Capital Raising Background

On the 6[th] of November 2013, the Company announced a private share placement of new Shares to raise $1,679,000, which comprised:

  • (a) the initial issue of 68,950,000 Shares by way of a private placement to sophisticated and professional investors at an issue price of $0.02 per Share, raising $1,379,000 ( Unconditional Placement ); and

  • (b) an agreement to subsequently issue a further 15,000,000 Shares by way of private placement to sophisticated and professional investors at an issue price of $0.02 per Share, raising $300,000, which was conditional on Shareholder approval being obtained for that issue ( Conditional Placement ),

(together, the Capital Raising ).

The funds raised from the Capital Raising will be applied to:

  • (a) completing the environmental permitting process for the mine de-watering and tailings retreatment project;

  • (b) completing the pre-feasibility study to redevelop the underground tin-copper mine;

  • (c) satisfying the acquisition payments for the remaining 50% interest in the Cleveland project exploration license; and

  • (d) other general working capital purposes.

The table below illustrates the effect of the Capital Raising on the Company’s share capital, assuming that Resolution 2 is passed:

Securities currently on
issue
Securities issued under
Unconditional
Placement
Securities proposed to be

Shares 466,751,277 68,950,000 15,000,000
Options (Listed
and Unlisted)
42,052,052 - -

The total dilutionary effect of the Unconditional Placement was 14.77%, and the total dilutionary effect of the Conditional Placement will, if Resolutions 2 and 3 are passed, be 2.80%.

Explanatory Memorandum

Resolution 1 - Ratification of Unconditional Placement

Resolution 1 seeks to ratify the issue of 68,950,000 Shares issued pursuant to the Unconditional Placement.

Listing Rule 7.1 provides that, unless an exception applies, the prior approval of shareholders is required for an issue of Equity Securities if the Equity Securities will, subject to certain exceptions, together with the number of all other Equity Securities issued by the company during the previous 12 months, exceed 15% of the number of Equity Securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period ( 15% Threshold ).

Listing Rule 7.4 provides that an issue of Equity Securities made without prior shareholder approval is treated as having been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.1 if the issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1 at the time of issue and the company's shareholders subsequently approve that issue.

The Unconditional Shares were initially issued within the Company's 15% Threshold. However, if Resolution 1 is passed, the Company will not need to include the Unconditional Shares when calculating how many Shares it has already issued in reliance on the 15% Threshold.

This means that, if Resolution 1 is passed together with the approval sought in Resolution 2, the Company will be able to raise further funds by issuing up to the maximum of the 15% Threshold, without the need to obtain the prior approval of Shareholders. Any Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1 will also be in addition to any Equity Securities that may be issued pursuant to the additional 10% capacity contained in Listing Rule 7.1A.

For the purposes of Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in respect of Resolution 1:

For the purposes
Resolution 1:
of Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in respect of
Number of
securities issued
The Company has issued 68,950,000 Unconditional Shares.
Issue Price The issue price for the Unconditional Shares was $0.02 per Unconditional
Share, raising $1,379,000 (before the expenses of the Unconditional
Placement).
Terms of the
securities
All Unconditional Shares rank equally with all other Shares on issue.
Names of
allottees
The Unconditional Shares were issued to various professional and
sophisticated investors who were significant Shareholders in the Company
and/ or had previously subscribed for Shares in the Company’s May 2013
share purchase plan and had indicated to the Company that they would
like to subscribe for additional Shares.
No Director or any of their Associates have participated in, or will receive
any Unconditional Shares pursuant to, the Unconditional Placement.
Use of funds The funds raised by the Unconditional Placement will be used for the
purposes outlined in the section of this Explanatory Memorandum entitled
Capital Raising Background”.

The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1 and advise that they intend to vote any Shares that they own or control in favour of Resolution 1.

Explanatory Memorandum

Resolution 2 - Approval of Conditional Placement

As mentioned in the section of this Explanatory Memorandum entitled “ Capital Raising Background ” on page 6, the Capital Raising included a Conditional Placement whereby the Company has agreed to issue a further 15,000,000 Shares to sophisticated and professional investors at an issue price of $0.02, subject to first obtaining Shareholder approval.

As the Company does not have sufficient capacity to issue the Conditional Shares within its 15% Threshold, prior Shareholder approval is required under Listing Rule 7.1 in order to proceed with the Conditional Placement. Resolution 2 seeks this approval.

If Resolution 2 is passed, the Company will issue the Conditional Shares to those sophisticated and professional investors who have applied for Conditional Shares in accordance with the Conditional Placement.

Shareholders should also be aware, that if Resolution 2 is passed, any Shares issued pursuant to the Conditional Placement will not be counted towards the Company's 15% Threshold under Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating how many Equity Securities can be issued in the absence of Shareholder approval. Any Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1 will also be in addition to any Equity Securities that may be issued pursuant to the additional 10% capacity contained in Listing Rule 7.1A.

If Resolution 2 is not passed, no Conditional Shares will be issued and all application money received from applicants under the Conditional Placement will be returned to those applicants.

For the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in respect of Resolution 2:

For the purposes of
Resolution 2:
Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in respect of
Maximum number
of securities
proposed to be
issued
Subject to Resolution 2 being passed, the maximum number of
Conditional Shares that the Company will issue will be 15,000,000
Conditional Shares.
Issue Price The issue price of the Conditional Shares is $0.02 per Conditional Share,
raising $300,000 before expenses of the Conditional Placement.
Terms of the
securities
All Conditional Shares will, from their date of issue, rank equally with all
other Shares on issue. The Company will apply for the Conditional Shares
to be quoted on the ASX.
Names of allottees If Resolution 2 is passed the Shares will be issued to the following persons:
(a)
Mr Andrew Carlyle Greig; and
(b)
subject to Resolution 3 also being passed, Mr Richard Seville.
Other than Mr Seville, no other Director or any of their Associates have
participated in, or will receive any Conditional Shares pursuant to, the
Conditional Placement.
Use of funds It is proposed that the funds raised by the Conditional Placement will be
used for the purposes outlined in the section of this Explanatory
Memorandum entitled “Capital Raising Background”.

8

Explanatory Memorandum

Date of issue The Conditional Shares will be issued as soon as practicable following the
Meeting, and in any event, will be issued no later than 3 months after the
Meeting1.

The Directors, other than Mr Seville, subject to the passing of this Resolution 2 and Resolution 3 below, who will be issued Conditional Shares pursuant to the Conditional Placement and has therefore abstained from providing any such recommendation, unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

Resolution 3 - Approval of Issue of Shares to Mr Richard Seville

As noted in the explanatory notes for Resolution 2 on page 8, the Capital Raising included a Conditional Placement to sophisticated and professional investors that is subject to Shareholder approval in accordance with Resolution 2.

Among those persons who subscribed for Shares pursuant to the Conditional Placement was Mr Seville, a Director of the Company.

ASX Listing Rule 10.11 requires that the Company obtain Shareholder approval prior to the issue of equity Equity Securities to a Related Party of the Company

As Mr Seville is a Related Party of the Company, by virtue of his position as a Director, Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of Conditional Shares to Mr Seville in accordance with Listing Rule 10.11.

The effect of Resolution 3 will be that, if passed (in addition to Resolution 2), Mr Seville will receive Conditional Shares.

If either Resolution 2 or 3 are not passed, no Shares will be issued to Mr Seville as part of the Conditional Placement and that all application money received from Mr Seville for the Conditional Shares will be returned to him.

Shareholders should be aware that, if approval is given to issue Shares to Mr Seville under Listing Rule 10.11, approval will not be required under Listing Rule 7.1 and that the number of Shares issued to Mr Seville will not be counted towards the Company’s 15% threshold.

For the purposes of Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in respect of Resolution 3:

Maximum number of
securities proposed
to be issued
The maximum number of Shares proposed to be issued to Mr Seville is
7,500,000 Conditional Shares.
Issue Price The issue price of the Conditional Shares proposed to be issued to
Mr Seville is $0.02 per Conditional Share.
Terms of the
securities
All Conditional Shares will, from their date of issue, rank equally with all
other Shares on issue. The Company will apply for the Conditional Shares
to be quoted on the ASX.

1 Other than Mr Seville’s Conditional Shares, which will be issued within 1 month of the date of approval.

9

Explanatory Memorandum

Names of allottees If Resolutions 2 and 3 are passed, the Shares will be issued to Mr Seville.
Use of funds It is proposed that the funds raised by the Conditional Placement will be
used for the purposes outlined in the section of this Explanatory
Memorandum entitled “Capital Raising Background”.
Date of issue The Conditional Shares will be issued as soon as practicable following
the Meeting, and in any event, will be issued no later than 1 month after
this Meeting.

As the proposed issue of Shares to Mr Seville in accordance with Resolution 3 will:

  • (a) be at the same issue price as all other participants in the Capital Raising; and

  • (b) provide the Company with significant additional funds to progress its objectives,

the Directors, other than Mr Seville who has abstained from providing any recommendation, recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3 and advise that they intend to vote any Shares that they own or control in favour of Resolution 3.

Resolution 4 - Approval of Option Plan

The Company has previously established an Employee and Officer Share Option Plan ( Option Plan ) to enable the issue of Options to eligible employees, officers and senior consultants to assist in the attraction, retention and motivation of those persons.

While Shareholders have previously approved the Option Plan, following the recent changes to the structure of the Company, the Company intends to amend the Option Plan so as to seek to increase its effectiveness and to better incentivise eligible employees, officers and senior consultants to the Company.

Specifically, it is proposed that the Option Plan be amended as follows:

  • (a) Good Leaver – Board Discretion

Currently, the Option Plan enables the Board to exercise its discretion to prevent an Option from automatically lapsing in circumstances where a participant in the Option Plan ceases to be an employee, a Director or otherwise engaged by the Company, including in circumstances where an employee dies, becomes redundant, resigns, has their employment terminated or becomes permanently disabled ( Ceasing Event ), and to allow those Options to be exercised at any time prior to the earlier of:

  • (a)the expiry of their initial term; and

  • (b)the date that is 6 months after the Ceasing Event.

However, the Option Plan does not include the ability for the Board to waive any conditions attaching to the Options in those circumstances.

Accordingly, the Company is proposing to amend the Option Plan to provide the Board with the ability to:

  • (i) waive any exercise conditions attaching to an Option; and

  • (ii) enable any Options issued to be exercised at any time prior to their expiry,

where a Ceasing Event occurs.

10

Explanatory Memorandum

The purpose of these amendments is to reflect the fact that a participant in the Option Plan (or their representative in the case of death or permanent incapacity) may have limited scope to influence whether any conditions attaching to any Options issued are satisfied following the occurrence of such a Ceasing Event.

Accordingly, in these circumstances, the Directors consider that it is appropriate that the Board also have the discretion to waive any conditions attaching to the Options and allow them to be exercised at any time during their term in circumstances where it is appropriate to do so.

(b) Broader Discretion to Waive Exercise Conditions on a Merger

Currently, the Option Plan enables the Board to determine that Options have become exercisable in circumstances where a takeover bid is made for the Company and a person acquires more than 50% of the Company’s Shares.

However, in recognition of the various means by which a takeover or reorganisation of the Company’s Shares may occur, the Company intends to amend the Option Plan to also provide the Board with the discretion to determine that Options have become exercisable where:

  • (i) a scheme of arrangement pursuant to the Corporations Act has been approved by the Court for the acquisition of more than 50% of the total issued capital of the Company; or

  • (ii) any person acquires a Relevant Interest in more than 50% of the voting power in the Company.

The purpose of these amendments is to reflect the fact that there may be other circumstances, other than a takeover bid is made for the Company, where it is appropriate for the Board to have the discretion to determine that the Options have become exercisable.

The Directors consider that this amendment appropriately recognises that Shareholder value may be increased through a range of corporate activities other than just a takeover offer for the Company, as has been reflected in the recent acquisition of Rockwell Minerals Limited by the Company.

A summary of the terms and conditions of the Option Plan (as amended) is contained in Annexure A to this Explanatory Memorandum.

Shareholder approval for the issue of Options pursuant to the Option Plan (as amended) is now being sought for the reasons set out below.

Listing Rules

As noted under the other Resolutions of this Explanatory Memorandum, ASX Listing Rule 7.1 prohibits, subject to certain qualified exceptions, the Company from issuing Equity Securities in excess of the 15% Threshold, unless prior Shareholder approval is obtained.

ASX Listing Rule 7.2, however, provides that the general prohibition contained in Listing Rule 7.1 does not apply to any Options issued in accordance with the Option Plan, if in the 3 years before the date of the relevant issue, Shareholders have approved the issue of Options under the Option Plan as an exception to Listing Rule 7.1.

Accordingly, Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval of the Option Plan as an exception to Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 4 is passed, any issue of Options in accordance with the Option Plan during the three years following the passing of the Resolution will not be counted towards the Company’s

11

Explanatory Memorandum

15% Threshold when calculating how many Equity Securities can be issued in the absence of Shareholder approval. This will not, however, restrict the issue of any Shares on the exercise of any Options already issued prior to the expiry of that three year period.

Corporations Act

The Corporations Act restricts the Company from giving certain “benefits” to certain persons (those who hold a managerial or executive office, as defined in the Corporations Act) on ceasing their employment with the Company ( Termination Benefits ), in the absence of prior shareholder approval unless an exemption applies.

The term “benefit” is defined broadly in the Corporations Act and includes benefits arising from the Board exercising its discretion under the rules of the Option Plan.

Resolution 4 also seeks Shareholder approval, for the Company to provide these Termination Benefits to participants in the Option Plan.

Specifically, Shareholder approval is being sought to enable the Board to exercise certain discretions under the Option Plan, including the discretion to determine to waive some or all of the exercise conditions attaching to Options issued to a participant, where a participant ceases to be employed or engaged by the Company, including as a result of redundancy, resignation, death, or the termination of their employment or engagement (where they are a contractor) for cause.

This approval is being sought in respect of any current or future participant in the Option Plan, and the Termination Benefits that may arise if and when any participants cease to be engaged by the Company.

Except as provided for, and subject to the passing of, Resolutions 5 and 6, no other Director will participate in the Option Plan unless separate Shareholder approval is first obtained. For the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 9(b)) and section 200E of the Corporations Act, the following information is provided in respect of Resolution 4.

Prior issue of
Options
pursuant to
the Option
Plan
As at the date of this Explanatory Memorandum, the Company has not made
any issues of Options under the Option Plan (as amended).
Shareholders should, however, be aware that the Company has previously
issued 9,100,000 options to Directors and other senior management pursuant
to the Option Plan prior to its proposed amendment.
Terms of
Options
A summary of the terms of the Option Plan is set out in Annexure A.
Explanation
of the
termination
benefits
The Option Plan contains provisions setting out the treatment of unexercised
Options, including the Board’s discretion to waive any exercise conditions
attaching to those Options in the event of cessation of engagement by the
Company arising from, among other things, redundancy, resignation, death,
termination of employment for cause or becomes permanently disabled.
As noted above, the exercise of these discretions by the Board will constitute
a “benefit” for the purposes of the restrictions contained in the Corporations
Act’s regarding Termination Benefits.
Value of the
termination
benefits
Various matters will or are likely to affect that value of the Termination Benefits
that the Board may give under the Option Plan and, therefore the value of
the Termination Benefits cannot be determined in advance. The value of a
particular benefit resulting from the exercise of the Board’s discretion under

12

Explanatory Memorandum

the Option Plan will depend on factors such as the Company’s share price at the time of the exercise of this discretion and the number of Options that the Board decides to waive the exercise conditions in respect of. Some of the factors that may affect the value of the Termination Benefits are as follows: (a) the nature and extent of any exercise conditions waived by the Board; (b) the number of exercise conditions that have been satisfied at the time that the Board exercises this discretion; and (c) the number of unexercised Options that the participant holds at the time that this discretion is exercised.

As it is proposed that each of Messrs Nolan and Treacy will receive Options pursuant to the Option Plan, subject to the passing or Resolutions 5 and 6, and as a result of any perceived conflict of interest that Mr Seville may have in relation to the proposed issue of Options, the Directors do not make any voting recommendation to Shareholders as to how to vote on Resolution 4.

Resolutions 5 and 6 - Issue of Options to Mr Corey Nolan and Mr Calvin Treacy

As approval is required under Resolutions 5 and 6 for the same reasons, the explanations for these three Resolutions have been combined into this summary.

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval for the Company to issue Options to Directors, employees and contractors to the Company in accordance with the terms of the Option Plan.

Among those persons initially intended to be issued Options in accordance with the Option Plan are two of the Company’s Directors, Messrs Nolan and Treacy.

However, Listing Rule 10.14 provides that a director may not acquire securities under an employee incentive scheme without the approval of shareholders.

Accordingly, Resolutions 5 and 6 seek Shareholder approval for the Company to issue Options to each of Messrs Nolan and Treacy in accordance with the Option Plan.

A summary of the terms of the Option Plan is set out in Annexure A. The specific terms that will apply to the issue of Options to Messrs Nolan and Treacy are set out below.

For the purposes of Listing Rule 10.15, the following information is provided in respect of Resolutions 5 and 6:

Resolution 5 Resolution 6
Proposed allottees Mr Corey Nolan Mr Calvin Treacy
Maximum number of
securities to be issued
6,200,000 Options 6,200,000 Options
Issue date and Exercise
Period
The Options will be issued as soon as practicable following the
Meeting and, in any event, will be issued no later than 12 months
after this General Meeting.
The Options may be exercised at any time within 48 months of
their being issued, subject to the Board’s discretion to extend the

13

Explanatory Memorandum

exercise period in accordance with the terms of the Option Plan.
Issue and exercise price The Options are being issued as part of Messrs Nolan and Treacy’s
remuneration and as an incentive for future performance. As
such, they will be issued free of charge.
The exercise price per Option, which is required to be paid to
receive Shares on the exercise of the Options, is 3 cents.
No loans have been or will be provided as part of the Option Plan.
Details of Directors or their
associates who previously
received Options under the
scheme
The details of all Directors and their Associates that received
options under the scheme since the last approval are:
(a) 2,500,000 options issued to Mr Nolan, which were issued on 23
October 2009 and had an exercise price of 22.6 cents; and
(b) 800,000 options issued to Mr Nolan, which were issued on 8
February 2013 and had an at an exercise price of 6 cents.
Names of persons referred
to in Listing Rule 10.14 that
are entitled to participate in
the Option Plan
Each of Messrs Nolan, Treacy and Seville, together with any other
Director that may be appointed from time to time, are entitled to
participate in the Option Plan.
However, as Shareholder approval is not currently being sought,
and has not previously been obtained, for the issue of Options to
Mr Seville or any other Director other than Messrs Nolan and
Treacy, no Options will be issued to Mr Seville or any other Director
that may be appointed in the future unless Shareholder approval
is separately sought and obtained for the issue of such Options
pursuant to Listing Rule 10.14.

Additional Disclosure

To assist Shareholders in considering the proposed Resolutions, the Company also provides the following additional information in respect of Resolutions 5 and 6:

Resolution 5 Resolution 6
Proposed allottee Mr Corey Nolan Mr Calvin Treacy
Terms of issue A summary of the terms of the Option Plan is set out in Annexure A.
Use of funds If the full 6,200,000 Options are
exercised, an amount (based on
$0.03 per Option) of $186,000 will be
raised. This amount will be put
towards the Company’s general
working capital requirements and
exploration activities at the relevant
time.
If the full 6,200,000 Options are
exercised, an amount (based on
$0.03 per Option) of $186,000 will be
raised. This amount will be put
towards the Company’s general
working capital requirements and
exploration activities at the relevant
time.
Why are Options
proposed to be
issued
In the Company’s circumstances as they existed as at the date of this
Explanatory Memorandum, the Directors consider that the Options provide a
cost-effective and efficient incentive as opposed to alternative forms of
incentives (e.g. cash bonuses, increased remuneration). However, it must be
recognised that there will be an opportunity cost to the Company, being the

14

Explanatory Memorandum

price at which the Company could grant the Options to a third party.
The opportunity costs and benefits foregone by the Company by issuing the
Options to each of the recipients is the potentially dilutionary impact on the
issued share capital of the Company (in the event that the options are
exercised). Until exercised, the issue of the Options will not impact upon the
number of ordinary shares on issue in the Company. To the extent that upon
their exercise the dilutionary impact caused with the issue of shares will be
detrimental to the Company, this is more than offset by the advantages
accruing from the Company securing the services of experienced and
skilled Directors on appropriate incentive terms.
It is also considered that the potential increase of value in the Options is
dependent upon a concomitant increase in the value of the Company
generally.
Why the number
of Options was
Chosen
The number of Options was chosen following commercial negotiations
between the Company and each of Messrs Nolan and Treacy, for the
purpose of providing a cost effective means of incentivising Messrs Nolan
and Treacy to increase Shareholder value through the development of the
Cleveland project and the monetising of the Company’s other projects.
The Board determined that by offering Messrs Nolan and Treacy the Options,
together with their remuneration packages, this would assist the Company in
securing the services of Messrs Nolan and Treacy.
Directors’ interest
in the outcome
Other than the interests that each of Messrs Nolan and Treacy have in
receiving Options pursuant to Resolutions 5 and 6 (respectively), no Director
has any interest in the outcome of Resolutions 5 and 6.
Valuation of the
Options
The Options are not currently quoted on the ASX and as such have no
market value. The Options each grant the holder thereof a right of grant of
one ordinary share in the Company upon exercise of the Option and
payment of the exercise price of the Option described above. Accordingly,
the Options may have a present value at the date of their grant.
The Options may acquire future value dependent upon the extent to which
the shares exceed the exercise price of the Options during the term of the
Options.
As a general proposition, options to subscribe for ordinary fully paid shares in
a company have value. Various factors impact upon the value of options
including things such as:
(a)
the period outstanding before the expiry date of the options;
(b)
the exercise price of the options relative to the underlying price or
value of the securities into which they may be converted;
(c)
the proportion of the issued capital as expanded consequent upon
exercise represented by the shares issued upon exercise (ie whether or
not the shares that might be acquired upon exercise of the options
represent a controlling or other significant interest);
(d)
the value of the shares into which the options may be converted; and
(e)
whether or not the options are listed (ie readily capable of being
liquidated).

15

Explanatory Memorandum

There are various formulae which can be applied to determining the
theoretical value of options (including the formula known as the Black-
Scholes Model option valuation formula).
The Company has applied a Black-Scholes Model, which is the most widely
used and recognised model for pricing options. The value of an option
calculated by the Black-Scholes Model is a function of the relationship
between a number of variables, being the share price, the exercise price,
the time to expiry, the risk free interest rate and the volatility of the
company’s underlying share price.
Inherent in the application of the Black–Scholes Model are a number of
inputs, some of which must be assumed. The data relied upon in applying
the Black–Scholes Model was:
(a)
the exercise price of the Options being 3 cents;
(b)
an assumed Share price at the date the Options are granted of 2
cents, being the Share price as at the date of valuation on 23
December 2013);
(c)
an expiry date of 4 years from the date the Options are proposed to
be issued to the Directors;
(d)
a volatility measure of 63.41%;
(e)
a risk-free interest rate of 4.25%; and
(f)
a dividend yield of nil.
Based on this information, the Company has adopted an indicative value
for each Option of 0.826 cents.
On that basis, the respective value of the Options to be issued pursuant to
Resolutions 5 and 6 are as follows:
(a)
$51,212
(b)
$51,212
TOTAL $102,424
The Option valuation noted above assumes a market price of the Shares on
the date of issue of 2 cents per Share, being the market value of the Shares
as at the date that the valuation was prepared on 23 December 2013.
Since the date of the valuation the Share price has dropped to 1.5 cents
per Share (as at 15 January 2014) and there is a possibility that the market
price of the Shares on the date of issue of the Options will be different to the
assumed price of 2 cents used for the valuation.

Annexure A – Option Plan Summary

A summary of the rules of the Employee and Officer Share Option Plan ( Plan ) is as follows:

  1. All Directors, officers, employees and senior consultants (whether full- or part-time) will be eligible to participate in the Plan after a qualifying period of 12 months employment by the Company or its subsidiaries (or, in the case of a senior consultant, having provided consulting services to the Company or its subsidiaries on a continuous basis for at least 12 months), although the Board may waive this requirement.

  2. The allocation of options under the Plan ( Plan Options ) is at the discretion of the Board. 3. If permitted by the Board, Plan Options may be issued to a nominee of a Director, officer, employee or senior consultant (for example, to a spouse or family company).

  3. Each Plan Option allows the option holder to subscribe for one fully paid ordinary share in the Company and will expire 5 years after the date of issue of the Plan Option, or such other date as the Board determines in its discretion with respect to the Plan Option at the time of issue of the Plan Option.

  4. Plan Options will be issued for no consideration.

  5. The Plan Options may be exercised at any time after their issue.

  6. The Plan Options may be exercised wholly or in part by notice in writing to the Company received at any time during the exercise period together with a cheque for the exercise price and the Plan Option certificate (if any).

  7. The exercise price of Plan Options will be determined by the Board at the time the Board resolves to issue the Plan Options.

  8. The total number of shares the subject of Plan Options issued under the Plan, when aggregated with other Plan Options issued under the Plan during the previous 5 years (subject to certain exceptions), must not exceed 5% of the Company’s issued share capital at the time.

  10. (a) Board may determine to waive one or more or all of the exercise conditions attaching to the Plan Options; and

  11. (b) Plan Options held by that person (or their nominee) must be exercised within 30 days thereafter or they will automatically lapse (subject to the Board’s discretion to extend this period in respect of some or all of the Plan Options).

  12. If a person dies, the Plan Options held by that person will be exercisable by that person’s legal representative. Plan Options cannot be transferred other than to the legal personal representative of a deceased option holder.

  13. The Company will not apply for official quotation of any Plan Options.

  14. Shares issued as a result of the exercise of Plan Options will rank equally with the Company’s issued shares at the time.

  15. Option holders may only participate in new issues of securities by first exercising their Plan Options.

  16. If there is a bonus issue to the holders of shares, the number of shares over which a Plan Option is exercisable will be increased by the number of shares which the option holder would have received if the Plan Option had been exercised before the record date for the bonus issue.

  17. In the event of any reconstruction (including consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return) of the issued capital of the Company:

  18. a. the number of Plan Options, the exercise price of the Plan Options, or both will be reconstructed (as appropriate) in a manner consistent with the Listing Rules, but with the intention that such reconstruction will not result in any benefits being conferred on the holders of the Plan Options which are not conferred on shareholders; and

20

Annexure A – Option Plan Summary

  • b. subject to the provisions with respect to rounding of entitlements as sanctioned by a meeting of shareholders approving a reconstruction of capital, in all other respects the terms for the exercise of the Plan Options will remain unchanged.

  • If during the Life of an Option:

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

  • = the number of securities with rights or entitlements that must be held to receive a right to one new security

  • The terms of the Plan 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, the terms of the Plan Options shall not be changed to reduce the exercise price, increase the number of Plan Options or change any period for exercise of the Plan Options.
