Of course, gold production is just a link in the chain for Northern Star. As we have always maintained, the ultimate objective is to ma(cid:91)imise financial returns while adhering to our ESG policies. The Pogo acquisition speaks volumes about Northern Star, the Company’s commercial strategy, its approach to investing in assets and its commitment to the highest environmental, social and governance (ESG) standards. At every level, Pogo meets or exceeds our requirements and illustrates how the right merger and ac(cid:84)uisition activit(cid:92) can create significant value for investors and other stakeholders alike. Pogo represented a textbook opportunity to combine Northern Star’s highly regarded operational skills with a Tier-1 gold deposit in a Tier-1 location. It is the perfect recipe. I am delighted to report that the widespread reforms we are introducing at the mine are already generating strong results, as evidenced by rising productivity, increasing production and falling costs. There is unquestionably more to be done on these fronts. But we are only nine months into what we said at the outset would be an 18-month process. The world-class nature of Pogo is demonstrated by the huge exploration success we have enjoyed in such a short time. With just six months of drilling, we have generated a maiden JORC Reserve of 1.5 million ounces. And the JORC Resource has been increased 43 per cent to 5.95Moz at the highly impressive grade of 9.6gpt. (cid:58)e(cid:519)ve al(cid:90)a(cid:92)s defined a (cid:55)ier(cid:16)(cid:20) asset as one (cid:90)hich is capa(cid:69)le of producing ~300,000oz a year for 10 years. The operational results to date, the (cid:69)enefits (cid:90)e are seeing from our change program and the significant e(cid:91)ploration success alread(cid:92) (cid:565)o(cid:90)ing through sho(cid:90) we are well on track to establishing that platform at Pogo. Pogo is forecast to produce 200,000oz-240,000oz in the 12 months to 30 June, 2020. Importantly, production in the second half of the year is forecast to be in the range of 120,000oz- 140,000oz, further demonstrating the highly favourable trends being seen as we implement our operating model. (cid:51)ogo is still a (cid:90)ork in progress(cid:17) (cid:37)ut the (cid:69)enefits for our Shareholders were clear from the time of the acquisition, as shown by the fact that we raised A$175 million at A$6.70 a share in a placement to help fund the acquisition. In late July 2019, Northern Star shares traded at a record closing price of A$13.97. In times of a strong gold price, much is often made of rising production and total revenues. But all too often in the gold industr(cid:92), increases in these figures don(cid:519)t lead to increases in cash in the bank. Northern Star’s strong performance in this regard is highlighted by the fact that our cash and investments rose by A$73 million to A$361 million in the recent June quarter alone. And this increase came despite paying A$38 million in dividends and A$22 million in tax. This demonstrates the exceptional cash-generating capacity of our business. It also demonstrates Northern Star’s overall financial strength, (cid:90)ith no de(cid:69)t, consistent dividends e(cid:84)ual to (cid:25) per cent of our annual revenue, the ability to invest in organic gro(cid:90)th and outstanding free cash(cid:565)o(cid:90) generation(cid:17) (cid:55)he com(cid:69)ination of this strong financial position and our commitment to operating only in Tier-1 locations enables Northern Star to comply with some of the most ambitious ESG requirements in our industry. There is no doubt that Tier-1 locations provide a far preferable environment in which to meet our (cid:40)(cid:54)(cid:42) filters compared (cid:90)ith so man(cid:92) other parts of the (cid:90)orld(cid:17) In conclusion, it has been another stellar year for your Company. We acquired our third major operating asset and we have made huge strides in applying our expertise and systems to help unlock its full value. Our Australian operations are at the top of their game and our balance sheet is in outstanding shape. So much of the credit for these achievements must go to our highl(cid:92) talented and committed management team, sta(cid:909) and contractors. This is ultimately a people business. And our people are second to none. On behalf of the Board, a huge thank you for your hard work over the past year. I would also like to thank our Shareholders for the enormous support we have received, particularly in relation to Pogo. It is very comforting to kno(cid:90) that our (cid:54)hareholders are firml(cid:92) (cid:69)ehind the Company when we are making an investment of that scale and nature. I look forward to reporting to you throughout what I expect will be another highly successful year for Northern Star. While we are delighted with the progress at Pogo, we are in the enviable position of being able to invest in our new asset knowing that our Australian mines are performing extremely well, especially during a time of record-high Australian gold prices. Yours faithfully The Jundee and Kalgoorlie operations sold a combined 639,243oz at all-in sustaining cost of A$1,167/oz (US$817/oz) in the past financial (cid:92)ear, achieving the top end of the (cid:25)(cid:19)(cid:19),(cid:19)(cid:19)(cid:19)o(cid:93)(cid:16)(cid:25)(cid:23)(cid:19),(cid:19)(cid:19)(cid:19)o(cid:93) guidance range.

And our people are second to none.” 8 Safety Safety Measures Lead Indicators are a positive initiative to measure and provide focus on future safety performances across the business and improve the safety culture amongst our workers. At Northern Star we have shifted our focus by using Lead Indicators to drive continuous improvement. A key performance indicator driven by these (cid:47)ead Indicators is the significant reduction in in(cid:77)ur(cid:92) statistics(cid:17) (cid:43)(cid:68)(cid:93)(cid:68)r(cid:71) (cid:918)(cid:71)ent(cid:76)fi(cid:70)(cid:68)t(cid:76)(cid:82)n (cid:68)n(cid:71) (cid:48)(cid:68)n(cid:68)(cid:74)e(cid:80)ent - key to identifying hazards and putting e(cid:909)ective controls in place to reduce the likelihood of harm to people, the environment and property.

Task Observations - a formal process where workers are observed completing a specific task to ensure all aspects are performed in the correct manner. Task Observations are integral and allow us to detect at risk acts, procedures, job hazard analysis and standards before they result in an incident occurring, as well as recognise safe acts made by workers. Active Field Leadership - allows managers and supervisors to assess and measure the e(cid:909)ectiveness of implemented ha(cid:93)ard controls in the field (cid:90)hilst providing guidance and leadership(cid:17) Inspections - a formal process allowing us to identify hazards in the (cid:90)orkplace and measure ho(cid:90) e(cid:909)ectivel(cid:92) ha(cid:93)ards are (cid:69)eing managed in continuously changing conditions.

In the last 12 months we have worked tirelessly to build an internal structure to support our (cid:38)ertificate III in (cid:48)ine (cid:40)mergenc(cid:92) (cid:53)esponse and (cid:53)escue in Australia. (cid:55)he training o(cid:909)ers a holistic vie(cid:90) of all aspects of emergenc(cid:92) rescue from fighting (cid:90)ildfire to road crash rescue, the a(cid:69)ilit(cid:92) to search and rescue underground, respond to aviation incidents and provide emergenc(cid:92) medical first response(cid:17) We strive for excellence and have participated in several mines rescue events, committing to developing the emergency response skills and leadership capabilities within our team. We attended the Mining Emergency Response Competition (MERC) – Surface, in Western Australia this year (as pictured), and achieved overall ranking placed second. This has been a great achievement for the team but also an acknowledgment that we are developing team capabilities to ensure we are prepared to respond to any incident. The surface and underground competitions always test our ability to work as a unit, the scenarios are very realistic and highlight most emergency situations that could potentially occur. To support our emergency services, it has been our goal to establish strong communication channels between sites and management to ensure we have a supportive and positive relationship well before a critical incident. Our leaders have participated in world-class training on crisis and emergency management. From business as usual to emergency response, emergency management, strategic planning to crisis management, we have developed strong leadership on sites to enable resilience and understanding of impacts and requirements in all roles across operations. Despite having operations across two continents our preparedness empo(cid:90)ers us to manage our risks (cid:90)ith kno(cid:90)ledge and confidence, knowing that we can support our employees at any site. SAFETY It matters and starts with you. TEAMWORK Together we can. ACCOUNTABILITY The responsibility lies with you. RESPECT To get it you must give it. RESULTS We deliver on our promises. STARR It’s what we stand for. Training (cid:55)as(cid:78) (cid:54)(cid:83)ecific (cid:55)raining (cid:55)ask specific training across the (cid:69)usiness has (cid:69)een mapped to the relevant National Standard in Australia, enabling employees to cross– pollinate across our sites, gaining experience and knowledge with minimal disruption to our business operations. Interactive computer-based training programs have been designed specificall(cid:92) for plant operators and supervisors(cid:17) (cid:55)he material is process plant specific and covers the characteristics of all unit operations, including safety and procedural. This includes critical process variables, control loops and interlocks, and alarm response requirements. The interactive program is available through eLearning. In the past year, employees have attained a total of 13,660 task-based competencies. These competencies were either newly achieved or refreshed. Incident Investigation “By focusing on controls Highly specialised, tailor-made incident investigation training continued across the business to improve and upskill the workforce.

This can lead to improved safety, reduced damage and better productivity. 6.3% of our employees were trained across 5 sites and 2 continents during FY19. Internal Auditor Training Internal auditor training was introduced to improve auditing skills in relation to safety, across the business. Our internal auditors can no(cid:90) perform an e(cid:909)ective, value(cid:16)adding audit against the (cid:38)ompan(cid:92)(cid:519)s standards and processes in relation to safety. 10 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | PEOPL E & CULTUR E 11 People & Culture Culture In (cid:41)e(cid:69)ruar(cid:92) (cid:21)(cid:19)(cid:20)(cid:28) (cid:90)e conducted our first engagement and culture survey, followed by direct employee feedback sessions across all sites. As part of the recommendations and areas of focus, an Employee Experience position was formed to ensure consistent, aligned experiences of stakeholders across all Northern Star operations. Underpinned by our STARR Core Values, the culture program is focused on achieving a ‘One Team’ approach. People Performance Northern Star’s expansion into North America has only strengthened our belief that our people, values and culture are at the heart of our success. The appointment of an Executive Manager – Capability (cid:9) (cid:38)ulture further re(cid:565)ected this commitment (cid:90)ithin the (cid:69)usiness and resulted in a number of key developments. This role allows a streamlined focus on organisational culture, attraction, retention, development, talent identification, mental health and (cid:90)ell(cid:69)eing(cid:17) (cid:36)fter a significant (cid:92)ear of gro(cid:90)th, as at (cid:22)(cid:19) (cid:45)une (cid:21)(cid:19)(cid:20)(cid:28) (cid:49)orthern (cid:54)tar employed 1,743 people across all sites. This includes an increase of 6% in graduates and 68% in apprentices. Mental Health & Wellness FY19 saw the launch of Mindsight, our purpose designed mental health and wellness program. Mental health is one of the most significant issues impacting society and the communities in which we live. This has been highlighted by the impact of FIFO Work Practices Mental Health Inquiry undertaken by the Western Australian Government. At the core of Mindsight, Northern Star is setting a target for 20% of our workforce to be accredited in Mental Health First Aid by 2020 to provide critical support, understanding and referral to colleagues, families and community members. Three months into the launch of the program at 30 June 2019, we have trained 149 employees (8.5% of our workforce) with strong demand across all sites to participate in the training. Regular wellness tips, TelePsych assessments, our Employee Assistance Program and manager training form part of Mindsight. Leadership Development & Talent ID Program Northern Star launched a pilot Talent ID program with 120 employees. Psychometric assessments incorporating personality, key drivers, critical reasoning, and other technical and experience factors were combined to generate personalised development plans – fast tracking career growth and enabling succession mapping. This has been enhanced through an additional 5 tier leadership development program inclusive of agile decision making, people management, strategic thinking, and project and resource management.

Northern Star has a Mineral Resource base of 20.8 million ounces, and Ore Reserves of 5.4 million ounces, including a maiden Reserve at Pogo of 1.5Moz1. As the second largest Australian gold producer, Northern Star continues to deliver on its strategic objective of being a safe, quality gold company that delivers outstanding value to its Shareholders. During FY19, the Company sold 840,580 ounces of gold from its West Australian and Alaskan operations. Northern Star has a continued focus on organic growth of Resources and Reserves through highly successful exploration programs and by thoroughly appraising our existing mines to significantly extend their operating lives. The Company continues to advance exploration activities at Pogo, Jundee, Kalgoorlie and Tanami - see pages 20 and 21 of this Report for further details. In parallel, Northern Star is well positioned to continue to grow Resources and Reserves, production and free cashflow through investment in and acquisition of Tier-1 assets in Tier-1 jurisdictions. 1 As at 30 June 2019 - see ASX release of 1 August 2019. “The Northern Star business model delivers significant Shareholder returns - best in class returns.” – Luke Creagh Chief Operating Officer TABLE 1 MINE OPERATIONS REVIEW Measure Jundee Total Material Mined Total Material Milled Gold Grade Gold Recovery Gold Produced Gold Sold Revenue Cost of Sales Depreciation & Amortisation EBITDA tonnes tonnes grams/tonne % ounce ounce A$000's A$000's A$000's A$000's All in Sustaining Cost A$/ounce sold 2,092,558 2,207,099 4.6 90% 295,053 299,236 527,863 309,119 55,696 274,440 981 Kalgoorlie Operations 2,983,567 2,993,777 3.8 91% 334,527 340,007 620,245 513,032 141,939 249,149 1,330 Pogo^ Total*^ 783,505 796,318 8.1 89% 183,555 201,337 253,057 279,333 47,449 18,002 1,705 5,859,630 5,997,195 4.7 90% 813,134 840,580 1,401,165 1,101,484 245,084 541,591 1,296 FY19 Operations Northern Star operational performance for FY19 was delivered by our Australian assets, the Jundee and Kalgoorlie Operations; and our North American asset, the Pogo Operation located in Alaska, USA. Ownership of Pogo transferred to Northern Star on 28 September 2018, however financial benefit from the operation was effective from 1 July 2018. Our two development assets, the Tanami and Paulsens projects, continued with exploration activity throughout the year. During FY19, our three producing assets combined to sell a record 840,580koz at an AISC of A$1,296/oz, with our Australian assets achieving the top end of FY19 guidance with 639,243oz sold at an AISC of A$1,167/oz. Over the year, 6 million tonnes were milled at an average head grade of 4.7gpt Au for 813,133 ounces Au recovered. Unprocessed ore stocks available for mill feed at the end of FY19 contained 84,857 ounces Au. Gold in circuit at the end of FY19 totalled 21,753 ounces. These items are reflected in the accounts as ore stockpile and gold in circuit at cost, respectively. Jundee Operations produced and sold record ounces under Northern Star ownership at 295,053oz and 299,236oz respectively. Production was primarily from underground ore sources and was supported by the commencement of open pit mining at Ramone in the June quarter. It was a standout year of performance at Jundee with no Lost Time Injuries (LTIs), record underground tonnes mined (2.1Mt), record stope tonnes mined (1.5Mt) and record tonnes milled (2.2Mt). Kalgoorlie Operations continued its strong performance with FY19 achieving record production at the top end of guidance with 340,007oz sold at AISC of A$1,330oz. Production was delivered by the underground operations at Kanowna Belle, Kundana, EKJV and SKO; underpinned by outstanding infrastructure including processing capacity of 3.2Mtpa with two fully utilised process plants Kanowna Belle (2.0Mtpa) and Jubilee (1.2Mtpa). Since acquisition, Pogo has been transitioning to the Northern Star business model and results in FY19 reflected strong operational gains at all levels. Key changes over this period included a new development fleet for introduction of jumbo bolt and meshing techniques, transition to longhole stoping (LHS) methodology and increased diamond drilling to 8 underground drills. The implementation of the Northern Star business model continues in FY20, with Pogo on track to further improve productivity metrics to demonstrate a +1Mtpa production rate.

It is believed that the expectations reflected in these statements are reasonable but they may be affected by a variety of variables and changes in underlying assumptions which could cause actual results or trends to differ materially, including but not limited to price fluctuations, actual demand, currency fluctuations, drilling and production results, Resource and Reserve estimations, loss of market, industry competition, environmental risks, physical risks, legislative, fiscal and regulatory changes, economic and financial market conditions in various countries and regions, political risks, project delay or advancement, approvals and cost estimates. Profit For FY19, the Group reported a profit after tax of $154.7 million, a 20% reduction from FY18 (FY18: $194.1 million). Profit after tax for the Australian operations was $174.7 million and Pogo operations reported a loss after tax of $20.0 million. Revenue increased 45% to $1,401 million primarily driven by the average realised gold price per ounce being 4% higher (FY19: $1,764; FY18: $1,704) and a 37% increase in gold sold (FY19: 781,013oz (excludes September 18 quarter ounces for pogo); FY18: 570,110oz) driven by the acquisition of Pogo in September 2018. Cost of sales increased 77% to $1,101 million (FY18: $624 million) driven primarily by the acquisition of Pogo operations and increased production at the Australian operations which achieved record production during 2019 with a 12% increase in gold sold (FY19: 639,243oz; FY18: 570,110oz). Higher non-cash depreciation and amortisation charges were incurred during 2019 relating primarily to the finalisation of the purchase price allocation on the acquisition of Pogo operations and Kalgoorlie operations, which during 2019 included full year charges from South Kalgoorlie operations, which was acquired in April 2018. Finance charges were higher during 2019 (FY19: $11.6 million; FY18: $3.5 million) as the Company finalised a new credit facility. Group EBITDA was $479.7 million for the year ended 30 June 2019, which was an increase of 8% over the corresponding prior period. Finance costs increased by 234% (FY19: $11.6 million; FY18: $3.5 million) which was due to additional accretion charged on rehabilitation liabilities acquired from the Pogo acquisition and also additional finance charges on the Group’s financing facilities. An impairment charge of $9.9 million was recorded on exploration and evaluation assets (FY18: $11.8 million). Balance Sheet Current assets as at the 30 June 2019 decreased by 19% against the prior year balance date. The decrease was largely a result of cash and cash equivalents decreasing by $176.8 million following the completion of the Pogo acquisition, in addition the payment of $70.3 million in dividends during the year. Non-current assets increased by $531.2 million primarily from the acquisition of Pogo. A total of $40.3 million was added to exploration and evaluation assets through the Company’s continued investment in organic growth. Payments of $10.1 million for investments in associates and equity investments carried at fair value were made in the current period (FY18: $30.6 million). Current liabilities increased by 9.2% as at 30 June 2019 principally due equipment replacement at Pogo operations, which have been financed and non-current liabilities increased $115.1 million principally due to the recognition of a $75.2 million closure liability at Pogo on acquisition. During the year the Company Issued 26,119,402 shares at A$6.70 per share as part of Pogo acquisition. Cash Flow Cash flows from operating activities for the 12 months ended 30 June 2019 was $379.2 million which is $26.1 million higher than the previous financial year driven principally by increased revenues from higher gold sold and gold price received for the year. This was offset by higher payments to suppliers and employees which now includes Pogo operations. Cash flows from investing activities increased by 162% as a result of the $350.5 million Pogo acquisition in September 2018 (FY18: $17.5 million on South Kalgoorlie and Western Tanami acquisitions). In addition, payments for exploration and evaluation increased by $41.8 million (FY19: $87.2 million; FY18: $45.3 million), of which $18.8 million related to exploration at Pogo since acquisition and $20.0 million paid for an additional 15% interest in the Central Tanami Project. Cash flows from financing activities included proceeds from issue of shares of $177.4 million relating predominantly to the capital raising associated with the Pogo acquisition (FY18: $4.6 million) and dividends totalling $70.3 million (FY18: $63.3 million) paid to Shareholders. 20 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | OPER ATI ONS R EVIEW | EXPL ORAT ION 21 Exploration USA ALASKA AUSTRALIA Paraburdoo Halls Creek Wiluna Paraburdoo Kalgoorlie Coolgardie Wiluna PERTH Coolgardie Kalgoorlie PERTH Halls Creek Lajamanu ALICE SPRINGS Lajamanu Northern Star operates three concentrated operational centres – Jundee and Kalgoorlie in Western Australia, and Pogo in Alaska.

The composition of the Board is vital in discharging this duty. The Board’s composition is reviewed and assessed regularly by the Nomination Committee to ensure the Board is of a composition, size and with capacity to commit the time required to effectively discharge its responsibilities and duties. The Nomination Committee aims to ensure that an appropriate balance of skills, experience, expertise and diversity (of experience, thought, problem- solving approaches, age, gender, nationality, cultural background and perspective informed by life experience) is represented on the Board. This may result in a Non-Executive Director with a longer tenure remaining in office to bring that experience and depth of understanding to matters brought before the Board, or a Non-Executive Director having limited ASX Board experience but a significant executive career to draw from. The Board has devised a board skills matrix to measure hard skills that are considered relevant to the nature of the Company and industry in which it operates, and soft skills that are considered desirable for effective Directors. A skills gap analysis is undertaken in relation to the board skills matrix annually, to ensure that the skills included in the matrix, and the Board’s skills shown in the matrix results: • meet the current needs of the Company’s operations; • meet the evolving needs of the Company, as Company strategy is implemented and strategic emphasis or direction changes; and • are appropriate to meet the changing environment and corporate landscape in which the Company operates. To the extent a gap is identified in the Board’s skills, discussion follows on how and when to prioritise addressing the gap, and whether professional development initiatives can assist and or whether expanding the Board or Board renewal is the appropriate response. The review of the board skills matrix during the FY19 financial year: • concluded that no change to the selection of skills used in the matrix was warranted; and • revealed an opportunity to strengthen the Board’s technical skillset base, and with a wider scope of international experience where possible. The Company’s business as underground mining specialists expanded into the US during the financial year, with the acquisition of the Pogo mine in Alaska on 28 September 2018. The Company ran an international recruitment process during the financial year with the assistance of a specialist external recruitment consultant, culminating in the Company appointing two additional Directors on 1 July 2019 who have proven executive careers and subject matter expertise in engineering and project management (Australia and various other geographic locations). In addition, to enhance shareholder confidence in the Company’s corporate governance practices, the two new Directors appointed were both independent, bringing the number of independent Non-Executive Directors to six, balanced against the single non-independent Executive Director in the role of Executive Chairman. Shareholders will be asked to re-elect the new Directors at the 2019 Annual General Meeting. “The Nomination Committee aims to ensure that an appropriate balance of skills, experience, expertise and diversity (of experience, thought, problem-solving approaches, age, gender, nationality, cultural background and perspective informed by life experience) is represented on the Board.” – Hilary Macdonald General Counsel & Company Secretary Why Northern Star selected the skills in the Board Skills Matrix The following table explains what skills are considered by the Board to be important for the role of Director at Northern Star and why they therefore appear in the board skills matrix. Each of the Directors’ profiles on page 32 and 33 brings out the prominent skills held by each Director, in the context of the board skills matrix results. The Board has reviewed additional skills to add to the board skills matrix, such as tax risk management and compliance, and public policy and regulation, opting instead for the ability to bring in subject matter experts to advise the Board as needed. Each Director has self-assessed their skills and experience against the board skills matrix by giving a rating per skill of between 0 (for no applicable skills or experience) to 5 (expert skills and experience). 38 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | DIRECTOR S’ REPOR T 39 IMPORTANCE OF BOARD SKILL BOARD SKILL AND DESCRIPTION IMPORTANCE OF BOARD SKILL BOARD Directors’ Report TABLE 10 BOARD SKILLS MATRIX SKILL AND DESCRIPTION Executive leadership Evaluating the performance of senior management, overseeing strategic human capital planning, industrial relations, organisational change management programmes and sustainable success in business at a senior level.

HR & Workplace Relations Experience of a director related to workplace health and safety reporting and measurement, the importance of tracking near misses, and awareness of environment measurement and risk within Northern Star’s operations, provides a more informed platform for the Board to critically appraise safety statistics, and health and environmental risks faced by Northern Star. HSE A director’s awareness of the importance of digital technology to support Northern Star’s growth and drive competitive advantage in its underground and processing operations particularly, and knowledge and experience in use and governance of critical information technology, supports Northern Star’s drive for continuous improvement in exploration and production methods, safety performance and business systems. A director’s sound understanding of potential cyber risk exposure assists in prioritising risk mitigation steps and expenditure. Experience in the delivery of large-scale capital projects and expertise in project governance and risk management informs the Board when Northern Star is contemplating long term investment projects or large- scale capital investment. Given Northern Star’s share register composition, a director’s experience with equity and debt funding strategies, an understanding of local and overseas capital and debt markets, and experience in capital and debt raising and management and investor relations is key to the Board developing Northern Star’s strategy, and investor communications.

Since the acquisition of the Paulsens mine in 2010, Northern Star has delivered sector leading results by acquiring and investing in Tier-1 assets. To date this strategy has seen Northern Star deliver a total shareholder return (TSR) of 26,877% for its Shareholders.

This acquisition now puts the business in the enviable position of having three Tier-1 assets in Tier-1 jurisdictions and has propelled Northern Star to become the second largest listed gold producer on the Australian Securities Exchange. Our primary focus is to deliver similar returns to our Shareholders over the coming years. Northern Star continues to operate (cid:69)(cid:92) the mantra of (cid:69)eing a (cid:69)usiness first and a mining compan(cid:92) second. (cid:55)his strateg(cid:92) again in (cid:41)(cid:60)(cid:20)(cid:28) has delivered a further significant increase in value for its Shareholders through accretive organic and inorganic growth. Our strategy of balancing organic growth with well executed M&A has generated over A$7.2B of value for Shareholders since the first ac(cid:84)uisition in (cid:21)(cid:19)(cid:20)(cid:19), (cid:90)ith less than (cid:26)(cid:8) of this value uplift (cid:69)eing derived from equity issues. Performance Outcomes in FY19 In 2019, Northern Star continued to deliver strong results. Our people are responsible for driving and achieving these impressive results. The strong leadership and proven expertise of the Executive (cid:38)hairman and the (cid:38)hief (cid:40)(cid:91)ecutive (cid:50)(cid:605)cer in particular have (cid:69)een integral to sustained performance. The Company’s evolution since 2010 via organic growth and disciplined, selective acquisitions has built a diverse range of teams with operational and specialist expertise. The Board recognises that to continue this extraordinarily successful growth trajectory and to achieve its strategic objectives, Northern Star must continue to attract, motivate, retain and reward exceptional people who have accountability for all decisions and the accompanying risk management challenges, and whose interests are aligned with our Shareholders. Maintained focus on our culture and our key areas of performance is re(cid:565)ected in our safet(cid:92) and financial results for (cid:41)(cid:60)(cid:20)(cid:28)(cid:17) (cid:60)our (cid:37)oard believes that the remuneration outcomes for FY19 recognise the performance for FY19. Notwithstanding outstanding performance in many areas of the business, the total STI awarded to the KMP was 40% out of a total possible 70% for Company KPIs. Maximum individual KPI satisfaction (30%) was fully achieved. The Board did not exercise its discretion to vary the level of the FY19 STI award (positive or negative) when considering overall Shareholder value generated over the performance period. See pages 54 and 55 of this Report for further details of the STI performance targets and performance outcome. PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOT LTIFR reduced by During FY19, the Company continued to deliver strong performance against many but not all of the stretch targets.

The Northern Star business is driven by its STARR Core Values. Safety, Teamwork, Accountability, Respect and Results. Safety is central to our culture, and commitment to continual safety improvement is at the core of Northern Star. This importance is not lost on us and in CY18 saw a 75% reduction in the total recordable injury frequency rate (cid:11)(cid:55)(cid:53)I(cid:41)(cid:53)(cid:12) to (cid:22)(cid:17)(cid:26), this figure sitting (cid:25)(cid:21)(cid:8) (cid:69)elo(cid:90) the sector average of 9.6, with further reduction to 3.3 during the 6-month period to 30 June 2019.

This is above the industry average of 16%1. The FY19 STI target for Production was only partially achieved, as despite the Australian operations achieving the top end of production guidance, Pogo fell short due to delays in the delivery of new plant and e(cid:84)uipment (cid:11)part of our significant capital investment since acquiring control on 28 September 2018), and the implementation of new mining methods.

Long Term Incentives No LTI grant was made in FY19. FY20 Remuneration decisions The Northern Star Board recognises that the remuneration framework is key to promoting engagement and accountability, and encouraging and rewarding appropriate behaviours, in line with our STARR Core Values. To ensure that the framework continues to support the achievement of our strategy, the Board undertook a comprehensive Company-wide review of the framework during 2019, taking the following into account: • (cid:40)(cid:91)ecutive (cid:46)(cid:48)(cid:51) (cid:11)and other senior e(cid:91)ecutive(cid:12) fi(cid:91)ed and varia(cid:69)le remuneration has not changed since (cid:21)(cid:19)(cid:20)(cid:25)(cid:30) • (cid:55)here has (cid:69)een significant organic and inorganic gro(cid:90)th in the Company’s operations and a large increase in size and scale of the business, expanding the KMP and senior leadership team’s responsi(cid:69)ilities and risk management (cid:69)ase(cid:30) • Acquiring Pogo has also deepened the complexity of the Company’s business.

The fact that KMP renumeration has not changed since 2016 and that during that time the size and complexity of the business has materially increased, has meant that significant changes are re(cid:84)uired to (cid:46)(cid:48)(cid:51) remuneration to ensure our remuneration policy objectives are met, as detailed in this Report. Benchmarking and structuring advice from external remuneration advisers indicated that the senior leadership team including the KMP remuneration at maximum performance for FY19 was well below the Company’s target of 75th percentile when performance meets stretch targets. When developing the changes to the Executive KMP remuneration framework, the Remuneration Committee has taken into account market (cid:69)enchmark data, significant e(cid:91)ternal labour demand pressure, the poaching risk and competition for our e(cid:91)ceptional people, and the (cid:38)ompan(cid:92)(cid:519)s financial strength and success delivered by employees to date.

FIXED REMUNERATION (TFR) SHORT TERM INCENTIVES (STI) LONG TERM INCENTIVES (LTI) To provide a base level of remuneration which is both appropriate for the responsibility of the position and competitive in the market for the individual’s experience and value to the Company. To provide an annual, market competitive cash incentive to reward high performing, engaged Executive KMP incorporating performance metrics aligned with the creation of Shareholder wealth. This is to ensure executives have their eye on the ball for the Company’s near-term deliverables. To focus Executive KMP on drivers of Shareholder value over a three- year period from the single grant of performance rights in FY17, to retain executive KMP and motivate with market competitive incentives to pursue the long- term growth and success in line with the Company’s strategy, vision and mission. Fixed remuneration is set at a level that takes into account the role responsibilities and individual capabilities, benchmarked against market data for comparable roles in a similar industry sector and with a similar market capitalisation. STI opportunity is based on a % of TREM10 having regard to market practice for roles and service period at the time of award, with a range of percentages. The Remuneration Committee is responsible for assessing performance against KPIs and determining the STI to be awarded. LTIs promote alignment with long term Company performance over three years using performance metrics aligned with Shareholder returns. The Remuneration Committee is responsible for assessing performance against these metrics and determining the LTI to be awarded. Purpose Northern Star approach Annual performance review conducted by the CEO and/or Remuneration Committee and periodic remuneration reviews are conducted as appropriate, benchmarked against market data for comparable roles in a similar industry sector and with similar market capitalisation. Executive KMP remuneration for FY19 Assessment The mix and level of fixed and variable performance-based remuneration for the Executive KMP is set with the objective of: • attracting and retaining high performing employees; and • driving superior performance and achievement of the Company’s strategic objectives. The remuneration mix is weighted towards variable remuneration awarded in equity, to motivate, focus and reward for achievement of strategic objectives and to ensure alignment with Shareholders. An additional cash bonus was paid during the year to recognise the significant additional work undertaken and the successful completion of the Pogo acquisition. Further details about the Pogo Acquisition and Completion Bonus are provided on page 56. Pages 58 - 63 of this Report gives details of the review of Executive KMP remuneration in FY20 conducted by the Remuneration Committee to date, to ensure the remuneration framework continues to meet its objectives. Fixed remuneration comprises cash salary and direct costs of providing employee benefits, including superannuation, office car parking, private health insurance11, salary continuance insurance12, deemed premiums paid for D&O Insurance and FBT. Delivery Balanced scorecard using a combination of Company (financial and non-financial) and individual performance measures: • Safety – TRIFR (15%) • Financial – NPAT (10%) • Financial – production Koz (25%) • Financial – production costs AISC/oz (10%) • Social licence – environment and social outcomes; gender diversity (10%) • Personal objectives (30%) Threshold, target and in some cases, maximum (stretch) targets are set for each performance measure to drive desired business and individual outcomes. The annual budget generally forms the basis for target performance. Individual performance measures for the Executive KMP are personal stretch targets applicable to their role, and are set to reflect business priorities. The relative weightings of each performance measure also depend on the Company’s strategic goals. Performance period – one year. 100% of STI outcomes paid in cash after the end of the financial year. Board retains discretion over award and forfeiture of STIs for Executive KMP and other employees, including upon termination of employment. Discretion is only exercised by the Board in exceptional circumstances, in which case the use of discretion and the impact is clearly disclosed in the Company’s relevant remuneration report. Vesting is subject to meeting Total Shareholder Return measures (against an industry specific peer group) and long- term safety performance: • Financial – Absolute TSR (60%) • Financial – Relative TSR (20%) • Safety – LTIFR (20%) The performance measures have been set to align with the long-term goals and performance of Northern Star. The majority of the LTI is aimed at generating strong Shareholder returns. Safety is the other performance measure for LTI, as this is the Company’s number one STARR Core Value. A Safety performance measure is included for both the LTI and STI to ensure that the Executive Chairman’s variable remuneration included a Safety-related performance component (as the Executive Chairman was not eligible to receive an STI). Performance period – three years. Awards of performance rights. Each performance right when vested is convertible into one fully paid Share. Shares resulting from vested performance rights which are exercised are: • 50% unrestricted; • 25% subject to 1-year holding lock; • 25% subject to 2-year holding lock. Performance rights do not entitle the holder to receive dividends. Board retains discretion to waive forfeiture upon termination of employment, in appropriate circumstances. Discretion is only exercised by the Board in exceptional circumstances, in which case the use of discretion and the impact is clearly disclosed in the Company’s relevant remuneration report. 10 TREM means total remuneration comprising base salary and superannuation (only) 11 All permanent Northern Star employees (other than those on probation) receive private health insurance benefits 12 All permanent Northern Star employees receive salary continuance insurance 52 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | REMUNER ATI ON REPOR T 53 Remuneration Report Executive KMP realised remuneration for FY19 (voluntary, face value disclosure) Table 15 below discloses cash remuneration paid and equity vested (on a face value basis) to Executive KMP in FY19 (compared to FY18).

TFR comprises gross base salary, superannuation capped at $30,000, and includes non-monetary benefits provided by the Company, such as office car parking bay, the deemed premiums for Directors and Officers Indemnity insurance, private health insurance, salary continuance insurance, and the applicable fringe benefits tax paid on these non-monetary benefits. STI is Short Term Incentive awards paid in cash during the relevant financial year. The STI paid in FY19 was the FY18 STI award (paid in August 2018). The STI paid in FY18 was the FY17 STI award (paid in August 2017). The Executive Chairman is ineligible for STI awards. LTI is the face value at grant date of the Long Term Incentive awards that vested during the relevant financial year. The LTI performance shares that vested in FY19 were the FY16 LTI performance shares issued on 9 July 2015, measured on 30 June 2018 (which vested on 20 July 2018). The LTI performance shares that vested in FY18 were the FY15 LTI performance shares issued on 9 October 2014, measured on 30 June 2017 (which vested on 23 August 2017). Pogo Bonus is the Pogo Acquisition & Completion Bonus, being a one-off discretionary cash bonus awarded to employees that were critical to the Company securing the Pogo operations, which included the Executive KMP, to reflect the significant workload, commitment and acumen involved in the assessment, negotiation and completion of the acquisition. Performance shares price growth is the increase in value over the three year performance period for the FY16 LTI performance shares (which vested during FY19) and for the FY15 performance shares (which vested during FY18), calculated as the difference between the face value at the grant date and the face value at the vesting date, using a 5-day VWAP – to demonstrate the alignment of the LTIs with the growth in Shareholder wealth. 54 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | REMUNER ATI ON REPOR T 55 Remuneration Report Short Term Incentives – performance against STI Targets for FY19 COMPANY TARGETS WEIGHT TOTAL BY OPERATION DESCRIPTION OF THRESHOLD AND MAXIMUM Achieve TRIFR of 7.5 or less (50%) Achieve TRIFR of 5 or less (100% at 5, pro rata) OUTCOME DESCRIPTION OF PERFORMANCE OUTCOME THRESHOLD MAXIMUM TRIFR of 3.3 was achieved.

Increased the level of assessment in the business in relation to culture and capability with the hire of an executive manager to drive gap analysis and improvements in people performance, attraction and retention with commensurate benefits in safety, personnel retention and results. Monthly site visits to Pogo did not compromise outstanding achievements in oversight for the Kalgoorlie and Jundee operations in terms of productivity and capability, and safety achievements across the business. Successful post completion integration of Pogo; business improvements made simultaneously at Pogo post completion; managing the skillset analysis and training needs of incumbent Pogo personnel and sourcing experienced trainers to boost Pogo capability for increased productivity, automation training, and replacing the incumbent underground mining services contractor at Pogo, changes to technical business model at Pogo, involving monthly site visits to Pogo which did not impact on level of support and site presence at the Kalgoorlie and Jundee operations. Focused efforts on post completion Pogo integration with a rapid conversion of Pogo Resources and Reserves to JORC 2012 standard within a short timeframe in order to enhance the understanding of the Pogo potential and growth opportunities. Established growth drilling programmes at Pogo; implementation of geological control standards at Pogo and significantly improving geological practices and disciplines at Pogo, whilst overseeing Kalgoorlie and Jundee growth. Assumed CFO role seamlessly, with post completion work at Pogo not derogating from the quality of the Finance team’s support of the Group’s Kalgoorlie and Jundee operations. Post completion Pogo achievements beyond business as usual duties included replacement of existing business systems at Pogo with a superior product; establishing new banking relationships and significant equipment lease arrangements in the US. Improving standards of oversight and governance over employee pension plan savings of US$52M; achieving significant savings following a strategic review of material procurement contracts and negotiations with key Pogo suppliers. Improving costs control as a result of recruiting to increase the subject matter expert capabilities within the Finance team particularly in relation to internal tax advisory capability. Performance over and above ordinary duties included delivery of the dual role, with improved Board governance support and proxy adviser engagement, and post completion Pogo transaction integration. This involved upskilling in US State and Federal safety, corporations and employment legislation, tenure management in Alaska; working with the Pogo safety, HR, geological, procurement, environmental departments and suppliers in transitioning Pogo to Northern Star’s policies and procedures to reflect US State and Federal law and customary practices. Settlement of Pogo vendors’ legacy litigation matters on appropriate terms within 6 months of acquiring Pogo, involving site visits to Pogo and numerous meetings in the US with the Pogo vendors’ multiple law firms for a seamless handover of all legal matters. This enhanced the business’ understanding of its legal responsibilities in the US without compromising the quality and timing of business as usual legal advisory work to the Jundee and Kalgoorlie operations.

CHART 11 FINAL STI OUTCOMES FOR FY19 (PAID IN AUGUST 2019)17 The preceding table details the extraordinary tasks and achievements of the Executive KMP in the period following completion of the Pogo acquisition, from 28 September 2018 to 30 June 2019, which were over and above the ordinary duties of the Executive KMP in relation to the business. $151,900 Stuart Tonkin Chief Executive Officer $63,551 Luke Creagh Chief Operating Officer $93,100 Michael Mulroney Chief Geological Officer $53,871 Ryan Gurner Chief Financial Officer $62,125 Hilary Macdonald General Counsel & Company Secretary 17 Executive Chairman is not eligible to receive an STI Pogo Completion Bonus Paid In FY19 STI Amount ($) On 30 August 2018 Northern Star announced its intention to acquire the high-grade 4.1Moz Pogo underground gold mine in Alaska for US$260.3M (A$360.4M). It was further announced that completion of the transaction was to occur within a month of the acquisition announcement. This would allow the mine operations to be substantially overhauled, mine plans developed, exploration to increase as soon as possible, and conversion of non-JORC Code resources and reserves to JORC 2012 Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves, to allow improvements in production and gold sales, and transparency in reporting on progress at Pogo, for the benefit of Shareholders, as quickly as possible. Our people who faced significant challenges including operational, legal, compliance, cultural and people flexibility challenges, managed to have the transaction completed within the timeframe foreshadowed to the market, on 28 September 2018. This was a phenomenal achievement, as it was a highly ambitious target by any company’s standards. Our track record in having a short timeline between execution of sale agreement and completion of the deal, was a point of advantage in the vendor’s selection of Northern Star as the successful buyer over a large field of competition bidding for the Pogo mine. The expedited process allowed Northern Star to secure the purchase of the asset for its Shareholders. In recognition of the significant value delivered to Shareholders in the accelerated execution of the transaction, the Board decided to award those involved a cash bonus. It is also worth noting that the transaction generated A$711M in value on the day of announcement for Shareholders. The total Pogo Acquisition & Completion Bonus paid to employees heavily involved in the assessment, negotiation and completion of the Pogo acquisition was A$656,408 or 0.1% of the uplift on the first day of trading post-announcement. Bonuses paid to KMP and the total of bonuses paid to other employees is indicated in the table below.

LTI granted in FY17 A single tranche of performance rights21 was granted to each of the Executive KMP (and other senior management) under the Company’s FY17 Long Term Incentive Plan during FY17, which remain subject to vesting upon satisfaction of performance hurdles over a three- year performance period. The performance period for the safety performance hurdle ended on 30 June 2019 and has been satisfied. The performance hurdles for Absolute and Relative TSR will be assessed on 16 October 2019. An ASX release will communicate the outcome to Shareholders, in a transparent manner, for their information. Vesting of the LTIs will occur subject to achievement of the performance hurdles set out in the following table. Upon vesting the employee may give the Company an exercise notice and the corresponding number of Shares will be issued to the employee. No additional service condition applies after vesting. After vesting and following delivery of an exercise notice by the employee to the Company no later than 21 December 2022: • 50% of the resulting Shares will have no disposal restrictions; • 25% of the resulting Shares will be restricted from disposal for 12 months; and • 25% of the resulting Shares will be restricted from disposal for 24 months.

Shareholders approved the 2017 Long Term Incentive Plan, and in relation to the Executive Chairman, the performance hurdles and disposal restrictions at the 2016 Annual General Meeting. The same performance hurdles and disposal restrictions are applicable to the other members of the Executive KMP (and other senior management employees). On vesting, each performance right will automatically convert into one fully paid ordinary Share. The performance rights do not carry any voting rights or rights to receive a dividend prior to being exercised. If an executive KMP ceases employment before the performance rights vest, the rights will be forfeited, except in limited circumstances that are approved by the Board on a case-by-case basis having regard to the employee’s role, the length of the remaining performance period and other factors leading to the exit of the employee from the Company. 22 Peer group comprises the following ASX, LSE and TSX companies: Acacia Mining PLC, Alacer Gold Corp, Alamos Gold Inc, B2Gold Corp, Centamin PLC, Centerra Gold Inc, Detour Gold Corp, Dundee Precious Metals Inc, Endeavour Mining Corp, Eldorado Gold Corp, Evolution Mining Ltd, Gold Fields Limited, IAMGOLD Corp, New Gold Inc, OceanaGold Corp, Regis Resources Limited, Resolute Mining Limited, Saracen Mineral Holdings Ltd, SEMAFO Inc, selected on the basis of the Company’s operations and market capitalisation. 58 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | REMUNER ATI ON REPOR T 59 Remuneration Report FY20 remuneration framework – key changes from FY19 Your Board acknowledges that the remuneration framework is key to promoting engagement, retention, accountability, encouraging and rewarding appropriate behaviours, and discouraging inappropriate behaviours, in line with our STARR Core Values. To ensure that Northern Star’s remuneration framework continues to support the achievement of Northern Star’s strategy, the Board undertook a comprehensive review in 2019, taking into account: • Executive KMP (and other senior management) fixed and variable remuneration has not changed since 2016; • The Company’s financial and non-financial performance and growth in the scale of its operations to include Pogo in Alaska. • The added complexity of now operating in multiple jurisdictions, and the associated challenges, for example in travel time, significant time commitments on site for all of the KMP and senior leadership team during the post completion integration phase which is ongoing; corporate and tax compliance, safety and employment statutory regimes and practices, and the regulatory framework in which we now operate; • Our high performing employees are operating in an increasingly tight and competitive labour market for their proven skills; and • The upcoming expiry of the 2016 AGM approval under the ASX Listing Rules for the existing LTI plan, and the need for an appropriate replacement incentive plan to incentivise, motivate and retain Executive KMP (and other senior management employees). The FY20 Incentive Plan will be put to Shareholders for approval together with the proposed grants of incentives to the Executive Chairman at the Annual General Meeting to be held in November 2019. No incentives will be granted under the FY20 Incentive Plan until after the Annual General Meeting. “Northern Star’s remuneration framework continues to support the achievement of Northern Star’s strategy....” – Nick Cernotta Non-Executive Director and Chairperson Remuneration Committee The structure of the FY20 Incentive Plan and framework was designed to reflect the Company’s long-term strategy and the human capital needs of the business to deliver strategy. This is imperative to retain and incentivise the Company’s high-performance team and to drive the link between the Executive KMP remuneration, the Company’s performance and delivery of long term Shareholder value. This section of the Report explains the FY20 remuneration framework and the rationale for the changes made to the FY19 remuneration framework. The Board have received guidance and relevant industry benchmarking and structuring advice from external remuneration advisers (detailed on page 65 of this Report), to ensure that Executive KMP and other senior executives are appropriately motivated and aligned to Shareholders’ interests.

The objectives are measurable and targets designed to motivate and influence behaviours, with weighting towards financial metrics. 1 year No change. The 50% of the STI that is delivered in performance rights is subject to a one year escrow. Requires STI performance rights to be held for longer. Change of Control Board discretion to award • Automatic vesting on a takeover bid to acquire 50% or more of the issued capital and the takeover bid becomes unconditional • Scheme of Arrangement to be treated similarly, if Company is the entity the subject of the Scheme The Board retains discretion as to when to apply Clawback and Malus, such as in instances of: • Material financial misstatements;25 • Major negligence • Significant legal, regulatory and/or policy non-compliance • Significant harmful act by an individual in which case all employee’s Performance Rights must be forfeited (Malus). If Performance Rights have been exercised into Shares and sold, clawback of the sale proceeds net of tax may occur at the Board’s discretion Following the issue of Shares resulting from the vesting and exercise of performance rights, dividends are payable to the employee in respect of those Shares Board discretion to award or forfeit on a case by case basis – forfeit pro rata according to balance of performance period; longevity in role and reasons for leaving are taken in to account. Flexibility provided in the Board having discretion on who participates, allocation methodology, quantum, performance hurdles, vesting, application of service condition and treatment on exit of employee from the Company Aligns Executive KMP with Shareholders. Aligned with Shareholders expectations that financial rewards should not be retained where for example significant corporate misconduct or catastrophic incident occurs. Aligns Executive KMP with Shareholders. Added equity component (and escrow inherent in that) leads to a slightly different approach. No change as considered sound practice. Clawback/ Malus None Dividends Treatment of unvested awards upon employee exit Board Discretion Following the issue of Shares resulting from the vesting and exercise of performance rights, dividends are payable to the employee in respect of those Shares Board discretion to award or forfeit on a case by case basis – typically forfeit all Flexibility provided in the Board having discretion on who participates, allocation methodology, quantum, performance hurdles, vesting, application of service condition and treatment on exit of employee from the Company 23 Proposed grant of equity to Executive Chairman under FY20 Incentive Plan will be put to Shareholder approval at AGM in November 2019 24 TREM means total remuneration comprising base salary and superannuation (only) 25 Otherwise than as a result of a change in the Accounting Standards 60 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | REMUNER ATI ON REPOR T 61 Minimum shareholding condition All employees are encouraged to become Shareholders in the Company, on the basis that movement in share price over time directly aligns with returns to Shareholders. The Company has implemented a minimum holding policy, requiring the Executive KMP and other senior leaders to establish within 3 years from a date to be set by the Remuneration Committee, and thereafter maintain, a minimum level of security ownership as follows: • Executive Chairman and CEO – equal to 100% of Fixed Remuneration; and • COO, CFO, CGO, GC & Co Sec and CDO – equal to 50% of Fixed Remuneration, which condition may be extended to other permanent employees of the Company by decision of the Remuneration Committee. Shares (whether acquired on or off market or through incentive plans from time to time) and vested incentives all count towards establishing the minimum holding. Increases in base salary will result in an increase in the minimum holding, and fluctuations in the Northern Star share price are taken into account with six monthly monitoring and adjustment of the minimum holding (in both cases re-setting the three year period for the adjusted component). The Chairman of the Remuneration Committee has discretion to temporarily exempt an employee from compliance with the minimum holding condition in exceptional hardship circumstances such as where a court order must be complied with, and, the Securities Trading Policy and the insider trading regime of the Corporations Act prevail over the minimum holding condition. The minimum holding condition will apply following the grant of incentives under the FY20 Incentive Plan to be put to Shareholders at the 2019 Annual General Meeting.

Ensures variable remuneration is allocated transparently year on year. The Board considers it advantageous to ensure that Shares issued upon the vesting and exercise of LTI performance rights are required to be held by Executive KMP for 1 year following issue. This achieves a higher level of alignment with Shareholders. Change of Control Upon a takeover bid being announced the Executive KMP LTIs will automatically vest with no restrictions on selling and no service condition applies When takeover bid for 50% or more becomes unconditional and bidder has a relevant interest in over 50% of the issued capital of the Company, vesting is automatic on a pro-rata basis according to the balance of the performance period remaining, with Board retaining absolute discretion to increase to 100% vesting Discretion is only exercised by the Board in exceptional circumstances, in which case the use of discretion and the impact is clearly disclosed in the Company’s relevant remuneration report. Clawback/ Malus None Hedging Policy Individuals cannot hedge equity that is unvested Minimum Holding Requirement None The Board retains discretion as to when to apply Clawback and Malus, such as in instances of: • Material financial misstatements;32 • Major negligence • Significant legal, regulatory and/or policy non-compliance • Significant harmful act by an individual in which case all the employee’s Performance Rights must be forfeited (Malus) If Performance Rights have been exercised into Shares and sold, clawback of the sale proceeds net of tax may occur at the Board’s discretion Individuals cannot hedge equity that is unvested KMP have 3 years to satisfy condition, to hold Shares or performance rights equating to a specified percentage of fixed remuneration. KMP excluding EC and CEO is 50% of fixed remuneration. EC and CEO is 100% of fixed remuneration. Six monthly adjustment for Share price movements. Aligned with Shareholders expectations that financial rewards should not be retained where for example significant corporate misconduct or catastrophic incident occurs. No change - considered sound practice This achieves a higher level of alignment with Shareholders 23 Proposed grant of equity to Executive Chairman under FY20 Incentive Plan will be put to Shareholder approval at AGM in November 2019 62 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | REMUNER ATI ON REPOR T 63 Remuneration Report FY20 Executive KMP fixed and variable KMP remuneration changes Review and changes to Executive KMP fixed and variable remuneration The Board has conducted a thorough salary review across the business and recommends adjusting select salaries to remain market competitive and protect retention of key leaders whilst delivering on business objectives and the added complexity. The increase in the proportion of performance-based variable remuneration from FY20 means the majority of Executive KMP remuneration will be at risk, with the greater proportion based on LTI, with a view to better incentivising the achievement of the Company’s long term objectives. The table below is voluntary and has been included in this Report to improve clarity and transparency around how Northern Star rewards Executive KMP to the extent that a final position has been reached. This table has not been prepared in accordance with statutory obligations or Australian Accounting Standards. The rationale for change is centred on remaining market competitive, and critically, retaining the high-performance management team to deliver the Company strategic objectives for the benefit of Shareholders. Northern Star benchmarks its remuneration against ASX listed resource companies, the ASX50-100 companies and internationally listed companies in the gold sector. The raise in remuneration levels closer to at least the 75th percentile of market has followed considerable consultation with regard being given to relevant industry benchmarking and remuneration structural advice from external remuneration advisers, taking into account the increased scale and complexity in the Company’s operations now including Pogo. The Board believes these changes in FY20 will appropriately motivate the Executive KMP, assist to mitigate the risk of key personnel being poached by competitors and additionally improves their alignment to Shareholders’ interests.

All NEDs enter into a service agreement with the Company in the form of a letter of appointment which summarises the Board policies and terms, including remuneration, relevant to the office of Director. NEDs receive a Board fee and fees for chairing or participating on Board Committees detailed in the table below. They do not receive performance- based pay or retirement allowances. The fees are inclusive of superannuation. The Executive Chairman does not receive Board or Committee fees. Non-Executive Directors’ fees are paid within an aggregate remuneration limit of $1,250,000 (inclusive of superannuation) per annum (approved at the Annual General Meeting on 12 November 2014). A review of Non-Executive Director remuneration was undertaken in July 2019, in light of there being no increases to Company NED fees since April 2017, the substantial increase in the Company’s size and complexity and taking into account comparable companies with similar market capitalisation as at 30 June 2019. There is no change to the base cash fee of $125,000 per annum. A further $50,000 per annum per Director will be paid in equity, subject to Shareholder approval in November 2019. The Minimum Holding Condition Policy will apply to the Non-Executive Directors requiring them each to retain a minimum holding equating to one year of base fees, and allowing three years to satisfy the Policy. The Remuneration Committee considered that Non-Executive Directors should be remunerated in line with the Company’s remuneration framework which targets payment to employees in the 50-75th percentile of relevant peers based on third party-provided comparative market data for the ASX50-100.

During FY19, PwC were engaged to review the Company’s executive remuneration framework and to assist with the implementation of the changes to the Executive KMP remuneration framework outlined in this report. The advice from PwC included: • benchmarking data for Executive Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and other Executive remuneration; • information and insights with respect to market practices and trends in remuneration within ASX listed and global gold companies, and • benchmarking data for NED remuneration. Their analysis was considered by the Remuneration Committee in forming their views on benchmarking matters In addition, PwC delivered a remuneration recommendation in accordance with Division 1, Part 1.2, 9B (1) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). The fee for the remuneration recommendation delivered by PwC was $25,000 (excluding GST). The fee for the additional work conducted by PwC was $145,913 (excluding GST). The engagement of PwC was initiated by the Remuneration Committee, based on the protocols governing the engagement and processes. The Board was satisfied that remuneration recommendations received were free from any undue influence by Key Management Personnel to whom the advice may relate, because strict protocols were observed and complied with regarding any interaction between PwC and management, and because all remuneration advice was provided to the Remuneration Committee Chair. Other Statutory Disclosures The Remuneration Committee comprises three independent Non- Executive Directors, namely Nick Cernotta (Chairman), John Fitzgerald (Lead Independent Director) and Chris Rowe. The CEO and others are invited to attend all or part of the Committee meetings as required but have no vote on matters before the Committee. The Committee meets several times a year to review and makes recommendations to the Board in accordance with the Remuneration Committee Charter to ensure that KMP remuneration remains aligned to business needs and performance. A copy of the Charter is available under the Corporate Governance section of the Company’s website available at www.nsrltd.com. The Committee is responsible for robust governance of the interconnection between performance and remuneration, with particular focus on: • the Company’s remuneration policy and framework (including determining short term incentives (STIs) key performance indicators and long-term incentives (LTIs) performance hurdles, and vesting of STIs/LTIs); • senior executives’ remuneration and incentives (including KMP and other senior management); • Non-Executive Director individual remuneration, and the aggregate pool for approval by Shareholders (as required); • superannuation arrangements; and • overseeing remuneration by gender. The Board and the Remuneration Committee use remuneration consultants’ advice and recommendations from time to time. The Remuneration Committee observes the following protocols: • remuneration consultants are engaged by and report directly to the Remuneration Committee; • the Committee must, in deciding whether to approve the engagement, have regard to any potential conflicts of interest including factors that may influence independence such as previous and future work performed by the adviser. and any relationships that exist between any executive KMP and the consultant; • communication between the remuneration consultants and Executive KMP is restricted to minimise the risk of undue influence on the remuneration consultant; 66 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | REMUNER ATI ON REPOR T 67 Remuneration Report Statutory remuneration disclosures The following table details the statutory remuneration disclosures calculated with reference to the Corporations Act and Australian Accounting Standards, in Australian dollars.

The maximum possible total value of the performance rights is the assessed fair value at the respective grant dates of the performance rights (Executive Chairman: $1.548, other Executive KMP: $1.151) multiplied by the number of performance rights granted, under guidance from external remuneration advisors. The fair value of performance shares at grant date was independently determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model (market based vesting conditions) and a Black Scholes Model (non-market vesting conditions) that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the performance share, the impact of dilution (where material), the Share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying Share, the expected dividend yield, the risk free rate for the term of the performance share and the correlations and volatilities of the peer group companies. The model inputs for the FY17 performance rights included: TABLE 22 MODEL INPUTS FOR FAIR VALUE ASSESSMENT Exercise price Approval/Grant Date Expiry date Share price at grant date Expected volatility of the Shares49 Expected dividend yield Risk-free interest rate Executive Chairman – Bill Beament Nil 29 November 2016 21 December 2022 $3.60 25% 1.94% 1.91% Other Executive KMP Nil 21 December 2016 21 December 2022 $3.15 25% 2.22% 2.03% TABLE 23 LTI PERFORMANCE RIGHTS AND SHARES YET TO VEST Name LTI Plan Grant Date Performance Period Fair value per Right Fair value of Rights % Performance Achieved50 No. Vested No. Forfeited / Lapsed No. Rights held at 30 June 2019 Bill Beament Stuart Tonkin Luke Creagh Michael Mulroney Ryan Gurner Hilary Macdonald Shaun Day FY17 LTI Performance Rights Plan 21 December 2016 FY17 LTI Performance Rights Plan 21 December 2016 FY17 LTI Performance Rights Plan 21 December 2016 FY17 LTI Performance Rights Plan 21 December 2016 FY17 LTI Performance Rights Plan 21 December 2016 FY17 LTI Performance Rights Plan 21 December 2016 FY17 LTI Performance Rights Plan 21 December 2016 3 years 3,000,000 $1.5484 $4,645,200 Nil Nil Nil 3 years 1,100,000 $1.1512 $1,266,320 Nil Nil Nil 3 years 350,000 $1.1512 $402,920 Nil Nil Nil 3 years 620,000 $1.1512 $713,744 Nil Nil Nil 3 years 190,000 $1.1512 $218,728 Nil Nil Nil 3 years 235,000 $1.1512 $270,532 Nil Nil Nil 3 years 495,000 $1.1512 $569,844 Nil Nil 165,00051 48 TREM means total remuneration comprising base salary and superannuation (only) 49 Expected volatility of the Company’s Shares is based on the historic volatility (based on the remaining life of the performance rights) 50 Performance period does not end until 16 October 2019.

Contract also contains provisions regarding leave entitlements, duties, confidentiality, intellectual property, moral rights, restrictions during and after employment and other ancillary clauses. 56 TREM means total remuneration comprising base salary and superannuation Other transactions with KMP and comment on previous disclosures of “Related Party” transactions with Bill Beament The Company has in place policies and procedures which govern transactions involving KMPs and their related parties, and these policies and procedures restrict the involvement of the KMP or related party in the negotiation, awarding or direct management of the resultant contract. In the Company’s 2017 Annual Report, specifically Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company reported that the beneficial minority interest of 23% held by Mr Beament in AUD Pty Ltd, the sole Shareholder of Australian Underground Drilling Pty Ltd (AUD), being a supplier of goods and services to the Company, did not require reporting under the Accounting Standards. For the purposes of the 2019 Annual Report, the Company is of the same view, having applied the necessary criteria under the Australian Accounting Standards for FY19. The Company’s policies and procedures continue to apply to ensure that Mr Beament is not involved in the negotiation, awarding of contracts or direct management of the contract with AUD. Mr Beament’s continued Shareholding in AUD also remains the subject of regular review by the independent Directors. They recognise that, notwithstanding the position under the Australian Accounting Standards, good corporate governance would normally be exhibited by the absence of a key executive holding a 23% interest in a drilling contract with a material supplier to the Company. AUD is a material supplier due to the aggregate total of fees paid, the nature of the services provided to the Company by the supplier, and the place the supplier has in the Company’s risk mitigation strategy, in seeking to maintain diversity amongst its suppliers where it is commercially feasible to do so, to ensure that there is no reliance by the Company on one supplier for a particular service across all the Company’s operations. The Independent Directors’ unanimous view remains that the continuing contractual relationship between the Company and AUD is more beneficial to the Company than terminating the contract would be. The results of the multiple party tender process conducted in FY18 demonstrated that there was no comparable supplier with the capacity at the time of tender to provide the services to the Company’s Kalgoorlie Operations for the same quality, productivity rates and price offered by AUD. Further, the selection of AUD was and remains consistent with the Company-wide risk mitigation strategy in striving for diversity in its supply chain, having regard to the other suppliers providing underground diamond drilling services to the Company’s other operations (in which Mr Beament has no shareholding or other basis for inferring a significant influence). The addition of Pogo has increased the diversity and improved the risk mitigation strategy further. 72 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | AUDITOR’S I NDEPENDENCE DECLARATION 73 Remuneration Report Auditor’s Independence Declaration “Northern Star Resources has an excellent track record of adding value through exploration at its existing Australian assets and last year made its first international acquisition acquiring the Pogo Mine in Alaska from Sumitomo.

These changes are accumulated within the FVOCI reserve within equity. Share based payments The share based payments reserve relates to shares, performance shares, performance rights and share options granted by the Company to its employees. Further information about share based payments to employees is set out in note 20. Foreign currency translation Exchange differences arising on translation of the foreign controlled entities are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in a separate reserve within equity. The cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss when the net investment is disposed of.

the JORC Code. The information on Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves is prepared by Competent Persons as defined by the JORC Code. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves. Assumptions that are valid at the time of estimation may change significantly when new information becomes available. Changes in the forecast prices of commodities, exchange rates, production costs or recovery rates may change the economic status of reserves and may, ultimately, result in the reserves being restated. Such changes may impact asset carrying values, depreciation and amortisation rates, deferred development costs and provisions for restoration. Other critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions are discussed in the following notes: Unit of production method of depreciation/amortisation Exploration and evaluation expenditure Business combination Mine rehabilitation provision Impairment of assets note 6(a) note 9(b) note 13 note 9(g) note 25(d); 9(c) 2019 Segment net operating profit (loss) before income tax Depreciation and amortisation Impairment Finance costs Segment EBITDA Pogo $’000 Kalgoorlie Operations $’000 Jundee $’000 Exploration $’000 Total $’000 (31,938) 47,449 - 2,491 104,920 141,939 - 2,290 217,834 55,696 - 910 (16,568) 120 9,929 504 274,248 245,204 9,929 6,195 18,002 249,149 274,440 (6,015) 535,576 Total segment assets 521,819 349,540 157,927 267,046 1,296,332 Total segment liabilities (136,732) (191,643) (92,905) (22,475) (443,755) Pogo’s revenue is generated from production activities located in the United States of America (USA).

Pogo, Alaska USA - Mining and processing of gold 2. Kalgoorlie Operations, WA Australia - Mining and processing of gold 3. 4. Exploration - Exploration and evaluation of gold mineralisation Jundee, WA Australia - Mining and processing of gold An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues or incur expenses. During the current period, the Group completed the acquisition of the Pogo gold mine, refer to note 13 for further details. Following the completion of the Pogo transaction and review by the Executive Committee the Group now has seven operating segments (East Kundana JV, Kanowna Belle, Millennium, Jundee, South Kalgoorlie, Pogo, and Exploration). As in the prior year, Kanowna Belle, East Kundana JV, Millennium and South Kalgoorlie is considered as and has been presented as one reporting segment (Kalgoorlie Operations). Following review by the Executive Committee, Paulsens and Tanami have been included in the Exploration segment for the year ended 30 June 2019. Exploration compromises all projects in the exploration and evaluation phase of the Group. These include the Mt Olympus, Fortescue JV and Electric Dingo projects as well as ongoing exploration programmes at the Group’s respective sites. An analysis of segment revenues is presented in note 3. 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | FINANCIAL REPORTNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 84 85 2 Segment information cont’d (c) Segment EBITDA Segment EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure, being earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation and is calculated as follows: profit before income tax plus depreciation, amortisation, impairment and finance costs, less interest income. Interest income, finance charges, interest expense and acquisition costs are not allocated to the operating segments as this type of activity is driven by the corporate treasury function which manages the cash position of the Group. Segment EBITDA reconciles to profit before income tax for the year ended 30 June 2019 as follows: Segment EBITDA Other income and expense Finance costs Depreciation Amortisation Corporate and technical services Share based payments Impairment of assets Profit before income tax (d) Segment assets 30 June 2019 $’000 30 June 2018 $’000 535,576 1,911 (11,602) (77,432) (170,051) (45,293) (8,396) (9,929) 492,571 8,785 (3,477) (43,149) (114,640) (39,139) (11,426) (11,753) 214,784 277,772 Segment assets are measured in the same way as in the financial statements.

The Group delivers dore bars to refiners, who convert the product into investment grade bullion for a fee, which is subsequently sold either to the refinery or third parties (financial institutions). Revenue from the sale of these goods is recognised when control over the inventory has transferred to the customer. Control is generally considered to have passed when: • physical possession and inventory risk is transferred (including via a third-party transport provider arranged by the refinery): • payment terms for the sale of goods can be clearly identified through the sale of metal credits received or receivable for the transfer of control of the asset; • • the Group can determine with sufficient accuracy the metal content of the goods delivered; and the refiner has no practical ability to reject the product where it is within contractually specified limits. Where the economic inflows arise from other by-products, for example from the presence of other valuable metals, these amounts are credited to the costs of producing the primary products to the extent the amounts generated are not considered significant. (II) SALE OF SERVICES Tolling revenue is recognised as the tolling services are performed. The number of units processed is considered to be the most direct measurement of value delivered to the customer under the contractual arrangements and therefore tolling revenue is earned per tonne of ore processed. The Group adopted AASB 15 from 1 July 2018. The adoption of this standard had no material impact for the year ended 30 June 2019. The Group derives the following types of revenue: Sale of gold Sale of silver Toll treatment Total revenue 30 June 2019 $’000 30 June 2018 $’000 1,378,004 2,401 20,760 1,401,165 941,296 1,873 20,856 964,025 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | FINANCIAL REPORTNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 86 87 3 Revenue cont’d (a) Segment revenue The total of revenue, broken down by operating segment, is shown in the following table.

The acquisition was carried out through NST’s wholly owned subsidiary Northern Star (Alaska) LLC. This entity acquired all of the shares of Sumitomo Metal Mining Pogo LLC and SC Pogo LLC (subsequently renamed to Northern Star (Pogo) LLC and Northern Star (Pogo Two) LLC). For details of the acquisition refer to note 13 of the financial statements. For a detailed discussion about the Group’s performance and financial position please refer to our operating and financial review on pages 16 to 19 of this Report. 5 Other income and expense items Net gain/(loss) on disposal of property, plant and equipment Interest income Other INTEREST Interest income is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest method.

The Group uses the unit-of- production basis when depreciating/amortising mine specific assets which results in a depreciation/amortisation charge proportional to the depletion of the anticipated remaining life of mine which is referenced to the estimated economic reserve and resources of the property to which the assets relate. Each item’s economic life, which is assessed annually has due regard to both its physical life limitations and to present assessments of economically recoverable reserves and resources of the mine property at which it is located. Depreciation of non-mine specific property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost or revalued amounts, net of their residual values, over their estimated useful lives or, in the case of leasehold improvements and certain leased plant and equipment, the shorter lease term as follows: Land and buildings 5 - 20 years Plant and equipment 2 - 20 years Motor Vehicles Office equipment 4 - 10 years 2 - 10 years Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date. ROYALTIES Royalties under existing royalty regimes in Australia are payable on sales and therefore recognised as the sale occurs. Production Royalties in Alaska are based on taxable profit and are consequently treated as an income tax. Other includes the Group’s share of net profit or loss from equity accounted investments (2019: $3.5 million loss; 2018:$1.4 million loss) (b) Corporate and technical services Administration and technical services Depreciation Employee benefit expenses Share based payments Amortisation Acquisition and integration costs 30 June 2019 $’000 30 June 2018 $’000 28,912 1,122 18,883 8,396 1,278 6,686 65,277 20,716 1,326 16,102 11,426 1,278 5,156 56,004 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | FINANCIAL REPORTNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 88 89 6 Expenses cont’d ACCOUNTING POLICY Share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees via Option, Share and Performance Rights Plans as discussed in note 20. The fair value of shares and options granted under these Plans are recognised as a share based payments expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair value of the shares or options granted, which includes any market performance conditions and the impact of any non-vesting conditions but excludes the impact of any service and non- market performance vesting conditions. Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of shares and options that are expected to vest. The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At the end of each period, the entity revises its estimates of the number of shares and options that are expected to vest based on the non-market vesting conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in profit or loss with a corresponding adjustment to equity.

The unwinding of the effect of discounting the provision is recorded as a finance charge in profit or loss. Total expenses 1,188,292 695,037 7 Income tax expense The income tax expense for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses. The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period in the countries where the Company’s subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. 7 Income tax expense cont’d This note provides an analysis of the Group’s income tax expense, showing what amounts are recognised directly in equity and how the tax expense is affected by non-assessable and non-deductible items. It explains significant estimates made in relation to the Group’s tax position.

Level 1: The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1. Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2. Valuation inputs include underlying spot prices, implied volatility, discount curves and time until expiration, expressed as a percent of a year. 9 Non-financial assets and liabilities This note provides information about the Group’s non-financial assets and liabilities, including: • A$5.0 million bank guarantee facility drawn down by A$3.3 million (2018: A$5.0 million drawn down by A$3.3 million); • specific information about the following non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities • A$5.0 million bank guarantee facility drawn down by A$4.5 million (2018: A$5.0 million drawn down by A$4.5 million); • US$72.0 million bank guarantee and stand by letter of credit facility drawn down by US$71.9 million (2018: nil); and • US$3.0 million bank guarantee and stand by letter of facility drawn down by US$1.3 million (2018: nil). (f) Recognised fair value measurements (I) FAIR VALUE HIERARCHY This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are recognised and measured at fair value in the financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Group has classified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standards. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.

Refer to note 25 for further information on accounting policies associated with impairment. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred. 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | FINANCIAL REPORTNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 96 97 9 Non-financial assets and liabilities cont’d 9 Non-financial assets and liabilities cont’d (a) Property, plant and equipment cont’d ACCOUNTING POLICY CONT’D (a) Property, plant and equipment cont’d (I) LEASED ASSETS At 30 June 2018 Cost or fair value Accumulated depreciation Net book amount Year ended 30 June 2018 Opening net book amount Additions Acquired as part of asset acquisition Acquired as part of business combination (note 13) Disposals Transfer to mine properties Transfers Depreciation charge Closing net book amount At 30 June 2019 Cost or fair value Accumulated depreciation Net book amount Year ended 30 June 2019 Opening net book amount Additions Acquired as part of business combination (note 13) Exchange differences Disposals Transfers Depreciation charge Land & buildings $’000 Plant & equipment $’000 Motor vehicles $’000 Office equipment $’000 Capital work in progress $’000 Total $’000 13,541 238,841 (9,221) (126,966) 4,320 111,875 9,050 (5,421) 3,629 4,735 (3,203) 17,688 283,855 - (144,811) 1,532 17,688 139,044 3,729 73,206 2,505 1,270 - 664 1,364 - - - 243 25,991 (1,231) - 753 52,464 (2,190) (38,798) 4,320 111,875 - 10 296 (62) - 2,258 (1,378) 3,629 - 2 155 - - 888 (783) 24,141 50,649 57 3,376 - (4,172) (56,363) 104,851 50,649 976 31,182 (1,293) (4,172) - - (43,149) 1,532 17,688 139,044 Land & buildings $’000 Plant & equipment $’000 Motor vehicles $’000 Office equipment $’000 Capital work in progress $’000 Total $’000 53,214 609,437 (11,193) (189,510) 42,021 419,927 12,546 (6,933) 5,613 10,304 (4,089) 27,308 712,809 - (211,725) 6,215 27,308 501,084 Land & buildings $’000 Plant & equipment $’000 Motor vehicles $’000 Office equipment $’000 4,320 111,875 - - 29,626 279,015 878 - 9,163 (1,966) 8,100 (1,634) 94,962 (72,391) 3,629 - 786 27 (96) 3,398 (2,131) 5,613 1,532 - 3,961 118 (410) 1,958 (944) 6,215 Capital work in progress $’000 17,688 114,859 4,070 172 - (109,481) Total $’000 139,044 114,859 317,458 9,295 (2,140) - - (77,432) 27,308 501,084 Closing net book amount 42,021 419,927 Leases of property, plant and equipment where the Group, as lessee, has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the lease’s inception at the fair value of the lease property, or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. The property, plant and equipment acquired under finance leases is depreciated over the asset’s useful life or over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term if there is no reasonable certainty that the Group will obtain ownership at the end of the lease term. Plant and equipment includes the following amounts where the Group is a lessee under a finance lease: Cost Accumulated depreciation Net book amount (b) Exploration and evaluation assets ACCOUNTING POLICY 30 June 2019 $’000 30 June 2018 $’000 63,113 (17,142) 45,971 22,861 (8,311) 14,550 Exploration and evaluation assets include the costs of acquiring licences, costs associated with exploration and evaluation activity, and the fair value (at acquisition date) of exploration and evaluation assets acquired in a business combination. Exploration and evaluation expenditure is capitalised on an area of interest basis. Costs incurred before the Group has obtained the legal rights to explore an area are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Exploration and evaluation assets are only recognised if the rights of the area of interest are current and either, the expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest or activities in the area of interest have not at the reporting date; reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing. Once a development decision has been made all past exploration and evaluation expenditure in respect of an area of interest that has been capitalised is transferred to mine properties where it is amortised over the life of the area of interest to which it relates on a unit-of- production basis. No amortisation is charged during the exploration and evaluation phase. The application of the above accounting policy requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions as to future events and circumstances, in particular, the assessment of whether economic quantities of reserves will be found. Any such estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes available, which may require adjustments to the carrying value of assets. Capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is assessed for impairment when an indicator of impairment exists, and capitalised assets are written off where required.

LEAVE OBLIGATIONS The leave obligations cover the Group’s liability for long service leave and annual leave. 10 Equity ACCOUNTING POLICY Ordinary shares are classified as equity. They entitle the holder to participate in dividends and have no par value. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. The current portion of this liability includes all of the accrued annual leave, the unconditional entitlements to long service leave where employees have completed the required period of service and also those where employees are entitled to pro-rata payments in certain circumstances. The entire amount of the annual leave provision of $19.3 million (2018 - $17.7 million) is presented as current, as the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for any of these obligations. Based on past experience, the Group does not expect all employees to take the full amount of accrued leave or require payment within the next 12 months. The following amounts reflect leave that is not to be expected to be taken or paid within the next 12 months. 30 June 2019 $’000 30 June 2018 $’000 (a) Share capital Ordinary shares Fully paid Total share capital Current leave obligations expected to be settled after 12 months 8,008 6,784 (II) INFORMATION ABOUT INDIVIDUAL PROVISIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES (I) MOVEMENTS IN ORDINARY SHARES: 30 June 2019 Shares 30 June 2018 Shares 30 June 2019 $’000 30 June 2018 $’000 639,592,634 612,823,852 639,592,634 612,823,852 473,708 473,708 291,290 291,290 Rehabilitation provision The Group assesses its mine rehabilitation provision annually. Significant judgement is required in determining the provision for mine rehabilitation and closure as there are many factors that will affect the ultimate liability payable to rehabilitate the mine sites, including future disturbances caused by further development, changes in technology, changes in regulations, price increases, changes in timing of cash flows which are based on life of mine plans and changes in discount rates. When these factors change or become known in the future, such differences will impact the mine rehabilitation provision in the period in which the change becomes known. Long service leave The liability for long service leave and other long-term benefits is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made by the Group for those employees with greater than 5 years’ service up to the reporting date. Long-term benefits not expected to be settled within 12 months are discounted using the rates attaching to high quality corporate bonds at the reporting date, which most closely match the terms of maturity of the related liability. In determining the liability for these long-term employee benefits, consideration has been given to expected future increases in wage and salary rates, the Group’s experience with staff departures and periods of service. Related on- costs are also included in the liability.

Current year profit and loss information has been included where relevant to add further context. 107 11 Financial risk management cont’d (a) Market risk (III) PRICE RISK EXPOSURE CONT’D The Group is also exposed to equity securities price risk arising from investments held by the Group and classified in the statement of financial position as financial assets at fair value through OCI and investments accounted for using the equity method. All of the Group’s equity investments are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange or TSX Venture Exchange.

The Audit and Risk Management Committee is responsible for developing and monitoring risk management policies. The Committee reports regularly to the Board on its activities. Risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Group’s activities. The Group, through its training, management standards and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. The Group’s Audit and Risk Management Committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Group’s risk management policies and procedures and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Group. (a) Market risk (I) FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK The Group operates internationally and its exposure to foreign exchange risk is primarily the US$. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the functional currency of the relevant entity. The carrying value of financial instruments that are held in a currency other than the entities functional currency are not material. The Group’s US operations give rise to a foreign currency exposure, however the impacts of translating these entities into the Australian Dollar presentational currency are recorded through the foreign currency translation reserve in equity. (II) CASH FLOW AND FAIR VALUE INTEREST RATE RISK At reporting date the Group has minimal exposure to interest rate risk. The majority of the Group’s borrowings relate to the purchases of plant and equipment under finance lease arrangements which have fixed interest rates over their term and therefore not subject to interest rate risk as defined in AASB 7. (III) PRICE RISK Exposure The Group is exposed to the risk of fluctuations in the prevailing market prices for the gold and silver currently produced from its operating mines. The Group manages this risk through the use of gold forward contracts. These contracts are accounted for as sale contracts with revenue recognised once gold has been physically delivered into the contract. The physical gold delivery contracts are considered a contract to sell a non-financial item and therefore do not fall within the scope of AASB 9 Financial Instruments. The Group’s contractual sales commitments are disclosed in note 17. Credit risk refers to the risk that a counter party will default on its contractual obligation resulting in financial loss to the Group. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents and credit exposures to gold sales counterparties and financial counterparties. (I) RISK MANAGEMENT The Group has adopted the policy of dealing with creditworthy counterparties as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. Cash is deposited only with institutions approved by the Board, typically with a current minimum credit rating of A (or equivalent) as determined by a reputable credit rating agency e.g. Standard & Poor’s. Permitted instruments by which the Group hedges gold price risk are entered into with financial counterparties with a minimum credit of A (or equivalent). The Group has established limits on aggregate funds on term deposit or invested in money markets to be placed with a single financial counterparty and monitors credit and counterparty risk using credit default swaps. The Group sells the majority of its unhedged gold and silver to a single counterparty with settlement terms of no more than 2 days. The counterparty currently has an AA+ long term rating and AAA short term rating. The Group does not have any other significant credit risk exposure to a single counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics. (II) CREDIT QUALITY The credit quality of financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired can be assessed by reference to external credit ratings (if available) or to historical information about counterparty default rates. Trade receivables Counterparties with external credit rating (Moody’s) AA Counterparties without external credit rating * Other Total trade receivables Cash at bank and short-term bank deposits AAA AA A * Other - counterparties with no defaults in the past (III) IMPAIRED TRADE RECEIVABLES 30 June 2019 $’000 30 June 2018 $’000 44,431 11,563 2,887 47,318 - 234,739 31,440 266,179 3,593 15,156 10,000 432,997 - 442,997 In determining the recoverability of trade and other receivables, the Group performs a risk analysis considering the type and age of the outstanding receivable and the creditworthiness of the counterparty. If appropriate, an impairment loss will be recognised in profit or loss. The Group does not have any impaired Trade and other receivables as at 30 June 2019 (2018: nil). No allowance for expected credit losses has been recognised as the duration off associated exposure is short and/or the probability of default is negligible. 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | FINANCIAL REPORTNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 108 109 11 Financial risk management cont’d (c) Liquidity risk The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring immediate and forecasted cash requirements and ensures adequate cash reserves are maintained to pay debts as and when due. Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due. At the end of the reporting period the Group held short term on-demand cash balance of $263.1 million (2018: deposits at call of $202.0 million and on-demand cash balance of $240.9 million) that available for managing liquidity risk. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, the Group maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit facilities. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s available cash reserve (comprising the undrawn borrowing facilities below and cash and cash equivalents) on the basis of expected cash flows. The Group’s liquidity management policy involves seeking to maintain a minimum available cash of at least 30 days costs of goods sold plus net interest costs. 12 Capital management (a) Risk management The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to • safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and • maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital and maximise returns to Shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to Shareholders, return capital to Shareholders or issue new shares. Total capital is equity, as shown in the statement of financial position. The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. (I) FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS The Group had access to the following undrawn borrowing facilities at the end of the reporting year: (b) Dividends (I) ORDINARY SHARES Floating rate - Expiring beyond one year (financing facility) The credit facilities may be drawn at any time.

In particular, there is information about: • • • changes to the structure that occurred during the year as a result of business combinations and the disposal of a discontinued operation interests in joint operations interests in associates. A list of significant subsidiaries is provided in note 15. 30 June 2019 $’000 30 June 2018 $’000 31,973 36,190 38,367 27,143 70,340 63,333 30 June 2019 $’000 30 June 2018 $’000 47,969 30,667 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | FINANCIAL REPORTNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 110 111 13 Business combination ACCOUNTING POLICY The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations, regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary comprises the: fair values of the assets transferred; liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquired business; equity interests issued by the Group; fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement; and fair value of any pre-existing equity interest in the subsidiary. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The application of acquisition accounting requires significant judgements and estimates to be made, which are discussed further below. The Group engages independent third parties to assist with the determination of the fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, non-controlling interest, if any, and goodwill, based on recognised business valuation methodologies. The income valuation method represents the present value of future cash flows over the life of the asset using: • financial forecasts, which rely on management’s estimates of reserve quantities and exploration potential, costs to produce and develop reserves, revenues, and operating expenses; • long-term growth rates; • appropriate discount rates; and • expected future capital requirements. The market valuation method uses prices paid for a similar asset by other purchasers in the market, normalised for any differences between the assets. The cost valuation method is based on the replacement cost of a comparable asset at the time of the acquisition adjusted for depreciation and economic and functional obsolescence of the asset and estimates of residual values. The Group recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquired entity’s net identifiable assets. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. The excess of the consideration transferred and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree over the acquisition date fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If those amounts are less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the subsidiary acquired and the measurement of all amounts has been reviewed, the difference is recognised directly in profit or loss as a bargain purchase. If the initial accounting for the business combination is not complete by the end of the reporting period in which the acquisition occurs, an estimate will be recorded. Subsequent to the acquisition date, but not later than one year from the acquisition date, the Group will record any material adjustments to the initial estimate based on new information obtained that would have existed as of the date of the acquisition. (a) Pogo gold operations (I) SUMMARY OF THE ACQUISITION On 28 September 2018, Northern Star completed the acquisition of the Pogo gold project in Alaska from Sumitomo Metal Mining Co., Ltd (85% interest and the mine operator) and Sumitomo Corporation (15% interest) for US$260.3 million (A$360.4 million). Details of the purchase consideration and the net identifiable assets acquired are as follows: Purchase consideration Cash Paid The assets and liabilities recognised as a result of the acquisition are as follows: Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Inventories Property, plant and equipment Mine properties Trade and other payables Deferred tax liability Provision for rehabilitation Borrowings Net identifiable assets acquired $’000 360,426 Fair value $’000 9,876 3,416 40,337 317,458 140,531 (33,051) (41,272) (75,216) (1,653) 360,426 13 Business combination cont’d (a) Pogo gold operations cont’d (II) ACQUIRED RECEIVABLES The fair value of acquired trade receivables is $3.4 million. The gross contractual amount for trade receivables due is $3.4 million, of which none is expected to be uncollectible. (III) REVENUE AND PROFIT CONTRIBUTION The acquired business contributed revenues of $253.1 million and a net loss of $31.9 million to the Group for the period from 1 October 2018 - 30 June 2019. If the acquisition had occurred on 1 July 2018, consolidated pro-forma revenue and net loss for the year ended 30 June 2019 would have been $351.1 million and $42.6 million respectively. These amounts have been calculated using the subsidiary’s results and adjusting for differences in the accounting policies between the Group and the subsidiary.

Stone Boy Inc. (together with SC Minerals America Inc. and SMM Exploration Corp), remain the current owners of the Monte Cristo Project which is subject of an Option Agreement dated 29 August 2016 with Great American Minerals Exploration Inc (GAME). GAME hold an option to purchase the Monte Cristo Project and is currently sole funding exploration expenditure on the Monte Cristo ground pursuant to its rights to purchase the Monte Cristo Project. On 28 November 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of Tanami Exploration NL from Tanami Gold NL. The total cash consideration paid by the Company was $4.0 million. The Group determined that the transaction did not constitute a business combination in accordance with AASB 3. The acquisition of the net assets meets the definition of, and has been accounted for, as an asset acquisition. Details of this acquisition were disclosed in note 14 of the Group’s annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2018. 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | FINANCIAL REPORTNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 112 113 15 Interests in other entities (a) Material subsidiaries 15 Interests in other entities cont’d (c) Interests in associates and joint ventures The Group’s principal subsidiaries at 30 June 2019 are set out below.

As part of the acquisition, NSR has granted TAM two put options to sell the remaining 40% interest in the CTP following completion. The first put option grants TAM the right to sell 15% of CTP for $20 million in cash or NSR shares at TAM’s election, at any time from completion up until three years after the completion of the initial acquisition. If commercial production is achieved more than three years after completion, TAM may exercise this option at any time up to 30 calendar days following achievement of commercial production. The second put option grants TAM the right to sell 25% of CTP for $32 million in cash or NSR shares at TAMs election at any time from completion up to six calendar months after the achievement of commercial production. On 27 June 2018, TAM announced its intention to exercise the first put option on or immediately prior to 31 July 2018 in accordance with the terms of the joint venture agreement between TAM and the Company. As such, the Company had recognised a $20 million payable as at 30 June 2018. Refer to note 4 for further details. On 31 July 2018, TAM exercised the first put option under the joint venture agreement. The total undiscounted amount of payments that the Group could be required to make to TAM upon the exercise of the second put option is $32 million. The joint arrangements listed above are classified as joint operations and are not separate legal entities. They are contractual arrangements between participants for the sharing of costs and outputs and do not themselves generate revenue and profit. The joint operations are of the type where initially one party contributes tenements with the other party earning a specified percentage by funding exploration activities; thereafter the parties often share exploration and development costs and output in proportion to their ownership of joint venture assets. The joint operations are accounted for in accordance with the Group’s accounting policy set out in note 25. 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | FINANCIAL REPORTNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 114 115 17 Commitments (a) Capital commitments Significant capital expenditure contracted for at the end of the reporting year but not recognised as liabilities is as follows: OT HER I NF ORMA TI ON This section of the notes includes other information that must be disclosed to comply with the accounting standards and other pronouncements, but that is not immediately related to individual line items in the financial statements.

In the Company’s 2017 Annual Report, specifically Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company reported that the beneficial minority interest held by Mr Beament in AUD Pty Ltd, the sole Shareholder of Australian Underground Drilling Pty Ltd (AUD), being a supplier of goods and services to the Company, did not require reporting under the Accounting Standards. For the purposes of the 2019 Annual Report, the Company is of the same view, having applied the necessary criteria under the Australian Accounting Standards for FY2019. The Company’s policies and procedures continue to apply to ensure that Mr Beament is not involved in the negotiation, awarding of contracts or direct management of the contract with AUD. Mr Beament’s continued Shareholding in AUD also remains the subject of regular review by the independent Directors. They recognise that, notwithstanding the position under the Australian Accounting Standards, good corporate governance would normally be exhibited by the absence of a key executive holding a 23% interest in a drilling contract with a material supplier to the Company. AUD is a material supplier due to the aggregate total of fees paid, the nature of the services provided to the Company by the supplier, and the place the supplier has in the Company’s risk mitigation strategy, in seeking to maintain diversity amongst its suppliers where it is commercially feasible to do so, to ensure that there is no reliance by the Company on one supplier for a particular service across all the Company’s operations. The independent Directors’ unanimous view remains that the continuing contractual relationship between the Company and AUD is more beneficial to the Company than terminating the contract would be. The results of the multiple party tender process conducted in FY18 demonstrated that there was no comparable supplier with the capacity at the time of tender to provide the services to the Company’s Kalgoorlie Operations for the same quality, productivity rates and price offered by AUD. Further, the selection of AUD was and remains consistent with the Company-wide risk mitigation strategy in striving for diversity in its supply chain, having regard to the other suppliers providing underground diamond drilling services to the Company’s other operations (in which Mr Beament has no shareholding or other basis for inferring a significant influence). The addition of Pogo has increased the diversity and improved the risk mitigation strategy further The following transaction occurred with relates parties: Shirley In’tVeld: • is a board member of CSIRO. During the year, a revenue amount of $177,678 was paid to this business for consulting services provided at normal commercial rates (2018: $75,000). 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | FINANCIAL REPORTNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 116 117 20 Share-based payments (a) Employee Option Plan 20 Share-based payments cont’d (d) Performance Rights cont’d Set out below are summaries of options granted under the Employee Option Plan: The model inputs for performance rights granted on 30 July 2018 included: As at 1 July Exercised during the year * Forfeited during the year Cancelled during the year As as 30 June 2019 2018 Average exercise price per Share option 2.18 2.18 2.18 - - Average exercise price per Share option 1.58 1.28 - 2.18 2.18 Number of options 758,688 (714,668) (44,020) - - Number of options 2,673,638 (1,791,241) - (123,709) 758,688 (a) Exercise price (b) Grant date (c) Expiry date (d) Share price at grant date (e) Expected volatility of the company’s shares (f) Expected dividend yield (g) Risk-free interest rate Tranche A Tranche B Nil 30-Jul-18 30-Jul-24 $7.13 20% 1.59% 2.09% Nil 30-Jul-18 30-Jul-24 $7.13 35% 1.59% 2.09% The weighted average share price at the date of exercise of options exercised during the year ended 30 June 2019 was $7.049 [2018 - $4.414). There were no share options outstanding at the end of the year (2018: 758,688 share options with an exercise price of $2.18 and an expiry date of 31 July 2018) The expected volatility is based on the historic volatility (based on the remaining life of the performance rights). Total performance rights on issue at 30 June 2019 is 10,198,000 (2018: 10,047,140). Total share based payments expense for the year ended 30 June 2019 was $8.4 million (2018: $11.4 million) (b) Employee Share Plan 21 Remuneration of auditors Under the Employee Share Plan, eligible employees may be granted up to $1,000 of fully paid ordinary shares in the Company annually for no cash consideration. The number of shares issued to participants in the scheme is the offer amount divided by the weighted average price at which the Company’s shares are traded on the ASX during the week up to and including the date of grant. The fair value of shares issued during the year was $9.38 (2018: $6.33) per share. During the year the following fees were paid or payable for services provided by the auditor of the parent entity, its related practices and non-related audit firms: (a) Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu 2019 2018 (I) AUDIT AND OTHER ASSURANCE SERVICES Number of shares issued under the plan to participating employees on 24 May 2019 (2018: 13 June) 137,786 144,754 (c) Performance Share Plan No performance shares were issued in FY2019. Total performance shares on issue at 30 June 2019 is 1,091,001 (2018: 5,031,535), with a corresponding total non-recourse loan value of $1,176,511 (2018: $7,542,509). (d) Performance Rights On 30 July 2018, 404,990 Category B performance rights were issued to the senior management of the Company. During the year, 26,330 of these Category B performance rights were cancelled. Balance on issue as at 30 June 2019 in relation to FY2019 issue is 378,660. The Company may issue performance rights to one or more eligible employee under the Long Term Incentive Plan. A performance right is a conditional right which, upon the satisfaction or waiver of the relevant vesting conditions, and, if required by the Company the exercise of that right, entitles its holder to received one share. The assessed fair value at grant date of the performance rights granted during the year ended 30 June 2019 was $3.361. The fair value at grant date is independently determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model (market based vesting conditions) and a Black Scholes Model (non market vesting conditions) that takes into account the term of the performance rights, the impact of dilution (where material), the share price at grant date and expected volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield, the risk-free rate for the term of the performance right and the correlations and volatilities of the peer group companies.

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account: • • the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares, and the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

Under the Deed, each entity in the Group guarantees to each creditor payment in full of any debt in the event of winding up of any of the entities under certain provisions of the Corporations Act. In the event of a winding up of an entity under other provisions of the Corporations Act, the other entities in the Group will only be liable to make up any shortfall of funds if after six months any creditor has not been paid in full.

The funding amounts are determined by reference to the amounts recognised in the wholly- owned entities’ financial statements. The amounts receivable/payable under the tax funding agreement are due upon receipt of the funding advice from the head entity, which is issued as soon as practicable after the end of each financial year.

It will result in almost all leases being recognised on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position by lessees, as the distinction between operating and finance leases is removed. Under the new standard, an asset (the right to use the leased item) and a financial liability to pay rentals are recognised. The only exceptions are short-term and low-value leases. Impact The Group has set up a project team which reviewed all of the Group’s leasing arrangements over the last year in light of the new lease accounting rules in AASB 16. The standard will affect primarily the accounting for the Group’s operating leases. As at the reporting date, the Group has non-cancellable operating lease commitments of $54.2 million, see note 16. Of these commitments, approximately $1.4 million relate to short-term and low value leases which will both be recognised on a straight-line basis as expense in profit or loss. For the remaining lease commitments the Group expects, on 1 July 2019, to recognise right-of-use assets of approximately $52.0 million, lease liabilities of $54.4 million (after adjustments for prepayments and accrued lease payments recognised as at 30 June 2019) and deferred tax assets of $0.7 million. Overall net assets will be approximately $1.6 million lower, and net current assets will be $22.3 million lower due to the presentation of a portion of the liability as a current liability. The Group expects that net profit after tax will decrease by approximately $1.2 million for 2020 as a result of adopting the new rules. Adjusted EBITDA used to measure segment results is expected to increase by approximately $25.2 million, as the operating lease payments were included in EBITDA, but the amortisation of the right-of-use assets and interest on the lease liability are excluded from this measure. Northern Star Resources Limited Limited recognises its direct right to the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of joint operations and its share of any jointly held or incurred assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These have been incorporated in the financial statements under the appropriate headings. Details of the joint operation are set out in note 16(b). (III) CHANGES IN OWNERSHIP INTERESTS The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control as transactions with equity owners of the Group. A change in ownership interest results in an adjustment between the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount of the adjustment to non-controlling interests and any consideration paid or received is recognised in a separate reserve within equity attributable to owners of Northern Star Resources Limited. When the Group ceases to consolidate or equity account for an investment because of a loss of control, joint control or significant influence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. This fair value becomes the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss. (c) Foreign currency translation (I) FUNCTIONAL AND PRESENTATION CURRENCY Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (‘the functional currency’). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollar ($), which is Northern Star Resources Limited’s functional and presentation currency. Operating cash flows will increase and financing cash flows decrease by approximately $23.9 million as repayment of the principal portion of the lease liabilities will be classified as cash flows from financing activities. (d) Impairment of assets Mandatory application date/ Date of adoption by Group The Group will apply the standard from its mandatory adoption date of 1 July 2019. The Group intends to apply the simplified transition approach and will not restate comparative amounts for the year prior to first adoption. Right-of-use assets for property leases will be measured on transition as if the new rules had always been applied. All other right-of-use assets will be measured at the amount of the lease liability on adoption (adjusted for any prepaid or accrued lease expenses). There are no other standards that are not yet effective and that would be expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting years and on foreseeable future transactions. (b) Principles of consolidation (I) SUBSIDIARIES Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains and losses on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Northern Star Resources Limited (‘Company’ or ‘parent entity’) as at 30 June 2019 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. Northern Star Resources Limited and its subsidiaries together are referred to in this financial report as the Group or the consolidated entity. (II) JOINT ARRANGEMENTS Under AASB 11 Joint Arrangements investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures. The classification depends on the contractual rights and obligations of each investor, rather than the legal structure of the joint arrangement. Northern Star Resources Limited has only joint operations. A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and other intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets might be impaired. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any) which is the amount by which the assets carrying value exceeds its recoverable amount. Where the asset does not generate cash in-flows that are independent from other assets, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell (FVLCS) and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses for assets other than goodwill, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or CGU) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. Estimates of quantities of recoverable minerals, production levels, operating costs and capital requirements are sourced from out planning process, including the LOM plans, five-year plans, one-year budgets and CGU-specific studies. The determination of FVLCS for each CGU are considered to be Level 3 fair value measurements in both years, as they are derived from valuation techniques that include inputs that are not based on observable market data. The Group considers the inputs and the valuation approach to be consistent with the approach taken by market participants. 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | FINANCIAL REPORTNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 126 127 25 Summary of significant accounting policies cont’d 25 Summary of significant accounting policies cont’d (g) Rounding of amounts The Company is of a kind referred to ASIC Legislative Instrument 2016/191, relating to the ‘rounding off’ of amounts in the financial statements. Amounts in the financial statements have been rounded off in accordance with the instrument to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, the nearest dollar. (h) Goods and Services Tax (GST) Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense. Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included with other receivables or payables in the Statement of Financial Position. Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flows. (e) Investments and other financial assets (I) CLASSIFICATION From 1 July 2018, the Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories: • • those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through OCI or through profit or loss), and those to be measured at amortised cost. The classification depends on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows. For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or OCI. For investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the Group has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). The Group reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes. (II) MEASUREMENT At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at FVPL are expensed in profit or loss. Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash flows are solely payment of principal and interest. DEBT INSTRUMENTS Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Group’s business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the Group classifies its debt instruments: • Amortised cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition is recognised directly in profit or loss and presented in other gains/(losses) together with foreign exchange gains and losses. Impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. • • FVOCI: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets’ cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at FVOCI. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest income and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognised in profit or loss. When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and recognised in other gains/(losses). Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method. Foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in other gains/(losses) and impairment expenses are presented as separate line item in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. FVPL: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FVOCI are measured at FVPL. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at FVPL is recognised in profit or loss and presented net within other gains/(losses) in the period in which it arises. EQUITY INSTRUMENTS The Group subsequently measures all equity investments at fair value. Where the Group’s management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in OCI, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment. Dividends from such investments continue to be recognised in profit or loss as other income when the Group’s right to receive payments is established. Changes in the fair value of financial assets at FVPL are recognised in other gains/(losses) in the consolidated statement of profit or loss as applicable. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value. (III) IMPAIRMENT From 1 July 2018, the Group assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its debt instruments carried at amortised cost and FVOCI. The Group applies the simplified approach permitted by AASB 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. 2019 ANNUAL REPORT | FINANCIAL REPORTNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 128 2019 (cid:36)(cid:49)(cid:49)(cid:56)(cid:36)(cid:47) (cid:53)(cid:40)(cid:51)(cid:50)(cid:53)(cid:55) (cid:95) I(cid:49)(cid:39)(cid:40)(cid:51)(cid:40)(cid:49)(cid:39)(cid:40)(cid:49)(cid:55) (cid:36)(cid:56)(cid:39)I(cid:55) (cid:50)(cid:53)(cid:519)(cid:54) (cid:53)(cid:40)(cid:51)(cid:50)(cid:53)(cid:55) 129 DIRECTORS’ DECLARATION In the (cid:39)irectors(cid:519) opinion(cid:29) (cid:11)a(cid:12) (cid:55)he financial statements and notes set out on pages (cid:26)(cid:23) to (cid:20)(cid:22)(cid:22) are in according (cid:90)ith the Corporations Act 2001, including(cid:29) (cid:11)i(cid:12) (cid:38)ompl(cid:92)ing (cid:90)ith (cid:36)ccounting (cid:54)tandards, the (cid:38)orporations (cid:53)egulations (cid:21)(cid:19)(cid:19)(cid:20) and other mandator(cid:92) professional reporting re(cid:84)uirements, and (cid:11)ii(cid:12) (cid:42)iving a true and fair vie(cid:90) of the consolidated entit(cid:92)(cid:519)s financial position as at (cid:21)(cid:19) (cid:45)une (cid:21)(cid:19)(cid:20)(cid:28) and of its performance for the (cid:92)ear ended on that date, and (cid:11)(cid:69)(cid:12) (cid:55)here are reasona(cid:69)le grounds to (cid:69)elieve that the (cid:38)ompan(cid:92) (cid:90)ill (cid:69)e a(cid:69)le to pa(cid:92) its de(cid:69)ts as and (cid:90)hen the(cid:92) (cid:69)ecome due and pa(cid:92)a(cid:69)le, and (cid:11)c(cid:12) (cid:36)t the date of this declaration, there are reasona(cid:69)le grounds to (cid:69)elieve that the mem(cid:69)ers of the e(cid:91)tended closed group identified in note (cid:21)(cid:22) (cid:90)ill not (cid:69)e a(cid:69)le to meet an(cid:92) o(cid:69)ligations or lia(cid:69)ilities to (cid:90)hich the(cid:92) are, or ma(cid:92) (cid:69)ecome, su(cid:69)(cid:77)ect (cid:69)(cid:92) the virtue of the deed of cross guarantee described in note 23.

Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report for the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. y l b y a s a r o f D A P c L u a r P t D l S N s L L i a b i l i t i m i t e d c h e m e p p r o v e d n d e r o f e s s i o n a t a n d a r d e g i s l a t i o n .

Further details of the key assumptions applied by management as part of the acquisition accounting, by material asset class is disclosed in Note 13. Judgement is required by management in assessing the fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities including: assumptions relating to forecast cash flows, including ore volumes and grades, life of mine, operating costs and gold price; assumptions relating to the useful lives and residual values applicable to plant and equipment; timing and quantum of deferred taxes; scope and quantum of costs, and timing activities; and calculation of discount rates applied to each valuation. rehabilitation the of Our procedures, performed in conjunction with our valuation specialists, included but were not limited to: liabilities associated with reviewing the purchase contract to understand the nature of the entities being acquired and the consideration payable for the acquisition; obtaining a copy of the external valuation report to assess the determination of the fair values of the assets and the acquisition; assessing the independence, competence and objectivity of experts used by management; assessing the identification of assets and liabilities acquired, and the methodologies and assumptions utilised by management and their experts in relation to the following: the appropriateness of Property, plant and equipment: assessing key assumptions for reasonableness including residual values of the assets and life of mine; Mine properties: assessing assumptions for reasonableness, such as life of mine, gold price, processing costs, grades and ore volumes, as well as the method used in determining the fair values; Rehabilitation Provision: agreeing rehabilitation cost estimates to underlying support, which included reports from external experts; Taxation: assessing the calculation of tax and the recognition of deferred taxes. Assessing the weighted average return on assets (WARA) analysis for reasonableness that was performed by management’s external expert to check the allocation between property, plant and equipment and mine properties; Evaluating discount rates used by assessing the cost of capital applied in each valuation by comparing them to market data and industry research. We also assessed the appropriateness of the disclosures included in Note 13 to the financial statements. As at 30 June 2019 the carrying value of mine properties amounts to $356.361 million as disclosed in Note 9(c). During the year the Group incurred $144.604 million of to mine capital expenditure properties related amortisation expenses of $165.340 million. related recognised and The accounting for underground mining operations includes a number of estimates and judgements, including: the allocation of mining costs between operating and capital expenditure; and the units of determination of production used to amortise mine properties. A key driver of the allocation of costs between operating and capital expenditure is the physical mining data associated with the different underground mining activities including the development of declines, lateral and vertical development, as well as capital non-sustaining costs. Rehabilitation provision As at 30 June 2019 a rehabilitation provision of $219.551 million has been recognised as disclosed in Note 9(g). Judgement is required in the determination of the rehabilitation provision, including: assumptions relating to the manner rehabilitation will be in which undertaken, scope and quantum of costs, and timing activities. rehabilitation the of In respect of the allocation of mining costs our procedures included, but were not limited to: obtaining an understanding and testing of the key controls management has in place in relation to the capitalisation of underground mining expenditure and the production of physical underground mining data; and assessing the appropriateness of the allocation of costs between operating and capital expenditure based on the nature of the underlying activity, and recalculating the allocation based on the underlying physical data. In respect of the Group’s unit of production amortisation calculations our procedures included, but were not limited to: obtaining an understanding of the key controls management has in place in relation to the calculation of the unit of production amortisation rate; testing the mathematical accuracy of the rates applied; and agreeing the inputs to source documentation, including: - the allocation of contained ounces to the specific mine properties; the contained ounces to the applicable reserves and resources statement; and the anticipated development expenditure to life of mine models, which were assessed for reasonableness compared to historical development expenditure for the respective operations. - - We also assessed the appropriateness of the disclosures included in Note 9(c) to the financial statements. Our procedures included, but were not limited to: obtaining an understanding of the key controls management has in place to estimate the rehabilitation provision; agreeing rehabilitation cost estimates to underlying support, including where applicable reports from external experts; assessing the independence, competence and objectivity of experts used by management; confirming the closure and related rehabilitation dates are consistent with the latest estimates of life of mines; comparing the inflation and discount rates to available market information; and testing the mathematical accuracy of the rehabilitation provision.

The other information comprises the information included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2019, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report. As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as intentional omissions, involve collusion, fraud may misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. forgery, Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors. Conclude on the appropriateness of the director’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group’s audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. Report on the Remuneration Report Opinion on the Remuneration Report We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 44 to 72 of the Director’s Report for the year ended 30 June 2019. In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of Northern Star Resources Limited, for the year ended 30 June 2019, complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
