Explanatory Statement
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of Shareholders in relation to the business to be conducted at the General Meeting.
The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide Shareholders with all information known to the Company which is material to a decision on how to vote on the Resolutions in the accompanying Notice of General Meeting.
This Explanatory Statement should be read in conjunction with the Notice of General Meeting. Capitalised terms in this Explanatory Statement are defined in the Glossary.
1. Resolution 1– Approval to issue Performance Rights to General Manager, Mr Gareth McArthur
1.1 Background
The Company announced the appointment of Mr Gareth McArthur as General Manager, Project Development on 23 February 2026 “Key Appointment for Development at Abercromby”.
As described in that announcement, the Company has agreed to issue a total of 10,000,000 performance rights to Mr McArthur. These performance rights are set out in the table below.
| Tranche | Number | Performance Criteria |
|---|---|---|
| One | 5,000,000 | At any time during the period from the date of grant of the Performance Rights to 31 December 2027, the VWAP of Shares traded on ASX over 10 consecutive trading days on which Shares have actually traded is A$0.05 or more. |
| Two | 5,000,000 | Commencement by the Company of mining operations at the Abercromby Gold Project by 31 December 2027. |
The Company now wishes to issue the 10,000,000 General Manager Performance Rights to the Company’s General Manager, Project Development, Mr Gareth McArthur, on the terms set out in Schedule 2 ( General Manager Performance Rights ), pursuant to the Company’s Employee Incentive Plan. The Company has determined that the grant of General Manager Performance Rights under the Company’s Employee Incentive Plan is an appropriate form of long-term incentive for the Company’s General Manager, Project Development.
The General Manager Performance Rights will be issued for nil cash consideration, and no funds will be raised as a result.
The terms of the General Manager Performance Rights are outlined in Schedule 2.
The Incentive Plan was approved by Shareholders at a general meeting of the Company held on 26 November 2025.
The Company’s Employee Incentive Plan is available on the Company’s website (http://bmgl.com.au/corporate/corporate-governance.html) and a summary of the Employee Incentive Plan is set out in Schedule 1 of this Notice.
1.2 Listing Rule requirements
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
- 7 -
any 12-month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary shares it had on issue at the start of that period.
The issue of the General Manager Performance Rights pursuant to Resolution 1 does not fall within any of these exceptions and exceeds the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1. It therefore requires the approval of the Company’s Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
Whilst the proposed issue of the General Manager Performance Rights may have been issued to Mr McArthur pursuant to exception 13 of Listing Rule 7.2, the Company has agreed with Mr McArthur for the rights to be issued subject to the receipt of shareholder approval.
Purpose and effect of Resolution 1
Resolution 1 is an ordinary resolution to approve the issue of 10,000,000 General Manager Performance Rights to Mr McArthur for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolution 1 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue. In addition, the Shares will be excluded from the calculation of the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue and will have to enquire into alternative methods of remunerating Mr McArthur, including a cash payment fee.
1.3 Listing Rule information requirements
The following information is provided in relation to Resolution 1, as required by Listing Rule 7.3:
(a) The name of the persons
The Company is proposing to issue the General Manager Performance Rights to the Company’s General Manager, Project Development, Mr Gareth McArthur, or his nominee(s). Mr McArthur is not a Related Party of the Company.
(b) Number and class of securities the Company will issue
The maximum number of General Manager Performance Rights to be issued is 10,000,000.
(c) Summary of material terms of securities
The terms of the General Manager Performance Rights are outlined in Schedule 1.
(d) Date(s) on or by which the Company will issue securities
The General Manager Performance Rights will be issued on one date after Shareholders have approved the issue, but in any case, not later than 3 months after the date of Shareholder approval pursuant to this Resolution 1 or such later date as approved by ASX.
(e) Price the Company will receive for the securities
The General Manager Performance Rights will be issued for nil cash consideration
(f) Purpose of the issue and intended use for any funds raised
The General Manager Performance Rights are proposed to be issued for the Company to honour its agreement with Mr McArthur for the grant of Performance Rights, as
- 8 -
described in the Company’s announcement of 23 February 2026 “Key Appointment for Development at Abercromby”.
There will be no funds raised from the issue of the General Manager Performance Rights.
(g) Summary of material terms of agreement securities are being issued under
As described at Section 1.1, the Company engaged Mr McArthur as its General Manager, Project Development. The Company has engaged Mr McArthur pursuant to a consultancy agreement with parties including Blixem Pty Ltd (Consultant) of which Mr McArthur is a director. The Consultant is paid a fee of $20,000 per month (exclusive of GST) for the provision of Mr McArthur’s services to the Company. In addition to this fee, the Company agreed to issue the General Manager Performance Rights.
(h) Voting exclusion statement
A voting exclusion statement for Resolution 1 is included at pg. 3.
1.4 Directors’ recommendation
The Board believes that the proposed issue is beneficial for the Company and recommends Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1. It will allow the Company to retain the flexibility to issue further Equity Securities representing up to 15% of the Company’s share capital during the next 12 months.
2. Resolution 2 – Approval to change the Company’s name to WA Gold Limited
2.1 Background
Resolution 2 seeks approval for the Company to change its company name from ‘BMG Resources Limited’ to WA Gold Limited.
The Board is of the view that changing the Company’s name to WA Gold Limited will significantly aid in investor recognition and better align the Company’s name to its operations.
Pursuant to section 157(1)(a) of the Corporations Act, the Company may change its company name by special resolution, which requires the approval of at least 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders attending and entitled to vote at the Meeting.
This change will not, in itself, affect the legal status of the Company or any of its assets or liabilities. If the name change is approved by Shareholders, the Company will lodge the relevant form with ASIC within 14 days of the Resolution being passed. The change of name will take effect when ASIC alters the details of the Company’s registration
Approval is also being sought to amend the Constitution to replace all references to “BMG Resources Limited” with “WA Gold Limited”.
If the name change is approved by Shareholders, the Company will seek to change its ASX code from BMG to WAU. Details of the change in ASX code including the timetable for the change will be announced to the ASX following shareholder approval.
2.2 Directors’ recommendation
The Directors recommend shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2. The Chairman will vote all undirected proxies in favour of this Resolution.
