The Entitlement Offer comprises:

  • (a) the Institutional Entitlement Offer ; and

(b) the Retail Entitlement Offer .

The Retail Entitlement Offer is open from 5 May 2020 and is due to close at 5:00pm (AEST)_on 21 May 2020 . Please read the Prospectus carefully before deciding whether or not to invest. If there is any matter on which you require further information, you should consult your stockbroker, accountant or other professional adviser.

Prospectus

1. Investment summary

The information set out in this section is not intended to be comprehensive and should be read in conjunction with the full text of this Prospectus.

1.1 The Entitlement Offer

The Entitlement Offer is for an accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer of approximately 153,295,469 New Shares at an Issue Price of $0.037 per New Share, on the basis of one (1) New Share for every four (4) Shares held by Eligible Shareholders as at the Record Date (together with one (1) free attaching New Option for every four (4) New Shares issued where the relevant Eligible Shareholder applies for more than $4000 worth of New Shares). The Issue Price of $0.037 per New Share represents an approximately 33% discount to the 30 day volume-weighted average price for Shares (being approximately $0.056) as at 24 April 2020.

The Entitlement Offer has two components:

  • (a) the Institutional Entitlement Offer - an offer to Eligible Institutional Shareholders; and

  • (b) the Retail Entitlement Offer - an offer to Eligible Retail Shareholders.

Both the Institutional Entitlement Offer and the Retail Entitlement Offer are nonrenounceable. Accordingly, Entitlements cannot be traded on the ASX, nor can they be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of. If you do not participate in the Entitlement Offer, you will not receive any value for your Entitlement.

The Entitlement Offer is fully underwritten by the Underwriters. Further details of the underwriting appear in Sections 1.7, 2.12 and 8.6.

The Company has Existing Options and Convertible Notes on issue, which could increase the number of New Shares to be issued if the holders of Existing Options exercise their Existing Options or the holders of the Convertible Notes convert prior to the Record Date.

The Company will apply to the ASX within 7 days of the date of this Prospectus for the New Shares to be granted Official Quotation on the ASX. Official Quotation of the New Shares issued under the Institutional Entitlement Offer is expected to occur on or about 5 May 2020 and under the Retail Entitlement Offer on or about 29 May 2020. The Company does not intend to apply for quotation of the New Options.

The Directors may at any time decide to withdraw this Prospectus and the offer of New Shares (together with the attaching New Options) made under this Prospectus, in which case the Company will return all Applications Moneys (without interest) within 28 days of giving notice of such withdrawal.

1.2 Institutional Entitlement Offer

The Company will make offers to Eligible Institutional Shareholders under the Institutional Entitlement Offer. The Institutional Entitlement Offer will be conducted on 28 and 29 April 2020.

Eligible Institutional Shareholders are Shareholders:

  • who have been identified by the Company as a Professional or Sophisticated Shareholder;

Page 11 of 86

Prospectus

  • to whom an offer is made under the Institutional Entitlement Offer (either directly or through a nominee), and does not elect to take part in the Retail Entitlement Offer for all of its Entitlement[1] ;

  • who are not in the United States and are not a person (including nominees or custodians) acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States; and

  • who are eligible under all applicable securities laws to receive an offer under the Retail Entitlement Offer.

Eligible Institutional Shareholders may subscribe for all or part of their Entitlement as set out in the Institutional Offer Letters. Eligible Institutional Shareholders who accept their Entitlement in full may also apply for Additional New Shares from the Entitlement Shortfall Facility. The Directors may at their discretion and in consultation with the Underwriters, allocate Additional New Shares applied for by Eligible Institutional Shareholders. However the allocation of Additional New Shares to those Eligible Institutional Shareholders who applied for them, will take place contemporaneously with the allocation of Additional New Shares to those Eligible Retail Shareholders who applied for them, in each case subject to the availability of a sufficient Entitlement Shortfall to meet demand.

New Shares issued under the Institutional Entitlement Offer will be issued at the same price and at the same ratio as those being offered under the Retail Entitlement Offer. The announcement of the results of the Institutional Entitlement Offer will be made on 30 April 2020 and the issue of New Shares and New Options under the Institutional Entitlement Offer is expected to occur on 4 May 2020.

1.3 The Retail Entitlement Offer

The Retail Entitlement Offer constitutes an offer to Eligible Retail Shareholders only.

Eligible Retail Shareholders are Shareholders who:

  • are on the Register on the Record Date;

  • are not in the United States and are not a person (including nominees or custodians) acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States;

  • were not invited to participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer and were not treated as an Ineligible Institutional Shareholder under the Institutional Entitlement Offer, or who were invited to participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer but elected to take part in the Retail Entitlement Offer for all or part of their Entitlement[2] ; and

  • are eligible under all applicable securities laws to receive an offer under the Retail Entitlement Offer.

Eligible Retail Shareholders are entitled to acquire one (1) New Share for every four (4) Shares held on the Record Date (together with one (1) free attaching New Option for every four (4) New Shares issued for those Eligible Retail Shareholders who apply for a minimum of $4,000 worth of New Shares under the Entitlement Offer). Each New Option is exercisable at $0.084 per share and expires on 28 May 2022.

Fractional Entitlements will be rounded up to the nearest whole number of New Shares.

1 An Eligible Shareholder may take part in the Institutional Entitlement Offer for part of their Entitlement, and take part in the Retail Entitlement Offer for the balance of their Entitlement.

2 A Eligible Shareholder may take part in the Institutional Entitlement Offer for part of their Entitlement, and take part in the Retail Entitlement Offer for the balance of their Entitlement.

Page 12 of 86

Prospectus

The Entitlement Offer is non-renounceable. Accordingly, Entitlements do not trade on the ASX, nor can they be transferred or otherwise disposed of. An Entitlement and Acceptance Form setting out your Entitlement as an Eligible Retail Shareholder accompanies this Prospectus.

Eligible Retail Shareholders may subscribe for all or part of their Entitlement. Eligible Retail Shareholders who accept their Entitlement in full may also apply for Additional New Shares from the Entitlement Shortfall Facility. Eligible Retail Shareholders who do not take up all of their Entitlements will have their percentage shareholding in the Company diluted. See section 5.5 for further details.

There is no guarantee that such Eligible Retail Shareholders will receive the number of Additional New Shares applied for, or indeed, any Additional New Shares at all. The ability for the Company to issue Additional New Shares is dependent upon the extent of any Entitlement Shortfall. The number of New Shares issued under the Entitlement Shortfall Facility will not exceed the Entitlement Shortfall following the Retail Entitlement Offer. The Company, in consultation with the Underwriters, may reject any Application for Additional New Shares or allocate fewer Additional New Shares than applied for by Eligible Retail Shareholders for Additional New Shares. The Directors, in conjunction with the Underwriters, shall allot and issue Additional New Shares in accordance with the allocation policy for the Entitlement Shortfall set out in section 3.8.

The Entitlement Offer as a whole is fully underwritten by the Underwriters. Further details of the underwriting appear in Sections 1.7, 2.12 and 8.6.

Eligible Retail Shareholders should be aware that an investment in the Company involves risks. The key risks identified by the Company are summarised in section 1.8 and set out in section 6 of this Prospectus.

1.4 Minimum subscription for entitlement to New Options

There is no minimum subscription to the issue of New Shares. However, the Entitlement to New Options will only apply to Eligible Shareholders who apply for a minimum of $4,000 worth of New Shares under the Entitlement Offer.

1.5 Purpose of the Entitlement Offer

  • In addition, the Company holds interest bearing Notes issued by Armour Energy with a face value of $4.55m. While the Company would consider the disposal of some or all of the Notes to meet ongoing expenditure commitments, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to find a buyer for the Bonds at their full face value, or at all. This uncertainty is all the greater given the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on investor sentiment generally, and the demand for oil and gas (and energy stocks) more particularly. See sections 1.8 and 6.3 for further details of the risks associated with a failure to realise the full value of these Armour Notes.

** Based on the Entitlement Offer being fully underwritten, and does not take account of brokerage (if any) discussed at section 3.3.

*** To the extent that Entitlements are taken up by use of the Debt Conversion Facility, the amount payable to creditors will reduce by the same amount as the proceeds of the Entitlement Offer.

For further information regarding the potential effect of the Entitlement Offer on control of the Company, please refer to section 5.7.

1.8 Risk factors

Eligible Shareholders should be aware that an investment in the Company is subject to investment and other known and unknown risks, including possible loss of income and the principal invested. Investors should carefully read the section on risk factors outlined below and in section 6. An investment of this kind involves a number of risks, a number of which are specific to the Company and the industry in which it operates.

However, these risks should not be taken to be exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or its Shareholders. Those risk factors referred to section 6, and others not specifically referred to in section 6, may materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of its Shares in the future.

The Company has implemented strategies, actions, systems and safeguards for known risks. However, some risks are beyond its control. Consequently, the prevailing price or value of New Shares issued under the Entitlement Offer may be more or less than the Issue Price.

The New Shares offered under this Entitlement Offer carry no guarantee of profitability, dividends, return of capital or the price at which they may trade on ASX. The past performance of the Company should not necessarily be considered a guide to their future performance.

If you are unsure about subscribing for New Shares, you should first seek advice from your stockbroker, accountant, financial or other professional adviser.

Prospectus

The following sets out a summary of some of the key risks relevant to the Company and its operations:

Risk Details
Current and
future sources
of funding
The Company’s ability to raise further funding to meet both its operating
and capital expenditure requirements, depends upon a number of different
factors. It is unlikely that the Company will be able to obtain any further
debt financing, and the Tribeca Note Facility ($10 million) must repaid on
2 October 2020 unless Tribeca agrees to an extension of it on terms
acceptable to the Company (see the section immediately below for a
further discussion of the risks associated with this facility). Were the
Company able to secure further debt financing, it would likely be required
by the lender to accept negative pledges, covenants and other restrictions
on its operating activities. The Company’s day to day operations (being
the supply of administrative services and support to group companies),
are unlikely to generate sufficient cash flow to meet the Company’s
operating and capital expenditure needs in the near or medium terms.
Meanwhile the Company’s ability to raise further equity financing is very
sensitive to negative market sentiment.
As at the date of this Prospectus the global economic outlook will make it
challenging for the Company to raise new equity capital in the near future.
Of particular note from the perspective of the Company’s ability to raise
future capital (either equity or debt), is the uncertainty arising from the
spread of the COVID-19 virus and the reaction of both governments and
financial markets to what has been declared a pandemic by the World
Health Organisation3. Further the Company also notes that to the extent
that the Company can raise further additional equity, that financing will
dilute existing Shareholders.
Accordingly, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to secure
additional funding on terms favourable to the Company. If the Company is
unable to obtain additional financing as required, it will be unable to
continue to fund its existing projects, take part in capital raisings
undertaken by its daughter entities, or take advantage of opportunities as
they arise. Further, without additional funding the Company may not have
sufficient working capital to be able to meet day to day expenses as and
when needed.
Tribeca Note
Facility
The Company has the Tribeca Note Facility with Tribeca. Currently, the
Tribeca Note Facility is fully drawn to $10,000,000 and the Company is
fully compliant with the terms of the Tribeca Note Facility. Whilst the
Company has been in discussions with Tribeca in respect of the Tribeca
Note Facility, no assurance can be given that the Company will secure an
extension of existing funding or any further funding under the Tribeca Note
Facility, on terms acceptable to the Company. The Tribeca Note Facility
is scheduled to mature on 2 October 2020 unless there is an agreement
to extend it.
Armour Notes
– poor
demand
impacting on
ability to
dispose of at
full value
The Company is contemplating the possible sale of some or all of its
holding of Armour Notes with a face value of $4.55m should it need to do
so in order to fund ongoing operations. The Company has included the full
value of those Armour Notes in its balance sheet as a non-current asset.
However as noted above, at the date of this Prospectus the global
economy (particularly in light of the uncertainty arising from the spread of
the COVID-19) is facing significant challenges.

Page 17 of 86

Prospectus

Risk Details
While the Company is hopeful of realising the Armour Notes as and when
needed for their full face value, there is no guarantee that the Company
will be able to find a buyer for all or any of those Armour Notes at their full
face value or at all. If the Company is unable to realise those Armour Notes
at or near their full face value, this may have a significant impact on the
Company’s continuing ability to fund its existing projects, take part in
capital raisings undertaken by its daughter entities, or take advantage of
opportunities as they arise. Further, without additional funding the
Company may not have sufficient working capital to be able to meet day
to day expenses as and when needed.
Uganda Oil
Project
(a) Pursuant to the terms of the Deed of Indemnity and Guarantee, the
Company is indemnifying Armour Energy for 83.18% of the Ugandan
Licence Liability. In the event that Armour Energy (or if the Ugandan
Licence has been transferred to Armour Uganda, then Armour Uganda)
does not meet the Second Exploration Period Minimum Work Program by
13 September 2021, the Ugandan Licence Liability would be
approximately US$7.5 million. In these circumstances the Company would
be liable to Armour Energy for approximately US$6,238,500 (being
83.18% of the Ugandan Licence Liability). Given the volatility in foreign
exchange markets it is not possible to state what that liability would be in
Australian dollars as at the date of this Prospectus.
(b) Further pursuant to the terms of the Uganda Project Letter Agreement,
Armour Energy would likely be looking to the Company to fund the Second
Exploration Period Minimum Work Program, or at least 83.18% of it. It is
likely the cost of completion of this Work Program would be significantly
greater than the Ugandan Licence Liability. However, the markets for oil
and gas are currently (and in general) volatile. Oil and gas prices are a
direct function of global demand, and the cost and availability of
contractors to carry out exploration drilling programs, are a reflection of
those oil and gas prices. Accordingly, it is not possible currently to state
what that liability would be as at the date of this Prospectus.
(c) While the Company is hopeful that negotiations with the Ugandan
Government will be fruitful, if the Ugandan Government does not agree to
a Uganda Licence Performance Guarantee of a lesser amount than
US$990,000, Armour Energy will look to the Company to fund at least
US$823,482 (being 83.18% of US$990,000). Given the volatility in foreign
exchange markets it is not possible to state what that liability would be in
Australian dollars as at the date of this Prospectus.
The Company notes that Armour has advised the Company that they have
written to the Minister invoking the_force majeure_provisions under both of
the Act and the PSA in respect of its obligations under the PSA generally,
and respect of the 2D Seismic Survey in particular.
Impact of
equity market
conditions on
value of the
Company’s
assets
A large percentage of the Company’s assets (by value), consists of listed
securities, predominantly in daughter entities. The value of these listed
securities can experience extreme price and volume fluctuations that are
often unrelated to the operating performance of the issuers of those
securities. In particular, the occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic has
resulted in significant market uncertainty in global equity markets. The
effects of this pandemic are far reaching and uncertain outcomes may
impact the value of the Company’s assets.
The market price of these assets may fall as well as rise. Those prices are
subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities
in general, as well as on the market for issued securities of companies in

Page 18 of 86

Prospectus

Risk Details
the same line of business as those companies in which the Company
holds securities (being predominantly companies involved in resource
exploration). To some degree, the Company relies on the ability to sell
those securities should it have no other sufficient form of financing. If the
market for those securities becomes illiquid, or their value drops
significantly, this may adversely impact the Company’s ability to fund its
on-going operational and capital expenditure needs.
Exploration
and evaluation
risks
The Company has direct and indirect interests in numerous mining and
exploration companies. Potential investors should understand that
mineral exploration and development are high risk undertakings. Even if
an apparently viable deposit is identified, there is no guarantee that it can
be economically exploited.
Operational
risks and costs
Prosperity for the Company, its subsidiaries or companies it has an
interest in will depend largely upon an efficient and successful
implementation of all the aspects of exploration, developments, business
activities and management of commercial factors. Exploration has been
and will continue to be hampered on occasions by unforeseen weather
events,
accidents,
unforeseen
cost
changes,
environmental
considerations, natural events and other incidents beyond the control of
the Company, its subsidiaries or companies it has an interest in.
Contractual
and joint
venture risk
The Company, its subsidiaries or companies it has an interest in may wish
to develop projects or future projects through joint venture arrangements.
Any joint ventures entered into by, or interests in joint ventures assigned
to the Company, could be affected by the failure or default of any of the
joint venture participants.
Additionally, failure by contractors to perform in accordance with required
timelines, may expose any project in which the Company, its subsidiaries
or companies it has an interest, to risk of forfeiture under applicable laws.
Commodity
prices
The Company’s prospects and perceived value will be influenced from
time to time by the prevailing short‐term prices of the commodities targeted
in its exploration programs. Commodity prices fluctuate and are affected
by factors including supply and demand for mineral products, hedge
activities associated with commodity markets, the costs of production and
general global economic and financial market conditions. These factors
may cause volatility which in turn, may affect the Company’s ability to
finance its future exploration and/or bring the Company’s to market.

Further details regarding risks which may affect the Company in the future are set out in section 6. The New Securities offered under this Prospectus carry no guarantee of profitability, dividends, return of capital or the price at which they may trade on ASX. The past performance of the Company should not necessarily be considered a guide to its future performance.

1.12 Application for Additional New Shares and Shortfall

Any Entitlement not taken up pursuant to the Entitlement Offer will form part of the Shortfall.

Eligible Shareholders who apply for their full Entitlement may also apply for Additional New Shares in excess of their Entitlement at the Issue Price, to be issued from any Shortfall (at the Company’s discretion). Directors of the Company (and any other related parties of the Company) are not permitted to apply for Additional New Shares but may take up their Entitlement, if any, and/or participate as an Underwriters as disclosed in this Prospectus.

Additional New Shares will be issued from any Shortfall at the absolute discretion of the Company and its Directors in consultation with the Underwriters, and as such there is no guarantee that any Additional New Shares applied for will be issued to Eligible Shareholders.

The Company reserves the right to scale back any applications for Additional New Shares under the Shortfall Facility. If this occurs, Application Monies will be returned (without interest) to the extent of the scale back.

In allocating any New Shares under the Shortfall Facility, the Directors will do so in a manner which will ensure that no Shareholder as a consequence of taking up their Entitlement or being placed with any Additional New Shares, hold a Relevant Interest in more than 19.9 % of all of the Shares in the Company after the issue of the New Shares (except as contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement) (see sections 8.10 and 8.11).

In the event that there remains a Shortfall following the issuance of the Additional New Shares, the Company and the Directors reserve the right (as contemplated within the ASX Listing Rules), to allocate any of that Shortfall in their absolute discretion (after consultation with the Underwriters) so as to ensure a maximum amount of funds is

Page 20 of 86

Prospectus

raised. Eligible Shareholders should be aware that to the extent that they do not accept their Entitlements in full a Shortfall will arise, and all or part of that Shortfall may be placed by the Company (in consultation with the Underwriters) to third parties, in which case the interest of relevant Eligible Shareholders in the Company may be significantly diluted (see section 5.5 for further details). Any Shortfall to third parties will be issued within three months after the Closing Date at an issue price being not less than the Issue Price.

Eligible Retail Shareholders may Apply for Additional New Shares by completing the Additional New Shares section of the Entitlement and Acceptance Form, in accordance with the instructions on the form, and including the appropriate Application Monies for these Additional New Shares with the payment for your Entitlement.

4. Company information

4.1 Company and Project Overview

DGR’s business is resource-project generation and discovery across a range of commodities, including copper, gold, nickel, tin, iron ore, titanium, bauxite, lithium, cobalt, oil and gas. The Group focuses on delivering value through the discovery of ore bodies by the application of innovative exploration techniques and reassessment strategies to existing pre-development projects, and to new greenfields areas. The Company is generating and developing several independently funded and managed resource companies in order to progress each of these projects.

The Company has substantial holdings in LSE and TSX listed SolGold plc, AIM listed IronRidge Resources Ltd, and ASX listed Armour Energy, Aus Tin Mining Ltd and Dark Horse Resources Ltd.

In addition, the Company is currently progressing its investment and involvement in the Uganda Oil Project, as well as a number of other companies and projects as outlined below.

4.2 Auburn Resources Ltd

  • (a) Auburn Resources Ltd ( Auburn ) is an unlisted public company of which DGR owns approximately 45% of the issued (and voting) share capital. Auburn is focussed on the discovery and development of copper, gold, nickel, cobalt and zinc deposits. Auburn has 4 major project areas in Queensland and 2 project areas in the Northern Territory. As at the date of this Prospectus, across these project areas Auburn holds 29 tenements (of which 17 are Exploration Permit Minerals (EPM) and 12 are Exploration Licenses (EL)). With a further 5 Exploration Permit Minerals Applications (EPMA) that infill strategic zones of 2 of the Queensland project areas. It is Auburn’s current intention to significantly rationalise its holdings of tenements so as to focus on those which are the most prospective.

  • (b) Auburn’s most advanced provincial sized targets are 10 large nickel/copper/cobalt sulphide prospects discovered in the Hawkwood Project area west of Mundubbera in Qld. This project area is also home to at least 3 porphyry copper gold palladium prospects. In addition, Auburn (held directly or indirectly through other companies), has at least 11 other porphyry and breccia style copper/gold prospects in the Mt Abbot Project area near Bowen, and at Gayndah and Calgoa in southern Qld.

  • (c) In the Northern Territory, Auburn’s wholly owned subsidiary Pennant Resources Pty Ltd ( Pennant ) has identified and secured what is potentially a new mineral province similar to Mt Isa on the eastern side of the Tanumbirini Project area, and a new IOCG[4] system potentially larger than Olympic Dam on the western side. Pennant also holds the much smaller but advanced Ban Ban Zinc Project near Gayndah in Qld.

  • (d) Auburn’s current intention is to seek an initial public offering (or some other entry into the market for public equity) subject to favourable economic and business conditions.

4.3 Uganda Oil Project

The Uganda Oil Project is located within the Albertine Graben in the west of the Republic of Uganda. According to the Ugandan Government the discovered resources in the Albertine Graben are currently estimated at a STOIIP[5] of 6.0 billion barrels of oil equivalent with 1.4 billion barrels recoverable and about 500 billion cubic feet of gas resources[6] . Armour Energy was awarded the Ugandan Licence on 13 September 2017 and the Company has an 83.18% beneficial interest in the Ugandan Licence and the associated project (the Project ).

Ugandan Licence

The initial term of the Ugandan Licence expired on 13 September 2019 (the First Exploration Period ). On 13 June 2019 Armour Energy applied for renewal of the Ugandan Licence. On 13 September 2019 the Ugandan Government announced that subject to Armour Energy meeting four (4) conditions (the Renewal Conditions ), the Ugandan Licence has been renewed for a further two (2) years (the Second Exploration Period ). The Ugandan Licence cannot be renewed for a further term following its expiry in 2021.

Renewal Conditions

Under the Renewal Conditions Armour Energy must (amongst other things):

  • complete a Minimum Work Program defined in the PSA for each of the First Exploration Period (the 2D Seismic Survey ), and the Second Exploration Period (detailed below); and

  • expend the Minimum Exploration Expenditure in each of the First Exploration Period and the Second Exploration Period, as stipulated in the PSA.

The 2D Seismic Survey was not completed by expiry of the First Exploration Period due to inclement weather, and in part due to difficulties in obtaining the necessary dynamite. The total amount which must spent in order to complete the 2D Seismic Survey is approximately US$1.5 million.

The PSA stipulates that for the Second Exploration Period:

  • the Minimum Work Program is the drilling of an exploration well and the undertaking of geological, geophysical and geochemical studies; and

  • the Minimum Exploration Expenditure is approximately US$6.13 million.

The two other Renewal Conditions concern:

  • the provision of a further Uganda Licence Performance Guarantee for the renewed term, in an amount to be agreed; and

  • the relinquishment of some of the blocks the subject of the Ugandan Licence following the results of the 2D Seismic Survey (r elinquishment ).

The document goes on to say "The resources the planning base (P50) on which Government of Uganda and the Partners are basing the development phase and commercialization".

Page 38 of 86

Prospectus

The Company understands that Armour Energy is of the view that neither the Ugandan Licence, the PSA, nor the Petroleum Act mandate that a Ugandan Licence Performance Guarantee is required for the remainder of this term of the Ugandan Licence. Nonetheless Armour Energy and the Ugandan Government are negotiating the amount of such a performance guarantee should one be required. The Ugandan Government initially stated that it would require the Ugandan Licence Performance Guarantee to be in the amount of US$990,000. The Company understands that this has not been agreed to by Armour Energy.

As regards Relinquishment, the Company further understands that Armour Energy has proposed amendments to the PSA such that it will not be required to undertake any further work on the blocks the subject of the Ugandan Licence, should the results of the 2D Seismic Survey be unfavourable. The Company understands that the Ugandan Government has not responded to these proposals as at the date of this Prospectus. Notwithstanding that proposal, the Company understands that Armour Energy geophysicists and geologists believe that the existing exploration work, including reprocessed 2D seismic surveys undertaken at the Kanywataba Block, by previous tenant holders and subsurface re-evaluation conducted by Armour Energy’s geological staff is encouraging and supports ongoing exploration.

The Company understands that on 25 March 2020, the PAU wrote to Armour informing it that it was required by the Regulations to submit a proposed work program and budget for the calendar year 2020 (the 2020 Annual Budget & Work Program ).

The Company further understands that on 9 April 2020 Armour wrote back to the PAU indicating that Armour would not be in a position to prepare the 2020 Annual Budget & Work Program until such time as it had results from the 2D Seismic Survey.

Armour has informed the Company that on 9 April 2020 it wrote to the Minister invoking the force majeure provisions under section 188 of the Act and the PSA, in respect of all its obligations under the PSA generally, and its obligations to complete the 2D Seismic Survey in particular. The Event of Force Majeure (as defined in Armour’s letter) is the COVID 19 pandemic which has disrupted and in some cases ceased supply chains and international travel, thus making it impossible for Armour’s personnel to travel to Uganda to supervise the 2D Seismic Survey.

The Company has been informed that as at the date of this Prospectus Armour has not received a response from either the Minister or the PAU.

Conditional Renewal

The Company understands that it is the Ugandan Government’s position that the Ugandan Licence has been renewed, notwithstanding that two of the Renewal Conditions are still being negotiated between the parties. If this is correct then:

  • as Armour Energy is currently the licensee, Armour Energy is liable for to perform the Minimum Work Program under the renewed Ugandan Licence; and

  • if such obligations are not met and the Ugandan Licence is cancelled by the Ugandan Government, the Ugandan Government will be entitled to demand payment of:

  • (1) any shortfall in the Minimum Exploration Expenditure for the First Exploration Period carried over to the Second Exploration Period (being the amount of approximately US$1 million); and

  • (2) the amount of the Minimum Exploration Expenditure for the Second Exploration Period (being the amount of approximately US$6.13 million).

Page 39 of 86

Prospectus

The aggregate of these two amounts plus costs associated with the Ugandan Licence, make up the Ugandan Licence Liability of US$7.5 million.

Impending transfer of the Ugandan Licence

On 26 November 2018, Armour Energy applied to transfer the Ugandan Licence to Armour Uganda. As a condition of the Ugandan Government’s consent to that transfer, Armour Energy was required to provide the Parent Company Guarantee, which it did on 11 January 2019.

The relevant Minister’s consent to transfer the Ugandan Licence was granted 10 October 2019. To date the Licence has not been issued in the name of Armour Uganda, and the Company currently holds no shares in Armour Uganda.

Deed of Indemnity and Guarantee

As the Company is the beneficial owner of 83.18% of the Ugandan Licence, on 18 December 2019 the Company provided the Deed of Indemnity and Guarantee to Armour Energy.

The Deed of Indemnity and Guarantee will remain in force until to the earlier of:

  • the duration of the PSA and the Ugandan Licence;

  • the replacement of the Parent Company Guarantee. Following the transfer of the Ugandan Licence the parties will use their reasonable endeavours to cause the Parent Company Guarantee to be cancelled and replaced with two further shareholder guarantees; and

  • the transfer of the Licence to a party whose obligations under the Ugandan Licence are not guaranteed or otherwise secured by Armour Energy.

The Company notes that as set out above, Armour informed the Company that it had written to the Minister invoking the force majeure provisions under both of the Act and the PSA in respect of its obligations under the PSA generally, and respect of the 2D Seismic Survey in particular. The Company understands that as at the date of this Prospectus, Armour has not received a response from the Minister.

4.4

Coolgarra Minerals

Coolgarra Minerals holds 5 granted EPMs south of Greenvale, Qld and one EPM west of Theodore in Central Queensland. The tenements are greenfield in nature but considered prospective for gold and cobalt on the basis of work undertaken to date.

4.5 Pinnacle Gold

Pinnacle Gold holds substantial and extensive gold exploration tenements south of Charters Towers, Qld. Most of the area is soil covered, with previous exploration efforts by earlier explorers largely confined to areas of outcrop and focussed on mapping and sampling known workings. Only two areas have been drilled to date.

4.6 Hartz Rare Earths

Hartz Rare Earths has 2 tenement applications in the Northern Territory. These tenements applications are greenfield in nature but are considered prospective for Uranium based on the work undertaken to date.

4.7 DGR Energy Pty Ltd

In keeping with the positive view that the Company’s management has of the potential for significant discoveries of petroleum in the Albertine Graben in the west of Uganda, the Company has procured its wholly-owned subsidiary DGR Energy Pty Ltd to apply for qualification for the second round of licensing for petroleum exploration tenements in Uganda. The Company has made a prequalification payment of UD$20,000 in order to secure the necessary data to make an application for a licence. The initial deadline for submissions was 31 December 2019. This deadline was postponed until the 31st March 2020. However the Company has not received any further communications from the Ugandan Government concerning this second round of licensing, and as far as the Company is aware the Ugandan Government has not made any further public statements about when and if this second round of licensing is to progress. Having said that, the Company remains interested in applying for a right to explore land south of the Ugandan Licence. In addition, DGR Energy is also researching prospective oil and gas opportunities throughout South America.

4.8 Aus Tin – Funding Support

Although ANW is a publicly listed company with its own substantial shareholder base, on 12 March 2020, the Company provided it with a letter of funding support ( ANW 20 March Funding Support Letter ).

In summary the ANW 20 March Funding Support Letter provides as follows:

  • (a) The Company agrees not to call any management fees or other debts owing to it by ANW until each of the parties agree.

  • (b) Subject to paragraph (c) immediately below, the Company agrees to provide funds up to a maximum of $500,000, to meet any of the following expenses:

  • (1) non-management staff salary;

  • (2) rentals, fuel, credit card and insurance instalments;

  • (3) critical accounting, auditing, regular tree and miscellaneous expenses; and

  • (4) such other expenses or for such other purposes as the Company may agree to its discretion.

  • (c) The Company’s agreement to provide the funding referred to in paragraph (b) immediately above, is conditional on:

  • (1) ANW providing to DGR regular progress updates as regards both operational matters and its capital raising plans;

  • (2) any request for funding must be accompanied by details of proposed expenditure which must be approved by the Company;

  • (3) all amounts outstanding to ANW Directors, management and major shareholders with more than a 5% interest will not be called for repayment by those creditors, but will be converted into equity in ANW at a price to be determined by the Company subject to any regulatory or approvals required; and

  • (4) any funding will be provided for a period no greater than the earlier of 12 months from the date of advance, or completion of a capital raising exercise which provides sufficient funds to meet each of the expenses referred to in subparagraphs (1), (2) and (3) above in the ordinary course of business.

Page 41 of 86

Prospectus

  • (d) Any funding provided by the Company will accrue interest at a rate charged by ANW’s bankers on overdraft facilities of $100,000 or more, such interest to be capitalised and repayable when the principal is repaid.

The ANW 20 March Funding Support Letter in addition to a letter of funding support for up to $1 million for a 12 month period, provided by the Company to ANW on or about 20 September 2019 (see ANW’s ASX announcement 20 September 2019 “Operations Update for Granville and Taronga”, and noted in “Significant Events after Reporting Date” in the DGR Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2019, and released to the market as part of the DGR Annual Report on 17 October 2019). As at the date of this Prospectus ANW has only drawn down approximately $50,000 under the letter of funding support provided in September 2019.

However the Company notes that it is a condition precedent to the Underwriters’ obligations that the Company’s Board resolve that any further expenditure to be incurred by the Company in respect of ANW during the term of the Offer or from the proceeds of the Offer, must first be agreed to by Samuel Holdings, acting reasonably. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that any such funding may be provided.

4.9 Dark Horse – Funding Support

Although Dark Horse is a publicly listed company with its own substantial shareholder base, on 12 March 2020, the Company provided Dark Horse with a letter of funding support ( DHR Funding Support Letter ).

In summary the DHR Funding Support Letter provides that:

  • (a) The Company agrees not to call any accrued management fees owing to it by DHR until each of the parties agree. The parties acknowledge that the Company may at its discretion choose to convert any fees owing into further equity in DHR as part of a future pro rata rights issue.

  • (b) Subject to paragraph (c) immediately below, the Company agrees to provide funds to meet minimum corporate requirements including:

  • (1) to facilitate DHR meeting its statutory and regulatory liabilities; and

  • (2) to facilitate DHR entering into, or maintaining payment plans with essential creditors (to which the CFO has consented).

  • (c) The Company’s agreement to provide the funding referred to in paragraph (b) immediately above, is conditional on all directors of DHR and executives accruing their fees, and agreeing to convert the same into equity in DHR with a capital raising.

  • (d) The funding will be provided until DHR undertakes an equity capital raising of at least $500,000.

However the Company notes that it is a condition precedent to the Underwriters’ obligations that the Company’s Board resolve that any further expenditure to be incurred by the Company in respect of Dark Horse during the term of the Offer or from the proceeds of the Offer, must first be agreed to by Samuel Holdings, acting reasonably. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that any such funding may be provided.

Page 46 of 86

Prospectus

The Entitlement Offer is a pro-rata Entitlement Offer so that if all Eligible Shareholders take up their Entitlements and none of the Option Holders exercise their Existing Options, or Convertible Noteholders convert their notes, and participate in the Entitlement Offer, the voting power of all Eligible Shareholders will remain the same. In that event, there will be no actual or potential effect or consequences arising from the Entitlement Offer on the control of the Company. If an Eligible Shareholders does not take up their Entitlement in full it will result in their percentage holding in the Company being diluted by the Entitlement Offer.Details of the potential effect of the Entitlement Offer on the control of the Company are set out in section 5.7.

In the event of a Shortfall, the Directors reserve the right to place the Shortfall at their sole discretion subject to the provisions of the Underwriting Agreement, the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules.

5.6 Debt Conversion Facility

Under the Debt Conversion Facility, an Eligible Shareholder may elect to take up some or all of their Entitlement by means of the conversion of some or all of the existing debt owed to them by the Company. The conversion will be undertaken on a dollar for dollar basis at the Issue Price, and in the case of any Fractional Entitlements, the number of New Shares arising from the conversion of the debt shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number.

As the Debt Conversion Facility does not enable any creditor Eligible Shareholders to take up more New Shares under the Entitlement Offer than if the facility was not available, the Debt Conversion Facility will have no effect on the capital structure of the Company.

5.7 Effect of the Entitlement Offer on control of the Company

General effect and consequences

The potential effect that the Entitlement Offer will have on the control of the Company, and the consequences of that effect, will depend on a number of factors, including Shareholder take-up of the Entitlement Offer and the consequences of the Underwriting of the Entitlement Offer.

The Entitlement Offer is a pro-rata Entitlement Offer so that if all Eligible Shareholders take up their Entitlements and none of the Existing Options are exercised and none of the Convertible Notes are converted prior to the Record Date, the voting power of all Eligible Shareholders will remain the same. In that event, there will be no actual or potential effect or consequences arising from the Entitlement Offer on the control of the Company.

However, Eligible Shareholders who do not take up all of their Entitlements will have their interest in the Company diluted as a result of the Offer.

Where Entitlements not taken up

In the event that there are still New Shares not applied for following the issuance of the Additional New Shares under the Shortfall, the Company and the Directors reserve the right, as contemplated within the Listing Rules, to allocate any remaining Shortfall in their absolute discretion and subject to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement to conduct a placement of the remaining Shortfall to ensure a maximum amount of funds are raised. They will do so in a manner which will ensure that no Shareholder or other investor will, as a consequence of being issued any Shortfall, hold a Relevant Interest in more than 19.9% of all of the Shares in the Company after this Offer where such holding would be contrary to the Corporations Act or FATA (see sections 8.10 and 8.11).

Effect on Relevant Interest of Substantial Shareholders

As at the date of this Prospectus the Company has received substantial shareholding notices from the following parties:

Shareholder Number of Shares %
Nicholas Mather * 112,142,553 18.29
Tenstar Trading Limited 110,012,044 17.94

* Nicholas Mather’s interests are held directly and indirectly, including through Samuel Holdings, one of the Underwriters.

If the Entitlement Offer is fully subscribed and the interests associated with Nicholas Mather, a director of the Company (the Mather Interests ), and Tenstar Trading Ltd ( Tenstar ) subscribe for all of their Entitlements pursuant to the Entitlement Offer, there will be no change to their Relevant Interests in DGR Shares.

The Mather Interests includes Samuel Holdings. Samuel Holdings has agreed to partially underwrite the Entitlement Offer up to $2,585,966 (which will include Samuel Holdings’ Entitlement under the Entitlement Offer). The balance of the Entitlement Offer is underwritten by Samuel Terry Asset Management as to $2,585,966 and Phoenix Portfolios as to $500,000.

If the Mather Interests subscribe for all of their Entitlements pursuant to the Entitlement Offer, but not all Eligible Shareholders subscribe for their Entitlements, and Samuel Holdings is called on to subscribe for some or all of its underwriting commitment, the Mather Interests’ Relevant Interest in the Company will increase. The potential increase in the Mather Interests’ Relevant Interest if none of the other Eligible Shareholders participate in the Entitlement Offer, is detailed in Table 4 below.

If Tenstar does not fully participate in the Entitlement Offer, its Relevant Interest will reduce.

Set out below are the Entitlements of the Shareholders that comprise the Mather Interests, Samuel Terry Asset Management, Phoenix Portfolios and Tenstar, together with the New Shares to be taken up under the Underwriting Agreement.

Notes:

  • (1) Given the restrictions placed on foreign persons from acquiring interests in Australian entities pursuant to FATA, the Company will not allow Tenstar to acquire an interest in more than 19.9% of the Company without satisfactory evidence of Tenstar’s compliance with FATA. However given that the Offer is fully underwritten, even if Tenstar takes up its full Entitlement its Relevant Interest should not change, and will remain below 19.9%. For more details see section 8.10.

  • (2) These numbers assume that no New Options that are issued to the relevant parties are exercised. If any of the New Options are exercised, then the relevant parties’ percentage holdings may increase.

The Directors understand that, should Samuel Holdings’ holding increase upon completion of the Entitlement Offer, its present intentions are to procure that the Company will:

  • (a) generally continue the business of the Company;

  • (b) not make any material changes to the business of the Company; and

  • (c) continue the employment of the Company’s present employees.

The Directors do not expect that the potential effects on control outlined above will result in any material change to the Company’s current objectives and proposed actions.

5.8 Takeovers provisions

The Company understands that Samuel Holdings intends to rely on the “underwriting of fundraising” exception to Section 606 of the Corporations set out in item 13 of section 611, and the general exception for the issue of securities to an underwriter of a rights issue as set out in item 10 of section 611. See section 8.11 for more details.

5.9 FATA

The Company notes that if any foreign shareholder (including Tenstar) acquires an interest of 20% or more in the Company, it may require approval pursuant to the FATA. Accordingly, the Company will not allow any foreign shareholder to acquire more than 19.99% of the Company’s issued share capital without evidence of any required approval under the FATA. See section 8.10 for more details.

6. Risk factors

6.1 Introduction

The activities of the Company, as in any business, are subject to risks which may impact on its future performance. The Company has appropriate actions, systems and safeguards for known risks, however, some are outside its control.

Prior to making any decision to accept the Entitlement Offer, Eligible Shareholders should carefully consider the risk factors which the Company has previously disclosed (many of which are listed below), as well as those risks of which the Eligible Shareholders is aware, or should be aware of, through their own knowledge and enquiries.

Some of the risks may be mitigated by the Company using safeguards and appropriate systems and taking certain actions. However, as noted above and previously, some of the risks are outside the control of the Company and are not capable of mitigation. There are also general risks associated with any investment in shares.

There can be no guarantee that the Company will achieve its stated objectives or that any forward-looking statements will eventuate. An investment in a business with limited operating history, such as DGR, is considered speculative and an investor could lose most or all of any investment. There are also general risks associated with any investment in shares. More specifically, the risks are that:

  • (a) the price at which the Applicant is able to sell the New Shares is less than the price paid due to changes in market circumstances;

  • (b) the Applicant is unable to sell the New Shares;

  • (c) the Company is placed in receivership or liquidation making it reasonably foreseeable that Shareholders could receive none, or only some of their initial investment; and

  • (d) the Company fails to generate sufficient profit in order to pay dividends.

In the event of insolvency, the holders of fully paid ordinary shares would not normally be liable to pay money to any person. An exception could occur where a distribution, such as a dividend, has been made to Shareholders in circumstances where the Company was unable at that time to meet the solvency test set out in the Corporations Act. In that case, a liquidator may call for a return of such distributions.

Potential investors should therefore carefully consider all associated risks before applying for New Shares under this Prospectus and should consider their personal circumstances (including financial and taxation issues) and seek advice from their stockbroker, accountant, solicitor or other professional advisers before deciding whether to invest.

A number of material risk factors which may adversely affect the Group and the value of the New Shares offered under this Prospectus are set out in this section. The risks listed below (and previously disclosed by the Company) should not be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company. Factors other than those listed may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the New Shares.

Page 52 of 86

Prospectus

6.2 General Risks

An investment in the New Shares should be considered speculative due to the nature of the mining industry generally. Resource exploration involves many risks, which even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome. There can be no assurance that the Company’s intended exploration targets will lead to the development of mining operations.

The operations of the Company in developing and commissioning a mine may be affected by a range of factors including the failure to obtain all government approvals (to commence mining), protected grades in exploration, mining and processing, technical difficulties encountered in commissioning and operating plant and equipment, mechanical failure, metallurgical problems which affect extraction rates and costs, adverse weather conditions, industrial and environment accidents, industrial disputes, unexpected shortages or increases in the cost of consumables, spare parts, plant and equipment.

A summary of the major general risks is outlined below:

(a) Dilution

Shareholders should be aware that to the extent that they do not accept their Entitlements in full, a Shortfall will arise and all or part of any Shortfall may be placed by the Company, in consultation with the Underwriters, to other parties in which case their interest in the Company may be significantly diluted (see section 5.5 for further details). Further the Entitlement Offer is not being extended to Shareholders with registered addresses outside of Australia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Singapore, United Kingdom and Jersey (Channel Islands) and the holdings of those Shareholders in the Company will be diluted by the Entitlement Offer. Given the terms of the Entitlement Offer, the interests of a Shareholder in the Company may be diluted by up to 20% in the event that they elect not to accept their Entitlement in full if the Entitlement Offer is fully subscribed or alternatively, any Shortfall is fully placed.

Acceptance of Entitlements or the placement of any Shortfall may also result in existing Shareholders or new investors significantly increasing their interest in the Company or obtaining a substantial interest in the Company. However, the Shortfall will only be placed to the extent that such placement will not result in a party being in breach of either:

  • (1) the Takeover Provisions (see section 8.11); or

  • (2) the FATA (see section 8.10).

The Company will work in consultation with the Underwriters during and after the Retail Entitlement Offer in order to secure commitments to place, and subsequently to place, any Shortfall of New Shares not subscribed for by Eligible Shareholders.

(b) Share Market Risk

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. The New Shares carry no guarantee in respect of profitability, dividends, return on capital, or the price at which they may trade on the ASX.

Page 53 of 86

Prospectus

There are a number of factors (both national and international) that may affect the share market price and neither the Company nor its Directors have control of those factors.

(c) Liquidity of New Options

The Company does not intend to seek listing of the New Options. This may impact on the liquidity of the New Options.

(d) General Economic Conditions

Changes in the general economic climate in which the Company operates may adversely affect the financial performance of the Company. Factors that may contribute to that economic climate include the general level of economic activity, interest rates, inflation, supply and demand, industrial disruption and other economic factors, such as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The price of commodities will also be of particular relevance to the Company. These factors are beyond the control of the Company and the Company cannot, with any degree of certainty, predict how they will impact on the Company.

(e) Share price fluctuations

The market price of the Company’s Shares will be subject to varied and often unpredictable influences in the share market. Both domestic and world economic conditions may affect the performance of the Company. Factors such as the level of industrial production, inflation and interest rates impact all commodity prices including minerals. Similarly, because the substantial assets of DGR are investments in other listed companies, variations in the market prices of those companies may also impact on the share price of DGR from time to time.

(f) Unforeseen expenses

While the Company is not aware of any expenses that may need to be incurred that have not been taken into account, if such expenses were subsequently incurred, the expenditure proposals of the Company may be adversely affected.

6.3 Risks specific to an investment in the Company

In addition to the general risks noted in section 6.2, Eligible Shareholders should be aware of risks specific to an investment in the Company, which may include, but are not limited to the following:

(a) Current and future sources of funding

The Company’s ability to raise further funding to meet both its operating and capital expenditure requirements, depends upon a number of different factors. It is unlikely that the Company will be able to obtain any further debt financing, and the Tribeca Note Facility ($10 million) must repaid on 2 October 2020 unless Tribeca agrees to an extension of it on terms acceptable to the Company (see the section immediately below for a further discussion of the risks associated with this facility). Were the Company able to secure further debt financing, it would likely be required by the lender to accept negative pledges, covenants and other restrictions on its operating activities. The Company’s day to day operations (being the supply of administrative services and support to group companies), are unlikely to generate sufficient cash flow to meet the Company’s operating and capital expenditure needs in the near or medium

Page 54 of 86

Prospectus

terms. Meanwhile the Company’s ability to raise further equity financing is very sensitive to negative market sentiment.

As at the date of this Prospectus the global economic outlook will make it challenging for the Company to raise new equity capital in the near future. Of particular note from the perspective of the Company’s ability to raise future capital (either equity or debt), is the uncertainty arising from the spread of the COVID-19 virus and the reaction of both governments and financial markets to what has been declared a pandemic by the World Health Organisation[7] . Further the Company also notes that to the extent that the Company can raise further additional equity, that financing will dilute existing Shareholders.

Accordingly, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to secure additional funding on terms favourable to the Company. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as required, it will be unable to continue to fund its existing projects, take part in capital raisings undertaken by its daughter entities, or take advantage of opportunities as they arise. Further, without additional funding the Company may not have sufficient working capital to be able to meet day to day expenses as and when needed.

(b)

Tribeca Convertible Note Facility

The Company has the Tribeca Note Facility with Tribeca. Currently, the Tribeca Note Facility is fully drawn to $10,000,000 and the Company is fully compliant with the terms of the Tribeca Note Facility. Whilst the Company has been in discussions with Tribeca in respect of the Tribeca Note Facility, no assurance can be given that the Company will secure an extension of existing funding or any further funding under the Tribeca Note Facility on terms acceptable to the Company. The Tribeca Note Facility is scheduled to mature on 2 October 2020 unless there is an agreement to extend it.

(c) Armour Notes– poor demand impacting on ability to dispose of at full value

The Company is contemplating the possible sale of some or all of its holding of Armour Notes with a face value of $4.55m should it need to do so in order to fund ongoing operations. The Company has included the full value of those Armour Notes in its balance sheet as a non-current asset. However as noted above, at the date of this Prospectus the global economy (particularly in light of the uncertainty arising from the spread of the COVID-19) is facing significant challenges.

While the Company is hopeful of realising the Armour Notes as and when needed for their full face value, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to find a buyer for all or any of those Armour Notes at their full face value or at all. If the Company is unable to realise those Armour Notes at or near their full face value, this may have a significant impact on the Company’s continuing ability to fund its existing projects, take part in capital raisings undertaken by its daughter entities, or take advantage of opportunities as they arise. Further, without additional funding the Company may not have sufficient working capital to be able to meet day to day expenses as and when needed.

Prospectus

(d) Uganda Oil

  • (1) Pursuant to the terms of the Deed of Indemnity and Guarantee, the Company is indemnifying Armour Energy for 83.18% of the Ugandan Licence Liability. In the event that Armour Energy (or if the Ugandan Licence has been transferred to Armour Uganda, then Armour Uganda) does not meet the Second Exploration Period Minimum Work Program by 13 September 2021, the Ugandan Licence Liability would be approximately US$7.5 million. In these circumstances the Company would be liable to Armour Energy for approximately US$6,238,500 (being 83.18% of the Ugandan Licence Liability). Given the volatility in foreign exchange markets is not possible to state what that liability would be in Australian dollars as at the date of this Prospectus.

  • (2) Further pursuant to the terms of the Uganda Project Letter Agreement, Armour Energy would likely be looking to the Company to fund the Second Exploration Period Minimum Work Program, or at least 83.18% of it. It is likely the cost of completion of this Work Program would be significantly greater than the Ugandan Licence Liability. However, the markets for oil and gas are currently (and in general) volatile. Oil and gas prices are a direct function of global demand, and the cost and availability of contractors to carry out exploration drilling programs, are a reflection of those oil and gas prices. Accordingly, it is not possible currently to state what that liability would be as at the date of this Prospectus.

  • (3) While the Company is hopeful that negotiations with the Ugandan Government will be fruitful, if the Ugandan Government does not agree to a Uganda Licence Performance Guarantee of a lesser amount than US$990,000, Armour Energy will look to the Company to fund at least US$823,482 (being 83.18% of US$990,000). Given the volatility in foreign exchange markets is not possible to state what that liability would be in Australian dollars as at the date of this Prospectus.

  • (4) The Company understands that Armour wrote to:

  • the PAU (in response to a letter from the PAU on 25 March 2020), indicating that Armour would not be in a position to prepare an annual budget & work program for the calendar year 2020 as would normally be required by the Regulations, until such time as it had results from the 2D Seismic Survey; and

  • the Minister on 9 April 2020 invoking the force majeure provisions under section 188 of the Act and the PSA, in respect of all its obligations under the PSA generally, and its obligations to complete the 2D Seismic Survey in particular. The Event of Force Majeure (as defined in Armour’ letter) was the COVID 19 pandemic which has disrupted and in some cases ceased supply chains and international travel, thus making it impossible for Armour’s personnel to travel to Uganda.

The Company understands that Armour has not received a response from either the Minister or the PAU.

Page 56 of 86

Prospectus

(e) Impact of equity market conditions on value of the Company’s assets

A large percentage of the Company’s assets (by value), consists of listed securities, predominantly in daughter entities. The value of these listed securities can experience extreme price and volume fluctuations that are often unrelated to the operating performance of the issuers of those securities. In particular, the occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant market uncertainty in global equity markets. The effects of this pandemic are far reaching and uncertain outcomes may impact the value of the Company’s assets.

The market price of these assets may fall as well as rise. Those prices are subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general, as well as on the market for issued securities of companies in the same line of business as those companies in which the Company holds securities (being predominantly companies involved in resource exploration). To some degree, the Company relies on the ability to sell those securities should it have no other sufficient form of financing. If the market for those securities becomes illiquid, or their value drops significantly, this may adversely impact the Company’s ability to fund its on-going operational and capital expenditure needs.

(f) Environmental regulations and risks

National and local environmental laws and regulations affect nearly all of the operations of the Company. These laws and regulations set various standards regulating certain aspects of health and environmental quality, provide for penalties and other liabilities for the violation of such standards and establish, in certain circumstances, obligations to remediate current and former facilities and locations where operations are or were conducted. The Company will minimise the potential impact of these laws and regulations by taking steps to ensure compliance occurs and, where possible, by carrying appropriate insurance.

Significant liability could be imposed on the Company for damages, clean- up costs or penalties in the event of certain discharges into the environment, environmental damage caused by previous owners of properties acquired by the Company or non-compliance with environmental laws or regulations.

(g) Insurance arrangements

The Company intends to maintain insurance within ranges of coverage the Company believes to be consistent with industry practice and having regard to the nature of activities being conducted. No assurance however, can be given that the Company will be able to obtain such insurance coverage at reasonable rates or that any coverage it arranges will be adequate and available to cover any such claims.

(h) Exploration and evaluation risks

The Company has direct and indirect interests in numerous mining and exploration companies. Potential investors should understand that mineral exploration and development are high risk undertakings. Even if an apparently viable deposit is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.

Page 57 of 86

Prospectus

(i) Commodity prices

The Company’s prospects and perceived value will be influenced from time to time by the prevailing short-term prices of the commodities targeted in its exploration programs. Commodity prices fluctuate and are affected by factors including supply and demand for mineral products, hedge activities associated with commodity markets, the costs of production and general global economic and financial market conditions.

These factors may cause volatility which in turn, may affect the Company’s ability to finance its future exploration and/or bring Company’s to market.

(j) Tenement risks

The rights to resource tenements carry with them various obligations which the holder is required to comply with in order to ensure the continued good standing of the tenement and, specifically, obligations in regard to minimum expenditure levels and responsibilities in respect of the environment and safety. Failure to observe these requirements could prejudice the right to maintain title to a given area and result in government action to forfeit a permit or permits.

There is no guarantee that current or future exploration permit applications or existing permit renewals will be granted, that they will be granted without undue delay, or that the holder of the mineral tenements can economically comply with any conditions imposed on any granted exploration permits.

(k) Land access risk

Land access is critical for exploration and evaluation to succeed. In all cases the acquisition of prospective tenements is a competitive business, in which propriety knowledge or information is critical and the ability to negotiate satisfactory commercial arrangements with other parties is often essential.

Access to land for exploration purposes can be affected by land ownership, including private (freehold) land, pastoral lease and regulatory requirements within the jurisdictions where the Company, its subsidiaries or companies it holds interests in operate.

(l) Title Risk

The exploration and prospecting permits and claims in which either the Company, its subsidiaries or companies it holds interests in has now, or may, in the future, acquire an interest, are subject to applicable local laws and regulations. There is no guarantee than any such claims, applications or conversions in which the Company, its subsidiaries or companies it holds interests in has a current or potential interest will be granted.

All of the projects in which the Company, its subsidiaries or companies it holds interests in has an interest will be subject to application for claim renewal from time to time. Renewal of the term of each claim is subject to applicable legislation. If the claim is not renewed for any reason, the Company may suffer significant damage through loss of the opportunity to develop and discover any mineral resources on that claim.

(m) Contractual and joint venture risk

The Company’s ability to efficiently conduct its operations in a number of respects depends upon a third party product and service providers and

Page 58 of 86

Prospectus

contracts have, in some circumstances, been entered into by the Company and its subsidiaries in this regard. As in any contractual relationship the ability for the Company to ultimately receive benefits from these contracts are 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.

The Company may wish to develop its projects or future projects through joint venture arrangements, while a number of the Company’s projects are already the subject of joint venture arrangements. Any joint ventures entered into by, or interests in joint ventures assigned to the Company, could be affected by the failure or default of any of the joint venture participants.

Additionally, failure by contractors to perform in accordance with required timelines, may expose any project in which the Company its subsidiaries or companies it has an interest, to risk of forfeiture under applicable laws.

(n)

Sovereign Risk

Any future material adverse changes in government policies or legislation in Argentina, Australia, Ecuador, Solomon Islands, Uganda, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Chad, Gabon or any other jurisdiction in which the Company, its subsidiaries or companies it holds interests in undertakes or may undertake operations that affect foreign ownership, mineral exploration, development or mining activities, may affect the viability and profitability of the Company and its projects.

(o)

Operational risks and costs

Prosperity for the Company and its subsidiaries will depend largely upon an efficient and successful implementation of all the aspects of exploration, developments, business activities and management of commercial factors.

Exploration has been and will continue to be hampered on occasions by unforeseen weather events, accidents, unforeseen cost changes, environmental considerations, natural events and other incidents beyond the control of the Company.

By its nature, the business of exploration is a highly speculative endeavour and involves significant risks. The Company’s, its subsidiaries or companies it holds interests in performance depends on the successful exploration and/or acquisition of resources or reserves, competent operational management and efficient financial management. Further, the nature of exploration can sometimes result in industrial accidents and other incidents beyond the control of the Company.

There can be no assurances that the Company’s, its subsidiaries or companies it holds interests in exploration programs described in this Prospectus or those relating to any projects or tenements that the Company may acquire in the future, will result in the discovery of a significant mineral target. Even if a significant target is identified, there is no guarantee that it will be viable for economic exploitation. Ultimate success depends on the discovery and delineation of economically recoverable mineral resources, establishment of efficient exploration operations, obtaining necessary titles and access to projects, as well as government and other regulatory approvals.

Page 59 of 86

Prospectus

The exploration and mining activities of the Company, its subsidiaries or companies it holds interests in may be affected by a number of factors, including but not limited to geological conditions, seasonal weather patterns, technical difficulties and failures, continued availability of the necessary technical equipment, plant and appropriately skilled and experienced technicians, adverse changes in government policy or legislation and access to the required level of funding.

Management actions

The Directors of the Company will, to the best of their knowledge, experience and ability (in conjunction with their management) endeavour to anticipate, identify and manage the risks inherent in the activities of the Company, but without assuming any personal liability for same, with the aim of eliminating, avoiding and mitigating the impact of risks on the performance of the Company and its Securities.

However, there is no assurance that the Directors will be able to successfully avoid circumstances giving rise to an adverse effect on the assets, operations and ultimately the financial performance of the Company and the market price of its securities.

(q)

Government policy

Changes in relevant taxation, interest rates, other legal, legislative and administrative regimes, and Government policies in Uganda, Australia or any other jurisdiction in which the Company, its subsidiaries or companies it holds interests in undertakes or may undertake operations, may have an adverse effect on the assets, operations and ultimately the financial performance of the Company. These factors may ultimately affect the financial performance of the Company and the market price of its securities.

In addition to the normal level of income tax imposed on all industries, the Company its subsidiaries or companies it holds interests in may be required to pay government royalties, indirect taxes, GST and other imposts which generally relate to revenue or cash flows. Industry profitability can be affected by changes in government taxation policies.

Changing attitudes to environmental, land care, cultural heritage 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, its subsidiaries or companies it holds interests in exploration plans or, indeed, its rights and/or obligations with respect to the tenements.

(r)

Reliance on Key Personnel

The Company’s or its subsidiaries’ progress in pursuing its exploration and evaluation programmes within the time frames and within the costs structure as currently envisaged could be dramatically influenced by the loss of existing key personnel a failure to secure and retain additional key personnel as the Company’s exploration programme develops. The resulting impact from such loss would be dependent upon the quality and timing of the employee’s replacement.

Although the key personnel of the Company have a considerable amount of experience and have previously been successful in their pursuits of acquiring,

Page 60 of 86

Prospectus

exploring and evaluating mineral projects, there is no guarantee or assurance that they will be successful in their objectives pursuant to this Prospectus.

6.4 Speculative nature of Investment

The above list of risk factors is not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by Shareholders in the Company. The above factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the New Shares offered under this Prospectus.

Accordingly, the New Shares to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns, returns of capital or market value at any time. Shareholders should consider that an investment in the Company is highly speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for New Shares.

7.1 Rights and liabilities attaching to New Shares

The rights attaching to ownership of the New Shares (and the Shares issued upon the exercise of the New Options) are set out in the Company’s Constitution, a copy of which is available for inspection at the registered office of the Company during business hours. The following is a summary of the principal rights of holders of the New Shares, subject to any special rights attaching to any class of share at a future time. This summary is not exhaustive, nor does it constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of the Company’s Shareholders.

(a) Voting

At a general meeting of the Company on a show of hands, every member present in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative has one vote and upon a poll, every member present in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative has one vote for every Share held by them.

(b) Dividends

The New Shares will rank equally with all other issued Shares in the capital of the Company and will participate in dividend out of profits earned by the Company from time to time. Subject to the rights of holders of shares of any special preferential or qualified rights attaching thereto, the profits of the Company are divisible amongst the holders of Shares in proportion to the Shares held by them irrespective of the amount paid up or credited as paid up thereon. The Directors may from time to time pay to Shareholders such interim dividends as in their judgment the position of the Company justifies.

(c) Transfer of the Shares

Generally, the New Shares in the Company will be freely transferable, subject to satisfying the usual requirements of security transfers on the ASX. The Directors may decline to register any transfer of Shares but only where permitted to do so under its Constitution or the ASX Listing Rules.

Upon accepting the Entitlement to New Shares and paying the Application Monies, Eligible Shareholders will have no further liability to make payments to the Company in the event of the Company being wound up pursuant to the provisions of the Corporations Act.

(e) Future increases in Capital

Prospectus

majority of such holders or the written consent of the holders of at least three quarters of the ordinary Shares.

(g) General Meeting

  • (d) Holding statements : Holding statements will be issued for the New Options. Both the option holding statement and the notice of exercise are required to be duly completed and sent to the Company or the Company's Share Registry when exercising the New Options. If there is more than one New Option on a holding statement and prior to the expiry date those New Options are exercised in part, the Company will issue another holding statement for the balance of the options held and not yet exercised.

  • (e) Exercise Price : The price for exercise of each New Option is $0.084 per Option.

  • (f) Dividends : The New Option holders do not participate in any dividends unless the New Options are exercised and the resultant Shares of the Company are issued prior to the record date to determine entitlement to dividends.

The Company does not intend to seek listing of the New Options on ASX. The Company shall apply for listing of the resultant Shares issued upon exercise of any New Option on the ASX.

  • (h) Transfer : The New Options may be transferred at any time.

  • (i) Reconstruction : In the event of any reconstruction (including consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return) of the issued capital of the Company:

  • (2) Subject to the provisions with respect to round of entitlements as sanctioned by a meeting of Shareholders of the Company approving a reconstruction of capital, in all other respects the terms for the exercise of the New Options will remain unchanged;

  • (j) Pro rata issue : If there is a pro rata issue (except a bonus issue), the Exercise Price of the New Option may be reduced according to the following formula.

S = the subscription price for a security under the pro rata issue;

D = dividend due but not yet paid on the existing underlying securities (except those to be issued under the pro rata issue;

N = the number of securities with rights or entitlement that must be held to receive a right to one new security.

  • (k) Bonus Issue : If there is a bonus issue to the holder of Shares, the number of Shares over which the New Option is exercisable may be increased by the number of Shares which the option holder would have received if the New Option had been exercised before the record date for the bonus issue.

  • (l) Change of terms : The terms of the New Options shall only be changed if holders (whose votes are not to be disregarded) of Shares approve of such a change.

8.10 Limitation on foreign ownership and acquiring interests in Australian land corporations

  • (a) A foreign person acquiring a substantial interest in an Australian entity

The only limitations under Australian law on the rights of non-Australian residents to hold or vote the Shares of an Australian company are set forth in the Foreign Acquisitions and Takeovers Act (the FATA ). The FATA regulates acquisitions giving rise to ownership of substantial amounts of a company’s shares.

Notification to the Treasurer is required under section 47(2)(b) of the FATA if a foreign person acquires a Substantial Interest in the Company (the Company being an “Australian entity” as defined in section 4 of the FATA).

A foreign person (as defined in section 4 of the FATA) is:

  • (1) an individual not ordinarily resident in Australia; or

  • (2) a corporation in which an individual not ordinarily resident in Australia, a foreign corporation or a foreign government holds a substantial interest; or

  • (3) a corporation in which 2 or more persons, each of whom is an individual not ordinarily resident in Australia, a foreign corporation or a foreign government, hold an aggregate substantial interest; or

  • (4) the trustee of a trust in which an individual not ordinarily resident in Australia, a foreign corporation or a foreign government holds a substantial interest; or

  • (5) the trustee of a trust in which 2 or more persons, each of whom is an individual not ordinarily resident in Australia, a foreign corporation or a foreign government, hold an aggregate substantial interest; or

  • (6) a foreign government; or

  • (7) any other person, or any other person that meets the conditions, prescribed by the regulations.

Under section 4 of the FATA a Substantial Interest is if a person holds an interest of at least 20% in the entity.

The Notification process requires a foreign person wishing to acquire a Substantial Interest to give notice in the prescribed form for approval thereof to the Australian Treasurer and receiving such approval or receiving no response within the prescribed time under the FATA after such application was made ( Approval ).

Accordingly, the Company will not issue any New Shares or New Options to a foreign person, if as a result of that issue the foreign person would acquire a Substantial Interest in the Company, unless the foreign person provides satisfactory evidence to the Company that the foreign person has received the

Page 73 of 86

Prospectus

necessary Approval. The allocation policy to be applied by the Directors to the allocation Additional New Shares from any Shortfall reflects this.

  • (b)

A foreign person acquiring an interest in an Australian land Corporation

The FATA also regulates the acquisition by a foreign person of an interest in Australian land , which includes acquisition of any interest in an Australian land corporation .

However, under Regulation 37(2) of the Foreign Acquisitions & Takeovers Regulations (the Regs ) provides an exemption in the case of an acquisition of an interest in Australian land by a foreign person if all of the following apply:

  • (1) the acquisition is of an interest in Australian land that is an acquisition of an interest in shares or units in a land entity;

  • (2) the land entity is or will be listed for quotation in the official list of a stock exchange (whether or not in Australia);

  • (3) after the acquisition, the foreign person, alone or together with one or more associates, holds an interest of less than 10% in the land entity; and

  • (4) the foreign person is not in a position:

  • to influence or participate in the central management and control of the land entity; or

  • to influence, participate in or determine the policy of the land entity.

Under Regulation 5 a land entity means an agricultural land corporation, an agricultural land trust, an Australian land corporation or an Australian land trust. The Constitution of the Company contains no limitations on a foreign person’s right to hold or vote the Company’s Shares.

8.11 Takeover Provisions

Section 606 of the Corporations Act prohibits the acquisition of a Relevant Interest in voting shares if, because of that acquisition, a person's voting power in the company:

  • (a) increases from under 20% to over 20%; or

  • (b) increases from a starting point that is above 20%, and below 90%.

A person's "voting power" in a body is determined in accordance with section 610 of the Corporations Act. A person's voting power includes the total number of votes attached to all of the voting shares in the company in which that person or an associate has a Relevant Interest. For these purposes “associate" is defined in section 12 of the Corporations Act.

There are a number of exceptions to the prohibition in s606 which are set out in section 611. The most relevant of these for the purpose of the Offer are:

  • (a) an acquisition that results from a rights issue, including an acquisition by an underwriter or sub underwriter of that rights issue (see item 10 of section 611).

Prospectus

However, this exception will not, in the context of the Offer, extend to the allocation and allotment of New Shares from the Shortfall other than to the Underwriters. The allocation policy to be applied by the Directors to the allocation of Additional New Shares from any Shortfall reflects this; and

  • (b) an acquisition that results from the issue of securities to an underwriter of an offer of securities made pursuant to a disclosure document (such as this Prospectus) (see item 13 of section 611).

8.12 Subsequent events

  • (a) ASIC query as to the Company’s accounting treatment of its investment in SolGold and Aus Tin Mining

  • (1) On 31 October 2019, the Company received a letter from the ASIC as part of its financial reporting surveillance program querying the Company’s accounting for its investments in SolGold plc and Aus Tin Mining.

  • (2) Specifically, ASIC is concerned that the Company accounts for its equity interest in each of SolGold and Aus Tin Mining at fair value . Rather in ASIC’s view, the Company should be accounting for its equity interest in each of those companies on the basis of equity accounting .

  • (3) The Company responded to the queries raised by ASIC reaffirming its view that it believes that the accounting basis adopted for its investments in SolGold and Aus Tin Mining is appropriate.

  • (4) On 2 March 2020, the Company received a letter from ASIC as a “final response” to the Company’s letter stating that ASIC continues to disagree with the Company and that the Company should change its accounting treatment for its investments in SolGold and Aus Tin Mining.

  • (5) The Company wrote to ASIC again on 11 March 2020, engaged in a telephone conference with ASIC on 12 March 2020, and then on 26 March 2020 wrote to ASIC again enclosing an independent thirdparty expert’s opinion to ASIC in support of the Company’s position.

  • (6) The Company received a further letter from ASIC on 23 April 2020 which concluded with a requirement from ASIC that the Company “change the accounting treatment of its equity interest in [SolGold plc]” and providing further that “[t]the adjustment should be treated as a prior period error in the Company’s financial report for the year ending 30 June 2020.”

(7) Notwithstanding ASIC’s letter dated 23 April 2020, the Company strongly disagrees with the view formed by ASIC. The Company continues to believe that this matter is one that requires significant professional judgement, and that the Company’s view is consistent with the independent professional advice that it has received. As at the date of this Prospectus the Company is still considering its response to ASIC’s letter and the course of action which ASIC wishes the Company to take.
