EXPLANATORY STATEMENT TO MEMBERS

This Explanatory Statement forms part of the Notice of Meeting and should be read with the Notice of Meeting.

Financial Report and Directors’ and Auditor’s Reports

The Act requires that the report of the Directors, the report of the auditor and the financial reports be presented to the AGM. In addition the Company’s constitution provides for such reports and statements to be received and considered at the AGM. Apart from the matters involving remuneration which are required to be voted upon, neither the Act nor the Company’s constitution requires a vote of shareholders at the AGM on such reports or statements, however shareholders will be given ample opportunity to raise questions with respect to these reports and statements at the meeting.

Resolution 1: Re-Election of Director – Mr Maurice Gannon

Article 15.4 of the Company’s constitution provides that the Directors have power at any time and from time to time to appoint any person as a Director either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the Directors. Any Director so appointed will retire at the next following general meeting of the Company and will then be eligible for re-election.

Mr Gannon was appointed as an Executive Director on 12 February 2010.

Mr Gannon BSc, GAICD, FCIS, AFAIM, MAusIMM holds a Bachelor of Science Degree, a Graduate Diploma in Applied Corporate Governance and a Business Management Certificate. He has over twenty years experience in business and financial management and a professional background in earth and environmental sciences. Mr Gannon is a Graduate Member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors, a Fellow of the Australian Institute of Chartered Secretaries, an Associate Fellow of the Australian Institute of Management and a member of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. He is President of New Guinea Gold Corporation, a TSX listed exploration and mining company, which is a substantial shareholder of Coppermoly Ltd.

The Directors, with Mr Gannon abstaining, recommend the reappointment of Mr Gannon to the Board.

Resolution 2: Re-Election of Director – Mr Peter McNeil

Article 16.1 of the Company’s constitution provides that one-third of the Company’s Directors (excluding Directors appointed under Article 15.4 or Article 19.3 and the Managing Director) will retire from office and be eligible for re-election each year.

In accordance with Article 16.1 and the Act, Mr Peter McNeil retires as Director by rotation and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election.

Mr McNeil B.Sc., M.Sc. has 27 years exploration experience in Papua New Guinea, U.S.A. and Australia including programs at the Lihir gold deposit and in the Goldfields and Kimberley regions of Western Australia and Tasmania. He has been associated with the discovery of a number of orebodies including Nimary and Sunrise Dam in Western Australia. He is also Managing Director of Frontier Resources Ltd (ASX).

The Directors, with Mr McNeil abstaining, recommend the reappointment of Mr Peter McNeil to the Board.

Resolution 3: Adoption of the Remuneration Report

The remuneration report is set out on pages 14 to 20 of the Coppermoly 2010 Annual Report ( Remuneration Report ). It is also available on the Company’s website www.coppermoly.com.au.

The Act requires listed companies to put an annual non-binding resolution to shareholders to adopt the Remuneration Report. In line with the legislation, this vote will be advisory only, and does not bind the Directors or the Company. However, the Board will take the discussion at the meeting into consideration when determining the Company’s remuneration policy. The Directors believe remuneration as per the report is modest and is at or below industry levels.

Page 4 of 10

The Remuneration Report sets out the remuneration policy for the Company and:

  • reports and explains the remuneration arrangements in place for Directors and senior management;

  • explains Board policies in relation to the nature and value of remuneration paid to Directors and senior managers; and

  • discusses the relation between Board policies and the Company’s performance.

A reasonable opportunity will be provided for discussion of the Remuneration Report at the AGM.

The Directors unanimously recommend shareholders approve the adoption of the Remuneration Report.

Resolution 4: Approval for the Continuation of Employee Incentive Option Plan

Details of the Plan were outlined in a prospectus dated 25 October 2007.

Options issued under the Plan as at 27 September 2010

700,000 options exercisable at 25 cents, expiry 13 March 2011

  • 1,325,000 options exercisable at 10 cents, expiry 5 October 2012

Approval is now sought for continuation of the Plan.

  1. The Plan is described in and administered by the terms and conditions set out below.

  2. The Plan and the terms and conditions of the Plan may only be amended with approval of the shareholders.

  3. Directors may not offer options under the Plan if to do so would cause the aggregate of the number of options issued under the Plan and not yet exercised or expired and the number of shares issued under the Plan during the previous 5 year period, to exceed 5% of the number of issued shares in the Company as at the date of the offer.

Terms and Conditions

  1. The Directors of the Company ( Directors ) may issue options to subscribe for shares in the Company to current part time or full time employees of the Company or of an Associated Body Corporate. However, no options are to be issued to Directors of the Company pursuant to the Plan.

  2. Each option entitles the holder to subscribe for one fully paid ordinary share in the capital of the Company.

  3. The options are exercisable from one year after the date of issue until the expiry date. The options shall expire at 5.00 p.m. eastern standard time, on the first business day three (3) years after the date of issue of the options or such earlier date as the Directors determine at the time of issue ( expiry date ). Options may only be exercised in multiples of 5,000, unless exercising all the holder’s remaining options. Any options not exercised by the expiry date shall lapse.

  4. The exercise price of each option will be 110% of the average of the market closing price for company ordinary shares over the 5 business days prior to the day on which options are issued (rounded up to the nearest full cent) or a greater price determined by the Directors. The amount calculated by that average is to be advised to employees at the time of issue of the options.

  5. Exercise of the options is effected by delivery of a Notice of Exercise to the registered office of the Company together with payment of the exercise price of the options. Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of the options not more than 14 days after receipt by the Company from the option holder of the Notice and the exercise price in respect of the options.

  6. Options may not be exercised if the effect of such exercise and subsequent allotment of shares would be to create a holding of less than a marketable parcel of ordinary shares unless the allottee is already a shareholder of the Company at the time of exercise.

  7. Options are not transferable. Application will not be made to Australian Securities Exchange Limited ( ASX ) for their Official Quotation.

Page 5 of 10

  1. All shares issued upon exercise of the options and payment of the exercise price will rank pari passu in all respects with the Company's then existing ordinary fully paid shares. The Company will apply for Official Quotation by ASX of all shares issued upon exercise of the options.

  2. There are no participating rights or entitlements inherent in the options and holders will not be entitled to participate in new issues of capital offered to shareholders during the currency of the options. However, the Company will ensure that for the purposes of determining entitlements to any such issue, the books closing date will be at least 7 business days after the issue is announced. This will give optionholders the opportunity to exercise their options prior to the date for determining entitlements to participate in any such issue.

  3. In the event of any reconstruction, including a consolidation, sub-division, reduction or return of the issued capital of the Company prior to the expiry date, the number of options to which each holder is entitled or the exercise price of the options or both will be reconstructed as appropriate in a manner which is in accordance with the Listing Rules then applying and which will not result in any benefits being conferred on optionholders which are not conferred on shareholders, subject to such provisions with respect to the rounding of entitlements as may be sanctioned by the meeting of shareholders approving the reconstruction of capital, but in all other respects the terms of exercise of the options will remain unchanged.

  4. If an optionholder under this Plan ceases to be substantially involved with the Company, the Directors, at their discretion may cancel all or part of the holder's options obtained under this Plan after giving the holder 60 days notice of their intention to do so.

Definitions

For the purposes of this Plan:

Associated Body Corporate means a body corporate:

  • (a) that is a “related body corporate” as that term is defined by section 50 the Act 2001; or

  • (b) that has voting power in the Company of not less than 20%; or

  • (c) in which the Company has voting power of not less than 20%.

Resolution 5: Approval for the issue of options to Directors

The Company proposes to issue options to each Director of the Company pursuant to the Directors & Officers Option Plan ( D&O Option Plan ). The total number of options proposed to be issued to Directors is 6,500,000 (in the proportions as described below) ( Additional Directors’ & Officers’ Options ).

In accordance with the approval of shareholders given at the 2009 AGM, the Company is permitted to issue options under the D&O Option Plan to Eligible Participants at any time up to 18 November 2012 without obtaining any further member approval. However, pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.14 and Chapter 2E of the Act, specific member approval is required for any issue under the D&O Option Plan to Directors or other ‘related parties’ as defined in the Listing Rules and the Act. Therefore, shareholder approval to this Resolution, pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.14 and section 208 of the Act, is required before the grant of the Additional Directors’ & Officers’ Options can proceed.

The Board has determined that given the present market conditions, there should be no increase in Directors’ fees. This, combined with the fact that 3 million Directors’ options, exercisable at 30 cents expiring on 22 October 2010 issued in accordance with the Company’s 2007 Prospectus (Robert McNeil [1,000,000], Peter Swiridiuk [1,000,000], Peter McNeil [500,000] and Dal Brynelsen [500,000]) ( Old Options ) were never ‘in-themoney’, has prompted the Board to determine that the Directors should be issued with Additional Directors’ & Officers’ Options as a means to incentivise them and compensate for there being no increase in Directors’ fees for the third consecutive year.

ASX Listing Rule requirements

The Company provides the following information in accordance with Listing Rule 10.15. Approval is sought for the grant of the Additional Directors’ & Officers’ Options on the terms set out below:

  • Robert McNeil;

  • Peter Swiridiuk;

  • Dal Brynelsen;

  • Peter McNeil;

  • Ces Iewago; and

  • Maurice Gannon.

The issue of the Additional Directors’ & Officers’ Options is contingent upon shareholder approval to this Resolution. The issue will be made as soon as possible following approval but in any event within 12 months from the date of the AGM.

There is no intention for the Company to grant a loan in relation to the Additional Directors’ & Officers’ Options or acquisition of shares under the Additional Directors’ & Officers’ Options.

Consistent with Listing Rule 10.15.4, no other person, being a person referred to in Listing Rule 10.14 has received securities under the D&O Option Plan.

The Additional Directors’ & Officers’ Options will be granted under and subject to the terms of the D&O Option Plan.

Chapter 2E Corporations Act requirements

Chapter 2E of the Act regulates the provision of financial benefits to related parties by a public company. The issue of the Additional Directors’ & Officers’ Options contemplated by this Resolution 5 constitutes the provision of a financial benefit to related parties. Section 229 of the Act includes, as an example of a financial benefit, the issuing of securities or the granting of an option to a related party.

A related party is widely defined under the Act, and includes Directors of the Company.

A “financial benefit” is construed widely and in determining whether a financial benefit is being given, section 229 of the Act requires that any consideration that is given or may be given for the benefit is disregarded, even if the consideration is adequate. It is necessary to look at the economic and commercial substance and the effect of the transaction in determining the financial benefit.

Chapter 2E of the Act prohibits the Company from giving a financial benefit to a related party of the Company unless either:

  • a) the giving of the financial benefits falls within one of the exceptions to the provisions; or

  • b) prior shareholder approval is obtained to the giving of the financial benefit.

Page 7 of 10

Information requirements

For the purposes of Chapter 2E, the Directors are clearly related parties of the Company.

For the purposes of Section 219 of the Act, the following additional information is provided to shareholders to enable them to assess the merits of this Resolution.

The Related Party to whom the proposed resolutions would permit the benefit to be given:

Robert McNeil, Peter Swiridiuk, Dal Brynelsen, Peter McNeil, Ces Iewago and Maurice Gannon as Directors, are related parties to whom the proposed resolutions would permit the benefit to be given.

The nature of the financial benefit

The nature of the proposed financial benefit to be given is the grant of Additional Directors’ & Officers’ Options to each of the Directors set out above under the heading “ASX Listing Rule requirements” of this Explanatory Statement.

The Company currently has on issue 139,090,650 shares and 59,181,034 options to acquire shares. The relevant interests of the Directors in shares before and after the transactions described in this Notice of Meeting are set out in the table below:

Key assumptions:

No more shares are issued by the Company and no options are exercised.

1 fully diluted, including Old Options expiring 22 October 2010.

2 fully diluted, excluding Old Options expiring 22 October 2010 (not expected to be exercised before their expiry date).

Dilution of non-related party shareholders

If the Additional Directors’ & Officers’ Options to be issued under this Resolution 5 are exercised (but assuming that the Old Options held by the Directors are not exercised), the Company’s issued share capital will increase by 6,500,000 shares representing 3.22% of the issued share capital of the Company on a fully diluted basis, diluting the shareholders by a corresponding amount.

The market price for shares during the term of the Additional Directors’ and Officers’ Options to be issued would normally determine whether or not they are exercised. If, at any time, any of them are exercised and the shares are trading on ASX at a price that is higher than their exercise price, there may be a perceived cost to the Company.

Directors’ recommendations

The Directors decline to make a recommendation to non-associated shareholders in relation to Resolution 5 because they have a material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution in that they will receive Additional Directors’ and Officers’ Options if the resolution is passed.

Other information that is reasonably required by members to make a decision and that is known to the Company

or any of its Directors

It is a requirement of ASIC that a dollar value be placed on the Additional Directors’ & Officers’ Options to be issued to the Directors.

Page 8 of 10

The Black Scholes option price calculation method has been used as a valuation model in the current circumstances where the Additional Directors’ and Officers’ Options cannot be readily valued by some other means.

The key assumptions used in this calculation are that:

  • 6,500,000 Additional Directors’ and Officers’ Options will vest on the date of issue and are exercisable on or before 1 December 2012 at an exercise price of 19 cents; and

  • the price volatility of the Shares since the Company listed on the Australian Stock Exchange is 455%;

  • no discount has been allowed notwithstanding their unlisted status; and

  • the average current risk free interest rate is approximately 5.75% over 2 years and 6.50% over 3 years.

On this basis, assuming the 5 day VWAP for 11 November 2010 and 17 November 2010 (inclusive) is $0.14 the implied “value” being received by each of the Directors is $0.1084 per Additional Directors’ and Officers’ Option. Therefore the implied value being received by each of the Directors for the Additional Directors’ and Officers’ Options is as follows:

Director Implied Value
Robert McNeil $162,600
Peter Swiridiuk $162,600
Dal Brynelsen $108,400
Peter McNeil $108,400
Ces Iewago $54,200
Maurice Gannon $108,400

If the Additional Directors’ & Officers’ Options the subject of Resolution 5 are all exercised at an exercise price of $0.19, the Company will receive $1,235,000.

The relevant Directors’ current salaries per annum (including superannuation), or consulting fees and the total financial benefit to be received by them when added to the implied “value” to be received by each of the Directors as a result of the grant of the Additional Directors’ & Officers’ Options the subject of Resolution 5 is as follows:

Director Fees p.a.
($)
Implied Value of Total value of
remuneration &
Options($)
Options to be
issued ($)
Robert McNeil $21,800 $162,600 $184,400
Peter Swiridiuk* $130,000 est. $162,600 $292,600 est.
Dal Brynelsen $20,000 $108,400 $128,400
Peter McNeil $43,600 $108,400 $152,000
Ces Iewago $20,000 $54,200 $74,200
Maurice Gannon $141,700 $108,400 $250,100

*P. Swiridiuk is paid a daily rate.

Other than as set out above, the Directors do not receive any other emoluments from the Company.

There is no GST or stamp duty payable by the Company in respect of the issue of the Additional Directors’ & Officers’ Options. The Company is not aware of any adverse tax consequences as a result of the issue.

Trading history

The Company was admitted to the official of ASX Limited on 25 January 2008. During that period, the shares have traded between $0.01 per share (lowest) and $0.19 per share (highest). The latest trading price available at the time of preparing this Notice of Meeting was $0.14 per share on 27 September 2010.

There is a potential benefit that accrues to each Director if the market trading price of the shares issued following exercise of the Directors’ and Officers’ Options exceeds the exercise price. This benefit would accrue on the sale of the shares for an amount in excess of the exercise price.

Resolution 6: Ratification of securities

Listing Rule 7.1 provides that (subject to certain exceptions, none of which are relevant here) prior approval of shareholders is required for an issue of securities if the securities will, when aggregated with the securities issued by the Company during the previous 12 months, exceed 15% of the number of the shares at the commencement of that 12 month period.

The allotment and issue of securities detailed in this Resolution did not exceed the 15% threshold for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.1. Listing Rule 7.4 provides that where a company subsequently approves an issue of securities, the issue will be treated as having been made with the approval for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.1, thereby replenishing that company’s 15% capacity and enabling it to issue further securities up to that limit. The Company seeks approval of the following securities issues to preserve its ability to issue shares under the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 throughout the coming 12 months.

In accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, shareholders are advised of the following particulars in relation to the allotment and issue:
