Dear Sipa Shareholder

Sipa Resources Limited – Share Purchase Plan

1. Introduction

On behalf of the Directors of Sipa Resources Limited ABN 26 009 448 980 ( Sipa ), I am pleased to offer Eligible Shareholders (as defined in Section 3 of the enclosed Terms and Conditions) the opportunity to participate in the Sipa Share Purchase Plan ( SPP ).

Pursuant to the SPP, Eligible Shareholders may apply to purchase up to A$15,000 worth of new fully paid ordinary shares in Sipa ( New Shares ) (subject to any pro-rata scale back) at an issue price of 1.2 cents per New Share ( Issue Price ) without paying brokerage or other transaction costs. The Issue Price was calculated at a discount of 17.3% to the volume weighted average price of fully paid ordinary shares ( Shares ), calculated over the last 5 days on which sales of Shares were recorded before the day on which the Plan was announced. The SPP proceeds will be capped at A$2million, however the Directors reserve the right to accept oversubscriptions in consultation with the Underwriter, up to an additional $500,000, or to scale back applications pro-rata. A brief snapshot of the SPP is set out below.

The Plan is underwritten by JM Financial Group Limited (ACN 007 364 132)(AFSL 238397) ( Underwriter ) to the extent of 166,666,667 New Shares, or $2 million ( Underwritten Amount ), pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement dated 22 September 2017 ( Underwriting Agreement ). Full details in relation to the SPP are set out in the enclosed Terms and Conditions and Application Form.

2. Purpose of SPP and Use of Funds

Sipa announced the SPP on 18 September 2017.

The funds raised from the SPP will be used as follows:

  • In the Paterson Province – Western Australia – To follow up on the diamond drilling program currently underway at Paterson North (the Project), with RC or further diamond drilling. Drilling conducted earlier in 2017 has identified a focussed copper rich alteration zone >1000ppm Cu with RC intercepts such as 102m of >900ppm Cu (+Au, Ag, Mo, W) open at the end of hole within a more extensive anomaly of over 4km in length. The zone has a strong correlation with IP chargeability and resistivity data, a strong magnetic high and Audio Magneto Telluric Data. Refer to ASX Releases dated 22 September 2017, 18 September 2017, 6 September 2017 and 19 June 2017 (and the Company is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the ASX Releases dated 22 September 2017, 18 September 2017, 6 September 2017 and 19 June 2017).

The Project, a Farm-in and Joint Venture with Ming Gold Ltd, which enables Sipa to earn up to 80% by expending $3m over four years, is adjacent to tenements containing Antipa Mineral’s Calibre and Magnum deposits further to the south where Rio is earning in by joint venture. Rio is exploring tenements adjacent to Sipa in addition in their own right. Sipa has currently earned 51%.

  • At Akelikongo in Northern Uganda – To continue to delineate the higher grade massive sulphide zones in the basal and channel flow positions within the Akelikongo magmatic nickel sulphide system. Recent results (Refer ASX Release dated 1 December 2016 - the Company is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the ASX Release dated 1 December 2016) such as 84.5m @ 0.37% Ni and 0.16% Cu have continued to improve in both grade and width and include further massive intercepts such as 7m @ 1.04% Ni, 0.35% Cu and 0.05% Co. Plans are underway to complete a high powered FLEM survey; and

  • To provide additional working capital.

3. Summary of Key Details

Key details in relation to the SPP are summarised below:

Offer to Eligible Shareholders only : The offer under the SPP to subscribe for New Shares is only open to Eligible Shareholders:

  • who were registered as holders of fully paid ordinary shares in Sipa ( Shares ) as at 5.00pm Perth on 15 September 2017 ( Record Date ); and

  • whose registered address, as recorded in Sipa’s register of members, is in Australia or New Zealand ( Eligible Shareholders ).

Optional, but not transferable : Participation in the SPP is optional, but the right of Eligible Shareholders to participate in the SPP is not transferable.

Issue price : Eligible Shareholders may subscribe for New Shares at an issue price of A$0.012 per New Share, which represents a discount of:

  • 14.3% to the closing price of A$0.014 per Share on 15 September 2017 (being the last trading day prior to the announcement of the SPP); and

  • 17.3% to the five day volume-weighted average price up to an including 15 September 2017 of A$0.0145 per Share.

Maximum amount and increments: If you are an Eligible Shareholder, you may apply to purchase a parcel of New Shares in the following amounts:

Subscription amount Number of New Shares
A$1,000 (minimum) 83,334
A$3,000 250,000
A$5,000 416,667
A$10,000 833,334
A$15,000 (maximum) 1,250,000

If you have two or more registered holdings of Shares, the total of all your applications must not exceed A$15,000. Sipa reserves the right to decline applications from multiple registered holdings if the total exceeds A$15,000, including where those registered holdings are in similar, but not identical names, are held directly or indirectly, or are held alone or with others.

Cap, Scale back and oversubscriptions : Sipa intends to raise A$2 million under the SPP. However, the Directors reserve the right to accept over-subscriptions in consultation with the Underwriter of up to an additional $500,000 or to scale back applications pro-rata. The maximum number of New Shares which may be issued under the SPP as permitted by the ASX Listing Rules is 30% of the pre SPP offer issued capital, being 278,986,288 New Shares. In the event that Sipa elects to scale back applications, this will be done on a pro-rata basis. Should this occur, you may be allocated New Shares to a value which is less than the parcel for which you applied, and the difference will be refunded to you without interest.

Subject to any pro-rata scale back of applications and the terms on the Underwriting Agreement, the allocation of New Shares will be at the absolute discretion of the Directors from time to time - the Company reserves the right to issue fewer New Shares than an Eligible Shareholder applies for under the SPP, or no New Shares, in its absolute discretion or if the Company believes it is not permitted to issue the New Shares as a result of any law or ASX Listing Rule.

Underwriting: The SPP is underwritten by the Underwriter to the Underwritten Amount under the Underwriting Agreement. The underwriting as contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement, is subject to the Company, on or before 5.00pm on the closing date, being able to issue the shortfall without such issue being in breach of Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.1A (or any other Listing Rule). In the event that Eligible Shareholders do not subscribe for New Shares under the Plan to the Underwritten Amount, then the resultant shortfall up to the Underwritten Amount will be placed by the Underwriter under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement. The Underwriting Agreement contains customary warranties, undertakings and termination events.

The Underwriter may appoint sub-underwriters to take up New Shares pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, provided they are not related parties of the Company, and subject to all applicable laws. The SPP will raise a minimum of $2 million, as any New Shares validly subscribed for by shareholders under the SPP will reduce the Underwriter’s obligations.

Sipa will pay the Underwriter an underwriting fee of 5% of the Underwritten Amount (plus GST),

��

Shares taken up pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement will take up Sipa’s capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7. Further, the Underwriter is an existing Sipa shareholder, with voting power of 1.13%. If the Underwriter takes up the maximum possible number of New Shares under the Underwriting Agreement, being 166,666,667, the Underwriter’s voting power will increase to 16.16%.

Application procedure : The SPP opens at 10:00am on 26 September 2017 and closes at 5.00pm (AEST) on 19 October 2017. To apply for New Shares under the SPP, Eligible Shareholders may either:

  • Complete and return their enclosed Application Form in accordance with the details on the form, together with a cheque, bank draft or money order drawn on an Australian bank in Australian dollars so that they are received by no later than 5.00pm (AEST) on 19 October 2017; or

  • Pay directly via BPAY® on the internet or by telephone (for shareholders with an eligible Australian bank account only) so that the funds are received by no later than 5.00pm (AEST) on 19 October 2017 . Applicants should be aware that their own financial institution may implement earlier cut off times with regards to electronic payment, and should therefore take this into consideration when making payment.

Full details of the SPP are set out in the enclosed Terms and Conditions and Application Form.

4. Additional Information

You should be aware that the market price of Shares on ASX may rise and fall between the date of the SPP offer and the date that the New Shares are issued under the SPP. This means that the price you pay per New Share under the SPP may be either higher or lower than the price of shares in Sipa at the date of this offer.

The New Shares are a speculative investment and there can be no certainty that New Shares will trade at or above the Issue Price following completion of the SPP.

The SPP does not take into account the individual investment objectives, financial situation, tax position or particular needs of each Eligible Shareholder. You should consider seeking independent financial and taxation advice before making a decision as to whether or not to accept the offer.

The SPP may be changed, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time.

Sipa acknowledges the Prime Minister of Australia’s announcement on 2 September 2017 regarding the introduction of a Junior Mineral Exploration Tax Credit ( JMETC ) scheme which would enable eligible exploration companies to distribute tax losses relating to their greenfields exploration expenditure as a tax credit to eligible Australian resident shareholders. The announcement states that newly issued shares relating to capital raising for investment in new greenfields exploration activity will be eligible for these tax credits. Tax credits of up to $100 million over four years will be made available from this financial year on a first-in first served basis. While the details regarding the operation of and eligibility under the JMETC scheme remain uncertain, it is Sipa’s current intention to make an application to the Australian Taxation Office in relation to the New Shares issued under the SPP, to the extent that Sipa is eligible and tax credits are available under the JMETC scheme. As the specific details of the JMETC scheme are still being finalised, there is no guarantee that Sipa;

  • is eligible to participate in the scheme in respect of the New Shares;

  • will make an application in time (under the first-in first serve basis) or at all; or

  • will be able to distribute any tax credits to Eligible Shareholders under the JMETC scheme.

I encourage you to read and consider the enclosed Terms and Conditions relating to the SPP, as you will be bound by them if you apply for New Shares under the SPP. If you have any queries, please contact Tara Robson on +61 8 9388 1551.

Yours sincerely

Lynda Burnett Managing Director

The New Shares are not being offered or sold to the public within New Zealand other than to existing shareholders of the Company with registered addresses in New Zealand and to whom the Offer is being made in reliance on the Securities Act (Overseas Companies) Exemption Notice 2013 (New Zealand).

This document has not been registered, filed with or approved by any New Zealand regulatory authority under the Securities Act 1978 (New Zealand).

The Offer is entirely voluntary and is subject to these Terms and Conditions. You do not have to participate if you don't want to.

6. How was the issue price determined?

The issue price for each New Share under the Offer is A$0.012. This price is an 17.3% discount to the volume weighted average market price of Shares in the Company calculated over the last five days on which sales in the Shares were recorded on the ASX, ending on the Record Date.

Please note that the Share price may rise or fall between the date of this Offer and the date when the New Shares are issued to you under the SPP. This means that the price you pay per New Share under this Offer may be greater than or less than the Share price at the time the New Shares are issued to you pursuant to this Offer.

The New Shares are a speculative investment and there can be no certainty that New Shares will trade at or above the Issue Price following completion of the Offer.

In determining whether you wish to participate in this Offer and the extent to which you participate, you should seek your own personal financial and/or taxation advice referable to your own circumstances.

8. How much can you invest in the Offer?

Sipa intends to raise A$2 million under the SPP. However, the Directors reserve the right to accept over-subscriptions in consultation with the Underwriter up to $500,000 or to scale back applications pro-rata. The maximum number of New Shares which may be issued under the SPP as permitted by the ASX Listing Rules is 30% of the pre Offer issued capital, being 278,986,289 New Shares. In the event that Sipa elects to scale back applications, this will be done on a pro-rata basis. Should this occur, you may be allocated New Shares to a value which is less than the parcel for which you applied, and the difference will be refunded to you without interest.

Subject to paragraph 9, if you are an Eligible Shareholder, you can subscribe for New Shares under the SPP in the following amounts:

Subscription amount Number of New Shares
A$1,000 (minimum) 83,334
A$3,000 250,000
A$5,000 416,667
A$10,000 833,334
A$15,000 (maximum) 1,250,000

The A$15,000 limit applies irrespective of the number of Sipa Shares you hold on the Record Date.

Please note that the maximum of A$15,000 applies to you even if you receive more than one Offer from the Company. For example, if you are both a sole and a joint shareholder of the Company as at the Record Date, you can only apply for, in aggregate, a maximum of A$15,000 worth of New Shares.

��

916CR_0_Sample_CA/000001/000004

==> picture [138 x 31] intentionally omitted <==

If you are registered with one or more persons as the joint shareholders of a holding of Shares, that joint holding is considered to be a single registered holding for the purposes of the SPP and the joint holders are entitled to participate in the SPP in respect of that single holding only. If the same joint holders receive more than one offer under the SPP due to multiple identical holdings, the joint holders may only apply in aggregate for a maximum of A$15,000 worth of New Shares.

No fractions of Shares will be issued. The number of New Shares to be issued to you will be calculated by dividing the aggregate application money that you pay in applying for New Shares by the issue price of A$0.012, then rounding up to the nearest whole number.

9.
