Non-executive directors’ fees and payments are reviewed at least annually by the Board. The Chair’s fees are determined independently to the fees of non-executive directors based on comparative roles in the external market and prevailing market conditions. The advice of independent remuneration consultants is sought on an annual basis. Non-executive directors’ remuneration consists of fixed fee amounts. During the year ended 31 December 2025, the fee for non-executive directors was $77,000 per annum, and the Non-Executive Chair’s fee was $115,000 per annum. There were no fee increases for non-executive directors in 2025. Following the Company’s annual review in January 2026, the Non-Executive Chair’s fee increased to $125,000 per annum, and the fee for non-executive directors increased to $83,000 per annum. Directors do not receive additional committee fees. Non-executive directors’ fees are subject to an aggregate pool limit, which is periodically recommended for approval by shareholders. The approved pool limit is currently $600,000. There is no provision for retirement allowances for non- executive directors. Non-executive directors may be granted options from time to time to provide a meaningful additional incentive for their ongoing commitment and dedication to the continued growth of the Group and to assist the Company in attracting and retaining the highest calibre of Non-Executive Director, whilst maintaining the Group’s cash reserves. There were no options granted or issued to non-executive directors in the period. Prior to issuing incentives the Board considers whether the issue is reasonable in the circumstances. 16.5 Key Management Personnel and Director Transactions No loans have been made to directors or other KMP of Centaurus Metals Limited or the Group or to any of their related parties.
