a member who is entitled to cast 2 or more votes may appoint 2 proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If the member appoints 2 proxies and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the member’s votes, then in accordance with section 249X(3) of the Corporations Act, each proxy may exercise one-half of the votes.

New sections 250BB and 250BC of the Corporations Act came into effect on 1 August 2011 and apply to voting by proxy on or after that date.

  • if the proxy has 2 or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on the resolution – the proxy must not vote on a show of hands; and

  • if the proxy is the chair of the meeting at which the resolution is voted on – the proxy must vote on a poll, and must vote that way (i.e. as directed); and

  • if the proxy is not the chair – the proxy need not vote on the poll, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed).

Transfer of non-chair proxy to chair in certain circumstances

Section 250BC of the Corporations Act provides that, if:

  • an appointment of a proxy specifies the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution at a meeting of the Company's members; and

  • the appointed proxy is not the chair of the meeting; and

  • at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded on the resolution; and

  • either of the following applies:

  • the proxy is not recorded as attending the meeting;

  • the proxy does not vote on the resolution,

the chair of the meeting is taken, before voting on the resolution closes, to have been appointed as the proxy for the purposes of voting on the resolution at the meeting.

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

Dear Shareholder

I have the pleasure of presenting an exciting opportunity which promises the potential of significant future growth for View Resources Limited (the Company or View ) (to be renamed “Celsius Coal Limited”).

As announced in March this year, View successfully expanded its activities from that of a nickel explorer with interests in Western Australia, to include coal exploration and development through the acquisition of a 90% interest in two prospective coal projects based in southern Kyrgyzstan (being the Sary-Mogol and Bel-Alma Licences).

Further to its recent focus in coal exploration, and as announced on 18 June 2012, View has negotiated an agreement to acquire an 80% interest in three additional prospective coking and thermal coal assets located in the Uzgen coal basin in Kyrgyzstan (being the Tuyuk-Kargasha, Kokkia and Min-Teke licences) (together the Tenements ) ( Project ), via the acquisition of 80% of the shares in a Hong Kong based company, Kokkia Coal Limited ( Acquisition ).

The Tenements cover a total land area of 9,763Ha (97.63km[2)] and are located within 100km of existing railway and in close proximity to the proposed Trans-Asia Railway, which is planned to link China, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan. All of the licence areas are underlain by Jurassic sediments, the principal host of coal mineralisation in Kyrgyzstan. The Company has derived a global Exploration Target for the Project of between 500 and 700 million tonnes of coal based on historical exploration (including drilling).[1] Full details of the Project are set out in Section 1.5 of this Notice.

Please note that there has been insufficient work done on the Project to define a resource to a JORC standard as historical reporting was previously given under the Russian classification system. The first priority of the Company will be to undertake a comprehensive exploration program on the Project within the coming weeks to define a JORC compliant resource.

The Acquisition is subject to the satisfaction of a number of conditions precedent, including Shareholder approval which is being sought at the General Meeting which is the subject of this Notice of General Meeting ( Notice ). I ask that you read the Notice and attached Explanatory Statement carefully, including the associated risks, advantages and disadvantages of the transaction.

The size of the proposed Acquisition and resultant change in the scale of the Company’s main undertaking represent a significant change in the Company’s activities.

Your Board believes that not only will the Project provide the potential to generate significant organic growth for the Company, it will also compliment the Company’s already existing Kyrgyzstan assets and strengthen it prominence in the region.

Yours sincerely

Peter O’Malley Non-Executive Chairman

1 Note, the potential quantity is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource.

EXPLANATORY STATEMEN T

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions which are the subject of the business of the Meeting.

1. OVERVIEW OF CHANGE OF SCALE OF ACTIVITIES

1.1 General

View Resources Limited ( View or the Company ) is a public company listed on the official list of the ASX (ASX code: VRE) and is predominantly concerned with:

  • (a) the acquisition, exploration, evaluation and exploitation of nickel deposits and the exploration of prospective nickel tenements in Western Australia;

  • (b) the acquisition, exploration, evaluation and exploitation of coal deposits and the exploration of prospective coal tenements in Kyrgyzstan; and

  • (c) the pursuit of other resource projects by way of acquisition or investment, not only in Australia and Kyrgyzstan, but elsewhere in the world, with the hope of subsequently developing mining operations on those projects.

The Company has had a significant operating history and has been listed on the ASX for a number of years. From the beginning of 2008, the Company underwent a period of external administration until it was eventually recapitalised in February of 2011 (with reinstatement to trading occurring a short time thereafter).

The Company has been actively and continuously seeking to identify and evaluate potential new mineral projects and opportunities in Australia and overseas suitable for acquisition and development by the Company.

1.2 WA Interests

The Company (through View Nickel Pty Ltd) owns a 30% interest in the Carnilya Hill joint venture ( Carnilya Hill JV ) located in Western Australia with Mincor Resources NL ( Mincor ). The tenements covered by the Carnilya Hill JV include tenements M26/47, M26/48, M26/49 and M26/453 and are predominantly prospective for nickel. The Carnilya Hill JV has been in production for a number of years with Mincor acting as operator.

As announced in April this year, mining has now ceased at Carnilya Hill and both parties are in the process of winding down their operations. Despite this, it intended that exploration will still continue under the Carnilya Hill JV, with Mincor remaining as operator.

In addition, the Company has recently been granted tenement E39/1641 and has further applied for tenement E39/1684, both of which are located in the Eastern Goldfields region of Western Australia and are prospective for nickel mineralisation.

The Company intends to continue to explore its nickel assets in accordance with its prior stated objectives to the ASX.

13

1.3 Kyrgyzstan Interests

View recently expanded its interests through the acquisition of 100% of Oshpur Limited ( Oshpur ), a company which holds a 90% interest in two prospective coal projects, Sary-Mogol and Bel-Alma, located in southern Kyrgyzstan.

The Sary-Mogol project has a development/production licence that is valid until 28 July 2016. The production licence at the Sary-Mogol project covers the area of previous mining activity and is an area of 8 hectares in size. The previous owners of the project were producing and selling thermal coal from an open cut mine.

The Bel-Alma project has an exploration licence and works agreement which are both valid until 26 July 2013. The Bel-Alma project is potentially a large tonnage, high quality thermal coal project. The total licence area is 278 hectares.

Although the Company was not required to re-comply with Chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules in relation to acquiring Oshpur, it was an ASX condition to the transaction that the Company release a full form prospectus as part of its capital raising. Completion of the acquisition occurred on 12 March 2012 and the capital raising ($1,500,000) on 28 March 2012.

Please refer to the Company’s March 2012 Quarterly Report for a detailed summary of the status of its current interests in both WA and Kyrgyzstan.

The Company has continued to evaluate a number of opportunities to acquire coal projects both in Kyrgyzstan and surrounding areas, as identified in both its recent prospectus and in subsequent announcements to date.

1.4

Background to Change of Scale of Activities

As announced on 18 June 2012, the Company has entered into a conditional agreement ( Farm-in Agreement ) to acquire up to 80% of the issued share capital of Kokkia Coal Limited ( Kokkia ), a company incorporated and domiciled in Hong Kong, which in turn holds a 100% interest in three prospective coal tenements located in the Uzgen Coal basin in Kyrgyzstan (being, TuyukKargasha, Kokkia and Min-Teke) (collectively the Tenements ) ( Project ).

The interest is held via Kokkia’s 100% ownership of two Kyrgyzstan entities, PanjSher Ank Ltd ( PSA ) and Baidamar Ltd ( Baidamar ), which together hold the Tenements.

The Company believes the Acquisition of the Tenements will compliment the Company’s existing Kyrgyzstan assets and strengthen the Company’s prominence in the region. As a result, the transaction will constitute a change in the scale of the Company’s activities under ASX Listing Rule 11.

ASX has advised the Company that completion of the transaction will require shareholder approval in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2, but the Company will not be required to re-comply with the listing requirements in Chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules.

Accordingly, Resolution 1 seeks approval from Shareholders for a change in the scale of the activities of the Company for the acquisition of three additional coal assets located in Kyrgyzstan.

Information considered material to Shareholders’ decision on whether to pass Resolution 1 is set out in the Explanatory Statement, and Shareholders are advised to read this information carefully.

The Board of View considers the proposed acquisition to be an important step in achieving its key objectives:

  • (a) to identify and acquire coal projects that have the potential to host internationally significant deposits with exposure to both metallurgical and thermal coal;

  • (b) rapidly transition projects through exploration into development, defining resources that can underpin medium to large scale modern production; and

  • (c) establish and maintain strong relationships with the Kyrgyzstan government, community, industry and other stakeholders, as well as with government and industry in neighbouring countries, to facilitate View becoming a major supplier of coal to central Asian countries and north/western China.

1.5 The Project

Kokkia controls 100% of three adjacent coal assets (Tuyuk-Kargasha, Kokkia and Min-Teke) located in the northwestern portion of the Uzgen coal basin in Kyrgyzstan (see Figure 1). Almost all of the licence areas are underlain by Jurassic sediments, the principal host of coal mineralisation in Kyrgyzstan (refer to Figure 2). The coal bearing formation (the Tuyuk formation) occurs near the base of the Jurassic sedimentary sequence and outcrops in the north of the Project area. The Jurassic sequence dips to the southwest at between 5 and 30 degrees (based on outcrop mapping compiled by Kokkia), with post-depositional folding creating gentle undulations in the layers (refer to Figure 3).

Key Highlights include:

  • All three tenements are adjacent; the Tuyuk-Kargasha and Kokkia tenements are contiguous.

15

  • Outcropping coal can be found across all licenses, along with several small scale adits and open pits.

  • The coal bearing formation is up to 250m thick.

  • The formation contains around 50 layers of coal with individual layers up to 8.7m thick. These layers have been grouped into 4 main groups/seams.

  • Interbedded waste layers are on the order of 0.1-0.3m thick.

  • Four prospects (the Prospects ) have been delineated within the Tenements – Kargasha, Tuyuk, Kokkia and Min-Teke (Figure 2).

Insufficient work has been undertaken on the Prospects to define a JORC compliant resource for any of them. However, the first priority of the Company will be to undertake an exploration program including geological mapping and core drilling on the Project which, if successful, may result in the definition of a JORC compliant resource for one or more of the Prospects contained within the Tenements.

The Company anticipates that it will be able to complete its first phase drilling programme on the Tenements during July to September 2012. This drilling programme will also provide important detail on the quality of the coal present at the Project and validate the extensive drilling results from Soviet era exploration programmes.

The Company has derived a global Exploration Target for the Project of between 500 and 700 million tonnes of coal.[ 2] This Exploration Target is based on Exploration Targets for the Prospects as shown in Table 1 and detailed in Section 1.9. The Exploration Target is based on the results of historical exploration (including drilling) carried out between 1947 and 1953 which is reported in Kashirin, Ibraimov and Karabalaev (1975)[3] and led to the estimation of nonJORC compliant coal resources within the Project.

While non-JORC compliant resources have been previously estimated at the Prospects it should be noted that there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource which complies with the JORC code, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource. The potential quantity of coal presented in this Exploration Target is conceptual in nature.

Tuyuk-Kargasha

The Tuyuk-Kargasha tenement covers 8,000 hectares. The main coal layers are grouped into four groups, but the thickness of the individual coal layers increases from the southern part of the Prospects to the north part of the Prospects. The Tuyuk tenement has 9 main coal seams for a total combined thickness of 8.3m and the Kargasha tenement has 14 main seams for a total combined thickness of 15.3m, while individual seams are up to 8.7m thick in places (based on historical drilling intersections and adit mapping).

Drilling on the Tuyuk-Kargasha tenements was completed in Soviet era period during 1947-1953. A total of 60 cored drillholes for 28,920m were drilled in addition to approximately 15,000 metres of trenching and adits. Based on this exploration, a non-JORC compliant coal resource was estimated on the tenement. The Company intends to access the historical work to both assist in the planning of its drilling programmes but also to incorporate the data (if validated) in the estimation of a JORC Code compliant resource (should exploration be successful).

The Company will also carry out drilling to both validate and confirm the historical drilling intersections as well as to test for extensions to the coal layers outside the area previously drilled. A substantial amount of the Tuyuk-Kargasha tenement has not been drilled, even though the entire tenement is underlain by Jurassic sediments.

Kashirin, Ibraimov and Karabalaev (1975) state that the coal contained in the Tuyuk and Kargasha Prospect is bituminous coking coal with typical coal quality characteristics as follows (based on drilling and adit sampling):

  • Ash: 3 to 9%;

  • Water: 0.9 to 5.6%;

  • Sulphur: 0.4 to 0.9%; and

  • Calorific value: 8200 to 8700 kCal/kg.

There is insufficient detail in the historical reports to comment on the sampling or analysis methodology and these characteristics may not be representative of the coal quality actually present at the Tuyuk-Kargasha Prospect. View intends to carry out a drilling programme across the Tuyuk-Kargasha Prospect and analyse the drilling samples at an independent accredited laboratory to enable the Company to determine a representative quality for the coal present in this prospect.

Kokkia

The Kokkia tenement covers an area of 1,576 hectares and is reportedly suitable, in part, for open cut mining operations, with outcropping coal found throughout the tenement area. From surface mapping and exposures in adits, the Kokkia Prospect has 11 main coal seams for a total combined thickness of 11.2m (Kashirin, Ibraimov, and Karabalaev, 1975).

Extensive exploration was carried out on the tenement during Soviet era in the 1950’s, with over 800 meters of trenching and 200 meters of adits completed. Coal seams start 1m from the surface, with a gentle slope to the southwest.

Kashirin, Ibraimov and Karabalaev (1975) state that the Kokkia Prospect contains bituminous coal with typical coal quality characteristics (based on reported surface and adit sampling) as follows:

18

  • Sulfur <0.94%;

  • Ash 4.5-13.8%;

  • Water 0.72-2.99%;

  • Carbon 85.3-87.5%; and

  • Calorific value 8350-8500 kcal/kg.

There is insufficient detail in the historical reports to comment on the sampling or analysis methodology and these characteristics may not be representative of the coal quality actually present at the Kokkia Prospect. View intends to carry out a drilling programme across the Kokkia Prospect and analyse the drilling samples at an independent, accredited laboratory to enable the Company to determine a representative quality for the coal present at this prospect.

Min-Teke

The Min-Teke tenement covers an area of 187 hectares and is located 35 km south-west of the town of Kazarman. The tenement (and the northern part of the Project) is accessed via a sealed road which leads to the Kazarman Gold Mine. Extensive surface exploration including trenching and adits have been performed to 20m depth, and several small scale open pit mining operations have occurred on the tenement.

Kashirin, Ibraimov and Karabalaev (1975) state that the Min Teke Prospect contains bituminous coal with typical coal quality characteristics (based on reported surface and adit sampling) as follows:

 Ash – 19.20%  Water - 6.77%  Sulfur - 0.55%

  • Calorific value – 6230 to 7680 kcal/kg.

There is insufficient detail in the historical reports to comment on the sampling or analysis methodology and these characteristics may not be representative of the coal quality actually present at the Min-Teke Prospect. View intends to carry out a drilling programme across the Prospect and analyse drilling samples at an independent, accredited laboratory to enable the Company to determine a representative quality for the coal present at this prospect.

At Min-Teke coal layers are assigned to 9 groups and outcrop on both sides of a small central ridge. The geomorphology is similar to a mesa with more resistant conglomerates of the Chaartash Formation forming the “spine” of the ridge and overlying the coal bearing Tuyuk Formation. Both sedimentary sequences are essentially flat lying.

1.6 About Kyrgyzstan

Kyrgyzstan is a stable democratic country in Central Asia, historically known for its natural resources and ideally placed to supply its closest neighbour, China with mineral commodities such as thermal and coking coal.

During the time of the Soviet era, both Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan were designated as the suppliers of raw materials to the rest of the republics due to the wealth of their natural resources. The coal industry rapidly developed in the early 1900s, and by 1913 Kyrgyzstan provided coal to the whole Central Asian CIS region.

Kyrgyzstan has a population of 5.5M, with an average per capita income of $836 (2009). There are other successful explorers and miners operating in Kyrgyzstan, including ASX listed, Manas Resources Limited and Kentor Gold Limited and TSX listed Centerra Gold (the owner of the world class Kumtor mine).

The company profit tax in Kyrgyzstan is 10% and the total royalty rate for coal producers is 4.3%.

20

1.7 Infrastructure

==> picture [455 x 310] intentionally omitted <==

The Tenements are situated approximately 100km from the Chinese border by road. South-east of the border is the major Chinese city Kashgar, the main regional centre which has been designated as a new economic development zone.

Kashgar is anticipated to be a hub for steel mills, Shandong Iron and Steel Group Co Ltd is currently in the process of constructing a steel mill, which is anticipated to be completed by end 2012.

Another potential major customer base is Urumqi, which is the capital city of Xinjiang province, also a considerable centre for steel production. View Resources and Kokkia Coal Limited projects are approximately 1000km closer to Urumqi than the nearest seaborne supply of thermal and coking coal.

Significantly, China and Kyrgyzstan have in principle agreed to construction of the Trans-Asia Railway, which is planned to link China, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan – the railway is estimated to be completed within the next three years. The railway will ultimately connect with the Nanjing line at Kashgar and then connect to the rest of China. Once constructed, the Tenements could be within 6km of this railway.

Importantly, the Ambassador of Iran to Kyrgyzstan recently announced that Iran is ready to fund implementation of the construction of China-KyrgyzstanUzbekistan railway on the territory of Kyrgyzstan.

Economically and logically, the shortest way to the world ocean is through the territory of Iran. Should the China-Kyrgyzstan railway project proceed with participation by Iran, it may open up the sea bound coal market for View.

1.8 Transaction Details

The Company will acquire an 80% interest in Kokkia, which in turn holds a 100% interest in the Project ( Acquisition ). This interest is held via Kokkia’s 100% ownership of two Kyrgyzstan entities, Panj-Sher Ank Ltd ( PSA ) and Baidamar Ltd ( Baidamar ), which together hold the Tenements.

Completion of the Acquisition will be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by View) of a number of conditions precedent, including:

  • (a) shareholder approval for the Acquisition (being the subject of Resolution 1 of this Notice);

  • (b) confirmation from ASX that the terms of the Performance Shares (defined below) are appropriate and equitable for the purposes the ASX Listing Rules;

  • (c) the receipt of shareholder approval for the issue of the Shares and Performance Shares (being the subject of Resolutions 4 and 5 of this Notice);

  • (d) the Company completing and being satisfied with due diligence investigations on Kokkia, PSA, Baidamar and the Project, to the absolute discretion of View; and

  • (e) as at the date of the Meeting:

  • (i) the licences owned by Kokkia or its subsidiaries being in good standing and there being no threat of forfeiture or other material claim against those licences; and

  • (ii) a licence agreement having been issued in relation to License No. 2593 CР for exploration of Kokiinskaya field (coal) (on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company); and

  • (iii) no other material adverse event occurring in relation to Kokkia, Baidamar, PSA or the Licences,

(together, the Conditions Precedent ).

Upon satisfaction of the Conditions Precedent, View will acquire 80% of the issued share capital of Kokkia ( Sale Interest ) in return for the pro-rata issue to the shareholders of Kokkia ( Vendors ), 500,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares in View ( Consideration Shares ) and the following performance shares:

  • (a) 200,000,000 Class A Performance Shares;

  • (b) 200,000,000 Class B Performance Shares;

  • (c) 200,000,000 Class C Performance Shares;

  • (d) 150,000,000 Class D Performance Shares; and

  • (e) 150,000,000 Class E Performance Shares,

(together the Performance Shares ).

The full terms of the Performance Shares is set out in Schedule 6.

22

In addition, View is required to assume Kokkia’s liability to pay an outstanding amount of US$2.5m in relation to the acquisition of Baidamar (the owner of the Tuyuk-Kargasha Tenement) ( Baidamar Liability ). View has since advanced $2.5m of the Loan to enable Kokkia to pay the Baidamar Liability. The Loan will be forgiven on completion of the Acquisition.

Stage 2 Commitment

After acquiring the Sale Interest (and as part consideration of the acquisition of the Sale Interest), View will be required to either sole fund a 30,000 metre drilling program on the Project or an equivalent dollar spend (being a minimum of $15m) on the Project (with a minimum of $5,000,000 spent within two years following the commencement of the Stage 2 Period) within three years of the satisfaction of the last of the Conditions Precedent ( Stage 2 Period ) ( Stage 2 Commitment ). During the Stage 2 Period, View will be required to sole fund exploration and mining operations on the Project.

If the Put Option has not been exercised and View does not complete the Stage 2 Commitment (or notifies the Vendors that it does not intend to complete the Stage 2 Commitment), View will be required to transfer back to the Vendors that number of shares in Kokkia such that View’s interest in Kokkia will decrease to 30% (and the Vendors increasing their interest in Kokkia to 70%) ( Stage 2 Claw Back ). The parties will then contribute to all expenditure on the Project on a prorata basis or otherwise dilute in accordance with a standard industry formula.

Stage 3 Commitment

After View has completed the Stage 2 Commitment (and as part consideration for the acquisition of the Sale Interest), View will be required to either sole fund a further 30,000 metre drilling program on the Project or an equivalent dollar spend (being a minimum of $15m) on the Project (with a minimum of $5,000,000 spent within two years following the commencement of the Stage 3 Period) within four years and eleven months of the beginning of the Stage 2 Period ( Stage 3 Period ) ( Stage 3 Commitment ). During the Stage 3 Period, View will be required to sole fund exploration and mining operations on the Project.

If the Put Option has not been exercised and View does not complete the Stage 3 Commitment (or notifies the Vendors that it does not intend to complete the Stage 3 Commitment), View will be required to transfer back to the Vendors that number of shares in Kokkia such that View’s interest in Kokkia will decrease to 45% (and the Vendors increasing their interest in Kokkia to 55%) ( Stage 3 Claw Back ). The parties will then contribute to all expenditure on the Project on a prorata basis or otherwise dilute in accordance with a standard industry formula.

After View has satisfied the Stage 2 and Stage 3 Commitments, it will be required to free carry the remaining 20% shareholding in Kokkia held by the Vendors to the commencement of commercial production on the Project.

Put Option

At any time after acquiring the Sale Interest, the Vendors may exercise a put option requiring the Performance Shares to vest (i.e. satisfying the first requirement of the performance milestones of the Performance Shares and leaving only the second JORC-delineated requirement of the performance milestones to be satisfied) ( Put Option ). If the Vendors exercise the Put Option, the Stage 2 and 3 Claw Back provisions will no longer apply and View will be required to free carry the remaining 20% shareholding in Kokkia to the later of

23

satisfying the Stage 2 and Stage 3 Commitments and the commencement of commercial production on the Project.

Claw Back

If it is determined that shareholder approval is required in the event of a Stage 2 Claw Back or Stage 3 Claw Back, the Company will be required to prepare all the required meeting documents, including commissioning an independent expert’s report. However, In the event that shareholder approval for the Stage 2 or Stage 3 Claw Back is not obtained, the Company will instead be required to make a cash payment pro-rata to the Vendors which will be the equivalent of that claw back percentage of the total value on the assets of Kokkia (as determined by an independent expert).

By way of example, if the Company is required to transfer back a 50% interest in Kokkia to the Vendors and the IER values Kokkia’s assets at $100 million, the cash payment due from the Company to the Vendors will be $50 million.

Once the cash payment has been made, the Put Option will be treated as having been exercised by the Vendors.

Loan

Before completion of the Acquisition occurs, the Company will also make a loan available to Kokkia of up to US$3,500,000 to be applied towards a budget of expenditure on the Tenements and satisfaction of the Baidamar Liability. As mentioned above, View has already advanced $2.5m of the Loan to enable Kokkia to pay the Baidamar Liability. Should settlement not occur, Kokkia will be required to repay the Loan to View with interest.

1.9 Exploration Target

The Company has derived an Exploration Target for the Project of between 500 and 700 million tonnes of coal.[4] This Exploration Target is based on Exploration Targets for the Prospects as shown in Table 1.

24

Total

501 - 700

The Exploration Target is based on the results of historical exploration carried out between 1947 and 1953 which is summarised in Kashirin, Ibraimov and Karabalaev (1975) and led to the estimation of non-JORC compliant coal resources for each of the Prospects. These resource estimations utilised the Soviet classification system (A, B, C, P) which have no direct analogy to JORC Code classifications and hence are not presented here. While these non-JORC resources have been previously estimated at the project it should be noted that there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource which complies with the JORC code, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource. The potential quantity of coal presented in these Exploration Targets is conceptual in nature.

The Exploration Target for the Kargasha and Tuyuk Prospects is based on coal intersections from 60 cored drillholes drilled during 1947 and 1953. The Competent Person considers that the drilling spacing is not adequate to result in the definition of JORC Code compliant resources, however the drilling has delineated an area where coal is present as well as the thickness. The Exploration Target is estimated based on the “sectional method” which is not considered an appropriate methodology for the estimation of JORC code compliant resources and therefore the quantity presented as an Exploration Target may differ substantially from any Mineral Resource calculated subsequently, assuming that exploration is successful and allows the estimation of a Mineral Resource. At the Kargasha and Tuyuk Prospects drilling will be carried out to both validate and confirm the historical drilling intersections as well as to test for extensions of the coal layers outside the area previously drilled.

At the Kokkia Prospect, the Exploration Target is based on surface mapping and exposures of coal layers in trenching and adits, as well as the interpreted subsurface geology based on the recorded attitude of the coal layers. While drilling will be carried out to test this interpretation it is important to note that the quantity presented as an Exploration Target is conceptual in nature and may differ substantially from any Mineral Resource calculated subsequently, assuming that exploration is successful and allows the estimation of a Mineral Resource.

At the Min-Teke Prospect, the Exploration Target is based on surface mapping and exposures of coal layers in trenching and adits, as well as the interpreted geology based on the recorded attitude of the coal layers. Since the Min-Teke coal appears on both flanks of a ridge there is a lower proportion of the Exploration Target based solely on interpretation/extrapolation, nevertheless it must be emphasised that the quantity presented as an Exploration Target is conceptual in nature and needs to be tested by drilling. Any Mineral Resource calculated based on drilling may differ substantially from the Exploration Target presented here, assuming that exploration is successful and allows the estimation of a Mineral Resource.

1.10 Capital Raising

The Company intends to undertake a capital raising in two tranches in order to raise up to $4,000,000 through the issue of 200,000,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.02 per Share to sophisticated and professional investor clients of CPS Securities ( Capital Raising ).

1.13 Advantages of the Acquisition

The Directors are of the view that the following non-exhaustive list of advantages may be relevant to a Shareholder’s decision on how to vote on Resolutions 1 to 5:

  • (a) the Acquisition represents a significant investment opportunity for the Company to strengthen its interests in coal exploration and development in an upcoming and highly prospective region of the world;

  • (b) the Project is within 100km of existing railway and in close proximity to the proposed Trans-Asia Railway (which is planned to link China, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan);

  • (c) the Kyrgyzstan government is committed to providing a competitive investment climate and adequate protection of the rights and privileges of mining investors. It promotes rational exploration, development and utilisation of mineral resources guided by a commitment to responsible mineral development;

  • (d) the potential increase in the market capitalisation of the Company may lead to increased coverage from capital market analysts, improved access to equity capital market opportunities and increased liquidity in its share trading;

  • (e) the Acquisition will reduce risk in the Company’s operating profile through increased geographic diversity; and

  • (f) the Acquisition represents a significant opportunity for the Company to increase the scale of its activities which could increase the number and size of the investor pool that may invest in the Company’s Shares.

1.14 Disadvantages of the Acquisition

The Directors are of the view that the following non-exhaustive list of disadvantages may be relevant to a Shareholder’s decision on how to vote on Resolutions 1 to 5:

  • (a) the Company will be changing the nature of its activities to include additional coal exploration activities in Kyrgyzstan, which may not be consistent with the objectives of all Shareholders;

  • (b) there are many risk factors associated with the change in nature of the Company’s activities, including sovereign risk, dilution risk, contractual and counterparty risk and other regulatory approvals;

  • (c) a significant future outlay of funds will be required which will increase funding pressure on the Company in order to continue exploration of the Project and its existing Kyrgyzstan and West Australian assets;

  • (d) current Shareholders will have their interests in the Company diluted by the Capital Raising and any further equity funding undertaken by the Company; and

  • (e) exploration activities on the Project may not identify an economically viable coal resource.

27

1.15 Risk Factors

Shareholders should be aware that if the proposed Acquisition is approved, the Company will be changing the scale of its activities. Based on the information available, a non-exhaustive list of risk factors are as follows:

Specific Risks

(a) ‘Claw Back’ Provisions associated with the Farm-in Agreement

As noted at Section 1.8, should View fail to meet the Stage 2 Commitment (and provided the Put Option has not been exercised), View’s interest in Kokkia will decrease to 30% (and the Vendors increasing their interest in Kokkia to 70%). Furthermore, if View does not satisfy the Stage 3 Commitment (and provided the Put Option has not been exercised), View’s interest will decrease to 45% (and the Vendors increasing their interest in Kokkia to 55%). Upon either of these two events occurring, both parties will be required to contribute to exploration and mining operations pro-rata to their existing holdings (otherwise standard dilution provisions will apply).

(b) Dilution Risk

As part of the consideration for the Acquisition, and subject to the passing of Resolutions 4 and 5, the Company proposes to issue 500,000,000 Shares and 900,000,000 Performances to the Vendors (or their nominees). Each Performance Share will, if certain milestones are achieved, convert into one (1) Share. This could potentially result in a further 1,400,000,000 Shares being issued by the Company.

Furthermore, the Company proposes to issue CPS Securities, 15,000,000 Shares and 27,000,000 Performance Shares for its corporate advisory and technical services to the Company.

This issue of equity to both the Vendors and CPS Securities together with the total Shares offered pursuant to the Capital Raising has the potential to significantly dilute the interests of Shareholders.

Please note however that each class of Performance Share is subject to an expiry period in which a performance milestone must be achieved. Should a milestone not be achieved within the stated period, each class of Performance Shares held by a holder will all consolidate into one single share.

(c) Counterparty and Contractual Risk

Pursuant to the Farm-in Agreement, the Company has agreed to acquire an 80% interest in Kokkia Coal Limited (and thereby an 80% interest in the Project), subject to the fulfilment of certain conditions precedent.

The ability of the Company to achieve its stated objectives will depend on the performance by Kokkia of its obligations under the Farm-in Agreement. If Kokkia defaults in the performance of its obligations, it may be necessary for the Company to approach a court to seek a legal remedy.

28

Legal action instituted in Australia or overseas can be costly. There can be no guarantee that a legal remedy will ultimately be granted on the appropriate terms.

(d) Risks Associated with Operating in Kyrgyzstan

The Project is located in the Republic of Kyrgyzstan. The Company will be subject to the risks associated with operating in Kyrgyzstan. Such risks can include economic, social or political instability or change, hyperinflation, currency non-convertibility or instability and changes of law affecting foreign ownership, government participation, taxation, working conditions, rates of exchange, exchange control, exploration licensing, export duties, repatriation of income or return of capital, environmental protection, mine safety, labour relations as well as government control over mineral properties or government regulations that require the employment of local residents or contractors or require other benefits to be provided to local residents.

Changes to Kyrgyzstan’s mining or investment policies and legislation or a shift in political attitude may adversely affect the Company’s operations and profitability. The Company might also be required by local authorities to invest in social projects for the benefit of the local community. Additional social expenditures in the future may have a negative impact on the Company’s profitability.

(e) Kyrgyzstan’s Legal Environment

Kyrgyzstan’s legal systems are less developed than more established countries and this could result in the following risks:

  • (i) political difficulties in obtaining effective legal redress in the courts whether in respect of a breach of law or regulation or in an ownership dispute;

  • (ii) a higher degree of discretion held by various government officials or agencies;

  • (iii) the lack of political or administrative guidance on implementing applicable rules and regulations, particularly in relation to taxation and property rights;

  • (iv) inconsistencies or conflicts between and within various laws, regulations, decrees, orders and resolutions; or

  • (v) relative inexperience of the judiciary and court in matters affecting the Company.

The commitment to local business people, government officials and the judicial system to abide by legal requirements and negotiated agreements may be more uncertain, creating particular concerns with respect to licences and agreements for business. These may be susceptible to revision or cancellation and legal redress may be uncertain or delayed. There can be no assurance that the Farm-in Agreement (and any other legal arrangements) will not be adversely affected by the actions of the government authorities or others. As such, the effectiveness and enforcement of such arrangements cannot be assured.

29

(f) No JORC compliant resource

As stated elsewhere in this Notice, there is no JORC compliant resource in relation to the Project and there is no guarantee that a JORC compliance resource in relation to the Project will be achieved in the future.

(g) Future capital requirements

Significant future funding may be required by the Company to develop the Project. There can be no assurance that such funding will be available on satisfactory terms or at all. Any additional equity financing will dilute shareholdings, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictions on financing and operating activities.

If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be required to reduce the scope of its operations and scale back its exploration program as the case may be, which may adversely affect the business and financial condition of the Company and its performance. This may also affect the Company’s ability to meet the Stage 2 and Stage 3 Commitments.

General Risks

The current and future operations of the Company, including exploration, appraisal and possible production activities may be affected by a range of factors.

(h) Exploration Success

There can be no assurance that exploration of the Project will result in the discovery of economic coal deposits. Even if an apparently viable deposit is identified, there is no guarantee it can be economically exploited.

(i) Foreign exchange risk

The Company will be exposed to the volatility and fluctuations of the exchange rate between the United States dollar, the Kyrgyz som and the Australian dollar.

Global currencies are affected by a number of factors that are beyond the control of the Company. These factors include economic conditions in the relevant country and elsewhere and the outlook for interest rates, inflation and other economic factors. These factors may have a positive or negative effect on the Company's exploration, project development and production plans and activities together with the ability to fund those plans and activities.

(j) Insurance risks

The Company intends to insure its operations in accordance with industry practice. However, in certain circumstances, the Company’s insurance may not be of a nature or level to provide adequate insurance cover. The occurrence of an event that is not covered or fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect of the business, financial condition and results of the Company.

30

Insurance against all risks associated with mining exploration and production is not always available and where available the costs can be prohibitive.

(k) Competition risk

The industry in which the Company will be involved is subject to domestic and global competition. While the Company will undertake all reasonable due diligence in its business decisions and operations, the Company will have no influence or control over the activities or actions of its competitors, whose activities or actions may, positively or negatively, affect the operating and financial performance of the Company’s projects and business.

(l) Market risk

Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s quoted securities regardless of the Company’s operating performance. Share market conditions are affected by many factors such as:

  • (i) general economic outlook;

  • (ii) interest rates and inflation rates;

  • (iii) currency fluctuations;

  • (iv) commodity price fluctuations;

  • (v) changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

  • (vi) the demand for, and supply of, capital; and

  • (vii) terrorism and other hostilities.

  • (m) Potential Acquisitions

As part of its business strategy, the Company intends to make acquisitions of, or significant investments in, complementary companies or projects. Any such future transactions would be accompanied by the risks commonly encountered in making such acquisitions.

  • (n) Reliance on Key Personnel

The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations and the strategic management of the Company depends substantially on its senior management and its key personnel. There can be no assurance given that there will be no detrimental impact on the Company if one or more of these employees cease their employment.

1.16 Plans for the Company if the Resolutions are not passed

If the Resolutions are not passed and the acquisition of the Project is not completed, the Company will continue to develop its existing projects and look for potential projects in order to identify a further significant project to take the Company forward.

31

1.17 Directors’ Recommendation

The Directors of the Company unanimously recommend the Acquisition and that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolutions 1 to 5. It is the view of the Directors that the Acquisition will give the Company’s Shareholders the opportunity to participate in a potentially significant exploration and development programme in respect of a highly prospective coal project.

1.18 Competent Person

The information in this Notice that relates to Exploration Results, Exploration Targets, Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves is based on information compiled by Mr Grant Thomas, who is a member of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (AusIMM). Mr Thomas is an employee of View Resources Limited and has sufficient experience that is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2004 Edition of the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves. Mr Thomas consents to the inclusion in this Notice of the matters based on this information in the form and context in which it appears.

1.19 Exploration Targets

It is common practice for a company to comment on and discuss its exploration in terms of target size and type. The information in this Notice relating to Exploration Targets should not be misunderstood or misconstrued as an estimate of Mineral Resources or Ore Reserves. Hence the terms Resource(s) and Reserve(s) have not been used in this context in this Notice. The potential quantity of coal presented in this Notice as Exploration Targets are conceptual in nature. It should be noted that there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource which complies with the JORC code, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource. View Resources intends to carry out an exploration programme to systematically test the Exploration Targets for each of the Prospects.

32

2. RESOLUTION 1 – CHANGE IN SCALE OF ACTIVITIES

2.1 General

Resolution 1 seeks approval from Shareholders for a change in the scale of the activities of the Company to expand its focus in Kyrgyzstan by acquiring an 80% interest in Kokkia Coal Limited, and accordingly, an 80% interest in the Project.

As outlined in Section 1.8 of this Explanatory Statement, the Company has entered into the Farm-in Agreement whereby the Company has the right to acquire an 80% interest in the Project.

The Farm-in Agreement is subject to the Conditions Precedent summarised in Section 1.8 above.

A detailed description of the Project is outlined in Section 1.5 above.

2.2 ASX Listing Rule 11.1

ASX Listing Rule 11.1 provides that where an entity proposes to make a significant change, either directly or indirectly, to the scale of its activities, it must provide full details to ASX as soon as practicable and comply with the following:

  • (a) provide to ASX information regarding the change and its effect on future potential earnings, and any information that ASX asks for;

  • (b) if ASX requires, obtain the approval of holders of its shares and any requirements of ASX in relation to the notice of meeting; and

  • (c) if ASX requires, meet the requirements of Chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules as if the company were applying for admission to the official list of ASX.

ASX has indicated to the Company that the change in the scale of the Company’s activities as a result of the Acquisition requires the Company in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2 to obtain Shareholder approval and to comply with any requirements of ASX in relation to the Notice of Meeting.

However, ASX has also indicated to the Company that the change in the scale of the Company’s activities as a result of the Acquisition does not require the Company to re-comply with the admission requirements set out in Chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 11.1.3.

3. RESOLUTION 2 – RATIFICATION OF TRANCHE 1 SHARES ISSUED UNDER CAPITAL RAISING

3.1 General

The Company is seeking to raise a total of $4,000,000 through the issue of 200,000,000 Shares at $0.02 per Share to sophisticated and professional investor clients of CPS Securities ( Capital Raising ). The Capital Raising will take place in two separate tranches.

Resolution 2 seeks to ratify the first tranche of the Capital Raising for the issue of 95,000,000 Shares at $0.02 each to sophisticated and professional investor clients of CPS Securities in order to raise $1,900,000. This issue was completed on or about 3 September 2012.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1) those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

By ratifying this issue, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

None of the subscribers for Shares under the Capital Raising were related parties of the Company for the purpose of Listing Rule 10.11.

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to the Ratification:

A summary of the terms of the Capital Raising is set out in Section 3.1 above. The purpose of Resolution 3 is to obtain approval for the issue of 105,000,000 Shares under the Capital Raising in order to raise $2,100,000 to sophisticated and professional investor clients of CPS Securities.

A summary of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 3.1 above.

The effect of Resolution 3 will be to allow the Directors to issue the Shares pursuant to tranche 2 of the Capital Raising during the period of 3 months after the Meeting (or a longer period, if allowed by ASX), without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.

35

5. RESOLUTION 4 – CREATION OF A NEW CLASS OF SECURITIES – PERFORMANCE SHARES

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval for the Company to be authorised to issue Performance Shares.

A company with a single class of shares on issue that proposes to issue new shares not having the same rights as its existing shares, is taken to vary the rights of existing shareholders unless the Constitution already provides for such an issue.

Section 246B of the Corporations Act, and clause 2.4 of the Constitution provides:

“If at any time the share capital of the Company is divided into different classes of Shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that class) may be varied, whether or not the Company is being wound up, with the consent in writing of the holders of three quarters of the issued Shares of that class, or if authorised by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the Shares of the class. Any variation of rights under this clause 2.4 shall be subject to Part 2F.2 of Chapter 2F of the Corporations Act. The provisions of this Constitution relating to general meetings shall apply so far as they are capable of application and with necessary alterations to every such separate meeting except that a quorum is constituted by two persons who together hold or represent by proxy not less than onethird of the issued Shares of the class.”

The Company proposes issuing a total of 900,000,000 Performance Shares, being 200,000,000 Class A Performance Shares, 200,000,000 Class B Performance Shares, 200,000,000 Class C Performance Shares, 150,000,000 Class D Performance Shares and 150,000,000 Class E Performance Shares ( Performance Shares ). Each Performance Share will, if certain milestones are achieved, convert into one (1) fully paid ordinary share. The full terms and conditions of the Performance Shares are set out in Schedule 6 of this Notice.

The Company also proposes to issue Performance Shares to CPS Securities (or its nominees) in accordance with Resolution 17.

The Company currently has only one class of shares on issue being fully paid ordinary shares ( Shares ). Accordingly, the Company seeks approval from Shareholders for the issue of the Performance Shares.

6. RESOLUTION 5 – ISSUE OF CONSIDERATION SHARES AND PERFORMANCE SHARES TO THE VENDORS

6.1 General

As noted in Section 1.8, as part consideration for the Acquisition, the Company has agreed to issue 500,000,000 Shares and 900,000,000 Performance Shares to the Vendors (or their nominees).

6.2 ASX Listing Rules

A summary of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 3.1 above.

The effect of Resolution 5 will be to allow the Directors to issue the Consideration Shares and Performance Shares to the Vendors during the period of 3 months

36

after the Meeting (or a longer period, if allowed by ASX), without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.

6.3

Technical Information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 5:

  • (f) the maximum number of Consideration Shares to be issued is 500,000,000 and the maximum number of Performance Shares to be issued is 900,000,000;

  • (g) the Consideration Shares and Performance Shares will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) and it is proposed that the Consideration Shares and Performance Shares will be allotted on one date (on or about the date of the Meeting);

  • (h) the Consideration Shares and Performance Shares will be issued for nil cash consideration as they are in part consideration for the Acquisition. Accordingly, no funds will be raised from their issue;

  • (i) the Consideration Shares issued will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares (and will rank equally with the Company’s existing Shares). On conversion of the Performance Shares, the Shares issued will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares (and will rank equally with the Company’s existing Shares); and

  • (j) the Consideration Shares and Performance Shares will be issued to the Vendors and/or their nominees, who are not related parties of the Company.

7. RESOLUTION 6 – CHANGE OF COMPANY NAME

Section 157(1)(a) of the Corporations Act provides that a company may change its name if the company passes a special resolution adopting a new name.

Resolution 6 seeks the approval of Shareholders for the Company to change its name to Celsius Coal Limited .

If Resolution 6 is passed the change of name will take effect when ASIC alters the details of the Company’s registration.

The proposed name has been reserved by the Company and if Resolution 6 is passed, the Company will lodge a copy of the special resolution with ASIC following the Meeting in order to effect the change.

8. RESOLUTION 7 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE – SHARES

8.1 General

On or about 29 February 2012, the Company lodged with ASIC a Prospectus ( Prospectus ) for the offer of 100,000,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.01 per Share in order to raise $1,000,000, with oversubscriptions of up to a further

37

50,000,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.01 per Share in order to raise a further $500,000 ( Offer ).

On or about 28 March 2012, the Company announced the successful raising of $1,500,000 pursuant to the Prospectus.

Resolution 7 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 to ratify the issue of 50,000,000 Shares issued by way of oversubscriptions under the Offer ( Ratification ).

A summary of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 6.2 above.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1) those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

By ratifying this issue, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

8.2 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.4

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to the Ratification:

  • (a) 50,000,000 Shares were allotted;

  • (b) the issue price was $0.01 per Share;

  • (c) the Shares issued were all fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares;

  • (d) the Shares were allotted and issued to clients and contacts of Cunningham Peterson Sharbanee Securities Pty Ltd. None of these subscribers were related parties of the Company; and

  • (e) the funds raised by this issue ($500,000) will be applied towards the development of the Company’s newly acquired Bel-Alma and Sary Mogol coal projects located in southern Kyrgyzstan and for working capital.

9. RESOLUTIONS 8 AND 9 – RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

39

10. RESOLUTION 10 – ADOPTION OF EMPLOYEE OPTION PLAN

To ensure that the Company continues to have appropriate mechanisms to continue to attract and retain the services of directors and employees of a high calibre, the Board has established an “Option Plan” for the Company ( Plan ).

This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval to adopt the Plan, sought under exception 9(b) of ASX Listing Rule 7.2 to allow the grant of options under the Plan ( Plan Options ), and the issue of Shares on exercise of the Plan Options, as an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

The grant of Plan Options will only fall within exception 9(b) of ASX Listing Rule 7.2 if the Plan Options are issued under an employee incentive option plan approved by Shareholders within three years before the date of issue.

If this Resolution is passed, the Company will have the ability to issue Plan Options to eligible participants under the Plan over a period of three years without impacting on the Company’s 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. Any issues of Plan Options to Directors or other related parties of the Company will require separate Shareholder approval.

The Directors and employees of the Company have been, and will continue to be, instrumental in the growth of the Company. The Directors consider that the Plan is an appropriate method to:

  • (a) reward Directors and employees for their past performance;

  • (b) provide long term incentives for participation in the Company’s future growth;

  • (c) motivate Directors and generate loyalty from senior employees; and

  • (d) assist to retain the services of valuable Directors and employees.

The Plan will be used as part of the remuneration planning for executive Directors and employees. The Corporate Governance Council Principles and Recommendations recommend that executive remuneration packages involve a balance between fixed and incentive pay reflecting short and long-term performance objectives appropriate to the company’ circumstances and goals. The Plan will also be used as part of the remuneration planning for non-executive Directors. Although this is not in accordance with the recommendations contained in the Corporate Governance Council Principles and Recommendations, the Company considers that it is appropriate for nonexecutive Directors to participate in the Plan given the size of the Company.

No Plan Options have yet been issued under the Plan.

The key terms of the Plan are summarised in Schedule 1. A full copy of the Plan is available for inspection at the Company’s registered office until the date of the Meeting.

11. RESOLUTION 11 – ADOPTION OF PERFORMANCE RIGHTS PLAN

11.1 General

Resolution 11 seeks Shareholder approval to establish and maintain a performance rights plan ( PRP ) to provide ongoing incentives to Directors, executives and employees of the Company.

40

The objective of the PRP is to provide the Company with a remuneration mechanism, through the issue of securities in the capital of the Company, to motivate and reward the performance of the Directors and employees in achieving specified performance milestones within a specified performance period. The Board will ensure that the performance milestones attached to the securities issued pursuant to the PRP are aligned with the successful growth of the Company’s business activities.

The Directors and employees of the Company have been, and will continue to be, instrumental in the growth of the Company. The Directors consider that the PRP is an appropriate method to:

  • (a) reward Directors and employees for their past performance;

  • (b) provide long term incentives for participation in the Company’s future growth;

  • (c) motivate Directors and generate loyalty from senior employees; and

  • (d) assist to retain the services of valuable Directors and employees.

The PRP will be used as part of the remuneration planning for executive and nonexecutive Directors and employees. The Corporate Governance Council Guidelines recommend that executive remuneration packages involve a balance between fixed and incentive pay reflecting short and long-term performance objectives appropriate to the company’ circumstances and goals. The Performance Rights will also be used as part of the remuneration planning for non-executive Directors. Although this is not in accordance with the recommendations contained in the Corporate Governance Council Guidelines, the Company considers that it is appropriate for non-executive Directors to be granted Performance Rights.

11.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1

A summary of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is set out above at Section 6.2.

One of the exceptions to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 9) which provides that ASX Listing Rule 7.1 does not apply to an issue under an employee incentive scheme if, within the 3 years before the date of issue, shareholders have approved the issue as an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

The effect of Resolution 11 will be to allow the directors to grant Performance Rights to employees of the Company pursuant to the PRP during the period of 3 years after the Meeting (or a longer period, if allowed by ASX), and to issue shares to those employees if they achieve the performance and vesting conditions of the Performance Rights, without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.

In the case of a Director, no Performance Rights may be issued to the Director without separate Shareholder approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.14.

11.3 Terms of the Plan

A summary of the terms of the PRP is provided in Schedule 2 to this explanatory memorandum. A copy of the PRP will be made available free of charge to any shareholder on request.

41

No Performance Rights have been issued under the PRP as at the date of this Notice.

11.4 Offer of Performance Rights to Mr Peter O’Malley

It is proposed that an offer of Performance Rights under the PRP will be made to Mr Peter O’Malley (Non-Executive Chairman) as described in Resolution 16, subject to Shareholder approval being obtained at the General Meeting. The proposed terms of the Performance Rights offered to Mr O’Malley are set out in Section 13.3.

It is envisaged that future offers under the PRP may be made on different terms to those that apply to the proposed offers of Performance Rights described in this Explanatory Statement.

11.5 Recommendation of Directors

The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 11.

12. RESOLUTIONS 12 TO 15 – ISSUE OF OPTIONS TO RELATED PARTIES

12.1 General

The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, to allot and issue a total of 130,000,000 Options, specifically:

  • (a) 50,000,000 Class A Options to Mr Peter O’Malley, who is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director of the Company;

  • (b) 25,000,000 Class A Options to Mr Grant Thomas, who is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director of the Company;

  • (c) 5,000,000 Class A Options to Mr Bill Oliver, who is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director of the Company; and

  • (d) 50,000,000 Class B Options to Kenosis Capital Partners, who is a related party of the Company by virtue of being an entity controlled by Mr Peter O’Malley, a Director of the Company,

(together, the Related Parties ).

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 grant of the Options constitutes the giving a financial benefit and as described above, Kenosis Capital Partners, Mr Peter O’Malley, Mr Grant Thomas, and Mr Bill Oliver are all related parties of the Company. In addition, ASX Listing Rule 10.11 also requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a related party, or a person whose

42

relationship with the entity or a related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained unless an exception in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 applies.

It is the view of the Directors that the exceptions set out in Sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply in the current circumstances. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought for the grant of the Options to the Related Parties.

12.2 Shareholder Approval (Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.11)

Pursuant to and in accordance with the requirements of Section 219 of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed grant of the Options:

  • (a) the Related Parties are:

  • (i) Kenosis Capital Partners, who is a related party of the Company by virtue of being an entity controlled by Mr Peter O’Malley, a Director of the Company;

  • (ii) Mr Peter O’Malley, who is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director of the Company;

  • (iii) Mr Bill Oliver, who is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director of the Company; and

  • (iv) Mr Grant Thomas, who is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director of the Company;

  • (b) the maximum number of Options (being the nature of the financial benefit being provided) to be granted to the Related Parties is:

  • (i) 50,000,000 Class A Options to Mr Peter O’Malley;

  • (ii) 50,000,000 Class B Options to Kenosis Capital Partners;

SCHEDULE 5 – VALUATION OF PERFORMANCE RIGHTS

The Performance Rights to be issued to the Related Parties pursuant to Resolution 16 have been valued by internal management .

Using the principles of option valuation models and based on the assumptions set out below, the Performance Rights were ascribed the following value:

Assumptions: Performance
Rights (a)
Performance
Rights (b)
Valuation date 15/08/12 15/08/12
Market price of Shares 0.022 cents 0.022 cents

Indicative value per Related Party Option 0.022 0.022
Total Value of Related Party Options $82,500 $82,500
Peter O’Malley $82,500 $82,500

The valuation above took into account the following matters:

• Performance Rights with market based vesting conditions can only be exercised following the satisfaction of these exercise conditions.

• The valuation of Performance Rights assumes that the exercise of a right does not affect the value of the underlying asset.

• The vesting conditions determine the number of Performance Rights to be issued; they do not have an affect on the value of each Performance Right. If the vesting conditions relate to the vesting of the Performance Rights, rather than the number to be issued, only then would it have to be considered in the valuation of the Performance Rights.

• Given that the Performance Rights are to be issued for no consideration, the value of the Performance Rights is reflected in the underlying Share price at the valuation date. Variable inputs used in traditional option valuation models such as implied share price volatility, the risk free interest rate and life of the right have no impact on the value of the Performance Rights so long as the underlying asset does not pay a dividend.

• The exercise price is the price at which the underlying ordinary Shares will be issued. No consideration is to be paid upon exercising the Performance Rights.

62

of shares, for which the costs to achieve are currently interdeterminable. These costs would form part of exploration
expenditure capitalised on the balance sheet and would reduce cash at bank accordingly. The value of the performance
shares issued at the time would form part of the exploration expenditure for the project and the resulting entry would
be recorded against issued capital.

the Unaudited Consolidated Actual.
Note 3: The minimum capital raising amount shown above is $2,000,000 but should more funds be raised then the cash
balance will increase and the issued capital will increase by the amount of the additional funds raised less any additional
capital raising costs.

Instructions for Completin g ‘Appointment of Proxy’ Form

  1. ( Appointing a Proxy ): A member entitled to attend and cast a vote at an General Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf at the meeting. If the member is entitled to cast 2 or more votes at the meeting, the member may appoint a second proxy to attend and vote on their behalf at the meeting. However, where both proxies attend the meeting, voting may only be exercised on a poll. The appointment of a second proxy must be done on a separate copy of the Proxy Form. A member who appoints 2 proxies may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If a member appoints 2 proxies and the appointments do not specify the proportion or number of the member’s votes each proxy is appointed to exercise, each proxy may exercise one-half of the votes. Any fractions of votes resulting from the application of these principles will be disregarded. A duly appointed proxy need not be a member of the Company.

  2. ( Direction to Vote ): A member may direct a proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite each item of business. Where a box is not marked the proxy may vote as they choose. Where more than one box is marked on an item the vote will be invalid on that item.

3. ( Signing Instructions ):

  • ( Individual ): Where the holding is in one name, the member must sign.

  • ( Joint Holding ): Where the holding is in more than one name, all of the members should sign.

  • ( Power of Attorney ): If you have not already provided the Power of Attorney with the registry, please attach a certified photocopy of the Power of Attorney to this form when you return it.

  • ( Companies ): Where the company has a sole director who is also the sole company secretary, that person must sign. Where the company (pursuant to Section 204A of the Corporations Act) does not have a company secretary, a sole director can also sign alone. Otherwise, a director jointly with either another director or a company secretary must sign. Please sign in the appropriate place to indicate the office held.

  • ( Attending the Meeting ): Completion of a Proxy Form will not prevent individual members from attending the General Meeting in person if they wish. Where a member completes and lodges a valid Proxy Form and attends the General Meeting in person, then the proxy’s authority to speak and vote for that member is suspended while the member is present at the General Meeting.

  • ( Return of Proxy Form ): To vote by proxy, please complete and sign the enclosed Proxy Form and return by:

  • (a) post to View Resources Ltd, Level 1, 12 Kings Park Road, West Perth WA 6872; or

  • (b) facsimile to the Company on facsimile number +61 8 9226 4300,

so that it is received not less than 48 hours prior to commencement of the Meeting. Proxy forms received later than this time will be invalid.
