EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
Introduction
This Explanatory Memorandum has been prepared for the information of Shareholders in connection with the business to be conducted at the General Meeting to be held at 5.30pm (AEDT) on 20 January 2023 at Aunty Kims, 92-94 Johnston St, Collingwood VIC 3066.

Shareholders using this method will not be able to vote or ask questions in real time during the Meeting.
This Explanatory Memorandum should be read in conjunction with and forms part of the accompanying Notice. The purpose of this Explanatory Memorandum is to provide information to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions set out in the Notice.
This Explanatory Memorandum includes information to assist Shareholders in deciding how to vote on the Resolutions contained in the Notice.
Voting by proxy holders
If the Chairperson is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chairperson is to vote on Resolution 1 by signing and returning the Proxy Form (including via an online voting facility), you are considered to have provided the Chairperson with an express authorisation for the Chairperson to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chairperson’s intention.
The Chairperson of the Meeting intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1.
In exceptional circumstances, the Chairperson of the Meeting may change their voting intention on any Resolution, in which case an ASX announcement will be made.
Resolution 1 – Approval for Change of Company Name
Section 157(1)(a) of the Corporations Act provides that a company may change its name if the company passes a special resolution adopting a new name. Resolution 1 is a special resolution which seeks Shareholder approval for the proposed change of company name from “TNG Limited” to “Tivan Limited”.
Following the recent Annual General Meeting and Grant Wilson’s election as a director of the Company, the Board elected him as Chair of the Company (see ASX Announcement of 28 November 2022). Shortly thereafter, the Board announced that it proposed to change the company name to Tivan Limited (see ASX Announcement of 30 November). This step is consistent with the Board’s intention to immediately reset and renew the Company.
Changing the name of the Company sends a clear signal to shareholders and stakeholders that a new era has commenced.
The proposed new name is forward facing, culturally appropriate, aesthetically appealing and of high relevance to the Company’s mission. It is a name that shareholders and stakeholders are already familiar with. The Company additionally owns the TIVAN trademark. The proposed new name captures the criticality of the minerals at Mount Peake, specifically titanium (Ti) and vanadium (Van), and the verticality of the Company’s mineral processing technology. It is elegant, sleek, elemental and not constrained in terms of a specific geographic location.
Approval is also being sought in accordance with section 136 of the Corporations Act to amend the Constitution to replace all references to “TNG Limited” in the Constitution with references to “Tivan Limited”.
In accordance with sections 136(2) and 157(1)(a) of the Corporations Act, this Resolution is a special resolution which requires the approval of 75% of the Shareholders attending and entitled to vote at the Meeting voting in favour of the resolution.
5
The proposed name has been reserved with ASIC by the Company. If Resolution 1 is passed, the Company will apply to ASIC for the change of name which will take effect upon a new certificate of registration being issued.
Following the change of name, the Company will change its ASX code to “TVN”. Following approval by Shareholders, the Company will launch a new website and social media platforms. This will promote digital engagement with Shareholders and stakeholders, and facilitate a much broader, global audience.
Board recommendation
The Directors recommend Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.
Comment from Chair
I am delighted to bring this Resolution to Shareholders to mark the start of the new era at the Company.
In respect of the ASX ticker, following feedback from highly engaged Shareholders and the designers who contributed to the branding materials of Tivan Limited, the Board agreed to adopt “TVN” as the new ticker, subject to Resolution 1 being approved. This ticker has been reserved with the ASX.
I am pleased to advise that the Company will host special guests at the Meeting, including representation from the Northern Territory Government, Stirling Station (where Mount Peake is located), Critical Minerals Office (Canberra) and SMS Group (Germany).
