• (c) ask the auditor questions about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the Auditor’s Report.

• (b)

• (d) the independence of the auditor in relation to the conduct of the audit,

6

may be submitted no later than five (5) Business Days before the Meeting to the Company Secretary at the Company’s registered office.

4. Resolution 1 – Adoption of Remuneration Report

Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act provides that the Company is required to put the Remuneration Report to the vote of Shareholders. The Directors’ Report contains the Remuneration Report which sets out the remuneration policy for the Company and reports the remuneration arrangements in place for the executive Directors, specified executives and non-executive Directors.

Section 250R(3) of Corporations Act provides that Resolution 1 is advisory only and does not bind the Directors of the Company of itself, a failure of Shareholders to pass Resolution 1 will not require the Directors to alter any of the arrangements in the Remuneration Report.

However, the Corporations Act also gives Shareholders the opportunity to remove the Board if the Remuneration Report receives a ‘no’ vote of 25% or more at two consecutive annual general meetings ( Two Strikes Rule ).

Under the Two Strikes Rule, where a resolution on the Remuneration Report receives a ‘no’ vote of 25% or more at two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders at the second annual general meeting a resolution on whether another meeting should be held (within 90 days) at which all Directors (other than the managing director) who were in office at the date of approval of the applicable Directors’ Report will cease to hold office immediately before that further meeting but may stand for reelection.

At the Company’s previous annual general meeting the votes cast against the Remuneration Report considered at that annual general meeting were less than 25%. Accordingly, a further resolution relating to the Two Strikes Rule is not relevant for this Annual General Meeting.

The Chair will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders as a whole to ask about, or make comments on the Remuneration Report.

The Chair intends to exercise all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1. If the Chair of the Meeting is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chair is to vote on Resolution 1, by signing and returning the Proxy Form, the Shareholder is considered to have provided the Chair with an express authorisation for the Chair to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chair’s intention.

5. Resolution 2 – Re-election of Director – Mr Stephen Woodham

Clause 6.3(c) of the Constitution requires that at the Company’s annual general meeting in every year, one-third of the Directors for the time being, or, if their number is not a multiple of 3, then the number nearest one-third (rounded down to the nearest whole number), shall retire from office, provided always that no Director (except a managing director) shall hold office for a period in excess of 3 years, or until the third annual general meeting following his or her appointment, whichever is the longer, without submitting himself or herself for re-election.

The Directors to retire at an annual general meeting are those who have been longest in the office since their last election, but, as between persons who became Directors on the same day, those to retire shall (unless they otherwise agree among themselves) be determined by

7

drawing lots. A retiring Director is eligible for re-election. An election of Directors shall take place each year.

Mr Stephen Woodham ( Mr Woodham ) will retire in accordance with clause 6.3(c) of the Constitution and being eligible, seeks re-election.

Details of Mr Woodham’s background and experience are set out in the Annual Report.

The Board (excluding Mr Woodham) recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2. The Chair of the meeting intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 2.

6. Resolution 3 – Approval of 10% Placement Facility

==> picture [19 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

General

Listing Rule 7.1A enables eligible entities to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued share capital through placements commencing from the date of the Meeting where the Company obtains the approval until the earlier of the following:

• (a) the date that is 12 months after the date of the Meeting at which the approval is obtained;

• (b) the time and date of the Company’s next annual general meeting; or

• (c) the time and date of the approval of Shareholders of a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 or 11.2 in respect of the Company,

( 10% Placement Facility ).

The 10% Placement Facility is in addition to the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

An eligible entity for the purposes of 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. The Company currently has a market capitalisation of $3,577,500 (based on the number of Shares on issue and the closing price on the ASX on 16 October 2023) and is an eligible entity.

The Company is now seeking Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to have the ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility.

The exact number of Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Facility will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer Section 6.2(c) below).

==> picture [20 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Description of Listing Rule 7.1A

(a) Shareholder approval

The ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility is subject to shareholder approval by way of a special resolution at an annual general meeting. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 3 for it to be passed.

8

(b) Equity Securities

Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility must be in the same class as an existing quoted class of Equity Securities of the Company.

The Company, as at the date of the Notice, has on issue two classes of quoted Equity Securities, being Shares (ASX: CBH) and Listed Options (ASX: CBHO).

(c) Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility

Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that eligible entities which have obtained shareholder approval at an annual general meeting may issue or agree to issue, during the 12 month period after the annual general meeting, a number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:

(A x D) – E

Where:

• A is the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of the relevant period:

• (A) plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 other than Exception 9,16 or 17;

• (B) plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in relevant period on the conversion of convertible securities within Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 9 where:

  • (1) the convertible securities were issued or agreed to be issued before the commencement of the relevant period; or

  • (2) the issue of, or agreement to issue, the convertible securities approved, or taken to have been approved, under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4;

• (C) plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in relevant period under an agreement to issue securities within Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 16 where:

  • (1) the agreement was entered into before the commencement of the relevant period; or

  • (2) the agreement or issue was approved, or taken under these rules to have been approved, under rule 7.1 or rule 7.4;

• (D) plus the number of any other fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period with approval under rule 7.1 or rule 7.4;

• (E) plus the number of partly paid ordinary securities that became fully paid in the relevant period;

• (F) less the number of fully paid shares cancelled in the relevant period.

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

9

D is 10%.

• E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the relevant period where the issue or agreement has not been subsequently approved by the holders of its ordinary securities under Listing Rule 7.4.

(d) Listing Rule 7.1A and Listing Rule 7.3A

The ability of an entity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A is in addition to the entity’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

At the date of this Notice, the Company has on issue 71,550,001 Shares and therefore has a capacity to issue:

• (i) 10,732,500 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1; and

• (ii) 7,155,000 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.

The actual number of Equity Securities that the Company will have capacity to issue under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated at the date of issue of the Equity Securities in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to Section 6.2(c) above).

(e)

Minimum Issue Price

The issue price of Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A must be not less than 75% of the VWAP of Equity Securities in the same class calculated over the 15 Trading Days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

• (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 10 Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

(f)

10% Placement Period

Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under Listing Rule 7.1A is valid from the date of the Meeting at which the approval is obtained and expires on the earlier to occur of:

• (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the Meeting at which the approval is obtained;

• (ii) the time and date of the entity’s next annual general meeting; or

• (iii) the time and date of the approval by shareholders of the eligible entity’s ordinary securities of a transaction under Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking),

( 10% Placement Period ).

10

==> picture [20 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Listing Rule 7.1A

The effect of Resolution 3 will be to allow the Directors to issue the Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the 10% Placement Period without using the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 3 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative) on the Resolution.

==> picture [21 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, information is provided in relation to the approval of the 10% Placement Facility as follows:

• (a) The Equity Securities will be issued at an issue price of not less than 75% of the VWAP for the Company’s Equity Securities over the 15 Trading Days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

• (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 10 Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

• (b) If Resolution 3 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility, the existing Shareholders’ voting power in the Company will be diluted as shown in the below table (in the case of Listed Options, only if the Listed Options are exercised). There is a risk that:

• (i) the market price for the Company’s Equity Securities in that class may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than of the date of the Meeting; and

• (ii) 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,

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

The below table 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 Listing Rule 7.1A(2) as at the date of this Notice.

The table shows:

• (i) 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 on issue may increase as a result of issues of ordinary securities that do not require Shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or future specific placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders’ meeting; and

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

11

Variable “A” in Listing Rule 7.1A.2	Variable “A” in Listing Rule 7.1A.2		Dilution
		$0.025 50% decrease in Issue Price	$0.05 Issue Price	$0.10 100% increase in Issue Price
Current Variable “A” 71,550,001 Shares	10% Voting Dilution	7,155,000	7,155,000	7,155,000
	Funds raised	$178,875	$357,750	$715,500
50% increase in current Variable “A 107,325,001 Shares	10% Voting Dilution	10,732,500	10,732,500	10,732,500
	Funds raised	$268,313	$536,625	$1,073,250
100% increase in current Variable “A” 143,100,002 Shares	10% Voting Dilution	14,310,000	14,310,000	14,310,000
	Funds raised	$357,750	$715,500	$1,431,000

Note

The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

1. The Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility.

2. No Options (including any Options issued under the 10% Placement Facility) are exercised into Shares before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities;

3. 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 at 10%.

4. The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Facility, based on the Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.

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

6. The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares. If the issue of Equity Securities includes Listed Options, it is assumed that those Listed Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.

7. The issue price is $0.05, being the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 16 October 2023.

8. (c) the 10% Placement Period. The approval under Resolution 3 for the issue of the Equity Securities will cease to be valid in the event that Shareholders approve a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change to a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking).

9. (d) The Company can only issue Equity Securities for cash consideration. In such circumstances, the Company intends to use the funds raised towards an acquisition of new assets or investments (including expenses associated with such acquisition), continued exploration and general working capital.

10. (e) The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under the Listing Rule 7.1A(4) upon issue of any Equity Securities.

11. (f) The Company’s allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Facility. The identity

12

of the allottees of the Equity Securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factors including but not limited to the following:

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

• (ii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;

• (iii) the financial situation and solvency of the Company; and

• (iv) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).

The allottees under the 10% Placement Facility have not been determined as at the date of this Notice but may include existing substantial Shareholders and/or new Shareholders who are not Related Parties or associates of a Related Party of the Company.

• (g) The Company previously obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 24 November 2022. In the 12 months preceding the date of the 2023 Annual General Meeting, the Company issued a total of 5,095,000 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, representing 10% of the total number of Equity Securities on issue at 24 November 2022. Details of the Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A in the preceding 12 month period are set out in Schedule 2.

• (h) For the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 14.1A (and in addition to the disclosure in clause 6.4(b) above):

• (i) if Resolution 3 is passed, the Directors will be able to issue the Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the 10% Placement Period without using the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1; and

• (ii) if Resolution 3 is not passed, the Directors will not be able to issue the Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, and will have to either rely on the Company's existing 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 (from time to time), or (in the event that the Company’s 15% placement capacity is exhausted) the Company will be required to obtain prior shareholder approval under Listing Rules 7.1 before being able to issue such Equity Securities (which may result in the Company incurring further time and expense).

At the date of the Notice, the Company has not approached any particular existing Shareholder or security holder or an identifiable class of existing security holder to participate in the issue of the Equity Securities.

The Directors of the Company believe Resolution 3 is in the best interest of the Company and its Shareholders and unanimously recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.
