Explanatory Memorandum
Recommendation
The Directors (with Mr Nolan abstaining) recommend that you vote in favour of this Ordinary Resolution.
RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL OF EMPLOYEE SHARE AND OPTION PLAN
Pursuant to Resolution 3, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval for the continued issue of securities under the Company’s Employee Share and Option Plan (the ESOP ) as an exception under Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 9(b) which would enable securities issued under the ESOP over the next three (3) years to be excluded from the calculation of the number of securities issued for the purposes of ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.
The Company previously adopted the ESOP at the 2015 AGM to utilise it as a means of rewarding and incentivising its key employees.
A summary of the terms of the ESOP are set out in Annexure A to this Explanatory Memorandum.
ASX Listing Rules
Subject to certain exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 restricts a listed company from issuing or agreeing to issue Equity Securities in any 12 month period equivalent in number to more than 15% of the company’s ordinary securities on issue, without the approval of its shareholders.
As a result, any issue of securities by the Company to eligible employees under the ESOP would reduce the Company’s 15% capacity to issue Shares under Listing Rule 7.1.
Exception 9 of Listing Rule 7.2 however, allows the Company to issue securities under the ESOP without the issue of such securities being counted towards the Company’s 15% issue capacity under Listing Rule 7.1, where Shareholders have approved the issue of securities under the ESOP as an exception to Listing Rule 7.1, within three (3) years prior to the issue of the securities. Resolution 3 is being put to Shareholders for this purpose and will allow the Company to utilise Exception 9 of Listing Rule 7.2 for three (3) years from the date of the Resolution being passed.
Information for Shareholders
In accordance with Exception 9 of Listing Rule 7.2, the Company advises as follows:
-
there have been 10,000,000 unlisted Options exercisable at $0.0125 issued under the ESOP since the last approval; and
-
a summary of the key terms of the ESOP are set out in Annexure A.
Further Considerations
The Company believes that it will derive a significant benefit by incentivising its senior management and key employees through the issue of securities under the ESOP. Additionally, the Company believes it to be in the best interests of the Company to preserve the maximum commercial flexibility to issue Equity Securities that is afforded to it by Listing Rule 7.1.
The Directors recommend that you vote in favour of this Ordinary Resolution.

Explanatory Memorandum
RESOLUTION 4 – APPROVAL OF PERFORMANCE RIGHTS PLAN
Pursuant to Resolution 4, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval for the continued issue of securities under the Company’s Performance Rights Plan ( Rights Plan ) as an exception under Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 9(b) which would enable securities issued under the Rights Plan over the next three (3) years to be excluded from the calculation of the number of securities issued for the purposes of ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.
The Company previously adopted the Rights Plan at the 2015 AGM to provide incentives to the eligible participants of the Company, including Directors of the Company who hold a salaried employment or office in the Company, and to recognise their contribution to the Company’s success. Under the Company’s current circumstances the Directors consider that the use of Performance Rights are a cost effective and efficient incentive for the Company as opposed to relying solely on alternative forms of incentives such as the issue of options, cash bonuses or increased remuneration. To enable the Company to secure and retain key employees who can assist the Company in achieving its objectives, it is necessary to provide remuneration and incentives to such personnel. The Rights Plan is designed to achieve this objective by encouraging long term employment with the Company and continued improvement in performance over time and encouraging personnel to acquire and retain an interest in the Company.
The Rights Plan provides for the issue of Performance Rights which, upon a determination by the Board that performance conditions attached to the Performance Rights have been met, will result in the issue of one ordinary share in the Company for each Performance Right granted.
A summary of the terms of the Rights Plan are set out in Annexure B to this Explanatory Memorandum.
ASX Listing Rules
Subject to certain exceptions, ASX Listing Rule 7.1 restricts a listed company from issuing or agreeing to issue Equity Securities in any 12 month period equivalent in number to more than 15% of its ordinary securities on issue, without the approval of its shareholders.
As a result, any issue of securities by the Company to eligible employees under the Rights Plan would reduce the Company’s 15% capacity to issue Shares under Listing Rule 7.1.
Exception 9 of Listing Rule 7.2 however, allows the Company to issue securities under the Performance Rights Plan without the issue of such securities being counted towards the Company’s 15% issue capacity under Listing Rule 7.1, where Shareholders have approved the issue of securities under the Performance Rights Plan as an exception to Listing Rule 7.1, within three (3) years prior to the issue of the securities. Resolution 4 is being put to Shareholders for this purpose and will allow the Company to utilise Exception 9 of Listing Rule 7.2 for three (3) years from the date of the Resolution being passed.
Information for shareholders
In accordance with Exception 9 of Listing Rule 7.2, the Company advises as follows:
-
there have been 30,000,000 Performance Rights issued under the Rights Plan since the last approval; and
-
a summary of the key terms of the Performance Rights Plan are set out in Annexure B.
Further Considerations
The Company believes that it will derive a significant benefit by incentivising its senior management and key employees through the issue of Performance Rights under the Rights Plan. Additionally, the Company believes it to be in the best interests of the Company to preserve the maximum commercial flexibility to issue Equity Securities that is afforded to it by ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
The Directors recommend that you vote in favour of this Ordinary Resolution.

Explanatory Memorandum
RESOLUTIONS 5, 6, 7 & 8 – ISSUE OF CONVERTIBLE REDEEMABLE PREFERENCE SHARES AND CAPITAL RAISING
Introduction
The Company has entered into an agreement with Eurotin Inc. (TSX-V” TIN) ( Eurotin ) to acquire a 100% interest in the Oropesa Tin Project ( Oropesa ) located in Spain ( Transaction ). This will be accomplished by the acquisition by the Company of all of the shares in Minas De Estanto De Espana S.L.U ( Mespa ), a wholly owned subsidiary of Eurotin and the holder of the 100% interest in Oropesa. The Company made an announcement regarding the HOA and the Transaction on 31 July 2018. The Transaction is to be conducted by way of plan of arrangement under Canadian laws ( Plan of Arrangement ) pursuant to an arrangement agreement ( Arrangement Agreement ).
Upon completion of the Transaction, the Company will acquire a 100% interest in the current issued capital of Mespa, which owns Oropesa, by the issue of 1,000,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares in the Company ( Consideration Shares ) in consideration for the transfer of all Mespa shares to the Company. The Consideration Shares are ultimately to be held by Eurotin shareholders on a pro rata basis. The Company intends to complete the issue of the Consideration Shares by issuing to Eurotin 1,000,000,000 convertible redeemable preference shares ( CRPS ), with Eurotin then promptly dispensing these CRPS to its shareholders via an in specie distribution as a return of capital) ( Distribution ) pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement. The issue of the CRPS will occur on the date on which all required approvals to the Transaction are obtained (other than the Spanish Regional Mining Authority Approval discussed below) and all other conditions are satisfied or waived ( Interim Completion ). After issue to Eurotin, the CRPS will be distributed in specie by Eurotin pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement to each of the shareholders of Eurotin on a pro rata basis within 10 business days following issue of the CRPS.
As part of the Arrangement Agreement, an existing loan between Mespa and Mark Wellings (a director and significant shareholder of Eurotin) ( Wellings Loan ) is required to be formally documented to the satisfaction of the Company. The Wellings Loan will be secured by the issue of a convertible debenture ( Debenture ), which may be converted into Shares at the election of Mark Wellings and with the Company’s prior written consent, or at Mark Wellings’ election at the end of its maturity period. The Company has the ability to offset certain claims it may have under the Arrangement Agreement against any money owing under the Wellings Loan or the Debenture.
Once Interim Completion occurs, ELT will have certain rights to direct the activities of Mespa and will have certain obligations regarding contributing to the expenditure of Mespa, however, Eurotin will continue to remain the legal and beneficial owner of Mespa at the Interim Completion. As soon as the Spanish Mining Authority Approval is obtained, the transfer of the Mespa shares to ELT will occur ( Final Completion ). The CRPS will convert into ordinary shares in the Company within 10 business days of the Spanish Regional Mining Authority Approval being obtained and Final Completion occurring.
This structure ensures that the Company can effect the Interim Completion promptly, however, if for any reason the Spanish Regional Mining Authority Approval is not received or Final Completion does not occur prior to 12 months following the Distribution of CRPS, the Transaction will be at an end and the Company will then redeem the CRPS at their face value (being a nominal amount of $0.0000001 per CRPS).
Completion of the Transaction pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement will take place in two stages, and is subject to the conditions precedent set out below. The conditions to Interim Completion must be satisfied or waived and Interim Completion must occur on or before 31 December 2018 (or such later date as agreed between the parties) and the conditions to Final Completion must be satisfied or waived and Final Completion must occur on or before the date which is 12 months after distribution of the CRPS to Eurotin Shareholders.

-
an application for a waiver from Chapter 7 of the Listing Rules to allow the Debenture to be issued more than 3 months after the date of the Meeting - in the event this waiver is not granted, if the Debenture is issued more than 3 months after the date of the Meeting it will need to be issued in reliance on the Company’s capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 or alternatively further Shareholder approval would be required;

Elementos Limited
Page 15
Explanatory Memorandum
ASX confirms to the Company that re-compliance with Chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules is not required.
Details of Consideration Shares
The Consideration Shares comprise 1,000,000,000 CRPS.
The terms of the CRPS are set out in Annexure C to this Explanatory Memorandum.
The Company will initially issue CRPS at the Interim Completion as consideration, provided such shares are distributed to Eurotin shareholders and automatically convert to ordinary shares upon Final Completion occurring. Eurotin will distribute the CRPS via an in specie distribution as a return of capital to its shareholders. The conversion of CRPS will occur within 10 business days after the Spanish Regional Mining Authority Approval is obtained and Final Completion occurs.
Each share arising from conversion of the CRPS will rank pari passu with all other fully paid shares on issue, except that such shares arising from conversion of CRPS will not be entitled to any dividend or any other distribution or entitlement that has been declared or determined but not paid as at the date of conversion. If for any reason the Spanish Regional Mining Authority Approval is not received or Final Completion does not occur prior to 12 months following the Distribution of CRPS, the Transaction will be at an end and the Company will then redeem the CRPS at their face value (being a nominal amount of $0.0000001 per CRPS).
Distribution to Eurotin shareholders
Whilst the Consideration Shares will be issued to Eurotin, it is a condition of the Arrangement Agreement that Eurotin:
-
(a) as soon as practicable after entry of the Arrangement Agreement, seek regulatory approvals for, and despatch a notice of meeting of shareholders to consider the necessary resolutions to effect, the Arrangement Agreement ( Eurotin Approval ); and
-
(b) as soon as practicable after the Arrangement Agreement becomes unconditional, prepare an information circular for the proposal of the Arrangement Agreement to be despatched to the Arrangement Agreement participants ( Eurotin Circular );
Subject to the appropriate approvals being obtained and completion occurring, the in specie distribution of the Consideration Shares must occur within 10 business days after issue of the CRPS to Eurotin (which will occur at Interim Completion).
If the shareholders of Eurotin do not approve the Distribution and the Plan of Arrangement, then the Company can terminate the Arrangement Agreement and the CRPS will not be issued.
If the CRPS are issued to Eurotin on Interim Completion of the Arrangement Agreement and the Distribution of the CRPS to Eurotin shareholders does not occur as contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement, then the Company can redeem the CRPS for a face value of $0.0000001 per CRPS.
The Company anticipates that the meeting of Eurotin shareholders will be held on or about 5 December 2018.
The Arrangement Agreement also requires Eurotin to deliver to the Company duly executed ASX escrow agreements for any ASX-imposed escrow of the Consideration Shares. The Company has applied for a waiver from Chapter 9 of the Listing Rules to allow the Consideration Shares issued to Eurotin shareholders other than the Consideration Shares issued to certain related parties of the
Elementos Limited
Page 16
Explanatory Memorandum
Company and Eurotin (the Restricted Holders ) to be free from any escrow restrictions. The Restricted Holders must deliver a duly executed ASX escrow agreements in respect of Consideration Shares held by them which applies for a period of 12 months from the date of issue of the new Shares. If the waiver that has been applied for by Elementos is not granted, all Eurotin shareholders would be required to enter ASX escrow agreements as a condition to Interim Completion.
Placement
As announced by the Company on 31 July 2018, the Company has undertaken a capital raising to support the completion of the Transaction (and for general working capital processes). The Company has received binding commitments for a private placement to raise $1.2 million at $0.006 per share ( Placement ). The Placement will comprise up to 200 million shares issued in two tranches to unrelated sophisticated investors using the Company’s current placement capacity under the Listing Rules ( Placement Shares ). Lions Bay Capital ( Lions Bay ) are being paid a fee of 100 million unlisted Company options (expiring 30 June 2020 exercisable at $0.007) ( Lions Bay Options ) for arranging the Placement and general corporate advisory services related with the acquisition of the Oropesa project. The Placement Shares and Lions Bay Options were issued, or will be issued, in two tranches as follows:
-
(a) 150,000,000 Placement Shares and 75,000,000 Lions Bay Options on or about 26 October 2018; and
-
(b) 50,000,000 Placement Shares and 25,000,000 Lions Bay Options on or about 9 November 2018.
Ratification of the issue of the Placement Shares and Lions Bay Options is the subject of Resolutions 5 & 6.
Debenture
As noted above, to secure the Wellings Loan the Company proposes to issue to Mark Wellings the Debenture. The Debenture will be issued at Final Completion, will have a face value of CAD$1,000,000 (AUD$1,080,000, assuming a conversion rate of 1.08 AUD to 1 CAD), will accrue interest at a rate for 5% per annum (non-compounding) and can be converted into Shares at the election of Mark Wellings with the prior written consent of the Company. The conversion price will be equal to the higher of AUD$0.004 ( Floor Price ) or the volume weighted average price at which Shares have traded on the ASX for the 20 Trading Days prior to the date of issue of the relevant conversion notice.
While the number of Shares that may be issued on conversion of the Debenture is not known, as the conversion price will depend on the date on which conversion takes place, the conversion price will not be less than AUD$0.004 and the maximum amount that may be converted into shares (being $1,188,000, the initial face price of the Debenture and all accrued interest) is known. As such, the maximum number of Shares than may be issued can be determined (with an assumed conversion rate of 1.08 AUD to 1 CAD), which will be 297,000,000 Shares ( Debenture Shares ). Under the terms of the Debenture, no conversion is permitted that would result in a breach of the takeover rules under the Corporations Act. Further details of the terms of the Convertible Debenture are set out in the Annexure D.

Mark Wellings, a director and largest shareholder of Eurotin, does not presently hold any Shares in the Company. However, on Completion Mark Wellings will hold 400,905,050 Shares in the Company, representing 15.8% of the total Shares on issue. In addition, under the terms of the Wellings Loan and the Debenture, Mark Wellings may be issued up to a further 297,000,000 Debenture Shares in the Company if the Debenture were to be fully converted at the Floor Price and based on an exchange rate of 1.08 AUD to 1 CAD, representing 10.48% of the total Shares then on issue (assuming no other shares in the Company are issued, other than the Consideration Shares and the Placement Shares). If
Elementos Limited

Explanatory Memorandum
the Debenture is not converted, or is converted for a higher conversion price, this will result in a lesser number of Shares which may be issued, and in such a case the potential increase in holding of Mark Wellings will be less than that set out here. Under the terms of the Debenture, no conversion is permitted that would result in a breach of the Takeover provisions of the Corporations Act.
Details regarding Eurotin and Mespa
The Company has entered into the Arrangement Agreement so that it can acquire a 100% of the current issued shares in Mespa, the holder of Oropesa.
Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, the Company will purchase a Eurotin Spanish subsidiary, Mespa, that owns 100% of Oropesa by acquiring all of the current issued and outstanding common shares in Mespa.
Eurotin is a TSV-X-listed company (TSX-V” TIN) and further details regarding Oropesa can be obtained from material released to the TSV-X by Eurotin.
The Company believes Oropesa is one of the best undeveloped tin resources in the Western World. Attractions include, a large JORC 2012 compliant Mineral Resource based on more than 54,000 metres of drilling, open-cut mining potential, simple metallurgy and processing, access to development infrastructure, and support from local stakeholders. A Feasibility Study is in progress, Environmental Studies complete and a Mining Licence Application lodged.
The acquisition represents an excellent strategic fit with the organisations core capability of developing tin projects, a fundamental driver of Eurotin’s decision to partner with Elementos to deliver the Oropesa project.
Oropesa is a near-term development project and cash flow generation opportunity, being acquired at a very attractive valuation. The Company believes it will create significant share value-uplift potential for shareholders as the project is well advanced towards development.
(Please see the Company’s ASX announcement “Acquisition of the Oropesa Tin Project” dated 31 July 2018 and 22 October 2018 for further information on Oropesa, Mespa and Eurotin and the terms of the Arrangement Agreement).

RESOLUTION 7: ISSUE OF CONVERTIBLE REDEEMABLE PREFERENCE SHARES AND DEBENTURE - LISTING RULE 7.1
Introduction
Resolution 7 seeks Shareholder authorisation to issue 1,000,000,000 CRPS to Eurotin (being the Consideration Shares) and one Debenture to Mark Wellings that may be converted into Debenture Shares.
CRPS Terms
The terms of the CRPS are set out in Annexure C to this Explanatory Memorandum.
Debenture Terms
The terms of the Debenture are set out in Annexure D to this Explanatory Memorandum.
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 - Issues exceeding 15% of capital
Subject to certain exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 prohibits a listed company, from issuing or agreeing to issue in any 12 month period new Equity Securities equivalent in number to more than 15% of the total number of ordinary securities on issue at the beginning of the twelve month period ( 15% Capacity ) without either the prior approval of a majority of disinterested shareholders, or the issue otherwise falls within one of the prescribed exceptions to Listing Rule 7.1 ( 15% Rule ).
Equity Securities issued with shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 do not count towards the 15% Capacity.
Convertible redeemable preference shares and the Debenture are Equity Securities under the Listing Rules. However, under Exception 4 in Listing Rule 7.2, an issue of Equity Securities on the conversion of Convertible Securities does not count towards the 15% Capacity provided that the Company
Elementos Limited
Page 22
Explanatory Memorandum
complied with the Listing Rules when it issued the Convertible Securities (or issued the Convertible Securities before it was listed).
Therefore the Company is seeking Shareholder approval in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1 to issue the 1,000,000,000 CRPS and the Debenture, so that the issue of those CRPS, the Debenture and any Equity Securities issued upon conversion of those CRPS or the Debenture do not count towards the Company’s 15% Capacity.

The maximum number of Shares that may be issued upon conversion of the CRPS is 1,000,000,000. One Debenture, with a face value of CAD$1,000,000, converting into ordinary shares as set out above. The maximum number of Debenture Shares that approval is sought for pursuant to this Resolution 7 is 297,000,000.

The Company will issue the CRPS at the Interim Completion as consideration, provided such shares are distributed to Eurotin shareholders and will automatically convert to ordinary shares upon Final Completion occurring. Eurotin will distribute the CRPS via an in specie distribution (a return of capital) to its shareholders. The conversion of CRPS will occur within 10 business days after the Spanish Regional Mining Authority Approval is obtained and Final Completion occurs (see Annexure C for further details).

RESOLUTION 8 - ISSUE OF CONVERTIBLE REDEEMABLE PREFERENCE SHARES - SECTION 254A(2)Approval being sought
Section 2.2 of the Constitution allows the Board to, subject to the Corporations Act, issue preference shares, and the Board may allot or otherwise dispose of these preference shares on the terms and conditions, and at the times, that the Board thinks fit.
Section 254A(2) of the Corporations Act specifies that a company can only issue preference shares if the rights attached to them are set out in the company’s constitution or have otherwise been approved by Special Resolution of the company.
Accordingly, the Board is seeking shareholder approval for the purposes of section 254A(2) of the Corporations Act, by a Special Resolution, to issue the CRPS on the terms and with the rights provided for as set out in Annexure C ( Preference Share Terms ).
Rights to be attached to the Company Preference Shares
The rights that are to be attached to the CRPS are set out in Annexure C.
Consequences of Resolutions being passed
If Shareholder approval of Resolutions 7 and 8 are obtained, the Company will lodge with ASIC a copy of Resolution 8 in accordance with section 246F. The effect of doing so will be that if and when the Company subsequently issues the CRPS, as contemplated by and in accordance with the Arrangement Agreement, the issue of those new preference shares of the Company will not constitute a variation of the rights of any other shareholders of the Company under section 246C(5) or 246C(6) of the Corporations Act on the basis that the rights attaching to the new shares (the CRPS) will have been provided for in a notice, document or resolution that is lodged with ASIC.
Director’s recommendation
The Directors unanimously recommend that you vote in favour of this Special Resolution 8.
RESOLUTION 9 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE AN ADDITIONAL 10% OF THE ISSUED CAPITAL OF THE COMPANY OVER A 12 MONTH PERIOD PURSUANT TO LISTING RULE 7.1A
Introduction
Pursuant to Resolution 9, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval to issue an additional 10% of issued capital over a 12 month period in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A.
Elementos Limited

Explanatory Memorandum
General
Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an Eligible Entity may seek Shareholder approval to allow it to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued capital over a period up to 12 months after the entity’s annual general meeting ( 10% Placement Capacity ). The 10% Placement Capacity is in addition to the Company's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
If Shareholders approve Resolution 9, the number of Equity Securities the Eligible Entity may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out below).
The effect of Resolution 9 will be to allow the Directors to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of the Company’s fully paid ordinary securities on issue under the 10% Placement Capacity during the period up to 12 months after the Meeting ( Placement Securities ), without subsequent Shareholder approval and without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
The Company may issue the Placement Securities to raise funds for the Company and as non-cash consideration (further details of which are set out below). Funds raised from the issue of Placement Securities, if undertaken, would be applied towards the acquisition of new resources, assets and investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition), continued exploration expenditure on the Company’s current assets and general working capital (including payment of expenses associated with the issue of Placement Securities).
Resolution 9 is a Special Resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 9 for it to be passed. Pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A, no Placement Securities will be issued until and unless this Special Resolution is passed at the AGM.
Listing Rule 7.1A
Listing Rule 7.1A enables an Eligible Entity to seek shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to issue Equity Securities in addition to those under the Eligible Entity’s 15% annual placement capacity.
Eligibility
An Eligible Entity is one that, as at the date of the relevant annual general meeting:
-
is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index; and
-
has a maximum market capitalisation (excluding restricted securities and securities quoted on a deferred settlement basis) of $300,000,000.
The Company is an Eligible Entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a current market capitalisation of approximately $7.8 million.
The Company is therefore an eligible entity and able to undertake an Additional 10% Placement under Listing Rule 7.1A. In the event that the Company is no longer an eligible entity to undertake an Additional 10% Placement after the Company has already obtained Shareholder approval, the approval obtained will not lapse and the Company will still be entitled to issue the Placement Securities
The Equity Securities must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted Equity Securities. The Company currently has only one class of quoted Equity Securities on issue, being the Shares.
The ability of an entity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A is in addition to the entity’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
Special Resolution
Listing Rule 7.1A requires this Resolution 9 to be passed as a Special Resolution, which means that it must be passed by at least 75% of the votes cast by members entitled to vote on the Resolution.
Elementos Limited
Page 26
Explanatory Memorandum
Pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A, no Placement Securities will be issued until and unless this Special Resolution is passed at the Meeting.
Shareholder Approval
The ability to issue the Placement Securities is conditional upon the Company obtaining Shareholder approval by way of a Special Resolution at the Meeting.
Date of Issue
The Placement Securities may be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity commencing on the date of the Annual General Meeting and expiring on the first to occur of the following:
-
(i) 12 months after the date of the Annual General Meeting; and
-
(ii) the date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of the Company’s activities) or 11.2 (disposal of the Company’s main undertaking), at which time approval under Listing Rule 7.1A will cease to be valid; or
-
(iii) such longer period if allowed by ASX.
( 10% Placement Capacity Period ).
If approval is given for the Additional 10% Placement at the AGM on 30 November 2018, then the approval will expire on 30 November 2019. In addition, the approval under Resolution 9 for the issue of the Placement Securities will cease to be valid in the event that Shareholders approve a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities of the Company) or Listing Rule 11.2 (the disposal of the main undertaking of the Company) before the anniversary of the AGM.
Formula for calculating Additional 10% placement
Assuming all Placement Shares are issued, at the date of the Meeting, the Company will have on issue 1,537,330,962 Shares, and therefore has capacity to issue:
-
(i) 230,599,644 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1; and
-
(ii) 153,733,096 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.
Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that Eligible Entities that have obtained shareholder approval at an annual general meeting may issue or agree to issue, during the 12 month period after the date of the annual general meeting, a number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the blow formula. The exact number of Equity Securities that the Company may issue with approval under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated according to the following formula:
(A x D) – E
Where:
A = the number of fully paid ordinary securities (Shares) on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:
-
(i) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;
-
(ii) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the previous 12 months;
-
(iii) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months with approval of holders of Shares under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.4;
-
(iv) less the number of Shares cancelled in the previous 12 months.
Elementos Limited
Page 27
Explanatory Memorandum
D = 10%.
E = the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the issue date or date of agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of holders of ordinary securities under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.
Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.1A and Listing Rule 7.3A
Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to this Resolution 9:
Equity Securities
Any Equity Securities issued under the Additional 10% Placement must be in the same class as an existing quoted class of Equity Securities of the Company.
As at the date of this notice of meeting, the only class of Equity Securities in the Company quoted on the ASX are ordinary shares. The Company presently has 1,487,330,962 shares on issue at the date of this Notice of Meeting, and will have 1,537,330,962 shares on issue at the date of the Meeting once all Placement Shares have been issued.
Minimum Price
The minimum price at which the Placement Securities may be issued is 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in the same class, calculated over the 15 Trading Days immediately before:
-
(i) the date on which the price at which the relevant Placement Securities are to be issued is agreed; or
-
(ii) if the relevant Placement Securities are not issued within 5 Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the relevant Placement Securities are issued.
The Company will disclose to the ASX the issue price on the date of issue of the relevant Placement Securities.
Information on Allotment
If Resolution 9 is passed and the Company issues any Placement Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, the Company will give to ASX:
-
(i) a list of allottees of the Placement Securities and the number of Placement Securities allotted to each (this list will not be released to the market); and
-
(ii) the following information required by rule 3.10.5A, will be released to the market on the date of issue:
-
a. details of the dilution to the existing holders of Equity Securities caused by the issue;
-
b. where the Equity Securities are issued for cash consideration, a statement of the reasons why the Company issued the Equity Securities as a placement under rule 7.1A and not as (or in addition to) a pro rata issue or other type of issue in which existing Shareholders would have been eligible to participate;
-
c. details of any underwriting arrangements, including any fees payable to the underwriter; and
-
d. any other fees or costs incurred in connection with the issue.

Explanatory Memorandum
Risk of voting dilution
Any issue of Placement Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Equity Securities under the issue. If Resolution 9 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Capacity, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below.
The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A(2), on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of Equity Securities on issue as at the date of this Notice.
The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 10% Placement Capacity.
| Listing Rule 7.1A.2 | Dilution |
|---|---|
| $0.0025 $0.0050 $0.0100 |
|
| 50% decrease in Market Price Market Price 100% increase in Market Price |

The table above uses the following assumptions:
-
Resolution 9 is passed.
-
The current Shares on issue are the Shares on issue as at 19 October 2018 and assuming that all Placement Shares have been issued.
-
The Share price set out above is the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 19 October 2018 (being the last trading day before the finalisation of this Notice of Meeting).
-
The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity.
-
The above table only shows the dilutionary effect based on the 10% Placement Capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A and not the 15% issue under Listing Rule 7.1.
-
The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue.
-
The issued capital has been calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A(2) as at 19 October 2018 and assuming that all Placement Shares have been issued.
-
The issue price of the Placement Securities used in the table is the same as the Share price and does not take into account any discount to the share price (if any).
Elementos Limited
Page 29
Explanatory Memorandum
-
No Options are exercised into Shares before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.
-
The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.
-
Only Shares will be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity and none of the Company’s unquoted Options rights have been exercised.
Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:
-
(i) the market price for the Company’s Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the issue date of any Placement Securities than on the date of the Annual General Meeting; and
-
(ii) the Placement Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for the Company’s Equity Securities on the date of issue,
which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the Placement Securities.
Purpose of Issue under 10% Placement Capacity – Listing Rule 7.3A.4
The Company may issue Placement Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for the following purposes:
-
(i) for cash consideration, in which case the Company intends to use funds raised for the acquisition of new resources, assets and investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition), continued exploration expenditure on the Company’s current assets and general working capital (including payment of expenses associated with the issue of Placement Securities); or
-
(ii) for non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new resources assets and investments and payment of expenses, in such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by Listing Rule 7.1A.3.
Allocation under the 10% Placement Capacity
The allottees of the Placement Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been determined. However, the allottees of Placement Securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties or Associates of a related party of the Company. Further, if the Company is successful in acquiring new assets or investments, it is likely that the allottees under the Additional 10% Placement will be vendors of the new assets or investments.
The Company will determine the allottees at the time of the issue under the 10% Placement Capacity, having regard to the following factors:
-
(i) the purpose of the issue;
-
(ii) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;
-
(iii) the effect of the issue of the Placement Securities on the control of the Company;
-
(iv) the Company’s circumstances, including, but not limited to, its financial position and solvency;
-
(v) prevailing market conditions; and
-
(vi) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).

The exercise price of each Option is $0.007 ( Exercise Price ).
-
The Options will expire on 30 June 2020 ( Expiry Date ) unless earlier exercised.
-
The Options are transferable.
-
The Options may be exercised at any time wholly or in part by delivering a duly completed form of notice of exercise together with payment for the Exercise Price per Option to the Company at any time on or after the date of issue of the Options and on or before the Expiry Date. Payment may be made as directed by the Company from time to time, which may include by cheque, electronic funds transfer or other methods.
-
The number of Options that may be exercised at one time must be not less than 5,000,000, unless the Option holder holds less than 5,000,000 in which case all Options must be exercised at one time.
-
Upon the valid exercise of the Options and payment of the Exercise Price, the Company will issue fully paid ordinary shares ranking pari passu with the then issued ordinary shares.
-
Option holders do not have any right to participate in new issues of securities in the Company made to shareholders generally. The Company will, where required pursuant to the ASX Listing Rules, provide Option holders with notice prior to the books record date (to determine entitlements to any new issue of securities made to shareholders generally) to exercise the Options, in accordance with the requirements of the Listing Rules.
-
Option holders do not participate in any dividends unless the Options are exercised and the resultant shares of the Company are issued prior to the record date to determine entitlements to the dividend.
-
In the event of any reorganisation (including consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return) of the issued capital of the Company:
-
(a) the number of Options, the Exercise Price of the Options, or both will be reorganised (as appropriate) in a manner consistent with the ASX Listing Rules as applicable at the time of reorganisation, but with the intention that such reorganisation will not result in any benefits being conferred on the holders of the Options which are not conferred on shareholders; and
-
(b) subject to the provisions with respect to rounding of entitlements as sanctioned by a meeting of shareholders approving a reorganisation of capital, in all other respects the terms for the exercise of the Options will remain unchanged.
-
If there is a pro rata issue (except a bonus issue), the Exercise Price of an Option may be reduced according to the following formula:
O[n] = O - E [P-(S + D)]
N + 1
Where:
O[n] = the new exercise price of the Option; O = the old exercise price of the Option; E = the number of underlying securities into which one Option is exercisable;

Explanatory Memorandum
-
P = the volume weighted average market price per security of the underlying securities during the five trading days ending on the day before the ex right date or the ex entitlements date;
-
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); and
-
N = the number of securities with rights or entitlements that must be held to receive a right to one new security.
-
If there is a bonus issue to the holders of shares in the Company, the number of Shares over which the Option is exercisable may be increased by the number of Shares which the Option holder would have received if the Option had been exercised before the record date for the bonus issue.
-
The terms of the Options shall only be changed if holders (whose votes are not to be disregarded) of ordinary shares in the Company approve of such a change. However, unless all necessary waivers of the ASX Listing Rules are obtained, the terms of the Options shall not be changed to reduce the Exercise Price, increase the number of Options or change any period for exercise of the Options.
-
The Company does not intend to apply for listing of the Options on the ASX.
-
The Company shall apply for listing of the resultant Shares of the Company issued upon exercise of any Option.

Appointment of a Second Proxy
You are entitled to appoint up to two proxies to attend the meeting and vote. If you wish to appoint a second proxy, an additional Proxy Form may be obtained by contacting the company’s securities registry or you may copy this form.

The form must be signed as follows:
Individual: This form is to be signed by the securityholder.

Power of Attorney: to sign under a Power of Attorney, you must have already lodged it with the registry. Alternatively, attach a certified photocopy of the Power of Attorney to this form when you return it.

To appoint a second proxy you must:
(a) complete two Proxy Forms. On each Proxy Form state the percentage of your voting rights or the number of securities applicable to that form.

(b) return both forms together in the same envelope.
STEP 2 VOTING DIRECTIONS TO YOUR PROXY
To direct your proxy how to vote, mark one of the boxes opposite each item of business. All your securities will be voted in accordance with such a direction unless you indicate only a portion of securities are to be voted on any item by inserting the percentage or number that you wish to vote in the appropriate box or boxes. If you do not mark any of the boxes on a given item, your proxy may vote as he or she chooses. If you mark more than one box on an item for all your securities your vote on that item will be invalid.
