However, the chair of a meeting may vote an undirected proxy (i.e. a proxy that does not specify how it is to be voted), provided the shareholder who has lodged the proxy has given an express voting direction to the chair to exercise the undirected proxy, even if the resolution is connected with the remuneration of a member of Key Management Personnel.

Formula

The exact number of additional Equity Securities that the Company may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined by a formula set out Listing Rule 7.1A.2 as follows:

(A x D) - E

Where:

A is 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 previous 12 months under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2;

  • plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the previous 12 months (there are presently no partly paid shares on issue in the Company);

  • plus the number of shares issued in the previous 12 months with approval of shareholders under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid shares under the Company’s 15% placement capacity without shareholder approval; and

  • less the number of shares cancelled in the previous 12 months.

‘A’ has the same meaning in Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating an entity’s 15% placement capacity

D is 10%.

E is 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 Rule 7.1 or 7.4.

Conditions of There are a number of conditions applicable to the issue of Equity Securities under issue under the Listing Rule 7.1A, including a limitation on the discount to prevailing market price at 10% Placement which they may be issued, and additional disclosure requirements. A summary of Capacity these conditions are as follows:

  • (a) Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Capacity can only be in a class of securities already quoted. At the date of this Notice, the Company only has one class of securities which are quoted, being ordinary shares.

  • (b) The issue price of each Equity Security issued under the 10% Placement Capacity must be no less than 75% of the volume weighted average market price ( VWAP ) for Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before either:

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

  • ii. if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 trading days of the date in paragraph (i), the date on which the securities are issued.

Period of validity of shareholder approval

In the event that the Company obtains shareholder approval of Resolution 4, such approval will cease to be valid upon the earlier of:

  • (a) 12 months after the date of this Annual General Meeting, being 29 November 2015; or

  • (b) if applicable, the date on which the Company’s shareholders approve a change to the nature or scale of the Company’s activities under Listing Rule 11.1.2, or the disposal of the Company’s main undertaking under Listing Rule 11.2.

  • ( Placement Period )

INFORMATION TO BE PROVIDED TO SHAREHOLDERS UNDER ASX LISTING RULE 7.3A

Minimum issue The issue price of each Equity Security issued under the 10% Placement Capacity price must be no less than 75% of the VWAP for Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before either:

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

  • ii. if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 trading days of the date in paragraph (i), the date on which the securities are issued.

  • the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for the Company’s Equity Securities on the issue date.

The table below shows the potential dilution of existing shareholders under various scenarios on the basis of:

  • an issue price of $0.008 per share, which was the closing price of the Company’s shares on the ASX on 22 October 2014; and

the variable ‘A’ being calculated as the number of fully paid ordinary shares on issue on the date of this Notice, being 670,487,770.

The table also shows:

  • (a) two examples where variable ‘A’ has increased by 50% and 100%. The number of shares on issue in the Company may increase as a result of the issue of shares that do not require approval of shareholders (for example, prorata entitlement issues or scrip issues under takeover offers) or future placements of shares under Listing Rule 7.1 of up to 15% of issued capital that are approved at future general meetings of shareholders; and

  • (b) two examples of where the issue price of shares has decreased by 50% and increased by 100%.

Allocation policy
----- End of picture text -----

  • (b) cash consideration, the proceeds of which will be applied to fund the Company’s existing and future exploration activities (including in particular ongoing drilling programs at its Forsayth Project, and further exploration activity at its Sofala Project, and meeting minimum commitment expenditure requirements at its tenements generally), appraisal of corporate and exploration opportunities, investment in new ventures (if any), the costs incurred in undertaking placement(s) of shares under Listing Rule 7.1.A and for general working capital purposes, including the funding of the Company’s corporate overheads.

The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under ASX Listing Rules 7.1A 4 and 3.10.5A upon issue of any Equity Securities.

Allocation policy The Company may not issue any or all the Equity Securities for which approval is given and may issue the Equity Securities progressively as the Company places the Equity Securities with investors.

The Company’s allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity. The identity of the allottees of Equity Securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to factors such as:

  1. fund raising options (and their viability) available to the Company at the relevant time;

  2. the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;

  3. the financial situation of the Company and the urgency of the requirement for funds; and

  4. advice from the Company’s corporate, financial, legal and broking advisers.

The allottees under the 10% Placement Capacity have not been determined as at the date of this Notice. It is intended that the allottees will be suitable professional and sophisticated investors, and other investors not requiring a disclosure document under section 708 of the Corporations Act, that are known to the Company and/or introduced by third parties.

The allottees may include existing substantial shareholders and/or new shareholders, but the allottees will not be related parties of the Company.

In the event that the shares under the 10% Placement Capacity are issued as consideration for the acquisition of resources, assets or investments, it is likely that the allottees will be the vendors of such resources, assets or investments.

How to Vote on Items of Business

All your securities will be voted in accordance with your directions.

Appointment of Proxy

Voting 100% of your holding: Direct your proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite each item of business. If you do not mark a box your proxy may vote or abstain as they choose (to the extent permitted by law). If you mark more than one box on an item your vote will be invalid on that item.

Voting a portion of your holding: Indicate a portion of your voting rights by inserting the percentage or number of securities you wish to vote in the For, Against or Abstain box or boxes. The sum of the votes cast must not exceed your voting entitlement or 100%.

Appointing a second proxy: You are entitled to appoint up to two proxies to attend the meeting and vote on a poll. If you appoint two proxies you must specify the percentage of votes or number of securities for each proxy, otherwise each proxy may exercise half of the votes. When appointing a second proxy write both names and the percentage of votes or number of securities for each in Step 1 overleaf.

A proxy need not be a securityholder of the Company.

Signing Instructions

Individual: Where the holding is in one name, the securityholder must sign.

Joint Holding: Where the holding is in more than one name, all of the securityholders should sign.

Power of Attorney: If you have not already lodged the Power of Attorney with the registry, please attach a certified photocopy of the Power of Attorney to this form when you return it.

Companies: Where the company has a Sole Director who is also the Sole Company Secretary, this form must be signed by that person. If the company (pursuant to section 204A of the Corporations Act 2001) does not have a Company Secretary, a Sole Director can also sign alone. Otherwise this form must be signed by a Director jointly with either another Director or a Company Secretary. Please sign in the appropriate place to indicate the office held. Delete titles as applicable.
