ASX / NEWS RELEASE

31 March 2021

Unmarketable Parcel Sale Facility

Anglo Australian Resources NL (ASX: AAR) (the Company ) announces that it has established an unmarketable parcel sale facility ( Sale Facility ) for shareholders who hold fully paid ordinary shares in the Company ( Shares ) with a market value of less than A$500, and whose registered address is in Australia. The Sale Facility will allow those shareholders to sell their Shares cost effectively, while also assisting the Company to reduce the costs associated with servicing smaller Shareholdings. The Company has established the Sale Facility for the following reasons:

  • To give holders of an unmarketable parcel of Shares (less than A$500) the opportunity to sell their shareholding, without incurring brokerage or handling costs which, in proportion to the value of their investment, may otherwise render a transaction of this size unattractive or uneconomic.

  • To reduce the expense and administration involved in maintaining shareholders with small Shareholdings. Based on the Company’s closing share price on Tuesday 30 March 2021 ( Record Date ) of $0.098, the Company has approximately 2,946 shareholders of which approximately 38% hold less than A$500 in Shares (an unmarketable parcel of fully paid ordinary shares is defined in the ASX Listing Rules to be less than A$500).

Sale Facility

Shareholders who at 5.00pm (WST) on the Record Date held Shares with a market value of less than A$500 (that is a parcel of less than 5,102 Shares based on a Share price of $0.098 on the Record Date) will receive a letter from the Company, in the form attached to this announcement, together with a Share Sale Election Form.

The letter explains that, unless those shareholders notify the Company that they wish to retain their Shares by submitting the Share Sale Election Form, or they hold more than A$500 in value of the Company’s shares at the closing date, those Shares will be sold on-market, and the proceeds remitted to them free from brokerage and handling fees.

Those shareholders who hold less than a marketable parcel and want to retain their Shares must return a completed Share Sale Election Form or make their own arrangements so that they hold more than A$500 in value of the Company’s Shares before the Sale Facility closing date. Otherwise the Shares will be sold.

The price at which Shares will be sold under the Sale Facility will be determined by market conditions and is not fixed. The price received may be different from the market price prevailing at the time.

Dear Shareholder

NOTICE OF INTENTION TO SELL YOUR UNMARKETABLE PARCEL OF SHARES IN ANGLO AUSTRALIAN RESOURCES N.L.

We are writing to advise you that Anglo Australian Resources N.L. ( Company ) has established a share sale Facility ( Sale Facility ) for shareholders that hold less than A$500 in value of the Company's shares ( Unmarketable Parcel ) as at 5.00pm (WST) on Tuesday 30 March 2021 ( Record Date ).

The Company is offering this Sale Facility to assist holders of Unmarketable Parcels who might otherwise find it difficult to sell their shares without incurring brokerage or handling costs, due to the small size of their holdings.

The Company’s registry records show that you held an Unmarketable Parcel based on the closing price of $0.098 on Tuesday 30 March 2021. Unless you advise the Company by 5.00pm (WST) on Tuesday 18 May 2021 ( Closing Date ) that you do not wish to sell your shares, the Company intends to sell your shares through the Sale Facility in accordance with articles 2.11 and 2.12 of the Company's constitution.

The Company will pay all costs of the sale for holders of an Unmarketable Parcel who use this Sale Facility, excluding tax consequences from the sale which remain the shareholder's responsibility. The sale proceeds will be determined once all the shares under the Sale Facility are sold. You will receive your proportionate share of the sale proceeds, based on your initial shareholding, from all shares sold under the Sale Facility without any deduction for brokerage or handing costs.

The price that you receive for your shares under the Sale Facility will be determined by when and how the shares are sold. The Company may sell your shares on market or in any other way it considers fair and reasonable in the circumstances. If the shares are sold on market the price will depend on a number of factors, including market conditions at the time of sale.

What do you need to do if you wish to sell your Unmarketable Parcel?

You do not need to take any action. Your shares will be sold through the Sale Facility after the Closing Date and the proceeds of the sale will be paid to you.

If you have previously provided the Company with details of an account with an Australian financial institution, your sale proceeds will be paid in Australian dollars by direct credit into that account. The Company encourages you to notify it of your account details by completing Step B of Option B of the enclosed Share Sale Election Form and return it before the Closing Date, being 5.00pm (WST) on Tuesday 18 May 2021. In all other circumstances, sale proceeds will be paid in Australian dollars by cheque.

By refraining from taking any action, you will be deemed to have irrevocably appointed the Company as your agent:

  • to sell all your shares at a price to be determined by when and how the shares are sold and without any cost being incurred by you; and

  • to deal with the proceeds of the sale as detailed in the attached Information Sheet.

==> picture [108 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

What do you need to do if you wish to retain your Unmarketable Parcel?

If you wish to retain your shares, you must:

  • complete and return the attached Share Sale Election Form before the Closing Date, being 5.00pm (WST) on Tuesday 18 May 2021. Alternatively, you may visit https://Investor.automic.com.au/#/home before the Closing Date to submit your intention to retain your existing holding; or

  • increase your shareholding so that you hold more than A$500 in value of the Company’s shares at the Closing Date.
