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 9[th] April 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 1-2 - Ratification of Prior Issues of Shares
1.1 Background
During the last 12 months, the Company issued 515,028,073 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 2 in conjunction with any of their associates, hold, either before, during, or after any of the issues the subject of Resolutions 1 to 2 more than 19.9% of the issued capital of the Company.
1.3 Listing Rule 7.4
Resolutions 1 to 2 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 2 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 2. 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 2 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.

2.5 Voting Exclusion Statement
A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.
3. RESOLUTION 4 – APPROVAL OF PERFORMANCE SHARES
3.1 General
The Company seeks Shareholder approval to create the Performance Shares as a new class of shares in the Company on the terms and conditions in Schedule 1.
Under clause 3.1 of the Company’s Constitution and, subject to the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules and the Constitution, the Company may allot shares in the Company on any terms, at any time and for any consideration as the Directors resolve. Also under clause 3.1 of the Company’s Constitution the Directors have the right to grant, subject to the Listing Rules, to any person, options or other securities with rights of conversion to shares.
Section 246C(5) of the Corporations Act provides that if a company has one class of share and seeks to issue a new class of share, such issue is taken to vary the rights attached to shares already issued.
Under section 246B(1) of the Corporations Act, if a company has a constitution which sets out the procedure for varying or cancelling (in the case of a company with share capital) rights attached to shares in a class of shares, those rights may be varied or cancelled only in accordance with the procedure.
In accordance with clause 3.2 of the Constitution, subject to the terms of issue of shares in a particular class, the Company may vary or cancel rights attached to shares in that class by an special resolution of the Company passed at a meeting of the members holding shares in that class.
Accordingly, the Company seeks approval from Shareholders for the issue of the Performance Shares as a new class of shares on the terms set out in Schedule 1 of this Explanatory Memorandum.
The Company will also seek Shareholder approval in Resolution 4 to issue Performance Shares to the Chief Executive Officer Mr Dean Goodwin.
Page | 9
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
4. RESOLUTION 5 – ISSUE OF PERFORMANCE SHARES TO CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER – MR DEAN GOODWIN
4.1 Background
Pursuant to Resolution 5 the Company proposes to allot and issue 35,000,000 Performance Shares to Chief Executive Office (“CEO”) Dean Goodwin.
The primary purpose of the grant of the Performance Shares to the CEO is to provide a performance linked incentive component in the CEO’s remuneration package to assist the Company in rewarding his performance, and to align his interests with those of the Shareholders. The Board considers that the experience of the CEO will greatly assist the development of the Company. As such, the Board believes that the number of the Performance Shares it is proposed to be allotted and issued to the CEO is commensurate with his value to the Company.
Listing Rule 10.11 requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a related party, or a person whose 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. Approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required in order to issue the Performance Shares as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11.
Mr Goodwin is a related party of the Company by virtue of being the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
Messrs Lester, Salkanovic and Yi recommend the Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5.
4.2 Related Party Approval
The Company is not seeking Shareholder approval for the financial benefit covered by Resolution 5 as the Board (other than Mr Goodwin) has resolved that the financial benefit to be provided to the CEO pursuant to the allotment and issuing of the Performance Shares comes within the reasonable remuneration exemption to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth).
4.3 Information required by Listing Rule 10.13
For the purposes of Listing Rule 10.13, information regarding the issue of the Performance Shares is provided as follows:
-
(a) The Performance Shares will be issued to Mr Goodwin and/or his nominee.
-
(b) The maximum number of Performance Shares the Company can issue to Mr Goodwin and/or his nominee under Resolution 5 is 35,000,000 Performance Shares to be issued as follows:
-
(1) 5,000,000 Class A Performance Shares;
-
(2) 10,000,000 Class B Performance Shares;
-
(3) 20,000,000 Class C Performance Shares.
-
(c) The Company will issue the Performance Shares to Mr Goodwin and/or his nominee no later than one month after the date of the Meeting and it is anticipated that the Performance Shares will be issued on one date.

Instructions for Completing ‘Appointment of Proxy’ Form
-
A shareholder entitled to attend and vote at a meeting is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies to attend and vote on their behalf. Where more than one proxy is appointed, such proxy must be allocated a proportion of the shareholder’s voting rights. If the shareholder appoints two proxies and the appointment does not specify this proportion, each proxy may exercise half the votes.
-
A duly appointed proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company. In the case of joint holders, all must sign.
Corporate shareholders should comply with the execution requirements set out on the proxy form or otherwise with the provisions of Section 127 of the Corporations Act. Section 127 of the Corporations Act provides that a company may execute a document without using its common seal if the document is signed by:
-
Directors of the company;
-
a Director and a company secretary of the company; or
-
for a proprietary company that has a sole Director who is also the sole company secretary – that Director.
For the Company to rely on the assumptions set out in Section 129(5) and (6) of the Corporations Act, a document must appear to have been executed in accordance with Section 127(1) or (2). This effectively means that the status of the persons signing the document or witnessing the affixing of the seal must be set out and conform to the requirements of Section 127(1) or (2) as applicable. In particular, a person who witnesses the affixing of a common seal and who is the sole Director and sole company secretary of the company must state that next to his or her signature.
Completion of a proxy form will not prevent individual shareholders from attending the meeting in person if they wish. Where a shareholder completes and lodges a valid proxy form and attends the meeting in person, then the proxy’s authority to speak and vote for that shareholder is suspended while the shareholder is present at the meeting.
-
Where a proxy form or form of appointment of corporate representative is lodged and is executed under power of attorney, the power of attorney must be lodged in like manner as this proxy.
To vote by proxy, please complete and sign the proxy form enclosed and either:
-
(a) send the proxy form by post to Advanced Share Registry Limited, PO Box 1159, Nedlands, Western Australia 6009; or
-
(b) send the proxy form by post to Classic Minerals Limited, PO Box 487, Osborne Park, Western Australia 6917; or
-
(c) send the proxy form by facsimile to Advanced Share Registry on number (08) 9389 7871.
so that it is received not later than 11.00am WST on 6 April 2018.
Proxy forms received later than this time will be invalid.
