SCHEDULE 2 – ZIMC’S MEMBERS STATEMENT

Zhengyuan International Mining Company Ltd (ZIMC)

MEMBERS’ STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 249P OF THE CORPORATIONS ACT

As of May 3, 2024, Zhengyuan International Mining Company Ltd (ZIMC) holds a beneficial ownership of 12.55% of the issued shares of Zeus Resources Limited ( ZEU or the Company ). We are reaching out to seek your support in voting against resolutions 1-7 and voting for resolution 8,9 outlined in the Notice of Meeting.

It has come to our attention that the Company is making progresses recently by getting additional tenements in Australia, some of which possess significant potential for exploration. We believe that affording the Company more time to explore these opportunities is in the best interest of all shareholders.

Furthermore, we urge all shareholders to carefully consider the implications of recent developments, particularly concerning Mr Roberto Roderio Marusco and the proposed directors, Mr Alvin Tan and Mr Hugh Pilgrim. There are concerns regarding their affiliations with Mr Colin McKay and other shareholders who served a 249D notice on the company on April 16th. This raises questions about potential conflicts of interest and the independence of the proposed directors.

Specifically:

  1. Mr Marusco's ties to Mr McKay and other shareholders may compromise the board's decision-making process.

  2. The affiliations of Mr Tan and Mr Pilgrim with Mr McKay cast doubt on their objectivity and independence.

  3. Mr McKay's alleged attempt to gain control of the new board could disadvantage other shareholders.

  4. There is a risk of the Company being controlled by a minority associated group, which could jeopardize the interests of the majority of shareholders.

Mr McKay, in his previous role as Director of the Company, has caused considerable damage by failing to adhere to rules and regulations. His interview with the Financial Review in 2023 has tarnished the reputation of both fellow directors and the Company, as well as negatively impacting shareholder value.

In our view, Mr McKay's actions have indeed caused significant harm to the company. Interviews with media outlets can have far-reaching consequences, especially if they involve negative comments about the company or its directors. Damage to reputation and shareholder value can be serious issues that need to be addressed promptly and effectively.

14

We DO NOT trust Mr McKay to control the Company, and we believe that it is not in the best interest of all the shareholders.

We've taken note of the negative comments regarding Mr. Marusco's directorship on some website, and we strongly recommend that the Company conduct a thorough background check on Mr. Marusco. Given that he is nominated by Vast Honour, the Company should also consider requiring Vast Honour to nominate another director with a more robust qualification and stellar reputation, which would ultimately benefit the Company.

We advocate for the protection of shareholders' interests and urge you to vote against resolutions 1-7 and to vote for resolutions 8 and 9 as outlined in the Notice of Meeting. Resolutions 1-7 may lead to undue influence or control by certain parties. Your support is crucial in ensuring the Company's governance remains fair and transparent.

Should you require further information or clarification, please do not hesitate to reach out through Mr Sitong WU at [email protected].
