Operations

Significant Litigation Proceedings - Dispute with Polish Government

The Company's Claim against the Republic of Poland is being prosecuted through an established and enforceable legal framework, with Prairie and Poland agreeing to apply the UNCITRAL rules to the proceedings.

Both the BIT and ECT claim Tribunals have been constituted, with both Claim's being registered with the Permanent Court of Arbitration in the Hague. The BIT and ECT claim proceedings proceed at pace, with the Company now having filed a Claim for compensation against Poland with the Tribunal in the amount of GBP806 million (A$1.5 billion / PLN 4.2 billion), which includes an assessment of the value of Prairie's lost profits and damages related to both the JKM and Debiensko mines, and accrued interest related to any damages. The Claim for damages has been assessed by external quantum experts appointed by Prairie specifically for the purposes of the Claim.

In July 2020, the Company announced it had executed a LFA for US$12.3 million with Litigation Capital Management ( LCM ). The facility is currently being drawn down to cover legal, tribunal and external expert costs and defined operating expenses associated with the Claim.

In September 2020, Prairie announced that it had formally commenced with the Claim by serving the Notices of Arbitration against the Republic of Poland.

Prairie's dispute alleges that the Republic of Poland has breached its obligations under the applicable Treaties through its actions to block the development of the Company's Jan Karski and Debiensko mines in Poland which effectively deprives Prairie of the entire value of its investments in Poland.

In February 2019, Prairie formally notified the Polish Government that there exists an investment dispute between Prairie and the Polish Government. Prairie's notification called for prompt negotiations with the Government to amicably resolve the dispute and indicated Prairie's right to submit the dispute to international arbitration in the event of the dispute not being resolved amicably. The Company remains open to resolving the dispute with the Polish Government amicably. However, as of the date of this report, no amicable resolution of the dispute has occurred, since the Polish Government has declined to participate in discussions related to the dispute and accordingly the Company has formerly submitted its Claim as discussed above.

Prairie's investment dispute with the Republic of Poland is not unique, with international media widely reporting that the political environment and investment climate in Poland has deteriorated since the change in Government in 2015. As a result, there have been a significant number of International Arbitration claims being brought against Poland in the natural resources and energy sectors with damages claims ranging from US$120 million to over US$1.3 billion and includes Bluegas NRG Holding (Gas), Lumina Copper (Copper) and InvEnergy (wind farms).

Corporate

Business Development

A number of opportunities have been reviewed during the year, and the Company will continue in its efforts to identify and acquire suitable new business opportunities. The Company is currently focusing on new opportunities in the resources sector.

However, no agreements have been reached or licences granted, and the Company is not able to assess the likelihood or timing of a successful acquisition or grant of any opportunities .

Share Purchase Plan

During the year, the Company completed a SPP to raise A$4 million before costs for working capital requirements and business development opportunities.

Results of Operations

The net loss of the Consolidated Entity for the year ended 30 June 2021 was $879,388 (2020: $3,307,600). Significant items contributing to the current year loss and the substantial differences from the previous financial year include:

(i) Arbitration related costs of $4,048,329 (2020: $906,036) relating to the Claim against Republic of Poland. This has been offset by the arbitration funding income of $4,070,724 (2020: $906,036);

   (ii)   Sale of land rights at Debiensko of $640,409 (2020: nil); 

(iii) Exploration and Evaluation expenses of $824,247 (2020: $1,854,827), which is attributable to the Group's accounting policy of expensing exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred by the Group subsequent to the acquisition of rights to explore and up to the commencement of a bankable feasibility study for each separate area of interest, which relates to legal and permitting expenditure and payments to consultants in Poland;

(iv) Business development expenses of $256,380 (2020: $299,241) which includes expenses relating to the Group's review of new business and project opportunities plus also investor relations activities during the year including digital marketing and business development consultant costs ;

(v) Non-cash share-based payment reversal of $548,745 (2020: expense of $163,613) due to incentive securities issued to key management personnel and other key employees and consultants of the Group as part of the long-term incentive plan to reward key management personnel and other key employees and consultants for the long-term performance of the Group. The expense results from the Group's accounting policy of expensing the fair value (determined using an appropriate pricing model) of incentive securities granted on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the options and rights. During the year, 6.23 million performance rights did not vest and lapsed with $661,876 being reversed from the reserve to profit and loss; and

(vi) Revenue of $297,875 (2020: $456,726) consisting of interest income of $23,203 (2020: $60,423) and the receipt of $274,672 (2020: $396,303) of gas and property lease income derived at Debiensko.

Financial Position

At 30 June 2021, the Company had cash reserves of $4,774,968 (2020: $2,566,518). With the US$12.3 million LFA arbitration facility (US$8.9 million available for drawdown at 30 June 2021), the Company is in a strong financial position to continue with the Claim and business development activities.

At 30 June 2021, the Company had net assets of $5,684,113 (2020: $3,998,552), an increase of 42% compared with the previous year. This is largely attributable to the increase in cash reserves, following the completion of the SPP, and small decrease in trade and other payables.

Business Strategies and Prospects for Future Financial Years

Prairie's strategy is to create long-term shareholder value. This now includes pursuing the Claim against the Republic of Poland through international arbitration.

As discussed throughout this report, various measures directed against Prairie by the Polish government in breach of Polish and international law with respect to the Company's permitting process and licenses, have blocked Prairie's pathway to any future production from its Polish projects.

To achieve its objective, the Group currently has the following business strategies and prospects:

-- Continue to enforce its rights through an established and enforceable legal framework in relation to international arbitration for the investment dispute between Prairie and the Polish Government that has arisen out of certain measures taken by Poland in breach of the Treaties;

   --       Continue to assess corporate options for Prairie's investments in Poland; and 
   --       Identify and assess other suitable business opportunities in the resources sector. 

All of these activities are inherently risky and the Board is unable to provide certainty of the expected results of these activities, or that any or all of these likely activities will be achieved. Furthermore, Prairie will continue to take all necessary actions to pursue the Company's legal rights regarding its investments in Poland, if and as required. The material business risks faced by the Group that could have an effect on the Group's future prospects, and how the Group manages these risks, include the following:

-- Litigation risk - All industries, including the mining industry, are subject to legal and arbitration claims. Specifically, and as noted above, the Company formally commenced its Claim following lodgement of its notices of arbitration with against the Republic of Poland. Prairie will strongly defend its position and continue to take all relevant actions to pursue its legal rights regarding both the Debiensko and JKM projects. There is however no certainty that the Claim will be successful. If the Claim is unsuccessful, then this may have a material impact on the value of the Company's securities.

-- The Company may be adversely affected by fluctuations in foreign exchange - Current and planned activities are predominantly denominated in Stirling and/or Euros and the Company's ability to fund these activates may be adversely affected if the Australian dollar continues to fall against these currencies. The Company currently does not engage in any hedging or derivative transactions to manage foreign exchange risk. As the Company's operations change, this policy will be reviewed periodically going forward.

-- The Company may not successfully acquire new projects - the Company may pursue and assess other new business opportunities in the resources sector. These new business opportunities may take the form of direct project acquisitions, joint ventures, farm-ins, acquisition of tenements/permits, or direct equity participation. The Company's success in its acquisition activities depends on its ability to identify suitable projects, acquire them on acceptable terms, and integrate the projects successfully, which the Company's Board is experienced in doing. However, there can be no guarantee that any proposed acquisition will be completed or be successful. If a proposed acquisition is completed the usual risks associated with a new project and/or business activities will remain.

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)

This Remuneration Report, which forms part of the Directors' Report, sets out information about the remuneration of Key Management Personnel ("KMP") of the Group.

Details of KMP

Details of the KMP of the Group during or since the end of the financial year are set out below:

Current Directors

   Mr Ian Middlemas              Chairman 
   Mr Benjamin Stoikovich     Director and CEO 
   Ms Carmel Daniele             Non-Executive Director

   Mr Dylan Browne                 Company Secretary 

Unless otherwise disclosed, the KMP held their position from 1 July 2020 until the date of this report.

Remuneration Policy

The Group's remuneration policy for its KMP has been developed by the Board taking into account the size of the Group, the size of the management team for the Group, the nature and stage of development of the Group's current operations, and market conditions and comparable salary levels for companies of a similar size and operating in similar sectors. In addition to considering the above general factors, the Board has also placed emphasis on the following specific issues in determining the remuneration policy for KMP:

(a) the Group is currently focused on undertaking exploration, appraisal and development activities;

(b) risks associated with small cap resource companies whilst exploring and developing projects; and

(c) other than profit which may be generated from asset sales, the Company does not expect to be undertaking profitable operations until sometime after the commencement of commercial production on any of its projects.

Executive Remuneration

The Group's remuneration policy is to provide a fixed remuneration component and a performance-based component (short term incentive and long term incentive). The Board believes that this remuneration policy is appropriate given the considerations discussed in the section above and is appropriate in aligning executives' objectives with shareholder and business objectives.

Fixed Remuneration

Fixed remuneration consists of base salaries, as well as employer contributions to superannuation funds and other non-cash benefits. Non-cash benefits may include provision of car parking and health care benefits.

Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Board. The process consists of a review of company and individual performance, relevant comparative remuneration externally and internally and, where appropriate, external advice on policies and practices.

Performance Based Remuneration - Short Term Incentive ("STI")

Some executives are entitled to an annual cash incentive payment upon achieving various key performance indicators ("KPI's"), as set by the Board. Having regard to the current size, nature and opportunities of the Company, the Board has determined that these KPI's will include measures such as successful commencement and/or completion of exploration activities (e.g. commencement/completion of exploration programs within budgeted timeframes and costs), establishment of government relationship (e.g. establish and maintain sound working relationships with government and officialdom), development activities (e.g. completion of infrastructure studies and commercial agreements), corporate activities (e.g. recruitment of key personnel and representation of the company at international conferences) and business development activities (e.g. corporate transactions and capital raisings).

Performance Based Remuneration - Short Term Incentive ("STI") (Continued)

These measures were chosen as the Board believes they represent the key drivers in the short and medium-term success of the Company's development. On an annual basis, and subsequent to year end, the Board assesses performance against each individual executive's KPI criteria. During the 2021 financial year, no cash incentive (2020: nil) was paid, or is payable, to KMP.

Performance Based Remuneration - Long Term Incentive

The Group has adopted a long-term incentive plan ("LTIP") comprising the grant of Performance Rights and/or Incentive Options to reward KMP and key employees and contractors for long-term performance of the Company. Shareholders approved the renewal of a Performance Rights Plan" (the "Plan") on 17 August 2017.

To achieve its corporate objectives, the Group needs to attract, incentivise, and retain its key employees and contractors. The Board believes that grants of Performance Rights and/or Incentive Options to KMP will provide a useful tool to underpin the Group's employment and engagement strategy.

   (i)            Performance Rights 

The Group has a Plan that provides for the issuance of unlisted Performance Rights which, upon satisfaction of the relevant performance conditions attached to the Performance Rights, will result in the issue of an Ordinary Share for each Performance Right. Performance Rights are issued for no consideration and no amount is payable upon conversion thereof.

The Plan enables the Group to: (a) recruit, incentivise and retain KMP and other key employees and contractors needed to achieve the Group's business objectives; (b) link the reward of key staff with the achievement of strategic goals and the long-term performance of the Group; (c) align the financial interests of participants of the Plan with those of Shareholders; and (d) provide incentives to participants of the Plan to focus on superior performance that creates Shareholder value.

Performance Rights granted under the Plan to eligible participants will be linked to the achievement by the Company of certain performance conditions as determined by the Board from time to time. These performance conditions must be satisfied in order for the Performance Rights to vest. The Performance Rights also vest where there is a change of control of the Company. Upon Performance Rights vesting, Ordinary Shares are automatically issued for no consideration. If a performance condition of a Performance Right is not achieved by the expiry date then the Performance Right will lapse.

During the financial year, nil Performance Rights were granted to certain KMP. 6,225,000 Performance Rights previously granted to KMP and key employees were forfeited during the financial year.

   (ii)           Incentive Options 

The Group has in the past also chosen to issue Incentive Options to some KMP and key employees and contractors as part of their remuneration and incentive arrangements in order to attract and retain them and to provide an incentive linked to the performance of the Company.

The Board's policy is to grant Incentive Options to KMP with exercise prices at or above market share price (at the time of agreement). As such, any Incentive Options granted to KMP are generally only of benefit if the KMP performed to the level whereby the value of the Group increased sufficiently to warrant exercising the Incentive Options granted.

Other than service-based vesting conditions (if any), there are generally no additional performance criteria attached to any Incentive Options granted to KMP, as given the speculative nature of the Group's activities and the small management team responsible for its running, it is considered that the performance of the KMP and the performance and value of the Group are closely related.

The Company prohibits executives entering into arrangements to limit their exposure to Incentive Options and Performance Rights granted as part of their remuneration package.

During the financial year, no Incentive Options were granted to KMP and key employees. No Incentive Options were exercised by KMP during the financial year. No Incentive Options previously granted to KMP lapsed during the financial year.

During the year and following the LFA with LCM being signed, the Company established a Management Incentive Program ("MIP") which is a LTIP to retain key company personnel who have important historical information and knowledge to contribute towards the Claim. The MIP provides that if the Claim is successful and the Company receives damages proceeds, 6% of these proceeds will be directed to the MIP for distribution to its participants. The MIP requires that each participant must satisfy specific Claim related duties and if they do so, each participant may be entitled to a pre-defined percentage of the proceeds received by the MIP. In this regard, of the 6% of any future Claim proceeds, Mr Stoikovich (or his nominee personal services entity) will be entitled to 30% of the MIP distribution (i.e. 30% of the 6% Claim proceeds), Mr Kersey (or his nominee personal services entity) will be entitled to 20% of the MIP distribution (i.e. 20% of the 6% Claim proceeds), Mr Pearce and Mr Browne will each be entitled to 7.5% of the MIP distribution (i.e. 7.5% of the 6% Claim proceeds). The remaining 35% of the MIP distribution has been allocated to other key staff who will contribute to the Claim.

Non-Executive Director Remuneration

The Board's policy is for fees to Non-Executive Directors to be no greater than market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and responsibilities. Given the current size, nature and risks of the Company, Incentive Options may also be used to attract and retain Non-Executive Directors. The Board determines payments to the Non-Executive Directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required.

The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to Non-Executive Directors is subject to approval by shareholders at a General Meeting. Director's fees paid to Non-Executive Directors accrue on a daily basis. Fees for Non-Executive Directors are not linked to the performance of the economic entity. However, to align Directors' interests with shareholder interests, the Directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company and given the current size, nature and opportunities of the Company, Non-Executive Directors may receive Incentive Options in order to secure and retain their services.

Fees for the Chairman were set at $36,000 per annum (2020: $36,000) (excluding post-employment benefits).

Fees for Non-Executive Directors' were set at $20,000 per annum (2020: $20,000) (excluding post-employment benefits). These fees cover main board activities only. Non-Executive Directors may receive additional remuneration for other services provided to the Company, including but not limited to, membership of committees.

During the 2021 financial year, no Incentive Options or Performance Rights were granted to Non-Executive Directors.

The Company prohibits Non-Executive Directors entering into arrangements to limit their exposure to Incentive Options granted as part of their remuneration package.

Relationship between Remuneration of KMP and Shareholder Wealth

During the Company's exploration and development phases of its business, the Board anticipates that the Company will retain earnings (if any) and other cash resources for the exploration and development of its resource projects. Accordingly, the Company does not currently have a policy with respect to the payment of dividends and returns of capital. Therefore, there was no relationship between the Board's policy for determining, or in relation to, the nature and amount of remuneration of KMP and dividends paid and returns of capital by the Company during the current and previous four financial years.

The Board did not determine, and in relation to, the nature and amount of remuneration of the KMP by reference to changes in the price at which shares in the Company traded between the beginning and end of the current and the previous four financial years. Discretionary annual cash incentive payments are based upon achieving various non-financial key performance indicators as detailed under "Performance Based Remuneration - Short Term Incentive" and are not based on share price or earnings. However, as noted above, certain KMP may receive Incentive Options in the future which generally will be of greater value to KMP if the value of the Company's shares increases sufficiently to warrant exercising the Incentive Options.

Relationship between Remuneration of KMP and Earnings

As discussed above, the Company is currently undertaking exploration and development activities, and does not expect to be undertaking profitable operations (other than by way of material asset sales, none of which is currently planned) until sometime after the successful commercialisation, production and sales of commodities from one or more of its projects. Accordingly, the Board does not consider earnings during the current and previous four financial years when determining, and in relation to, the nature and amount of remuneration of KMP.
