If the member appoints 2 proxies and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the member’s votes each proxy may exercise, then in accordance with section 249X (3) of the Corporations Act, each proxy may exercise half of the votes.

any directed proxies which are not voted will automatically default to the Chair, who must vote the proxies as directed.
Further details on these changes are set out below.
Proxy vote if appointment specifies way to vote
Section 250BB(1) of the Corporations Act provides that an appointment of a proxy may specify the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution and, if it does :
-
the proxy need not vote on a show of hands, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed); and
-
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 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.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of the Shareholders in connection with the business to be conducted at the General Meeting of Classic Minerals Limited to be held at the Hyatt Regency Perth, Mosman Bay Room, 99 Adelaide Terrace at 11.00am WST on Wednesday 27t[h] June 2018.
The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions in the Notice of Meeting (of which this Explanatory Statement forms a part).
1. Ordinary Resolutions 1-14 - Ratification of Prior Issues of Shares
1.1 Background
During the last 12 months, the Company issued 1,159,911,330 Shares without disclosure to investors under the exceptions provided in section 708 of the Corporations Act. The corporate and professional advisors were not related parties of the Company.
1.2 Corporations Act
None of the allottees the subject of Resolutions 1 to 14 in conjunction with any of their associates, hold, either before, during, or after any of the issues the subject of Resolutions 1 to 14 more than 19.9% of the issued capital of the Company.
1.3 Listing Rule 7.4
Resolutions 1 to 14 seeks Shareholder ratification of these issues of Shares pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 and for all other purposes.
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue during any 12 month period any equity securities or other securities with rights to conversion to equity (such as an option), if the number of those securities exceeds 15% of the number of securities in the same class on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.
ASX Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that where, pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4, a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made (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 purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
By ratifying the issue of the Shares the subject of Resolutions 1 to 14 the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future of up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
Unless otherwise stated, none of the Directors have a material personal interest in the subject matter of Resolutions 1 to 14. The Board believes that the ratification of the issues of the Shares is beneficial for the Company. The Board recommends Shareholders vote in favour of Resolutions 1 to 14 as it provides the Company with the flexibility to issue, subject to the limits under the ASX Listing Rules, further securities during the next 12 months without Shareholder approval.

Voting Exclusion Statement
A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice in respect of Resolutions 1 to 14.
Resolutions 2, 3 and 4 – Clarification of Appendix 3B dated 6 April 2018
The Company notes that the issued shares the subject of these resolutions were referred to in the Appendix 3B dated 6 April 2018 and more specifically were included in the calculation of the placement capacity under rule 7.1 on page 10 of that Appendix 3B. Unfortunately due to an administrative error these shares were not set out at item 6c on page 2 of that Appendix 3B, as being securities without shareholder approval under rule 7.1. The Company takes this opportunity to clarify this matter and also to confirm these resolutions do not relate to any directors’ holdings.
