2 PURPOSE AND EFFECT OF THE OFFER

2.1 BACKGROUND

Placement

As announced by the Company on 24 June 2020, the Company proposes to issue 416,666,667 Shares (“ Placement Shares ”) at an issue price of $0.012 per Share to raise $5,000,000 to sophisticated and professional investors ( “Placement ”). 358,166,667 Placement Shares will be issued under the Company’s existing placement capacity under the ASX Listing Rules. A further 41,666,667 Placement Shares will be issued to the Creasy Group and 17,083,333 Placement Shares to the Directors of the Company, subject to shareholder approval.

The Placement will be made to professional and sophisticated investors as such terms are defined in

Section 708 of the Corporations Act (the “ Placees ”).

Further details with respect to Placement and the financial impact of the Placement will have on the

Company is set out in Section 2.3.

2.2 PURPOSE OF THE OFFER

Pursuant to the terms of the Placement, upon the issue of the securities, the Company is required to issue a disclosure document (as that term is defined in the Corporations Act), notice or other document(s) necessary or desirable to ensure that:

  • the Company fully complies with its obligations under the Corporations Act with respect to the issue of the Placement Shares; and

  • the holder will not be subject to any on-sale restrictions under section 707(3) of the Corporations Act or otherwise in respect of those securities.

The Company is unable to issue a cleansing notice pursuant to section 708A(5) of the Corporations Act as its securities have been suspended from trading on ASX for more than five (5) trading days over the last twelve (12) months.

Generally, section 707(3) of the Corporations Act requires that a prospectus is issued in order for a person to whom securities were issued without disclosure under Part 6D of the Corporations Act to offer those securities for sale within twelve (12) months of their issue.

Relevantly, section 708A(11)(b) provides that a sale offer does not need disclosure to investors if:

  • the relevant securities are in a class of securities of the company that are already quoted on the ASX;

  • a prospectus is lodged with ASIC either:

  • on or after the day on which the relevant securities were issued (section 708A(11)(b)(i)); or

  • before the day on which the relevant securities are issued and offers of securities that have been made under the prospectus are still open for acceptance on the day on which the relevant securities were issued (section 708A(b)(ii)); and

  • the prospectus is for an offer of securities issued by the company that are in the same class of securities as the relevant securities.

Accordingly, the primary purpose of the Offer is not to raise capital but to comply with section 708A(11) so that the Placees can, if they choose to, sell those securities within the next twelve (12) months without disclosure.

7

Although the issue of Placement Shares will not be undertaken by the Company for the purpose of selling or transferring those securities, the Directors consider that, should the Placees wish to do so, they should be able to sell the Placement Shares without the need for disclosure under Part 6D.2 of the Corporations Act.

2.3 FINANCIAL POSITION

As set out in Section 2.2, the primary purpose of the Offer is not to raise capital but to comply with section 708A(11). Accordingly, the amount raised under the Offer is nominal (i.e. $120 through the issue of ten thousand (10,000) Shares at an issue price of $0.012 each) and, after paying the expenses of the Offer of approximately $15,206 (exclusive of GST), there will be no net proceeds from the Offer. The expenses of the Offer are set out in Section 4.6.4 and will be met from the Company’s general working capital.

The effect of the Offer on the Company’s financial position will be a net decrease in cash held of approximately $15,086 (exclusive of GST).

The Company notes, however, that the effect of the issue of the Placement Shares will mean that the Company will have an additional $5,000,000 to be utilised for, among other things, additional drilling at the Top Camp gold prospect, administration costs, costs of the Offer, continued exploration of the Company’s other projects and for general working capital in accordance with the following Use of Funds Table.

Application of funds Funds Raised
Continued exploration of the Company's projects 3,200,000
Costs of the Placement 302,000
Administration costs 900,000
General working capital 598,000
Total $5,000,000

2.4 THE EFFECT OF THE OFFER ON THE CAPITAL STRUCTURE

The capital structure of the Company is set out in the table below and takes into account:

  • the effect of the Offer;

  • the issue of Placement Shares to the Placees pursuant to the Placement; and

3 RISK FACTORS

The Shares offered under this Prospectus are considered speculative. An investment in the Company is not risk free and the Directors strongly recommend that investors consider the risk factors described below, together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus, and consult their professional advisers, before deciding whether to apply for Shares.

There are specific risks which relate directly to the Company’s business. In addition, there are other general risks, many of which are largely beyond the control of the Company and the Directors. Some can be mitigated by the use of safeguards and appropriate systems and controls, but some are outside the control of the Company and cannot be mitigated. The risks identified in this Section, or other risk factors, may have a material impact on the financial performance of the Company and the market price of the Shares.

3.1 SPECIFIC RISKS

3.1.1 EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT

Mineral exploration and development is a speculative and high-risk undertaking that may be impeded by circumstances and factors beyond the control of the Company. Success in this process involves, among other things:

  • discovery and proving-up, or acquiring, an economically recoverable resource or reserve;

  • access to adequate capital throughout the acquisition/discovery and project development phases;

  • securing and maintaining title to mineral exploration projects;

  • obtaining required development consents and approvals necessary for the acquisition, mineral exploration, development and production phases; and

  • accessing the necessary experienced operational staff, the applicable financial management and recruiting skilled contractors, consultants and employees.

There can be no assurance that exploration on the Projects, or any other exploration properties that may be acquired in the future, will result in the discovery of an economic mineral resource. Even if an apparently viable mineral resource is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.

The future exploration activities of the Company may be affected by a range of factors including geological conditions, limitations on activities due to seasonal weather patterns, unanticipated operational and technical difficulties, industrial and environmental accidents, changing government regulations and many other factors beyond the control of the Company.

3.1.2 FUTURE PROFITABILITY

The Company’s profitability will be impacted by, among other things, the success of its exploration and mining activities, economic conditions in the markets in which it operates, competition factors and any regulatory developments. Accordingly, the extent of future profits (if any) and the time required to achieve sustained profitability are uncertain and cannot be reliably predicted.

3.1.3 OPERATIONAL RISKS

The operations of the Company may be affected by various factors, including:

  • failure to locate or identify mineral deposits;

12

  • failure to achieve predicted grades in exploration and mining;

  • operational and technical difficulties encountered in mining;

  • insufficient or unreliable infrastructure, such as power, water and transport;

  • difficulties in commissioning and operating plant and equipment;

  • mechanical failure or plant breakdown;

  • unanticipated metallurgical problems which may affect extraction costs; and

  • adverse weather conditions.

In the event that any of these potential risks eventuate, the Company’s operational and financial performance may be adversely affected.

3.1.4 COMMODITY PRICES AND EXCHANGE RATES

The value of the Company’s assets and potential earnings may be affected by fluctuations in commodity prices and exchange rates, such as the USD and AUD denominated commodity prices and the AUD / USD exchange rate.

These prices can significantly fluctuate, and are exposed to numerous factors beyond the control of the Company such as world demand for commodities, forward selling by producers, and production cost levels in major metal producing regions. Other factors include expectations regarding inflation, the financial impact of movements in interest rates, commodity price forward curves, global economic trends, and domestic and international fiscal, monetary and regulatory policy settings.

In the event the Company achieves exploration success leading to viable mining production, the Company’s financial performance will be highly dependent on commodity prices and exchange rates.

3.1.5 CONTRACTUAL RISK

The Company’s ability to efficiently conduct its operations in a number of respects depends upon third party product and service providers and contracts. Accordingly, in some circumstances, contractual arrangements have been entered into by the Company. As in any contractual relationship, the ability for the Company to ultimately receive benefits from these contracts is dependent upon the relevant third party complying with its contractual obligations.

To the extent that such third parties default in their obligations, it may be necessary for the Company to enforce its rights under any of the contracts and pursue legal action. Such legal action may be costly and no guarantee can be given by the Company that a legal remedy will ultimately be granted on appropriate terms.

Additionally, some existing contractual arrangements have been entered into by the Company and may be subject to the consent of third parties being obtained to enable the Company to carry on all of its planned business and other activities and to obtain full contractual benefits.

No assurance can be given that any such required consent will be forthcoming. Failure by the Company to obtain such consent may result in the Company not being able to carry on all of its planned business and other activities or proceed with its rights under any of the relevant contracts requiring such consent.

13

3.1.6 CONDITIONS TO TENEMENTS

Interests in tenements in Western Australia are governed by legislation and are evidenced by the granting of leases and licences by the State. The Company is subject to the Mining Act 1978 (WA) (“ Mining Act ”) and the Company has an obligation to meet conditions that apply to the Tenements, including the payment of rent and prescribed annual expenditure commitments.

The Tenements held by the Company are subject to annual review and periodic renewal. While it is the Company’s intention to satisfy the conditions that apply to the Tenements, there can be no guarantees made that, in the future, the Tenements that are subject to renewal will be renewed or that minimum expenditure and other conditions that apply to the Tenements will be satisfied. Renewal conditions may include increased expenditure and work commitments or compulsory relinquishment of areas of the tenements comprising the Projects. There is also a risk that the Tenement applications will not be granted to the Company. These events could have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s prospects and the value of its assets.

If a tenement holder fails to comply with the terms and conditions of a tenement, the Warden or Minister (as applicable) may impose a fine or order that the tenement be forfeited. In most cases an order for forfeiture can only be made where the breach is of sufficient gravity to justify forfeiture of the tenement. In certain cases, a third party can institute administrative proceedings under the Mining Act before the Warden seeks forfeiture of the tenement.

3.1.7 GRANT OF FUTURE AUTHORISATIONS TO EXPLORE AND MINE

If the Company discovers an economically viable mineral deposit that it then intends to develop, it will, among other things, require various approvals, licences and permits before it will be able to mine the deposit. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to obtain all required approvals, licences and permits. To the extent that required authorisations are not obtained or are delayed, the Company’s operational and financial performance may be materially adversely affected.

3.1.8 LAND ACCESS

There is a substantial level of regulation and restriction on the ability of exploration and mining companies to have access to land in Australia. Negotiations with both Native Title and land owners/occupiers are generally required before the Company can access land for exploration or mining activities. Inability to access, or delays experienced in accessing, the land may impact on the Company’s activities.

3.1.9 RESOURCE AND RESERVE ESTIMATES

Whilst the Company intends to undertake exploration activities with the aim of upgrading existing resources or defining new resources, no assurances can be given that the exploration will result in the determination of a resource. Even if a resource is identified, no assurance can be provided that this can be economically extracted.

Resource and reserve estimates are expressions of judgement based on knowledge, experience and industry practice. Estimates which were valid when initially calculated may alter significantly when new information or techniques become available. In addition, by their very nature, resource and reserve estimates are imprecise and depend to some extent on interpretation which may prove to be inaccurate.

3.1.10 RESULTS OF STUDIES

Subject to the results of exploration and testing programs to be undertaken, the Company may progressively undertake a number of studies in respect to the Projects. These studies may include scoping, pre-feasibility, definitive feasibility and bankable feasibility studies.

These studies will be completed within parameters designed to determine the economic feasibility of the Projects within certain limits. There can be no guarantee that any of the studies will confirm

the economic viability of the Projects or the results of other studies undertaken by the Company (e.g. the results of a feasibility study may materially differ to the results of a scoping study).

Even if a study confirms the economic viability of the Projects, there can be no guarantee that the project will be successfully brought into production as assumed or within the estimated parameters in the feasibility study (e.g. operational costs and commodity prices) once production commences. Further, the ability of the Company to complete a study may be dependent on the Company’s ability to raise further funds to complete the study if required.

3.1.11 UNFORESEEN EXPENDITURE RISK

Expenditure may need to be incurred that has not been taken into account in this Prospectus. Although the Company is not currently aware of any such additional expenditure requirements, if such expenditure is subsequently incurred, this may adversely affect the expenditure proposals of the Company and its proposed business plans.

3.1.12 FUTURE FUNDING NEEDS

The funds raised under the Offer and Placement are considered sufficient to meet the immediate objectives of the Company. Further funding may be required by the Company in the event costs exceed estimates or revenues do not meet estimates, to support its ongoing operations and implement its strategies. For example, funding may be needed undertake further exploration activities, or acquire complementary assets.

Accordingly, the Company may need to engage in equity or debt financings to secure additional funds. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to Shareholders, may be undertaken at lower prices than the Offer price or may involve restrictive covenants that limit the Company’s operations or business strategy.

There can be no assurance that such funding will be available on satisfactory terms or at all at the relevant time. Any inability to obtain sufficient financing for the Company’s activities and future projects may result in the delay or cancellation of certain activities or projects, which would likely adversely affect the potential growth of the Company.

3.1.13 NATIVE TITLE AND CULTURAL HERITAGE

The effect of present laws in respect of Native Title that apply in Australia is that the Tenements and Tenement applications may be affected by Native Title claims or procedures. This may prevent or delay the granting of exploration and mining tenements, or affect the ability of the Company to explore, develop and commercialise the resources on the Tenements. The Company may incur significant expenses to negotiate and resolve any Native Title issues, including compensation arrangements reached in settling Native Title claims lodged over any of the Tenements held or acquired by the Company.

The Tenements are subject to the provisions of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Heritage Protection Act 1984 (Cth) and the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (WA). Accordingly, any destruction or harming of such sites and artefacts may result in the Company incurring significant fines and court injunctions, which may adversely impact on exploration and mining activities.

3.1.14 CROWN LAND

The land subject to the Tenements overlaps with Crown land, including pastoral, historical and general leases. Upon commencing mining operations on any of the Tenements, the Company may need to consider entering into a compensation and access agreement with the lease holders to ensure the requirements of the Mining Act are satisfied and to avoid any disputes arising. In the absence of agreement, the Warden’s Court determines compensation payable.

15

3.1.15 AGENTS AND CONTRACTORS

The Company intends to outsource substantial parts of its exploration activities pursuant to services contracts with third party contractors. The Company is yet to enter into these formal arrangements. The Directors are unable to predict the risk of financial failure or default or the insolvency of any of the contractors that will be used by the Company in any of its activities or other managerial failure by any of the other service providers used by the Company for any activity. Contractors may also underperform their obligations under a contract, and in the event that their contract is terminated, the Company may not be able to find a suitable replacement on satisfactory terms.

3.1.16 ROYALTIES

The Company’s iron, gold and copper mining projects may be subject to State royalties. In the event that State royalties are increased in the future, the profitability and commercial viability of the company’s projects may be negatively impacted.

3.1.17 ENVIRONMENT

The Company’s proposed operations will be subject to State and Commonwealth laws and regulations relating to the environment. As with most exploration projects and mining operations, the Company’s proposed operations are expected to have an impact on the environment, particularly if advanced exploration or mine development proceeds. Such impact may give rise to substantial costs for environmental rehabilitation, damage and losses.

The potential environmental impacts of the Company’s proposed operations and any future projects could be expected to require statutory approvals to be obtained by the Company. There is no guarantee that such approvals would be granted and failure to obtain any environmental approvals that may be required from relevant government or regulatory authorities may impede or prevent the Company from undertaking its future operations.

Although it is the Company’s intention to conduct its activities to the highest standard of environmental obligation, including in compliance in all material respects with relevant environmental laws, if such laws are breached, the Company could be required to cease its operations and/or incur significant liabilities.

3.1.18 ACQUISITIONS

The Company may make acquisitions of, or significant investments in, companies or assets that are complementary to its business. Any such future transactions are accompanied by the risks commonly encountered in making acquisitions of companies or assets, such as integrating cultures and systems of operation, relocation of operations, short term strain on working capital requirements, achieving mineral exploration success and retaining key staff.

3.1.19 RELIANCE ON KEY PERSONNEL

The Company’s success is to a large extent dependent upon the retention of key personnel. There is no assurance that engagement contracts for members of the senior management team personnel will not be terminated or will be renewed on their expiry. If such contracts were terminated, or if members of the senior management team were otherwise no longer able to continue in their role, the Company would need to replace them which may not be possible if suitable candidates are not available. Furthermore, there is no guarantee the Company is able to attract, train and retain key individuals and other highly skilled employees and consultants. As a result, the Company’s operations and financial performance would likely be adversely affected.

3.1.20 REHABILITATION OF TENEMENTS

In relation to the Company’s proposed operations, issues could arise from time to time with respect to abandonment costs, consequential clean-up costs, environmental concerns and other liabilities. In these instances, the Company could become subject to liability if, for example, there

16

is environmental pollution or damage from the Company’s exploration activities and there are consequential clean-up costs at a later point in time.

3.1.21 CLIMATE CHANGE REGULATION

Mining of mineral resources is relatively energy intensive and is dependent on the consumption of fossil fuels. There are a number of climate-related factors that may affect the Company’s business or its assets.

Climate change or prolonged periods of adverse weather and climatic conditions (including rising sea levels, floods, hail, drought, water, scarcity, temperature extremes, frosts, earthquakes and pestilences) may have an adverse effect on the Company’s ability to access and utilise its tenements and/or on the Company’s ability to transport or sell mineral commodities.

Changes in policy, technological innovation and consumer or investor preferences could adversely impact the Company’s business strategy or the value of its assets (including its tenements), or may result in less favourable pricing for mineral commodities, particularly in the event of a transition (which may occur in unpredictable ways) to a lower-carbon economy.

3.1.22 SAFETY

Safety is a fundamental risk for any exploration and production company in regards to personal injury, damage to property and equipment and other losses. The occurrence of any of these risks could result in legal proceedings against the Company and substantial losses to the Company due to injury or loss of life, damage or destruction of property, regulatory investigation, and penalties or suspension of operations. Damage occurring to third parties as a result of such risks may give rise to claims against the Company.

3.1.23 COMPETITION RISK

The Company is one of a large number of exploration and mining companies that operate in the precious metals industry in Australia. Although the Company will undertake all reasonable due diligence in its business decisions and operations, the Company will have no influence or control over the activities or actions of its competitors, which may positively or negatively affect the operating and financial performance of the Company’s projects and business. There can be no assurance that the Company can compete effectively with other iron-ore, base metals and precious metals exploration and mining companies in the search for reserves and resources of precious metals.

3.1.24 BUSINESS RISKS

There are risks inherent in doing business, such as unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, trade barriers, longer payment cycles, problems in collecting accounts receivable, network and infrastructure issues, natural disasters, and potentially adverse tax consequences, any of which could adversely impact on the success of the Company’s operations.

3.1.25 LITIGATION

The Company may in the ordinary course of business become involved in litigation and disputes, for example with service providers, customers or third parties infringing the Company’s Tenements. Any such litigation or dispute could involve significant economic costs and damage to relationships with contractors, customers or other stakeholders. Such outcomes may have an adverse impact on the Company’s business, reputation and financial performance.

3.1.26 INSURANCE COVERAGE

The Company intends to maintain adequate insurance over its operations within the ranges that the Company believes to be consistent with industry practice and having regard to the nature of activities being conducted. However, the Company may not be insured against all risks either

17

because appropriate cover is not available or because the Directors consider the required premiums to be excessive having regard to the benefits that would accrue.

3.2 GENERAL RISKS

3.2.1 INVESTMENT RISK

The Shares to be issued under this Prospectus should be considered highly speculative. There is no guarantee as to the payment of dividends, return of capital or the market value of the Shares from time to time. The price at which an investor is able to trade the Shares may be above or below the price paid for Shares under the Offer. Whilst the Directors commend the Offer, investors must make their own assessment of the risks and determine whether an investment in the Company is appropriate in their own circumstances.

3.2.2 SHARE MARKET

Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s securities regardless of the Company’s operating performance. Further, the market price of listed securities can be expected to rise and fall in accordance with general market conditions and factors specifically affecting the Australian resources sector and exploration companies in particular. None of the Securities which are the subject of the Offer, nor any Shares (including those issued on exercise) carry any guarantee in respect of profitability, dividends, return on capital, or the price at which they may trade on the ASX.

Some factors that may impact the market price of the Company’s securities include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • general economic outlook;

  • interest rates and inflation rates;

  • currency fluctuations;

  • changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

  • the demand for, and supply of, capital;

  • terrorism or other hostilities; and

  • other factors beyond the control of the Company.

COVID-19 has increased global share market volatility and is likely to continue to negatively affect global share- markets for an undetermined period of time.

3.2.3 CHANGES TO LAWS AND REGULATIONS

Changes in laws and regulations in Australia or other relevant jurisdictions concerning property, the environment, superannuation, taxation trade practices and competition, government grants, incentive schemes, accounting standards and other matters may adversely affect the financial performance or the current and proposed operations generally of the Company. Changes in government regulations and policies may adversely affect the financial performance or the current and proposed operations generally of the Company.

Specifically, the availability and rights to explore for precious metals, as well as operational profitability generally, can be affected by changes in government policy that are beyond the control of the Company.

The governments of the relevant States and Territories in which the Company has interests conduct reviews from time to time of policies in connection with the granting and administration of tenements. Changing attitudes to environmental, land care, cultural heritage or traditional

18

religious artefacts and indigenous land rights issues, together with the nature of the political process, provide the possibility for future policy changes. There is a risk that such changes may affect the Company’s exploration, development or operational plans or, indeed, its rights and/or obligations with respect to the tenements.

No assurance can be given that any new laws or regulations or that existing laws and regulations will not be applied in a manner which could limit or curtail the Company’s activities and ultimate development or operations of its projects.

Amendments to current laws and regulations governing operations and activities of mining or more stringent implementation of them could have a substantial adverse impact on the current and any future project and therefore the Company.

3.2.4

ECONOMIC RISKS

The future viability of the Company is also dependent on a number of other factors affecting the performance of all industries and not just the mining industry including, but not limited to, the following:

  • general economic conditions in jurisdictions in which the Company operates;

  • changes in government policies, taxation and other laws in jurisdictions in which the Company operates;

  • the strength of equity and share markets in Australia and throughout the world;

  • movement in, or outlook on, interest rates and inflation rates in jurisdictions in which the Company operates; and

  • natural disasters, social upheaval or war in jurisdictions in which the Company operates.

3.2.5

TAXATION

The acquisition and disposal of Shares will have tax consequences, which will differ depending on the individual financial affairs of each investor. All potential investors in the Company are urged to obtain independent financial advice about the consequences of acquiring Shares from a taxation point of view and generally.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company, its officers and each of their respective advisers accept no liability or responsibility with respect to the taxation consequences of applying for Shares under this Prospectus.

3.2.6 INTEREST RATE RISK

Changes in interest rates can have an impact directly or indirectly on the Company’s investment valuations and returns on any cash deposits held. For example, an increase in interest rates will increase the cost of borrowing and potentially reduce the profits of the Company’s investments. A decrease in interest rates would reduce any revenue the Company receives through interest on cash deposits.

3.2.7 ACCOUNTING POLICY RISK

Changes to accounting policies may influence the approach in determining the fair value of investments held by the Company and may have a detrimental impact on the fair value of investments.

19

3.2.8 CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) RISK

The outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is impacting global economic markets. The nature and extent of the effect of the outbreak on the performance of the Company remains unknown. The Company’s Share price may be adversely affected in the short to medium term by the economic uncertainty caused by COVID-19.

Further, any governmental or industry measures taken in response to COVID-19 may adversely impact the Company’s operations and are likely to be beyond the control of the Company. The Company's ability to freely move people and equipment to and from exploration projects may cause delays or cost increases. The effects of COVID-19 on the Company's Share price may also impede the Company's ability to raise capital, or require the Company to issue capital at a discount, which may in turn cause dilution to Shareholders.

3.2.9 FORCE MAJEURE

Events may occur within or outside the markets in which the Company operates that could impact upon the global and Australian economies, the operations of the Company and the market price of its Shares. These events include acts of terrorism, outbreaks of international hostilities, fires, pandemics, floods, earthquakes, labour strikes, civil wars, natural disasters, outbreaks of disease, and other man-made or natural events or occurrences that can have an adverse effect on the demand for the Company’s services and its ability to conduct business. Given the Company has only a limited ability to insure against some of these risks, its business, financial performance and operations may be materially and adversely affected if any of the events described above occur.

3.3 OTHER RISKS

This list of risk factors above is not an exhaustive list of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The risk factors described in this Section 3 as well as risk factors not specifically referred to above may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of its Shares. Therefore, the Shares offered under this Prospectus carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, return of capital or their market value.

Investors should consider that an investment in the Company is highly speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Shares under this Prospectus.

4.3 RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES ATTACHING TO THE SHARES

The Shares will rank equally in all respects with existing fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company on issue. The following is a general description of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to the Shares. This summary is not exhaustive. Full details of provisions relating to rights attaching to the Shares are contained in the Corporations Act, ASX Listing Rules and the Constitution, a copy of which is available for inspection at the Company’s registered office during normal business hours.

(a) General meetings

Security holders are entitled to be present in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative, to attend and vote at general meetings of the Company.

Security holders may requisition meetings in accordance with section 249D of the Corporations Act and the Constitution of the Company.

23

(b) Voting rights

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of securities, at general meetings of security holders or classes of security holders:

  • (i) each security holder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy, attorney or representative;

  • (ii) on a show of hands, every person present who is a security holder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a security holder has one vote, and

  • (iii) on a poll, every person present who is a security holder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a security holder shall, in respect of each fully paid security held by him, or in respect of which he is appointed a proxy, attorney or representative, have one vote for the security, but in respect of partly paid securities shall have such number of votes as bears the same proportion to the total of such securities registered in the security holder’s name as the amount paid (not credited) bears to the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited).

(c)

Dividend rights

Subject to the rights of persons (if any) entitled to securities with special rights to dividend, the Directors may declare a final dividend out of profits in accordance with the Corporations Act and may authorise the payment or crediting by the Company to the shareholders of such a dividend. The Directors may authorise the payment or crediting by the Company to the security holders of such interim dividends as appear to the Directors to be justified by the profits of the Company. Subject to the rights of persons (if any) entitled to securities with special rights as to dividend, all dividends are to be declared and paid according to the amounts paid or credited as paid on the shares in respect of which the dividend is paid. The Company may not pay interest in respect of any dividend, whether final or interim.

  • (d)

Winding up

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution of the Company, divide among the security holders in kind the whole or any part of the property of the Company, and may for that purpose set such value as he considers fair upon any property to be so divided, and may determine how the division is to be carried out as between the security holders or different classes of security holders. The liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution of the Company, vest the whole or any part of any such property in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as the liquidator thinks fit, but so that no shareholder is compelled to accept any securities or other securities in respect of which there is any liability. Where an order is made for the winding-up of the Company or it is resolved by special resolution to wind up the Company, then on a distribution of assets to members, any securities classified as restricted securities at the time of the commencement of the winding up shall rank in priority after all other securities.

(e)

Transfer of securities

Generally, securities in the Company are freely transferable, subject to formal requirements, the registration of the transfer not resulting in a contravention of or failure to observe the provisions of a law of Australia and the transfer not being in breach of the Corporations Act.

(f)

Variation of rights

Pursuant to section 246B of the Corporations Act, the Company may, with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a meeting of security holders, vary or abrogate the rights attaching to securities.

24

If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of securities, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the securities of that class), whether or not the Company is being wound up, may be varied or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders of three-quarters of the issued securities of that class, or if authorised by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the securities of that class.
