EMU NL Explanatory Statement for Notice of General Meeting to be held 29 August 2018

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement accompanies and comprises part of the notice ( Notice ) convening a General Meeting ( Meeting ) of Shareholders of Emu NL to be held 29 August 2018.

Capitalised terms and abbreviations used in this Explanatory Statement will, unless the context requires, have the same meaning as given to them in the Glossary.

RESOLUTION 1 – APPROVE ISSUE OF SHARES TO DIRECTORS

1.1 General

If these resolutions are passed, the Company may issue (and may agree), to issue to each or any of Peter Thomas, Gregory Steemson and Gavin Rutherford ( Related Parties ) or their nominees a total of up to 3,125,001 fully paid ordinary Shares at an issue price of $0.048 per Share.

ASX Listing Rule 10.11 requires (subject to certain exceptions) shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a related party of the entity, or a person whose relationship with the entity or a related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained.

Section 208 of the Corporations Act provides that, for a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:

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

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

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

Section 210 provides that member approval is not needed to give a financial benefit on terms that:

  • (a) would be reasonable in the circumstances if the public company or entity and the related party were dealing at arm’s length; or

  • (b) are less favourable to the related party than the terms referred to in paragraph (a).

The directors are of the opinion that the giving of this financial benefit is reasonable in the circumstances and is commensurate with other issues of shares on an arm’s length basis. The terms of the proposed issue were agreed, subject to shareholder approval, at the same time as the issue of Tranche 1 Placement Shares to unrelated sophisticated and wholesale investors detailed in clause 7.1 of this Explanatory Statement.

The Directors urge any shareholders who regard this financial benefit to be not at arms length to vote against this resolution.

Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required in order to issue the Shares to the Related Parties as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of the Shares to the Related Parties will not be included in the calculation of the Company’s annual 15% Placement Capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

1.2 Specific Information pursuant to Listing Rule 10.13

Pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issues of Shares:

  • (a) the related parties are Messrs Peter Thomas, Gregory Steemson and Gavin Rutherford and they are related parties by virtue of being Directors;

  • (b) the maximum number of Shares (being the nature of the financial benefit being provided) to be granted to the Related Parties (or their nominees) is:

  • (i) up to 1,041,667 Shares to Mr Thomas;

  • (ii) up to 1,041,667 Shares to Mr Steemson; and

  • (iii) up to 1,041,667 Shares to Mr Rutherford.

These numbers are proposed because they wished to but were precluded from participating to that extent in the recent placement at the same price;

6 | P a g e

EMU NL Explanatory Statement for Notice of General Meeting to be held 29 August 2018

  • (c) no Shares will be issued to the Related Parties under this authority later than 1 month after the date of the General Meeting (or such later date as may be permitted by ASX);

  • (d) the Shares will, if issued, be issued for $0.048 (cash) per Share;

  • (e) the Shares, if issued, will be fully paid ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company and will rank equally in all respects with the Company’s existing Shares on issue;

  • (f) the purposes of seeking the approval is to afford the Related Parties the opportunity to subscribe for a limited number of shares on the same terms as they could have done pursuant to the most recent placement by Emu had they not been prohibited from doing so by the rules of the ASX;

  • (g) the funds raised from any issue of Shares are intended to be applied towards further exploration work on Emu’s exploration projects, to pay for corporate expenses, and possibly to take advantage of new opportunities as they arise (such as new projects).

1.3 Directors Recommendation

Messrs Thomas, Steemson and Rutherford decline to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to this Resolution due to their personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution SAVE they urge shareholders who regard this financial benefit to be not at arms length to vote against this resolution.

RESOLUTION 2 – SECTION 195 APPROVAL

Section 195 of the Corporations Act relevantly provides that a director of a public company may not vote or be present during meetings of directors when matters in which that director holds a “material personal interest” are being considered, except in certain circumstances or unless non-interested directors pass a resolution approving the interested director’s participation. However, section 195(4) relevantly provides that if there are not enough directors to form a quorum for a directors meeting because of this restriction, one or more of the directors may call a general meeting and the general meeting may pass a resolution to deal with the matter.

Messrs Thomas, Steemson and Rutherford have a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 1. In the absence of this Resolution 2, the Directors may not be able to form a quorum at directors’ meetings necessary to carry out the transactions and related matters contemplated by Resolution 1.

For the avoidance of any doubt and for the purpose of transparency and best practice corporate governance, the Directors have exercised their right under section 195(4) of the Corporations Act to put the issue to Shareholders to resolve. This will authorise the Directors to effect the transactions and carry out related matters contemplated in this Notice of Meeting even if some or all of them have a material personal interest in the transaction or matter.

Messrs Thomas, Steemson and Rutherford decline to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to this Resolution due to their personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 1.

RESOLUTIONS 3 – RATIFICATION OF ISSUE OF OPTIONS

3.1 General

On 6 December 2017, the Company announced a $600,000 capital raising through the issue of 4,000,000 fully paid ordinary Shares at an issue price of $0.15 per share together with a free Option (to acquire a listed Contributing Share on or before 30 April 2018 by paying $0.03 with a further $0.03 being payable upon call, no call to be made before 31 December 2018) for every 2 Shares subscribed for by sophisticated and professional investors under section 708 of the Corporations Act.

The Company issued the 4,000,000 fully paid ordinary Shares with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1. The Shareholder approval was received at the Company’s 2018 annual general meeting held on 9 November 2018. The 2,000,004 Options were issued without prior Shareholder approval out of its 15% placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

7 | P a g e

EMU NL Explanatory Statement for Notice of General Meeting to be held 29 August 2018

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the above issue of Options.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 permits the ratification of previous issues of securities made without prior shareholder approval provided the issue did not breach the 15% threshold set by Listing Rule 7.1 or the 10% threshold set by Listing Rule 7.1A (as the case may be). The purpose and effect of such a ratification is to restore the Company’s discretionary power to issue further shares up to 15% of the issued capital of the Company under Listing Rule 7.1 and up to a further 10% of the issued capital of the Company under Listing Rule 7.1A (as the case may be) without requiring Shareholder approval.

  • (e) no funds were raised from the issue.

3.3 Directors Recommendation

The Directors of the Company believe that this Resolution is in the best interests of the Company and unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolution.

RESOLUTIONS 4 – RATIFICATION OF ISSUES OF SHARES TO ACUITY CAPITAL

4.1 General

In July 2017, the Company entered into a Controlled Placement Agreement ( CPA ) with Acuity Capital Investment Management Pty Ltd ( Acuity ) under which the Company might (if, when and at a price or prices in one or more tranches) at its sole discretion raise up to $2 million prior to 31 December 2019 (refer to June 2017 quarterly activities report). There is no requirement for the Company to utilise the CPA, which it may terminate at any time, without cost or penalty. The CPA does not contractually restrict EMU’s ability to otherwise raise capital. Each time the Company elects (if at all) to utilise the CPA, it will (in its sole discretion) set a floor price. The final issue price will be the greater of the floor price and a discount of 10% to the volume weighted average on market sale price realised by Acuity over a period nominated by the Company.

On 15 December 2017, the Company issued 4,000,000 fully paid ordinary Shares ( Collateral Shares ) at nil issue price to Acuity Capital under section 708 of the Corporations Act pursuant to the CPA. The Collateral Shares were issued as collateral for the CPA and the Company may, at any time, cancel the CPA and buy back, or at its option, cancel the Collateral Shares, in each case for no consideration (but if required, subject to shareholder approval) or require the Collateral Shares to be transferred to a third party without any consideration being due or payable to Acuity Capital.

The Company issued the securities without prior Shareholder approval out of its 15% placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the above securities issues.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 permits the ratification of previous issues of securities made without prior shareholder approval provided the issue did not breach the 15% threshold set by Listing Rule 7.1 or the 10% threshold set by Listing Rule 7.1A (as the case may be). The purpose and effect of such a ratification is to restore the Company’s discretionary power to issue further shares up to 15% of the issued capital of the Company under Listing Rule 7.1 and up to a further 10% of the issued capital of the Company under Listing Rule 7.1A (as the case may be) without requiring Shareholder approval.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that number which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period (adjusted for certain events over that 12 month period).

The effect of Resolution 8 will be to authorise the Directors to issue a limited number of Shares (subject to the specified pricing constraint being met and within 3 months of the Meeting or such later date as approved by ASX) without using the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 or its 10% Placement Capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A.

8.2 Information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.3

The following information is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.3. If the Resolution is passed:

  • (a) the Company will issue up to 8,143,168 fully paid ordinary Shares;

  • (b) the Shares will be issued as soon as possible after the Meeting;

  • (c) the issue price will be $0.048 per Share;

  • (d) the Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares and rank equally with all other Shares on issue;

  • (e) the Shares will be issued to numerous professional and sophisticated investors who are not related parties of the Company; and

  • (f) the funds raised are intended to be applied towards further exploration work on Emu’s exploration projects, to pay for corporate expenses, and possibly to take advantage of new opportunities as they arise (such as new projects).

8.3 Directors Recommendation

The Directors of the Company believe that this Resolution is in the best interests of the Company and unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolution.

9.1 General

Emu continues to search for new mineral exploration, development and mining opportunities within Australia and at various overseas jurisdictions.

The effect of Resolution 9 will be to authorise the Directors to issue a limited number of Shares (subject to the specified pricing constraint being met and within 3 months of the Meeting or such later date as approved by ASX) without using the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 or its 10% Placement Capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A. The Company will not be obligated to utilise this authority.

  • (i) the date on which the issue is made; or

  • (ii) if there is a prospectus relating to the issue, the date of the prospectus;

(the actual issue price, if any, may be higher – and the Directors will endeavour to procure this);

  • (d) the Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares and rank equally with all other Shares on issue;

  • (e) subject to the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rules, the Shares will be issued at the discretion of the Directors to persons who have not been identified as at the date of this Notice but who will not be related parties of the Company;

Therefore, no existing Shareholder’s votes will be excluded under the voting exclusion in the Notice.

9.3 Other information

By way of example, the volume weighted average market price of the Shares on ASX over the last 5 days on which sales in the Shares were recorded up to and including 27 July 2018 (the last trading day prior to the date of this Notice) was 6.7 cents.
