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 2019 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.

3515-01/2282184_7
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 – MATHEW LONGWORTH

3.4 Board recommendation
The Board supports the re-election of Mathew Longworth and recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.
4. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL OF 10% PLACEMENT CAPACITY
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 equal to 10% of its issued capital ( 10% Placement Capacity ) without using that entity’s existing 15% annual placement capacity granted under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
3515-01/2282184_7
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 $4.34 million (based on the number of Shares on issue and the closing price of Shares on the ASX on 18 October 2019 and excluding any restricted securities that may be on issue).
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 class of quoted Equity Securities on issue, being the Shares (ASX Code: MCT).
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
3515-01/2282184_7
- (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 Company’s main undertaking) (after which date, an approval under ASX 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 2019.
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.
| Dilution | Dilution | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Number of Shares on Issue (Variable A in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A2) |

1,446,419,876 Shares |
144,641,987 Shares |
$433,925 | $867,851 | $1,301,777 |
*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 ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
The table above uses the following assumptions:
-
There are currently 723,209,938 Shares on issue, being the existing Shares as at the date of this Notice of Meeting.
-
The issue price set out above is the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 18 October 2019.
-
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.
3515-01/2282184_7
-
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.
-
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 unless otherwise disclosed.
-
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 exploration, drilling and development of the Kookynie Gold Project and the Yundamindra Gold Project, or the acquisition of new investments and general working capital or to progress the Mandora, Warburton, Pandora and North Fraser Range Projects; or
-
(ii) as non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new resources, assets and investments, in such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.3.
The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under ASX Listing Rules 7.1A(4) and 3.10.5A upon issue of any Equity Securities.
(e) 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 ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.4; and
-
(ii) the information required by ASX Listing Rule 3.10.5A for release to the market.
3515-01/2282184_7
(f) Allocation policy under the 10% Placement Capacity
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.
(g) 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 23 November 2018 ( Previous Approval ).
The Company has not issued any Shares or Options pursuant to the Previous Approval.
During the 12 month period preceding the date of the Meeting, being on and from 25 November 2018, the Company otherwise issued a total of 121,301,746 Shares and 35,014,672 Options which represents approximately 20.47% of the total diluted number of Equity Securities on issue in the Company on 25 November 2018, which was 763,464,598.
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.
The Company has undertaken a non-renounceable entitlement issue pursuant to its entitlement issue prospectus dated 2 September 2019 ( Prospectus ) (the Entitlement Offer ). The Entitlement Offer closed on 16 October 2019. As set out in the Prospectus any entitlements not taken up pursuant to the Entitlement Offer will form the shortfall offer made pursuant to the Prospectus ( Shortfall Offer ). The Shortfall Offer is a separate offer made pursuant to the Prospectus and will remain open
3515-01/2282184_7
for up to three months following the closing date. As announced by the Company on 18 October 2019, there is a balance of 111,129,103 Shares remaining which the Company may place under the Shortfall Offer in accordance with the terms of the Prospectus. Please refer to Section 6.1 for further details of the Shortfall Offer.
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 – ISSUE OF RELATED PARTY PERFORMANCE RIGHTS
5.1 General
The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, to issue a total of 30,625,000 Performance Rights ( Related Party Performance Rights ), comprising:
(a) 15,000,000 Tranche A Performance Rights; and
- (b) 15,625,000 Tranche B Performance Rights,
to Jason Livingstone (Managing Director) and Justin Barton (Chief Financial Officer and Executive Director) or their respective nominees (together, the Related Parties ) as part of their respective remuneration packages.
Resolutions 4 and 5 seek Shareholder approval for the grant of the Related Party Performance Rights to the Related Parties.
5.2 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act
For a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:
(a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and
- (b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,
unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.
The grant of the Related Party Performance Rights constitutes giving a financial benefit and Jason Livingstone and Justin Barton are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.
The Directors (other than Jason Livingstone and Justin Barton) who have a material personal interest in Resolutions 4 and 5) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the grant of the Related Party Performance Rights because the agreement to grant the Related Party Performance Rights, reached as part of the remuneration package for Jason Livingstone and Justin Barton, is considered reasonable remuneration in the circumstances and was negotiated on an arm’s length basis.
3515-01/2282184_7
5.3 ASX Listing Rule 10.11
ASX Listing Rule 10.11 also requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a related party, or a person whose relationship with the entity or a related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained unless an exception in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 applies.
As the grant of the Related Party Performance Rights involves the issue of securities to related parties of the Company, Shareholder approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.11 is required unless an exception applies. It is the view of the Directors that the exceptions set out in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply in the current circumstances.
5.4 Technical Information required by ASX Listing Rule 10.13
Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to Resolutions 4 and 5:
-
(a) the Related Party Performance Rights will be granted to Jason Livingstone and Justin Barton (or their respective nominees);
-
(b) the maximum number of Related Party Performance Rights to be issued is 30,625,000, comprising;
-
(i) ( Resolution 4 ) 10,000,000 Tranche A Performance Rights and 10,000,000 Tranche B Performance Rights to Jason Livingstone (or his nominee); and
-
(ii) ( Resolution 5 ) 5,000,000 Tranche A Performance Rights and 5,625,000 Tranche B Performance Rights to Justin Barton (or his nominee);
-
(c) the Related Party Performance Rights will be granted no later than 1 month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) and it is intended that issue of the Related Party Performance Rights will occur on the same date;
-
(d) the Related Party Performance Rights will be issued for nil cash consideration, accordingly no funds will be raised; and
-
(e) the terms and conditions of the Related Party Performance Rights are set out in Schedule 2.
Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the grant of the Related Party Performance Rights as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the grant of Related Party Performance Rights to Jason Livingstone and Justin Barton (or their respective nominees) will not be included in the use of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
3515-01/2282184_7

The Participation will result in the issue of Shares and Options which constitutes giving a financial benefit and Jason Livingstone and Justin Barton are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.
In respect of Resolution 6, the Directors (other than Jason Livingstone who has a material personal interest in Resolution 6) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the Participation because the Shares and Options will be issued to Mr Livingstone on the same terms as Shares and Options issued to non-related party participants in the Shortfall Offer and as such the giving of the financial benefit is on arm’s length terms.
In respect of Resolution 7, the Directors (other than Justin Barton who has a material personal interest in Resolution 7) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the Participation for the same reason as is given for Mr Livingstone’s Participation above.

(f) Share ranking
All Shares issued upon the vesting of Performance Rights will upon issue rank pari passu in all respects with other existing Shares.

(h) Timing of issue of Shares on Conversion
Within 10 Business Days after the date that the Performance Rights are converted, the Company will:
-
(i) issue the number of Shares required under these terms and conditions in respect of the number of Performance Rights converted;
-
(ii) if required, give ASX a notice that complies with section 708A(5)(e) of the Corporations Act, or, if the Company is unable to issue such a notice, lodge with ASIC a prospectus prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act and do all such things necessary to satisfy section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors; and
-
(iii) if admitted to the official list of ASX at the time, apply for official quotation on ASX of Shares issued pursuant to the conversion of the Performance Rights.
If a notice delivered under paragraph (h)(ii) for any reason is not effective to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors, the Company must, no later than 20 Business Days after becoming aware of such notice being ineffective, lodge with ASIC a prospectus prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act and do all such things necessary to satisfy section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors.

(o) Deferral of conversion if resulting in a prohibited acquisition of Shares
If the conversion of a Performance Right under paragraphs (c) or (n) would result in any person being in contravention of section 606(1) of the Corporations Act ( General Prohibition ) then the conversion of that Performance Right shall be deferred until such later time or times that the conversion would not result in a contravention of the General Prohibition.
