In accordance with the Constitution, the business of the Annual General Meeting will include receipt and consideration of the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2022 together with the declaration of the Directors, the Directors’ report, the Remuneration Report, and the auditor’s report.
There is no requirement for shareholders to approve these reports. However, time will be allowed during the annual general meeting for consideration by shareholders of the financial statements and the associated directors’ and auditors’ reports.
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.cavalierresources.com.au
The Company’s Annual Report is placed before the Shareholders for discussion.
No voting is required for this item.
3. Resolution 1: Adoption of Remuneration Report
3.1 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.
3.2 Voting consequences
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.

The Chair intends to vote all available proxies in favour of Resolution 5.
8. Resolution 6: Approval of 10% Placement Capacity
8.1 General
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 period.
However, under Listing Rule 7.1A, an eligible entity may seek shareholder approval by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25% ( 10% Placement Capacity ).
An ‘eligible entity’ means an entity which is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300,000,000 or less. The Company is an eligible entity for these purposes.
Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval by way of special resolution for the Company to have the 10% Placement Capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval.
If Resolution 6 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities up to the combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without any further Shareholder approval.
If Resolution 6 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the 10% Placement Capacity to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A, and will remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing Equity Securities without Shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.
8.2 Information on 10% Placement Capacity
(a) Quoted securities
Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Capacity must be in the same class as an existing class of Equity Securities of the Company that are quoted on ASX.
As at the date of this Notice, the Company currently has one class of Equity Securities quoted on the ASX, being Ordinary Shares (ASX Code: CVR).
(b) Formula for 10% Placement Capacity
If this Resolution 6 is passed, the Company may issue or agree to issue, during the 12 month period after this Meeting, the number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:
Additional Placement Capacity = (A x D) – E
-
A = the number of fully-paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of the Relevant Period:
-
plus the number of fully-paid ordinary securities issued in the Relevant Period under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 other than exception 9, 16, or 17;
-
plus the number of fully-paid ordinary securities issued in the Relevant Period on the conversion of convertible securities within Listing Rule 7.2 exception 9 where:
Page 8 of 14
Notice of Annual General Meeting
-
the convertible securities were issued or agreed to be issued before the commencement of the Relevant Period; or
- the issue of, or agreement to issue, the convertible securities was approved, or taken under the Listing Rules to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4;
-
plus the number of fully-paid ordinary securities issued in the Relevant Period under an agreement to issue securities within rule 7.2 exception 16 where:
-
the agreement was entered into before the commencement of the Relevant Period; or
-
the agreement or issue was approved, or taken under the Listing Rules to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4;
-
-
plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the Relevant Period with approval under Listing Rule 7.1 or ASX Listing Rule 7.4;
-
plus the number of partly-paid ordinary securities that became fully-paid in the Relevant Period;
-
less the number of fully-paid ordinary securities cancelled in the Relevant Period;
-
D = 10%; and
-
E = 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 Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.4.
8.3 Listing Rule requirements
Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to this Resolution 6:
(a) Period for which the 10% Placement Capacity is valid
The 10% Placement Capacity will commence on the date of the Meeting at which the Shareholder approval is obtained and expire on the first to occur of the following:
-
(i) the date that is 12 months after the date of this Meeting (i.e. 30 November 2022), presuming Shareholder approval is obtained;
-
(ii) the time and date of the Company’s next annual general meeting; and
-
(iii) the time and date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change in the nature or scale of activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of the main undertaking).
(b) Minimum Price at which equity securities may be issued
Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Capacity will be in an existing quoted class of Equity Securities and be issued at a minimum price of 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that 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 by the entity and the recipient of the Equity Securities; or
-
(ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 trading days of the date in paragraph (a) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
(c) Use of funds raised under 10% Placement Capacity
The Company intends to use funds raised from issues of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for:
-
(i) the acquisition of new resources, assets and investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition);
-
(ii) continued exploration expenditure on the Company’s current assets/or projects (funds would then be used for project, feasibility studies and ongoing project administration);
Page 9 of 14
Notice of Annual General Meeting
-
(iii) the development of the Company’s current business; and
-
(iv) general working capital.
(d) Risk of voting dilution
If Resolution 6 is passed and the Company issues securities under the 10% Placement Capacity, then there is a risk to existing Shareholders of economic and voting dilution, including the risk that:
-
(i) the market price for Equity Securities in the same class may be significantly lower on the issue date of the new Equity Securities than on the date Shareholder approval is obtained for this Resolution; and
-
(ii) the new Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for Equity Securities in the same class on the issue date.
The table below shows the potential dilution of existing Shareholders following the issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity (based on the formula set out above) using difference variables for the number of issued Ordinary Shares and the market price of Ordinary Shares. The table overleaf is calculated using the closing market price of Shares and the number of Equity Securities on issue as at 12 October 2022.
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 | Dilution | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Issue Price (per Share) |
$0.0875 (50% decrease in current issue price) |
$0.1750 (Current issue price) |
$0.2625 (50% increase in current issue price) |
|
| 43,031,800 (Current Variable A) |
Shares issued – 10% voting dilution |
4,303,180 | 4,303,180 | 4,303,180 |
| Funds raised | $376,528 | $753,057 | $1,129,585 | |
| 64,547,700 (50% increase in Variable A) |
Shares issued – 10% voting dilution |
6,454,770 | 6,454,770 | 6,454,770 |
| Funds raised | $564,792 | $1,129,585 | $1,694,377 | |
| 86,063,600 (100% increase in Variable A) |
Shares issued – 10% voting dilution |
8,606,360 | 8,606,360 | 8,606,360 |
| Funds raised | $753,057 | $1,506,113 | $2,259,170 |
*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 pro-rata 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:
-
(i) There are 43,031,800 Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice (ASX Code: CVR).
-
(ii) The issue price set out above is the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 12 October 2022.
-
(iii) The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity.
-
(iv) 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.
-
(v) 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.
Page 10 of 14
Notice of Annual General Meeting
-
(vi) 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.
-
(vii) This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 unless otherwise disclosed.
-
(viii) 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%.
-
(ix) 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:
-
(1) the market price for the Company’s Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and
-
(2) 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.
(e)
Allocation under the 10% Placement Capacity
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:
-
(1) the purpose of the issue;
-
(2) 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;
-
(3) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;
-
(4) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company;
-
(5) prevailing market conditions; and
-
(6) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).
