NOTES ON NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

Record Date

The record date for determining entitlement to receive notice of the meeting is close of trading on May 14, 2024. Only those holders of ordinary shares registered in the register of members of the Company as at close of trading on May 14, 2024, or in the event that the AGM is adjourned, not more than 48 hours before the time of the adjourned meeting, shall be entitled to receive notice of the meeting, or any adjourned meeting, in respect of the number of shares registered in their names at that time.

The record date for attendance and voting at the meeting is close of trading on June 19, 2024. Only those holders of ordinary shares registered in the register of members of the Company as at close of trading on June 19, 2024, or in the event that the AGM is adjourned, not more than 48 hours before the time of the adjourned meeting, shall be entitled to vote at the AGM, or any adjourned meeting, in respect of the number of shares registered in their names at that time.

Shareholders of Record; Beneficial Owners

Most holders of the Company’s ordinary shares hold their shares beneficially through a broker, bank or other nominee rather than of record directly in their own name. As summarized below, there are some differences in the way to vote shares held of record and those owned beneficially.

If your shares are registered directly in your name with the transfer agent, you are considered a shareholder of record of those shares. As a shareholder of record, you have the right to grant a voting proxy directly to the persons named as proxy holders or to vote in person at The Claremont, 18 – 22 Loch Promenade, Douglas, Isle of Man, IM1 2LX.

If your shares are held in a brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of the shares held in “street name,” and the broker or nominee is considered the shareholder of record of those shares. As the beneficial owner, you generally have the right to direct the broker on how to vote and are also invited to attend the AGM. However, since you are not the shareholder of record, you may not vote those shares in person at the AGM unless you have a proxy, executed in your favour, from the holder of record of the shares. The applicable broker or nominee will provide a voting instruction card to use in directing the broker or nominee as to how to vote the shares.

Accessing Information regarding the AGM

Information regarding the AGM, including a copy of the Annual Report and Accounts for the year to December 31, 2023, is available from the Company’s website at https://ir.lifezonemetals.com/governance/Annual-General-Meeting/.

Attendance at AGM

If you are a member of the Company at the time set out under the heading “Record Date,” you are entitled to attend and vote and entitled to appoint one or more proxies to attend, speak, and vote and, on a poll, vote instead of you. A proxy need not also be a member of the Company.

Voting Procedures

If you are a shareholder of record, you may vote in person at the AGM or submit your proxy form over the internet or by mail by following the instructions provided herein. A form of proxy is enclosed in this Notice of Annual General Meeting for use in connection with the business set out above. To be valid, forms of proxy and any power of attorney or other authority under which they are signed, or a copy of such authority certified by a notary or in some other way approved by the Board, must be received no later than 48 hours before the meeting. As an alternative to completing and returning the printed form of proxy, you may submit your proxy electronically by accessing www.cstproxyvote.com. You may appoint more than one proxy provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares that you hold. When two or more valid but differing appointments of proxy are delivered in respect of the same share for use at the same meeting and in respect of the same matter, the one which is last validly delivered shall be treated as replacing and revoking the other or others as regards that share. If the Company is unable to determine which appointment was last validly delivered, none of them shall be treated as valid in respect of that share. The appointment of a proxy will not prevent you from attending, speaking and/or voting in person. In the event that and to the extent that you personally vote your shares, your proxy shall not be entitled to vote and any vote cast by a proxy in such circumstances shall be ignored.

If you hold your shares beneficially in “street name” through a broker or other nominee, you must follow the instructions provided by your broker or nominee to vote your shares.

Joint Holders

In the case of joint holders of record the vote of the senior holder who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders. For this purpose, seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names of the holders stand in the Company’s register of members.

In the case of joint holders who hold in “street name”, in order to vote, all the joint holders must sign and return a proxy or voting instructions pursuant to their brokers’ instructions.

Corporate Holders

A corporation which is a member may by resolution of its directors or other governing body authorise one or more persons to act as its representative who may exercise, on its behalf, all its powers as a member, provided that they do not do so in relation to the same shares.

Shares Eligible to Vote; Quorum

As at close of trading on May 14, 2024 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this Notice of Annual General Meeting), the Company’s issued share capital comprised of 80,000,354 ordinary shares. Each ordinary share carries the right to one vote at a general meeting of the Company and, therefore the total number of voting rights in the Company as at close of trading on May 14, 2024 is 80,000,354. The website referred to under the heading “Accessing Information regarding the AGM” will include information on the number of shares and voting rights.

For purposes of the meeting, one or more shareholders entitled to attend and to vote on the business to be transacted at the meeting and holding more than 50% of our ordinary shares will constitute a quorum,

As soon as practicable following the AGM the results of voting at the AGM and the numbers of proxy votes cast for, against or withheld in respect of each resolution will be announced via Form 6-K furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and also placed on the Company’s website referred to under the heading “Accessing Information regarding the AGM”.

Except as provided above, shareholders who have general questions about the AGM should email info@lifezonemetals.com (no other methods of communication will be accepted). You may not use any electronic address provided either:

In this Notice of Annual General Meeting; or

Any related documents (including the Chairman’s letter and proxy form), to communicate with the Company for any purpose other than those expressly stated.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLES AND BOARD PRACTICES

Corporate Governance Principles

Foreign private issuers, such as Lifezone Metals, must briefly highlight any significant ways in which their corporate governance practices differ from those followed by U.S. domestic companies subject to the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”). We intend to follow the rules generally applicable to U.S. domestic companies listed on the NYSE, subject to certain exceptions. In particular, a majority of our board of directors is considered “independent” as defined under NYSE listing rules.

Lifezone Metals is considered a “foreign private issuer” under the securities laws of the U.S. and the rules of the NYSE. Under the applicable securities laws of the U.S., “foreign private issuers” are subject to different disclosure requirements than U.S. domiciled issuers. As a foreign private issuer, Lifezone Metals is not subject to the SEC’s proxy rules. NYSE listing rules include certain accommodations in the corporate governance requirements that allow foreign private issuers, such as us, to follow “home country” corporate governance practices in lieu of the otherwise applicable corporate governance standards of NYSE. Accordingly, Lifezone Metals’ shareholders may not receive the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the NYSE’s corporate governance requirements.

Certain corporate governance practices in the Isle of Man, Lifezone Metals’ home country, may differ significantly from NYSE corporate governance listing standards. For instance, Lifezone Metals may choose to follow home country practice in lieu of NYSE corporate governance listing standards such as:

●

having a majority of the board be independent (although all of the members of the audit committee must be independent under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended (the “Exchange Act”));

●

having a compensation committee and a nominating or corporate governance committee consisting entirely of independent directors;

●

having annual meetings and director elections; and

●

obtaining shareholder approval prior to certain issuances (or potential issuances of securities).

Lifezone Metals intends to follow home country practice and be exempt from requirements to obtain shareholder approval for the issuance of 20% or more of its outstanding shares under NYSE listing rule 312.03(c).

Lifezone Metals has formed board committees beyond those required under Isle of Man law. In addition to maintaining an audit committee consisting of at least three independent directors under NYSE listing rules, we established the following board committees: (1) a compensation committee; (2) a nominating and corporate governance committee; (3) an investment committee; (4) a disclosure committee; and (5) a sustainability committee. For more information, see “Board Practices - Board Committees.”

Lifezone Metals intends to take all actions necessary for it to maintain compliance as a foreign private issuer under the applicable corporate governance requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the rules adopted by the SEC and the NYSE corporate governance rules and listing standards.

Because Lifezone Metals is a foreign private issuer, its directors and senior management are not subject to short-swing profit and insider trading reporting obligations under Section 16 of the Exchange Act. They will, however, be subject to the obligation to report changes in share ownership under Section 13 of the Exchange Act and related SEC rules.

In addition, we have policies and systems in place to promote ethical conduct and mitigate against a variety of risks, including ethics, conduct, modern slavery, anti-bribery and corruption, human rights, environmental, health and safety, insider trading and disclosure, trade compliance and sanctions, data protection and whistle-blowing.

Board Practices

Board Composition

The Lifezone Metals board is composed of eight directors and is divided into three classes. At each annual general meeting, each of the Directors of the relevant class, the term of which shall then expire, shall be eligible for re-election to the board for a period of three years.

The Company has examined its governance obligations as a public company, as well as the rules and regulations of the SEC and NYSE. The Company has also considered carefully the standards that apply to it as a foreign private issuer and the fact that it is a relatively young company. In addition to this, we consulted with our shareholders in 2023, and following these discussions we consider that amending the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to vote on annual election of directors is not a priority item for the Company at this time. The board of directors intends to keep this item under review and also if the Company is notified of any specific shareholder feedback.

Robert Edwards (Lead Independent Director) was previously Executive Chairman of Bluejay Mining plc, a London listed junior mining company, as well as holding two other independent director roles. In order to negate any perception of overboarding, Robert Edwards stepped down from his position as Executive Chairman of Bluejay Ming plc in December 2023.

Lifezone Metals’ directors are divided among the three classes as follows:

●

the Class I directors include John Dowd, Govind Friedland and Mwanaidi Maajar and their terms will expire at this AGM;

●

the Class II directors include Robert Edwards, Jennifer Houghton and Beatriz Orrantia and their terms will expire at the 2025 AGM; and

●

the Class III directors include Keith Liddell and Chris Showalter and their terms will expire at the 2026 AGM.

Director Independence

The Lifezone Metals board has determined that each member of the Lifezone Metals board qualifies as independent, as defined under the listing rules of NYSE, other than Mr. Liddell and Mr. Showalter. In addition, Robert Edwards was appointed as Lead Independent Director in February 2024.

Board Oversight of Risk

One of the key functions of the Lifezone Metals board is informed oversight of the Company’s risk management process. The Lifezone Metals board has appointed the audit committee to assist in the oversight of Lifezone’s financial risk exposures and risk management and the compliance by the Company with applicable legal and regulatory requirements. The audit committee, among other things, also reviews and approves all related party transactions, oversees the risk management framework and satisfy itself that the framework is sound. It establishes and communicates the Company’s risk appetite, endorses the risk policy and standards of Lifezone and is regularly briefed on and considers cyber security threats.

The CEO of Lifezone is accountable for assigning appropriate responsibilities for implementing and embedding risk management into the decision-making process across the Company, while the COO of Lifezone is overall responsible for the roll-out of this risk management policy and processes. Both attend audit committee meetings and the COO is tasked to ensure that adequate processes and procedures are in place to enable Lifezone Metals to operate with an appropriate balance of risks and controls. The COO has oversight that the Company maintains up to date risk registers and provides a report at least quarterly to the audit committee. The CFO is responsible for the oversight of all internal controls and risk related to financial processes and financial reporting.

In addition, the Lifezone Metals board as a whole, as well as through the various standing committees of the Lifezone Metals board, addresses risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. For example, the audit committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks associated with the Company’s financial reporting, accounting and auditing matters, and the Company’s compensation committee oversees the management of risks associated with Lifezone Metals’ compensation policies and programs.

Board Committees

The Lifezone Metals board has established an audit committee, a compensation committee, a nominating and corporate governance committee, a disclosure committee, an investment committee, and a sustainability committee.

The Lifezone Metals board may establish other committees to facilitate the management of the Company’s business.

The Lifezone Metals board and its committees hold scheduled meetings throughout the year and can also hold special meetings and act by written consent from time to time, as appropriate. The Lifezone Metals board has delegated various responsibilities and authority to its committees as generally described below. The committees will regularly report on their activities and actions to the full Lifezone Metals board.

Each committee of the Lifezone Metals board has a written charter approved by the Lifezone Metals board. Copies of each charter are posted on the Company’s website at www.lifezonemetals.com. The inclusion of the Company’s website address in this proxy statement does not include or incorporate by reference the information on Lifezone Metals’ website into this proxy statement, and you should not consider information contained on the Company’s website to be part of this proxy statement. Members will serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by the Lifezone Metals board.

Conflicts of Interest

Under Isle of Man law, the directors owe fiduciary duties at both common law and under statute, including a duty to act honestly, and in good faith with a view to the best interests of Lifezone Metals. In exercising the powers of a director, the directors must exercise their powers for a proper purpose and shall not act or agree to the company acting in a manner that contravenes the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of Lifezone Metals of the Companies Act 2006 of the Isle of Man (“IOM Companies Act”).

In addition to the above, directors also owe a duty of care which is not fiduciary in nature. This duty has been defined as a requirement to act as a reasonably diligent person having both the general knowledge, skill and experience that may reasonably be expected of a person carrying out the same functions as are carried out by that director in relation to the company and the general knowledge skill and experience which that director has.

Isle of Man law does not regulate transactions between a company and its significant members; however it does provide that such transactions must be entered into in good faith in the best interests of the company and not with the effect of constituting a fraud on the minority members.

Directors have a duty not to put themselves in a position of conflict and this includes a duty not to engage in self-dealing, or to otherwise benefit as a result of their position. This duty is subject to the IOM Companies Act and the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of Lifezone Metals which provide, in summary, that subject to a director having duly declared his or her interests to the board that director may be party to a transaction with the Company and may vote and count in quorum at a board meeting in respect of a matter in which such director is interested.

Accordingly, as a result of multiple business affiliations, the directors of Lifezone Metals may have similar legal obligations relating to presenting business opportunities to multiple entities. In addition, conflicts of interest may arise when the board of Lifezone Metals evaluates a particular business opportunity.

Lifezone Metals cannot assure you that any of the above-mentioned conflicts will be resolved in its favor. Furthermore, each of the directors of Lifezone Metals may have pre-existing fiduciary obligations to other businesses of which they are officers or directors.

Limitation on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

The IOM Companies Act provides that, subject to contrary provision in its articles, a company may indemnify against all expenses, including legal fees, and against all judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement and reasonably incurred in connection with legal, administrative or investigative proceedings any person who: (a) is or was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director of the company; or (b) is or was, at the request of the company, serving as a director of, or in any other capacity is or was acting for, another body corporate or a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The IOM Companies Act provides that this does not apply to a person referred to above unless such person acted honestly and in good faith and in what such person believed to be in the best interests of the company and, in the case of criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe that the conduct of such person was unlawful.

RESOLUTIONS TO BE VOTED ON

The articles of association of the Company provide that the Board shall be divided into three classes, designated Class I Directors, Class II Directors and Class III Directors.

At each annual general meeting, each of the Directors of the relevant class the term of which shall then expire shall be eligible for re-election to the Board for a period of three years.
