6. Approval of Future Issue of Shares

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not issue more than 15% of its issued capital in any 12 month period without first obtaining the approval of its shareholders.

To provide the Company with the flexibility to make future issues of securities during the next 12 months. Resolution 6 seeks such shareholder approval to the issue of up to a maximum of 50,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares. As has been previously announced, the Company is in the process of evaluating a number of investment opportunities.

In compliance with the information requirements of ASX Listing Rule 7.3:

  • (d) the shares, when issued, will rank equally with the Company’s existing shares;

  • (f) the identity of the allottees of the shares is not yet known, and will be determined at the Directors’ discretion; and

  • (g) as described above, a maximum of 50,000,000 shares for which shareholder approval is sought will raise funds (the remainder will be used as consideration for the acquisition of a project).

7. Ratification of the Issue of Shares

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a listed company must not, subject to certain exceptions, issue more than 15% of its issued capital in any 12 month period without shareholder approval.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies a previous issue of securities made without approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, those securities shall be treated as having been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

The Company has made the following share issue for which it seeks shareholder ratification pursuant to Resolution 7:

  • 2 August 2010: the Company issued 750,000 shares in consideration of the Option Agreement for the acquisition of assets in relation to Millrose Joint Venture Exploration Licence 53/600.

Ratification of the issue of the 1,232,050 shares is now sought pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 in order to restore the Company’s ability to issue further securities within the 15% limit without shareholder approval during the next 12 months.

8. Company Employee Option Scheme

On 28 October 1988, the Company adopted an employee option scheme (the ADX Energy Employee Option Scheme). The ADX Employee Option Scheme was subsequently readopted by shareholders on 22 November 1991, 18 November 1994, 28 November 1997, 21 November 2000, 26 November 2004 and 23 November 2007.

The principal provisions of the ADX Employee Option Scheme (as amended) include:

  • the plan will be available to all employees of the Company (including casual and part time employees) and non‐executive directors of the Company (collectively, the Participants);

  • the number of options issued to any Participant, the exercise price and the exercise period of such options shall be determined by the directors of the Company in their sole discretion;

  • the options will be issued for no consideration;

  • options issued under the scheme to directors of the Company will not exceed 5% of the issued share capital of the Company;

  • the resignation of a Participant who has been issued options under the scheme will not affect their right to exercise the options held by them according to their terms;

  • the options are not transferable without the written consent of the directors of the Company;

  • in the event of any reduction or reconstruction of the issued capital of the Company, the exercise price of the options and/or the number of options will be adjusted in accordance with the terms of the scheme;

  • the options shall not participate in any bonus issues of securities unless and until they are exercised; and

  • the options issued under the scheme will be unlisted, but application will be made by the Company for any shares issued upon the exercise of such options to be listed for quotation on ASX.

7

A full copy of the terms of the ADX Employee Share Option Plan (as amended) is set out in schedule 1 to this explanatory memorandum.

Since the ADX Employee Scheme was last re‐adopted by shareholders on 23 November 2007, the Company has issued 13,300,000 options under the scheme.

Resolution 8 seeks shareholder approval to permit future issues under the ADX Employee Option Scheme (as amended) for a period of 3 years from the date of the meeting to be an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides (broadly) that a company must not issue in aggregate securities equal to more than 15% of the issued capital of the Company in any rolling 12 month period unless shareholder approval has been obtained.

If resolution 8 is passed by shareholders, all issues of options under the ADX Employee Option Scheme as amended (and the issue of shares upon the exercise of those options) for a period of 3 years from 15 November 2010 will be excluded from the calculations in determining the number of securities which the Company may issue without shareholder approval under the 15% rule in ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 8 is an ordinary resolution requiring it to be passed by a simple majority of the votes cast by shareholders entitled to vote on it.

Recommendations

The Board believes that the resolutions to be proposed at the Company’s Annual General Meeting are in the best interests of the Company and (except where otherwise stated) unanimously recommends that shareholders vote in favour of each resolution.

Enquiries

Shareholders are invited to contact the Chairman, Mr Ian Tchacos, on (08) 9226 2822 if they have any queries in respect of the matters set out in these documents.

NOTES

  1. A shareholder of the Company entitled to attend and vote is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies.

  2. Where a voting exclusion applies, the Company need not disregard a vote if it is cast by a person as a proxy for a person who is entitled to vote in accordance with the directions on the proxy form or it is cast by the person chairing the meeting as proxy for a person who is entitled to vote, in accordance with a direction on the proxy form to vote as the proxy decides.

How to Vote

You may vote by attending the meeting in person, by proxy or authorised representative.

Proxies

To vote by proxy, please complete and sign the proxy form enclosed with this Notice of Annual General Meeting as soon as possible and either:

Instructions for Completing ‘Appointment of Proxy’ Form

A member entitled to attend and vote at a Meeting is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies to attend and vote on their behalf. Where more than one proxy is appointed, such proxy must be allocated a proportion of the member’s voting rights. If the shareholder appoints two proxies and the appointment does not specify this proportion, each proxy may exercise half the votes.

2.

A duly appointed proxy need not be a member of the Company. In the case of joint holders, all must sign.

Corporate shareholders should comply with the execution requirements set out on the Proxy Form or otherwise with the provisions of Section 127 of the Corporations Act. Section 127 of the Corporations Act provides that a company may execute a document without using its common seal if the document is signed by:

  • 2 directors of the company;

  • a director and a company secretary of the company; or

  • for a proprietary company that has a sole director who is also the sole company secretary – that director.

For the Company to rely on the assumptions set out in Section 129(5) and (6) of the Corporations Act, a document must appear to have been executed in accordance with Section 127(1) or (2). This effectively means that the status of the persons signing the document or witnessing the affixing of the seal must be set out and conform to the requirements of Section 127(1) or (2) as applicable. In particular, a person who witnesses the affixing of a common seal and who is the sole director and sole company secretary of the company must state that next to his or her signature.

  1. Completion of a Proxy Form will not prevent individual shareholders from attending the meeting in person if they wish. Where a shareholder completes and lodges a valid proxy form and attends the meeting in person, then the proxy’s authority to speak and vote for that shareholder is suspended while the shareholder is present at the meeting.

  2. Where a Proxy Form or form of appointment of corporate representative is lodged and is executed under power of attorney, the power of attorney must be lodged in like manner as this proxy.
