EXPLANATORY STATEMEN T

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.

1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND REPORTS

In accordance with the Constitution, the business of the Meeting will include receipt and consideration of the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 31 December 2016 together with the declaration of the directors, the directors’ report, the Remuneration Report and the auditor’s report.

The Company will not provide a hard copy of the Company’s annual financial report to Shareholders unless specifically requested to do so. The Company’s annual financial report is available on its website at www.brooksid-energy.com.au

2. RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT

2.1 General

The Corporations Act requires that at a listed company’s annual general meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted must be put to the shareholders. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the company or the directors of the company.

The remuneration report sets out the company’s remuneration arrangements for the directors and senior management of the company. The remuneration report is part of the directors’ report contained in the annual financial report of the company for a financial year.

The chair of the meeting must allow a reasonable opportunity for its shareholders to ask questions about or make comments on the remuneration report at the annual general meeting.

2.2 Voting consequences

Under changes to the Corporations Act which came into effect on 1 July 2011, a company is required to put to its shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of another meeting of shareholders to consider the appointment of directors of the company ( Spill Resolution ) if, at consecutive annual general meetings, at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report and at the first of those annual general meetings a Spill Resolution was not put to vote. If required, the Spill Resolution must be put to vote at the second of those annual general meetings.

If more than 50% of votes cast are in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene a shareholder meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting.

All of the directors of the company who were in office when the directors' report (as included in the company’s annual financial report for the most recent financial year) was approved, other than the managing director of the company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting.

Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election as directors of the company is approved will be the directors of the company.

7

2.3 Previous voting results

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, the Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Annual General Meeting.

2.4 Proxy voting restrictions

Shareholders appointing a proxy for this Resolution should note the following:

Proxy	Directions given	No directions given
Key Management Personnel1	Vote as directed	Unable to vote3
Chair2	Vote as directed	Able to vote at discretion of Proxy4
Other	Vote as directed	Able to vote at discretion of Proxy

Notes:

• 1 Refers to Key Management Personnel (other than the Chair) whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report, or a Closely Related Party of such a member.

• 2 Refers to the Chair (where he/she is also a member of the Key Management Personnel whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report), or a Closely Related Party of such a member).

• 3 Undirected proxies granted to these persons will not be voted and will not be counted in calculating the required majority if a poll is called on this Resolution.

• 4 The Proxy Form notes it is the Chair’s intention to vote all undirected proxies in favour of all Resolutions.

3. RESOLUTION 2 – RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTOR – MICHAEL FRY

ASX Listing Rule 14.4 provides that a director of an entity must not hold office (without re-election) past the third AGM following the director’s appointment or three (3) years, whichever is the longer.

Clause 13.2 of the Constitution provides that at the Company's annual general meeting, every year, one-third of the Directors for the time being, or, if their number is not a multiple of three (3), then the number nearest one-third (rounded upwards in case of doubt), shall retire from office, provided always that no Director (except a Managing Director) shall hold office for a period in excess of three (3) years, or until the third annual general meeting following his or her appointment, whichever is the longer, without submitting himself or herself for reelection. In addition, ASX Listing Rule 14.5 requires that there must be an election of directors each year.

The Directors to retire at an annual general meeting are those who have been longest in 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 drawing lots.

A Director who retires by rotation under clause 13.2 of the Constitution is eligible for re-election.

8

In determining the number of Directors to retire, no account is to be taken of:

• (a) a Director who only holds office until the next annual general meeting pursuant to clause 13.4 of the Constitution; and/ or

• (b) a Managing Director,

each of whom are exempt from retirement by rotation. However, if more than one Managing Director has been appointed by the Directors, only one of them (nominated by the Directors) is entitled to be excluded from any determination of the number of Directors to retire and/or retirement by rotation.

The Company currently has three (3) Directors, of which one (1) is excluded from the determination of the number of Directors to retire, and accordingly one (1) must retire.

Non-Executive Chairman, Mr Michael Fry the director longest in office since his last election, retires by rotation and seeks re-election.

Qualifications

Michael Fry holds a Bachelor of Commerce degree from the University of Western Australia, is a Fellow of the Financial Services Institute of Australasia, and is a past member of the ASX. Michael has extensive experience in capital markets and corporate treasury management specialising in the identification of commodity, currency and interest rate risk and the implementation of risk management strategies.

Other Material Directorships

Michael Fry is currently the non-executive chairman of ASX Listed Companies Norwest Energy NL (ASX: NWE), Challenger Energy Limited (ASX: CEL) and Technology Metals Australia Limited (TMT).

Independence

The Board considers Mr Fry to be an independent director.

Board Recommendation

The Directors (other than Mr Michael Fry) recommend that Shareholders approve Resolution 2 for the election Mr Michael Fry.

4. RESOLUTION 3 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE – OPTIONS

4.1 General

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of 75,000,000 Options (exercisable on or before December 31, 2018 at $0.02) ( Options ) issued in accordance with the terms of the Drilling Joint Venture announced on 25 July 2016 ( Drilling JV ).

The Company issued the Options the subject of the Capital Raising without prior Shareholder approval out of its 15% annual placement capacity. Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of those Options.

9

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12-month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12-month period.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1) those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

By ratifying the issue the subject of Resolution 3, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

4.2 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.4

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to the Resolution 3:

• (a) 75,000,000 Options were issued pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1;

• (b) the Options were issued for nil consideration in accordance with the terms of the Drilling JV;

• (c) the Options issued were listed Options of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Options as set out in Schedule 1;

• (d) the Options were issued to Merchant Funds Management Pty Ltd (or their nominees) ( Merchant ); and

• (a) no funds were raised from this issue as the Options were issued in accordance with the terms of the Drilling JV.

5. RESOLUTION 4 – APPROVAL OF 10% PLACEMENT CAPACITY

5.1 General

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an Eligible Entity may seek Shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to allow it to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued capital ( 10% Placement Capacity ).

The Company is an Eligible Entity.

If Shareholders approve Resolution 3, the number of Equity Securities the Eligible Entity may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out in Section 7.2 below).

The effect of Resolution 4 will be to allow the Company to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of the Company’s fully paid ordinary securities on issue under the 10% Placement Capacity during the period up to 12 months after the Meeting, without subsequent Shareholder approval and without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity granted under Listing Rule 7.1.

10

Resolution 4 is a special resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 4 for it to be passed.

5.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A came into effect on 1 August 2012 and enables an Eligible Entity to seek shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to issue Equity Securities in addition to those under the Eligible Entity’s 15% annual placement capacity.

An Eligible Entity is one that, as at the date of the relevant annual general meeting:

• (a) is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index; and

• (b) has a maximum market capitalisation (excluding restricted securities and securities quoted on a deferred settlement basis) of $300,000,000.

The Company is an Eligible Entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a current market capitalisation of $10,270,000 based on the number of Shares on issue (790,000,000) as at the date of this Notice (1 May 2017) and the closing price of Shares ($0.013) on the ASX on the last day trading was recorded prior to the date of this Notice (28 April 2017).

Any Equity Securities issued must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted Equity Securities. The Company currently has two classes of Equity Securities on issue, being:

• (a) the Shares (ASX Code: BRK); and

• (b) Options expiring 31 December 2018 exercisable at $0.02 per Option (ASX Code: BRKO).

The exact number of Equity Securities that the Company may issue under an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated according to the following formula:

(A x D) – E

Where:

A is the number of Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

• (i) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2;

• (ii) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the previous 12 months;

• (iii) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months with approval of holders of Shares under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid ordinary shares under the entity’s 15% placement capacity without shareholder approval; and

(iv) less the number of Shares cancelled in the previous 12 months.

11

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 holders of Ordinary Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.

5.3 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to this Resolution 4:

(a) Minimum Price

The minimum price at which the Equity Securities may be issued is 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 ASX 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 5 ASX trading days of the date in section 7.3(a)(i), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

(b) Date of Issue

The Equity Securities may be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity commencing on the date of the Meeting and expiring on the first to occur of the following:

• (i) 12 months after the date of this Meeting; and

• (ii) the date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under ASX Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of the Company’s activities) or 11.2 (disposal of the Company’s main undertaking) (after which date, an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A ceases to be valid),

( 10% Placement Capacity Period ).

(c) Risk of voting dilution

Any issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue.

If Resolution 4 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Capacity, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below.

The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A(2), on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of Equity Securities on issue as at the date of this Notice.

12

The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 10% Placement Capacity.

Number of Shares on Issue (Variable ‘A’ in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A2)
		Dilution
	Issue Price (per Share)	$0.007 50% decrease in Issue Price	$0.013 Issue Price	$0.02 100% increase in Issue Price
790,000,000 (Current Variable A)	Shares issued 10% voting dilution	79,000,000 Shares	79,000,000	79,000,000 Shares
			Shares
	Funds raised	$513,500	$1,027,000	$1,540,500
1,185,000,000 (50% increase in Variable A)	Shares issued 10% voting dilution	118,500,000 Shares	118,500,000 Shares	118,500,000 Shares
	Funds raised	$770,250	$1,540,500	$2,310,750
1,580,000,000 (100% increase in Variable A)	Shares issued 10% voting dilution	158,000,000 Shares	158,000,000 Shares	158,000,000 Shares
	Funds raised	$1,027,000	$2,054,000	$3,081,000

* The number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a prorata rights issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

The table above uses the following assumptions:

1. There are 790,000,000 Shares on issue (being the number on issue as at the date of this Notice).

2. The issue price set out above is the last traded price of the Shares on the ASX prior to the date of this Notice (being $0.013 on 28 April 2017).

3. The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity.

4. The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

5. The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity consists only of Shares. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities.

6. The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.

7. This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

8. 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 as 10%.

9. 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 Capacity, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.

Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:

13

• (i) the market price for the Company’s Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and

• (ii) the Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Shares on the date of issue.

(d) Purpose of Issue under 10% Placement Capacity

The Company may issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for the following purposes:

• (i) as cash consideration in which case the Company intends to use funds raised for the acquisition of new assets and investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition), continued exploration expenditure on the Company’s current assets (funds would then be used for further development of the assets and ongoing operational costs) and general working capital; or

• (ii) as non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new assets and investments. In such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by listing Rule 7.1A.3.

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

(e)

Allocation policy under the 10% Placement Capacity

The Company’s allocation policy for the issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will be dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of the proposed placement(s).

The recipients of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been determined. However, the recipients of Equity Securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company.

The Company will determine the recipients at the time of the issue under the 10% Placement Capacity, having regard to the following factors:

• (i) the purpose of the issue;

• (ii) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;

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

• (iv) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company;

• (v) prevailing market conditions; and

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

14

• (f) Further, if the Company is successful in acquiring new resources, assets or investments, it is likely that the recipients under the 10% Placement Capacity will be vendors of the new resources, assets or investments.

(g)

Previous approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

The Company previously obtained approval from its Shareholders pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 30 May 2016 ( Previous Approval ).

During the 12-month period preceding the date of the Meeting, being on and from 30 May 2016, the Company issued a 215,000,000 Shares and 157,500,000 Quoted Options under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A and a further 115,000,000 Shares, 85,000,076 Quoted Options and 25,000,000 Unquoted Options with Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.3.

Cumulatively, these equity issues represent approximately 92.28% of the total diluted number of Equity Securities on issue in the Company on 30 May 2016, which was 647,499,924.

Further details of the issues of Equity Securities by the Company during the 12-month period preceding the date of the Meeting and pursuant to the Previous Approval are set out in Schedule 2.

(h) Compliance with ASX Listing Rules 7.1A.4 and 3.10.5A

When the Company issues Equity Securities pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity, it must give to ASX:

• (i) a list of the recipients of the Equity Securities and the number of Equity Securities issued to each (not for release to the market), in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A.4; and

• (ii) the information required by Listing Rule 3.10.5A for release to the market.

5.4 Voting Exclusion

A voting exclusion statement is included in this Notice. As at the date of this Notice, the Company has not invited any existing Shareholder to participate in an issue of Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. Therefore, no existing Shareholders will be excluded from voting on Resolution 4.

Instructions for completing Proxy Form

1.

( Appointing a proxy ): A Shareholder entitled to attend and cast a vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf at the Meeting. If a Shareholder is entitled to cast 2 or more votes at the Meeting, the Shareholder may appoint a second proxy to attend and vote on their behalf at the Meeting. However, where both proxies attend the Meeting, voting may only be exercised on a poll. The appointment of a second proxy must be done on a separate copy of the Proxy Form. A Shareholder who appoints 2 proxies may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If a Shareholder appoints 2 proxies and the appointments do not specify the proportion or number of the Shareholder’s votes each proxy is appointed to exercise, each proxy may exercise one-half of the votes. Any fractions of votes resulting from the application of these principles will be disregarded. A duly appointed proxy need not be a Shareholder.

2.

( Direction to vote ): A Shareholder may direct a proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite each item of business. The direction may specify the proportion or number of votes that the proxy may exercise by writing the percentage or number of Shares next to the box marked for the relevant item of business. Where a box is not marked the proxy may vote as they choose subject to the relevant laws. Where more than one box is marked on an item the vote will be invalid on that item.

3. ( Signing instructions ):

• ( Individual ): Where the holding is in one name, the Shareholder must sign.

• ( Joint holding ): Where the holding is in more than one name, all of the Shareholders should sign.

• ( Power of attorney ): If you have not already provided the power of attorney with the registry, please attach a certified photocopy of the power of attorney to this Proxy Form when you return it.

• ( Companies ): Where the company has a sole director who is also the sole company secretary, that person must sign. Where the company (pursuant to section 204A of the Corporations Act) does not have a company secretary, a sole director can also sign alone. Otherwise, a director jointly with either another director or a company secretary must sign. Please sign in the appropriate place to indicate the office held. In addition, if a representative of a company is appointed pursuant to section 250D of the Corporations Act to attend the Meeting, the documentation evidencing such appointment should be produced prior to admission to the Meeting. A form of a certificate evidencing the appointment may be obtained from the Company.

• ( Attending the Meeting ): Completion of a Proxy Form will not prevent individual Shareholders from attending the Meeting in person if they wish. Where a Shareholder completes and lodges a valid Proxy Form and attends the Meeting in person, then the proxy’s authority to speak and vote for that Shareholder is suspended while the Shareholder is present at the Meeting.

• ( Return of Proxy Form ): To vote by proxy, please complete and sign the enclosed Proxy Form and return by:

• (a) post to Brookside Energy Limited, PO Box 866, Subiaco WA 6904; or

• (b) facsimile to the Company on facsimile number +61 8 6489 1601; or
