Chairman’s Report

DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDER

The past year has been busy and constructive as the Company expanded its interests in both a geographical and commodity sense with new projects identified in Scandinavia, a most promising new project in British Columbia and the grant of exploration licence applications in Namibia. This overseas activity reflects the high competition in Australia for good exploration projects, as well as the recent strength of the Australian dollar which allows exploration funds to “go further” overseas. It also reflects the Company's recognition of new exploration terranes where we might apply innovative approaches to seeking mineralization hidden beneath cover, utilizing techniques developed and practised by Cullen here in Australia.

Cullen's willingness to engage innovative approaches in exploration is neatly exemplified by our recent base metal discovery (zinc sulphides) in the forests of British Columbia. The opportunity to participate in this exploration project came to us in September 2010 through Dr. Colin Dunn, a colleague of our Chief Geologist Dr. Matthias Cornelius. Dr. Dunn together with two colleagues, Drs. Hetherington and Thompson, both Vancouver-based professional geologists, had pegged ground covering geochemical anomalies in a prospective terrane in south-east British Columbia – the results of a regional geochemical survey undertaken by the Geological Survey of Canada. These anomalies had been generated in a heavily-forested terrane, by sampling fir tree tops from a helicopter for geochemically analysis. This exploration approach, though considered “exotic” by many explorers, was recognised as effective by Cullen and we quickly farmed into the property. The first follow-up exploration by Cullen in May 2011 immediately led to trenching and the discovery of significant, high-grade zinc sulphides in bedrock where the twigs and foliage of the fir trees were geochemically anomalous. This is a remarkable technical success. As a priority we are progressing exploration to test the commercial significance of this most promising discovery.

On other fronts, the Company remains a participant in a potential, major, new iron ore development project in the West Pilbara Region of Western Australia. As a co-venturer in the Mt Stuart Iron Ore Joint Venture, Cullen has been contributing funds for the completion of a Mining Feasibility Study for the Catho Well Channel Iron Deposit. It is envisaged that the iron ore from the Catho Well deposit will be commingled with iron resources from the adjoining API/Red Hill Iron Limited project as part of the broader West Pilbara Iron Ore Project – Stage 1, a technically viable 30 million tonne per annum operation. A Feasibility Study for the Stage 1 development, which will update the Feasibility Study announced to the ASX in June 2010, is expected to be completed in the September Quarter 2011.

Cullen's exploration portfolio is exceptional in both scope and quality for a small explorer and provides shareholders with many opportunities for future success. I thank all shareholders for their continued interest and support. I also thank Managing Director Dr. Chris Ringrose, our staff and contractors for their substantial contribution during the past year, and I look forward confidently to future successes.

Dr. Denis Clarke, Chairman

ASHBURTON/PILBARA, WA

Cullen holds a number of tenements in the Ashburton/West Pilbara Region, in several joint ventures, in the search for iron, gold, and uranium. These joint ventures provide the Company with exposure to a number of exploration plays in an environment where local concentration of exploration effort, by well-positioned players, represents the most cost effective route to a discovery. Exploration programmes are in progress on most of the tenement areas.

WEST PILBARA MT STUART JV - IRON

The Mt Stuart Iron Ore Joint Venture (MSIOJV) is between Cullen - 30%, and the unincorporated joint venture known as the Australian Premium Iron Joint Venture (APIJV) - 70%. The APIJV comprises Aquila Steel Pty Ltd (a subsidiary of Aquila Resources Limited (Aquila, ASX: AQA)) 50%, and AMCI (IO) Pty Ltd 50%. In July 2010, Aquila reported the results of a Feasibility Study (FS) for the 30Mtpa West Pilbara Iron Ore Project - Stage 1 indicating technical viability.

==> picture [186 x 264] intentionally omitted <==

The Catho Well deposit is a potential component of the broader West Pilbara Iron Ore Project (WPIOP). Ore derived from the Catho Well Deposit (MSIOJV) contributes to the main, blended product stream maintaining an average 57.2% Fe throughout the proposed 15 year mine life of the WPIOP - Stage 1 mining operations. The Mining Feasibility Study (MFS) for Catho Well will include a scenario which assumes the ownership of Cullen's run of mine ore will be transferred, after loading to trains, at the “mine gate”. It is anticipated that, based on the MFS, the MSIOJV Participants will require the JV Manager to submit a Development Proposal to the MSIOJV Participants and that this, in turn, will lead to consideration of a Decision to Mine by the MSIOJV Participants.

The MFS Study for the Catho Well deposit, is planned for issue in the September Quarter, 2011.

TUNNEL CREEK JV - URANIUM

The Company has a Joint Venture agreement with Element 92 Pty Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Thundelarra Exploration Ltd (Thundelarra), over its three tenements (ELs 52/1890-1892) at Tunnel Creek/Kunderong, in the Ashburton Province. U308 Limited (U3O8) and Thundelarra have agreed for U3O8 to farm–in and take over management of two of the ELs in this Cullen/Thundelarra JV (EL52/1890 and EL52/1892). U3O8 and Thundelarra can together earn 70%, with Cullen to retain 30% in these two tenements , in what is now called the Saltwater Pool JV .

U3O8 has announced high-grade gold and silver assays from rock chip sampling carried out on the Saltwater Pool Joint Venture area. At the Monster Prospect on EL52/1892 area has returned up to 8.8g/t gold (Au), 150g/t silver (Ag) and 1.1% antimony (Sb). These samples are from a complex, brecciated quartz vein system and were collected from a small area over various parts of the veins. A total of 22 samples returned between 1.0 and 150g/t Ag, whilst 10 samples returned between 0.1g/t and 8.08g/t Au. A review of radiometrics, electromagnetics and satellite imagery is also on-going and this will be followed by a detailed follow up sampling and geological mapping programme.

HARDEY JUNCTION JV – GOLD

Intrepid Mines Limited sold the Paulsens Gold Mine, located approximately 15km north of the Hardey Junction JV ground, to Northern Star Resources Ltd in a deal which included sale of their beneficial interest in the Hardey Junction JV. Cullen holds a 20% Free Carried Interest to decision to mine based on a Bankable Feasibility study in this Joint Venture. Northern Star has completed a 50m line spacing aeromagnetic/radiometric survey with interpretation of data in progress. A targeting/ ranking exercise now underway will determine the priority of future exploration.

EXPLORATION TARGETS

The term Exploration Target where used herein is conceptual in nature and 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 under the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves, the JORC Code (2004). The Exploration Target is not being reported as part of any Mineral Resource or Ore Reserve

CANNING BASIN JV - COAL

Cullen has signed a Heads of Agreement (HOA) with Advaita Canning Resources Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of a private, Singapore-based, energy-focused, investment company Advaita Power Resources Pte Ltd. Advaita's goal is to become a preferred fuel supply partner for Indian power producers and has mandates for coal supply from several power companies setting up over 10 Giga Watts of imported coal-based power capacity in India. Advaita believes that blending low-rank coal from Indonesia with coal from Australia and or Mozambique would be an ideal solution for Indian power projects.

Advaita commenced a 5000 - 10,000m RC drilling program over the granted Canning Basin JV tenements, in mid - July 2011. A series of drill traverses perpendicular to the strike of the regional geology is planned, to gain an understanding of the stratigraphy, and to explore for the coal-bearing horizons.

GUNBARREL - GOLD, NICKEL

Throughout 2010 - 2011 Cullen has been progressively reviewing the extensive database, and undertaken field assessments of the nickel and gold prospectivity of it's Gunbarrel greenstone belt project. Regional data and models for new minerals discoveries, such as “Rosie” – nickel, and “Garden Well” - gold, in the Duketon greenstone belt, have been taking into consideration when identifying priority target areas for drilling at Gunbarrel as follows.

The northern and southern extensions of the Eureka North West mineralization, where previous intersections of gold in conglomerate include 8m @ 2.92 g/t Au, is interpreted to continue for some 10km to the north under lake cover and has not been tested by systematic drilling to date. Horse Well

The northern and southern extension of the Taipan shear zone - the Taipan target area has a best drill intercept of 22m @ 2.1 g/t Au, including 6m @ 5.0 g/t Au. It is a robust mineralised system of quartz veining, pyrite and carbonate alteration hosted by sheared mafic schists over a strike length of 700m and up to 100m wide (91m @ 0.3 g/t Au in "DDH1" from 133m) and open to the north and south.

Nickel targets include: "AK47" (0.2m @ 1.93% Ni from 140m) where further EM and drilling is required; the eastern untested RAB anomaly (11m @ 0.86 % Ni), where ground EM is planned; and several VTEM and ground EM anomalies near “GBD 15” (0.5m @ 0.95% Ni) where further RC drilling is required. Field reconnaissance is in progress and heritage clearance surveys are being planned.

CUE - GOLD AND BASE METALS

==> picture [245 x 285] intentionally omitted <==

The company has an exploration licence (EL20/714) approximately 30km east of Cue, covering the northern part of the Tuckabianna – Webbs Patch greenstone sequence and the eastern granitegreenstone contact. The principal exploration targets are gold and VMS-style base metal mineralisation in this underexplored northern section of the greenstone sequence, which is largely covered by colluvium and sandplain.

Regional geochemical sampling in early 2011 showed a large Au anomaly in ferruginous gravel (11-29ppb Au), approximately 3.5km x 0.75km, lying along the Tuckabianna Gold Trend. Systematic geochemical sampling using plants was completed over the entire tenement area. Assay results received show two regional copper - thallium - silver (Cu-Tl-Ag)

anomalies, located approximately 45km southwest of the Austin Cu-Pb-Zn deposit and 13km northeast of a CuPb-Zn prospect on the eastern side of the Tuckabianna sequence, in completely unexplored, sand-covered terrain. These anomalies lie approximately 2km east of the mapped Tuckabianna greenstone sequence and 2- 13km north of a sedimentary inlier within the granite domain. It is conceivable that the anomalies overlie a sequence of clastic and/or volcaniclastic sediments and greenstone remnants.

Field reconnaissance work and a data review were carried out along the Tuckabianna shear zone for gold exploration. Regional geochemical sampling of ferruginous gravel from early 2010, combined with publicly available data from re-sampling of buried ferruginous gravel, show gold, bismuth and molybdenum anomalism along the northern extension of the Tuckabianna shear zone (11-29ppb Au). Historic RAB and Aircore drill intercepts with anomalous gold (200-900ppb) in Cullen's tenement have not been sufficiently tested by past exploration. Other gold targets for further exploration include magnetic features in and along the felsic sequence west of the Tuckabianna shear zone. A drilling programme is planned to test the various gold anomalies and aeromagnetic targets. Silver Lake Resources Limited (ASX:SLR) has highlighted the prospectivity of their Murchison Project (which adjoins the North Tuckabianna Project to the south) for copper (see SLR ASX release of 27/6/2011), and will drill test base metal prospects in it's project area bordering Cullen's EL20/714 to the south west.

Cullen signed an agreement to assign to MacPhersons Reward Pty Ltd an option held by Cullen's wholly-owned subsidiary, Cullen Exploration Pty Limited to purchase M15/237, M15/128 and P15/5209. These tenements became part of a package of tenements, including the historical MacPherson's Reward Gold Mine and mining lease, which formed an initial public offering (IPO) of shares in MacPhersons, a company managed by Mr. Morrie Goodz and chaired by Mr. Ashok Parekh. Cullen owns 1,000,000 shares in McPhersons Reward Limited (ASX:MRP).

KILLALOE - GOLD AND NICKEL

Cullen and Matsa Resources Limited ("Matsa") signed an agreement to allow Matsa to farm-in to Cullen's Killaloe Project near Norseman in W.A. (EL63/1018, EL63/1199 and PLs 63/1331-1333 and 1672). Matsa can earn a 70% interest in the Killaloe Project by agreeing to sole-fund exploration expenditure of $500,000 within 3 years of satisfaction of the conditions precedent. Matsa can terminate the agreement at any time after incurring a minimum $100,000 of exploration expenditure. Matsa has completed due diligence on the Killaloe Project, and heritage agreements and royalty obligations (relating to a 7.5% net profits interest royalty) have been assigned. Matsa has issued Cullen $100,000 worth of Matsa shares as per the JV agreement. Cullen owns 342,252 shares in Matsa Resources Limited ( ASX:MAT).

Cullen holds a 20% Free Carried Interest in the western portion of Hannans Reward Limited (Hannans) Stormbreaker Prospect, centred ~12km north of the Flying Fox Nickel Mine in the Forrestania Greenstone Belt. Hannans planned to commence an RC drilling programme in September 2011 targeting a surface TEM anomaly and interpreted ultramafic lithologies in a search for nickel sulphides. A total of 9 holes for ~2000m is planned. In addition, Hannans has identified an iron ore prospective Banded Iron Formation where it plans to carry out a programme of RC drilling to follow-up on iron-rich rock chip sample assays and a pervious intersection in drillhole “FSRC035” (35m @ 47.5% Fe). This drilling is expected to commence in November (19 holes).

MINTER, CENTRAL LACHLAN FOLD BELT, NSW

At the Minter Project, Cullen is targeting intrusive, cupola-related, vein/stockwork-type tungsten mineralization along the 12km Doyenwae Trend - a north-trending chain of fractured and quartz-veined zones in hornfelsed Ordovician sediments. This trend is inferred to coincide with an underlying ridge of Kikora Granite along which centres of cupola-related hydrothermal mineralization were developed. Two prominent gravity highs 400m apart have been outlined, which correlate well with magnetically flat areas and highly anomalous tungsten, tin and arsenic in soils. These gravity highs represent drill targets for potentially higher grade, cupola-related tungsten deposits.

MILLUNGERA BASIN - COAL

Cullen has been progressively reviewing available stratigraphic information from petroleum and mineral exploration drill holes, company mineral exploration reports and water bores, and has constructed basic cross sections for its application areas. This has allowed prioritization of applications for further work once approved.

EROMANGA/GALILEE BASIN - WINTON AREA - COAL

The assessment work described above has also identified an area of interest west of Winton where water bore “WB2498” intersected 193.5m (from 112.8m to 306.3 EoH) of “shale and coal” that is interpreted to be Cretaceous Winton Formation. Cullen has applied for four EPCAs covering “WB2498” and stratigraphic extensions north and south. The coal occurrence in “WB2498” is located over the Lovelle Depression which appears to be a basinal structure formed in the Permian, west of a basement high and the major NNW trending Cork Fault. The Permian Aramac Coal Measures and Betts Creek Beds are well developed in the area of these EPCAs but are relatively deep – between 800m and 1300m.

GALILEE BASIN - HUGHENDEN AREA - COAL

Recent drilling results announced by Guildford Coal Ltd (ASX:GUF) from their Hughenden Project, approximately 80kms north of Hughenden, included a combined total of 11.9m of coal seams, with the thickest being 5.6m of coal, within an interval 360-406m of the Permian, Betts Creek Beds. This intersection in GUF's drill hole “H005C” is approximately 30km south of Cullen's EPCA2236. Three target areas for coal within Cullen's tenements have been interpreted from aeromagnetics data, as possible coal-bearing stratigraphy for further exploration upon grant of the applications.

The company, through its wholly-owned Swedish subsidiary company Arctex AB, made applications for six mineral permits in northern Sweden near Kiruna and Jokkmokk in April, 2011. Following a field review and study of databases housed at the Swedish Geological Information Centre in Mala, Sweden, in May 2011 four applications were withdrawn on the basis of perceived prospectivity and logistical considerations. The two applications retained near Kiruna, are considered prospective for iron ore and Iron Oxide Copper Gold (IOCG) deposits and are located in a prime position in terms of existing infrastructure.

The company's Claim Reservations in northern Finland near Kuusamo for gold, were also reviewed in the field in May 2011 and a follow-up biogeochemical survey was initiated in August 2011. The applications in Scandinavia are the foundation of an exploration push into a region which Cullen considers offers substantial exploration opportunities in a well known mining jurisdiction with excellent geological databases, and logistics. Cullen continues to review databases and has identified new prospect ~~areas for field review.~~

BRITISH COLUMBIA, TL PROPERTY - BASE METALS

The Company has signed a farm-in agreement with a Vancouver-based private prospecting syndicate, comprising expert Vancouver-based geoscientists, to further examine a base metal prospect and, if Cullen so wishes, to earn an 80% interest in mineral concessions held by the syndicate- see announcement to ASX of 8th March, 2011.

The mineral concessions offered for farm-in (known as Mabel Lake or the “TL Property”) are located in south east British Columbia, which contains the most extensive and highest concentration of base metal mineral showings and mineral deposit types in the Canadian Cordillera. However, mineral exploration in this area has lagged over the past 20 years, partly because of an obsolete (>30 year old) geoscience knowledge base, and, consequently, lack of modern exploration.

During Cullen’s initial field work, an access track was completed and three WSW orientated trenches were excavated across the strongest biogeochemical anomaly outlined to date within the TL property. Trench samples were collected by diamond saw cutting and/or rock chip sampling, depending on the nature of the material exposed in the trenches. The trenches exposed a 10–35m wide zone of sulphide-rich (pyrite-pyrrhotite) quartzite that is conformable within a host succession of calsilicate-marble, biotite schist and micaceous quartzite.

==> picture [560 x 119] intentionally omitted <==

The mineralized zone has been confirmed over a strike length of 50m, and is open to the south east and north west (see Announcement to ASX of 21st June, 2011). Assay results show highly anomalous molybdenum (Mo) and rhenium, with maximum Mo of 1339ppm, associated with the sulphide zone. In addition, there are anomalous concentrations of copper, bismuth, nickel, tin, and tungsten. Some 20-30m west of the molybdenum-rhenium zone, a separate zone of disseminated zinc mineralization (“black jack” sphalerite) was exposed. Trench sampling gave a best result of 3m @ 8.98% zinc.

The exposed geology in the trenches fits with the geological characteristics of other stratabound, base metal deposits and prospects hosted by the Palaeo-proterozoic Monashee cover assemblage of calcsilicate-marble, quartzite, biotite-garnet-schist and paragneiss. The TL Property is located between and on-trend with the Kingfisher and Big Ledge Lead-Zinc prospects to the northwest and southeast respectively. Geochemically, however, this discovery appears to differ somewhat from nearby stratabound lead-zinc prospects. The molybdenum-rhenium-rich zone, with anomalous concentrations of other metals, and associated with abundant quartz veining may indicate a possible genetic connection with the nearby Tertiary Ladybird granite intrusion. Work is in progress to investigate the nature of the Mabel Lake discovery and further exploration, which may involve a geophysical survey (induced polarization and/or EM), and/or an early exploratory drilling programme is planned.

Review of Operations

Cullen is a mineral exploration company seeking deposits of gold, nickel, coal, copper, uranium and iron ore either in its own right, or managed by other partners in Joint Ventures.

During the year under review, the Company continued its mineral exploration activities including: project generation, database reviews, field mapping and geochemical surveying, drilling programmes, and farm‐out of projects. Company exploration activities, including Joint Venture managed projects, were focused in Western Australia with additional activities in New South Wales, Northern Territory, South Australia and Queensland as follows:

Ashburton Province, WA (Hardey Junction JV, Mt Stuart JV, Wyloo JV, Paraburdoo JV and Tunnel Creek /Saltwater Pool JVs‐ gold, uranium and /or iron ore projects)
North Eastern Goldfields, WA (Gunbarrel, Laverton, Agnew and Irwin Bore, gold and nickel projects)
Eastern Goldfields, WA (Killaloe and Coolgardie, gold and nickel projects)
Forrestania, WA (Forrestania JV, gold and nickel project)
Central Lachlan Fold Belt, NSW (Minter tungsten project)
Eromanga, Millungera and Galilee Basins, NW Queensland (coal and copper‐gold projects)

Drilling by Cullen or its Joint Venture partners during the year to 30 June 2011 included programmes for: iron ore at the Mt Stuart and Wyloo JVs; and for nickel deposits in the Forrestania area. Other exploration field work has

‐ 23 ‐

CULLEN RESOURCES LIMITED ‐ ANNUAL REPORT 2011

included: field reconnaissance, geological mapping, geochemical surveys, and evaluations of new project opportunities. The Company continued to market projects as potential new Joint Ventures.

Also during the year the Company initiated exploration activities in Namibia, in south‐west Africa with a number of field reviews for copper in two prospective terranes. The company also applied for tenements for coal exploration in Namibia and initiated an exploration presence in Scandinavia with applications in Sweden and Finland.

Also overseas, Cullen farmed into the “TL Property” project in south‐east British Columbia in a search for base metals. The first pass trenching programme Cullen conducted discovered high‐grade zinc mineralisation at surface for further evaluation.

A total of $1,935,531 (2010: $2,011,879) was spent on exploration by Cullen during the year, with Joint Venture Partners contributing further exploration funds on Cullen tenements.

Cullen will continue to identify and evaluate both advanced and "grass roots" projects throughout Australia and in selected overseas locations. Cullen’s portfolio is under continual evaluation to focus on projects likely to result in discovery of an economic mineral deposit.

Corporate

At 30 June 2011 available cash totalled $2,632,257 (2010: $2,066,700).

After Balance Date Events

There has not arisen in the interval between the end of the financial year and the date of this report any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the directors, to affect the operations of the Consolidated Entity, the results of those operations or the state of affairs of the Consolidated Entity in the subsequent financial years other than:

Likely Developments and Future Results

Other than as referred to in this report, further information as to likely developments in the operations of the Consolidated Entity and the expected results of those operations would, in the opinion of the directors, be speculative and not in the best interests of the Consolidated Entity.

Environmental Regulation

The exploration activities of the Consolidated Entity in Australia are subject to environmental regulation under the laws of the Commonwealth and the States in which those exploration activities are conducted. The environmental laws and regulations generally address the potential impact of the Consolidated Entity's activities in the areas of water and air quality, noise, surface disturbance and the impact upon flora and fauna. The directors are not aware of any environmental matter which would have a materially adverse impact on the overall business of the Consolidated Entity.

Options

As at the date of this report the Company has 22,000,000 (2010: 14,000,000) options which were outstanding. Refer to Note 11 of the financial statements for further details of the options outstanding.

During the year no fully paid ordinary shares were issued by virtue of the exercise of options (2010: Nil). Since the end of the financial year no shares have been issued by virtue of the exercise of options (2010: Nil).

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)

This report details the nature and amount of remuneration for each director of Cullen Resources Limited.

This remuneration report outlines the director and executive remuneration arrangements of the Consolidated Entity in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations. For the purposes of this report, key management personnel (KMP) of the Consolidated Entity are defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Consolidated Entity, directly or indirectly, including any director (whether executive or otherwise) of the parent company. Only directors of the Consolidated Entity meet the definition of key management personnel as the executive role is performed by the executive director.

Details of key management personnel:

Directors D. Clarke Chairman (Non‐Executive) C. Ringrose Managing Director G. Hamilton Director (Non‐Executive) J. Horsburgh Director (Non‐Executive) W. Kernaghan Director (Non‐Executive)

Remuneration Policy

The remuneration policy of Cullen Resources Limited has been designed to align director objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific long‐ term incentives. The board of Cullen Resources Limited believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best executives and directors to run and manage the Company as well as create goal congruence between directors and shareholders.

The Board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Board members is as follows.

The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the executive director was developed by the Board. The executive receives a base salary on factors such as length of service and experience, superannuation, options and incentives. The Board reviews executive packages annually by reference to executive performance and comparable information from industry sectors and other listed companies in similar industries.

The Board policy is to remunerate non‐executive directors at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and responsibilities. The Board determines payments to the non‐executive directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non‐executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Fees for non‐executive directors are not linked to either long term or short term performance of the Consolidated Entity. However, to align directors’ interest with shareholder interests, the directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company. There is a specified aggregate directors fees of $250,000 for non‐executive directors which was approved by shareholders at a general meeting of the Company. The $250,000 excludes other services outside of non‐executive directors' fees.

Remuneration Incentives

Director and executive remuneration is currently not linked to either long term or short term performance conditions. The Board feels that the expiry date and exercise price of the options currently on issue to the directors and executives is sufficient to align the goals of the directors and executives with those of the shareholders to maximise shareholder wealth, and as such, has not set any performance conditions for the directors or the executives of the Company. The Board will continue to monitor this policy to ensure that it is appropriate for the Company in future years.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

In recognising the need for the highest standards of corporate behaviour and accountability, the directors of Cullen Resources Limited have adhered to the principles of corporate governance and this statement outlines the main corporate governance practices in place throughout the financial year. The ASX Corporate Governance Council released revised Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations on 2 August 2007. Having regard to the size of the Company and the nature of its enterprise, it is considered that the Company complies as far as possible with the spirit and intentions of the ASX Corporate Governance Council's Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations. Unless otherwise stated, the practices were in place for the entire year.

Board of Directors

The Board of Directors of the Company is responsible for the corporate governance of the Company. The Board guides and monitors the business and affairs of the Company on behalf of the shareholders by whom they are elected and to whom they are accountable.

As the Board acts on behalf of shareholders, it seeks to identify the expectations of shareholders, as well as other ethical expectations and obligations. In addition, the Board is responsible for identifying areas of significant business risk and ensuing arrangements are in place to adequately manage those risks.

The primary responsibility of the Board includes:

formulation and approval of the strategic direction, objectives and goals of the Company;
monitoring the financial performance of the Company, including approval of the Company’s financial statements;
ensuring that adequate internal control systems and procedures exists and that compliance with these systems and procedures is maintained;
the identification of significant business risks and ensuring that such risks are adequately managed;
the review of performance and remuneration of executive directors; and
the establishment and maintenance of appropriate ethical standards.

The responsibility for the operation and administration of the Company is carried out by the directors, who operate in an executive capacity, supported by senior professional staff. The Board ensures that this team is suitably qualified and experienced to discharge their responsibilities, and assesses on an ongoing basis the performance of the management team, to ensure that management’s objectives and activities are aligned with the expectations and risks identified by the Board.

The Directors of the Company are as follows:

Dr Denis Clarke Dr Chris Ringrose Grahame Hamilton John Horsburgh Wayne Kernaghan

For information in respect to each director refer to the Directors' Report.

‐ 31 ‐

CULLEN RESOURCES LIMITED ‐ ANNUAL REPORT 2011

Independent Directors

Under ASX guidelines, principle 2.1, two of the current Board of five directors are considered to be independent directors. Dr Ringrose is the executive director and Mr Horsburgh and Mr Hamilton, who are former executive directors, are, under the ASX guidelines deemed not to be independent by virtue of their positions or former positions. The Board is satisfied that the structure of the Board is appropriate for the size of the Company and the nature of its operations and is a cost effective structure for managing the Company.

Board Composition

When the need for a new director is identified, selection is based on the skills and experience of prospective directors, having regard to the present and future needs of the Company. Any director so appointed must then stand for election at the next Annual General Meeting of the Company.

Terms of Appointment as a Director

The constitution of the Company provides that a Director, other than the Managing Director, may not retain office for more than three calendar years or beyond the third annual general meeting following his or her election, whichever is longer, without submitting for re‐election. One third of the Directors must retire each year and are eligible for re‐election. The Directors who retire by rotation at each annual general meeting are those with the longest length of time in office since their appointment or last election.

Board Committees

In view of the size of the Company and the nature of its activities, the Board has considered that establishing formally constituted committees for audit, board nominations and remuneration would contribute little to its effective management. Accordingly audit matters, the nomination of new Directors and the setting, or review, of remuneration levels of Directors and senior executives are reviewed by the Board as a whole and approved by resolution of the Board (with abstentions from relevant Directors where there is a conflict of interest). Where the Board considers that particular expertise or information is required, which is not available from within their number, appropriate external advice may be taken and reviewed prior to a final decision being made by the Board.

Remuneration

Remuneration and other terms of employment of executives, including executive directors, are reviewed periodically by the Board having regard to performance, relevant comparative information and, where necessary, independent expert advice. Remuneration packages are set at levels that are intended to attract and retain executives capable of managing the Company’s operations.

The terms of engagement and remuneration of executive directors is reviewed periodically by the Board, with recommendations being made by the non‐executive directors. Where the remuneration of a particular executive director is to be considered, the director concerned does not participate in the discussion or decision making.

Make Timely and Balanced Disclosure

The board has in place written policies and procedures to ensure the Company complies with its obligations under the continuous disclosure rule 3.1 and other ASX Listing Rule disclosure requirements.

Independent Professional Advice

Directors have the right, in connection with their duties and responsibilities as directors, to seek independent professional advice at the Company’s expense. Prior approval of the Chairman is required, which will not be unreasonably withheld.

‐ 32 ‐

CULLEN RESOURCES LIMITED ‐ ANNUAL REPORT 2011

Code of Conduct

In view of the size of the Company and the nature of its activities, the Board has considered that an informal code of conduct is appropriate to guide executives, management and employees in carrying out their duties and responsibilities.

Communication to Market & Shareholders

The Board of directors aims to ensure that the shareholders, on behalf of whom they act, are informed of all information necessary to assess the performance of the directors and the Company. Information is communicated to shareholders and the market through:

the Annual Report which is available to all shareholders;
other periodic reports which are lodged with ASX and available for shareholder scrutiny;
other announcements made in accordance with ASX Listing Rules;
special purpose information memoranda issued to shareholders as appropriate;
the Annual General Meeting and other meetings called to obtain approval for board action as appropriate; and,
The Company's website.

Share Trading

Dealings are not permitted at any time whilst in the possession of price sensitive information not already available to the market. In addition, the Corporations Act 2001 prohibits the purchase or sale of securities whilst a person is in possession of inside information.

External Auditors

The external auditor is Ernst and Young. The external auditors are invited to attend the annual general meeting and be available to answer shareholder questions about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the auditor's report.

Full details of the company’s corporate governance practices can be viewed at its website www.cullenresources.com.au.

Notes to the Financial Statements

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of preparation

The financial statements are general purpose financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, and Australian Accounting Standards. The financial statements have also been prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention using the accounting policies described below and do not take account of changes in either the general purchasing power of the dollar or in prices of specific assets.

(b) Statement of compliance

The financial statements comply with Australian Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

(c) Accounting policies and disclosures

The Group has adopted all new and amended Australian Accounting Standards and AASB interpretations which were applicable as of 1 July 2010. Adoption of these new and amended Australian Accounting Standards and ASSB interpretations did not have any effect on the financial position or performance of the Group.

The Group has not elected to early adopt any new standards or amendments.

(d) Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Cullen Resources Limited and the results of all of its controlled entities which are referred to collectively throughout these financial statements as the “Consolidated Entity”. The results of controlled entities are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent, using consistent accounting policies. All inter‐entity balances and transactions, and unrealised profits arising from intra‐economic entity transactions, have been eliminated in full.

(e) Taxes Income tax

Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences:

except where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and
in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interest in joint venture, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry‐forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry‐forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilised:

except where the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and
in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

‐ 38 ‐

CULLEN RESOURCES LIMITED ‐ ANNUAL REPORT 2011

Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in the statement of comprehensive income.

Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:

where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable; and
receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.

The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the Statement of Financial Position. Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows.

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.

(f) Provision for employee benefits

Provision has been made in the financial statements for benefits accruing to employees in relation to annual leave and long service leave. Annual leave provisions expected to be settled within twelve months are measured at their nominal amounts. Long service leave provisions are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflow to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method.

(g) Investments in controlled entities

Investments in controlled entities are carried in the company’s financial statements at the lower of cost and recoverable amount. Dividends and distributions are brought to account when they are proposed by the controlled entities.

(h) Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure

(i) Expenditure is deferred

Expenditure on exploration and evaluation is accounted for in accordance with the 'area of interest' method. Exploration and evaluation expenditure is capitalised provided the rights to tenure of the area of interest is current and either:

the exploration and evaluation activities are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest or, alternatively, by its sale; or
exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not at the reporting date reached a stage that permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active and significant operations in, or relating to, the area of interest are continuing.

When the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource have been demonstrated then any capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is reclassified as capitalised mine development. Prior to reclassification, capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is assessed for impairment.

Impairment

The carrying value of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is assessed for impairment at the cash generating unit level whenever facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of the asset may exceed its recoverable amount.

An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an asset or cash‐generating unit exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. The asset or cash‐generating unit is then written down to its recoverable amount. Any impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

(i) Foreign currency Both the functional and presentation currency of Cullen Resources Limited and its Australian subsidiaries is Australian dollars ($A).

Foreign currency transactions are translated to Australian currency at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transactions. Monetary items in foreign currencies at balance date are translated at the rates of exchange ruling on that date.

Exchange differences relating to amounts payable and receivable in foreign currencies are brought to account in the Statement of Comprehensive Income in the financial year in which the exchange rates change, as exchange gains or losses.

‐ 39 ‐

CULLEN RESOURCES LIMITED ‐ ANNUAL REPORT 2011

(j) Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight‐line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets as follows:

Plant and equipment – over 3 to 8 years.

The assets residual values, useful lives and amortisation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate at each financial year end.

(k) Revenue

Other revenue includes interest revenue on short term deposit received from other persons. It is brought to account using the effective interest rate method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.

(l) Joint ventures The Consolidated Entity’s interests in jointly controlled assets are accounted for by recognising its proportionate share in assets and liabilities from joint ventures.

Joint venture expenses are recognised on a proportionate basis according to Cullen’s joint venture interest. The Consolidated Entity does not currently receive any income from its joint venture assets.

The Consolidated Entity does not hold any interests in jointly controlled entities.

(m) Payables

Liabilities for trade creditors and other amounts are carried at cost which is the fair value of the consideration to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the Consolidated Entity.

(n) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at bank and in hand and short‐term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash includes cash on hand and in banks, and money market investments readily convertible to cash within 2 working days.

(o) Leases

The determination of whether an arrangement is or contains a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement and requires an assessment of whether the fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset.

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight‐line basis over the lease term.

(p) Issued capital

Issued and paid up capital is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Consolidated Entity. Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the share proceeds received.

(q) Earnings per share (EPS)

Basic EPS is calculated as net profit/(loss) attributable to members, adjusted to exclude costs of servicing equity, divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element. Diluted EPS is calculated as net profit/ (loss) attributable to members, adjusted for:

costs of servicing equity;
the after tax effect of interest associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares that have been recognised as expenses; and
other non‐discretionary changes in revenues or expenses during the period that would result from the dilution of potential ordinary shares;
divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares, adjusted for any bonus element.

(r) Change in accounting policies

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous year, except as noted at 1(c).

‐ 40 ‐

CULLEN RESOURCES LIMITED ‐ ANNUAL REPORT 2011

(s) Share based payments

At each subsequent reporting date until vesting, the cumulative charge to the Statement of Comprehensive Income is the product of:

(i) The grant date fair value of the option.
(ii) The current best estimate of the number of options that will vest, taking into account such factors as the likelihood of employee turnover during the vesting period and the likelihood of non‐market performance conditions being met.
(iii) The expired portion of the vesting period.

The charge to the income statement for the period is the cumulative amount as calculated above less the amounts already charged in previous periods. There is a corresponding entry to equity.

Until an option has vested, any amounts recorded are contingent and will be adjusted if more or fewer options vest than were originally anticipated to do so. Any option subject to a market condition is considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition is fulfilled, provided that all other conditions are satisfied.

If the terms of an equity‐settled option are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified. An additional expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share‐based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee, as measured at the date of modification.

If an equity‐settled option is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the option is recognised immediately. However, if a new option is substituted for the cancelled option and designated as a replacement option on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and new option are treated as if they were a modification of the original option, as described in the previous paragraph.

The dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

(t) Investment and other financial assets

Financial assets in the scope of AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held‐to‐maturity investments, or available‐for‐sale investments, as appropriate. When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transactions costs. The Consolidated Entity determines the classification of its financial assets after initial recognition and, when allowed and appropriate, re‐evaluates this designation at each financial year‐end.

(u) Impairment of non‐financial assets

Non‐financial assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash‐generating units). Non‐ financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are tested for possible reversal of the impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the impairment may have reversed.

(v) New accounting standards and interpretations

Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective and have not been adopted by the Company for the annual reporting period ending 30 June 2011 are outlined below:

AASB 124 Related party Disclosures (Revised)

The definition of a related party has been clarified to simplify the identification of related party relationships, particularly in relation to significant influence and joint control. The amendments become effective for the Company’s 30 June 2012 financial statements. The Company has not yet determined the potential impact of the amendments on the Company’s financial report.

AASB 2009‐12 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards [AASBs 5, 8, 108, 110, 112, 119, 133, 137, 1023 & 1031 and Interpretations 2, 4, 16, 1039 & 1052]

This amendment makes numerous editorial changes to a range of Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, including amendments to reflect changes made to the text of IFRS by the IASB. The amendments become effective for the Company’s 30 June 2012 financial statements. The company has not yet determined the potential impact of the amendments on the Company’s financial report.

‐ 41 ‐

CULLEN RESOURCES LIMITED ‐ ANNUAL REPORT 2011

AASB 2009‐14 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement [AASB Interpretation 14]

IFRIC 14 provides guidance on assessing the recoverable amount of a net pension asset. The amendment permits an entity to treat the prepayment of a minimum funding requirement as an asset.

AASB 1054 Australian Additional Disclosures

This standard is as a consequence of phase 1 of the joint Trans‐Tasman convergence project of the AASB and FRSB. This standard relocates all Australian specific disclosures from other standards to one place and revised disclosures in certain areas. The amendments become effective for the Company’s 30 June 2012 financial statements. The Company has not yet determined the potential impact of the amendments on the Company’s financial report.

Purpose Entities. The amendments become effective for the entity’s 30 June 2014 financial statements. The entity has not yet determined the potential impact of the amendments on the entity’s financial report.

AASB 11 Joint Arrangements

AASB 11 replaces IAS 31 Interests in Joint Ventures and SIC‐13 Jointly‐Controlled Entities – Nin‐monetary Contributions by Ventures. IFRS 11 uses the principle of control in IFRS 10 to define joint control, and therefore the determination of whether joint control exists may change. In addition IFRS 11 removes the option to account for jointly controlled entities (JCEs) using proportionate consolidation. The amendments become effective for the entity’s 30 June 2014 financial statements. The entity has not yet determined the potential impact of the amendments on the entity’s financial report.

AASB 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities

AASB 12 includes all disclosures relating to an entity’s interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and structures entities. New disclosures have been introduced about the judgements made by management to determine whether control exists, and to require summarised information about joint arrangements, associates and structured entities and subsidiaries with non‐controlling interests. The amendments become effective for the entity’s 30 June 2014 financial statements. The entity has not yet determined the potential impact of the amendments on the entity’s financial report.

AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement

AASB 13 establishes a single source of guidance under IFRS for determining the fair value of assets and liabilities. The amendments become effective for the entity’s 30 June 2014 financial statements. The entity has not yet determined the potential impact of the amendments on the entity’s financial report.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

In applying the Consolidated Entity’s accounting policies management continually evaluates estimates and assumptions based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have an impact on the Consolidated Entity. All estimates and assumptions made are believed to be reasonable based on the most current set of circumstances available to management. Actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions. Significant estimates and assumptions made by the management in the preparation of these financial statements are outlined below:

Significant accounting estimates and assumptions

The carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities are often determined based on estimates and assumptions of future events. The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period are:

(a) Impairment of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure

The future recoverability of capitalised exploration expenditure is dependent on a number of factors, including whether the Consolidated Entity decides to exploit the related lease itself or, if not, whether it successfully recovers the related exploration and evaluation asset through sale. Factors that could impact the future recoverability include the level of reserves and resources, future technological changes, which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes (including changes to environmental restoration obligations) and changes to commodity prices. To the extent that capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is determined not to be recoverable in the future, profits and net assets will be reduced in the period in which this determination is made. In addition, exploration and evaluation is capitalised if activities in the area of interest have not yet reached a stage that permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves. To the extent it is determined in the future that this capitalised expenditure should be written off, profits and net assets will be reduced in the period in which this determination is made.

(b) Share‐based payment transactions

The Consolidated Entity measures the cost of equity‐settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an external valuer using either a binomial or Black‐Scholes model, with the assumption detailed in note 17. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity‐settled share‐based payments would have no impact on the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact expenses and equity.

As at 30 June 2011 future income tax benefits were available to the Consolidated Entity in respect of operating losses and prospecting and exploration expenditure incurred. The directors estimate the potential income tax benefit at 30 June 2011 in respect of tax losses not brought to account is $12,110,776 (2010: $11,221,430) and there is no expiry date. The benefit of these losses has not been brought to account. The benefit will only be obtained if:

(a) the Consolidated Entity derives future assessable income of a nature and of sufficient amount to enable the benefit to be realised.

(b) the Consolidated Entity continues to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by the law; and (c) no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Consolidated Entity in realising the benefit.

Mining tenements are carried forward in accordance with the accounting policy set out in Note 1.

The ultimate recoupment of the book value of deferred costs relating to areas of interest in the exploration and evaluation phase is dependent upon the successful development and commercial exploitation or, alternatively, sale of the respective areas of interest and the Consolidated Entity’s ability to continue to meet its financial obligations to maintain the areas of interest.

(a) Impairment

The directors have reviewed all exploration projects for indicators of impairment in light of approved budgets. Where substantive expenditure is neither budgeted or planned the area of interest has been written down to its fair value less costs to sell. In determining fair value less costs to sell the directors had regard to the best evidence of what a willing participant would pay in an arms length transaction. Where no such evidence was available, areas of interest were written down to nil pending the outcome of any future farm‐out arrangement. The Company will continue to look to attract farm‐in partners and/or recommence exploration should circumstances change.

21. OPERATING SEGMENTS

Identification of Reportable Segments

The Consolidated Entity has based its operating segment on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the executive management team in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources.

The Consolidated Entity currently does not have production and is only involved in exploration. As a consequence, activities in the operating segment are identified by management based on the manner in which resources are allocated, the nature of the resources provided and the identity of the manager and country of expenditure. Discrete financial information about each of these areas is reported to the executive management team on a monthly basis.

Based on this criteria, the Consolidated Entity has only one operating segment, being exploration, and the segment operations and results are the same as the Consolidated Entity’s results.

24. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Group's financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, and cash and short‐term deposits.

The Group manages its exposure to key financial risks, including interest rate risk in accordance with the Group's financial risk management policy. The objective of the policy is to support the delivery of the Group's financial targets whilst protecting future financial security.

The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks as summarised below.

Primary responsibility for identification and control of financial risks rests with the Board of Directors. Due to the size and nature of the company's operations, and as the company does not use derivative instruments or debt, the directors do not believe the establishment of a risk management committee is warranted.

(a) Interest Rate Risk

The Group's exposure to market interest rates relates primarily to the Group's cash and cash equivalents.

The Group's exposure to interest rate risk for each class of financial assets and financial liabilities is set out below.

Financial Instruments *Financial Assets* Cash and cash equivalents *Total Financial Assets*	Consolidated Floating interest rate Floating interest rate 2011 2010 $ $ 2,632,257 2,066,700
	2,632,257 2,066,700

Cash gives rise to interest rate risk because the interest rate is variable.

‐ 55 ‐

CULLEN RESOURCES LIMITED ‐ ANNUAL REPORT 2011

The following summarises the effect on loss and equity of financial instruments held at balance date as a result of a 1% movement in interest rates, with all other variables remaining constant.

		Consolidated

	$	$
Interest rate +1%	(26,322)	(20,667)
Interest rate ‐1%	26,322	20,667

The selection of 1% sensitivity check was based on recent interest rate adjustments.

(b) Currency Risk

The Consolidated Entity has no exposure to foreign currency risk as it operates within Australia and has no overseas operations.

(c) Price Risk

The Consolidated Entity has exposure to equity securities price risk.

The Group's exposure to equity price risk for available for sale financial assets is set out below.

Available for sale financial assets Listed investments *Total Listed Investments*	Consolidated 2011 2010 $ $ 530,450 ‐
	530,450 ‐

The following summarises the effect on loss and available for sale financial assets held at balance date as a result of a 10% movement in listed security prices, with all other variables remaining constant.


		2011	2010
		$	$
Listed security prices	+10%	(53,045)	‐
Listed security prices	‐10%	53,045	‐

The selection of 10% sensitivity check was considered appropriate.

(d) Credit Risk

Credit risk arises from the financial assets of the Consolidated Entity, namely trade and other receivables. The Consolidated Entity's exposure to credit risk arises from potential default of the counter party, with a maximum exposure equal to its carrying amount. Exposure at balance date is addressed in each applicable note.

The Consolidated Entity does not hold any credit derivatives to offset its credit exposure.

Receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Consolidated Entity's exposure to bad debts is not significant.

There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Consolidated Entity and cash and cash equivalents are spread amongst two of the big four Australian Banks.

(e) Liquidity Risk

The liquidity position of the Consolidated Entity is managed to ensure sufficient liquid funds are available to meet the Consolidated Entity's financial commitments in a timely and cost‐effective manner. The Consolidated Entity funds its activities through capital raisings in order to limit its liquidity risk which is monitored on a monthly basis.

Contractual maturity of the trade payables is within 30 day terms.

‐ 56 ‐

CULLEN RESOURCES LIMITED ‐ ANNUAL REPORT 2011

The Consolidate Entity manages its liquidity risk by monitoring the total cash inflows and outflows expected on a monthly basis. The Consolidated entity has established comprehensive risk reporting covering its business units that reflect expectations of management of the expected statement of financial assets and liabilities.

(f) Fair Values

The Consolidated Entity uses various methods in estimating the fair value of a financial instrument. The methods comprise:

Level 1 – the fair value is calculated using quoted prices in active markets

Level 2 – the fair value is estimated using inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly(as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices).

Level 3 – the fair value is estimated using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

The fair value of the financial instruments as well as the methods used to estimate the fair value are summarised in the table below.

below.
	30 June 2011				30 June 2010
	Quoted Market Price (Level 1) $	Valuation technique‐ market observable inputs (Level 2) $	Valuation technique‐ non market observable inputs (Level 3) $	Total $	Quoted Market Price (Level 1) $	Valuation technique‐ market observable inputs (Level 2) $	Valuation technique‐ non market observable inputs (Level 3) $	Total $

‐ Listed Investments	530,450	‐	‐	530,450	‐	‐	‐	‐

	530,450	‐	‐	530,450	‐	‐	‐	‐

Quoted market price represents the fair value determined based on quoted prices on active markets as at the reporting date without any deductions for transaction costs. The fair value of the listed equity investments are based on quoted market prices. There were no transfers between the categories during the year.

(g) Capital Management

Management controls the capital of the Consolidated Entity in order to provide the shareholders with adequate returns and ensure that the group can fund its operations and continue as a going concern.

There are no externally imposed capital requirements.

Management effectively manages the group's capital by assessing the Consolidated Entity's financial risks and adjusting its capital structure in responses to include the management of debt levels, distributions to shareholders and share issues.

The Consolidated Entity uses cash flow forecasts to manage and adjust its capital management.

There have been no changes in the strategy adopted by management to control the capital of the Consolidated Entity since the prior year.

Capital managed by the Consolidated Entity consists of shareholders equity.

In Note 1, the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, that the financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Auditor's responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal controls relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Independence

In conducting our audit we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001. We have given to the directors of the company a written Auditor’s Independence Declaration a copy of which is included in the directors’ report.
