3 LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

Dear Eligible Shareholder,

I am pleased to offer you an opportunity to participate in this Rights Issue to acquire New Shares in Artemis on the basis of one (1) New Share for every two (2) Shares held at the Record Date.

The Offer extends to give all Eligible Shareholders the opportunity to acquire shares proportionate to their shareholding. Eligible Shareholders can also apply for Shortfall Securities over and above their entitlement. The issue price is $0.003 per New Share.

Shareholders who participate in the Rights Issue will also receive 1 free attaching New Option for every 4 New Shares subscribed for under the Rights Issue, with an exercise price of $0.003 and expiring on 31 July 2016.

The Offer is non-renounceable. This means that you will not be able to trade your rights to these Shares. Details of the Offer and investment considerations relating to the Offer are set out in the Prospectus. I recommend that you read this document carefully.

The Rights Issue is partly underwritten by Armengael Investments Limited, up to $542,255.

As recently announced, Artemis has acquired 51% of the Weerianna project in the West Pilbara. The consideration was 76,562,500 Artemis shares, as well as the issue to the vendor (subject to shareholder approval) of 76,562,500 unlisted Artemis share options (exercise price $0.003, expiration date 30 June 2016). This acquisition complements the Company’s West Pilbara Project where the Company proposes a major exploration programme in the year ahead focusing on base metals and gold. The Company is close to concluding a Native Title Agreement in respect of this ground which will enable this programme to commence.

Benefits of the Weerianna gold project include:

  • Existing Inferred Mineral Resource of 70,000oz gold, estimated in accordance with JORC (2012)

  • Historical gold producer in the 1930s

  • Significant exploration upside – open along strike and down dip

  • Granted Mining Lease – allows for possible fast track development

  • Excellent infrastructure - close to the regional centres of Karratha and Roebourne

  • Located adjacent to the North West Coastal Highway

  • Synergies with Artemis’ nearby Carlow Castle gold-copper deposit and other West Pilbara tenements provide potential for cost effective exploration and development

The funds to be raised through this issue we believe will enable the Company to undertake this exploration in the West Pilbara which is receiving renewed attention from a number of key exploration companies exploring for copper, nickel and gold.

The Company has a number of shareholders with less than a marketable parcel of shares. In allocating the shortfall the Company will give preference to these shareholders to allow them to achieve a marketable parcel, thus making their shares tradable.

The Board believes that the Offer terms are attractive and recommends this Rights Issue to you.

Yours sincerely,

5 PURPOSE AND EFFECT OF THE OFFER

5.1 Introduction

The Company is seeking to raise approximately $1.27 million before issue costs under a nonrenounceable pro rata offer to Eligible Shareholders at a price of $0.003 per New Share on the basis of one (1) New Share for every two (2) Existing Shares held as at the Record Date with one (1) free attaching New Option (exercisable at $0.003 on or before 31 July 2016) for every four (4) New Shares issued.

Armengael Investments Limited has agreed to underwrite the Offer for $542,255. See section 8.4 for details.

5.2

The Directors intend to apply the proceeds from the Offer as follows:

General Working Capital 143 439
Total 881 1,615

Page 8

Prospectus - Artemis Resources Limited

In the event the Company raises more than the Underwritten Amount but not the full Subscription, the funds raised (after payment of expenses of the Offer) will be applied proportionally between exploration and working capital.

This table is a statement of current intentions as at the date of this Prospectus. As with any budget, intervening events (including exploration success or failure) and new circumstances have the potential to affect the way funds will be applied. The Board reserves the right to vary the way funds are applied on this basis.

5.3 Weerianna gold project

On 26 June 2014 the Company announced the acquisition of a 51% interest in the Weerianna gold project for 76,562,500 Shares and 76,562,500 Options (with an exercise price of $0.003 and expiry date of 30 June 2016) (subject to Shareholder approval). Completion occurred on 27 June 2014.

On 30 June 2014 the Company announced further information on the Weerianna gold project. The Company is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the 26 June 2014 and 30 June 2014 announcements.

5.4 Top up by Shareholders with less than a marketable parcel

As of 12 May 2014, the Company had 1,646 Shareholders, with 1,085 Shareholders holding less than a marketable parcel (being 166,667 Shares at the last traded price of the Company’s Shares of $0.003) ( Unmarketable Parcel Shareholder ). The large number of Unmarketable Parcel Shareholders adds significant compliance costs to the Company.

The Board has resolved that Shortfall Securities will be issued firstly to eligible Unmarketable Parcel Shareholders so that each eligible Unmarketable Parcel Shareholder will have a marketable parcel. This will provide an opportunity for eligible Unmarketable Parcel Shareholders who are issued Shortfall Securities to sell their holdings on market.

To reduce the number of Unmarketable Parcel Shareholders, the Company may, following the Offer, undertake a sale of the Shares held by Shareholders holding less than a marketable parcel. This will simplify the Company’s share register and significantly reduce compliance costs.

No assurance is given that any sale of non-marketable parcels will take place, or the terms (including price) of any sale. Eligible Unmarketable Parcel Shareholders wishing to realise their Shares should consider applying for Shortfall Securities and then selling their Shares on market.

5.5 Effect of the Offer on the Company’s securities

The effect of the Offer will, assuming that no Options are exercised and that Entitlements are taken up in full, be that:

  • (a) cash reserves will increase by approximately $1,185,000 (after costs);

  • (b) the number of Options on issue will increase from 126,846,952 to 253,296,680; and

  • (c) the number of Shares on issue will increase from 851,597,822 to 1,277,396,733.

5.7 Statement of financial position

Set out in schedule 1 is the unaudited Consolidated Statement of Financial Position of the Company and the unaudited Consolidated Pro-Forma Statement of Financial Position, as at 31 March 2014 and on the basis of the following assumptions:

  • (a) the Offer was effective on 31 March 2014; and

  • (b) no further Shares are issued (including by way of exercise of Options) other than all Shares offered under this Prospectus.

The significant accounting policies upon which the unaudited Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and the unaudited Consolidated Pro-Forma Statement of Financial Position are based are contained in the audited financial report for year ended 30 June 2013.

5.8 Effect on control and potential dilution

(a) Underwriter

The Underwriter will not acquire more than 20% of the Company’s Shares as a result of its underwriting obligation under the Offer.

(b) Others

As the Offer is non-renounceable, the Company has not appointed a nominee for the purposes of section 615 of the Corporations Act and Shareholders may not rely upon item 10 of section 611 of the Corporations Act to have a voting power of 20% or more.

Other than as disclosed in this Prospectus, no person’s voting power in the Company may increase to 20% or more as a result of the issue of New Securities.

(c) Dilution

Shareholders who do not participate in the Offer will have their holdings diluted. Following is a table which sets out the dilutionary effect assuming only the Underwritten Amount is raised (assuming no Options are exercised prior to the Closing Date):

6 RISK FACTORS

Investment in the New Securities is highly speculative as the Company is a resource exploration company. Please consider the risks described below and the information contained in other sections of this Prospectus. You should also consider consulting with your professional advisers before deciding whether or not to apply for the New Securities.

The following is a list of the material risks that may affect the financial position of the Company, the value of an investment in the Company, as well as the Company’s operations.

6.1 Risks specific to the Offer

The minimum amount to be raised under the Offer is $542,255, being the Underwritten Amount. This amount will be sufficient to meet the costs of the Offer and limited exploration. However there is a risk that it may not be sufficient to undertake the Company’s proposed exploration program. There is a risk that, with a limited exploration program, the Company may be required to relinquish or farm-out certain of its tenements.

6.2

Company and industry risks

The risks outlined below are specific to the Company’s operations and to the resource exploration industry in which the Company operates.

(a) Going concern

The Company recorded a net loss of $1,129,860 and a net outflow from operating and investing activities of $1,169,798 for the year ending 30 June 2013. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is principally dependent upon the Company raising additional capital, primarily under the Offer.

As at the date of this Prospectus the Company has total creditors of approximately $400,000. The Company proposes to apply approximately $150,000 from funds raised under the Offer to pay creditors, with the balance of claims to be paid from the sale of the Company’s investments. There is a risk that the sale may not raise sufficient funds to fully pay creditors’ claims, in which case the Company will seek to raise additional capital and/or defer creditors’ claims.

(b) Exploration

Whilst exploration by the Company on its projects justifies further exploration, the Company’s tenements carry exploration risk.

Exploration is a high risk undertaking. The Company does not give any assurance that exploration of its current projects or any future projects will result in the delineation or discovery of an economic mineral resource. Even if an economic mineral resource is identified, there can be no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.

(c) Joint venture

The Company is currently, and may in the future become a party to joint venture agreements governing the exploration and development of its projects. There is a risk that one of the Company’s joint venture partners may default in their joint venture obligations or not act in the best interests of the joint venture. This may have an adverse effect on the interests and prospects of the Company.

Page 13

Prospectus - Artemis Resources Limited

(d) Title risk

Mining tenements are governed by the respective State legislation and each tenement is granted for a specific term and carries with it annual expenditure and reporting commitments as well as other conditions. There is a risk that the Company could lose title to one or more of its tenements if tenement conditions or annual expenditure commitments are not met. Artemis has claimed exemptions from expenditure in respect of West Pilbara tenements E47/1745 and E47/1746 which have been objected to by Donald Kimberley North. The West Australian Mining Warden in a decision dated 8 May 2014 has recommended that the exemptions not be granted. Artemis proposes to make a submission to the West Australian Minister for Mines that the exemptions be granted.

Donald Kimberley North has made an Application for Forfeiture against Artemis’ tenement number E47/1797 in the West Pilbara. The West Australian Mining Warden has heard the application and in a decision dated 8 May 2014 is determining whether a possible shortfall in achieving the minimum expenditure should justify forfeiture of the tenement or a fine. Artemis proposes to make a further submission to the Warden.

(e) Weerianna Gold Project

On 26 June 2014 the Company announced the acquisition of a 51% interest in the Weerianna Gold Project with an option to acquire a further 29% (total 80%). Completion occurred on 27 June 2014. The project, which consists of one mining lease 47/223 is subject to a plaint. The Company is confident that the plaint will be dismissed, and will vigorously defend the proceedings. However, there is a risk that the plaint is successful, in which case the securities issued in consideration for the project will be cancelled.

(f) Future capital needs and additional funding

The funds raised by the Offer will primarily be used to fund exploration on the Company’s projects and for working capital. There is a risk that these funds will not be sufficient to complete the proposed exploration and that further funding will be required.

The Company’s ability to raise further capital (equity or debt) within an acceptable time, of a sufficient amount and on terms acceptable to the Company will vary according to a number of factors, including prospectivity of projects (existing and future), the results of exploration, subsequent feasibility studies, development and mining, stock market and industry conditions and the price of relevant commodities and exchange rates.

No assurance can be given that future funding will be available to the Company on favourable terms (or at all). If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms the Company may not be able to further develop its projects and it may impact on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

(g) Commodity prices

Commodities prices fluctuate and are affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company. These factors include worldwide and regional supply and demand for commodities, general world economic conditions and the outlook for

Page 14

Prospectus - Artemis Resources Limited

interest rates, inflation and other economic factors on both a regional and global basis. These factors may have a positive or negative effect on the Company's exploration, project development and production plans and activities, together with the ability to fund those plans and activities.

(h) Environmental

The Company's projects are subject to rules and regulations regarding environmental matters and the discharge of hazardous wastes and materials. As with all mineral projects, the Company’s projects are expected to have a variety of environmental impacts should development proceed. Development of any of the Company's projects will be dependent on the Company satisfying environmental guidelines and, where required, being approved by government authorities.

The Company intends to conduct its activities in an environmentally responsible manner and in accordance with all applicable laws, but may still be subject to accidents or other unforeseen events which may compromise its environmental performance and which may have adverse financial implications.

(i) Key personnel

The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations and the Company’s strategic management depends substantially on its senior management and key personnel. There can be no assurance given that there will be no detrimental impact on the Company if one or more of these employees cease their employment.

6.3 General investment risks

The risks outlined below are some of the general risks that may affect an investment in the Company.

(a) Securities investments and share market conditions

There are risks associated with any securities investment. The prices at which the securities trade may fluctuate in response to a number of factors.

Furthermore, the stock market, and in particular the market for exploration and mining companies may experience extreme price and volume fluctuations that may be unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of such companies. These factors may materially adversely affect the market price of the securities of the Company regardless of the Company's operational performance. Neither the Company nor the Directors warrant the future performance of the Company, or any return of an investment in the Company.

(b) Liquidity risk

The market for the Company’s Shares may be illiquid. As a consequence investors may be unable to readily exit or realise their investment.

(c) Economic risk

Changes in both Australia and world economic conditions may adversely affect the financial performance of the Company. Factors such as inflation, currency fluctuations, interest rates, industrial disruption and economic growth may impact on future operations and earnings.

If you take no action, your Entitlement will lapse. You will receive no benefit or New Securities and your Entitlement will become available as Shortfall Securities.

The number of Existing Shares you hold as at the Record Date and the rights attached to those Existing Shares will not be affected if you choose not to accept any of your Entitlement.

Page 16

Prospectus - Artemis Resources Limited

The completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form must be accompanied by a cheque, bank draft or money order made payable to ‘ Artemis Resources Limited ’ and crossed ‘Not Negotiable’ for the appropriate application money in Australian dollars calculated at $0.003 per New Share accepted. Your cheque, bank draft or money order must be paid in Australian currency and be drawn on an Australian branch of an Australian financial institution. The Company will present the cheque or bank draft on or around the day of receipt of the Entitlement and Acceptance Form. You must ensure that your cheque account has sufficient funds to cover your payment, as your cheque will be presented for payment on receipt. If your bank dishonours your cheque your application will be rejected. Dishonoured cheques will not be represented.

If the amount of your cheque(s), bank draft(s) or money order(s) for application money (or the amount for which those cheque(s) or bank draft(s) clear in time for allocation) is insufficient to pay for the number of New Securities you have applied for in your Entitlement and Acceptance Form, you may be taken to have applied for such lower number of New Securities as your cleared application money will pay for (and to have specified that number of New Securities in your Entitlement and Acceptance Form) or your Application may be rejected.

The Entitlement and Acceptance Form must be received by the Company at the following address by no later than 5.00 pm (WST) on the Closing Date:

By Post To: By Delivery To:
Artemis Resources Limited Artemis Resources Limited
c/- Security Transfer Registrars Pty Ltd c/- Security Transfer Registrars Pty Ltd
PO Box 535 770 Canning Highway
Applecross WA 6953 Applecross WA 6153

BPAY

Alternatively, if you are paying by BPay, refer to your personalised instructions on your Entitlement and Acceptance Form. Shareholders who wish to pay by BPay must ensure that payment is received by no later than 5pm AEST (3pm (WST)) on the Closing Date.

You should be aware that your own financial institution may implement earlier cut-off times with regard to electronic payment, and you should therefore take this into consideration when making payment. It is your responsibility to ensure that funds submitted through BPAY are received by 5pm AEST (3pm (WST)) on the Closing Date.

If you have more than one shareholding and consequently receive more than one Entitlement and Acceptance Form, when taking up your Entitlement in respect of one of those shareholdings only use the Customer Reference Number specific to that shareholding as set out in the applicable Entitlement and Acceptance Form. Do not use the same Customer Reference Number for more than one of your shareholdings. This can result in your application monies being applied to your Entitlement in respect of only one of your shareholdings (with the result that any application in respect of your remaining shareholdings will not be recognised as valid).

The Company shall not be responsible for any postal or delivery delays or delay in the receipt of the BPay payment.

Prospectus - Artemis Resources Limited

7.6 Entitlement and Acceptance Form is binding

A completed and lodged Entitlement and Acceptance Form together with a cheque, bank draft or money order for the application moneys, or by making a payment in respect of an Application by BPay, constitutes a binding application to acquire New Securities on the terms and conditions set out in this Prospectus and, once lodged, cannot be withdrawn.

By completing and returning your Entitlement and Acceptance Form with the requisite application monies, or by making a payment in respect of an Application by BPay, you will be deemed to have represented that you are an Eligible Shareholder. In addition, you will also be deemed to have represented and warranted on behalf of yourself or each person on whose account you are acting that the law in your place of residence and/or where you have been given the Prospectus, does not prohibit you from being given the Prospectus and that you:

  • (a) agree to be bound by the terms of the Offer;

  • (b) declare that all details and statements in the Entitlement and Acceptance Form are complete and accurate;

  • (c) declare that you are over 18 years of age and have full legal capacity and power to perform all your rights and obligations under the Entitlement and Acceptance Form;

  • (d) authorise the Company and its respective officers or agents, to do anything on your behalf necessary for the New Securities to be issued to you, including to act on instructions of the Company’s share registry upon using the contact details set out in the Entitlement and Acceptance Form;

  • (e) declare that you are the current registered holder of Shares and are an Australian or New Zealand resident, and you are not in the United States or a US Person, or acting for the account or benefit of a US Person;

  • (f) acknowledge that the information contained in, or accompanying, the Prospectus is not investment or financial product advice or a recommendation that New Securities are suitable for you given your investment objectives, financial situation or particular needs; and

  • (g) acknowledge that the New Securities have not, and will not be, registered under the securities laws in any other jurisdictions outside Australia and New Zealand and accordingly, the New Securities may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred except in accordance with an available exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of applicable securities laws in particular the US Securities Act.

The Entitlement and Acceptance Form does not need to be signed to be a valid application. An Application will be deemed to have been accepted by the Company upon allotment of the New Securities.

If the Entitlement and Acceptance Form is not completed correctly or if the accompanying payment of the application moneys is for the wrong amount, it may still be treated as a valid application for New Securities. The Directors’ decision whether to treat an acceptance as valid and how to construe, amend or complete the Entitlement and Acceptance Form is final. However, an Applicant will not be treated as having applied for more Shares than is indicated by the amount of the cheque for the application moneys.

8.5 Entitlement to Offer

The Offer is made to Eligible Shareholders, who are those Shareholders that:

Page 20

Prospectus - Artemis Resources Limited

  • (a) are the registered holder of Shares as at 5pm (WST) on the Record Date; and

  • (b) have a registered address in Australia or New Zealand.

8.6

Rights trading

The Offer is non-renounceable. This means that the rights of Eligible Shareholders to subscribe for New Securities under this Prospectus are not transferable and there will be no trading of rights on ASX. Eligible Shareholders who choose not to take up their rights will receive no benefit and their shareholding in the Company will be diluted as a result.

8.7 Shortfall Securities

Any New Securities not applied for under the Offer will become Shortfall Securities. Subject to the terms set out below, the Directors reserve the right to issue any Shortfall Securities at their discretion within 3 months after the Closing Date ( Shortfall Offer ).

The Shortfall Offer is, to the extent it is made in Australia, made under this Prospectus. To the extent the Shortfall Offer is made outside Australia, the Shortfall Offer is made without disclosure, a prospectus, lodgement, filing or registration, or other requirements of any applicable securities law, and only in circumstances where it is lawful to do so (such as to institutional or sophisticated investors).

Eligible Shareholders may apply for Shortfall Securities by completing the accompanying Entitlement and Acceptance Form in accordance with the instructions set out on that form. Other investors who are not Eligible Shareholders may apply for Shortfall Securities using the Shortfall Application Form attached to this Prospectus. Persons outside Australia doing so represent to the Company that they can apply for Shortfall Securities in circumstances which do not require the offer for Shortfall Securities or this Prospectus to be registered.

It is possible that there may be few or no Shortfall Securities available for issue, depending on the level of take up of Entitlements by Shareholders. The Company will allocate Shortfall Securities as follows:

  • (a) firstly, to Shareholders who apply for Shortfall Securities and who hold less than a marketable parcel (to the extent required for them to each have a marketable parcel);

  • (b) secondly, to Shareholders who apply for Shortfall Securities, with oversubscriptions to be scaled back in proportion to applications;

  • (c) thirdly, to the Underwriter or its nominee; and

  • (d) then, at the Directors’ discretion.

Subject to the above, the Directors reserve the right at their absolute discretion to reject any application for Shortfall Securities or to issue a lesser number of Shortfall Securities than that applied for, and it is an express term of the Shortfall Offer that applicants for Shortfall Securities will be bound to accept a lesser number of Shortfall Securities allocated to them than applied for. If a lesser number is allocated, excess application money will be refunded without interest as soon as practicable after the Closing Date.

Prospectus - Artemis Resources Limited

8.8 Offer outside Australia and New Zealand

This Prospectus does not constitute an offer of securities in any jurisdiction where, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to issue the Prospectus or make the Offer. No action has been taken to register or qualify the New Securities or the Offer or otherwise to permit an offering of the New Securities in any jurisdiction outside Australia and New Zealand.

This document is not for publication or distribution, directly or indirectly, in or into the United States of America (including its territories and possessions, any state of the US and the District of Columbia). This document is not an offer of securities for sale into the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, US Persons. The securities referred to herein have not been and will not be registered under the US Securities Act of 1933 , as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, US Persons. No public offering of securities is being made in the United States.

Recipients may not send or otherwise distribute this Prospectus or the Entitlement and Acceptance Form to any person outside Australia or New Zealand.

8.9 Treatment of Overseas Shareholders

Given the small number of Shareholders with registered addresses outside Australia or New Zealand and the cost of complying with applicable regulations in those jurisdictions, the Company has decided that it would be unreasonable to extend the Offer to any Shareholder, as at the Record Date, whose registered address is not situated in Australia and New Zealand. The Prospectus will not be sent to those Shareholders.

The Offer contained in this Prospectus to Eligible Shareholders with registered addresses in New Zealand is made in reliance on the Securities Act (Overseas Companies) Exemption Notice 2013 (New Zealand) . Members of the public in New Zealand who are not existing Shareholders on the Record Date are not entitled to apply for any New Securities. This Prospectus has not been registered, filed or approved by any New Zealand regulatory authority. This Prospectus is not an investment statement or prospectus under New Zealand law and is not required to, and may not, contain all the information that an investment statement or prospectus under New Zealand law is required to contain.

Recipients may not send or otherwise distribute this Prospectus or the Entitlement and Acceptance Form to any person outside Australia or New Zealand (other than to Eligible Shareholders).

8.10 Beneficial holders, nominees, trustees and custodians

The foreign selling restrictions under the Offer summarised in section 8.9 of this Prospectus apply to the underlying beneficial holder. Nominees, trustees and custodians must not apply on behalf of any beneficial holder that would not itself be an Eligible Shareholder. Shareholders who are nominees, trustees or custodians are advised to seek independent advice as to how they should proceed. Shareholders who hold Shares on behalf of persons whose registered address is not in Australia or New Zealand are responsible for ensuring that applying for New Securities does not breach securities laws in the relevant overseas jurisdictions.

Nominees and custodians that hold Shares should note that the Offer is available only to Eligible Shareholders. The Company is not required to determine whether or not any

Page 22

Prospectus - Artemis Resources Limited

registered holder is acting as a nominee or the identity or residence of any beneficial owners of securities. If any nominee or custodian is acting on behalf of a foreign person, that holder, in dealing with its beneficiary, will need to assess whether indirect participation by the beneficiary in the Offer is compatible with applicable foreign laws.

8.11 Allotment and application money

New Securities will be issued only after all application money has been received and ASX has granted permission for the New Securities to be quoted. It is expected that New Securities will be issued on 29 July 2014 and normal trading of the New Securities on ASX is expected to commence on 30 July 2014.

All application moneys will be deposited into a separate bank account of the Company and held in trust for Applicants until the Shares are issued or application moneys returned. Any interest that accrues will be retained by the Company and will not be paid to Applicants.

8.12 Quotation

The Company will apply to ASX within 7 days after the date of this Prospectus for quotation of the New Shares offered by this Prospectus on ASX. If ASX does not grant permission for the quotation of the New Shares offered under this Prospectus within 3 months after the date of this Prospectus, or such longer period as modified by ASIC, none of the New Shares offered by this Prospectus will be allotted or issued. In these circumstances, all Applications will be dealt with in accordance with the Corporations Act including the return of all application moneys without interest.

A decision by ASX to grant official quotation of the New Shares is not to be taken in any way as an indication of ASX's view as to the merits of the Company or of the New Shares.

Quotation, if granted, of the New Shares offered by this Prospectus will commence as soon as practicable after statements of holdings of the New Shares are dispatched.

8.13 Market prices of Existing Shares on ASX

The highest and lowest market sale price of the Existing Shares, which are on the same terms and conditions as the New Shares being offered under this Prospectus, during the 12 months immediately preceding the lodgment of this Prospectus with the ASIC, and the last market sale price on the date before the lodgment date of this Prospectus, are set out below.

12 month high 12 month low Last market sale price
Price
$0.013 on 21 August 2013

$0.002 on 30 June 2014
$0.003 on 30 June 2014

8.14 CHESS

The Company participates in the Clearing House Electronic Subregister System ( CHESS ). CHESS is operated by ASX Settlement Pty Ltd ( ASPL ), a wholly owned subsidiary of ASX.

Under CHESS, the Company does not issue certificates to investors. Instead, security holders will receive a statement of their holdings in the Company, including New Securities issued under this Prospectus. If an investor is broker sponsored, ASPL will send a CHESS statement.

Page 23

Prospectus - Artemis Resources Limited

The CHESS statement will set out the number of New Securities issued under this Prospectus, provide details of your holder identification number and give the participation identification number of the sponsor.

If you are registered on the issuer sponsored sub register, your statement will be dispatched by the Company’s share registrar and will contain the number of New Securities issued to you under this Prospectus and your security holder reference number.

A CHESS statement or issuer sponsored statement will routinely be sent to Shareholders at the end of any calendar month during which the balance of their shareholding changes. Shareholders may request a statement at any other time, however, a charge may be made for additional statements.

8.15 Taxation and duty implications

The Directors do not consider that it is appropriate to give Shareholders advice regarding the taxation consequences of the Company conducting the Offer or Shareholders applying for New Securities under this Prospectus, as it is not possible to provide a comprehensive summary of the possible taxation positions of Shareholders. The Company, its advisers and officers, do not accept any responsibility or liability for any taxation consequences to Shareholders in the Offer. Shareholders should, therefore, consult their own professional tax adviser in connection with the taxation implications of the Offer.

No brokerage or stamp duty is payable by Applicants in respect of Applications for New Securities under this Prospectus.

8.16 Privacy

The Company collects information about each Applicant provided on an Entitlement and Acceptance Form for the purposes of processing the Application and, if the Application is successful, to administer the Applicant’s security holding in the Company.

By submitting an Entitlement and Acceptance Form, each Applicant agrees that the Company may use the information provided by an Applicant on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form for the purposes set out in this privacy disclosure statement and may disclose it for those purposes to the Share Registry, the Company’s related body corporates, agents, contractors and third party service providers, including mailing houses and professional advisors, and to ASX and regulatory authorities.

If an Applicant becomes a Shareholder, the Corporations Act requires the Company to include information about the Shareholder (including name, address and details of the Shares held) in its public register. The information contained in the Company’s public register must remain there even if that person ceases to be a Shareholder. Information contained in the Company’s register is also used to facilitate distribution payments and corporate communications (including the Company’s financial results, annual reports and other information that the Company may wish to communicate to its security holders) and compliance by the Company with legal and regulatory requirements.

If you do not provide the information required on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form, the Company may not be able to accept or process your Application. An Applicant has the right to gain access to the information that the Company holds about that person subject to certain exceptions under law. A fee may be charged for access. Such requests must be made in writing to the Company’s registered office.

9 RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES ATTACHING TO NEW SECURITIES

9.1 Rights attaching to New Shares

Full details of the rights and liabilities attaching to the Shares are:

  • detailed in the Constitution, a copy of which can be inspected, free of charge, at the registered office of the Company during normal business hours; and

  • regulated by the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules and the general law.

The following is a summary of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to the Shares. This summary is not exhaustive and does not constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. To obtain such a statement, persons should seek independent legal advice.

(a) Voting rights

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares, at a general meeting of members every member has one vote on a show of hands and one vote per Share on a poll. Voting may be in person or by proxy, attorney or representative.

(b) Dividends

Subject to the rights of holders of shares issued with any special rights (at present there are none), the profits of the Company which the Board may from time to time determine to distribute by way of dividend are divisible to each share of a class on which the Board resolves to pay a dividend in proportion to the amount for the time being paid on a share bears to the total issue price of the share. All Shares currently on issue and the shares to be issued under this Prospectus are fully paid Shares.

(c) Future issues of securities

Subject to the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules, the Directors may issue, grant options over, or otherwise dispose of unissued shares in the Company at the times and on the terms that the Directors think proper and a share may be issued with preferential or special rights.

(d) Transfer of Shares

A shareholder may transfer Shares by a market transfer in accordance with any computerised or electronic system established or recognised by ASX for the purpose of facilitating transfers in Shares or by an instrument in writing in a form approved by ASX or the Board.

(e) Meetings and notices

Each shareholder is entitled to receive notice of, and to attend, general meetings for the Company and to receive all notices, accounts and other documents required to be sent to shareholders under the Constitution, the Corporations Act or the Listing Rules. Shareholders may requisition meetings in accordance with the Corporations Act.

  • (f) Liquidation rights

Page 26

Prospectus - Artemis Resources Limited

The Company has one class of shares on issue, ordinary shares, which rank equally in liquidation.

(g) Variation of rights

Subject to the Listing Rules, the rights attached to the Shares may be varied with the consent in writing of shareholders holding three-quarters of the Shares or by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the Shares in accordance with the Corporations Act

(h) Election of directors

There must be a minimum of 3 but not more than 9 Directors. At every annual general meeting one third of the Directors (rounded to the nearest whole number) must retire from office. Any Director who would have held office for more than 3 years if that Director remains in office until the next general meeting must retire. These retirement rules do not apply to certain appointments including the managing director.

(i) Indemnities

To the extent permitted by law the Company must indemnify each past and present Director and secretary against any liability incurred by that person as an officer of the Company and any legal costs incurred in defending an action in respect of such liability.

(j) Winding up

Subject to the Corporations Act, the ASX Listing Rules and any rights or restrictions attached to a class of shares, on a winding up of the Company any surplus must be divided among the shareholders of the Company.

(k) Shareholder liability

The New Shares are fully paid Shares, they are not subject to any calls for money by the Directors and will therefore not become liable for forfeiture.

(l) Alteration to the Constitution

The Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of shareholders present and voting at the general meeting. At least 28 days written notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution must be given.

(m) Listing Rules

If the Company is admitted to trading on the Official List, then despite anything in the Constitution, if the Listing Rules prohibit an act being done, the act must not be done. Nothing in the Constitution prevents an act being done that the Listing Rules require to be done. If the Listing Rules require an act to be done or not to be done, authority is given for that act to be done or not to be done (as the case may be). If the Listing Rules require the Constitution to contain a provision and it does not contain such a provision, the Constitution is deemed to contain that provision. If the Listing Rules require the Constitution not to contain a provision and it contains such a provision, the Constitution is deemed not to contain that provision. If a provision of the Constitution is inconsistent with the Listing Rules, the

Page 27

Prospectus - Artemis Resources Limited

Constitution is deemed not to contain that provision to the extent of the inconsistency.

10 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

10.1 Competent person statement

The information in this Prospectus relates to Exploration Targets, Exploration Results or Mineral Resources is based on information compiled by the Company and reviewed by Mr Trevor Woolfe, a competent person, who is a Member of both the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (“AusIMM”) and the Australian Institute of Geoscientists (“AIG”). Mr Woolfe who is a consultant to the Company has sufficient experience that is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposits under consideration and to the activity being undertaken to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 edition of the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves” (“JORC Code”). Mr Woolfe consents to the inclusion in this report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.

10.2 Continuous disclosure obligations

The Company is a ‘disclosing entity’ (as defined in section 111AC of the Corporations Act) for the purposes of section 713 of the Corporations Act and, as such, is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company is required to continuously disclose any information it has to the market which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Company's securities. The New Shares which will be issued pursuant to this Prospectus are in the same class of Shares that have been quoted on the official list of the ASX during the 12 months prior to the issue of this Prospectus. The New Options which will be issued pursuant to this Prospectus are in the same class of the Company’s existing listed Options.

This Prospectus is a "transaction specific prospectus" to which the special content rules under section 713 of the Corporations Act apply. That provision allows the issue of a more concise prospectus in relation to an offer of securities in a class which has been continuously quoted by ASX in the three months prior to the date of the prospectus. In general terms "transaction specific prospectuses" are only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of New Securities on the Company and the rights attaching to the New Securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses or prospects of the issuing company.

This Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Investors should therefore have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest.

Having taken such precautions and having made such enquires as are reasonable, the Company believes that it has complied with the general and specific requirements of ASX as applicable from time to time throughout the period from lodgment of the Company’s annual financial statements of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2013 to the issue of this Prospectus which required the Company to notify ASX of information about specified events or matters as they arise for the purpose of ASX making that information available to the stock market conducted by ASX.

Prospectus - Artemis Resources Limited

Information that is already in the public domain has not been reported in this Prospectus other than that which is considered necessary to make this Prospectus complete.

The Company, as a disclosing entity under the Corporations Act states that:

  • (a) it is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations;

  • (b) copies of documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company (not being documents referred to in section 1274(2)(a) of the Corporations Act) may be obtained from, or inspected at, the offices of the ASIC; and

  • (c) it will provide a copy of each of the following documents, free of charge, to any person on request between the date of issue of this Prospectus and the Closing Date:

  • (i) the annual financial statements of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2013 being the last financial statements for a financial year, of the Company lodged with the ASIC before the issue of this Prospectus;

  • (ii) any half-year financial report lodged with ASIC by the Company after the lodgement of that annual report and before the lodgement of this Prospectus; and

  • (iii) any continuous disclosure notices given by the Company after the lodgment of the financial statements referred to in paragraph (i) and before the lodgment of this Prospectus with ASIC.
