• provides satisfactory evidence of the appointment of its corporate representative prior to commencement of the Meeting.

If such evidence is not received before the Meeting, then the body corporate (through its representative) will not be permitted to act as a proxy.

If you are entitled to cast 2 or more votes, you may appoint 2 proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If no proportion or number is specified, each proxy will exercise half of your votes.

For an appointment of a proxy to be effective for the Meeting, the proxy's appointment, and any authority under which the Proxy Form is signed or otherwise authenticated, must be received by St Barbara's share registry by no later than 11:00 am on 26 October 2020 (Melbourne time).

Voting Exclusion Statement

Resolution 1: Adoption of the Remuneration Report

The Remuneration Report identifies the Company's Key Management Personnel for the financial year to 30 June 2020 and details the remuneration to be paid to them.

Under the Corporations Act, Key Management Personnel (including Directors) of the Company, and their closely related parties (as defined in the Corporations Act), (each a Restricted Person), are prohibited from voting on Resolution 1 in any capacity (e.g.: as a Shareholder, proxy, attorney or corporate representative).

However, the prohibition does not apply if:

• the Restricted Person is appointed as a proxy for a Shareholder entitled to vote and the proxy appointment specifies the way the Restricted Person is to vote on the resolution; or
• the Chairman has been appointed as a proxy for a Shareholder entitled to vote and the proxy appointment:odoes not specify the way the Chairman is to vote on
  the resolution; and
  oexpressly authorises the Chairman to exercise the proxy (notwithstanding that Resolution 1 is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of Key Management Personnel).

The Chairman intends to vote undirected proxies (where the Chairman has been appropriately authorised) in favour of Resolution 1.

Other Directors and other Key Management Personnel of the Company and their closely related parties must not cast any votes in respect of Resolution 1 that arise from any undirected proxy that they hold.

Resolutions 3 and 4: Approval of issue of FY20 and FY21 performance rights to Mr Craig Jetson

In accordance with the ASX Listing Rules (and having regard to the voting restrictions in section 200E(2A) of the Corporations Act as it applies to Resolutions 3 and 4), the Company will disregard any votes cast in favour of Resolutions 3 and 4 by Mr Jetson and his associates. In addition, any vote cast as proxy by members of the Key Management Personnel, or their closely related parties will also be disregarded.

However, the Company will not disregard the vote as a result of these restrictions if it is cast:

• as proxy or attorney for a person (not being Mr Jetson or any of his associates) entitled to vote, in accordance with the directions given to the proxy or attorney to vote on the resolution in that way; or
• by the Chairman as proxy or attorney for a person (not being Mr Jetson or any of his associates) entitled to vote, in accordance with a direction given to the Chairman to vote as the Chairman decides, even though the resolution is connected with the remuneration of a member of the Key Management Personnel; or
• by a Shareholder acting solely in a nominee, trustee, custodial or other fiduciary capacity on behalf of a beneficiary provided the beneficiary provides written confirmation to the holder that the beneficiary is not excluded from voting, and is not an associate of a person excluded from voting on the resolution, and the holder votes in accordance with the beneficiary's directions.

Further, under the Corporations Act, the Company's Key Management Personnel and their closely related parties are prohibited from voting on resolutions connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of Key Management Personnel (such as Resolutions 3 and 4) as a proxy for a Shareholder entitled to vote where the proxy appointment does not specify the way the proxy is to vote on the resolution.

However, this Corporations Act prohibition does not apply to the Chairman, if the Chairman has been appointed as the proxy and the proxy appointment expressly authorises the Chairman to exercise an undirected proxy. The Chairman intends to vote undirected proxies (where the Chairman has been appropriately authorised) in favour of Resolutions 3 and 4.

3. Resolution 3: Approval of issue of FY20 performance rights to Mr Craig Jetson, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer

Introduction

The Board has resolved, subject to Shareholder approval, to issue Mr Jetson, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, performance rights pursuant to the Rights Plan to acquire Shares in the capital of the Company, in the quantum and on the terms which are set out below. These performance rights represent the long-term incentive (LTI) component of Mr Jetson's total remuneration in respect of the 2020 financial year.

• The number of performance rights to be issued in respect of the 2020 financial year (FY20 Performance Rights) is 107,388.
• The number of FY20 Performance Rights was determined on the basis of the 10 day volume weighted average price (VWAP) of Shares up to and including 30 June 2019, which was $2.91 per share.
• The issue of the FY20 Performance Rights is subject to the terms of the Rights Plan approved by the Board on 22 September 2015, the material details of which are summarised in this document.
• No cash consideration is payable for the issue, or on vesting or exercise of the FY20 Performance Rights.
• The FY20 Performance Rights will vest subject to prescribed service and performance conditions being met. The number of FY20 Performance Rights that vest

will be subject to the Company's relative performance for each of the performance conditions.

1. The service condition requires continuous employment, in this instance from commencement on 3 February 2020 to 30 June 2022. The Board has discretion in circumstances of death, disability or bona fide redundancy to vary the service condition and reduce the number of performance rights proportionately for a period of service of less than three years.
2. The performance conditions comprise the following:
3. 1. a condition based on Relative Total Shareholder Return; and
   2. a condition based on the Return On Capital Employed by the Company,

each of which is calculated over the three year period commencing 1 July 2019 and ending on 30 June 2022 and is described in more detail in the Schedule of the 2019 Notice of Annual General Meeting released on the ASX on 13 September 2019.

• Subject to the satisfaction of the service and performance conditions and the rules of the Rights Plan, Mr Jetson will receive one Share for each FY20 Performance Right that vests. Any FY20 Performance Rights which do not vest will lapse.
• The FY20 Performance Rights will not be listed on the ASX and will not be transferable, except as permitted under the Rights Plan.
• In the event of a Change of Control of the Company, the Rights Plan provides that the Board may, in its absolute discretion, determine that all or a specified number of FY20 Performance Rights vest, having regard to whetherpro-rata performance is consistent with the performance conditions applicable to those FY20 Performance Rights over the period from the date of grant to the date of the Change of Control.
• The Board has absolute discretion to reduce, withhold or cancel all tranches of unvested LTI rights in relation to overpaid incentive remuneration, fraud, defalcation or gross misconduct, or a material misstatement in the Group's financial statements.
• Further, the Rights Plan also provides for the recovery of damages from vested performance rights in circumstances of fraud, defalcation or gross misconduct.

Shareholder approval

Shareholder approval for the issue of the FY20 Performance Rights to Mr Jetson is sought for all purposes under the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, including in particular, ASX Listing Rule 10.14, and sections 200B and 200E of the Corporations Act.

Under ASX Listing Rule 10.14.1, the acquisition of securities by a director under an employee incentive scheme requires Shareholder approval. Shareholder approval is therefore sought for the acquisition by Mr Jetson of the FY20 Performance Rights and Shares should the FY20 Performance Rights subsequently vest. As Shareholder approval is sought under ASX Listing Rule 10.14, approval

page 6

under ASX Listing 7.1 is not required, in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 14.

If approval is given under ASX Listing Rule 10.14, the grant of the rights will not use up the Company's capacity to issue equity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. If approval is not provided, then the Board will have regard to developing alternative remuneration non-equity arrangements for Mr Jetson to provide him with an appropriate long term incentive / compensation equivalent in value to the LTI grant Mr Jetson would have received had Shareholder approval been granted.

Under section 200B of the Corporations Act, a company may only give a person a benefit in connection with their ceasing to hold a managerial or executive office in the company or a related body corporate if it is approved by Shareholders in accordance with section 200E or an exemption applies. Section 200B of the Corporations Act applies to managerial or executive officers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, which includes Mr Jetson. The term 'benefit' has a wide operation and, in effect, includes the automatic or accelerated vesting of the FY20 Performance Rights under the rules of the Rights Plan.

It is proposed, therefore, that this resolution will also approve, under section 200E of the Corporations Act, any 'termination benefit' that may be provided to Mr Jetson under the Rights Plan in relation to the FY20 Performance Rights to be granted to him, in addition to any other termination benefits that may be provided to Mr Jetson under the Corporations Act. The termination benefit that may be given under the Rights Plan is the early vesting of the FY20 Performance Rights (and the receipt of Shares upon exercise of the FY20 Performance Rights) if Mr Jetson ceases employment with the Company due to death, disability, bona fide redundancy or other reason with the approval of the Board.

The value of such benefits cannot presently be ascertained but matters, events and circumstances that will, or are likely to, affect the calculation of that value include:

1. the number of performance rights held by Mr Jetson prior to cessation of employment;
2. the number of performance rights that vest (which could be all of the performance rights held by Mr Jetson). The Board's decision as to the number of performance rights that vest will depend on, among other things, the circumstances of Mr Jetson's cessation of employment (for example, whether due to death, disability, redundancy or other reasons approved by the Board), the Board's assessment of Mr Jetson's performance in the period up to cessation of employment, the degree to which the performance conditions have been met at the relevant time, and the duration of Mr Jetson's employment; and
3. the market price of Shares on ASX on the last ten ASX trading days up to and including the date of calculation.

The number of performance rights that could vest upon Mr Jetson ceasing employment, where the Board determines to permit performance rights to vest, will not exceed the maximum number of performance rights held by Mr Jetson.

Disclosures made for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.15:

In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.15, the Company notes that:

• Mr Jetson is a Director of the Company and therefore falls within ASX Listing Rule 10.14.1;
• the maximum number of securities that can be awarded to Mr Jetson if this resolution is approved is 107,388 FY20 Performance Rights, entitling Mr Jetson to a maximum of 107,388 Shares if all FY20 Performance Rights subsequently vest;
• the price payable on the issue, vesting or exercise of each FY20 Performance Rights is nil;
• Mr Jetson is the only Director entitled to participate in the Rights Plan because he is the only Executive Director and the Company has not declared any Non- Executive Director as being eligible to participate in the Rights Plan;
• details of the remuneration framework applying to Mr Jetson and his current remuneration are:

Total Fixed	$1,000,000
Remuneration including
superannuation (TFR)
Short-term incentive	50% of TFR at target,
(pro rata)	100% of TFR at
	maximum
Long-term incentive	75% of TFR on a face
(pro rata)	value basis

• Shareholders are referred to the Remuneration Report for the year ended 30 June 2020 as set out on pages20 to 43(inclusive) of the Annual Report, which has been lodged with the ASX and is accessible at www.stbarbara.com.au/AGM for full details of Mr Jetson's remuneration;
• there have not been any grants made to Mr Jetson under the Rights Plan since it was introduced in 2015;
• there is no loan proposed in relation to the proposed award of the FY20 Performance Rights to Mr Jetson; and
• Mr Jetson's FY20 Performance Rights are intended to be issued by 31 December 2020 and in any event will not be issued later than 3 years after the date of the Meeting; and
• details of any securities issued under the LTI Rights Plan will be published in the relevant Annual Report, along with a statement that approval for the issue was obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.14. Any additional persons covered by ASX Listing Rule 10.14 who become entitled to participate in the LTI Rights Plan after this resolution is approved will not participate under approval is obtained at a future meeting.

Board recommendation

The Board, with Mr Jetson abstaining, considers that the proposed grant of performance rights is appropriate and in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders. The grant strengthens the alignment of Mr Jetson's interests with Shareholders and provides an incentive linked to continued growth of the Company's earnings and share price over the period to 30 June 2022. On this basis, the Board unanimously recommends the approval of the issue of the performance rights and of the related termination benefits to Mr Jetson and, accordingly, that Shareholders vote in favour of this resolution.

4. Resolution 4: Approval of issue of FY21 performance rights to Mr Craig Jetson, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer

Introduction

The Board has resolved, subject to Shareholder approval, to issue Mr Jetson, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, performance rights pursuant to the Rights Plan to acquire Shares in the capital of the Company, in the quantum and on the terms which are set out below. These performance rights represent the LTI component of Mr Jetson's total remuneration in respect of the 2021 financial year.

• The number of performance rights to be issued in respect of the 2021 financial year (FY21 Performance Rights) is 238,095.
• The number of FY21 Performance Rights was determined on the basis of the 10 day VWAP of Shares up to and including 30 June 2020, which was $3.15 per share.
• The issue of the FY21 Performance Rights is subject to the terms of the Rights Plan approved by the Board on
• 1. September 2015, the material details of which are summarised in this document.
• No cash consideration is payable for the issue, or on vesting or exercise of the FY21 Performance Rights.
• The FY21 Performance Rights will vest subject to prescribed service and performance conditions being met. The number of FY21 Performance Rights that vest will be subject to the Company's relative performance for each of the performance conditions.
• 1. The service condition requires continuous employment for a three year period commencing on 1 July 2020. The Board has discretion in circumstances of death, disability or bona fide redundancy to vary the service condition and reduce the number of performance rights proportionately for a period of service of less than three years.
  2. The performance conditions comprise the following:
  3. 1. a condition based on Relative Total Shareholder Return; and
     2. a condition based on the Return On Capital Employed by the Company,

each of which is calculated over the three year period commencing 1 July 2020 and ending on

30 June 2023 and is described in more detail in the attached Schedule.

• Subject to the satisfaction of the service and performance conditions and the rules of the Rights Plan, Mr Jetson will receive one Share for each FY21 Performance Right that vests. Any FY21 Performance Rights which do not vest will lapse.
• The FY21 Performance Rights will not be listed on the ASX and will not be transferable, except as permitted under the Rights Plan.
• In the event of a Change of Control of the Company, the Rights Plan provides that the Board may, in its absolute discretion, determine that all or a specified number of FY21 Performance Rights vest, having regard to whetherpro-rata performance is consistent with the performance conditions applicable to those FY21 Performance Rights over the period from the date of grant to the date of the Change of Control.
• The Board has absolute discretion to reduce, withhold or cancel all tranches of unvested LTI rights in relation to overpaid incentive remuneration, fraud, defalcation or gross misconduct, or a material misstatement in the Group's financial statements.
• Further, the Rights Plan also provides for the recovery of damages from vested performance rights in circumstances of fraud, defalcation or gross misconduct.

Shareholder approval

Shareholder approval for the issue of the FY21 Performance Rights to Mr Jetson is sought for all purposes under the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, including in particular, ASX Listing Rule 10.14, and sections 200B and 200E of the Corporations Act.

Under ASX Listing Rule 10.14.1, the acquisition of securities by a director under an employee incentive scheme generally requires Shareholder approval. Shareholder approval is therefore sought for the acquisition by Mr Jetson of the FY21 Performance Rights and Shares should the FY21 Performance Rights subsequently vest. As Shareholder approval is sought under ASX Listing Rule 10.14, approval under ASX Listing 7.1 is not required, in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 14.

If approval is given under ASX Listing Rule 10.14, the grant of the rights will not use up the Company's capacity to issue equity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. If approval is not provided, then the Board will have regard to developing alternative remuneration non-equity arrangements for Mr Jetson to provide him with an appropriate long term incentive / compensation equivalent in value to the LTI grant Mr Jetson would have received had Shareholder approval been granted.

Under section 200B of the Corporations Act, a company may only give a person a benefit in connection with their ceasing to hold a managerial or executive office in the company or a related body corporate if it is approved by Shareholders in accordance with section 200E or an exemption applies. Section 200B of the Corporations Act applies to managerial or executive officers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, which includes Mr Jetson. The term 'benefit' has a wide operation and, in effect, includes

page 8

the automatic or accelerated vesting of the FY21 Performance Rights under the rules of the Rights Plan.

It is proposed, therefore, that this resolution will also approve, under section 200E of the Corporations Act, any 'termination benefit' that may be provided to Mr Jetson under the Rights Plan in relation to the FY21 Performance Rights to be granted to him, in addition to any other termination benefits that may be provided to Mr Jetson under the Corporations Act. The termination benefit that may be given under the Rights Plan is the early vesting of the FY21 Performance Rights (and the receipt of Shares upon exercise of the FY21 Performance Rights) if Mr Jetson ceases employment with the Company due to death, disability, bona fide redundancy or other reason with the approval of the Board.

The value of such benefits cannot presently be ascertained but matters, events and circumstances that will, or are likely to, affect the calculation of that value include:

1. the number of performance rights held by Mr Jetson prior to cessation of employment;
2. the number of performance rights that vest (which could be all of the performance rights held by Mr Jetson). The Board's decision as to the number of performance rights that vest will depend on, among other things, the circumstances of Mr Jetson's cessation of employment (for example, whether due to death, disability, redundancy or other reasons approved by the Board), the Board's assessment of Mr Jetson's performance in the period up to cessation of employment, the degree to which the performance conditions have been met at the relevant time, and the duration of Mr Jetson's employment; and
3. the market price of Shares on ASX on the last ten ASX trading days up to and including the date of calculation.

The number of performance rights that could vest upon Mr Jetson ceasing employment, where the Board determines to permit performance rights to vest, will not exceed the maximum number of performance rights held by Mr Jetson.

Board recommendation

The Board, with Mr Jetson abstaining, considers that the proposed grant of performance rights is appropriate and in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders. The grant strengthens the alignment of Mr Jetson's interests with Shareholders and provides an incentive linked to continued growth of the Company's earnings and share price over the next 3 years. On this basis, the Board unanimously recommends the approval of the issue of the performance rights and of the related termination benefits to Mr Jetson and, accordingly, that Shareholders vote in favour of this resolution.

Schedule: Performance rights - Further details

Details of performance rights to be granted to Key Management Personnel in respect of the 2020 financial year (FY20 Performance Rights) are set out in the Schedule of the 2019 Notice of Annual General Meeting released on the ASX on 13 September 2019.

Performance rights to be granted to Key Management Personnel in respect of the 2021 financial year (FY21 Performance Rights) will be offered pursuant to the terms of the Rights Plan approved by the Board on 22 September 2015 and the performance conditions set out below.

1. Performance rights pricing

The issue price of the performance rights is based on the 10 day VWAP on the ASX of the Company's share price up to, and including, the last business day of the financial period immediately preceding the period that the performance rights relate to.

FY21 Performance Rights are priced at $3.15 per right, based on the 10 day VWAP up to and including 30 June 2020.

1. Performance conditions for performance rights
   The performance conditions for FY21 Performance Rights will be measured over a three-year vesting period commencing 1 July 2020 and ending on 30 June 2023. Vesting conditions include satisfying conditions relating to:
2. • Relative Total Shareholder Return (67% weighting),
   • Return on Capital Employed (33% weighting).
3. Change of control
   In the event of a Change of Control of the Company, the Rights Plan provides that the Board may, in its absolute discretion, determine that all or a specified number of FY21 Performance Rights vest, having regard to whether pro-rata performance is consistent with the performance conditions applicable to those FY21 Performance Rights over the period from the date of grant to the date of the Change of Control.
   Malus and clawback
   The Board has absolute discretion to reduce, withhold or cancel all tranches of unvested performance rights in relation to fraud, defalcation or gross misconduct, or a material misstatement in the Group's financial statements.
   Further, the Rights Plan also provides for the recovery of damages from vested Rights in circumstances of fraud, defalcation or gross misconduct.
4. Percentage of relevant total fixed remuneration offered as LTIs for the 2021 financial year

Managing Director and Chief	75%
Executive Officer
Executive General Manager	60%
(CFO and Company Secretary)

The Board has the discretion to vary the relevant percentage each year, having regard to external advice and / or relevant market benchmarks.

5. An example of how performance rights are calculated for the 2021 financial year (assuming the maximum award level) is set out below:

Executive General Manager	$400,000
Total Fixed Remuneration (TFR)	(example only)
LTI award value	$240,000
60% of TFR	(i.e. 60% of TFR)
Performance rights issue price	$3.15
(10 day VWAP)
Performance rights to be granted	76,190 rights
($240,000 ÷ $3.15)

6. Relative TSR

The Relative Total Shareholder Return (Relative TSRor RTSR) is measured against a defined peer group of companies which the Board considers compete with the Company for the same investment capital, both in Australia and overseas, and which by the nature of their business are influenced by commodity prices and other external factors similar to those that impact on the Total Shareholder Return (TSR) performance of the Company.

The comparator group of companies for FY21 Performance Rights comprises the largest twenty companies in the S&P ASX All Ordinaries Gold Index (ASX: XGD) at the start of the performance period and is set out in the table below. At the discretion of the Board, the composition of the comparator group may change from time to time.

Comparator group of companies for FY21 Rights:

Alacer Gold Corporation (ASX: AQG) Alkane Resources Ltd (ASX:ALK) AngloGold Ashanti Limited (ASX: AGG) Bellevue Gold Limited (ASX:BGL)

De Grey Mining Ltd (ASX:DEG) Evolution Mining Limited (ASX: EVN) Gold Road Resources Limited (ASX: GOR) Newcrest Mining Limited (ASX: NCM) Northern Star Resources Limited (ASX: NST) OceanaGold Corporation (ASX: OGC) Perseus Mining Limited (ASX: PRU) Ramelius Resources Limited (ASX: RMS) Red 5 Ltd (ASX:RED)

Regis Resources Limited (ASX: RRL)

Resolute Mining Limited (ASX: RSG)

Saracen Mineral Holdings Limited (ASX: SAR)

Silver Lake Resources Limited (ASX: SLR)

Tribune Resources Limited (ASX: TBR) West African Resources Ltd (ASX:WAF) Westgold Resources Limited (ASX: WGX)

TSR measures the growth for a financial period in the price of shares plus cash distributions during the period. Company and comparator TSR performances are measured using the 10 day VWAP calculation up to, and including, the last business day of the financial period immediately preceding the period that the performance rights relate to, and in determining the closing TSR

page 10

performances at the end of the three year period. Where a comparator company ceases to be listed on the ASX during the vesting period, the average TSR of the remaining comparator companies is applied to that company as if it had been listed for the whole vesting period.

Except when otherwise determined in the discretion of the Board, the proportion of a grant that is subject to a TSR

vesting condition will not vest unless the Company's TSR for the vesting period is greater than nil.

The proportion of the FY21 Performance Rights that vest will be influenced by the Company's TSR relative to the comparator group over the three-year vesting period commencing 1 July 2020 and ending on 30 June 2023 as outlined below:

Relative TSR Performance	% Contribution to the Number of Rights to Vest
Below 50thpercentile	0%
50thpercentile	50%
Between 50th& 75thpercentiles	Pro-rata from 50% to 100%
75thpercentile and above	100%

7. Return on Capital Employed (ROCE)

Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) measures the efficiency with which management uses capital in seeking to increase shareholder value. The proportion of the FY21 Performance Rights that vest will be influenced by the ROCE achieved by the Company over the three-year vesting period commencing 1 July 2020 and ending on 30 June 2023 as outlined below:

Return on Capital Employed (ROCE)	% Contribution to the Number of Rights to Vest
Less than or equal to the average annual weighted average	0%
cost of capital (WACC) over the three year period
commencing on 1 July 2020
WACC (calculated as above) + 3%	50%
WACC (calculated as above) + between 3% and 7%	Pro-rata from 50% to 100%
WACC (calculated as above) + 7%	100%

8. Example of calculation of the number of performance rights to vest

Assuming the following measures over the three-year vesting period commencing on 1 July 2020 and ending on 30 June 2023:

•	Relative TSR:	70%
•	ROCE	WACC + 4%

then the following proportion of performance rights will vest:

1. Relative TSR
   Weighting: 67%

Actual score:	70thpercentile
Calculation:	50% (for achieving the 50thpercentile) + ((70% - 50%) ⎟(75% - 50%)) x (100% - 50%)

1. • 90%
2. Return on Capital Employed (ROCE)
   Weighting: 33%

Actual ROCE:	WACC + 4%
Calculation:	50% (for achieving the 50thpercentile) + ((4% - 3%) ⎟(7% - 3%)) x (100% - 50%)
	= 62.5%

1. Combined score

RTSR (90% result x 67% weighting) + ROCE (62.5% result x 33% weighting) = 80.9%

Using the above example of an executive being issued with 76,190 performance rights, based on the above 80.9% combined score, 61,638 (80.9% x 76,190) performance rights will vest.
