EXPLANATORY STATEMENT TO SHAREHOLDERS

Introduction

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of Shareholders of the Company in connection with the business to be conducted at the Annual General Meeting of the Company to be held at the Celtic Club, 48 Ord Street, West Perth, Western Australia on Tuesday 26 May 2015 commencing at 10am (WST).

The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide Shareholders with all the information known to the Company which is material to a decision on how to vote on the Resolutions in the accompanying Notice of Meeting. The Explanatory Statement should be read in conjunction with the Notice of Meeting. Capitalised terms in this Explanatory Statement are defined in Schedule 1.

Important Notice

Shareholders should read this Explanatory Statement in full and if they have any questions, obtain professional advice before making any decisions in relation to the Resolutions to be put to Shareholders at the meeting.

1 Financial Report (no resolution required)

A printed hard copy of the Annual Financial Report which includes the Financial Report, Directors’ Report and Auditor’s Report for the year ended 31 December 2014, has been sent to all Shareholders who requested it. The Annual Report is available on the Company’s website at www.centaurus.com.au.

There is no requirement for Shareholders to approve those reports. However, the Chairman will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders to ask questions or make comments about those reports and the management of the Company. Shareholders will also be given an opportunity to ask the auditor or its representatives questions about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the Auditor’s Report.

2 Resolution 1 ‐ Adoption of Remuneration Report

Pursuant to the Corporations Act, the Company is required to put the Remuneration Report to the vote of Shareholders. The Annual Financial Report for the year ended 31 December 2014 contains a Remuneration Report which sets out the remuneration policy for the Company and reports the remuneration arrangements in place for the Directors and other Key Management Personnel. The provisions of the Corporations Act provide that the vote is only an advisory vote of Shareholders and does not bind the Directors or the Company. However, the Board will take the outcome of the vote into consideration when reviewing the remuneration practices and policies of the Company.

Pursuant to the Corporations Act, if a company’s Remuneration Report receives a “no” vote of 25 per cent or more at two consecutive Annual General Meetings, a resolution must then be put to shareholders at the second Annual General Meeting as to whether another meeting should be held at which all directors (other than the Managing Director) who were in office at the date of approval of the applicable Remuneration Report must stand for re‐election (“spill resolution”). If more than 50% of Shareholders vote in favour of the spill resolution the Company must convene an extraordinary general meeting within 90 days of the second Annual General Meeting. In summary, Shareholders will be entitled to vote in favour of holding a general meeting to re‐elect the Board if the Remuneration Report receives “2 strikes”. At the Company’s previous Annual General Meeting, the votes cast against the Remuneration Report were less than 25%.

The Chairman will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders to ask questions about, or make comments on the Remuneration Report.

Voting Restrictions

Key Management Personnel including Directors (excluding the Chairman in certain circumstances) and their Closely Related Parties may not cast any votes in respect of Resolution 1 that arise from any proxy that they hold unless the appointment gives a direction on how to vote or the proxy is given to the Chairman and expressly authorises the Chairman to exercise undirected proxies even if the Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the Key Management Personnel.

The Chairman will use any such proxies to vote in favour of the Resolution. Therefore, the Company encourages you to carefully read the proxy form and direct your proxy on how to vote on Resolution 1.

3 Resolution 2 ‐ Re‐election of Director – Mr Didier Murcia

In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 14.5 and Rule 51.1 of the Constitution, an election of Directors shall take place each year. According to ASX Listing Rule 14.4 and Rule 51.2 of the Constitution, at every Annual General Meeting, each Director who has retained office for more than three years since their appointment shall retire from office and is eligible for re‐ election at the Annual General Meeting. Under Rule 51.5 of the Constitution, if at any Annual General Meeting no Director is required to retire under the terms of Rule 51.2 of the Constitution, then the Director who has been longest in office since their last election shall retire from office, and if more than one have equal tenure then the Director to retire shall in default of agreement between them be determined by lot. These requirements for a Director to retire do not apply to a Managing Director.

Accordingly, Mr Murcia retires and being eligible for re‐election, offers himself for re‐election at the Meeting.

Mr Murcia has been an independent non‐executive director since 16 April 2009 and Chairman since 28 January 2010. He is the chair of the Remuneration Committee. Mr Murcia is a lawyer with over 25 years legal and corporate experience in the mining industry. He is currently Honorary Australian Consul for the United Republic of Tanzania and a director of Gryphon Minerals Limited, Cradle Resources Ltd, Alicanto Minerals Ltd and Strandline Resources Ltd. He is Chairman and founding director of Perth–based legal group Murcia Pestell Hillard. He is a past director of Gindalbie Metals Limited and Target Energy Limited.

The Board (other than Mr Murcia) supports and recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of the re‐election of Mr Murcia.

The Company wishes to ratify the issue of T1 Shares pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4, in order to allow the Company, subject to the approval of Resolution 8, to have the right to place up to a further 25% of its issued capital under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.

9 Resolution 8 ‐ Approval of 10% Placement Facility

9.1 Background

Listing Rule 7.1 permits an entity to issue 15% of its issued capital without shareholder approval in a 12 month period, subject to a number of exceptions. Listing Rule 7.1A permits eligible entities, which have obtained shareholder approval by special resolution at the company’s annual general meeting, to issue Equity Securities up to an additional 10% of its issued capital by placements over a 12 month period after the annual general meeting (Additional Placement Capacity).

Approval for the Additional Placement Capacity may only be obtained at the Company’s Annual General Meeting. The Company previously received Shareholder approval for Additional Placement Capacity at the Annual General Meeting held on 29 May 2014 and this approval will expire on 29 May 2015 (or earlier if Shareholders approve a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 or Listing Rule 11.2).

Accordingly, the Company seeks Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A under Resolution 8 to be able to issue Equity Securities under the Additional Placement Capacity. The exact number of Equity Securities to be issued is not fixed and will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (set out below).

9.2 Requirements of Listing Rule 7.1A

Eligible Entities

An eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. The Company is an eligible entity.

Shareholder Approval

Shareholders must approve the Additional Placement Capacity by special resolution at the Annual General Meeting which requires the approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative). A resolution under Listing Rule 7.1A cannot be put at any other Shareholder meeting.

Equity Securities

Equity Securities issued under the Additional Placement Capacity must be in the same class as an existing class of Equity Securities of the Company that are quoted on the ASX. As at the date of this Notice, the Company has two classes of Equity Securities quoted on the ASX being fully paid ordinary shares and New Options.

Calculating the Number of Equity Securities that may be Issued Under the Additional Placement Capacity

If Resolution 8 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 formula (A x D) – E, where:

A The number of fully paid shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;

plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the 12 months;

plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months with the approval of shareholders under
Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid shares under the Company’s 15%
placement capacity without shareholder approval;

less the number of fully paid shares cancelled in the 12 months.
D 10%
E The number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the
date of the issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of shareholders under Listing
Rules 7.1 or 7.4.

Interaction between Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A

The Additional Placement Capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A is in addition to the Company's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1. The Company has Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice. If this Resolution 8 is passed, the Company will be permitted to issue (as at the date of this Notice):

  • (a) Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1; and

  • (b) Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.

The actual number of Equity Securities that the Company will be permitted to issue under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated at the date of issue or agreement to issue the Equity Securities in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out above). The effect of Resolution 8 will be to allow the Company to issue securities under Listing Rule 7.1A without using the Company's placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

9.3 Information for Shareholders as Required by Listing Rule 7.3A

Minimum Price

The issue price of the new Equity Securities will be no lower than 75% of the VWAP for securities in the relevant quoted class calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • (a) the date on which the price of the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or

  • (b) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 Business Days of the date above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

Risk of Economic and Voting Dilution

If Resolution 8 is passed and the Company issues Equity Securities under the Additional Placement Facility, existing Shareholders' voting power in the Company will be diluted as shown in the table below.

There is the risk that:

  • (a) the market price for the Company's existing Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the date of issue of the new Equity Securities than on the date of the Meeting; and

  • (b) the new Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price of the Company's existing Equity Securities on the issue date or the new Equity Securities may be issued as part of the consideration for the acquisition of a new asset,

which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the new Equity Securities.

The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of ordinary securities for variable "A", assuming the issue of the maximum number of Shares under Resolutions 4 & 6, calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 as at the date of this Notice.

The table also shows:

  • (a) two examples where variable "A" has increased by 50% and 100%. Variable "A" is based on the number of ordinary securities the Company has on issue. The number of ordinary securities may increase as a result of issues of ordinary securities that do not require Shareholder approval (for example a pro rata entitlement issue) or future placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved by Shareholders in the future; and

  • (b) two examples of where the issue price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 50% as against the current market price.

This table has been prepared using the following assumptions:

  • The Company issues the maximum number of Shares available under the Additional Placement Capacity.

  • The issue of Equity Securities under the Additional Placement Capacity consists only of Shares.

  • No Options or Performance Rights (including any Options or Performance Rights issued under the Additional Placement Capacity) are exercised into Shares before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities.

  • 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%.

  • The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the Additional Placement Capacity, based on that Shareholder's holding at the date of the Meeting.

  • The table shows only the effect of issues of Shares under Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • The issue price is $0.014, being the latest closing price of the Shares on ASX on 13 April 2015.

  • The Company's ability to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A is in addition to its ability to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • Resolutons 4 & 6 are approved and the maximum number of Shares are issued.

Placement Period

The Company previously received Shareholder approval for Additional Placement Capacity at the Annual General Meeting held on 29 May 2014. This approval is valid as at the date of this Notice. The refreshed Shareholder approval sought at this Meeting under Listing Rule 7.1A will be valid from 26 May 2015 and expires on the earlier of:

  • (a) 26 May 2016, which is 12 months after this Meeting; or

  • (b) the date that Shareholders approve a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (significant change to nature or scale of activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of the main undertaking),

  • or such longer period as allowed by the ASX (Placement Period).

Purposes for Which the New Equity Securities May be Issued

The Company may seek to issue new Equity Securities for the following purposes:

  • (a) cash consideration to raise funds for the acquisition of new assets or investments (including the expenses associated with such acquisition), continued exploration and feasibility study and project development expenditure on the Company's current assets and/or for general working capital; or

  • (b) non‐cash consideration for acquisition of new assets and investments. In such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non‐cash consideration as required by Listing Rule 7.1A.3.

Allocation Policy

The Company's allocation policy for the issue of new Equity Securities under the Additional Placement Capacity will depend on the market conditions existing at the time of the proposed issue. The allottees will be determined at the relevant time having regard to factors such as:

  • (a) the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company, including but not limited to, rights issues or other issues in which existing security holders can participate;

  • (b) the effect of the issue of new securities on the control of the Company;

  • (c) the financial situation and solvency of the Company; and

  • (d) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (as relevant).

As at the date of this Notice the allottees are not known but may include existing substantial Shareholders and/or new Shareholders. No allottee under the Additional Placement Capacity will be a related party or associate of a related party. Existing Shareholders may or may not be entitled to subscribe for any Equity Securities issued under the Additional Placement Capacity and it is possible that their Shareholding will be diluted.

If the Additional Placement Capacity is used to acquire new assets or investments then it is likely that the allottees will be the vendors of the new assets. The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A(4) and 3.10.5A on the issue of any new securities.

SCHEDULE 1. TERMS OF NEW OPTIONS

The New Options will be granted under the following terms and conditions:

  • (a) Entitlement. Each New Option entitles the holder to subscribe for one Share upon exercise of each New Option.

  • (b) Exercise price and end date. The exercise price for each New Option is $0.05 and the end date of each New Option is 31 March 2017.

  • (c) Exercise period. New Options are exercisable at any time after they are issued and on or prior to their end date.

  • (d) Notice of exercise. New Options may be exercised by notice in writing to the Company (“ Notice of Exercise ”) and payment of the exercise price for each New Option being exercised. Any Notice of Exercise of a New Option received by the Company will be deemed to be a notice of the exercise of that New Option as at the date of receipt.

  • (e) Shares issued on exercise. Shares issued on exercise of the New Options rank equally with the Shares of the Company.

  • (f) Quotation of Shares on exercise. Application will be made by the Company to ASX for quotation of the Shares issued upon the exercise of the New Options.

  • (g) Timing of issue of Shares. After a New Option is validly exercised, the Company must, as soon as possible following receipt of the Notice of Exercise and receipt of cleared funds equal to the sum payable on the exercise of the New Option:

  • (i) issue and allot the Share; and

  • (ii) do all such things necessary to obtain the grant of official quotation of the Share on ASX no later than 5 Business Days after issuing the Share.

  • (h) Participation in new issues. There are no participation rights or entitlements inherent in the New Options and holders will not be entitled to participate in new issues of capital offered to Shareholders during the currency of the New Options. However, the Company will ensure that for the purposes of determining entitlements to any such issue, the record date will be at least ten business days after the issue is announced. This will give the holders of New Options the opportunity to exercise their New Options prior to the date for determining entitlements to participate in any such issue.

  • (i) Adjustment for bonus issues of Shares. If the Company makes a bonus issue of Shares or other securities to existing Shareholders (other than an issue in lieu or in satisfaction of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment):

  • (i) the number of Shares which must be issued on the exercise of a New Option will be increased by the number of Shares which the New Option holder would have received if the New Option holder had exercised the New Option before the record date for the bonus issue; and

  • (ii) no change will be made to the Exercise Price.

  • (j) Adjustments for reorganisation. If there is any reconstruction of the issued share capital of the Company, the rights of the New Option holders may be varied to comply with the Listing Rules which apply to the reconstruction at the time of the reconstruction.

  • (k) Quotation of New Options. Application will be made by the Company to ASX for quotation of the New Options.

  • (l) New Options transferable. New Options are transferable provided the transfer of the New Options complies with section 707(3) of the Corporations Act.
