Dear Shareholder

Non-Renounceable Rights Issue – Appendix 3B Notice

Freehill Mining Limited (“Freehill” or the “Company”; ASX: FHS) announced on 22 October 2018 a capital raising by way of a non-renounceable pro-rata rights issue (“Rights Issue” or “Entitlement Offer”). In accordance with the Listing Rules of the Australian Securities Exchange, the Company is pleased to provide you with the following information about the Entitlement Offer.

Each eligible shareholder registered on the Company’s register at 7:00PM (Melbourne time) on 25 October 2018 (“Record Date”) will be entitled to subscribe for one (1) new share for every two (2) ordinary shares held at the Record Date at an issue price of $0.015 (1.5 cents) per new share. Under the Entitlement Offer, a maximum of 205,000,000 shares will be issued to raise up to approximately $3,075,000 (before costs and expenses).[1 ]

In addition to being able to apply for new shares under the Rights Issue, eligible shareholders will also have the ability to apply for additional new shares that are not subscribed for under the Rights Issue.

If you are an eligible shareholder you should read the Offer Booklet in its entirety before deciding whether to apply for new shares. If you do not understand any part of the Offer Booklet, or are in any doubt as to how to deal with it or your entitlement, you should consult your financial or other professional adviser.

The Offer Booklet is available to download from both the ASX website (www.asx.com.au) and the Company’s website (www.freehillmining.com), and will be mailed to eligible shareholders on or around 30 October 2018.

Please note that the Company’s shares will be quoted on an “ex” entitlement basis from 24 October 2018, and therefore any of the Company’s shares acquired on market on and after this date will not be entitled to participate in the Rights Issue. The Entitlement Offer opens on 30 October 2018 and is currently scheduled to close at 5:00PM (Melbourne time) on 8 November 2018.

The Entitlement Offer is not underwritten.

The net proceeds of the funds raised under the Rights Issue will be used to strengthen the Company’s financial position and fund the initial drilling with a view to establishing a JORC Resource.

1 The figures for the number of new shares and the amount to be raised are maximum figures only. They assume that all shareholders on the Record Date are Eligible Shareholders.
