4. Resolution 3 – Ratification of Shares under the Controlled Placement Agreement

4.1 Background

On 31 January 2018, the Company announced that it had entered into a Controlled Placement Agreement (CPA) with Acuity Capital. The CPA provides Aruma with up to $2 million of standby equity capital over a 24-month period. Aruma retains control of all aspects the placement process: having sole discretion as to whether or not to utilise the CPA facility, the quantum of issued shares, the minimum issue price of shares and the timing of each placement tranche (if any). There are no requirements on Aruma to utilise the CPA facility and the Company may terminate the CPA at any time, without cost or penalty. Acuity Capital and the CPA do not place any restrictions at any time on Aruma raising capital through other methods. If Aruma does decide to utilise the CPA facility, the Company is able to set a floor price (at its sole discretion) and the final issue price will be calculated as the greater of that floor price set by Aruma and a 10% discount to a value weighted average price over a period of Aruma's choosing. As collateral for the CPA, the Company issued 20,000,000 Shares from its Listing Rule 7.1 capacity, at nil consideration to Acuity Capital (Collateral Shares). The Company may, at any time, cancel the CPA and buy back the Collateral Shares for no consideration (subject to shareholder approval). The Collateral Shares were issued on 2 February 2018.

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the 20,000,000 Collateral Shares.

4.2 General

Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to 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% placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

11. Resolution 11 – Approval for Additional Placement Capacity

11.1 General

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 permits entities to issue 15% of its issued capital without shareholder approval in a 12month period, subject to a number of exceptions.

Aruma Resources Limited Notice of Annual General Meeting and Explanatory Statement

12

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A permits eligible entities, which have obtained shareholder approval by special resolution, to issue Equity Securities up to an additional 10% of its issued capital by placements over a 12month period after the annual general meeting ("Additional Placement Capacity").

The Company seeks Shareholder approval under this Resolution to be able to issue Equity Securities under the Additional Placement Capacity. The exact number of Equity Securities to be issued is not fixed and will be determined in accordance the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (set out below).

11.2 Requirements of ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

(a) Eligible entities

An eligible entity for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. With a market capitalisation of approximately $3.7 million based on a Share price of 0.7 cents, the Company is an eligible entity.

(b) Shareholder approval

Shareholders must approve the Additional Placement Capacity by special resolution at the annual general meeting. A resolution for the Additional Placement Capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A cannot be put at any other shareholder meeting.

(c) Equity Securities

Equity Securities issued under the Additional Placement Capacity must be in the same class as an existing class of Equity Securities of the Company that are quoted on ASX.

As at the date of this Notice, the Company has only one class of Equity Securities quoted on ASX being fully paid ordinary Shares. The Company also has unquoted Options on issue.

(d) Formula for calculating number of Equity Securities that may be issued under the Additional Placement Capacity

If this Resolution is passed, the Company may issue or agree to issue, during the 12-month period after this Meeting, the number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:

(AxD)-E

A The number of shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or
agreement:

plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months under
an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2;

plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the 12
months;

plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months with the
approval of shareholders under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.4;

less the number of fully paid shares cancelled in the 12 months.
D 10%
E 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 shareholders under ASX Listing
Rules 7.1 or 7.4.
  • (e) Interaction between ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A

The Additional Placement Capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A is in addition to the Company's 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

The Company has 522,820,317 Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice. If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be permitted to issue, a maximum of (as at the date of this Notice):

Aruma Resources Limited Notice of Annual General Meeting and Explanatory Statement

13

  • 78,423,048 Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1; and

  • 52,282,032 Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.

The actual number of Equity Securities that the Company will be permitted to issue under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated at the date of issue or agreement to issue the Equity Securities in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out above).

The effect of this Resolution will be to allow the Company to issue securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A without using the Company's placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

11.3 Information for Shareholders as required by ASX Listing Rule 7.3A

  • (a) Minimum price

The issue price of the new Equity Securities will be no lower than 75% of the volume weighted average price (VWAP) for securities in the relevant quoted class calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • the date on which the price of the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or

  • if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 trading days of the date above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

(b) Risk of economic and voting dilution

If this Resolution is passed and the Company issues securities under the Additional Placement Facility, existing Shareholders' voting power in the Company will be diluted.

There is the risk that:

  • the market price for the Company's existing Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the date of issue of the new Equity Securities than on the date of the Meeting; and

  • the new Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price of the Company's existing Equity Securities (in the same class) on the issue date or the new Equity Securities may be issued as part of the consideration for the acquisition of a new asset,

which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the new Equity Securities.

The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of ordinary securities for variable "A" calculated in accordance with the formula in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 as at the date of this Notice.

The table also shows:

  • two examples where variable "A" has increased by 50% and 100%. Variable "A" is based on the number of ordinary securities the Company has on issue. The number of ordinary securities may increase as a result of issues of ordinary securities that do not require Shareholder approval (for example a pro rata entitlement issue) or future placements under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved by Shareholders in the future;

  • two examples of where the issue price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.

This table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

  • The Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the Additional Placement Capacity.

  • No Options are exercised into Shares before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities.

  • 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 Additional Placement Capacity, based on that Shareholder's holding at the date of the Meeting.

  • The table shows only the effect of issues of Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

  • The issue of Equity Securities under the Additional Placement Capacity consists only of Shares. If the issue of Equity Securities includes quoted Options, it is assumed that those Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.

  • The issue price is 0.7 cents, being the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 22 October 2018.

The Company's ability to issue securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A is in addition to its ability to issue securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

  • (c) Placement Period

Shareholder approval of the Additional Placement Capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A is valid from 28 November 2018 (the date of this Meeting) and expires on the earlier of:

  • 28 November 2019, which is 12 months after this Meeting; or

  • the date that Shareholders approve a transaction under ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2 (significant change to nature or scale of activities) or ASX Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of the main undertaking) (the " Placement Period ").

The Company will only issue and allot new securities during the Placement Period. The approval will cease to be valid in the event that shareholders approve a transaction under ASX Listing Rules 11.1.2 or 11.2.

Aruma Resources Limited Notice of Annual General Meeting and Explanatory Statement

(d) Purposes for which the new Equity Securities may be issued

The Company may seek to issue new Equity Securities for the following purposes:

  • cash consideration to raise funds for the acquisition of new assets or investments (including the expenses associated with such acquisitions), continued expenditure on the Company's current assets and operations and for general working capital; or

  • non-cash consideration for acquisition of new resources, assets, investments (including expenses associated with such acquisitions) or for the payment of goods or services provided to the Company. In such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.3.

(e) Allocation policy

The Company's allocation policy for the issue of new Equity Securities under the Additional Placement Capacity will depend on the market conditions existing at the time of the proposed issue. The allottees will be determined at the relevant time having regard to factors such as:

  • the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company, including but not limited to, rights issues or other issues in which existing security holders can participate;

  • the effect of the issue of new securities on the control of the Company;

  • the financial situation and solvency of the Company;

  • advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (as relevant).

As at the date of this Notice the allottees are not known but may include existing substantial Shareholders and/or new Shareholders. No recipients under the Additional Placement Capacity will be a related party or associate of a related party. Existing Shareholders may or may not be entitled to subscribe for any Equity Securities issued under the Additional Placement Capacity and it is possible that their shareholding will be diluted.

If the Additional Placement Capacity is used to acquire new assets or investments, then it is likely that the recipients will be the vendors of the new assets.

The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under ASX Listing Rules 7.1A(4) and 3.10.5A on the issue of any new securities.

(f) Details of Equity Securities issued in the 12 months preceding the date of Meeting

Instructions for Completing Appointment of Proxy Form

  1. In accordance with section 249L of the Corporations Act, a shareholder of the Company who is entitled to attend and cast two or more votes at a general meeting of shareholders is entitled to appoint two proxies. 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.

  3. 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:

  4. 2 directors of the company;

  5. a director and a company secretary of the company; or

  6. 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 sections 129(5) and (6) of the Corporations Act, a document must appear to have been executed in accordance with sections 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 sections 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.

  3. In accordance with section 250BA of the Corporations Act the Company specifies the following for the purposes of receipt of proxy appointments: Registered Office: 108 Forrest Street, Cottesloe, Western Australia, 6011 Fax Number: +61 (8) 9226 3764 Email: [email protected] Postal Address: PO Box 152, West Perth, Western Australia, 6872

by no later than 48 hours prior to the time of commencement of the Meeting.
