  • c) shall be deemed to confer authority to demand or join in demanding a poll;

  • d) shall be in such form as the Directors determine and which complies with section 250A of the Corporations Act; and

Corporations

A corporation may elect to appoint a representative in accordance with the Corporations Act in which case the Company will require written proof of the representative’s appointment, which must be lodged with, or presented to, the Company before the commencement of the Meeting.

5. RESOLUTIONS 5 AND 6 – APPROVAL FOR THE ISSUE OF SHARES AND ANNEXURE A OPTIONS TO NATHAN MCMAHON AND CLIVE JONES ON CONVERSION OF CONVERTIBLE NOTES

5.1 Background

As announced to the ASX on 22 December 2015, the Company agreed to the issue one (1) Convertible Note to Director Nathan McMahon and one (1) Convertible Note to Director Clive Jones for an aggregate amount of $200,000.

A Convertible Note can be converted at any time up to 31 December 2016 but cannot be converted without Shareholder approval. Any conversion of a Convertible Note will be on the same terms and conditions as those relating to the December Placement as announced to the ASX on 22 December 2015. Each Convertible Note:

  • carries a face value of $100,000;

  • has a Zero % interest rate; and

  • is unsecured.

On any conversion of a Convertible Note, a maximum of 3,333,333 Shares will be issued (based on $0.03 per Share, being the same price at which Shares were issued under the December Placement). A free attaching Annexure A Option (exercisable at $0.04 with an expiry date of 5 January 2018) will also be issued upon the conversion of a Convertible Note on the basis of one (1) Annexure A Option for every two (2) Shares issued on conversion.

The maximum number of Shares and Annexure A Options that may be issued upon the conversion of a Convertible Note is therefore 3,333,333 and 1,666,667 respectively.

Resolutions 5 and 6 seek Shareholder approval for the issue of up to 3,333,333 Shares and 1,666,667 Annexure A Options to each of Mr McMahon and Mr Jones, on the conversion of the Convertible Note issued to them.

5.2 ASX Listing Rule 10.11

ASX Listing Rule 10.11 provides that, subject to certain exemptions (none of which are relevant here), a company must not issue securities to a related party without shareholder approval.

Resolutions 5 and 6 seek this approval as Mr McMahon and Mr Jones are related parties of the Company as they are Directors.

The maximum number of Shares and Annexure A Options which can be issued to Mr McMahon and/or his nominee, on conversion of the Convertible Note under Resolution 5 is 3,333,333 and 1,666,667 respectively.

The maximum number of Shares and Annexure A Options which can be issued to Mr Jones and/or his nominee, on conversion of the Convertible Note under Resolution 6 is 3,333,333 and 1,666,667 respectively.

  • c) The date by which the entity will issue the securities, which must not be more than 1 month after the date of the meeting

  • d) The issue price of the securities and a statement of the terms of issue

Each Convertible Note carries a face value of $100,000.

A Convertible Note may be converted into Shares plus a free attaching Annexure A Option (on a one (1) for two (2) basis) at a conversion price of $0.03.

In the event that the conversion of a Convertible Note into an issue of the Shares and Annexure A Options is not approved by Shareholders, Mr McMahon and Mr Jones will be entitled to be paid the face value of each outstanding Convertible Note.

e) Use (or intended use) of funds raised.

The funds from the Convertible Notes were used for ongoing exploration, evaluation of new projects and working capital.

5.3 ASX Listing Rule 7.1

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that prior approval of shareholders is required for an issue of equity securities if the equity securities will, when aggregated with the equity securities issued by a company during the previous 12 months, exceed 15% of the number of ordinary shares on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required (under Exception 14 to ASX Listing Rule 7.1) in order to issue the Shares and Annexure A Options on the conversion of any Convertible Note to Mr McMahon and Mr Jones and/or their nominee(s) as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11.

If Shareholders approve Resolutions 5 and 6, then the issue of Shares and Annexure A Options, on the conversion of any Convertible Note, to Mr McMahon and Mr Jones and/or their nominee(s) will not be included in the 15% calculation for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

5.4 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act regulates the provision of financial benefits to related parties by a public company. The issue of Shares and Annexure A Options, on the conversion of any Convertible Note, to Mr McMahon and Mr Jones under Resolutions 5 and 6 constitutes the provision of a financial benefit to related parties.

It is the view of the Directors that the issue of Shares and Annexure A Options on the conversion of any Convertible Note falls within the arm’s length exception under section 210

13

of the Corporations Act. In forming this view, the Directors consider the terms of the Convertible Note:

  • were negotiated at arm’s length;

  • carry a zero % coupon rate;

  • are the same as those for the December Placement participants; and

  • are reasonable in the circumstances at the time if the Company were dealing at arm’s length.

Accordingly, the Directors have determined not to seek Shareholder approval under section 208 of the Corporations Act for the issue of Shares and Annexure A Options on the conversion of any Convertible Note by Mr McMahon and Mr Jones.

Other Information

Mr McMahon and Mr Jones’ relevant interests (direct and indirect) in Securities as at the date of this Notice Of Meeting are set out below .

Name Shares **Options 1 ** **Convertible Note 2 **
Nathan McMahon 21,522,766 1,500,000 1
CliveJones 11,146,571 1,500,000 1

(1) Options exercisable at $0.18 on or before 26 November 2016

(2) Convertible Note with a face value of $100,000, a maturity date of 31 December 2016, zero % interest rate and convertible at $0.03 plus a free attaching Annexure A Option on the basis of one Annexure A Option for every two Shares issued on conversion. The issue of Shares and Annexure A Options on conversion of the Convertible Note is subject to Shareholder approval which is sought pursuant to Resolution 5 (Mr McMahon) and Resolution 6 (Mr Jones).

The latest available price of Shares quoted on the ASX prior to the date of this Notice of Meeting on 8 July 2016 was $0.08. The highest price for Shares trading on the ASX over the last 12 months was $0.097 and the lowest price in that period was $0.019.

In addition, the Directors believe that there are benefits to the Company in Directors holding securities in the Company as this helps to incentivise the performance of those Directors and, in doing so, further aligns the interests of those Directors with those of Shareholders.

5.5 Directors' recommendation

Mr McMahon declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 5 due to his personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution. The other Directors, who do not have an interest in the outcome of Resolution 5, recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5. The Board is not aware of any other information that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to allow them to make a decision whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass Resolution 5.

Mr Jones declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 6 due to his personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution. The other Directors, who do not have an interest in the outcome of Resolution 6, recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 6.
