In accordance with the Treasury Laws Amendment (2021 Measures No 1) Act 2021, the Company will not be sending hard copies of the Notice of Meeting to shareholders unless a shareholder has previously requested a hard copy.

1. BACKGROUND
As announced to ASX on 10 February 2022 ( Announcement ), the Company advised it had received commitments from overseas and Australian, sophisticated and professional investors and existing Directors to subscribe for up to 240 million fully paid shares ( Shares ) at an issue price of $0.011 per Share to raise $2,640,000 (before costs) together with up to 120 million free attaching Options (exercisable at $0.016 on or before 31 July 2023) ( Options )on the basis of 1 Option for every 2 Shares issued ( Capital Raising ).
The Capital Raising comprises two tranches:
-
203,636,360 Shares and 101,818,180 Options were issued on 16 February 2022 pursuant to the Company’s existing placement capacity under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 (in respect of a total of 101,818,180 Options) and 7.1A (in respect of a total of 203,636,360 Shares) ( Tranche 1 ); and
-
36,363,636 Shares (and 18,181,818 Options) to be issued to existing Directors, comprising Mr Gajewski (18,181,818 Shares and 9,090,909 Options) and Mr Beckwith (18,181,818 Shares and 9,090,909 Options), subject to Shareholder approval, which is being sought at this Meeting under Resolutions 4 and 5 ( Tranche 2 ).
Tranche 1 was issued on 16 February 2022 pursuant to the Company’s combined placement capacity under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A. The Company is seeking Shareholder approval under Resolutions 1 and 2 for the ratification of the issue of these Shares and Options.
The Company is also seeking Shareholder approval under Resolutions 4 and 5 for the issue of Tranche 2, for participation in the Capital Raising by two of the existing Directors, Mr Gajewski and Mr Beckwith.
In addition, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval for the ratification of the issue of 40,000,000 Options at an issue price of $0.00001 to Golden Triangle Capital Pty Ltd (‘GTCap’), the Lead Manager for the Capital Raising (refer to Resolution 3).
2. RESOLUTIONS 1 AND 2 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE – SHARES AND OPTIONS
2.1 Background
On 16 February 2022, the Company issued 203,636,360 Shares at an issue price of $0.011 per Share and 101,818,180 Options to raise $2.240 million. 203,636,360 Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s 7.1A mandate which was approved by Shareholders at the annual general meeting held on 26 November 2021 (being, the subject of Resolution 1) and 101,818,180 Options were issued pursuant to the Company’s capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 (being, the subject of Resolution 2).
GTCap acted as Lead Manager to the Capital Raising.
4
2.2 Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A
Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that 12 month period.
Under Listing Rule 7.1A however, an eligible entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25%.
The issue of the 203,636,360 Shares and 101,818,180 Options does not fit within any of the exceptions and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12 month period following the date of issue of the 203,636,360 Shares and 101,818,180 Options.
2.3
Listing Rule 7.4
Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.
The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, Resolutions 1 and 2 are seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the 203,636,360 Shares and 101,818,180 Options.
2.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If Resolutions 1 and 2 are passed, the 203,636,360 Shares and 101,818,180 Options will be excluded in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the 203,636,360 Shares and 101,818,180 Options.
If Resolutions 1 and 2 are not passed, the 203,636,360 Shares and 101,818,180 Options will be included in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the 203,636,360 Shares and 101,818,180 Options.
2.5 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.5

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.
3.2 Listing Rule 7.1
A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in section 2.2 above. Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary shares it had on issue at the start of that period.
The issue of the Options does not fit within any of these exceptions. The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 so that it does not use up any of its 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
6
3.3 Listing Rule 7.4
A summary of Listing Rule 7.4 is set out in section 2.3 above. Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.
The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, Resolution 3 is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the 40,000,000 Options.
3.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If Resolution 3 is passed, the 40,000,000 Options will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the 40,000,000 Options.
If Resolution 3 is not passed, the 40,000,000 Options will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rules 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the 40,000,000 Options.

4. RESOLUTIONS 4 AND 5 – PARTICIPATION BY DIRECTORS IN CAPITAL RAISING ISSUE OF SHARES AND OPTIONS

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of up to 18,181,818 Shares at an issue price of $0.011 per Share and 9,090,909 Options to Mr Gajewski (or his nominee) arising from participation by Mr Gajewski in Tranche 2 of the Capital Raising.

Mr Gajewski’s and Mr Beckwith’s participation in the Capital Raising will be on the same terms and conditions as the other participants.
4.2 ASX Listing Rule 10.11
Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed company must not issue or agree to issue equity securities to:
-
10.11.1 a related party;
-
10.11.2 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the company;
-
10.11.3 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (10%+) holder in the company and who has nominated a director to the board of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so;
-
10.11.4 an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3; or
-
10.11.5 a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders,
unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.
Two of the existing Directors, Mr Gajewski and Mr Beckwith, wish to participate in Tranche 2 of the Capital Raising following approval of Resolutions 4 and 5. Each of these persons is a related party within the terms of the ASX Listing Rules. Accordingly, the Company must obtain Shareholder approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.11 unless an exception applies. It is the view of the Directors that the exceptions set out in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply in the current circumstances.
Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of Securities to Mr Gajewski and Mr Beckwith (or their nominees) will not be included in the use of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
4.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If Resolutions 4 and 5 are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with
8
Tranche 2 of the Capital Raising in the proportions set out above in Section 4.1 above.
If Resolutions 4 and 5 are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of Tranche 2 of the Capital Raising.
4.4 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act – Related Party Transactions
For a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:
-
(a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and
-
(b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,
unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.
The Directors’ participation in Tranche 2 of the Capital Raising will result in the issue of Shares and Options which constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mr Gajewski and Mr Beckwith are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.
The terms and conditions upon which the related parties the subject of Resolutions 4 and 5 will subscribe for the Capital Raising Securities will be the same terms and conditions under which other investors have subscribed for Securities under the Capital Raising under Resolutions 1, 2 and 3 (being $0.011 per Share, together with one free attaching Option for every two Shares subscribed for and issued). On this basis, the Directors (other than Mr Gajewski with respect to Resolution 4 and Mr Beckwith with respect to Resolution 5, who have material personal interests in Resolutions 4 and 5 respectively) consider that the participation of the related parties could be seen to be on reasonable arms length terms (and thereby an exception to Chapter 2E) and accordingly, the Company will not also seek approval for the issue of Shares and Options to Mr Gajewski and Mr Beckwith pursuant to section 208 of the Corporations Act.
4.5 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 10.13
Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the Directors’ participation in the issue of Securities under Tranche 2 of the Capital Raising:
-
(a) the Securities, the subject of Resolutions 4 and 5, will be issued to Mr Gajewski and Mr Beckwith who are Directors of the Company (or their nominee(s));
-
(b) Pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11.1, Mr Gajewski and Mr Beckwith are related parties by virtue of being Directors.
-
(c) the maximum number of Securities to be issued is:
- (i) up to 18,181,818 Shares and 9,090,909 Options to Mr Gajewski (or his nominee); and
-
(ii) up to 18,181,818 Shares and 9,090,909 Options to Mr Beckwith (or his nominee).
Their subscription will be on the same terms and conditions as other subscribers to Tranche 1 of the Capital Raising, the subject of Resolutions 1 and 2. The Directors’ subscription, if approved by Shareholders, will form all of Tranche 2 of the Capital Raising;
- (d) the Securities will be issued no later than one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or
9
