DIRECTOR'S LETTER

Dear Terrain Minerals Shareholder

Offer for your Terrain Minerals Shares

On behalf of Iron Mountain, I am pleased to offer you an opportunity to become a shareholder of Iron Mountain.

Iron Mountain is an ASX listed resource exploration company with a market capitalisation of approximately \$5.42 million (based on a share price of 8.0 cents and 67,748,753 ordinary shares on issue). Iron Mountain is a company dedicated to the growth of its iron ore resources. Following the successful completion of the merger, the Directors of Iron Mountain believe that there is potential for re-rating of the Combined Entity as a result of increased size and liquidity.

Iron Mountain's Offer of 1 Iron Mountain Share for every 2 Terrain Minerals Shares provides an opportunity to become a shareholder of Iron Mountain.

By accepting the Offer, you will retain exposure to the gold and nickel projects of Terrain Minerals and gain access to Iron Mountain's current interest in its iron ore projects.

The management of the combined Iron Mountain and Terrain Minerals will continue under the stewardship of the existing Directors of Iron Mountain if Iron Mountain achieves sufficient acceptances to control the Terrain Minerals Board.

To accept this Offer please follow the instructions set out in the Bidder's Statement and on the back of the Acceptance Form.

If you have any questions on how to accept the Offer please contact Iron Mountain on (08) 9225 6475 (within Australia) or +61 8 9225 6475 (outside Australia) or contact your broker or financial adviser.

PART B - PROFILE OF THE COMBINED ENTITY

$3.$ OVERVIEW OF THE COMBINED ENTITY

$3.1$ RATIONALE FOR THE OFFER

Iron Mountain's rationale for the acquisition of Terrain Minerals is to create a company with iron ore, gold and nickel resources and prospects and to achieve economies of scale by combining the exploration activities of both companies.

Iron Mountain is of the view that the superior cash resources of Iron Mountain will enable the gold and nickel projects of Terrain Minerals to be explored at a greater rate without the need of further dilution of the Terrain Mineral shareholders.

$3.2$ FORECASTS FOR THE COMBINED ENTITY

Iron Mountain is an exploration company that does not currently generate a revenue stream.

Accordingly, any forecasts for the Combined Entity would be speculative and subject to significant business and technical uncertainties and contingencies which are beyond the control of Iron Mountain. In these circumstances, the Iron Mountain Directors do not believe that providing forecasts of potential future revenue and expenditure is material to the decision of shareholders of Terrain Minerals in making a decision whether to accept the Iron Mountain Offer.

As far as Iron Mountain is aware, the directors of Terrain Minerals have not published any forecasts which could be incorporated into the profile of the Combined Entity.

EFFECT OF ACQUISITION ON IRON MOUNTAIN $3.3$

$(a)$ General effect of acquisition

The general effect of the acquisition on Iron Mountain will be to extend Iron Mountain's exploration strategy, by taking a controlling interest in an investment which is considered to provide the prospect of realising a high quality, value asset. This will provide an increased exposure to gold and nickel projects.

$(b)$ Effect of acquisition on Iron Mountain's capital structure

The consideration for the acquisition of the Terrain Minerals Shares to which the Offer relates will be satisfied by the issue of cash and Iron Mountain Shares.

The capital structure of Iron Mountain assuming Iron Mountain acquires 100% (assuming the 90% compulsory acquisition threshold is achieved) of Terrain Minerals or 50.1 % (the minimum acceptance condition is more than 50%) will be as follows.

Capital structure Acquisition of
$100\%$ of

Iron Mountain currently has granted 40,186,250 options exercisable at 20 cents on or before 1 February 2012.

Notes

This is an estimate only. The actual number of Iron Mountain Shares issued $(1)$ will vary depending on the number of Terrain Minerals Shareholders that will be entitled to an additional whole Iron Mountain Share due to the rounding up of fractional entitlements referred to in section 6.5.

Iron Mountain does not hold any Terrain Minerals Shares or Terrain Minerals Options.

$3.4$

PROFILE OF THE COMBINED ENTITY

$(a)$ Management

The Combined Entity will benefit from the skills and experience of the Iron Mountain Board.

$(b)$ Impact on the financial position of Iron Mountain

If Iron Mountain is successful in acquiring 100% of Terrain Minerals. the Combined Entity would have:

  • $(i)$ cash assets, as at 31 March 2009, of c. \$4.0 million and no debt (based on the pro forma balance sheet and the assumptions detailed in section 4.1); and
  • a diverse portfolio of exploration properties which is likely to be attractive to $(ii)$ investors, and lead to increased profile and liquidity for Iron Mountain Shares.

PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION 4.

$4.1$ COMBINED ENTITY PRO-FORMAS

$(a)$ Basis of preparation

The pro forma consolidated balance sheet has been prepared by consolidating Iron Mountain's balance sheet from the half year financial reports for the six months to 31 December 2008 and that of Terrain Minerals. A number of consolidation adjustments have been made to reflect the acquisition as set out in the notes to the table below.

The Combined Entity pro-forma balance sheet as at 31 December 2008 assumes that the acquisition of Terrain Minerals by Iron Mountain had been completed at that date. Accordingly, changes in the fair value since the balance sheet dates of the companies have not been recognised. The actual date of acquisition will be at a later date. In accordance with the requirements of Australian Accounting Standard AASB 3 "Business Combinations", the identifiable net assets of an entity must be measured at their fair value as at the date of acquisition of that entity. Accordingly, Iron Mountain will assess the fair value of identifiable net assets of Terrain Minerals on completion of the acquisition and having regard to the fair value of the Iron Mountain shares being issued to the shareholders of Terrain Minerals. On the basis of the 31 December 2008 balance sheet of Terrain Minerals that has been reviewed by the Company's auditor, the Directors of Iron Mountain believe that fair value of Terrain Minerals' deferred mineral exploration evaluation and development expenditure would be adjusted by \$5,362,899 to \$3,286,588 being the difference between fair value of the consideration of \$3,452,046 and the net assets of Terrain Minerals at 31 December 2008 of \$ 8,814,945. The fair value adjustment is set out in the consolidated entity pro-forma balance sheets below.

$(b)$ Consolidated Entity Pro-formas

The following table sets out the pro-forma consolidated balance sheet of the consolidated post-completion Combined Entity. It is based on the assumption that Iron Mountain acquires 100% of Terrain Minerals. In addition, sensitivity is shown highlighting the consolidated balance sheet of the post completion Combined Entity based on Iron Mountain acquiring 50.1 % of Terrain Minerals. The pro-forma balance sheet has been prepared as at 31 December 2008 on the basis that there have been no significant changes in the nature or scale of operating activities from 1 January 2009 to date.

For the purpose of the Consolidated Entity Pro-forma, Iron Mountain is considered to be both the accounting and legal acquirer under AASB 3 "Business Combinations'.

Terrain Minerals Shares 44.345.513 22,172,756 \$1,729,475

$(2)$ Based on the Iron Mountain closing share price of \$0.078 as at 20 March 2009 and assuming Iron Mountain acquires Terrain Minerals Shares to achieve 50.1% relevant interest in Terrain Minerals.

$(d)$ Fair value of the acquisition consideration

The fair value of the acquisition consideration has been based on the assumption that all Terrain Minerals Shareholders will accept the Offer and that none of the Terrain Minerals options currently on issue will be exercised. At the acquisition date, Terrain Minerals options are considered "out-of-the-money". The actual acquisition consideration will be based on the market value of Iron Mountain Shares, at the date of acquisition, in accordance with the requirements of AASB 3 "Business Combinations".

The value of shares issued by Iron Mountain in exchange for Terrain Minerals Shares will be recorded in Iron Mountain's separate financial statements as an investment in Terrain Minerals. On consolidation, this amount is considered to represent capitalised exploration expenditure and is therefore reported as such.

Reduction in cash $(e)$

Pro-forma adjustments have been made to reflect the estimated transaction costs related to the acquisition. A preliminary estimate of \$100,000 has been made to cover such costs in the event that Iron Mountain achieves less than 90 % acceptances. If Iron Mountain achieves greater than 90 % acceptances, duty in the order of \$225,000 will be payable by Iron Mountain on the basis that the mineral tenements held by Terrain Minerals are valued at \$4,250,000 (which is approximate market capitalisation of Terrain Minerals based on a share price of 4.8 cents).

Iron Mountain has chosen to early adopt AASB 3 "Business Combinations" (Revised March 2008). Consequently, Iron Mountain is also required to early adopt AASB 127 "Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements" (Revised March 2008). As a result, acquisition related costs (such as advisory, legal, accounting, valuation and other professional consultant costs) have been expensed in the period. Foreign shareholders who are not entitled to shares will be paid cash based on Iron Mountain's share price at acquisition date adjusted for relevant costs. In preparing the pro-forma balance sheet we have made the assumption that no such shareholders exist, however if such payments to Terrain Minerals shareholders are required they will be made from Iron Mountain's existing cash resources.

$(f)$ Adjustment relating to the fair value of Terrain Minerals' assets and liabilities acquired

The pro-forma consolidated balance sheet is based on the assumption that the fair value of the mineral tenements arising from the acquisition of Terrain Minerals is the difference between the acquisition consideration and the carrying value of the net assets of Terrain Minerals at the acquisition date, which is \$5,362,899. In accordance with AASB 3 "Business Combinations" Iron Mountain has elected to reflect these provisional fair value adjustments in the books of Terrain Minerals prior to acquisition.

In accordance with AASB 3(45) the provisional fair values may be subject to change following a detailed assessment of the fair values by Iron Mountain Directors, which will be undertaken subsequent to the acquisition and assumption of management control, including allocating the fair value of the identified assets and tenements. The Directors of Iron Mountain have a period of 12 months from the acquisition date to determine "final" fair values, in accordance with AASB 3.

In determining the cost of a business combination, AASB 3 "Business Combinations" requires the acquirer to measure the fair value of contingent liabilities acquired as part of a business combination. The fair value of a contingent liability is determined as the amount that a third party would charge to assume those contingent liabilities. Based on the information available to Iron Mountain, it is not possible to determine the fair value of any contingent liabilities of Terrain Minerals. A detailed assessment of the fair value of any contingent liabilities of Terrain Minerals, by Iron Mountain Directors, will be undertaken subsequent to the acquisition and assumption of management control. The recognition of any fair value for possible contingent liabilities of Terrain Minerals would lead to an increase in the value of mineral assets on consolidation, subject to valuation support.

Tax $(g)$

The pro-forma consolidated balance sheet does not include any adjustment to reflect the tax effect of tax losses or other temporary differences that may give rise to deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities as a result of the business combination.

The extent of any carry forward losses available to the Combined Entity will depend on the Combined Entity being able to satisfy tax loss recoupment provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997. Accordingly, Iron Mountain will assess the extent tax losses that can be utilised subsequent to the acquisition and management control.

The pro-forma consolidated balance sheet does not include any adjustments that may arise if the Combined Entity is eligible for and elects to enter tax consolidation. As noted in section 5, should Iron Mountain obtain 100% of the Terrain Minerals' securities, Iron Mountain intends to review the relevant legislation to determine eligibility and to weigh up the benefits and costs associated with making an election to form a consolidated tax group.

$(h)$ Impact of AIFRS

Both companies have prepared their balance sheets based on Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS).

$(i)$ Consistency of Accounting Policies

Based on the Terrain Minerals information which is publicly available, it appears that the accounting policies of Terrain Minerals are broadly consistent with those of Iron Mountain. It was noted that the depreciation methods for Plant and Equipment were not consistent as Iron Mountain uses the diminishing value method whilst Terrain Minerals uses the straight line method. In accordance with AASB 108 "Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors" a change in the method of depreciation is considered to be a change in accounting estimate and consequently any change in accounting estimate would apply prospectively. As a result, no adjustment has been made to the pro-forma balance sheet to recognise this difference in the depreciation method.

As noted in section 5, Iron Mountain intends to review Terrain Minerals' accounting policies upon the assumption of management control. To the extent that Iron Mountain does not have equivalent operating resource company policies it is expected that this review will result in Iron Mountain adopting Terrain Minerals' policies. No change in accounting policy is assumed for the purposes of the pro-forma consolidated accounts.

$(j)$ Accounting Treatment in the event of lack of control

The Offer includes a 50% minimum acceptance condition (see section 10.1). While Iron Mountain has no present intention to waive that condition, it reserves its right to declare the Offer free of that condition (or any other Defeating Condition of the Offer). In the event Iron Mountain does not obtain "control" of Terrain Minerals as a result of the Bid, but Iron Mountain does obtain "significant influence", Iron Mountain will account for its investment in Terrain Minerals using the equity method as shown in the pro-forma balance sheet above. The carrying amount of Iron Mountain's investment in Terrain Minerals would be initially measured at cost, determined based on the fair value of Iron Mountain shares issued as consideration. For reporting periods after acquisition, the carrying amount of Terrain Minerals will be increased or decreased for Iron Mountain's share of post-acquisition profits and losses, which will be recognised in Iron Mountain's Income Statement. In addition, Iron Mountain's share of movements in equity, such as reserves, and distributions from Terrain Minerals would also impact the carrying value of its investment in Terrain Minerals.

PART C - INTENTIONS

5. IRON MOUNTAIN'S INTENTIONS

$5.1$ INTRODUCTION

This section 5 sets out Iron Mountain's intentions in relation to:

  • $(a)$ the continuation of the business of Terrain Minerals;
  • $(b)$ any major changes to the business of Terrain Minerals and any redeployment of the fixed assets of Terrain Minerals; and
  • the future of the Terrain Minerals Board. $(c)$

These intentions are based on the information concerning Terrain Minerals, its business and the general business environment which is known to Iron Mountain at the time of preparation of this Bidder's Statement, which is limited to publicly available information.

Final decisions regarding these matters will only be made by Iron Mountain in light of material information and circumstances at the relevant time. Accordingly, the statements set out in this section 5 are statements of current intention only, which may change as new information becomes available to Iron Mountain or as circumstances change.

$5.2$ INTENTIONS UPON ACOUISITION OF 90% OR MORE OF THE TERRAIN MINERALS SHARES

This section 5.2 sets out Iron Mountain's current intentions if Iron Mountain acquires relevant interests in 90% or more of the Terrain Minerals Shares and it is entitled to proceed to compulsory acquisition of the remaining Terrain Minerals Shares under the Corporations Act.

$(a)$ Corporate matters

It is intended that Iron Mountain would:

  • $(i)$ proceed with compulsory acquisition of the outstanding Terrain Minerals Shares (including any Terrain Minerals Shares issued as a result of the exercise of Terrain Minerals Options after the end of the Offer Period and in the six weeks after Iron Mountain gives the compulsory acquisition notices) in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 6A of the Corporations Act;
  • $(ii)$ arrange for Terrain Minerals to be removed from the Official List of ASX;
  • $(iii)$ not retain the members of the Terrain Minerals Board; and
  • $(iv)$ if it becomes entitled to do so under the Corporations Act, seek to compulsorily acquire the Terrain Minerals Options which have not been exercised and that have not lapsed, and where other negotiated arrangements have not been agreed in relation to those Terrain Minerals Options.

$(b)$ Exploration

Iron Mountain intends to continue exploring the Terrain Minerals' tenements.

Tax Consolidation $(c)$

Iron Mountain does not have any specific intentions in relation to the formation of a tax consolidated group incorporating Iron Mountain and Terrain Minerals. Iron Mountain intends to conduct a detailed review of the relevant legislation to determine eligibility and to weigh up the potential benefits and disadvantages associated with making an election to form a consolidated tax group. Potential factors to be considered in this review include the availability of tax losses for the tax consolidated group, the ability to reset tax costs of Terrain Minerals' fixed assets and administration consequences.

The ability of Iron Mountain to capture any benefits and quantify costs will depend on amongst other things the detailed information to be provided by Terrain Minerals and discussions with Terrain Minerals management. Any attempt to quantify these benefits and costs at this time would be speculative.

INTENTIONS UPON ACOUISITION OF MORE THAN 50% OF THE TERRAIN 5.3 MINERALS SHARES, BUT LESS THAN 90%

This section 5.3 sets out Iron Mountain's current intentions if Iron Mountain acquires relevant interests in greater than 50% but less than 90% of the Terrain Minerals Shares. The implementation of any steps referred to in this section 5.3 would only be undertaken where those steps are in accordance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements, the Listing Rules, and the fiduciary and statutory duties of the directors of Terrain Minerals. In particular, the Terrain Minerals directors may only implement any such steps if they consider the steps to be in the best interests of Terrain Minerals Shareholders as a whole.

$(a)$ Corporate matters

It is intended that Iron Mountain would:

$(i)$ request the appointment of nominees of Iron Mountain to the board such that the Iron Mountain nominees comprised a majority of the board; and

$(ii)$ if Terrain Minerals is left with less than the number or spread of shareholders required under the listing rules of ASX, consider seeking to have Terrain Minerals removed from the official list of ASX. This would affect the liquidity of Terrain Minerals Shares. However, holders of Terrain Minerals Shares should note that the liquidity of those shares may be reduced even if listing on ASX is maintained.

$(b)$ Other matters

If Iron Mountain acquires relevant interests in greater than 50% but less than 90% of the Terrain Minerals Shares, Iron Mountain's intentions in relation to:

  • $(i)$ the exploration activities of Terrain Minerals; and
  • $(ii)$ the executives and employees of Terrain Minerals,

are the same as those set out in paragraphs (b) and (c) of section 5.2.

5.4 INTENTIONS UPON ACQUISITION OF LESS THAN 50% OF THE TERRAIN MINERALS SHARES

The Offer includes a 50% minimum acceptance condition (see section 10.1). While Iron Mountain has no present intention to waive that condition, it reserves its right to declare the Offer free of that condition (or any other Defeating Condition of the Offer).

In those circumstances, Iron Mountain's actions will be dependent on the percentage of Terrain Minerals Shares acquired under the Offers. Iron Mountain has therefore not formed a view on its intentions upon acquisition of less than 50% of Terrain Minerals Shares. However, Iron Mountain may seek to implement the intentions set out in this section 5 to the extent that it is lawfully able to do so.

$5.5$ OTHER INTENTIONS

Subject to the above, including the outcome of the review of Terrain Minerals operations to be undertaken by Iron Mountain, it is the present intention of Iron Mountain, on the basis of the information concerning Terrain Minerals which is known to it at the date of this Bidder's Statement and the existing circumstances affecting the business of Terrain Minerals, that:

  • the business of Terrain Minerals will otherwise be continued in substantially the same $(a)$ manner as it is presently being conducted;
  • $(b)$ no other major changes will be made to the business of Terrain Minerals;
  • there will not be any other redeployment of the fixed assets of Terrain Minerals. $(c)$

5.6 UNCERTAIN BENEFITS TO IRON MOUNTAIN

Some of the intentions noted in this section 5 may provide benefits to Iron Mountain that are not currently available to Terrain Minerals Shareholders. The exact extent and timing of those benefits are currently uncertain, and the ability of Iron Mountain to capture any benefits will depend on, amongst other things, detailed review and expert reports, particularly in the ability to sell exploration tenements.

Any attempt to quantify these benefits at this time would be speculative.

PART F - RISK FACTORS

16. RISK FACTORS

$16.1$ OVERVIEW

Terrain Minerals shareholders who accept the Offer will become shareholders in Iron Mountain. The financial performance and operations of Iron Mountain's businesses, the price of Iron Mountain Shares and therefore the returns received by Iron Mountain shareholders will be influenced by a range of factors. Some of these factors can be mitigated by the use of safeguards and appropriate commercial action. However, many of these factors are beyond the control of Iron Mountain and the Iron Mountain board.

This section describes certain risk factors associated with an investment in Iron Mountain. Terrain Minerals shareholders should consider carefully these risk factors and the other information contained in this Bidder's Statement.

INVESTMENT RISK $16.2$

Terrain Minerals shareholders should be aware that there are risks associated with an investment in shares quoted on a stock exchange. Share price movements could affect the value of the consideration paid under the Offer and the value of any investment in Iron Mountain. The value of Iron Mountain Shares can be expected to fluctuate depending on various factors including general worldwide economic conditions, changes in government policies, investor perceptions, and movements in interest rates and stock markets, as well as the performance of Iron Mountain, including exploration results. There is no guarantee of profitability, dividends, return of capital, or the price at which the Iron Mountain Shares will trade on ASX after completion of the Offer. The past performance of Iron Mountain is not necessarily an indication as to future performance as the trading price of shares can go up or down.

GENERAL ECONOMIC CONDITIONS 16.3

Factors, such as, but not limited to the following, could impact on Iron Mountain's revenues, operating costs, profit margins and share price:

  • movements in the Australian dollar and world commodity prices, ⋗
  • economic conditions in Australia and overseas, and $\blacktriangleright$
  • movements in domestic and international interest rates and share markets. $\triangleright$

Whilst Iron Mountain will attempt to mitigate these factors by implementing appropriate safeguards and commercial actions, these factors are largely beyond the control of Iron Mountain.

MARKET CONDITIONS 16.4

The profitability of Iron Mountain will depend, in part, on market factors. World market prices for metals and minerals are subject to many variables and may fluctuate significantly.

OPERATING RISKS 16.5

Iron Mountain's future operating performance, financial position and profitability will be subiect to the types of risks inherent to direct investment in mining and exploration activities, including:

  • $\blacktriangleright$ metallurgical issues that may affect mineral recoveries and plant performance;
  • $\blacktriangleright$ unexpected adverse geological or geotechnical issues which can cause stoppages or affect the ability to meet contractual commitments for delivery of products;
  • $\triangleright$ exploration results:
  • increases in the cost of supplies, raw materials and capital and operating equipment can $\blacktriangleright$ adversely impact operating and capital costs; and
  • $\blacktriangleright$ environmental and safety issues.

Other commercial risks include Terrain Minerals' existing borrowing commitments. The interest rate risk attached to these borrowings mayor may not be hedged to the full extent. To the extent borrowings are not at fixed interest rates or are not fully hedged, those borrowings will be exposed to movements in interest rates.

16.6 GROWTH

Iron Mountain will continue to seek to grow both organically and through new investment opportunities.

LEGISLATION 16.7

Changes to legislation or government policy in Australia or overseas could be detrimental to participants or investors in the resources industry and may have a negative impact on Iron Mountain.

16.8 INTEGRATION RISK

Possible synergies and efficiencies are described in section 5 of this Bidder's Statement. Iron Mountain expects that value can be added for shareholders of the merged entity by the efficient and timely integration of the businesses. If Iron Mountain is unable to acquire 90% of Terrain Minerals' Shares, or to acquire a controlling shareholding in Terrain Minerals, under the Offer and elects to waive the minimum acceptance condition, it may not achieve all the benefits described in section 5 of this Bidder's Statement.

Conduct and timing of the integration will depend on the results of the review of Terrain Minerals referred to in section 5 of this Bidder's Statement. However, the risk exists that any integration may take longer than expected or that any efficiencies may be less than estimated.

OTHER MATERIAL INFORMATION 20.

STATUS OF CONDITIONS 20.1

The conditions of the Offer are set out in section 10.1. Further details on some of these conditions are set out below.

Minimum acceptance condition $(a)$

The Offer is subject to a condition that Iron Mountain has a relevant interest in more than 50% (by number) of the sum of the number of Terrain Minerals Shares on issue at that time and the number of Terrain Minerals Shares required to be issued on the exercise of rights attached to all Terrain Minerals Options in existence at that time (see section $10.1$ (a)).

Iron Mountain will not waive the minimum acceptance condition unless it considers that it is in Iron Mountain's best interest to do so at the relevant time. Should it waive the condition, Iron Mountain may seek to implement its intentions for Terrain Minerals set out in this Bidder's Statement if it is lawfully able to do so (including by seeking to implement changes to the board of Terrain Minerals).

Other regulatory action or approvals $(b)$

The Offer is subject to all necessary regulatory Approvals being obtained (see section 10.1(b) and certain actions not being taken by any Public Authority (see section $10.1(c)$ ).

Iron Mountain is not aware of any regulatory approvals which will need to be obtained. Iron Mountain therefore expects these conditions to be satisfied.

$(c)$ Change in control

The Offer is subject to there being no existing agreements or arrangements under which other parties have rights to terminate or vary a material agreement or arrangement with Terrain Minerals, or acquire a material asset of Terrain Minerals, as a result of Iron Mountain's acquisition of Terrain Minerals Shares, except where a waiver of those rights has been obtained (see section 10.1(d)).

The Offer is also subject to disclosure to the ASX by Terrain Minerals of details of any rights referred to above (see section 10.1(e)).

Terrain Minerals is best placed to advise its shareholders whether or not such agreements or arrangements exist and, if such agreements or arrangements do exist, whether the other parties to such agreements or arrangements are likely to waive or vary their rights.

No material adverse change, material transactions or other changes, or prescribed $(d)$ occurrences

The Offer is subject to there being no material acquisitions, disposals, commitments or certain other changes in the conduct of Terrain Minerals' business and affairs (see sections $10.1(f)$ and $10.1(k)$ ).

The Offer is subject to nothing occurring, or becoming public, which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Terrain Minerals and its subsidiaries taken as a whole (see section $10.1(g)$ ) during the Condition Period.

The Offer is also subject to there being no "prescribed occurrences" during the Condition Period (see section $10.1(h)$ and $10.1(i)$ ).

Any such acquisitions, disposals, commitments or changes by Terrain Minerals or any of its subsidiaries would potentially frustrate the Offer and deny Terrain Minerals Shareholders the opportunity to participate in the benefits accruing to them under the Offer.

Terrain Minerals is in the best position to advise its shareholders whether or not each of these conditions will be satisfied.

No dividends or distributions $(e)$

This Offer is subject to Terrain Minerals or any subsidiary not declaring, distributing or resolving to pay or provide any dividend, bonus or other share of its profits or assets (see section $10.1(i)$ ).

The Offer is subject to the S&P/ASX not falling below 3000 on any trading day during the Condition Period (see section 10.1(l)).

No material failing in filings $(g)$

Terrain Minerals is best placed to advise its shareholders whether or not such a document exists.

APPROVALS FOR PAYMENT OF CONSIDERATION 20.2

NO OTHER MATERIAL INFORMATION 20.3

APPENDIX 3

RIGHTS ATTACHING TO IRON MOUNTAIN SHARES

RANKING OF IRON MOUNTAIN SHARES $\mathbf{1}$ .

The Iron Mountain Shares to be issued under the Offers will be issued fully paid and will rank equally for dividends and other rights with existing Iron Mountain Shares.

THE CONSTITUTION OF IRON MOUNTAIN $2.$

Under section $140(1)$ of the Corporations Act, the constitution of Iron Mountain has effect as a contract between Iron Mountain and each member and between a member of Iron Mountain and each other member. Accordingly, if you accept Iron Mountain as consideration you will, as a result, become liable to comply with the constitution of Iron Mountain. However, since the Iron Mountain Shares issued as consideration under the Offers will be issued credited as fully paid, no monetary liability attaches to them.

The constitution of Iron Mountain also sets out the principal rights attaching to Iron Mountain Shares. This Appendix provides a summary of these rights and the liabilities attaching to Iron Mountain Shares. It does not purport to be exhaustive or to constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of shareholders of Iron Mountain. Such rights and liabilities involve complex questions of law arising from the interaction of the constitution and statutory and common law requirements. Shareholders should seek their own advice when trying to establish their rights and liabilities in specific circumstances.

RIGHTS ATTACHING TO IRON MOUNTAIN SHARES $\overline{3}$ .

General meeting and notices $(a)$

Each member is entitled to receive a notice of, and to attend and vote at, general meeting of Iron Mountain and to receive all notices, accounts and other documents required to be sent to members under Iron Mountain's constitution, the Corporations Act or the ASX Listing Rules.

$(b)$ Voting rights

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares, at a general meeting of Iron Mountain every holder of fully paid ordinary shares present in person or by an attorney, representative or proxy has one vote on a show of hands (unless a member has appointed two proxies or has appointed a proxy who is also a member, in which case the proxy or proxies has or have no vote on a show of hands) and one vote per share on a poll.

A person who holds a share which is not fully paid is entitled, on a poll, to a fraction of a vote equal to the proportion which the amount paid bears to the total issue price of the share.

Where there are two or more joint holders of a share and more than one of them is present at a general meeting, in person or by proxy, attorney or representative, and tender a vote in respect of the share, Iron Mountain will count only the vote cast by, or on behalf of, the member whose name appears first in Iron Mountain's register of members.

Offers of further shares $(c)$

The Board may, on behalf of Iron Mountain, offer, grant options over or otherwise dispose of unissued shares to any person on the terms, with the rights, and at the time that the Board decides. However, the Board must act in accordance with the restrictions imposed by Iron Mountain's constitution, the ASX Listing Rules, the Corporations Act and any rights for the time being attached to the shares in any special class of those shares.

Transfer of shares $(d)$

Subject to Iron Mountain's constitution, the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, ordinary shares are freely transferable.

The Shares may be transferred by any computerised or electronic system of transferring or dealing with shares established or recognised by the Corporations Act, the ASX Listing Rules or the Operating Rules and as otherwise permitted by the Corporations Act or by a document, the usual form of which is permitted by law.

The Board may refuse to register a transfer of shares only if that refusal would not contravene the ASX Listing Rules or the Operating Rules. If the Board refuses to register a transfer, Iron Mountain must give the lodging party written notice of the refusal and the reasons for it within 5 business days after the transfer is delivered to Iron Mountain. The Board must not register a transfer of shares if the Corporations Act, the ASX Listing Rules or the Operating Rules forbid registration.

Partly paid Shares $(e)$

The Board may, subject to compliance with Iron Mountain's constitution, the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, issue partly paid shares upon which there are outstanding amounts payable. See paragraph (b) above for voting rights for partly paid shares and paragraph (f) below for dividend rights.

$(f)$ Dividends

Subject to Iron Mountain's constitution and the Corporations Act, the Board may resolve to pay any dividend it thinks appropriate and fix the time for payment. Subject to the terms of issue of shares, Iron Mountain may pay a dividend on one class of shares to the exclusion of another class.

Each share of a class on which the Board resolves to pay a dividend carries the right to participate in the dividend in the same proportion that the amount for the time being paid on the share (excluding any amount paid in advance of calls) bears to the total issue price of the share.

Winding up $(g)$

Subject to the terms of issue of shares, if Iron Mountain is wound up, members will be entitled to participate in any surplus assets of Iron Mountain in proportion to the percentage of the capital paid up on their shares.

Dividend reinvestment and share plans $(h)$

The Board may adopt and implement dividend reinvestment plans (under which any member may elect that dividends payable by Iron Mountain be reinvested by way of subscription for fully paid shares in Iron Mountain) and any other share plans (under which any member may elect to forego any dividends that may be payable on all or some of the shares held by that member and to receive instead some other entitlement, including the issue of full paid shares).
