EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
ITEM 1: Financial Report – Year ended 30 June 2025
The Corporations Act requires the Financial Report (which includes the financial statements
and the Directors' Declaration), the Directors' Report and the Auditor's Report to be tabled for
discussion at the AGM. There is no requirement either in the Corporations Act or in the
Constitution for Shareholders to approve the Financial Report, the Directors' Report or the
Auditor's Report. Shareholders attending the AGM will be given a reasonable opportunity to
ask questions about, or make comments on, these reports.
This item of business provides Shareholders with an opportunity to ask questions concerning
or make comments on the Company's financial statements and reports for the financial year
ended 30 June 2025 and the Company's performance generally.
A representative of the Auditor (BDO Audit) will be attending the AGM.
As a Shareholder, you are entitled to submit a written question to the Auditor prior to the AGM
provided that the question relates to:
• the content of the Auditor's Report; or
• the conduct of the audit in relation to the Financial Report.
All written questions must be received by the Company no later than 21 November 2025. All
questions must be sent to the Company by email to andrew.cooke@southernpalladium.com
and may not be sent directly to the Auditor. The Company will then forward all relevant
questions to the Auditor.
The Auditor will answer written questions submitted prior to the AGM.
The Auditor will also answer questions at the meeting from Shareholders relevant to:
• the conduct of the audit;
• the preparation and content of the Auditor's Report;
• the accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of the
financial statements; and
• the independence of the Auditor in relation to the conduct of the audit.
1. RESOLUTION 1: Remuneration Report
The Directors' Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2025 contains a Remuneration
Report which sets out the policy on remuneration of the Directors of the Company and specified
executives of the Company.
Section 250R(2) Corporations Act requires that a resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report
must be put to the vote at the annual general meeting. The Corporations Act expressly provides
that the vote is advisory only and does not bind the Directors of the Company.
Notwithstanding the non-binding nature of the vote, the Directors will take note of the outcome
of the vote when considering future remuneration matters.
Members attending the AGM will be given a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or
make comments on, the Remuneration Report.
Under sections 250U and 250V of the Corporations Act, if at least 25% of the votes cast on
Resolution 1 are against the adoption of the relevant remuneration report at two consecutive
annual general meetings (with a 25% or more vote 'against' commonly referred to as a "first
strike" or "second strike"), the Company will be required to put to Shareholders a resolution at
the later of those annual general meetings proposing that an extraordinary general meeting
(Spill Meeting) be called to consider the election of Directors of the Company (Spill
Resolution). The Spill Meeting must be held within 90 days of the date of the second annual
general meeting. For a Spill Resolution to be passed, more than 50% of the votes cast on the
resolution must be in favour of it. If a Spill Resolution is passed, all of the Directors (other than
any Managing Director) will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting
unless re-elected at that meeting.
At the Company's 2025 Annual General Meeting, a "first strike" was not recorded in respect of
the Remuneration Report. Accordingly, a Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Meeting.
Recommendation
The Directors abstain, in the interests of good corporate governance, from making a
recommendation in relation to Resolution 1.
Subject to the voting exclusions set out in the Notice of Meeting, the Chairman of the Meeting
intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1.
2. RESOLUTION 2: Re-Election of Mr Robert Thomson as a Director
2.1 ASX Listing Rules 14.4, 14.5 and the Constitution of the Company
ASX Listing Rule 14.4 provides that a director of an entity must not hold office (without re-
election) past the third annual general meeting following the director's appointment or 3 years,
whichever is longer. This rule does not apply to the Managing Director.
ASX Listing Rule 14.5 provides that an entity which has directors must hold an election of
directors at each annual general meeting.
The provisions of Clause 41 of the Company's Constitution provides that any Directors, who is
not the Managing Director, who holds office for a continuous period in excess of three years
or until the third annual general meeting following the Director's appointment or election,
whichever is long, must submit for re-election.
Out of the current Directors who may be required to retire by rotation, Mr Robert Thomson has
held office for the longest period of time since his last election (which occurred at the
Company's 2022 AGM on 30 November 2022).
Accordingly, in accordance with clause 41 of the Constitution and ASX Listing Rule 14.5, Mr
Thomson will retire by rotation and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election as a Director.
2.2 Key Information relating to Mr Robert Thomson – Independent Non-Executive Director
Robert Thomson has a 40 year mining career, including CEO/Executive Director and
GM/Project Director roles building and commercialising junior company gold and base metals
exploration projects into significant mining operations and businesses (e.g. Sepon. Chatree,
Didipio, Wetar).
From 2016 to 2021 he was Managing Director, then non-executive director for South Africa
focussed Theta Gold Mines Limited. He has a Bachelor of Engineering (Mining) from the
University of Queensland, an MBA from the University of Wollongong and is a Fellow of the
Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers. Currently he is an independent
non-executive director of Pacific Nickel Mines Limited and Bayrock Resources Limited.
Mr Thomson was appointed as a Non-Executive Director on the 4th of December 2020. Mr
Thomson is also a member of the Audit and Risk Committee and a member and Chairman of
the Nomination and Remuneration Committee
2.3 Recommendation
The Directors (other than Mr Thomson) recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of
Resolution 2.
The Chairman of the Meeting intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 2.
3. RESOLUTION 3 – Approval to issue securities under the Southern Palladium Equity
Incentive Plan
3.1 Background
The Board has reviewed the need for an equity incentive plan, having regard to the employee
share scheme provisions in Part 7.12, Division 1 of the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing
Rules. As a result of that review, the Board resolved to adopt the Southern Palladium Limited
Equity Incentive Plan, which it did on 14 October 2025.
Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval, pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13), to
adopt the Equity Incentive Plan and to enable Performance Rights, and Shares upon exercise
or conversion of those Performance Rights, and Shares to be issued under the Employee
Incentive Plan to eligible Directors and employees (Equity Securities) to be exempted from
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 for a period of 3 years from the date on which Resolution 3 is passed.
A summary of the Equity Incentive Plan is set out in Schedule 1. The Plan can be viewed in
the 'Corporate Governance' section of the Company's website, located at
https://www.southernpalladium.com/site/about/corporate-governance.
3.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13(b)
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue
or agree to issue more Equity Securities during any 12 month period than that amount which
represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement
of that 12 month period without Shareholder approval.
ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)) sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 which
provides that issues under an employee incentive scheme are exempt for a period of 3 years
from the date on which Shareholders approve the issue of securities under the scheme as an
exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
The Board has adopted a new employee incentive scheme called the Southern Palladium
Equity Incentive Plan (Plan or Equity Incentive Plan).
Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval for the Employee Incentive Plan and for the issue of
Equity Securities under the Plan for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13(b),
and for all other purposes.
If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to issue a limited number of Equity
Securities under the Plan to eligible participants over a period of 3 years without impacting on
the Company's ability to issue up to 15% of its total ordinary securities without Shareholder
approval in any 12 month period (subject to Resolution 11 being approved by Shareholders,
the capacity will be increased to 25%, including the 10% Placement Facility).
If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Company will still be able to issue Equity Securities under
the Plan to eligible participants, however any securities issued under the Plan will count
towards its 15% capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (subject to Resolution 11 being approved
by Shareholders, the capacity will be increased to 25%, including the 10% Placement Facility),
effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without
Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue of any Equity Securities
under the Plan.
Any future issues of Equity Securities under the Plan to a related party or a person whose
relationship with the Company is, in ASX's opinion, such that approval should be obtained will
require additional Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.14 at the relevant time.
3.3 Rationale for the Equity Incentive Plan
The aim of the Plan is to allow the Board to attract, motivate and retain eligible persons, who
in the Board's opinion, are dedicated and will provide ongoing commitment and effort to
Southern Palladium. It is considered that the Plan and the future issue of Equity Securities
under the Plan will provide participants with the opportunity to participate in the anticipated
future growth of the Company.
This is considered essential as the Company transitions from the exploration and study phase
towards development and construction of a mining operation, and the consequent need to build
a comprehensive, skilled management team.
3.4 Specific information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.2
In accordance with the requirements of ASX Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b) the following
information is provided:
(a) The material terms of the Plan are summarised in Schedule 1.
(b) This is the first approval sought under ASX Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b) with respect
to the Plan. Accordingly, no Equity Securities have previously been issued under the
Plan as it is a new incentive plan.
(c) The maximum number of Equity Securities proposed to be issued under the Plan is
5,347,500 Equity Securities, representing 5.0% of the number of ordinary Shares
expected to be on issue at the date of this Notice of Meeting (being 106,950,000 Shares)
(Approved Plan Cap). To the extent that Equity Securities that are issued under the
Approved Plan Cap are subsequently cancelled in the three year period following the
Meeting, those cancelled Equity Securities will be added back to the Approved Plan Cap.
The Approved Plan Cap is not intended to be a prediction of the actual number of Equity
Securities to be issued under the Plan during the period for which the approval (if given)
will be valid, rather it is simply a ceiling for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.2
(Exception 13(b)).
(d) A voting exclusion statement has been included for the purposes of Resolution 3.
3.5 Recommendation
Resolution 3 is an ordinary resolution.
The Directors abstain, in the interests of good corporate governance, from making a
recommendation in relation to Resolution 3.
The Chair intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 3.
4. RESOLUTIONS 4 to 9 – Proposed Grant of Equity Securities to Directors
4.1 Background
Following a review and recommendations made by an independent third party remuneration
consultant, which included the identification of and the ascertainment of relevant remuneration
details from peer group companies, the Remuneration Committee identified that both the
Executive and Non-Executive Directors of the Company are currently remunerated at the
bottom end of the range applicable to peer group companies that are entering the development
phase.
It is now proposed that Executive Directors be issued Performance Rights with milestone and
service vesting requirements as detailed below. The Performance Rights will be in addition to
their fixed cash remuneration.
It is also proposed that the Non-Executive Directors be issued service rights in the form of Zero
Exercise Price Options (ZEPOs) in lieu of a portion of their fixed Directors' fees. The ZEPOs
vest with time served as a Director of the Company and are not based on any performance
measure.
These Employee Incentives to be issued under the Equity Incentive Plan are designed to
incentivise Directors specifically to transition the Company from its current state to
commencement of mine construction, thereby ensuring alignment with Shareholders' interests
to maximise Company value. The Employee Incentives will form part of each Director's
remuneration.
If Resolutions 4 to 9 are passed, the Company will be able to issue Employee Incentives to the
relevant Directors as contemplated by Resolutions 4 to 9.
If any of Resolutions 4 to 9 are not passed, the Company will be unable to issue Employee
Incentives to the relevant Director(s) as contemplated by the applicable Resolution(s).
Resolutions 4 to 9 are proposed as ordinary resolutions.
4.2 Purpose of resolution
Resolutions 4 to 9 seek Shareholder approval for the purpose of satisfying ASX Listing Rule
10.14 to allow the issue of Employee Incentives to the Company's Executive and Non-Directors
being Mr Roger Baxter (or his nominee), Mr Johan Odendaal (or his nominee), Mr Mike
Stirzaker (or his nominee), Mr Robert Thomson (or his nominee), Mr Daniel van Heerden (or
his nominee) and Ms Lindi Nkosi-Thomas (or her nominee) under the Plan on the terms and
conditions set out in Schedule 1. The Plan is subject to Shareholder approval at Resolution 3.
Under the Plan, each Director will be eligible to receive a grant of Employee Incentives
representing incentives for the forthcoming two years, in the case of Executive Directors,
Messrs Baxter and Odendaal, and the forthcoming three years, in the case of each of the
following Non-Executive Directors:
(a) Up to 275,229 Performance Rights for Mr Roger Baxter (Resolution 4);
(b) Up to 302,752 Performance Rights for Mr Johan Odendaal (Resolution 5);
(c) Up to 96,330 Zero Exercise Price Options for Mr Mike Stirzaker (Resolution 6);
(d) Up to 96,330 Zero Exercise Price Options for Mr Robert Thomson (Resolution 7);
(e) Up to 96,330 Zero Exercise Price Options for Mr Daniel van Heerden (Resolution 8);
and
(f) Up to 96,330 Zero Exercise Price Options for Ms Lindi Nkosi-Thomas (Resolution 9).
The terms of the Employee Incentives are set out in section 4.3 below.
4.3 Key terms of Employee Incentives
Each Employee Incentive will entitle the holder to 1 Share upon satisfaction of certain vesting
conditions.
The Employee Incentives are otherwise to be granted on the terms of the Plan as summarised
at Schedule 1.
Key Terms of the Performance Rights for the Executive Directors are summarised in Schedule
2.
Key Terms of the Zero Exercise Price Options for Non-Executive Directors are summarised in
Schedule 3.
4.4 Overview of regulatory approval requirements
(a) ASX Listing Rules requirements – ASX Listing Rule 10.14
ASX Listing Rule 10.14 requires Shareholder approval to be obtained where a company issues
or agrees to issue, securities under an employee incentive scheme to a director of the
company, an Associate of the director, or a person whose relationship with the company,
director or Associate of the director is, in the ASX's opinion, such that approval should be
obtained.
As such, Shareholder approval is sought under ASX Listing Rule 10.14 for the issue of
Performance Rights to Mr Roger Baxter (or his nominee) and Mr Johan Odendaal (or his
nominee) and Zero Exercise Price Options to Mr Mike Stirzaker (or his nominee), Mr Robert
Thomson (or his nominee), Mr Daniel van Heerden (or his nominee) and Ms Lindi Nkosi-
Thomas (or her nominee).
ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 14) provides that, if an issue of securities is approved for the
purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.14, ASX Listing Rule 7.1 does not apply. Accordingly, the
Company is not required to seek approval of the issue of the Performance Rights under ASX
Listing Rule 7.1.
(b) Corporations Act requirements – Chapter 2E
Under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, for a public company to give a financial benefit to
a related party of the public company, the public company must:
• obtain the approval of the public company's members in the manner set out in sections
217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and
• give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,
unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216
of the Corporations Act.
The issue of Performance Rights constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mr Roger Baxter,
Mr Johan Odendaal, Mr Mike Stirzaker, Mr Robert Thomson, Mr Daniel van Heerden and Ms
Lindi Nkosi-Thomas are related parties of the Company as they are Directors of the Company.
It is the view of the Board that the exception set out in section 211(1) (allowing the giving of a
financial benefit that is reasonable remuneration) applies in the current circumstances.
Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought for the issue of the Options under ASX Listing
Rule 10.14 as contemplated by Resolutions 4 to 9, but not under Chapter 2E of the
Corporations Act.
(c) Corporations Act requirements – Sections 200B and 200E of the Corporations Act
The Corporations Act restricts the benefits that can be given to persons who hold a "managerial
or executive office" (as defined in the Corporations Act) on leaving their employment with the
Company.
Under sections 200B and 200E of the Corporations Act, a company may only give a person a
benefit in connection with them ceasing to hold a managerial or executive office if the benefit
is approved by Shareholders or an exemption applies.
Amendments to the Corporations Act in 2009 significantly expanded the scope of these
provisions and lowered the threshold for termination benefits that do not require Shareholder
approval. The term "benefit" has a wide meaning and may include benefits resulting from the
Board exercising certain discretions under the rules of the Plan, including the discretion to
waive or accelerate vesting conditions in respect of a particular holder of Performance Rights.
While the Plan provides that all vested Performance Rights or Zero Exercise Price Options are
automatically forfeited and lapse on the date of cessation of employment or office, provided
the participant is a "Good Leaver" as defined in the Plan, the Board retains the discretion to
determine otherwise. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought for the Directors to be given
any benefit at the discretion of the Board in relation to the accelerated vesting of Performance
Rights upon their retirement from office with the Company if that occurs within 3 years of the
date of this Annual General Meeting.
If Shareholder approval is given under Resolutions 4 to 9 the Company will still be required to
comply with ASX Listing Rules 10.18 and 10.19, which place restrictions on the circumstances
in which termination benefits can be paid and a cap on the value of termination benefits that
can be paid to officers of the Company.
The value of the benefit cannot be determined at the date of this Notice of Annual General
Meeting and will depend on the number of Performance Rights that may vest and the market
value of the Shares at the time of cessation of office.

5. RESOLUTION 10 – Ratification of issue of Placement Shares under the Placement
5.1 Overview of the Capital Raise
On 12 June 2025, the Company announced a capital raise of $8 million (the Capital Raise).
The Capital Raise was made to one of the Company's largest Shareholders, existing
institutional Shareholders and also attracted new institutional investors utilising the Company's
placement capacity under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.
16 million Shares were issued under the Capital Raise representing approximately 17.6% of
the Company's Shares on issue at the time that the Capital Raise was announced. Bridge
Street Capital Partners Pty Ltd acted as Lead Manager to the Placement.
The Shares issued under the Placement were priced at $0.50 each (Offer Price) being the
closing price on Friday 6 June 2025. The Offer Price represented a 10.5% premium to the 10-
day VWAP of A$0.45 per share, and a 46.5% premium to the 15-day VWAP of A$0.34 per
share. No options were offered in connection with the Placement.
The Placement funds will be deployed towards advancing the DFS and near-term mine
development activities at the Bengwenyama PGM project, ahead of the planned release of an
updated PFS incorporating a two-stage project development approach with lower up-front
capital costs.
5.2 ASX Listing Rules 7.1, 7.1A and 7.4
Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, ASX Listing Rule 7.1 limits the
amount of Equity Securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its
Shareholders over any 12-month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on
issue at the start of that period.
Under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A, an eligible entity can seek approval from its members by way of
a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this 15% limit by an extra
10% to 25% for the 12 months following that meeting. The Company obtained approval under
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A to increase its 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25% at its most recent
Annual General Meeting on 28 November 2024 (the 10% Placement Facility).
On Thursday,19 June 2025 the Company issued:
• 13,642,500 Placement Shares utilising its capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1; and
• 2,357,500 Placement Shares utilising its capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.
The issue of the Placement Shares does not fit within any of the exceptions and, as it has not
yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up the 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule
7.1 and part of the 10% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A, reducing the Company's capacity to
issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 for
the 12 month period following the date of the issue and under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.
The issue of the Placement Shares did not breach ASX Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.1A.
ASX Listing Rule 7.4 allows the Shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity
securities after it has been made or agreed to be made where the issue did not breach ASX
Listing Rule 7.1 and as applicable, Listing Rule 7.1A. If they do, the issue is taken to have
been approved under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the Company's capacity
to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under that rule or ASX Listing
Rule 7.1A.
The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity
Securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under
ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
To this end, Resolution 10 seeks Shareholder approval of the issue of 16,000,000 Placement
Shares that the Company issued under the Placement utilising its capacity under ASX Listing
Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, under and for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.4.
If Resolution 10 is passed, the issue of the relevant Placement Shares will be excluded in
calculating the Company's 15% limit in ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A (as extended to 25%
under the 10% Placement Facility, if Resolution 11 is approved), effectively increasing the
number of Equity Securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month
period following the date of the issue.
If Resolution 10 is not passed, the issue of the Placement Shares will be included in calculating
the Company's 15% limit in ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A (as may be extended to 25%
under the 10% Placement Facility), effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities it
can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of the
issue.
5.4 Information for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.5
For the purpose of Resolution 10, the following information is provided in relation to the issue
of the Shares under the Placement in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5:

6. RESOLUTION 11 – Approval of Additional 10% Placement Facility
6.1 Background
The Company is seeking Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to have the
ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility to provide the Company
with additional flexibility to issue Equity Securities in appropriate circumstances. The exact
number of Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Facility will be determined
in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (described further below).
6.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1A
ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A are described at Section 5.2 above.
Resolution 11 seeks Shareholder approval by way of special resolution for the Company to
have the 10% Placement Facility.
If Resolution 11 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities up to the
combined 25% limit in ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without any further Shareholder
approval.
If Resolution 11 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the additional 10%
capacity to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval provided for in ASX Listing
Rule 7.1A and will remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing Equity Securities without
Shareholder approval set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
6.3 Further requirements of ASX Listing Rule 7.1A
10% Placement Period
Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A is valid from
the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained and expires on the
first to occur of the following:
• the date that is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which the
approval is obtained (which, in the case of Resolution 11 will be 28 November 2026);
• the time and date of the Company's 2026 annual general meeting; or
• the date of the approval by holders of ordinary securities of a transaction under ASX
Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2
(disposal of main undertaking),
("10% Placement Period").
Class of Equity Securities issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A
Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility must be in the same class as
an existing quoted class of Equity Securities of the Company. The Company currently has
only one class of quoted Equity Securities on issue being Shares (ASX Code: SPD).
Issue price of Equity Securities issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.3
The issue price of Equity Securities issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A must be not less than
75% of the VWAP of Equity Securities in the same class calculated over the 15 Trading Days
immediately before:
• the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed by
the entity and the recipient of the securities; or
• if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 Trading Days of the date in the
paragraph above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued,
(the "Minimum Price").
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A4
The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.4 when
it issues Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.
Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility
As at 8 October 2025, the Company had 106,950,000 Shares on issue ("A" in the formula
below) and therefore, subject to Shareholder approval being obtained under Resolution 11,
based on current circumstances 10,695,000 Shares will be permitted to be issued in
accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. The number of Shares that may be issued is
calculated in accordance with the following formula:
(A x D) – E
A is the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of 12
months immediately preceding the date of issue or agreement to issue (the
relevant period):
• plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period
under an exception in rule 7.2 other than exception 9, 16 or 17;
• plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period
on the conversion of convertible securities within rule 7.2 exception 9 where:
• the convertible securities were issued or agreed to be issued before
the commencement of the relevant period; or
• the issue of, or agreement to issue, the convertible securities was
approved, or taken under these rules to have been approved, under
rule 7.1 or rule 7.4;
• plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period
under an agreement to issue securities within rule 7.2 exception 16 where:
• the agreement was entered into before the commencement of the
relevant period; or
• the agreement or issue was approved, or taken under these rules to
have been approved, under rule 7.1 or rule 7.4;
• plus the number of any other fully paid ordinary securities issued in the
relevant period with approval under rule 7.1 or rule 7.4. This does not include
an issue of fully paid shares under the entity's 15% placement capacity
without Shareholder approval;
• plus the number of partly paid ordinary securities that became fully paid in
the relevant period; and
• less the number of fully paid ordinary securities cancelled in the relevant
period.
Note that 'A' has the same meaning in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating an entity's
15% placement capacity.
D is 10%
E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under ASX Listing
Rule 7.1A.2 in the relevant period where the issue or agreement has not been
subsequently approved by the holders of its ordinary securities under ASX Listing
Rule 7.4;
Shareholders should note that the calculation of the number of Equity Securities permitted to
be issued under the 10% Placement Facility is a moving calculation and will be based on the
formula set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 at the time of issue of the Equity Securities.
6.4 Specific information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.3A
Pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.3A, the following information is provided in relation to
Resolution 11.

The table also shows:
• two examples where variable "A" has increased, by 50% and 100%.
Variable "A" is based on the number of Shares the Company has on
issue as at the date of this Notice of Meeting. The number of Shares
on issue may increase as a result of issues of ordinary securities that
do not require Shareholder approval, for example, a pro rata
entitlement offer or future specific placements under ASX Listing Rule
7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders' meeting; and
• two examples of where the issue price of Shares has decreased by
50% and increased by 100% as against the Issue Price.
The table above has been prepared on the following additional assumptions:
• the Company issues the maximum number of Shares available under
the 10% Placement Facility; and
• the table shows only the effect of issues of Shares under ASX Listing
Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing
Rule 7.1.

6.5 Recommendation
Resolution 11 is a special resolution, requiring approval of 75% of the votes cast by
Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a
corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative) in order to be passed.
The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 11.
7. RESOLUTION 12 - Approve a Change of Name to Southern Platinum Limited
7.1 Rationale for Change of Name
Section 157(1) of the Corporations Act provides that a company may change its name if the company
passes a special resolution adopting a new name.
Resolution 12 seeks the approval of Shareholders to change the Company name to Southern
Platinum Limited to better reflect the Company's strategic focus on platinum group metals and more
accurately reflect the diversified metals within our portfolio.
The Board believes that the new name will more clearly communicate the diversity of the metal
resources within our project portfolio beyond the unintended pure focus on palladium, which the
current name suggests. Notwithstanding that the new name refers only to "platinum", it is widely
understood that the new name would not suggest a pure focus only on platinum, but would include
all PGMs (platinum group metals). It also believes that the name change will facilitate improved
understanding by the market of the Company's strategy, business and value creation.
If Resolution 12 is passed, the change of name will take effect under the Corporations Act when the
Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) alters the details of the Company's
registration.
The Board believes that changing the name to Southern Platinum Limited will more clearly identify
the Company as the developer of the highly prospective Platinum Group Metal Bengwenyama
Project located in the world class Bushveld Complex in South Africa.
Once in effect, it is proposed that the Company's ASX listing code will remain unchanged as 'SPD'.
For JSE purposes, the Southern Platinum Limited will remain in the same sector with the same JSE
alpha code 'SDL' and the same ISIN AU0000220808. Historical financial and trading history will also
remain unchanged. Also for JSE systems the long name will be recorded as Southern Platinum Ltd
and the short name will be recorded as SOUTH PLT.
7.2 Recommendation
Resolution 12 is a special resolution, requiring approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders
present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate
Shareholder, by a corporate representative) in order to be passed.
The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 12.
8. RESOLUTION 13 - Approval of Conditional Placement
8.1 Overview of the Conditional Placement
On 20 October 2025 the Company announced that it had secured firm commitments to raise A$20
million through the issue of 18,181,819 million new fully paid ordinary shares in a two-tranche
placement at an issue price of A$1.10 per share (October 2025 Capital Raise).
The October 2025 Capital Raise is being conducted in two tranches. The first tranche of 6,600,004
shares was made under the Company's existing placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule
7.1A. The second tranche of 11,581,815 shares is subject to shareholder approval under ASX Listing
Rule 7.1 at the Company's Annual General Meeting (Conditional Placement).
The operation of Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A are described at section 5.2 above.
Resolution 13 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 to permit the
Company to issue 11,581,815 Conditional Placement Shares to sophisticated and professional
investors under the Conditional Placement. This is because the Company did not have the requisite
capacity under Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.1A to issue the Conditional Placement Shares at the time that
it agreed to do so.
Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 17 provides that Listing Rule 7.1 does not apply to an agreement to issue
equity securities that is conditional on the holders of the entity's ordinary securities approving the
issue under Listing Rule 7.1 before the issue is made.
If Resolution 13 is passed, the Company will be able to issue the 11,581,815 Conditional Placement
Shares to participants in the Conditional Placement, thereby raising $12,739,996.50 of proceeds
(before costs).
If Resolution 13 is not passed, the Company will be unable to issue the 11,581,815 Conditional
Placement Shares to participants in the Conditional Placement and the Conditional Placement will
not complete (meaning that the Company will not raise any proceeds from the Conditional
Placement).
For shareholders to approve an issue or agreement to issue equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1,
the notice of meeting must include the matters set out in Listing Rule 7.3.
8.2 Information for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.3
