EMU NICKEL NL DETAILS OF THE OFFER

1. Details of the Offer

1.1.

The Rights Issue Offer and Nature of Contributing Shares

The Company is making a non-renounceable pro rata offer to issue up to 34,642,856 Contributing Shares (assuming no existing Options are exercised between the lodgement date of this Prospectus and the Record Date):

• on the basis of one Contributing Share for every one Share held at 5:00 pm (WST) on the Record Date; and

• with $0.03 per Contributing Share payable on application and an unpaid amount of $0.03 per Contributing Share which may be called by the Company in one or more instalments on a date or dates as determined by the Company (provided that the day on which a call is made falls after the first anniversary of the issue of the Contributing Shares),

to raise (before the costs of issue and disregarding any payments on account of the amount unpaid upon issue) up to $1,039,280.

A no liability company has, by force of statute, the following distinguishing characteristics:

• (a) a holder of shares in a no liability company has (as the name suggests) no liability to pay any of the share capital, either while the company is a going concern or in its winding up;

• (b) a shareholder can elect to pay a call - if a shareholder does not pay a call as and when made, the shares will be forfeited;

• (c) only a company whose constitution states that its sole objects are mining purposes can be a no liability type of company. “Mining purposes” are defined to include the following: (1) prospecting for ores, metals or minerals; (2) obtaining, by any mode or method, ores, metals or minerals; (3) the sale or other disposal of ores, metals, minerals or other products of mining; and (4) the carrying on of any business or activity necessary for, or incidental to, any of the foregoing purposes. Quarrying operations for the sole purpose of obtaining stone for building, road making or similar purposes are specifically excluded from the definition.

Subject to the foregoing, the Listing Rules and any inconsistent provisions of a company’s constitution, the rights and obligations attaching to and conferred by partly paid (or contributing) shares in the issued capital of a no liability company are determined by the terms upon which they are issued.

The terms of the Rights Issue Offer will create a new class of securities in the Company, being the Contributing Shares, which will, in essence, rank equally with Shares, other than as set out in Section 4.1 Upon the Contributing Shares becoming fully paid, they shall rank equally in all respects with Shares. A summary of the rights and liabilities attaching to the Contributing Shares is set out in Section 4.1 and a summary of the rights and liabilities attaching to Shares is set out in Section 4.2.

1.2.

Purpose of the Rights Issue Offer

Completion of the issue of Contributing Shares offered by this Prospectus will result in an increase in the cash on hand of up to $1,039,280 (before the payment of costs associated with the Rights Issue Offer and disregarding any payments on account of the amount unpaid upon issue).

Each Contributing Share will, upon issue, have an unpaid amount of $0.03, which amount will not be called in whole or in part until after the first anniversary of the issue of the Contributing Shares (see Section 4.1 for further details of the terms of Contributing Shares). If the Rights Issue Offer is fully subscribed and the entire amount unpaid upon issue is ultimately paid in full then that will raise an additional $1,039,280.

As foreshadowed in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report, its September 2012 Quarterly Report and more recently as announced to the ASX on 28 December 2012, the Company has been and is currently assessing several present or near term cash producing mining projects. While none of these opportunities has crystallised, it is the Board’s intention to pursue this strategy until a project meeting the Board’s criteria of early cashflow is realised.

5

EMU NICKEL NL DETAILS OF THE OFFER

As announced to the ASX on 28 December 2012, the Rights Issue Offer is intended to:

• augment Emu’s available working capital for purposes generally;

• place Emu in a stronger position to pursue its goal of securing a current or near term cash producing mining asset;

• help fund its current activity (consistent with said goal) of investigating numerous mining and development opportunities (principally in Africa) including diamond operations (including several separate, discrete and entirely unrelated primary kimberlite, tailings retreatment and alluvial operations) and tantalite exploration/development projects;

• provide Shareholders with what the Board believes to be a well priced leveraged opportunity to address the oft expressed concern of shareholders (at large) that placements to sophisticated and professional investors deny ordinary shareholders the opportunity to subscribe for new issues at wholesale prices thus diluting their interests;

• seek to avoid, within regulatory constraints, the usual pattern of the price of ordinary fully paid shares drifting down to meet the offer price; and

• provide a seamless, albeit limited, mechanism for future capital raising.

At the date of this prospectus, the Company had $3,000,000 cash at bank. Existing funds of the Company and proceeds from the Offer are currently the only sources of funds to finance the stated objectives of the Company.

1.3. The Placement Offer and Nature of Shares

By this Prospectus, the Company invites investors identified by the Directors to apply for up to 1,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.07 per Share payable in full on application to raise $70 (before costs of issue). All of the Shares offered under the Placement Offer will rank equally with Shares on issue at the date of this Prospectus (see Section 4.2 for further details of the terms of Shares).

1.4.

Purpose of the Placement Offer

The Company is seeking to raise only a nominal amount of $70 (before costs of issue) under the Placement Offer. The primary purpose of the Placement Offer is to remove any trading restrictions that may have attached to the Shares issued by the Company under the Placement (which was made to Peter Thomas and Greg Steemson, two Directors of the Company, pursuant to approval granted by Shareholders at the Company’s annual general meeting on 30 November 2012 and as announced to the market on 28 December 2012).

Generally, section 707(3) of the Corporations Act requires a prospectus to be issued if securities are offered for sale within 12 months after their issue and the issue of those securities is without disclosure (e.g. via a prospectus) to investors under Chapter 6D of the Corporations Act.

Section 708A(5) of the Corporations Act provides that a sale offer does not need disclosure to investors if:

• (a) the relevant securities are in a class of securities that were quoted securities at all times in the 3 months before the day on which the relevant securities were issued;

• (b) trading in that class of securities on a prescribed financial market on which they were quoted was not suspended for more than a total of 5 days during the shorter of the period during which the class of securities were quoted, and the period of 12 months before the day on which the relevant securities were issued;

• (c) the Company has not been exempted by ASIC from the continuous disclosure provisions at any time during the relevant period referred to in paragraph (b);

• (d) the Company or any person as director or auditor of the body has not been exempted from or received an instrument of modification in relation to the financial reporting provisions at any time during the relevant period referred to in paragraph (b); and

• (e) (relevantly) the Company gives the relevant market operator for the Company a notice that complies with section 708A(6) of the Corporations Act before the sale offer is made.

6

EMU NICKEL NL DETAILS OF THE OFFER

The Company was suspended from 4 April 2012 to 22 May 2012 (inclusive) to allow the Company to re-comply with Chapters 1 and 2 of the Listing Rules due to a proposed change in activities, details of which are referred to in the Notice of General Meeting dated 6 March 2012. However, despite the Board’s continuing confidence in the Hillgrove asset which comprised the proposed transaction which was to change the Company’s activities, the transaction was terminated and the Company’s securities were reinstated for quotation on the ASX. Please refer to ASX Release dated 22 May 2012 for more information.

Accordingly, the Company has been suspended for more than 5 days during the past 12 months and may therefore not rely on section 708A(5) of the Corporations Act.

However, further and relevantly, section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act provides that a sale offer does not need disclosure to investors if:

• (a) the relevant securities are in a class of securities that are quoted securities of the body; and

• (b) either:

• (i) a prospectus is lodged with ASIC on or after the day on which the relevant securities were issued but before the day on which the sale offer is made; or

• (ii) a prospectus is lodged with ASIC before the day on which the relevant securities are issued and offers of securities that have been made under the prospectus are still open for acceptance on the day on which the relevant securities were issued; and

• (c) the prospectus is for an offer of securities issued by the body that are in the same class of securities as the relevant securities.

The purpose of the Placement Offer is therefore to comply with section 708A(11) and to remove any trading restrictions on the sale of any Shares issued by the Company under the Placement.

1.5. Your Entitlement under the Rights Issue Offer

Eligible Shareholders (being those Shareholders who are on the Company’s share register at 5.00pm (WST) on the Record Date, being 21 January 2013) will receive rights to acquire one Contributing Share for every one Share held. The Entitlement of Eligible Shareholders is shown on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form sent to them with this Prospectus.

Your Entitlement may be accepted in whole or in part prior to the Closing Date subject to the rights of the Company to extend the Offer period. Instructions for accepting your Entitlement are set out in Section 2 and on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form which accompanies this Prospectus.

1.6.

How to Apply for the Placement Offer

An application for Shares pursuant to the Placement Offer must only be made by investors at the direction of the Company and must be made using the relevant Application Form. The Directors reserve the right to issue Shares pursuant to the Placement Offer at their absolute discretion. Accordingly, do not submit an Application Form in respect of the Placement Offer unless directed to do so by the Directors.

Payment for Shares pursuant to the Placement Offer must be made in full at the issue price of $0.07 per Share. Completed Application Forms must be mailed or delivered to the Company to the address set out on the Application Form by no later than 5.00pm (WST) on the Closing Date.

1.7.

No Rights Trading

The Rights Issue Offer is non-renounceable, and therefore the Entitlements are not transferable and cannot be traded on the ASX or any other exchange or privately transferred. If you do not take up all or part of your Entitlement to Contributing Shares under the Rights Issue Offer by the Closing Date, the Rights Issue Offer to you will lapse.

1.8.

Shortfall Securities

The Directors do not intend to issue any Shortfall Securities.

7

EMU NICKEL NL DETAILS OF THE OFFER

1.9. Opening and Closing Dates

The Opening Date of the Offer will be 23 January 2013 and the Closing Date will be 5.00 pm WST (2.00pm (WST) for BPAY®) on 8 February 2013. Subject to the requirements of the Listing Rules, the Directors reserve the right to close the Offer early or extend the Closing Date (as the case may be).

1.10. Dilution consequent upon the Offer

Shareholders who take up their Entitlement in full will not have their percentage holding in the Company diluted as a result of the Rights Issue Offer. Shareholders who do not take up their Entitlement in full will have their percentage holding in the Company diluted as a result of the Rights Issue Offer. Dilution as a consequence of the Placement Offer will be infinitesimal.

Refer to Section 3.1 of this Prospectus for further details in relation to the proposed capital structure following completion of the Offer.

1.11. Allotment and Application Money

A Contributing Share or Share will only be issued after the Application Money in respect of that security has been received. The expected date for the issue of Contributing Shares and Shares appears in the proposed timetable at page 4 of this Prospectus.

All Application Money received before Contributing Shares and Shares are issued will be held in a special purpose account for the purpose of depositing Application Money. After any Application Money is refunded (if required) and Contributing Shares and Shares are issued to Applicants, the balance of funds in the account plus accrued interest will be for the benefit of the Company.

1.12. Minimum Subscription

There is no minimum subscription for the Offer.

1.13. Underwriter

The Offer is not underwritten.

1.14. ASX quotation

The Contributing Shares will constitute a new class of unlisted security. Upon the Contributing Shares becoming fully paid they will form part of the same class of fully paid ordinary shares already quoted on the ASX and the Company will make application for them to be quoted on the ASX.

The Shares issued pursuant to the Placement Offer will form part of the same class of fully paid ordinary shares already quoted on the ASX. Application for the Official Quotation of the Shares pursuant to the Placement Offer will be made within 7 days after the date of this Prospectus. If permission is not granted by ASX for Official Quotation, within 3 months after the date of this Prospectus (or such period as varied by ASIC), the Company will not issue any Shares and will repay, as soon as practicable, without interest, all Application Money received in respect of the Placement Offer pursuant to this Prospectus in full.

The fact that ASX may agree to grant Official Quotation of the Shares is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the merits of the Company or the Shares.

Depending upon the likely impact of any proposed acquisition upon the nature or scale of the Company’s activities, Listing Rule 11 may be invoked the consequences of which are in the discretion of the ASX but include the quotation of the Company’s securities being suspended and the Company having to meet the requirements in Chapters 1 and 2 of the Listing Rules as if the Company were applying for admission to the official list which the Company could avoid by voluntarily removing itself from the official list. The Rights Issue Offer is not contingent on the continuing quotation of the Company’s securities.

1.15. CHESS

The Company will not be issuing share certificates. The Company is a participant in CHESS for those investors who have a sponsoring stockbroker. Investors who do not wish to participate through CHESS will be issuer sponsored by the Company. Because the sub-registers are electronic, ownership of securities can be transferred without having to rely upon paper documentation.

8

EMU NICKEL NL DETAILS OF THE OFFER

Electronic registers mean that the Company will not be issuing certificates to investors. Instead, investors will be provided with separate statements (similar to a bank account statement) that set out the number of Contributing Shares issued to them under this Prospectus. The notice will also advise holders of their Holder Identification Number or Security Holder Reference Number and explain, for future reference, the sale and purchase procedures under CHESS and issuer sponsorship.

Further monthly statements will be provided to holders if there have been any changes in their security holding in the Company during the preceding month.

1.16.

Market price of Shares

The Company is a disclosing entity for the purposes of the Corporations Act and its Shares are enhanced disclosure securities quoted on ASX.

The highest, lowest and last market sale prices of the Company’s existing Shares on the ASX during three months immediately preceding the lodgement of this Prospectus with ASIC and the respective dates of those sales were:

	3 months high	3 month low	Last market sale price
Shares	$0.078 on 14 December 2012	$0.065 on 24 – 30 October & 2 – 12 November 2012	$0.074 on 10 January 2013

1.17. Major activities and financial information

A summary of the major activities and financial information relating to the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2012 is in the Annual Financial Report which was lodged with ASX on 1 October 2012.

The Company's continuous disclosure notices (i.e. ASX announcements) since 1 October 2012 provide information on the major activities and financial information relating to the Company since the financial year ended 30 June 2012 and are listed in Section 4.4.

Copies of these documents are available free of charge from the Company. Directors strongly recommend that Shareholders and investors review these and all other announcements prior to deciding whether or not to participate in the Offer.

EMU NICKEL NL ACTION REQUIRED BY SHAREHOLDERS

2. Action required by Shareholders

2.1.

What Eligible Shareholders may do:

The number of Contributing Shares to which Eligible Shareholders are entitled (your Entitlement) is shown on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form accompanying this Prospectus. If you do not take up your Entitlement, then your percentage holding in the Company will be diluted.

As an Eligible Shareholder, you may:

• take up all of your Entitlement (refer to Section 2.2);

• take up part of your Entitlement and allow the balance to lapse (refer to Section 2.3);

• allow all of your Entitlement to lapse (refer to Section 2.4).

2.2.

If you wish to take up all of your Entitlement

If you wish to take up all of your Entitlement, complete the accompanying Entitlement and Acceptance Form for Contributing Shares in accordance with the instructions set out in that form and arrange for payment of the Application Money in accordance with Section 2.5. If you elect to pay by BPay®, you do not need to return the Entitlement and Acceptance Form but you will be deemed to have accepted your Entitlements upon receipt of the BPay® payment.

2.3.

Taking up part of your Entitlement and allowing the balance to lapse

If you wish to take up part of your Entitlement and allow the balance to lapse, complete the accompanying Entitlement and Acceptance Form by filling out the number of Contributing Shares you wish to take up and arrange for payment for the Application Money (calculated at $0.03 per Contributing Share accepted) in accordance with Section 2.5. If you take no further action, the balance of your Entitlement will lapse.

2.4.

If you do not wish to accept any of your Entitlement

If you do not wish to accept any of your Entitlement, you are not obliged to do anything. The number of Shares you hold as at the Record Date and the rights attached to those Shares will not be affected should you choose not to accept any of your Entitlement but you will receive no Contributing Shares.

THERE IS NO OBLIGATION TO PAY ANY UNPAID AMOUNT but failure to meet any call will result in the Contributing Shares being forfeited.

Completed Entitlement and Acceptance Forms must be accompanied by a cheque in Australian dollars, crossed “ Not Negotiable ” and made payable to “ Emu Nickel NL ” and lodged and received at the Company’s share registry (by delivery or by post) no later than 5.00pm (WST) on the Closing Date :

2.6. Application Form is binding

A completed and lodged Application Form constitutes a binding offer to acquire Contributing Shares or Shares on the terms and conditions set out in this Prospectus and, once lodged, cannot be withdrawn. If the Application Form is not completed correctly, it may still be treated as a valid application for Contributing Shares or Shares. The Directors’ decision whether to treat an acceptance as valid and how to construe, amend or complete the Application Form is final.

By completing and returning your Entitlement and Acceptance Form with the requisite Application Money, you will be deemed to have represented and warranted on behalf of yourself or each person on whose account you are acting that the law in your place of residence and/or where you have been given the Prospectus, does not prohibit you from being given the Prospectus and that you:

Rights:	Irrespective of whether the Company has made a Call for the payment of all or any of the unpaid amount, each Contributing Share: a) carries the right to participate in new issues (except bonus issues) of securities made to holders of Shares as if the Contributing Shares were fully paid Shares; b) carries the right to participate in bonus issues of securities in the proportion which the amount paid (or, if applicable, aggregate of amounts paid) (not credited) bears to the total of the amounts paid and payable and each holder (“Holder”) of a Contributing Share will be notified by the Company of any proposed bonus issue of securities at least 7 days prior to the record date for any such issue; c) entitles the Holder to (i) exercise voting rights on a pro-rata basis in the proportion which the amount (or, if applicable, aggregate of amounts) paid bears to the total of the amounts paid and payable; and (ii) fully participate in dividends as if the Contributing Shares were a fully paid Share; d) is freely transferable; e) upon being paid up in full shall rank equally in all respects with Shares then on issue and the Company shall promptly apply for them to be listed on the ASX (and each or any other exchange on which shares of the Company are traded).
Payment before a Call:	A Holder may pay up the whole of the amount remaining unpaid at any time PROVIDED THAT they may only do so in parcels: a) of not less than 50,000; or b) of less than 50,000 if the parcel has been held by the holder since its issue, it represents the Holder’s entire holding of Contributing Shares and the Holder has not previously paid up any Contributing Shares; otherwise no amount unpaid may be paid in advance of a Call without the leave of the Board (which leave may be granted with or without reason and either with or without conditions) - the Board shall have no obligation to consider any application for leave. The Company shall not be obliged to process payments without a Call more than once every three months.

Listing of Contributing Shares:	The Company may apply to list the Contributing Shares at its election and shall do so upon request in that regard being made by a Holder(s) of 5% or more of the outstanding Contributing Shares PROVIDED THAT the conditions to listing the same (save for the application that they be listed) have been met.
Compliance with Listing Rules:	For so long as the Company is admitted to the official list of ASX, the following paramount provisions will apply: a) notwithstanding anything contained in these terms of issue, if the ASX listing rules (in the form and context in which they exist as at the date the first Contributing Share is issued) (“Existing Rules”) prohibit an act from being done, the act shall not be done; b) nothing contained in these terms of issue prevent an act being done that the Existing Rules require to be done; c) if the Existing Rules require an act to be done or not be done, authority is given for that act to be done or not done as the case may be; d) if the Existing Rules require these terms of issue to contain a provision and it does not contain such a provision, these terms of issue are deemed to contain such a provision; e) if the Existing Rules require these terms of issue not to contain a provision and it contains such a provision, these terms of issue are deemed not to contain that provision; and f) if any provision of these terms of issue is inconsistent with the Existing Rules, these terms of issue are deemed not to contain that provision to the extent of the inconsistency.
Interpretation:	The Contributing Shares are subject to the terms of the Constitution but if there is any inconsistency between the Constitution and these terms of issue, then to the maximum extent permitted by law, these terms of issue will prevail.

4.3 Nature of this Prospectus

This Prospectus is a ‘transaction specific prospectus’ to which the special content rules in section 713 of the Corporations Act apply. This enables listed disclosing entities, such as the Company, to issue a prospectus for continuously quoted securities and options to acquire continuously quoted securities with modified disclosure requirements if they satisfy certain requirements. This Rights Issue Offer is not for continuously quoted securities, however, ASIC has made an instrument under section 741(1)(a) to exempt the Company from having to comply with section 710 of the Corporations Act in relation to a rights issue of partly paid ordinary shares (on terms substantially the same as terms provided to ASIC in correspondence), on the condition, amongst others, that the offer is made pursuant to a transaction specific prospectus lodged with ASIC. Please refer to Sections 1.2 and 1.4 for the purpose of the issue of this Prospectus.

The information in this Prospectus principally concerns the terms and conditions of the Offer and the information reasonably necessary to make an informed assessment of:

• (a) the effect of the Offer on the Company; and

• (b) the rights and liabilities attaching to the Contributing Shares and Shares offered pursuant to this Prospectus.

This Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Shareholders should therefore also have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision on whether or not to invest in the Company.

(b) Fees and Benefits - Directors

No portion of any amount paid or agreed to be paid by anyone to any director was paid or payable in connection with the formation or promotion of the Company or the Offer. Further no such amount is capable of being apportioned as having been paid or payable in connection with the formation or promotion of the Company or the Offer.

Accordingly, as it is the duty of every director to promote the Company and each director has been involved in the process of the making of the Offer, this Prospectus discloses all amounts any portion of which could conceivably have been apportioned in any degree as having any of the relevant connections.

From the time of incorporation of the Company it has paid or provided to the Directors of the Company (at the date of this Prospectus) and their associates as follows:

(i) Mr Steemson’s associated company, Steemson Geoscience Pty Ltd the aggregate sum of $214,050 on account the provision of Mr Steemson’s ad hoc services (including his service as a director to the date the managing directors agreement came into effect);

(ii) the above amount includes entitlements and payments under the managing directors contract which came into force on 1 December 2012;

(iii) Mr Rutherford (appointed 6 December 2012) has not been but is entitled to be paid the aggregate sum of $2,329 on account of directors fees;

(iv) Mr Thomas (a founding director of the Company) has been paid on account of directors fees the aggregate sum of $279,047 (including superannuation at the required statutory rate);

(v) Mr Thomas has been paid $167,671 fees for special exertion services;

19

EMU NICKEL NL ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

(vi) Mr Sakalidis (a founding director of the Company) has been paid an amount of $260,251 on account of directors fees;

(vii) Leeman Pty Ltd, a company associated with Mr Sakalidis, the aggregate amount of $199,057 on account of services rendered to the Company by Mr Sakalidis;

(viii) the Company contributed to the cost of Mr Sakalidis/Leeman Pty Ltd being provided with a fully serviced dedicated office, secure car parking, computer equipment and associated services and benefits where Emu assesses the cost to it of such provisions was in the order of $220,000;

(ix) prior to the listing of the Company, each of Messrs Thomas and Sakalidis (or nominee) was granted 919,287 (as reconstructed) options expiring 13 February 2013 exercisable at $1.0878 per option. Mr Thomas appointed a nominee to whom the options were granted and Mr Thomas did and does not have a relevant interest in those options. At the time these options were granted a value was not ascertainable as (a) the Shares then had a value of $0.01 and were not traded; (b) at there was then no certainty that the Company would succeed in its plan to transform from a mere shell; (c) the options then had an exercise price of $0.50 and could not be traded for 2 years in the event of the Company listing as they would be escrowed; and

(x) in December 2009 the Company granted to Messrs Thomas and Sakalidis (or their nominees) respectively 183,585 and 252,804 (as reconstructed) options expiring 22 December 2014 exercisable at $0.5874 per option.

The cost of the equity-remuneration transactions referred to in points (ix) and (x) was measured by reference to the “fair value” (not market value) at the date at which they were granted. The “fair value” was determined in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards by an internal valuation using a Black-Scholes (or similarly recognised) model for pricing options and a market price for ordinary shares. The Directors do not consider the resultant value as determined by the Black-Scholes European Option Pricing Model is in anyway representative of the market value of the share options issued, however, in the absence of a reliable measure of the goods or services received, AASB 2: Share Based Payments prescribes the measurement of the fair value of the equity instruments granted. The Black-Scholes European Option Pricing Model was an industry accepted method of valuing equity instruments, at the date of grant. The values thus derived were $22,000 for Mr Thomas’ 2014 options and $30,250 for Mr Sakalidis’ 2014 options.

The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to Non-Executive Directors is subject to approval by shareholders at a General Meeting. Until Shareholders approve otherwise, total directors' fees paid to all non-executive directors is not to exceed $250,000 per annum.

Directors fees (plus superannuation) for the Chairman, Mr Thomas, are presently set at $5,000 per month, for Mr Rutherford and Mr Sakalidis $2,500 per month each.

Information regarding the remuneration received by Directors for the preceding two financial years can be found in the 2012 Annual Report.

Mr Steemson has entered into a services agreement with the Company with respect to his engagement as Managing Director. Pursuant to that services agreement, Steemson Geoscience Pty Ltd, a company controlled by Mr Steemson, is paid fees of $30,000 per month to provide the services of Mr Steemson as Managing Director.

(c) Other interests

The Company has entered or agreed to enter into Deeds of Indemnity, Access and Insurance on standard terms with each of its current directors. Those deeds do or will indemnify these Directors in respect of certain liabilities and legal expenses incurred by them whilst acting as Directors and insures them against certain risks they are exposed to as Directors. The Company has paid insurance premiums to insure each of the Directors against liabilities for costs and expenses incurred by them in defending any legal proceedings while acting in the capacity of a Director.
