EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.

1. RESOLUTIONS 1 TO 6 – PLACEMENT

1.1 Background

On 19 May 2020, the Company announced that it had undertaken a placement to raise approximately $500,000 through the issue of Shares to professional and sophisticated investors, with the funds to be used for RC drilling of nine gold and VMS targets at Illaara and Rocky Dam.

In addition, the Directors and employees of the Company are also seeking permission to participate in the Placement, by subscribing for $70,000.

Together, this capital raising is referred to as the Placement .

Resolutions 1 to 6 seek the following approvals for the Placement:

  • (a) ratify the issue of 107,500,000 Shares to the unrelated sophisticated and professional investors in the Placement (Resolution 1);

  • (b) seek approval for each of the Directors to participate in the Placement (Resolutions 2 to 5); and

  • (c) seek approval for one of the employees of the Company to participate in the Placement (Resolution 6).

The Company engaged the services of Shaw and Partners ( Broker ) (AFSL 236048), to manage the Placement. The Company has agreed to pay the Broker a fee of 6% of the funds raised under the Placement. In addition, Resolution 9 seeks approval for the ratification of 40,000,000 Options to the Broker as part of a 12 month Corporate Mandate.

1.2 Resolution 1 – Ratification of 107,500,000 Placement Shares

Broadly speaking, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that 12 month period.

The issue of the Shares under the Placement does not fit within any of these exceptions and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date of issue of the 107,500,000 Placement Shares the subject of Resolution 1.

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

9

5042-01/2419222_4

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Shares.

If Resolution 1 is passed, the 107,500,000 Placement Shares already issued will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the those Shares.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the 107,500,000 Placement Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities that the Company can issue under Listing Rule 7.1 without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of those Shares.

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 1:

  • (a) the 107,500,000 Placement Shares were issued to professional and sophisticated investors who are clients of Shaw and Partners. The recipients were identified through a bookbuild process, which involved Shaw and Partners[insert name of lead manager] seeking expressions of interest to participate in the capital raising from non-related parties of the Company. None of the recipients are related parties of the Company;

  • (b) 107,500,000 Shares were issued and the Shares issued were all fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares;

  • (c) the 107,500,000 were issued on 25 May 2020;

  • (d) the issue price was $0.004 per Share. The Company has not and will not receive any other consideration for the issue of those Shares;

  • (e) the purpose of the issue of the Placement Shares was to raise $430,000, which will be applied towards RC drilling of nine gold and VMS targets at Illaara and Rocky Dam; and

  • (f) the Shares were not issued under an agreement; and

  • (g) a voting exclusion statement is included in Resolution 1 of the Notice.

1.3 Resolution 2 to 5 – Approval for Directors to participate in the Placement

For a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:

  • (a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and

  • (b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,

unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.

10

5042-01/2419222_4

The participation of the Directors in the Placement involves the granting of a financial benefit and all the Directors are related parties of the Company by virtue of their positions in the Company.

In addition, ASX Listing Rule 10.11 also requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a related party, or a person whose relationship with the entity or a related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained unless an exception in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 applies.

As the Shares are proposed to be issued to all of the Directors, the Directors are unable to form a quorum to consider whether one of the exceptions set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act applies to the issue of the Shares. Accordingly, Shareholder approval for the issue of the Shares to the Related Parties is sought in accordance with Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed company must not issue or agree to issue equity securities to:

  • 10.11.1 a related party;

  • 10.11.2 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the company;

  • 10.11.3 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (10%+) holder in the company and who has nominated a director to the board of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so;

  • 10.11.4 an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3; or

  • 10.11.5 a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders,

unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.

The issue of Shares falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.

Resolutions 2 to 5 seek the required Shareholder approval for the issue of the Shares under and for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.11.

If Resolutions 2 to 5 are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Shares to the Related Parties within one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules) and enable them to participate in the Placement. As approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Shares (because approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11), the issue of the Shares will not use up any of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.

If Resolutions 2 to 5 are not passed, the Directors will not be able to participate in the Placement.

11

5042-01/2419222_4

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 10.13 and section 219 of the Corporations Act, the following information is provided in relation to Resolutions 2 to 5:

  • (a) the Shares will be issued to the following persons:

  • (i) Paul Chapman (or their nominee) pursuant to Resolution 2;

  • (ii) Dean Tuck (or their nominee) pursuant to Resolution 3;

  • (iii) Ian Gordon (or their nominee) pursuant to Resolution 4; and

  • (iv) Paul Payne (or their nominee) pursuant to Resolution 5,

1.4 Resolution 6 – Approval to issue Shares to employee Oliver Judd in the Placement

Resolution 6 seeks approval for the Company to issue Shares to an employee of the Company, Mr Oliver Judd (or his nominee) to participate in the Placement.

The proposed issue of the Shares to Mr Judd (or his nominee) does not fit within any of these exceptions. While the issue does not exceed the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 and can therefore be made without breaching that rule, the Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 so that it does not use up any of its 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 6 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Shares. In addition, the issue of the Shares will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 6 is not passed, the issue of the Shares can still proceed but it will reduce, to that extent, the Company’s capacity to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for 12 months following the issue.

Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of the Shares.

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 6:

  • (a) the Shares will be issued to Mr Oliver Judd (or his nominee), an employee of the Company, who is not a related part of the Company;

  • (b) the maximum number of Shares to be issued is 2,500,000 Shares. The Shares issued will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares;

  • (c) the Shares will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules) and it is intended that issue of the Shares will occur on the same date;

  • (d) the issue price of the Shares will be $0.004 per Share. The Company will not receive any other consideration for the issue of the Shares;

  • (e) the purpose of the issue of the Shares is to raise capital, and to enable the employee to participate in the Placement. The funds will be used for the same purpose as all other funds raised under the Placement;

  • (f) a voting exclusion statement is included in Resolution 6 of the Notice.

2. RESOLUTIONS 7 AND – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF SHARES ISSUED FOR ACQUISITIONS

2.1 General

On 14 August 2019, the Company announced the acquisition of the Wombarella tenement (E04/2560) located in the West Kimberley.

Completion of the acquisition was subject to a number of conditions including the issue of 16,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares to the vendors. The 16,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares were issued on 17 January 2020 completing the acquisition.

On 6 December 2019, Dreadnought announced the acquisition of Metzke’s Find (E29/1050) as part of the consolidation of the Illaara Greenstone Belt.

Completion of the acquisition was subject to a number of conditions including the issue of 14,500,000 fully paid ordinary shares to the vendors. The 14,500,000 fully paid ordinary shares were issued on 17 January 2020 completing the acquisition.

Resolutions 7 and 8 seek approval to ratify the issue of Shares issued under these two acquisitions.

A summary of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 1.2 above.

The issue of the Shares for these two acquisitions do not fit within any of these exceptions and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Shares.

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Shares.

Resolutions 7 and 8 seek Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Shares for these two acquisitions.

If Resolutions 7 and/or 8 are passed, the Shares pursuant to that Resolution will be excluded in calculating the Company’s15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the those Shares.

If Resolutions 7 and/or 8 are not passed, the Shares under that Resolution will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Shares.

3. RESOLUTION 9 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF BROKER OPTIONS – LISTING RULE 7.1

3.1 General

On 25 May 2020 the Company issued 40,000,000 Unlisted Options to Shaw and Partners and their respective nominees with a 3-year term to expiry, exercisable at $0.004 each, in lieu of a 12 month Corporate Mandate.

A summary of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Section 1.2 above.

The issue of the Options does not fit within any of these exceptions and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Options.

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Options.

Resolution 9 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Options.

17

5042-01/2419222_4

If Resolution 9 is passed, the Options will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Options.

If Resolution 9 is not passed, the Options will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Options.

3.2 Technical information for Resolution 9

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 9:

  • (e) the purpose of the issue was to meet the Company’s commitments under the terms of the 12 month Corporate Mandate entered into and in respect of the Placement;
