Executive Chairman - Extension of Term

The Board of Tivan Limited (ASX: TVN) (“Tivan” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that Mr Grant Wilson has agreed to extend his term as Executive Chairman of Tivan by three years to 28 November 2028. The agreement reached provides continuity of leadership at Tivan, an important outcome for shareholders, stakeholders and partners as the Company moves toward its project development phase.

Mr Wilson was appointed as Executive Chairman of Tivan as of 28 November 2022. Following an initial phase of “reset, review, renew”, Mr Wilson agreed to extend his term to 28 November 2025 (see ASX announcement of 13 July 2023).

The Board recognises the pivotal strategic leadership role that Mr Wilson has played in the transformation of the Company, and in setting the foundations for achievement of Tivan’s mission of building a company of strategic importance across northern Australia. These foundations include the recently announced binding joint venture with leading Japanese trading house and Fortune Global 500 company Sumitomo Corporation to develop the Speewah Fluorite Project.

Following a review of peer compensation, the Board (in the absence of Mr Wilson) has determined revised compensation arrangements for Mr Wilson, which are summarised as follows:

  • An increase in Mr Wilson’s base salary from $350,000 per annum (exclusive of superannuation) to $400,000 per annum (exclusive of superannuation) with effect from 1 July 2025.

  • Subject to shareholder approval, an offer to Mr Wilson of:

  • ➢ 3 million performance rights as part of his short-term incentive arrangements; and ➢ 6 million performance rights as part of his long-term incentive arrangements.

The terms of the performance rights are summarised in Appendix A to this announcement. The offers of performance rights to Mr Wilson are subject to shareholder approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.11, planned to be sought at the Company’s 2025 Annual General Meeting.

The performance rights are designed to align Mr Wilson’s tenure and performance with future value creation at Tivan across the Company’s development projects and corporate initiatives. The performance rights are linked to Mr Wilson’s ongoing tenure and the performance of Tivan as measured through the Company’s share price, ensuring alignment with shareholders as an “100% at risk” component of Mr Wilson’s compensation.

Mr Wilson’s compensation was previously reviewed in July 2024 (see ASX announcement of 29 July 2024).

The Board is also reviewing compensation arrangements for Tivan’s management team and the Non-Executive Directors as part of its annual firmwide review (see previously, ASX announcement of 8 August 2024). The Board intends to announce any resulting changes later this month.

Comment from Tivan Non-Executive Director Ms Christine Charles on behalf of the Board:

Ms Charles commented:

“The independent Directors of Tivan are pleased to advise that they have undertaken a review of compensation, with a view to strengthening the alignment of the leadership and the team with the interests of Tivan shareholders. The review has included an extensive peer review process across the elements of the Company's awards scheme.

The Non-Executive Directors recognise the outstanding leadership, drive, vision and contribution of Mr Wilson as he had led Tivan through a profound period of renewal and transformation leading to significant company making achievements.

Mr Wilson is critical to Tivan's ongoing success, and the Non-Executive Directors are delighted to advise that Mr Wilson has accepted an extension of his tenure for an additional 3 years, providing certainty and stability moving forward.

Today we are pleased to also announce changes to Mr Wilson's compensation and at-risk incentives which reflect Tivan's commitment to alignment with shareholder and stakeholder value, and the criticality of Mr Wilson’s ongoing role delivering market leading outcomes for the Company."

This announcement has been approved by the Board of the Company.
