EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.
1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND REPORTS
In accordance with the Constitution, the business of the Meeting will include receipt and consideration of the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2017 together with the declaration of the directors, the directors’ report, the Remuneration Report and the auditor’s report.
The Company will not provide a hard copy of the Company’s annual financial report to Shareholders unless specifically requested to do so. The Company’s annual financial report is available on its website at www.metalicity.com.au.
2. RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT
2.1 General
The Corporations Act requires that at a listed company’s annual general meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted must be put to the shareholders. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the company or the directors of the company.
The remuneration report sets out the company’s remuneration arrangements for the directors and senior management of the company. The remuneration report is part of the directors’ report contained in the annual financial report of the company for a financial year.
The chair of the meeting must allow a reasonable opportunity for its shareholders to ask questions about or make comments on the remuneration report at the annual general meeting.
2.2
Voting consequences
A company is required to put to its shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of another meeting of shareholders to consider the appointment of directors of the company ( Spill Resolution ) if, at consecutive annual general meetings, at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report and at the first of those annual general meetings a Spill Resolution was not put to vote. If required, the Spill Resolution must be put to vote at the second of those annual general meetings.
If more than 50% of votes cast are in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene a shareholder meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting.
All of the directors of the company who were in office when the directors' report (as included in the company’s annual financial report for the most recent financial year) was approved, other than the managing director of the company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting.
5
3515-01/1591317_4
Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election as directors of the company is approved will be the directors of the company.
2.3 Previous voting results
At the Company’s previous annual general meeting the votes cast against the remuneration report considered at that annual general meeting were less than 25%. Accordingly, the Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Annual General Meeting.
3. RESOLUTION 2 – RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTOR – MATTHEW LONGWORTH
3.1 General
ASX Listing Rule 14.4 provides that, other than a managing director, a director of an entity must not hold office (without re-election) past the third AGM following the director’s appointment or 3 year, whichever is the longer. However, where there is more than one managing director, only one is entitled not to be subject to re-election.

Matthew Longworth, who has served as a director since 2014, retires by rotation and seeks re-election.

4. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL OF 10% PLACEMENT CAPACITY– SHARES
4.1 General
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an Eligible Entity (as defined below) may seek shareholder approval by special resolution passed at an annual general meeting to have the capacity to issue up to that number of Equity Securities (as defined below) equal to 10% of its issued capital ( 10% Placement Capacity ) without using that company’s existing 15% annual placement capacity granted under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
An Eligible Entity is one that, as at the date of the relevant annual general meeting:
-
(a) is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index; and
-
(b) has a maximum market capitalisation (excluding restricted securities and securities quoted on a deferred settlement basis) of $300,000,000.
As at the date of this Notice, the Company is an Eligible Entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a current market capitalisation of $23.613m (based on the number of Shares on issue and the closing price of Shares on the ASX on 18 October 2017).
An Equity Security is a share, a unit in a trust, a right to a share or unit in a trust or option, an option over an issued or unissued security, a convertible security, or, any security that ASX decides to classify as an equity security.
Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Capacity must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted Equity Securities.
As at the date of this Notice, the Company currently has one (1) class of quoted Equity Securities on issue, being the Shares (ASX Code: MCT).
The exact number of quoted Equity Securities that the Company may issue under an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated according to the following formula:
(A x D) – E
Where:
A is the number of Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:
7
3515-01/1591317_4
-
(a) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2;
-
(b) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the previous 12 months;
-
(c) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months with approval of holders of Shares under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid ordinary shares under the entity’s 15% placement capacity without shareholder approval; and
-
(d) less the number of Shares cancelled in the previous 12 months.
D
is 10%.
E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of holders of Ordinary Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.
If Shareholders approve Resolution 3, the number of Equity Securities the Company may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2.
Resolution 3 is a special resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 3 for it to be passed.
4.2 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1A
Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to this Resolution 3:
(a) Minimum Price
The minimum price at which the Equity Securities may be issued is 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 ASX trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:
-
(i) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or
-
(ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 ASX trading days of the date in section 4.2(a)(i), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
(b) Date of Issue
The Equity Securities may be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity commencing on the date of the Meeting and expiring on the first to occur of the following:
- (i) 12 months after the date of this Meeting; and
(ii) the date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under ASX Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of the Company’s activities) or 11.2 (disposal of the
8
3515-01/1591317_4
Company’s main undertaking) (after which date, an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A ceases to be valid),
( 10% Placement Capacity Period ).
(c) Risk of voting dilution
Any issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue.
If Resolution 3 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Capacity, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below.
The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A(2), on the basis of the market price of Shares and the number of Equity Securities on issue as at 18 October 2017.
The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 10% Placement Capacity.
| Number of Shares on Issue (Variable ‘A’ in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A2) |

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dilution | ||||

*The number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a prorata rights issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
9
3515-01/1591317_4
The table above uses the following assumptions:
-
There are currently 499,439,136 Shares on issue.
-
The issue price set out above is the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 18 October 2017.
-
The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity.
-
The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (other than those requiring ratification under this Notice, which, for the purposes of the above table the Company has assumed will be ratified).
-
The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity consists only of Shares. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities. If the issue of Equity Securities includes quoted Options, it is assumed that those quoted Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.
-
The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.
-
This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
-
The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.
-
The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Capacity, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.
Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:
-
(i) the market price for the Company’s Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and
-
(ii) the Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Shares on the date of issue.
(d) Purpose of Issue under 10% Placement Capacity
The Company may issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for the following purposes:
-
(i) as cash consideration in which case the Company intends to use funds raised for the acquisition of new resources, assets and investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition), continued exploration expenditure on the Company’s current assets, general working capital, etc; or
-
(ii) as non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new resources assets and investments including previously announced acquisitions, in such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by listing Rule 7.1A.3.
The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A(4) and 3.10.5A upon issue of any Equity Securities.
(e) Allocation policy under the 10% Placement Capacity
10
3515-01/1591317_4
The recipients of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been determined. However, the recipients of Equity Securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company.
The Company will determine the recipients at the time of the issue under the 10% Placement Capacity, having regard to the following factors:
-
(i) the purpose of the issue;
-
(ii) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;
-
(iii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;
-
(iv) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company;
-
(v) prevailing market conditions; and
-
(vi) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).
Further, if the Company is successful in acquiring new resources, assets or investments, it is likely that the recipients under the 10% Placement Capacity will be vendors of the new resources, assets or investments.
(f)
Previous approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A
The Company previously obtained approval from its Shareholders pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 25 November 2016 ( Previous Approval ).
The Company has issued 13,888,888 Shares pursuant to the Previous Approval.
During the 12 month period preceding the date of the Meeting, being on and from 25 November 2016, the Company issued a total of 68,283,370 Shares and 58,766,670 Options which represents approximately 24.12% of the total diluted number of Equity Securities on issue in the Company on 25 November 2016, which was 528,694,654 Equity Securities.
Further details of the issues of Equity Securities by the Company during the 12 month period preceding the date of the Meeting are set out in Schedule 1.
(g) Compliance with ASX Listing Rules 7.1A.4 and 3.10.5A
When the Company issues Equity Securities pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity, it must give to ASX:
(i) a list of the recipients of the Equity Securities and the number of Equity Securities issued to each (not for release to the market), in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A.4; and
11
3515-01/1591317_4
(ii) the information required by Listing Rule 3.10.5A for release to the market.
4.3 Voting Exclusion
A voting exclusion statement is included in this Notice. As at the date of this Notice, the Company has not invited any existing Shareholder to participate in an issue of Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. Therefore, no existing Shareholders will be excluded from voting on Resolution 3.
5. RESOLUTIONS 4 AND 5 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE (SHARES AND OPTIONS)
5.1 General
On 16 January 2017, the Company issued 5,000,000 Shares and 5,000,000 Options in consideration for the acquisition of Lynas Find North Lithium Project. The issue was undertaken without Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.
Resolutions 4 and 5 seek Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of those Shares and Options ( Ratification ).
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.
ASX Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1) those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
By ratifying this issue, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.
5.2
Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.4
Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to the ratification sought under these Resolutions:

On 20 September 2017, the Company issued 13,888,888 Shares at a deemed issue price of $0.036 per Share in consideration for the acquisition of the Company’s Napier Range Zinc Project.
13,888,888 Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A which was approved by Shareholders at the annual general meeting held on 25 November 2016.
Resolution 9 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of those Shares ( Ratification ).
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that in addition to issues permitted without prior shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, an entity that is eligible and obtains shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A may issue or agree to issue during the period for which the approval is valid a number of quoted equity securities which represents 10% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period as adjusted in accordance with the formula in ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
Where an eligible entity obtains shareholder approval to increase its placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A then any ordinary securities issued under that additional placement capacity:
-
(i) will not be counted in variable “A” in the formula in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A; and
-
(ii) are counted in variable “E”,
until their issue has been ratified under ASX Listing Rule 7.4 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1A) or 12 months has passed since their issue.
14
3515-01/1591317_4
A summary of ASX Listing Rule 7.1A is set out in Section 4.
By ratifying this issue, the base figure (i.e. variable “A”) in which the Company’s 15% and 10% annual placement capacities are calculated will be a higher number which in turn will allow a proportionately higher number of securities to be issued without prior Shareholder approval. Although, it is noted that the Company’s use of the 10% annual placement capacity following this Meeting remains conditional on Resolution 3 being passed by the requisite majority.
8.2 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.4

Measurement inputs include the Share price on the measurement date, the exercise price, the term of the Option, the impact of dilution, the expected volatility of the underlying Share (based on weighted average historic volatility adjusted for changes expected due to publicly available information), the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the Option. No account is taken of any performance conditions included in the terms of the Option other than market based performance conditions (i.e. conditions linked to the price of Shares).
