading applies to:

• (a) direct trading in the Company’s securities;

• (b) procuring another person to trade in the Company’s securities; or

• (c) communicating price sensitive information to another person who is likely to trade in the Company’s securities.

• 3.4 Insider trading is a criminal offence, punishable by substantial fines and/or imprisonment. The Company may in certain circumstances also be liable if a Stellar Resources Limited Person or their associate engages in insider trading. Insider trading may also attract civil liability, including liability to pay compensation to those who suffer loss or damage as a result of the insider trading.

• 3.5 The requirements imposed by this policy are separate from, and in addition to, the legal prohibitions on insider trading in Australia. Accordingly, under insider trading laws a person who possesses price sensitive information may be prohibited from trading even where the trading is permitted by this policy.

• 4.2 This policy does not apply to the following trading in the securities of the Company:

• (a) transfers of securities of the Company which result in no change to the beneficial interest in the securities;

• (b) transfers of securities of the Company between a Stellar Resources Limited Person and a related party of the Stellar Resources Limited Person;

• (c) transfers of securities of the Company by a Stellar Resources Limited Person to his or her superannuation fund;
