EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
This Extraordinary General Meeting ( Meeting ) Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of Shareholders in connection with the business to be conducted at the Meeting.
The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the General Meeting Resolutions.
1. RESOLUTIONS 1 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUES (LR 7.1) | MAY PLACEMENT
1.1 Background
On 14 May 2024, Pan Asia Metals announced that it had successfully completed a $1.2 million capital raise raising ( May Placement ) supported by the Company’s Chairman and Managing Director, Mr. Paul Lock (for $100,000) together with Executive Director, Mr. David Hobby (for $65,000).
Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder approval to ratify the Shares issued as part of the May Placement. Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder approval to issue shares to the Chairman and Managing Director who also participated in the May Placement, and Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval to issue shares to Executive Director who also participated in the raise
1.2
ASX Listing Rule 7.1
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 amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12-month period.
1.3
ASX Listing Rule 7.4
Listing Rule 7.4 allows the Shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A (as appropriate) and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under that rule.
By ratifying the issue of Shares, the subject of Resolutions 1, 2 and 3, the base figure (ie. Variable “A”) in which the Company’s 15% and 10% annual placement capacities are calculated will be a higher number which in turn will allow a proportionately higher number of securities to be issued without prior Shareholder approval.
1.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If Resolution 1 is passed, the Shares, the subject of Resolution1, will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% under ASX Listing Rules 7.1, increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of issue of the Placement Shares.
If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1, decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of issue of the Placement Shares.
1.5
Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.5
Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 1:
Pan Asia Metals Limited | Notice of Annual General Meeting
Page 10 of 20
-
(a) 8,621,159 Shares were issued to clients of Novus Capital Limited.
-
(b) The Shares issued were all fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares;
-
(c) The Shares were issued on 7 June 2024;
-
(d) the issue price of the Shares was $0.13 per Share;
-
(e) Funds raised from the issue of Shares are going towards geophysics and initial reconnaissance drilling in Chile, feasibility and resource definition in Thailand, licensing and legal requirements, strategic Investor engagement and for working capital.
2. RESOLUTION 2 – APPROVAL OF SHARES ISSUE TO MR. PAUL LOCK | MAY PLACEMENT
2.1 General
Mr. Paul Lock, Chairman and Managing Director, subscribed for $100,000 in the May Placement (see 1.1 above). Under the ASX Listing Rules, a company cannot issue securities to a related party without Shareholder approval. This Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.11 for the Chairman and Managing Director, Mr. Paul Lock, to participate in the May Placement on the same terms and conditions as other investors who participated in the May Placement.
2.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If Resolution 2 is passed, the Company will be able to issue 769,231 Shares to the Chairman and Managing Director, Mr. Paul Lock (or his nominee), on the same terms and conditions as other investors to the May Placement, further aligning his interests with those of Shareholders. It will also raise a total of $100,000 without utilising the Company’s placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolution 2 is not passed, the Company will not be able to issue Shares to the Chairman and the Company will be required to repay the subscription funds to the Chairman and Managing Director.
2.3
ASX Listing Rule 10.11
ASX Listing Rule 10.11 provides that, unless one of the exceptions in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed company must not issue or agree to issue equity securities to any of the following persons without the approval of holders of ordinary securities (Shareholders):
-
10.11.1 a related party;
-
10.11.2 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the company;
-
10.11.3 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (10%+) holder in the company and who has nominated a director to the board of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so;
-
10.11.4 an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3;
-
10.11.5 a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in ASX Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its Shareholder.
Pan Asia Metals Limited | Notice of an Extraordinary General Meeting
Page 11 of 20
The issue falls within ASX Listing Rule 10.11.1 and none of the exceptions in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 applies, and so therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under ASX Listing rule 10.11.
Resolution 2 seeks the required Shareholder approval for the issue under and for the purposes of Listing rule 10.11.
2.4
Technical Information required by ASX Listing Rule 10.13
Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 2:

-
(b) the maximum number of securities to be issued is 769,231 Shares;
-
(c) the Shares are expected to be issued as soon as possible following this Meeting but will be issued no later than one month after the date of the meeting and it is intended that issue of Shares will occur on the same date;
-
(d) the Shares will be issued at $0.13 per Share;
-
(e) the Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares;
-
(f) Funds raised from the issue of Shares are going towards geophysics and initial reconnaissance drilling in Chile, feasibility and resource definition in Thailand, licensing and legal requirements, strategic Investor engagement and for working capital.
Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Shares to Mr. Lock as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of Shares the subject of this Resolution will not be included in the use of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
3. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL OF SHARES ISSUE TO MR. DAVID HOBBY | MAY PLACEMENT
3.1 General

4. RESOLUTION 4 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE (LR 7.1) | ATM FACILITY
4.1 General
On 14 May 2024, the Company announced that it had secured a $10 million ‘At-the-Market’ ( ATM ) funding facility with Alpha Investment Partners. The ATM facility provides PAM with up to $10 million of standby equity capital over the next 5 years, enabling additional flexibility for the Company to conduct capital raising activities over time, closely aligning capital needs with operational activities.
PAM retains full control over all major aspects of the placement process, having sole discretion as to whether to use the ATM, the number of issued shares, and the minimum issue price of shares for any placement. The final issue price will be calculated as the greater of a floor price set by PAM and a Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) over a period of the Company’s choosing (at the sole discretion of the Company subject to a minimum 5 qualifying business days) less a discount of seven percent.
A key advantage of using the ATM Facility is control over the timing of capital issuances with estimated net proceeds received occurring with minimal dilution. Furthermore, there are no restrictions at any time on PAM raising capital through other methods.
As initial collateral for the ATM facility, PAM issued three (3) million collateral shares from its existing 15% LR7.1 capacity, at no consideration to Alpha Investment Partners. PAM may, at any time, buy back those shares for no consideration (subject to Shareholder approval if required).
Importantly, PAM may terminate the ATM at any time without incurring termination costs. Upon termination all outstanding collateral shares are returned to PAM for no consideration. The provision of any funding by AIP is entirely at AIP’s discretion and there is no guarantee any
