An Explanatory Memorandum to shareholders follows this Notice.

By Order of the Board

W J Kernaghan Company Secretary 29 November 2012

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

This Explanatory Memorandum has been prepared for the information of shareholders of Gulf Industrials Limited (“Gulf” or “the Company”) in connection with the business to be transacted at the Extraordinary General Meeting of shareholders of Gulf to be held at Regus, Level 34, AMP Centre, 50 Bridge Street, Sydney at 11 am (AEDST) on Friday, 4 January 2013.

The Directors recommend shareholders read the accompanying Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting (“Notice”) and this Explanatory Memorandum in full before making any decision in relation to the resolutions.

ITEM 1 │ Resolutions 1 to 4 inclusive

Background

As announced to ASX on 15 November 2012, Gulf’s wholly owned subsidiary, GLF Holdings Limited (“GH”) has entered into two bridge loan facilities for an aggregate of $2 million (the “Bridge Loans”) from entities controlled by two of its major shareholders, being Richmond Partners Masters Limited (“Richmond”) and Jonah Capital (BVI) Limited (“Jonah”). The funds from the Bridge Loans are to be used for working capital purposes in the ordinary course of business of the Group pending a larger capitalisation of the group, which must be completed by 31 January 2013. Subject to approval of Gulf shareholders at this meeting, the Bridge Loans will be secured over Gulf’s Ugandan assets, including the shares in its Ugandan subsidiary, Gulf Resources Uganda Limited (“GRUL”), the mining lease and the exploration licences.

GH has a loan agreement with GRUL to provide loans of up to $4m at its discretion.

The security for these loans is as follows:

  • I. a first ranking charge over GRUL’s Mining Lease and property comprised in ML 4651 at Namekara in Manafwa District in the Republic of Uganda;

  • II. a first fixed charge over GRUL’s exploration licences No. EL 0620,EL 066 and EL 0713 in the Manafwa District

  • III. a first floating charge over all other undertaking and assets of GRUL present or future including those for the time being charged by way specific charge to secure the loan.

Currently, GH holds the above security over the assets of GRUL, and if shareholder approval is obtained under resolutions 1 and 2, GH will assign this security, and grant a pledge over the shares that it holds in GRUL, to Richmond and Jonah (or a trustee to hold on their behalf).

If the security is assigned and the pledge is granted to Richmond and Jonah (or a trustee to hold on their behalf), then the Bridge Loans will become limited recourse loans.

Under the Bridge Loan transaction documents, Gulf is also required to seek shareholder approval to issue a total of 460,000,000 unlisted options to Richmond and Jonah. This shareholders’ meeting is to approve the assignment of security and grant of the pledge, and issue of options, to Richmond and Jonah. This notice of meeting also contains an Independent Expert’s Report in respect to the assignment of security and grant of the pledge in accordance with the terms of the Bridge Loans.

Under the Bridge Loans, Richmond will provide $1.25 million and Jonah will provide $0.75 million. There is a provision in the Bridge Loans to provide additional funds by mutual agreement.

Listing Rules

ASX Listing Rule 10.1 requires the approval of shareholders where an entity proposes to acquire a substantial asset from, or dispose of a substantial asset to:

  • A related party or an associate of a related party;

  • A subsidiary or an associate of a subsidiary; or

  • A substantial shareholder or an associate of a substantial shareholder. A substantial shareholder is defined by the ASX Listing Rules as a shareholder with a relevant interest at any time in the six months prior to the Proposed Transaction, in at least 5% of the total votes attached to the voting securities.

An asset is substantial if its value, or the value of the consideration for it, is greater than 5% of the total equity interests of the entity as at the date of the last accounts given to the ASX.

The assignment of the security and the grant of the pledge constitutes a disposal of those assets for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.1. As at 30 June 2012 the carrying value of the Asset Security was approximately $ 6,288,102 this is greater than 5% of the total equity interest in the Company at 30 June 2012.

The Company has engaged BDO Corporate Finance to prepare an Independent Expert’s Report in relation to the Proposed Transaction to satisfy the requirement of ASX Listing Rule 10.1.

The Independent Expert’s Report is attached to this Notice of Meeting and Explanatory Statement as Appendix A and has concluded it is fair and reasonable to the non associated shareholders

Resolution 1 – Approval under Listing Rule 10.1 for the assignment of security and grant of pledge to Jonah

The Company proposes to assign security and grant a pledge over the shares that GH holds in GRUL to Jonah in relation to the Bridge Loan of $750,000 (“Jonah Bridge Loan”) which requires shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.1.

The key terms of the Jonah Bridge Loan are as follows:

Failure to pay Jonah in accordance with its obligations under the transaction

described above.
Warranties Warranties given include:

Corporations registered

All information provided by GH was true and accurate in all material respects.

There has been no material adverse change in the business or financial
condition of GH since the most recent financial informationprovided to Jonah.

It has no material assets other than shares in GRUL and its rights under the
transaction documents.

Other than disclosed to Jonah,GH has not incurred anyfinancial indebtedness.
Default Fee If an event of default occurs then a fee equal to 30% of the amount outstanding under
the Jonah Bridge Loan(includingaccrued interest and outstandingfees)ispayable.
Non assignment Fee If shareholders do not approve the assignment of the security from GH to Jonah, then a
fee equal to 30% of the amount outstanding under the Jonah Bridge Loan (including
accrued interest and outstandingfees)ispayable.

the amount outstanding under the Jonah Bridge Loan (including accrued interest and
outstandingfees)ispayable.
Change of Control Fee If there is a Change of Control Event in Gulf then a fee equal to 30% of the amount
outstanding under the Jonah Bridge Loan (including accrued interest and outstanding
fees) is payable. Change of Control Event means an event the occurrence of which has
the effect that any person (other than the Richmond or Jonah or their associates,
affiliates or related entities) acquires a relevant interest in 30% or more of Gulf’s issued
share capital,other than as the result of a rights issue.
Mandatory Repayment The net proceeds from any equity financing is to be used to pay down the Bridge Loans
and associated costs

As set out above, the Jonah Bridge Loan carries fees which are payable if Resolution 1 is not passed by shareholders; if there is an event of default; or there is a Change of Control of the Company. These fees, which are cumulative, amount to a maximum of 120% of the value of the amount outstanding under the Jonah Bridge Loan (including accrued interest and outstanding fees). A failure to pass Resolution 1 could therefore affect the ability to raise additional funds and could affect the financial viability of the Company.

Gulf has engaged BDO Corporate Finance (East Coast) Pty Ltd (“BDO”) as the independent expert report to report on the assignment of the security and the grant of the Pledge and it has concluded that it is fair and reasonable to non‐associated shareholders.

The Directors recommend Shareholders vote in favour of the assignment of the security over Gulf’s Ugandan assets, including the mining lease and the exploration licences, and the grant of the pledge, to Jonah in respect of the Jonah Bridge Loan.

All information provided by GLF Holdings was true and accurate in all material

condition of GH since the most recent financial information provided to
Richmond.

It has no material assets other than shares in GRUL and its rights under the
transaction documents.

Other than disclosed to Richmond, GH has not incurred any financial
indebtedness.
Default Fee If a default occurs then a fee equal to 30% of the amount outstanding under the
Richmond Bridge Loan(includingaccrued interest and outstandingfees)ispayable.

and outstandingfees)ispayable.
Change of Control Fee If there be a Change of Control Event in Gulf then a fee equal to 30% of the amount
outstanding under the Richmond Bridge Loan (including accrued interest and outstanding
fees) is payable. Change of Control Event means an event the occurrence of which has
the effect that any person (other than the Richmond or Jonah or their associates,
affiliates or related entities) acquires a relevant interest in 30% or more of Gulf’s issued
share capital,other than as the result of a rights issue.

As set out above, the Richmond Bridge Loan carries fees which are payable if this resolution at this Extraordinary General Meeting is not passed by shareholders; if there is an event of default; or there is a change of control of the company. These fees, which are cumulative, are a maximum of 120% of the value of the amount outstanding on the Richmond Bridge Loan (including accrued interest and outstanding fees). A failure to pass the resolution could therefore affect the ability to raise additional funds and could affect the financial viability of the Company.

Gulf has engaged BDO as the independent expert report to report on the assignment of the security and the grant of the Pledge and it has concluded that it is fair and reasonable to non‐associated shareholders.

The Directors recommend Shareholders vote in favour of the assignment of the security over Gulf’s Ugandan assets, including the mining lease and the exploration licences, and the grant of the pledge, to Richmond in respect of the Richmond Bridge Loan.

Resolution 3 ‐ Approval of issue of options to Jonah Capital (BVI) Limited

The Company proposes to issue up to 172,500,000 Options to Jonah for the provision of the Jonah Bridge Loan to the Company.

In respect of the Options being issued to Jonah, Gulf will require shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.11. ASX Listing Rule 10.11 provides that Gulf must not issue options to a related party of the Company without shareholder approval. Jonah is a related party of Gulf by virtue of the fact that Sir Samuel Jonah, a former director of Gulf, controls Jonah. For the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 14, if approval is given by the shareholders under ASX Listing Rule 10.11 to the issue of Options to Jonah, the approval of shareholders is not required under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. That approval is sought in resolution 3.

ASX Listing Rule 10.13 requires that the following information be provided to shareholders when seeking approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.11:

Table 1: Details of the Options to be issued to Jonah Capital

Name of the allottee Jonah Capital BVI Limited
The maximum number of options to be issued 172,500,000 Options
The date which the options will be issued The Options will be issued as soon as practicable after the date of
the Extraordinary General Meeting and in any event no later than
one month after the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting or
such later time as ASX may allow. It is expected that the options will
be issued on 9 January 2013.
The price at which the options will be issued The options will be issued for no consideration.
The terms of the options The exercise price of the options will be 0.2 cents and have an expiry
date of 5 years from the date of issue. All shares issued upon the
exercise of the Options will rank equally in all respects with the
existing fully paid ordinary shares. See Annexure B for full terms
and conditions. The Company will not apply for the quotation of the
Options on ASX.
The intended use of the funds raised No funds will be raised from the grant of the Options. Any funds
raised on exercise of the Options will be used for workingcapital.

If shareholders do not approve the issue of options to Jonah then a fee equal to 30% of the amount outstanding under the Bridge Loan (including accrued interest and outstanding fees) is payable. A failure to pass the resolution could therefore affect the ability to raise additional funds and could affect the financial viability of the Company. As noted above, it is expected that the options will be issued to Jonah on 9 January 2013. This date is important as if the options were issued to Johah before 31 December 2012, the Company would be in breach of Listing Rule 7.16 which prohibits an entity from issuing options if it would have more options on issue than underlying securities (as a number of existing Gulf options expire on 31 December 2012).

The Directors recommend Shareholders vote in favour of the issue of these options.

Resolution 4 ‐ Approval of issue of options to Richmond

The Company proposes to issue up to 287,500,000 Options to Richmond for the provision of the Richmond Bridge Loan to the Company

In respect of the Options being issued to Richmond, Gulf is seeking shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

ASX Listing Rule 7.3 requires that the following information be provided to shareholders when seeking approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1

Table 1: Details of the Options to be issued to Richmond

Name of the allottee Richmond Partners Master Limited
The maximum number of options to be issued 287,500,000 Options
The date which the options will be issued The Options will be issued as soon as practicable after the date of
the Extraordinary General Meeting and in any event no later than
one month after the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting or
such later time as ASX may allow. It is expected that the options will
be issued on 9 January 2013.
The price at which the options will be issued The options will be issued for no consideration.
The terms of the options The exercise price of the options will be 0.2 cents and have an expiry
date of 5 years from the date of issue. All shares issued upon the
exercise of the Options will rank equally in all respects with the
existing fully paid ordinary shares. See Annexure B for full terms
and conditions. The Company will not apply for the quotation of the
Options on ASX.
The intended use of the funds raised No funds will be raised from the grant of the Options. Any funds
raised on exercise of the Options will be used for workingcapital

If shareholders do not approve the issue of options to Richmond then a fee equal to 30% of the amount outstanding under the Richmond Bridge Loan (including accrued interest and outstanding fees) is payable. A failure to pass the resolution could therefore affect the ability to raise additional funds and could affect the financial viability of the Company. As noted above, it is expected that the options will be issued to Richmond on 9 January 2013. This date is important as if the options were issued to Richmond before 31 December 2012, the Company would be in breach of Listing Rule 7.16 which prohibits an entity from issuing options if it would have more options on issue than underlying securities (as a number of existing Gulf options expire on 31 December 2012).

The Directors recommend Shareholders vote in favour of the issue of these options.

You may complete and return the Appointment of Proxy included with this Notice. If you require a second proxy form, please contact the Company Secretary or you may copy the Proxy Form.
