LISTED OPTIONS TO EXPIRE 30 MARCH 2017
Emu NL (“Company”) (ASX: EMU) advises holders of listed options (exercisable at 10 cents each), that they will expire next week, on Thursday, 30 March 2017 .
The Company’s directors have now exercised their remaining listed options, investing an additional $488,000 in the Company’s share capital since early March.
Insync Equity Services Pty Ltd and Hartleys Limited have each agreed to unconditionally underwrite the exercise of 2 million options (4 million options in total between them).
Your option holding may be exercised in whole or in part by payment of $0.10 for each option. If payment is not received (in cleared funds) by 5:00pm (AWST) on 30 March 2017 the options will lapse and your rights under the options will cease at that time, in which case the options will, to the extent underwritten, be exercised by the underwriters
If you wish to sell your options on ASX prior to expiry, please note that quotation (trading) of the options will cease at the close of trading this Friday (24 March 2017).
If you wish to exercise your options then you must either:
-
a) complete your “Notice of Exercise of Options” form previously sent to you (or using a template option exercise notice form – see Emu ASX announcement of 9 Feb 2017) and forward it together with payment of $0.10 per option exercised to the Company’s share registry; or
-
b) pay $0.10 per option exercised by BPAY®;
in either case to be received no later than 5:00pm (AWST) on 30/03/17 by the Company’s share registry whose address is:
Security Transfer Australia Pty Ltd PO Box 52
Collins Street West VIC 8007.
You do not need to return a completed exercise form if you make payment via BPAY using your unique BPAY reference number (details set out on the reverse of the notice of expiry dated 21 Feb 2017) .
If you wish to ensure you don’t miss out on your opportunity to acquire fully paid Emu shares at 10 cents each, you are encouraged to exercise your options well before the expiry date in order to allow sufficient time for potential delays (caused, for example, by mail delays, missing BPay cut off times, delays by your bank in providing cleared BPay payments and notifications, uncleared or dishonoured cheques, incorrect paper work or posting to the wrong company address). Any electronic payment (including BPAY) initiated on the day of expiry (and possibly before the day of expiry) is unlikely to be received before the options expire.
Do not post to the Company’s registered office (level 2, 35 Outram Street, West Perth) or former registered office (20 Kings Park Road, West Perth).
It is the option holder's responsibility to ensure cleared funds (and, if applicable, completed exercise forms) are received by the Company’s share registry by the expiry date.
Should you have any queries please contact the Company’s share registrar on 1300 992 916 or email at [email protected].

ABOUT THE CHILE GOLD PROJECTS
The Vidalita and Jotahues gold projects are located in the highly mineralised Oligocene/Miocene Maricunga gold belt in northern Chile, approximately 200 km east from the city of Copiapó in the Atacama Region of Chile. The two projects cover an area of approximately 3,600 hectares of mineral exploration concessions and hosts alteration and mineralization that appears geologically similar to other high sulphidation oxide gold deposits of the Maricunga gold belt. The projects are accessed using a network of roads that link Copiapó with the Refugio project (Kinross), Cerro Casale project (Barrick/Kinross) and the Caspiche project (Exeter). Refugio is located 30 km to the northwest of Vidalita. As far as can be ascertained, due enquiry having been made, no drilling has been undertaken at Vidalita.

Emu has an option agreement with Prospex SpA and BLC SpA, Chilean subsidiaries of Altius Minerals Corporation of Canada, to acquire 11 concessions at Vidalita and 3 concessions at Jotahues. This option maybe exercised any time up until November 2019 by granting Prospex and BLC a 1% NSR on production and allotting them up to 15 million Emu ordinary shares subject to certain vesting conditions (see ASX release 15[th] November 2016). Prospex SpA in turn has an option to acquire 6 of the 11 Vidalita concessions from local Chilean parties. Under the terms of that agreement, Prospex has the right to exercise that option by November 2019 by paying US$2 million and granting the Chilean parties a 1% NSR over those 6 concessions. Under the Emu option agreement, Emu has assumed the rights and obligations of Prospex in relation to those 6 concessions.
