EXPLANATORY STATEMENT TO SHAREHOLDERS
1. ACTION TO BE TAKEN BY SHAREHOLDERS
This Explanatory Statement sets out information about the Resolutions to be considered by the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Defined terms used in this Explanatory Statement are set out in Section 6. Accompanying this Explanatory Statement is the Notice of Annual General Meeting convening the Annual General Meeting and a Proxy Form.
Shareholders are encouraged to attend and vote on the Resolutions to be put to the Annual General Meeting. If a Shareholder is not able to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting, the Shareholder may complete the Proxy Form and return it not later than 48 hours before the time specified for the commencement of the Annual General Meeting.
2. ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORTS
The Corporations Act requires the Company’s financial statements and reports of the Directors and of the auditor for the year ended 30 June 2017 to be laid before the Annual General Meeting. The financial statements and the reports of the Directors and of the auditor are contained in the Company’s 2017 Annual Report, a copy of which is available on the Company’s website at www.bulletinresources.com.
Whilst no Resolution is required in relation to this item, Shareholders should consider the documents and raise any matters of interest with the Directors when this item is being considered.
A representative from the Company’s auditors will be invited to the meeting and Shareholders will have an opportunity to ask the auditor questions in relation to the conduct of the audit, the auditor’s report, the Company’s accounting policies and the independence of the auditor.
3. RESOLUTION 1: ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT
The Remuneration Report is required to be considered for adoption in accordance with section 250R of the Corporations Act. 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 the financial year ending 30 June 2017.
A reasonable opportunity will be given for the discussion of the Remuneration Report at the Annual General Meeting. Shareholders should note that the vote on this Resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Company or the Directors.
If at least 25% of the votes cast on the Resolution are voted against adoption of the Remuneration Report at the Annual General Meeting, and then again at the Company's 2018 annual general meeting, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of an extraordinary general meeting to consider the appointment of Directors of the Company (“Spill Resolution”). If more than 50% of Shareholders vote in favour of the Spill Resolution, the Company must convene the extraordinary general meeting (“Spill Meeting”) within 90 days of the Company's 2018 annual general meeting. All of the Directors who were in office when the Company's 2018 Directors' Report 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 is approved will be the Directors of the Company.
The Company’s Shareholders have approved the Remuneration Report at each previous annual general meeting.
A Spill Resolution will not be required at this Annual General Meeting as the votes against the Remuneration Report at the Company’s 2016 annual general meeting were less than 25%.
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT - 4 -
A voting exclusion statement in relation to this Resolution 1 is included in the Notice of Annual General Meeting.
The Chairman intends to exercise all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1. If the Chairman of the Annual General Meeting is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chairman is to vote on Resolution 1, by signing and returning the Proxy Form, the Shareholder is considered to have provided the Chairman with an express authorisation for the Chairman to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chairman’s intention.
4. RESOLUTION 2: RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTOR – ROBERT MARTIN
Clause 7.1(e) of the Constitution requires that at the Company's annual general meeting in every year, onethird of the Directors for the time being, or, if their number is not a multiple of 3, then the number nearest onethird (rounded downwards 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 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 7.1(e) of the Constitution is eligible for re-election. The Company currently has three Directors, accordingly one Director must retire.
Robert Martin retires by rotation and seeks re-election.
Mr Martin has over 40 years’ experience in the management and operation of resource projects and other commercial undertakings. He is also a significant shareholder of the company, through his entity Goldfire Enterprises Pty Ltd.
Mr Martin is also a director of Auris Minerals Limited.
The Board unanimously supports the re-election of Mr Martin.
5. RESOLUTION 3: APPROVAL OF 10% PLACEMENT CAPACITY
5.1. General
Listing Rule 7.1A enables eligible entities to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of their issued capital through placements over a 12 month period after the annual general meeting ( 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 market capitalization of the Company as at 13 October 2017 is $6.10 million. The Company is therefore an eligible entity.
The Company is seeking Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to have the ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility.
The 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 to Section 6.2(c) below).
The Company intends to use the funds raised under the 10% Placement Facility towards identifying and evaluating new projects, exploration on these new projects and/or for general working capital. In addition, the Company may, in future, choose to evaluate new investments and may use the funds raised for the acquisition (including expenses associated with such acquisition).
The Directors recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
- 5 -
==> picture [451 x 66] intentionally omitted <==
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).
5.2. 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.
(b) Equity Security
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.
As at the date of this Notice of Annual General Meeting, the Company has one class of quoted Equity Security, being Shares.
(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 date of the annual general meeting, a number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:
(A x D) – E
A is the number of fully paid ordinary shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:
-
(a) plus the number of fully paid ordinary shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;
-
(b) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the 12 months;
-
(c) plus the number of fully paid ordinary shares issued in the 12 months with approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 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;
-
(d) less the number of fully paid shares cancelled in the 12 months.
Note that “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 Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of the issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.
(d) Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A
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.
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 5.2(c) above).
(e)
10% Placement Period
Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under Listing Rule 7.1A is valid from the date of the annual general 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 annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained; or
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
- 6 -
==> picture [451 x 66] intentionally omitted <==
- (ii) the date of the approval by shareholders 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 ”).
5.3. Listing Rule 7.1A
The effect of Resolution 3 will be to allow the Company to issue 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.
5.4. 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 of the Company’s Equity Securities in the same class calculated over the 15 Trading Days on which trades were recorded in that class 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 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, there is a risk that the economic value and voting power of each Share in the Company may be diluted, including a risk that:
-
(i) the market price for the Company’s Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than on the date of approval at the Annual General 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 or as part of consideration for the acquisition of a new asset.
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 (with numbers rounded to the nearest whole number). This assumes the Company has its full capacity available under Listing Rule 7.1A and Resolution 3 is passed at the Annual General Meeting. The formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 is outlined in Section 5.2(c) above.
The table also shows:
-
(i) two examples where variable ‘A’ has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable ‘A’ is based on the number of Shares the Company has on issue. The number of Shares 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 of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 50% as against the current market price.

The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:
-
(i) The Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility.
-
(ii) No Options are exercised into Shares before the date of the issue of Equity Securities.
-
(iii) 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%.
-
(iv) 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 that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Annual General Meeting.
-
(v) 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.
-
(vi) The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares.
-
(vii) The issue price is $0.034, being the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 13 October 2017.
-
(c) The Company will only issue the Equity Securities during the 10% Placement Period.
-
(d)
-
The Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for the following purposes:
-
(i) 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; or
-
(ii) Cash consideration for the purpose of identifying and evaluating new projects, exploring these new projects and/or for general working capital. In addition, the Company may, in future, choose to evaluate new investments and may use the funds raised for the acquisition (including expenses associated with such acquisition).
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) 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 of the subscribers of 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 issues or other issues in which existing security holders can participate;
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
-

-
(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 advisors (if applicable).
The subscribers under the 10% Placement Facility have not been determined as at the date of this Notice of Annual General Meeting but may include existing substantial Shareholders and/or new Shareholders who are not related parties or associates of a related party of the Company.
- (f) The Company previously obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at its 2016 annual general meeting held on 18 November 2016.
The total number of Equity Securities issued by the Company in the 12 months preceding the date of the Annual General Meeting is 15,500,000. The percentage those Equity Securities represent of the total number of Equity Securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period is 8.65%. The table at Annexure A details all issues of Equity Securities by the Company during the 12 months preceding the date of the Annual General Meeting as required by Listing Rule 7.3A.
- (g) A voting exclusion statement in relation to this Resolution 3 is included in the Notice of Annual General Meeting. At the date of the Notice of Annual General Meeting, the Company has not approached any particular existing Shareholder or security holder or an identifiable class or existing security holder to participate in an issue of Equity Securities pursuant to the Resolution. No existing Shareholder’s votes will therefore be excluded under the voting exclusion in this Notice.
