Voting in person

To vote in person, attend the Meeting on the date and at the place specified in the Notice. Shareholders are asked to arrive at the venue 30 minutes prior to the time designated for the Meeting so that the Company may check their shareholdings against the Company’s share register and note attendances.

Information about proxy voting

Please read the following information carefully if you intend to appoint a proxy to attend the Meeting and vote on your behalf.

N A V A R R E M I N E R A L S L I M I T E D

Appointment of proxies

A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting may appoint one or, if the Shareholder is entitled to cast two or more votes at the Meeting, two proxies to attend and vote on their behalf. Each proxy will have the right to vote on a poll and also to speak at the Meeting. A proxy need not be a member of the Company and can be either an individual or a body corporate.

Voting by proxies

The appointment of a proxy may specify the proportion or the number of votes that the proxy may exercise. Where two proxies are appointed and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the Shareholder’s votes each proxy may exercise, the votes will be divided equally among the proxies (i.e. each proxy may exercise half the votes). If a proxy is not directed how to vote on a resolution, the proxy may vote or abstain from voting on that resolution as they see fit.

Non-attendance by nominated proxy

If a proxy form is returned and no person or body corporate is named as the proxy or the nominated proxy does not attend the meeting, or does not vote on the resolution, the chair of the Meeting will act as proxy and vote in accordance with any instructions.

How the chair of the meeting will vote undirected proxies

The chair of the Meeting will vote undirected proxies in favour of each Resolution on which the chair is entitled to vote as proxy. Proxy appointments in favour of any other Director or the Company Secretary that do not contain a direction on how to vote will be used where possible to support the resolutions proposed in the Notice.

Important information concerning proxy votes for Resolution 1

The Corporations Act places certain restrictions on the ability of Key Management Personnel and their Closely Related Parties to vote on the advisory resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report and resolutions connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of the Key Management Personnel.

For these reasons, Shareholders who intend to vote by proxy should carefully consider the identity of their proxy and are encouraged to direct their proxy as to how to vote on all Resolutions. If you do not do so, you risk your vote not being cast.

If you appoint the chair of the Meeting as your proxy but do not direct the chair how to vote in respect of Resolution 1, you are providing express authorisation for the chair of the Meeting to vote your proxy in relation to Resolution 1, notwithstanding that Resolution 1 is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the Key Management Personnel, which includes the Chairman .

As noted above, the chair of the Meeting intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1. Accordingly, if you appoint the chair of the Meeting as your proxy (including an appointment by default) and you wish to vote differently to how the chair of the Meeting intends to vote on Resolution 1, you must mark ‘against’ or ‘abstain’ on the proxy form for Resolution 1.

Voting Exclusions and Prohibitions

Resolution 1 – In accordance with the Corporations Act, a vote on Resolution 1 must not be cast (in any capacity) by or on behalf of:

• a member of Key Management Personnel whose details are included in the Remuneration Report; or

• a Closely Related Party of such a member.

However, a person described above may vote on Resolution 1 as a proxy if the vote is not cast on behalf of a person described above and either:

• the person does so as a proxy appointed by writing that specifies the way the proxy is to vote on Resolution 1; or

4

N A V A R R E M I N E R A L S L I M I T E D

• the person is the chair of the Meeting and the appointment:

• does not specify the way the proxy is to vote on Resolution 1; and

• expressly authorises the chair to exercise the proxy even if the resolution is connected directly or indirectly with remuneration of a member of the Key Management Personnel.

Resolution 3 – In accordance with Listing Rule 14.11.1, the Company is required to disregard any votes cast on Resolution 3 by any person who participated in the placement described in the Explanatory Statement in relation to Resolution 3 and any person who is an associate of such a person. However, the Company need not disregard a vote if it is cast by a person as proxy for a person who is entitled to vote, in accordance with the directions on the proxy form, or if it is cast by the person chairing the Meeting as proxy for a person who is entitled to vote, in accordance with a direction on the proxy form to vote as the proxy decides.

Resolution 4 – In accordance with Listing Rule 14.11.1, the Company is required to disregard any votes cast on Resolution 4 by a person or an associate of a person who may participate in the proposed issue of ordinary shares or who might obtain a benefit, except a benefit solely in the capacity of a holder of ordinary shares, if the resolution is passed. However, the Company need not disregard a vote if it is cast by a person as proxy for a person who is entitled to vote, in accordance with the directions on the proxy form, or if it is cast by the person chairing the Meeting as proxy for a person who is entitled to vote, in accordance with a direction on the proxy form to vote as the proxy decides. At this stage, the proposed allottees of the ordinary shares are not known and identified. In accordance with the note to Listing Rule 14.11.1, a person’s vote will only be excluded from voting on Resolution 4 if there is more than a mere possibility that the person will participate in the proposed issue.

Explanatory Statement

The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to explain the resolutions in the accompanying Notice and to provide Shareholders with all information known to the Company that is material to a decision on how to vote on those resolutions.

The Directors recommend Shareholders read the Notice and this Explanatory Statement in full before making any decision in relation to the Resolutions.

Capitalised terms in this Explanatory Statement are defined in the glossary at the end of this document.

Item 1: Consider Accounts and Reports

The Corporations Act requires the Director’s Report, Financial Report and Auditor’s Report of the Company to be laid before the Meeting. Accordingly, the reports for the financial year ended 30 June 2017 will be presented for consideration by Shareholders. No resolution is required on these reports.

The chair of the Meeting will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders to ask questions or make comments about those reports and the management of the Company. Shareholders will also be given a reasonable opportunity to ask the auditor questions about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the Auditor’s Report.

Item 2: Remuneration Report (Resolution 1 – non-binding)

The Remuneration Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2017 is set out in the Annual Report. The Remuneration Report sets out the Company’s remuneration policies and remuneration details for each Director and other member of the Key Management Personnel.

Shareholders attending the Meeting will be given a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report.

Under the Corporations Act, a listed entity is required to put to the vote a resolution that the Remuneration Report be adopted. The vote on this resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. However, if at least 25% of the votes cast on Resolution 1 are cast against the adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive annual general meetings, then a ‘board spill resolution’ must be put to the Shareholders proposing the calling of a Shareholder meeting to consider the appointment of Directors.

If a board spill resolution is passed by the Shareholders, the Company is required to hold a further meeting of Shareholders within 90 days to consider replacing those Directors (other than the Managing Director of the Company) in office at the time the Remuneration Report was approved by the Board.

Less than 25% of votes cast at the last Annual General Meeting of the Company were cast against the resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2016.

Item 3: Re-election of Mr John Dorward as a Director (Resolution 2)

Mr John Dorward retires at this Meeting by rotation in accordance with the Constitution and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election as a Director. Details of Mr Dorward’s qualifications and experience are set out in the Annual Report.

Directors’ Recommendation

The Directors (other than Mr Dorward) recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2. Mr Dorward makes no recommendation.

N A V A R R E M I N E R A L S L I M I T E D

Item 4: Ratification of Prior Issue of Shares under Listing Rule 7.1A to VBS Exchange Pty Limited (Resolution 3)

On 30 June 2017, the Company issued 13,333,333 Shares to a new strategic investor, VBS Exchange Pty Limited ( VBS ), by way of a private placement at an issue price of $0.03 per Share to raise $400,000 before costs. That was also the issue price of new Shares offered by the Company to existing Shareholders under the Company’s non-renounceable, pro-rata 1 for 5 entitlement offer to all shareholders announced on 1 June 2017.

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder ratification, pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4, of the issue of 13,333,333 Shares ( VBS Placement Shares ) to VBS under Listing Rule 7.1A.

Listing Rule 7.1A

Listing Rule 7.1A permits eligible entities that have obtained shareholder approval by special resolution at the Meeting to issue equity securities up to an additional 10% of its issued capacity by placements over a 12 month period after the Meeting ( 10% Placement Capacity ). Approval for the 10% Placement Capacity may only be obtained at the Meeting. The VBS Placement Shares were issued pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity that was approved by Shareholders at the Company’s last Annual General Meeting held on 25 November 2016.

Listing Rule 7.4

Listing Rule 7.4 permits the ratification of previous issues of securities made without prior shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A, provided the issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1A. The effect of such ratification is to restore a company’s maximum discretionary power to issue further securities up to the limit imposed by Listing Rule 7.1A without seeking shareholder approval. The Company confirms the issue of the VBS Placement Shares that are the subject of Resolution 3 did not breach Listing Rule 7.1A.

Purpose of Resolution 3

By ratifying the issue of the VBS Placement Shares under Resolution 3, the Company will restore the ability to issue further equity securities under its additional 10% Placement Capacity, if the Board considers that it is in the Company’s interests to do so.

If Resolution 3 is not passed, the VBS Placement Shares will be counted towards the 10% Placement Capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A for a period of 12 months from the date of issue.

Additional information required by Listing Rule 7.5

The following information is provided in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5 with respect to Resolution 3:

Date of issue	30 June 2017
Securities issued	13,333,333 Shares
Issue price	$0.03 per Share
Terms of issue of securities	Fully paid ordinary shares in the Company, ranking equally with, and having identical rights to, the Shares already on issue.
Allottees	VBS Exchange Pty Limited, an unrelated party of the Company
Intended use of funds from Placement	Funds raised (after payment of issue costs and expenses) have been and will be applied to future exploration and evaluation activities on the Company’s Irvine Gold Project and ongoing corporate expenses.

A voting exclusion statement applies to Resolution 3, as set out in the Notice.

Directors’ Recommendation

The Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.

N A V A R R E M I N E R A L S L I M I T E D

Item 5: Approval of Additional Capacity to issue Ordinary Shares (Resolution 4)

Listing Rule 7.1A entitles eligible entities to issue equity securities of up to 10% of the Company’s existing issued capital, subject to shareholder approval. In this regard, approval is sought from the Shareholders for the issue of Shares by the Company pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A, such that the Company will have the benefit of the additional capacity to issue ordinary shares as contemplated by Listing Rule 7.1A.

Resolution 4 is a special resolution and therefore must be approved by at least 75% of the total number of votes cast by Shareholders entitled to vote on the resolution (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a body corporate, by a corporate representative).

An eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that, at the time of its annual general meeting, is not included in the S&P/ASX300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. The Company is an eligible entity.

If Resolution 4 is passed, the maximum number of Shares that the Company will be entitled to issue is the number calculated in accordance with the following formula (as set out in Listing Rule 7.1A.2):

• (A x D) - E

where:

• A = the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement,

• plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2,

• plus the number of partly paid ordinary securities that became fully paid in the 12 months,

• plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the 12 months with the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 or Listing Rule 7.4,

• less the number of fully paid ordinary securities cancelled in the 12 months.

• D = 10%

• E = the number of equity securities issued or agreed to be issued under 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 Listing Rule 7.1 or Listing Rule 7.4.

For example, on 2 October 2017, the Company had 222,046,495 Shares on issue. Assuming 1 million Shares are issued between 2 October 2017 and 2 October 2018 (eg. pursuant to options being exercised) then the Company will, as at 2 October 2018, be able to issue 22,204,649 Shares. This assumes a value of nil for variable “E” above.

The ability to issue ordinary shares under Listing Rule 7.1A is in addition to the Company’s ability to issue ordinary shares of up to 15% of its existing issued capital over a 12 month period without Shareholder approval permitted by Listing Rule 7.1.

Additional information required by Listing Rule 7.3A

The following information is provided in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A with respect to Resolution 4:

• Minimum Price: The issue price of each Share will be no less than 75% of the VWAP over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

• the date on which the price at which the Shares are to be issued is agreed; or

• if the Shares are not issued within 5 trading days of the date on which the price is agreed, the date on which the Shares are issued.

8

N A V A R R E M I N E R A L S L I M I T E D

• Dilution: If Resolution 4 is passed, and the Company issues Shares pursuant to the approval under Listing Rule 7.1A, the existing Shareholders’ voting power in the Company will be diluted with examples of such dilution being set out in the table below. There is a risk that:

• the market price for the Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the approval under Listing Rule 7.1A; and

• the Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Shares on the issue date,

which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the Shares.

As required by Listing Rule 7.3A.2, the table below shows the potential dilution of existing Shareholders on the basis of three different assumed issue prices and values for the variable “A” calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out above). The following assumptions are made in the table:

• the issue price is the closing price of the Shares on 2 October 2017;

• the number of Shares on issue is at 2 October 2017. This could increase as a result of the issue of Shares either with or without shareholder approval; and

• the Company issues the maximum number of Shares as are permitted under Resolution 4.

Variable “A” in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (Number of Shares on issue)	50% decrease in issue price $0.024	50% decrease in issue price $0.024	Issue price $0.048	Issue price $0.048	100% increase in issue price $0.096	100% increase in issue price $0.096
	10% Voting Dilution	Capital Raised	10% Voting Dilution	Capital Raised	10% Voting Dilution	Capital Raised
222,046,495 (Current)	22,204,649	$532,911	22,204,649	$1,065,823	22,204,649	$2,131,646
333,069,742 (50% increase in Current Variable A)	33,306,974	$799,367	33,306,974	$1,598,735	33,306,974	$3,197,470
444,092,990 (100% increase in Current Variable A)	44,409,299	$1,065,823	44,409,299	$2,131,646	44,409,299	$4,263,293

• Issue Date: Shareholder approval obtained under Listing Rule 7.1A is valid for a period commencing on the date of the Meeting and expiring on the first to occur of the following:

• the date that is 12 months after the date of the Meeting, being 17 November 2017; and

• the date of approval by the Shareholders of a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (significant change to the nature or scale of the Company’s activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal by the Company of its main undertaking).

• Purpose: The purpose for which Shares may be issued pursuant to the approval under Listing Rule 7.1A may be to raise funds for the Company and as non-cash consideration. Funds raised from the issue, if undertaken, would be used for exploration expenses, general working capital requirements and, potentially, the acquisition of new resources (including tenements and expenses associated with such acquisitions).

If the Company issues any Shares for non-cash consideration, the Company will release to the market a valuation of the non-cash consideration that demonstrates that the issue price of the Shares complies with Listing Rule 7.1A.3.

9

N A V A R R E M I N E R A L S L I M I T E D

• Allocation Policy: The allottees may comprise existing Shareholders or new investors or a combination of both. The allottees will be determined by the Board, taking into account:

• alternative options for raising funds if applicable. For example, the Board will consider whether it is appropriate to raise required funds by way of an entitlement issue;

• the purpose of the issue;

• the impact of the issue on the control of the Company;

• market conditions and the financial position of the Company; and

• if applicable, advice from external advisors.

The Company does not yet know the names of the allottees or, other than described above, the basis on which they will be identified or selected. The Company notes that:

• the Board has formed no specific intentions to offer any placement to any existing Shareholders, class of Shareholder or new investors;

• the Board will, prior to make any placement, consider whether the raising of funds could be achieved by means of an entitlement issue to existing Shareholders; and

• if any placement is announced, the Company would, in accordance with Listing Rule 3.10.5A, disclose its reasons for undertaking that particular issue as a placement, rather than an entitlements issue to existing Shareholders.

• Previous approval under Listing Rule 7.1A: The Company previously obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at its previous Annual General Meeting held on 25 November 2016.

• Issue of equity securities in the 12 months preceding the Meeting: For the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3A.6(a), the table below shows the total number of equity securities issued in the 12 months preceding the date of this Meeting (being the 12 months to 17 November 2017) and the percentage those issues represent of the total number of equity securities on issue at the commencement of the 12 month period.

Equity securities issued in the prior 12 month period	54,854,340 Shares 11,238,215 Options
Percentage previous issues represent of total diluted number of 174,000,127 equity securities on issue at commencement of 12 month period (147,515,725 Shares and 26,484,402 Options)	38%

• For the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3A.6(b), set out below are details of each issue of equity securities that has taken place in the 12 month period preceding the date of this Meeting (being the 12 months to 17 November 2017):

Directors’ Recommendation

The Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4.

Item 6: Renewal of Proportional Takeover Provisions (Resolution 5)

Rule 37 of the Constitution currently contains provisions dealing with proportional takeover bids for Shares in the Company in accordance with the Corporations Act. Under the Corporations Act and Rule 37, the provisions must be renewed every three years or they will cease to have effect. The current provisions will automatically cease to have effect after 21 November 2017 and, accordingly, it is proposed to renew them in the Constitution. If renewed, Rule 37 will operate on the same basis as the existing Rule 37 for a period of three years from the date of this Meeting.

The Corporations Act requires that the following information be provided to shareholders when they are considering the renewal of proportional takeover provisions in a constitution.

What is a proportional takeover bid, and why do we need the proportional takeover approval provisions?

A proportional takeover bid involves the bidder offering to buy a proportion only of each shareholder’s shares in a company. This means that control of the company may pass without shareholders having the chance to sell all their shares to the bidder. It also means the bidder may take control of the company without paying an adequate amount for gaining control.

In order to deal with this possibility, a company may provide in its constitution, as the Company has provided in Rule 37 of its Constitution, that:

• in the event of a proportional takeover bid being made for shares in the company, shareholders are required to vote by ordinary resolution and collectively decide whether to accept or reject the offer; and

• the majority decision of the company’s shareholders will be binding on all individual members.

The Directors consider that Shareholders should be able to vote on whether a proportional takeover bid ought to proceed given such a bid might otherwise allow control of the Company to change without Shareholders being given the opportunity to dispose of all of their Shares for a satisfactory control premium. The Directors also believe that the right to vote on a proportional takeover bid may avoid Shareholders feeling pressure to accept the bid even if they do not want it to succeed.

What is the effect of the proportional takeover approval provisions?

If a proportional takeover bid is made, the Directors must ensure that Shareholders vote on a resolution to approve the bid more than 14 days before the bid period closes.

The vote is decided on a simple majority. Each person who, as at the end of the day on which the first offer under the bid was made, held bid class securities is entitled to vote. However, the bidder and their associates are not allowed to vote.

If the resolution is not passed, transfer which would have resulted from the acceptance of a bid will not be registered and the bid will be taken to have been withdrawn. If the bid is approved (or taken to have been approved), the transfers must be registered if they comply with the Corporations Act and the Constitution.

The bid will be taken to have been approved if the resolution is not voted on within the deadline specified under the Corporations Act. However, the Directors will breach the Corporations Act if they fail to ensure the approving resolution is voted on.

N A V A R R E M I N E R A L S L I M I T E D

The proportional takeover approval provisions do not apply to full takeover bids, and only apply for three years after the date they are renewed. The provisions may be renewed or reinserted upon the expiry of the initial three-year period, but only by a special resolution passed by members.

Potential advantages and disadvantages

While the renewal of Rule 37 will allow the Directors to ascertain Shareholders’ views on a proportional takeover bid, it does not otherwise offer any advantage or disadvantage to the Directors who remain free to make their own recommendation as to whether the bid should be accepted.

The provisions in Rule 37 ensure that all Shareholders will have an opportunity to study a proportional bid proposal and vote on the bid at a general meeting. This is likely to ensure a potential bidder structures its offer in a way which is attractive to a majority of Shareholders, including appropriate pricing. Similarly, knowing the view of the majority of Shareholders may help individual Shareholders assess the likely outcome of the proportional takeover when determining whether to accept or reject the offer.

However, it is also possible that the inclusion of such provisions in the Constitution may discourage proportional takeover bids, and may reduce any speculative element in the market price of Shares arising from the possibility of a takeover offer being made. The inclusion of the provisions may also be considered to constitute an unwarranted additional restriction of the ability of Shareholders to freely deal with their Shares.

The Board considers that the potential advantages for Shareholders of the proportional takeover approval provisions outweigh the potential disadvantages.

As at the date on which this statement was prepared, no Director is aware of any proposal by any person to acquire, or to increase the extent of, a substantial interest in the Company.

Directors’ Recommendation

The Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5.
