EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
This Explanatory Memorandum is intended to provide
shareholders with sufficient information to assess the merits
of the Resolutions contained in the accompanying Notice of
AGM ("Notice") of Mincor Resources NL ("Company").
The Directors recommend shareholders read this Explanatory
Memorandum in full before making any decision in relation to
the Resolutions.
Certain terms and abbreviations used in this Explanatory
Memorandum have defined meanings which are explained in the
Glossary appearing at the end of this Explanatory
Memorandum.
The following information should be noted in respect of the
various matters contained in the accompanying Notice:
1. ANNUAL ACCOUNTS
The Corporations Act requires shareholders to receive and
consider the annual financial statements of the Company for
the financial year ended 30 June 2012 together with the
Directors' Report, the Directors' Declaration and the
Independent Auditor's Report. A copy of these reports may be
accessed by visiting the Company's website
www.mincor.com.au.
There is no requirement for shareholders to approve these
reports. However, the Company will provide a reasonable
opportunity for shareholders to ask questions or make
comments about the annual financial statements and the
management of the Company. Shareholders will also be given a
reasonable opportunity to ask the Auditor questions 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.
2. RESOLUTION 1 - Resolution to adopt Remuneration Report
Section 298 of the Corporations Act requires that the annual
Directors' Report contain a
Remuneration Report prepared in accordance with section 300A
of the Corporations Act.
Pursuant to Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act, a
resolution adopting the Remuneration
Report contained within the Directors' Report must be put to
the vote.
The Remuneration Report is set out within the Directors'
Report. The Report:
• explains the Board's policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration of executive Directors and senior executives of the Company;
• explains the relationship between the Board's remuneration policy and the Company's performance;
• sets out remuneration details for each Director and the most highly remunerated senior executives of the Company; and
• details and explains any performance conditions applicable to the remuneration of executive Directors and senior executives of the Company.
Page 3
A reasonable opportunity will be provided for discussion of
the Remuneration Report at the meeting.
Shareholders are advised that pursuant to Section 250R(3) of
the Corporations Act, this resolution is advisory only and
does not bind the Directors or the Company.
However, under changes to the Corporations Act which came
into effect on 1 July 2011, if at least 25% of the votes cast
are against adoption of the Remuneration Report at an AGM,
and then again at the following AGM (Following AGM), the
Company will be required to put a resolution to the Following
AGM, to approve calling an extraordinary general meeting
(spill resolution). If more than 50% of Shareholders vote in
favour of the spill resolution, the Company must convene an
extraordinary general meeting (spill meeting) within 90 days
of the Following AGM. All of the Directors who were in office
when the Directors' Report (as included in the Company's
annual financial report for the financial year ended
immediately before the Following AGM) was approved, other
than the Managing Director, will cease to hold office
immediately before the end of the spill meeting and will (if
desired) need to stand for re-election at the spill
meeting.
It is noted that at the Company's 2011 AGM the votes cast
against the Remuneration Report was less than 25% and
accordingly, a spill resolution is not required for this
AGM.
Note that the Directors and other Restricted Voters may not
vote on this Resolution and may not cast a vote as proxy,
unless the appointment gives a direction on how to vote.
Shareholders are urged to carefully read the proxy form and
provide a direction to the proxy on how to vote on this
Resolution.
The Board unanimously recommends that shareholders vote in
favour of adopting the
Remuneration Report.
3. RESOLUTION 2 - Re-election of Ian Fred Burston as a
Director
Rule 15.2 of the Company's Constitution provides that at
every annual general meeting of the Company one-third of the
Directors (other than alternate Directors and the Managing
Director) shall retire from office. The Directors to retire
at an annual general meeting are those who have been longest
in office since their last election. A retiring Director is
eligible for re- election.
Accordingly, pursuant to Rule 15.2 of the Company's
Constitution, Ian Fred Burston, being a Director, retires by
way of rotation and, being eligible, offers himself for
re-election as a Director.
Mr Burston is a Non-executive Director who joined the Company
in January 2003. He holds a Bachelor of Engineering (Mech)
degree from Melbourne University and a diploma in
Aeronautical Engineering from Royal Melbourne Institute of
Technology. He has completed the Insead Management Program in
Paris and the Harvard Advanced Management Program in Boston.
Mr Burston has over 30 years' experience in the extractive
and related industries.
