EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

These explanatory notes set out information in connection with the business to be considered at the Estrella Resources Limited General Meeting to be held on 10[th] September 2015 at 11 am (AEST) in the Boardroom of Hall Chadwick, Level 40, 2 Park Street Sydney NSW 2000.

1.0 - RESOLUTION 1 - RATIFICATION OF SHARE PLACEMENT – CAPITAL RAISING

1.1 Background

On 1 April 2015, the Company announced a placement of shares to Black Swan Global Pty Ltd (Black Swan), being an Excluded Offeree (as defined in section 708 of the Corporations Act) to raise $125,300 through the issue of 17,900,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.007 per Share.

Black Swan was not a related party of the Company.

The prior approval of Shareholders was not required in respect of the placement of Shares as it did not exceed the 15% restriction imposed upon listed companies by Listing Rule 7.1 and/or the 10% restriction imposed upon listed companies by Listing Rule 7.1A.

Listing Rule 7.4 provides that if a placement of Shares is ratified by Shareholders, the Company will again have the flexibility to issue further securities without Shareholder approval within the 15% restriction imposed upon listed companies by Listing Rule 7.1 and/or the 10% restriction imposed upon listed companies by Listing Rule 7.1A, as the case requires.

The Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Company to maintain the ability to issue up to its full placement capacity so that the Company retains financial flexibility and can take advantage of opportunities that may arise.

1.2 Information for Shareholders in accordance with Listing Rule 7.4

The following information is provided in relation to Resolution 1 in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5:

  • (a) Number of securities allotted: The Placement consisted of the issue and allotment of 17,900,000 Shares.

  • (b) Issue price: Each Share was issued at a price of A$0.007.

  • (c) Term of the securities: The Shares issued to Black Swan rank equally with the existing Shares on issue coded ESR.

  • (d) Allottees: The Shares were issued to Black Swan Global Pty Ltd, which is not a related party of the Company.

6

  • (e) Use of funds: The Company intends to and has used the funds raised primarily for the exploration of various prospects within Project Altair and also for general working capital purposes including assessment of new investment opportunities.

1.3 Recommendation

The Board unanimously recommends that the Shareholders approve Resolution 1.

2.0 - RESOLUTION 2 - ISSUE OF OPTIONS TO FORMER DIRECTOR – JASON BERTON

2.1 Background

Resolution 2 is to consider the issue of options to Mr Jason Berton, a former Estrella Director, which was agreed to by the Board, subject to shareholder approval, to adequately incentivise the Director in light of his skill and experience when considered together with his remuneration.

The options are considered reasonable remuneration and no regulatory approval will be sought under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

As provided in Exception 14 to Listing Rule 7.2, if shareholder approval is given under Listing Rule 10.11 approval is not required under Listing Rule 7.1.

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.13 the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 2:

Name Number of Options Exercise Price Per
Option
Expiry
Date
of
Options
Dr Jason Berton 5,000,000 $0.011 31 May 2018

No funds will be raised from the issue of the options, however upon exercise of the options the funds raised will be used for general working capital purposes including assessment of new investment opportunities. If the options are fully exercised, $55,000 in capital will be raised.

If approved, the shares will be issued to Dr Berton within one (1) month of the date of this meeting. No funds will be received from the issue of these shares.

2.2 Valuation

The Directors have undertaken a valuation using an employee option valuation model based on Black and Scholes. It is a requirement of ASIC that a dollar value be placed on the Options to be issued.

In determining this value, the following assumptions have been made:

  • (a) the Share price at the issue date is assumed to be $0.006 per Share, which is based on the six month volume weighted average prices of trading in the Shares up to and including 24 July 2015;

  • (b) 5,000,000 Options are to be exercisable at $0.011;

7

  • (c) 5,000,000 Options are expected expire on 31/5/18.

  • (d) the estimate of volatility, based on price volatility of the Shares to the expiry of the options is approximately 100% based on share volatility over the last 6 months; and

  • (e) the average current risk-free interest rate is 2.3% (Government Bond Rate for next 3 years).

On this basis, the options are valued at approximately $0.0029 per Option. Therefore, the implied "value" of the Options being granted to the director is as follows:

Related Party Number of Options Value
Jason Berton 5,000,000 $14,859

Other information that is reasonably required by members to make a decision whether it is in the best interest of the Company to pass Resolution 2 and that is known to the Company or any of its Directors is as follows:

  • (i) Resolution 2 would have the effect of giving power to the Directors to grant a total of 5,000,000 Options. On 31 July 2015, the Company had on issue 220,999,713 Shares and 17,151,427 Options exercisable over various periods and at various exercise prices.

  • (ii) If all of the 5,000,000 Options granted as proposed above are exercised, the effect would be to dilute the shareholding of existing shareholders by approximately 2.2%.

  • (iii) The market price of the Shares during the period of the Options will normally determine whether or not Option holders exercise the Options. At the time any Options are exercised and Shares are issued pursuant to the exercise of the Options, the Shares may be trading at a price which is higher than the exercise price of the Options.

  • (iv) In respect of remuneration and consulting fees payable to the Director:

Mr Berton or his nominee was entitled to be paid $225,000 per annum, inclusive of superannuation up to the date of his resignation as managing director on 31 July 2015.

As at the date of this notice, the former Director has the following interest in the securities of the Company.

8.3 Effect of the Share Consolidation

(a) Ordinary shares

If the resolution is approved, every four shares on issue will be consolidated into 1 share (subject to rounding). Overall, this will result in the numbers of shares on issue reducing from 220,999,713 (as at 31 July 2015) to 55,249,929.

As the Share Consolidation applies equally to all shareholders, individual shareholdings will be reduced in the same ratio as the total number of Company shares (subject to rounding). Accordingly, assuming no other market movements or impacts occur, the Share Consolidation will have no effect on the percentage interest of each shareholder, the aggregate value of each shareholder’s holding or the Company’s market capitalisation (other than minor changes as a result of rounding).

For example, a holding of 100,000 shares at a share price of A$0.005 (aggregate value of A$500) prior to the Share Consolidation should equate to a holding of 25,000 shares and a share price of A$0.02 after the Share Consolidation (aggregate value of A$500).

(c) Options

As at 31 July 2015, the Company had 17,151,427 unlisted options on issue with various exercise prices and expiry dates. In accordance with the terms and conditions of the options and ASX Listing Rule 7.22, these options will be consolidated on the same basis as the Company’s shares with the effect that the number of shares the subject of each option agreement will be reduced by a factor of 4 and the exercise price will be increased by a factor of 4. After the Share Consolidation, there will be 4,287,857 unlisted options.

16

For example, a holding of 100,000 options with an exercise price of A$0.10 pre consolidation would result in a holding of 25,000 options with an exercise price of A$0.40 after the Share Consolidation.

8.4 Rounding

Where the consolidation of a shareholder’s holding results in an entitlement to a fraction of a share, the fraction will be rounded up to the next whole number of shares. Fractions of share rights and options will also be rounded up to the next whole number.

8.5 Holding Statements

From the effective date of the Share Consolidation, all existing holding statements will cease to have any effect, except as evidence of entitlement to a certain number of securities on a postconsolidation basis. New holding statements will be issued to security holders who should check their holdings after the Share Consolidation.

8.6 Tax implications of Share Consolidation

The Share Consolidation should not result in a capital gains tax (CGT) event for Australian tax residents. The cost base of the shares held after the Share Consolidation will be the sum of the cost bases of the original shares pre-consolidation. The acquisition date of shares held after the Share Consolidation will be the same as the date on which the original shares were acquired.

These statements do not consider the tax implications in respect of shares or securities held on revenue account, as trading stock, by non-resident shareholders or under the Share Rights Plan or Executives’ Options Plan. Shareholders should consider their own circumstances and seek their own professional advice in relation to their tax position. Neither the Company nor any of its officers or employees assumes any liability or responsibility for advising shareholders or securities holders about the tax consequences of the proposed Share Consolidation.

17

8.7 Indicative timetable

The proposed Share Consolidation, if approved by shareholders, will take effect on 10 September 2015. An indicative timetable (subject to change) is as follows:

Event Indicative Date
Following shareholder approval Company announces shareholder
approval of Consolidation
10 September 2015
Last day for trading in pre-consolidated securities. 15 September 2015

Last day to register transfers on a pre-consolidation basis. 18 September 2015
Registration of securities on a post consolidation basis. 21 September 2015
