EXPLANATORY STATEMENT TO SHAREHOLDERS

1. ACTION TO BE TAKEN BY SHAREHOLDERS

This Explanatory Statement sets out information about the Resolutions to be considered by the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Defined terms used in this Explanatory Statement are set out in Section 9. Accompanying this Explanatory Statement is the Notice of Annual General Meeting convening the Annual General Meeting and a Proxy Form.

Shareholders are encouraged to attend and vote on the Resolutions to be put to the Annual General Meeting. If a Shareholder is not able to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting, the Shareholder may complete the Proxy Form and return it not later than 48 hours before the time specified for the commencement of the Annual General Meeting.

2. ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORTS

The Corporations Act requires the Company’s financial statements and reports of the Directors and of the auditor for the year ended 30 June 2015 to be laid before the Annual General Meeting. The financial statements and the reports of the Directors and of the auditor are contained in the Company’s 2015 Annual Report, a copy of which is available on the Company’s website at www.enterprisemetals.com.au.

Whilst no Resolution is required in relation to this item, Shareholders should consider the documents and raise any matters of interest with the Directors when this item is being considered.

A representative from the Company’s auditors will be invited to the meeting and Shareholders will have an opportunity to ask the auditor questions in relation to the conduct of the audit, the auditor’s report, the Company’s accounting policies and the independence of the auditor.

3. RESOLUTION 1: ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT

The Remuneration Report is required to be considered for adoption in accordance with section 250R of the Corporations Act. The Remuneration Report sets out the Company’s remuneration arrangements for the Directors and senior management of the Company. The Remuneration Report is part of the Directors’ Report contained in the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ending 30 June 2015.

A reasonable opportunity will be given for the discussion of the Remuneration Report at the Annual General Meeting. Shareholders should note that the vote on this Resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Company or the Directors.

If at least 25% of the votes cast on the Resolution are voted against adoption of the Remuneration Report at the Annual General Meeting, and then again at the Company's 2016 annual general meeting, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of an extraordinary general meeting to consider the appointment of Directors of the Company (“Spill Resolution”). If more than 50% of Shareholders vote in favour of the Spill Resolution, the Company must convene the extraordinary general meeting (“Spill Meeting”) within 90 days of the Company's 2016 annual general meeting. All of the Directors who were in office when the Company's 2015 Directors' Report was approved, other than the Managing Director of the Company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting. Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or reelection as Directors is approved will be the Directors of the Company.

The Company’s Shareholders have approved the Remuneration Report at each previous annual general meeting.

A Spill Resolution will not be required at this Annual General Meeting as the votes against the Remuneration Report at the Company’s 2014 annual general meeting were less than 25%.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

  • 6 -

==> picture [231 x 57] intentionally omitted <==

4. RESOLUTION 2: RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTOR – DR ALLAN TRENCH

Clause 16.4(a) of the Constitution requires that at the Company's annual general meeting in every year, onethird of the Directors, except the Managing Director, must retire from office provided that no Director may hold office without re-election past the third AGM following the Director’s appointment or 3 years, whichever is longer. The Directors to retire at an annual general meeting are those who have been longest in office since their last appointment, but, as between persons who became Directors on the same day, those to retire shall (unless they otherwise agreed amongst themselves) be determined by drawing lots. A Director who retires by rotation under clause 16.4(a) of the Constitution is eligible for re-election.

In accordance with clause 16.4(a) of the Constitution and ASX Listing Rule 14.4, Dr Allan Trench is required to retire and being eligible for election, offers himself for re-election.

From 2002 Dr Trench worked as a business consultant for McKinsey and Company, then as a manager at KCGM Pty Ltd and Woodside Petroleum, and more lately as a consultant with CRU Group, providing business analysis and intelligence on the global mining and metals and markets. He is currently Adjunct Professor (Spatial Sciences) at WASM Curtin University, Research Professor Progressive Risk & Value Centre for Exploration Targeting at the University of Western Australia and Professor Department of Energy & Mineral Economics at Curtin University’s Graduate School of Business. He is also non-executive independent director of a number of emerging overseas and Australian-listed resources companies including ASX listed Pioneer Resources Limited, Hot Chili Limited and Emmerson Resources Limited.

7. RESOLUTIONS 5 AND 6: APPROVAL OF ISSUE OF SHARES IN LIEU OF OUTSTANDING DIRECTORS’ FEES TO DR JINGBIN WANG AND DR ALLAN TRENCH

7.1 Background

Resolutions 5 and 6 seek Shareholder approval in accordance with Listing Rule 10.11 for issue of a total of 1,500,000 Shares to Enterprise Directors Dr Wang and Dr Trench (or their nominees). This issue of Shares provides a means by which the Company can satisfy 50% of the outstanding Directors’ fees for the period 1 January 2015 to 31 December 2015 owed to Dr Wang and Dr Trench thereby preserving the Company’s cash resources for application in other areas.

7.2 Details of Shares to be issued

It is proposed under Resolutions 5 and 6 that a total of 1,500,000 Shares be issued to Dr Wang and Dr Trench (or their nominees) in lieu of outstanding Directors’ fees as set out in the table below. The Shares are proposed to be issued for a deemed issue price of $0.032 per Share representing the five day volume weighted average market price (VWAP) for the Company’s Shares calculated over the five trading days on which trades in the Company’s Shares occurred immediately before the date of this Notice of Annual General Meeting. This issue of Shares will satisfy 50% of the Directors’ fees owed to Dr Wang and Dr Trench for the period 1 January 2015 to 31 December 2015. The remaining 50% has already been paid/will be paid to the Directors in cash. The number of Shares proposed to be issued to each Director is equal to the amount of Directors’ fees outstanding divided by the deemed issue price of $0.032 per Share.

Name Director Fees
Outstanding
Deemed Issue Price per
Share1
Maximum Number of
Shares to be Issued
Jingbin Wang $28,000.00 $0.032 875,000
Allan Trench $20,000.00 $0.032 625,000

1 The deemed issue price is equal to the five day VWAP for the Company’s Shares calculated over the five trading days on which trades in the Company’s Shares occurred immediately before the date of this Notice of Annual General Meeting.

7.3 Reason approval required

Shareholder approval is required under Listing Rule 10.11 because the current Directors Dr Wang and Dr Trench are Related Parties of the Company.

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that a company must not issue equity securities to a Related Party without the approval of shareholders. Pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2 exception 14, where approval under Listing Rule 10.11 is obtained, approval is not required under Listing Rule 7.1 and the issue of securities will not be included in the Company’s 15% limit.

7.4 Specific information required by Listing Rule 10.13

In accordance with Listing Rule 10.13 the following information is provided in relation to Resolutions 5 and 6:

Maximum Number of Shares to be Issued : A maximum of 1,500,000 Shares are proposed to be issued, comprising the following:

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

  • 9 -

==> picture [231 x 57] intentionally omitted <==

(a) 875,000 Shares to be issued to Dr Wang (or nominee) pursuant to Resolution 5; and

(b) 625,000 Shares to be issued to Dr Trench (or nominee) pursuant to Resolution 6. Issue Price : The Shares will be issued for a deemed issue price of $0.032 per Share being the five day VWAP for the Company’s Shares calculated over the five trading days on which trades in the Company’s Shares occurred immediately before the date of this Notice of General Meeting. Relationship with the Company : The Shares to be issued pursuant to Resolutions 5 and 6 are to be issued to Dr Wang and Dr Trench (or their respective nominees), each of whom are Directors of the Company. Terms: The Shares to be issued will rank equally in all respects with the existing Shares on issue. The Company will apply to ASX for official quotation of the Shares.

Intended Use of Funds : The Shares are being issued at a deemed issue price of $0.032 per Share in lieu of 50% of Dr Wang’s and Dr Trench’s Directors’ fees for the period 1 January 2015 to 31 December 2015 amounting to $28,000.00 for Dr Wang and $20,000.00 for Dr Trench and consequently no funds will be raised by the issue. The issue of Shares provides a means by which the Company can satisfy 50% of Dr Wang’s and Dr Trench’s Directors’ fees for the period 1 January 2015 to 31 December 2015 whilst preserving the Company’s cash resources for application in other areas.

Date of Issue : The issue of Shares under Resolutions 5 and 6 will occur no later than 1 month after approval of the Resolution or such later date to the extent permitted by an ASX waiver of the Listing Rules. Voting Exclusion : An appropriate voting exclusion statement for Resolutions 5 and 6 is included in the Notice of Annual General Meeting.

Other than the information above and otherwise in this Explanatory Statement, the Company believes that there is no other information that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to consider Resolutions 5 and 6.

Given Dr Wang and Dr Trench, Directors of the Company, have an interest in Resolutions 5 and 6, they believe it inappropriate to make a recommendation on the Resolutions. Managing Director, Dermot Ryan, recommends shareholders vote in favour of Resolutions 5 and 6.

8. RESOLUTION 7: APPROVAL OF 10% PLACEMENT CAPACITY

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A enables eligible entities to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of their issued capital though placements over a 12 month period after the annual general meeting (“10% Placement Facility”). The 10% Placement Facility is in addition to the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

An eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. Based on the number of Shares on issue as at 19 October 2015 and the closing price of the Company’s Shares on the ASX on 16 October 2015 of $0.032 per Share, the Company’s market capitalisation is approximately $9.4 million. The Company is an eligible entity.

The Company is now seeking Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to have the ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility.

The exact number of Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Facility will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A2 (set out below).

The Company intends to use the funds raised under the 10% Placement Facility towards for continued exploration at the Company’s multi-commodity tenement portfolio and/or for general working capital. In addition, the Company may use the cash consideration for the acquisition of new assets and investments.

The Directors recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.

8.1 Description of Listing Rule 7.1A

(a) Shareholder approval

The ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility is subject to Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution at an annual general meeting.

(b) Equity Security

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

  • 10 -

==> picture [231 x 57] intentionally omitted <==

Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility 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 Annual General Meeting, the Company has one class of Equity Security, being Shares.

(c) Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility

Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that eligible entities which 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 following formula:

(A x D) – E

A is the number of fully paid ordinary shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

  • (a) plus the number of fully paid ordinary shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;

  • (b) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the 12 months;

  • (c) plus the number of fully paid ordinary shares issued in the 12 months with approval of holders of shares under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid ordinary shares under the entity’s 15% placement capacity without shareholder approval;

  • (d) less the number of fully paid shares cancelled in the 12 months.

  • Note that A has the same meaning in Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating an entity’s 15% placement capacity.

D is 10%.

E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of the issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.

(d)

Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A

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.

The actual number of Equity Securities that the Company will have capacity to issue under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated at the date of issue of the Equity Securities in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (set out above).

(e)

Minimum Issue Price

The issue price of Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A must be not less than 75% of the VWAP of Equity Securities in the same class calculated over the 15 Trading Days on which trades were recorded in that class immediately before:

  • (i) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or

  • (ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

(f)

10% Placement Period

Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under Listing Rule 7.1A is valid from the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained and expires on the earlier to occur of:

  • (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained; or

  • (ii) the date of the approval by shareholders of a transaction under Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking) (“10% Placement Period”).

8.2

Listing Rule 7.1A

The effect of this Resolution will be to allow the Directors to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the 10% Placement Period.

Resolution 7 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative).

8.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, information is provided in relation to the approval of the 10% Placement Facility as follows:

  • (a) The Equity Securities will be issued at an issue price of not less than 75% of the VWAP of the Company’s Equity Securities in the same class calculated over the 15 Trading Days on which trades were recorded in that class immediately before:

  • (i) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or

  • (ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

  • (b) If Resolution 7 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility, the existing Shareholders’ voting power in the Company will be diluted as shown in the below table. There is a risk that:

  • (i) the market price for the Company’s Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than on the date of the Annual General Meeting; and

  • (ii) the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for the Company’s Equity Securities on the issue date or the Equity Securities are issued as part of the consideration for the acquisition of a new asset;

which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the Equity Securities.

The below table shows the dilution of existing Shareholders on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the number of ordinary securities for variable ‘A’ calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A(2) as at the date of this Notice. The formula in Listing Rule 7.1A(2) is outlined above. The table below assumes that Resolutions 3 and 4 are passed at the Annual General Meeting and the Company has its full placement capacity available.

The table also shows:

  • (i) Two examples where variable ‘A’ has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable ‘A’ is based on the number of Shares the Company has on issue. The number of Shares on issue may increase as a result of issues of ordinary securities that do not require Shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or future specific placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders’ meeting; and

  • (ii) Two examples of where the issue price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 50% as against the current market price.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

  • 12 -

==> picture [231 x 57] intentionally omitted <==

The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

  • (i) The Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility.

  • (ii) No Options are exercised into Shares before the date of the issue of Equity Securities.

  • (iii) The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.

  • (iv) The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Facility, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Annual General Meeting.

  • (v) The table shows only the effect of issue of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • (vi) The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares.

  • (vii) The issue price is $0.032, being the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 16 October 2015.

  • (c) The Company will only issue the Equity Securities during the 10% Placement Period. The approval under Resolution 7 for the issue of the Equity 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) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking).

  • (d) The Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for the following purposes:

  • (i) Non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new assets and investments. In such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by Listing Rule 7.1A.3; or

  • (ii) Cash consideration to use the funds raised under the 10% Placement Facility towards continued exploration at the Company’s multi-commodity tenement portfolio and/or for general working capital. In addition, the Company may use the cash consideration for the acquisition of new assets and investments.

The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A(4) and 3.10.5A upon issue of any Equity Securities.

  • (e) The Company’s allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Facility. The identity of the allottees of Equity Securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factors including but not limited to the following:

  • (i) the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company, including but not limited to, rights issues or other issues in which existing security holders can participate;

  • (ii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;

  • (iii) the financial situation and solvency of the Company; and

  • (iv) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisors (if applicable).

The allottees under the 10% Placement Facility have not been determined as at the date of this Notice of Annual General Meeting but may include existing substantial Shareholders and/or new Shareholders who are not Related Parties or Associates of a Related Party of the Company.

  • (f) The Company has not previously obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at its 2014 annual general meeting.

  • (g) A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice of Annual General Meeting. At the date of the Notice of Annual General Meeting, the Company has not approached any particular existing Shareholder or security holder or an identifiable class or existing security holder to participate in an issue of Equity Securities pursuant to the Resolution. No existing Shareholder’s votes will therefore be excluded under the voting exclusion in this Notice.
