Scott Perry, as a Non-Executive Director and Chair of the Audit Committee of the Company, and
an update on the material employment terms for Executive Chair Mr. Matthew (Matt) Fifield.
Mr. Perry’s appointment draws on more than 25 years of distinguished leadership within the

CFO appointments, and as a board member of the World Gold Council, where he served as Chair
of the Audit Committee from 2015-2021.
Mr. Fifield said: “We’re excited to have Scott join the Cyprium team. Scott brings highly relevant
operating and governance experience to our growing company and has a deep background in
strong financial stewardship.”
Commenting on his appointment Mr. Perry said: “I am delighted to join Cyprium, which is quickly
advancing one of the most exciting brownfields copper projects in Australia. I look forward to
contributing to the Company’s development as it continues to execute against its strategy and
fast-track the recommencement of mining operations at Nifty.”
“As we work to build the Company into its fullest expression, expect us to continue to add
outstanding team members to support the progress of Nifty from study through to execution
phase," Mr. Fifield concluded.
Executive Chair Update
On 16 February 2024, Mr. Fifield assumed the role of Executive Chair. In line with that
announcement, and with ASX Listing Rule 3.16.4, the Company wishes to provide an update on
the remuneration package for Mr. Fifield, the material terms of which are outlined in the Appendix
to this announcement.
The revised remuneration structure is in recognition of the time commitment and contribution that
Mr. Fifield has and is making to the Company since his appointment as Executive Chair. The
Board has conducted a comprehensive benchmarking survey of comparative remuneration
frameworks and determined that the new compensation package is both fair and aligned with the
extensive responsibilities and current market conditions for executive roles of this nature. The
remuneration will replace directors’ fees that are currently paid to Mr. Fifield.
