Tāiko Critical Minerals Limited - Notice of Special Meeting
Chair’s letter
Dear Shareholder,
A Notice accompanies this letter convening a Special Meeting of shareholders to approve the purchase from
Barrytown Farms Limited of the Barrytown Farms property referred to Taiko’s NZX announcement dated 22 June
2026.
The Barrytown Farms Agreement is subject to a number of conditions, including shareholder approval. The
purchase price under the acquisition constitutes a major transaction for the purposes of section 129(1) of the
Companies Act 1993 requiring shareholder approval.
The purpose of this Notice is to provide shareholders with the information necessary to make an informed decision
when voting on the resolution to approve the purchase.
The Board considers the Barrytown Farms property to be critical to Tāiko’s ability to advance the wider Barrytown
Project. The agreement provides Tāiko with a right to acquire the property, subject to the satisfaction of certain
conditions, including completion of due diligence, Overseas Investment Office (OIA) consent, project consents and
the Board’s Final Investment Decision.
The Board unanimously recommends that shareholders approve the resolution. The reasons for this
recommendation are set out in the explanatory notes accompanying the Notice of Meeting. Each director intends
to vote all shares held or controlled by them in favour of the resolution.
The Special Meeting will be held online. Shareholders who appoint a proxy may still attend the Special Meeting
online. However, if a proxy has already been appointed, the shareholder will not be able to vote at the meeting
unless the proxy appointment is revoked or amended in the manner permitted by the Company’s share registrar.
Please read this Notice carefully and ensure your vote is cast either by attending the Special Meeting online or by

Yours sincerely,
Phil Thick

Tāiko Critical Minerals Limited - Notice of Special Meeting
2. Explanatory Notes - Background to the Purchase
2.1 Background to Tāiko and the Barrytown Project
Tāiko intends to develop and produce high-value critical minerals, with a focus on ilmenite, zircon and garnet,
through implementation of a “mine to market” strategy. Tāiko has obtained resource consents permitting the
extraction of mineral resource from the Coates South Block, as well as consent to construct and operate a mineral
separation plant at Rapahoe.
Tāiko’s Listing Profile, available at https://www.nzx.com/announcements/468682, identified the Barrytown Farms
Block as a property that Tāiko was negotiating to acquire. The Barrytown Farms Agreement secures Tāiko’s right
to purchase that property subject to the satisfaction of the relevant conditions. The agreement with the vendor
was entered into on 22 June 2026.
2.2 Why the Barrytown Farms property matters
The Board considers the Barrytown Farms property strategically important because:
the Barrytown Farms Block forms part of the land subject to the Mining Permit and is within the broader
proposed mineral resource extension area;
Tāiko’s Listing Profile identified acquiring the Barrytown Farms Block as a key commercial and regulatory
milestone for the Project;
ownership of the property will underpin the Company’s resource consent, OIA consent, funding, development
and operational planning for the Project;
Tāiko’s broader “mine to market” strategy contemplates mining the mineral resource on the Coates South
Block initially and the Canoe Creek, Barrytown Farms and Cargill South Blocks subsequently, subject to the
required approvals and funding.
The Barrytown Farms property is currently operated as an active dairy farm. The property is referred to in Tāiko’s
Listing Profile as the Barrytown Farms Block and is located within Mining Permit MP60785, between Property 1
and Property 2 as shown on the map on page 14 of the Listing Profile, available at
https://www.nzx.com/announcements/468682. The Barrytown Farms Mineral Resource Estimate includes maps
showing the location of the Barrytown Farms Block within the broader Barrytown Project area, including Figure 1
on page 20, available at https://www.nzx.com/companies/TCM/documents.
The Barrytown Farms property is located within the area expected to be covered by Tāiko’s proposed Southern
Block resource consent application, which was lodged 8 June 2026. If the resource consents are obtained, Tāiko
intends that the mineral resource on the Barrytown Farms property will form part of the broader Barrytown
Project.
The acquisition is also relevant to the key commercial milestones identified in the Listing Profile, including
completion of the DFS, obtaining OIA consent and undertaking future project funding. Tāiko expects that securing
a binding agreement for the Barrytown Farms property will support its pathway to a final DFS because the DFS is
expected to assess the broader Barrytown Project, including the Barrytown Farms property.

Tāiko Critical Minerals Limited - Notice of Special Meeting
2.3 Background to the proposed transaction
The Company has been negotiating the terms of a sale and purchase agreement with Barrytown Farms Limited
for the acquisition of the Barrytown Farms property. The proposed transaction has been structured so that the
Company acquires the right to purchase the property in the future, with completion subject to several conditions
that protect the Company, including due diligence, OIA consent, Project Consents and a Final Investment Decision.
The Barrytown Farms Agreement is conditional on shareholder approval. This means that the Company will not
complete the transaction unless shareholders approve the resolution and the other conditions are satisfied.
2.4 Status of key project milestones
Tāiko’s Listing Profile dated 26 February 2026 identified a number of key commercial and regulatory milestones
for the Barrytown Project, including entering into a legally binding agreement to acquire the Barrytown Farms
Block, receiving completed JORC reports for the Canoe Creek and Cargill South Blocks, receiving the completed
DFS, obtaining the New Resource Consent, obtaining OIA consent and securing project funding. Entry into the
Barrytown Farms Agreement is intended to progress the milestone relating to acquisition of the Barrytown Farms
Block and remains consistent with the indicative timing set out in the Listing Profile. Tāiko continues to progress
the other key milestones for the Barrytown Project.
As at the date of this Notice, Tāiko does not consider there has been any material change to the anticipated timing
of those milestones as disclosed in the Listing Profile, except as subsequently disclosed by Tāiko through NZX.

Tāiko Critical Minerals Limited - Notice of Special Meeting
3. Explanatory Notes - Key terms of the Barrytown Farms Agreement
The following is a summary of all material terms of the Barrytown Farms Agreement. It is not a complete statement
of the agreement. Shareholders should read this Notice as a whole.
Term Summary
Parties Tāiko Critical Minerals Limited as purchaser and Barrytown Farms Limited as vendor.
Property
The Barrytown Farms property comprises approximately 304.4522 hectares. The relevant
records of title are 145034, 161879, WS1A/1166, WS1A/892, WS1A/293, WS2A/228,
WS2B/595, WS5A/454 and WS8B/528. The property includes the area referred to as the
Barrytown Farms Block in Tāiko’s Listing Profile and the Barrytown Farms Mineral Resource
Estimate.
Purchase price
NZ$18,000,000 plus GST (if any). Except where settlement has not occurred due to vendor
default, if settlement is not completed within two years from the date of the agreement, the
purchase price is adjusted by CPI under the formula in the agreement.
Deposit
The deposit payable under the Barrytown Farms Agreement is up to NZ$1,000,000,
comprising:
(a) Cash Deposit: NZ$200,000 cash, payable following the later of 1 working day after
satisfaction of the Approval Condition and confirmation of the vendor’s mortgagee
consent. The Cash Deposit is non-refundable, except in the case of vendor default;
(b) 2 Year Deposit: if the Barrytown Farms Agreement has not settled by 2 years and 1
day after the date of this Agreement, NZ$500,000 cash is payable on that date. The 2
Year Deposit is non-refundable, except in the case of vendor default; and
(c) Share Deposit: NZ$300,000, to be satisfied by the issue of 1,436,100 Tāiko ordinary
shares to the vendor at an issue price of approximately NZ$0.2089 per share. The
shares are to be issued on the working day immediately following the later of 10
working days after satisfaction of the Approval Condition and confirmation of the
vendor’s mortgagee consent. The issue price represents the volume weighted
average price of Tāiko’s shares over the 20 working days immediately preceding 26
May 2026. The Share Deposit is non-refundable, except if the agreement is cancelled
due to vendor default.
The deposit forms part of the purchase price and will be credited against the purchase price
payable by Tāiko on settlement.
No shareholder approval is being sought under this Notice for the issue of the shares under
the Share Deposit. Tāiko expects to issue those shares under its 15% placement capacity under
NZX Listing Rule 4.5.1. The shares represent approximately 0.35% of Tāiko’s Shares on issue
and therefore do not exceed that placement capacity.
Shareholder approval
condition
The Barrytown Farms Agreement is conditional on Tāiko obtaining shareholder and NZX
regulatory approvals within 30 working days of the date of the agreement. That period may
be extended once by Tāiko by notice to the vendor for a further 10 working days due to NZX
regulatory requirements. This includes Tāiko shareholders approving, by special resolution,
Tāiko’s entry into, performance and completion of the agreement and the transactions
contemplated by it. For the purposes of the agreement, that shareholder approval limb of this
condition will be satisfied only if the resolution is passed and votes cast against the resolution
do not exceed 5% of the total shares on issue.
8
Tāiko Critical Minerals Limited - Notice of Special Meeting
Due diligence
condition
Tāiko must be satisfied with the results of its due diligence investigation as to the suitability of
the property for Tāiko’s intended use and development. This condition is to be satisfied within
60 working days from the date of the agreement.
OIA consent condition
Tāiko must obtain any required consent under the Overseas Investment Act 2005 and
Overseas Investment Regulations 2005 on terms satisfactory to Tāiko in its sole discretion.
This condition is to be satisfied within two years from the date of the agreement.
Project Consents
condition
Tāiko must obtain any required consents and approvals for its proposed Barrytown mineral
sand mining, extraction and processing project to be carried out on the property and other
properties. This condition is to be satisfied within three years from the date of the agreement.
Final Investment
Decision condition
Tāiko must notify the vendor that the Board has approved its final feasibility assessment and
decision to purchase the property and carry out the Project. This condition is to be satisfied
within six months from the satisfaction of the later of the OIA consent and Project Consents
conditions.
Mortgagee consent
The vendor must provide mortgagee consent within 10 working days of the date of the
agreement. The deposit is not payable until the mortgagee consent requirements have been
satisfied.
Operation of
conditions
Tāiko can decide when it progresses satisfaction of the OIA consent, Project Consents and Final
Investment Decision conditions. The conditions are inserted for the sole benefit of Tāiko, and
Tāiko is not obliged to give reasons if any condition is not satisfied.
Settlement
Settlement is expected to occur on the 10th working day following the agreement becoming
unconditional in all respects.
Farm lease
Following settlement, Tāiko will lease the property back to the vendor under the farm lease.
The farm lease will commence on settlement and continue through the remainder of the then
current milking season plus one additional milking season. For this purpose, the milking season
runs from 1 June to 31 May each year. The annual rent under the farm lease will be
NZ$127,500 plus GST. Tāiko does not expect the lease-back arrangement to materially
prejudice its proposed operations, having regard to the expected timing of the remaining
project steps, including OIA consent, Project Consents and the Board’s Final Investment
Decision.
Access and technical
assessments
Before settlement, Tāiko may undertake technical assessments on the property, subject to
notice, liaison with the vendor and obligations to compensate or make good direct damage to
crops, stock or improvements.
Affected person
approval
The vendor must sign and return affected person approvals for relevant resource consent,
fast-track, plan change or similar applications affecting the property, and must not revoke
those approvals or participate in related planning processes in connection with mine
developments affecting the property.
Vendor warranties
and covenants
The agreement includes resource consent, environmental, good husbandry, farm system,
tree/carbon, fertiliser, farm records, tenancies and biosecurity provisions.
Confidentiality and
disclosure

4. Approval requirements and Board recommendation
4.1 Why shareholder approval is being sought
The Board is seeking shareholder approval by special resolution because the Barrytown Farms Agreement will
constitute a major transaction for the purposes of section 129(2)(a) of the Companies Act 1993.
Under section 129(2)(a), a major transaction includes the acquisition of assets where the value of those assets is
more than half the value of the Company’s assets before the acquisition. Tāiko’s total assets as at 31 March 2026
were $13,031,500.00. The acquisition value of the Barrytown Farms property is $18,000,000.00 (plus GST if any).
Accordingly, the acquisition value exceeds one-half of the value of Tāiko’s total assets. The resolution is also
intended to satisfy the shareholder approval condition in the Barrytown Farms Agreement.
Under the Companies Act, a special resolution is passed if approved by a majority of 75% or more of the votes of
shareholders entitled to vote and voting on the resolution. Under the NZX Listing Rules, voting will be conducted
by poll.
Acquisitions of assets which have a value greater than one-half of the assets of a company are treated as “Major
Transactions” under the Companies Act 1993 requiring the approval of shareholders by special resolution. The
10
Tāiko Critical Minerals Limited - Notice of Special Meeting
Barrytown Farms Agreement is a “Major Transaction” requiring that shareholder approval. The Companies Act
requirement is not to be confused with “major transactions” under NZX listing rule 5.1.1 which requires
shareholder approval by ordinary resolution if a listed issuer enters into a transaction which either involves a
significant change to the nature of Tāiko’s business or an acquisition of assets with a Gross Value above 50% of
the issuers market capitalization. That listing rule does not apply if the transaction is a Major Transaction” subject
to shareholder approval by special resolution under the Companies Act – as is the case with the Barrytown Farms
acquisition.
4.2 Board recommendation
The Board unanimously recommends that shareholders vote in favour of the resolution. The Board’s reasons are:
the agreement secures Tāiko’s ability to acquire an important property within the broader Barrytown
Project area if the relevant conditions are satisfied;
the acquisition supports the Company’s New Resource Consent, OIA consent, DFS, funding and project
development pathway;
the principal conditions are for Tāiko’s benefit and preserve Tāiko’s ability not to proceed if those
conditions are not achieved on terms satisfactory to Tāiko;
the transaction aligns with Tāiko’s strategy of progressing the Barrytown Project and the “mine to market”
model described in its Listing Profile.
Each director intends to vote all shares held or controlled by them in favour of the resolution.
5. Consequences, alternatives, risk and impact
5.1 Consequences if the resolution is passed
If the resolution is passed, and the votes cast against the resolution do not exceed 5% of the total shares on issue,
the shareholder approval condition under the Barrytown Farms Agreement will be satisfied. If the other
conditions to the Barrytown Farms Agreement are also satisfied, Tāiko will be authorised to proceed with the
agreement and complete the acquisition of the Barrytown Farms property.
Passing the resolution will not, in itself, require completion to occur if other conditions remain unsatisfied. Tāiko
will retain the benefit of the purchaser conditions and will be able to proceed with, defer, waive or terminate
those conditions in accordance with the Barrytown Farms Agreement.
5.2 Consequences if the resolution is not passed or the 5% threshold is exceeded
If the resolution is not passed, the shareholder approval condition to the Barrytown Farms Agreement will not be
satisfied. Tāiko expects that it will not be able to proceed with or complete the Barrytown Farms Agreement in
its current form unless the parties agree otherwise.
If the resolution is passed but votes cast against the resolution exceed 5% of the total shares on issue, the
shareholder approval condition under the Barrytown Farms Agreement will not be satisfied unless that condition
is waived or the parties agree otherwise.
11
Tāiko Critical Minerals Limited - Notice of Special Meeting
If the Barrytown Farms Agreement does not proceed, Tāiko would not acquire the Barrytown Farms property and
would not have the property rights required to mine or develop that land as part of the wider Barrytown Project.
This would not affect Tāiko’s existing resource consents for the Coates South Block or the mineral separation plant
at Rapahoe. However, it may require Tāiko to narrow, defer or restructure its proposed New Resource Consent
strategy for the expanded project area, because that strategy currently contemplates the Canoe Creek, Barrytown
Farms and Cargill South Blocks forming part of the broader mineral resource extension area.
In those circumstances, Tāiko expects that it would be restricted to undertaking its proposed extraction,
processing and related activities on other land where it has the necessary resource consents, permits and land
access or ownership rights. Tāiko may need to consider alternative land access, acquisition or project
development arrangements. There is no assurance that any alternative arrangement would be available on terms
acceptable to Tāiko, or at all.
5.3 Alternatives considered
The Board considered alternatives to the proposed transaction, including not proceeding with the acquisition,
relying on access or affected person arrangements rather than ownership, delaying entry into the agreement until
after further consenting, OIA or DFS milestones, and seeking to acquire the property on different commercial
terms. The Board considers the Barrytown Farms Agreement preferable as it secures Tāiko’s right to acquire the
property while preserving conditions for Tāiko’s benefit.
5.4 Consideration and valuation
The purchase price under the Barrytown Farms Agreement is NZ$18,000,000 plus GST (if any), subject to any CPI
adjustment contained in the agreement if settlement is not completed within two years from the date of the
agreement, except due to vendor default.
The Barrytown Farms Agreement was negotiated at arm’s length between a willing seller and willing purchaser.
The purchase price reflects the parties’ commercial agreement, having regard to the strategic value of the
Barrytown Farms property to the broader Barrytown Project. The agreement provides for Tāiko to proceed with
the acquisition only following a Final Investment Decision at its sole discretion.
No independent valuation has been obtained for the Barrytown Farms property. The Board considers that the
strategic benefit of securing the property for the Barrytown Project supports the agreed purchase price.
5.5 Capital and payment of consideration
Tāiko’s Listing Profile referred to proposed future project funding of approximately $125 million, of which
approximately $26 million was proposed to be applied to the acquisition of property. At the date of the Listing
Profile, two of the proposed acquisition properties were subject to sale and purchase agreements for a total
amount of $14 million. The Barrytown Farms property was still being negotiated. Those negotiations have
resulted in additional land area being included in the acquisition, plus several residences, for a purchase price of
$18 million plus GST, if any. If the Barrytown Farms Agreement becomes unconditional, Tāiko expects that part
of its future project funding will be applied to settle the purchase price for the Barrytown Farms property.
Payment of the NZ$200,000 Cash Deposit will reduce Tāiko’s available cash by that amount. Tāiko does not expect
payment of the Cash Deposit to materially affect its ability to meet its near-term operating expenditure
requirements, having regard to its cash position disclosed in the quarterly cash flow report released on 29 April
2026 and the forecast monthly expenditure referred to in the Listing Profile.
12
Tāiko Critical Minerals Limited - Notice of Special Meeting
If the Barrytown Farms Agreement becomes unconditional, Tāiko will need to raise further capital to settle the
balance of the purchase price. Tāiko expects that funding to form part of the future project funding referred to
in the Listing Profile.
6. Dissenting shareholder buy-out rights
Important: Under sections 110 to 115 of the Companies Act 1993, shareholders who vote against a special
resolution approving a major transaction may have the right to require the Company to purchase their shares.
To exercise this right, a shareholder must cast all votes attached to their shares against the resolution. If the
resolution is passed, that shareholder may then give written notice to the Company requiring the Company to
purchase those shares. That notice must be given within 10 working days after the resolution is passed.
If the Company receives valid notice, the Board must, within 20 working days, either agree to the Company
purchasing the shares, arrange for another person to purchase the shares, apply to the Court for an exemption,
or arrange for the resolution to be rescinded or decide not to proceed with the relevant action.
If the Board agrees that the Company will purchase the shares, the Company must offer a fair and reasonable
price for those shares. That price is determined as at the close of business on the day before the resolution is
passed, adjusted to exclude any fluctuation in value due to, or in expectation of, the transaction approved by the
resolution. If the shareholder objects to the price offered, the price may be referred to arbitration in accordance
with the Companies Act.
For the purposes of the Barrytown Farms Agreement, the shareholder approval condition will only be satisfied if
the resolution is passed and the votes cast against the resolution do not exceed 5% of the shares in Tāiko Critical
Minerals Limited. If that threshold is exceeded, the shareholder approval condition under the Barrytown Farms
Agreement will not be satisfied unless that condition is waived or the parties agree otherwise. This limitation on
dissenting votes is to ensure that the extent of the exercise of these rights does not materially adversely affect
Tāiko’s corporate treasury position.
Shareholders should seek independent legal advice on the availability and exercise of any buy-out rights.
