How to vote

Shareholders can vote by either:

  • attending the Meeting and voting in person or by attorney or, in the case of corporate Shareholders, by appointing a corporate representative to attend and vote; or

  • appointing a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf using the Proxy Form accompanying this Notice of Meeting and by submitting their proxy appointment and voting instructions in person, by post, electronically via the internet or by facsimile.

Voting in person (or by attorney)

Shareholders, or their attorneys, who plan to attend the Meeting are asked to arrive at the venue 15 minutes prior to the time designated for the Meeting, if possible, so that their holding may be checked against the Company's share register and their attendance recorded. To be effective a certified copy of the Power of Attorney, or the original Power of Attorney, must be received by the Company in the same manner, and by the same time as outlined for proxy forms below.

Voting by a Corporation

A Shareholder that is a corporation may appoint an individual to act as its representative and vote in person at the Meeting. The appointment must comply with the requirements of section 250D of the Corporations Act. The representative should bring to the Meeting evidence of his or her appointment, including any authority under which it is signed.

Voting by proxy

  • A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies. Each proxy will have the right to vote on a poll and also to speak at the Meeting.

  • The appointment of the proxy may specify the proportion or the number of votes that the proxy may exercise. Where two proxies are appointed and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the Shareholder's votes each proxy may exercise, each proxy may exercise half of the votes.

  • A proxy need not be a Shareholder.

  • The proxy can be either an individual or a body corporate.

  • If a proxy is not directed how to vote on an item of business, the proxy may generally vote, or abstain from voting, as they think fit. However, where a Restricted Voter is appointed as a proxy, the proxy may only vote on Resolution 7 in accordance with a direction on how the proxy is to vote or, if the proxy is the Chair of the Meeting and the appointment expressly authorises the Chair to exercise the proxy even if the Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the

  • remuneration of a member of the Key Management Personnel.

  • Should any resolution, other than those specified in this Notice of Meeting, be proposed at the Meeting, a proxy may vote on that resolution as they think fit.

  • If a proxy is instructed to abstain from voting on an item of business, they are directed not to vote on the Shareholder's behalf on the poll and the Shares that are the subject of the proxy appointment will not be counted in calculating the required majority.

  • Shareholders who return their Proxy Forms with a direction how to vote, but who do not nominate the identity of their proxy, will be taken to have appointed the Chair of the Meeting as their proxy to vote on their behalf. If a Proxy Form is returned but the nominated proxy does not attend the Meeting, the Chair of the Meeting will act in place of the nominated proxy and vote in accordance with any instructions. Proxy appointments in favour of the Chair of the Meeting, the secretary or any Director that do not contain a direction how to vote will be used, where possible, to support each of the Resolutions proposed in this Notice of Meeting, provided they are entitled to cast votes as a proxy under the voting exclusion rules which apply to some of the proposed Resolutions. However, in exceptional circumstances, the Chair of the Meeting may change his voting intention, in which case an ASX announcement will be made. These rules are explained in this Notice of Meeting.

  • To be effective, proxies must be received by 10:00 am (AWST time) on 6 April 2021. Proxies received after this time will be invalid.

  • Proxies may be lodged using any of the following methods:

Online At www.investorvote.com.au By mail Share Registry – Computershare Investor Services Pty Limited, GPO Box 242, Melbourne Victoria 3001, Australia By fax 1800 783 447 (within Australia) +61 3 9473 2555 (outside Australia) Custodian voting For Intermediary Online subscriber only (custodians) please visit www.intermediaryonline.com to submit your voting intention

If facsimile transmission is used, the Power of Attorney must be certified.

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

This Explanatory Memorandum is intended to provide Shareholders with sufficient information to assess the merits of the Resolutions contained in the accompanying Notice of Meeting of the Company.

Certain abbreviations and other defined terms are used throughout this Explanatory Memorandum. Defined terms are generally identifiable by the use of an upper case first letter. Details of the definitions and abbreviations are set out in the Glossary to the Explanatory Memorandum.

1 Resolution 1 – Proposed Issue of Consideration Shares to Peel Far West Pty Ltd

On 18 February 2021, the Company announced that it had entered into a binding purchase agreement with Peel Far West Pty Ltd ( PFW ) ( Agreement ) pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire exploration licences EL8721, EL8722, EL8790, EL8791 and EL8909 (together, the Licences ) from PFW ( Transaction ). Pursuant to the terms of the Transaction, the Company will issue 50,000,000 Shares to PFW (or its nominee) at a deemed issue price of $0.02 per Share ( Consideration Shares ), subject to the Company obtaining Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and the satisfaction of the other conditions described below.

The material terms of the Agreement are:

  • the consideration payable by the Company at completion of the Transaction ( Completion comprises:

    • the issue of the Consideration Shares to PFW (or its nominee); and
  • the grant to PFW (or its nominee) of a 1% net smelter return royalty, payable quarterly from the date on which saleable mineral or metallic product is first produced from the Licences;

  • Completion of the Transaction is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the following conditions (together the Conditions ):

  • PFW obtaining approval under section 121 of the Mining Act 1992 (NSW) ( Mining Act ) to the transfer of each of the Licences to the Company on terms acceptable to the Company (acting reasonably);

  • the Company’s Shareholders approving the issue of the Consideration Shares to PFW (or its nominee) by ordinary resolution for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and any other ASX Listing Rule approvals required for Completion; and

  • the Company giving PFW notice no later than one month from the date of the Agreement that it is satisfied with the results of its further due diligence on the Licences, in its absolute discretion;

  • if Shareholder approval is not obtained for the issue of the Consideration Shares, then the parties will do everything reasonably possible to unwind any application under section 121 of the Mining Act required for the transfer of the Licences, In these circumstances if the application cannot be unwound and the Company becomes the registered holder of the Licences, the Company will hold the Licences on trust for PFW and will transfer the Licences back to PFW; and

  • for so long as PFW (or its nominee) holds voting power in the Company of at least 10%, PFW will be required to provide at least 48 hours prior notice to the Board of any proposed dealing in

9

respect of any of the Consideration Shares and any disposal of any Consideration Shares by PFW (or its nominee) must be pursuant to an orderly sell-down.

The Agreement is subject to standard warranties and limitations on warranty claims for transactions of this nature.

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without the approval of its Shareholders over any 12-month period to 15% of the Shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

The proposed issue of Consideration Shares pursuant to the Transaction does not fall within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and exceeds the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1. It therefore requires the approval of the Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 1 seeks the required Shareholder approval for the proposed issue of Consideration Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 1 is passed:

  • subject to the other Conditions being satisfied, the Company will be able to proceed with the Transaction and the Company will issue the Consideration Shares to PFW (or its nominee);

  • the Company will acquire the Licences; and

  • the total number of Shares on issue will increase from 325,344,335 to 375,344,335[1] and the existing Shareholders holdings will be diluted by 13.32%[2] on an undiluted basis and 9.01% on a fully diluted basis.[3]

In addition, the Consideration Shares issued pursuant to the Transaction will be excluded from the calculation of the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the Transaction.

The following information in relation to the Consideration Shares to be issued is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3:

  • the Consideration Shares will be issued to PFW (or its nominee);

  • the Company will issue 50,000,000 Consideration Shares;

  • the Consideration Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company and rank equally in all respects with the existing fully paid ordinary shares on issue;

  • the Consideration Shares will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting;

  • the Consideration Shares are being issued as part consideration for the acquisition of the Licences;

  • the material terms of the Agreement under which the Consideration Shares are issued, are set out above in this section of the Notice of Meeting; and

  • a voting exclusion applies in respect of this Resolution as set out in the Notice of Meeting.

1 Assumes no other Shares are issued.

2 Assumes no other Shares are issued.

3 Assumes all Equity Securities the subject of all Resolutions are on issue, all Options are exercised and no other Shares are issued.

2 Background – Resolutions 2 to 6 (inclusive)

As announced on 18 and 23 February 2021, the Company is undertaking a placement of up to 112,500,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.02 per Share ( Placement ) in two tranches:

  • (i) the first tranche of the Placement ( Tranche 1 ) comprised a total of 49,000,000 Shares which were issued on 24 February 2021, using the Company’s capacity under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A as follows:

  • (A) 28,957,900 Shares were issued utilising the Company’s Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity; and

  • (B) 20,042,100 Shares were issued utilising the Company’s Listing Rule 7.1A placement capacity; and

  • (ii) the second tranche of the Placement ( Tranche 2 ) comprises a total of up to 63,500,000 Shares to be issued subject to the Company obtaining Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

The Company’s Director Mr Jason Bontempo, and proposed Director Mr Ted Coupland, also intend to subscribe for Shares on the same terms as the Shares issued under the Placement. Mr Bontempo has confirmed that, subject to the Company obtaining Shareholder approval, he or his nominees will subscribe for up to 10,000,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.02 ( Bontempo Placement Shares ). Mr Coupland has confirmed that, subject to the Company obtaining Shareholder approval, he or his nominees will subscribe for up to 2,500,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.02 ( Coupland Placement Shares ).

The Company intends to use the funds raised under the Placement for additional working capital .

3 Resolution 2 – Ratification of Issue of Shares – Tranche 1 Placement (Listing Rule 7.1)

As noted above, on 24 February 2021, the Company issued 28,957,900 Shares at an issue price of A$0.02 per Share under Tranche 1 of the Placement utilising the Company’s Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity to raise A$579,158 (before costs) ( LR 7.1 Shares ).

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of Equity Securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that period.

The issue of the Listing Rule 7.1 Shares under Tranche 1 of the Placement does not fit within any of these exceptions and, as it has not yet been approved by the Company’s Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date the Company issued the LR 7.1 Shares.

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a 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 Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1 and therefore seeks Shareholder approval to ratify the issue of the LR 7.1 Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4.

If this Resolution is passed, the LR 7.1 Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date the Company issued the LR

11

7.1 Shares. In addition, the LR 7.1 Shares will not be included in calculating the Company’s 10% capacity in Listing Rule 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under that rule.

If this Resolution is not passed, the LR 7.1 Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date the Company issued the LR 7.1 Shares. In addition, the LR 7.1 Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s additional 10% capacity in Listing Rule 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under that rule.

The following information in relation to the LR 7.1 Shares the subject of the Placement is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.5:

  • (a) the LR 7.1 Shares were issued to sophisticated and institutional investors and other investors qualifying under s 708 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), all of who are unrelated parties of the Company via a bookbuild process;

  • (b) 28,957,900 LR 7.1 Shares were issued;

  • (c) the LR 7.1 Shares issued were fully paid ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company and rank equally in all respects with the existing fully paid ordinary Shares on issue;

  • (d) the LR 7.1 Shares were issued on 24 February 2021;

  • (e) the LR 7.1 Shares were issued at an issue price of $0.02 each;

  • (f) the LR 7.1 Shares were issued for the purposes set out in the background to resolutions 2 to 6 (inclusive) above;

  • (g) a summary of the material terms of the Placement pursuant to which the LR 7.1 Shares were issued is set out in the background to Resolutions 2 to 6 (inclusive) above; and

  • (h) a voting exclusion applies in respect of this Resolution as set out in the Notice of Meeting.

4 Resolution 3 – Ratification of issue of Shares – Tranche 1 Placement (Listing Rule 7.1A)

As noted above, on 24 February 2021 the Company issued 20,042,100 Shares at an issue price of A$0.02 per Share under Tranche 1 of the Placement utilising the Company’s Listing Rule 7.1A placement capacity to raise $400,842 (before costs) ( LR 7.1A Shares ).

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that period. Under Listing Rule 7.1A, an eligible entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25%. Shareholders approved this additional capacity at the Company’s last annual general meeting.

The issue of the LR 7.1A Shares under the Placement does not fit within any of these exceptions and, as it has not yet been approved by the Company’s Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 10% limit in Listing Rule 7.1A, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A for the period ending on the earliest of:

  • the date that is 12 months after the last annual general meeting at which the Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate was approved;

  • the time and date of the next annual general meeting; and

12

  • the time and date on which Shareholders approve a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (for a significant change to the nature or scale of the Company’s activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of the Company’s main undertaking),

(Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate Expiry Date)

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a 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 Listing Rule 7.1A and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1A and therefore seeks Shareholder approval to ratify the issue of the LR 7.1A Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4.

If this Resolution is passed, the LR 7.1A Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval:

  • under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date the Company issued the LR 7.1A Shares; and

  • under Listing Rule 7.1A for the period ending on the Listing Rule 7.1A Mandate Expiry Date.

If this Resolution is not passed, the LR 7.1A Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A for the periods noted immediately above.

The following information in relation to the LR 7.1A Shares issued under the Placement is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.5:

  • (a) the LR 7.1A Shares were issued to sophisticated and institutional investors and other investors qualifying under s 708 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) investors, all of who are unrelated parties of the Company via a bookbuild process;

  • (b) 20,042,100 LR 7.1A Shares were issued;

  • (c) the LR 7.1A Shares issued were fully paid ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company and rank equally in all respects with the existing fully paid ordinary Shares on issue;

  • (d) the LR 7.1A Shares were issued on 24 February 2021;

  • (e) the LR 7.1A Shares were issued at an issue price of A$0.02 each;

  • (f) the LR 7.1A Shares were issued for the purposes set out in the background to resolutions 2 to 6 (inclusive) above;

  • (g) a summary of the material terms of the pursuant to which the LR 7.1A Shares were issued is set out in the background to resolutions 2 to 6 (inclusive) above; and

  • (h) a voting exclusion applies in respect of this Resolution as set out in the Notice of Meeting.

5 Resolution 4 – Proposed Issue of Shares – Tranche 2 Placement

As noted above, the Company is proposing, subject to Shareholder approval, to issue up to 63,500,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.02 per Share to raise up to $1,270,000 (before costs) ( Tranche 2 Shares ). The Company has received confirmations from sophisticated and institutional investors and other investors qualifying under s 708 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) who will participate in Tranche 2 of the Placement and are unrelated parties of the Company.

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without the approval of its Shareholders over any 12-month period to 15% of the Shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

The proposed issue of Tranche 2 Shares pursuant to Tranche 2 of the Placement does not fall within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and exceeds the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1. It therefore requires the approval of the Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 4 seeks the required Shareholder approval for the proposed issue of the Tranche 2 Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 4 is passed:

  • the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Tranche 2 Shares and the Company will issue up to 63,500,000 Shares to sophisticated and institutional investors and other investors qualifying under s 708 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth);

  • the Company’s cash reserves will increase by $1,270,000 (before expenses); and

  • the total number of Shares on issue will increase from 325,344,335 to 388,844,335[4] and the existing Shareholders holdings will be diluted by 16.33%[5] on an undiluted basis and 11.44% on a fully diluted basis.[6]

In addition, the Tranche 2 Shares issued pursuant to Tranche 2 of the Placement will be excluded from the calculation of the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 4 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of Tranche 2 Shares and there is no assurance that the Company will be able to access and secure additional funding on reasonable terms or at all.

The following information in relation to the Shares to be issued is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3:

  • the Tranche 2 Shares will be issued to sophisticated and institutional investors and other investors qualifying under s 708 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) via a bookbuild process;

  • the Company will issue up to 63,500,000 Tranche 2 Shares;

  • the Tranche 2 Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company and rank equally in all respects with the existing fully paid ordinary shares on issue;

  • the Tranche 2 Shares will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting;

4 Assumes no other Shares are issued.

5 Assumes no other Shares are issued.

6 Assumes all Equity Securities the subject of all Resolutions are on issue, all Options are exercised and no other Shares are issued.

14

  • the Company will receive $0.02 for each Tranche 2 Share issued;

  • the Tranche 2 Shares will be issued for the purposes set out in the background to resolutions 2 to 6 (inclusive) above;

  • a summary of the material terms of the Placement pursuant to which the Tranche 2 Shares are proposed to be issued is set out above in the background to Resolutions 2 to 6 (inclusive) above; and

  • a voting exclusion applies in respect of this Resolution as set out in the Notice of Meeting.

6 Resolutions 5 and 6 – Issue of Shares to Mr Jason Bontempo (Director) and Mr Ted Coupland (proposed Director) or their nominees

The Company is conducting the Placement as set out in the background for Resolutions 2 to 6 (inclusive) above.

Mr Bontempo is a Director of the Company and, as announced on 18 February 2021, the Company intends to appoint Mr Ted Coupland as a non-executive Director subject to Shareholders approving the Transaction the subject of Resolution 1.

As noted above, Mr Bontempo and Mr Coupland intend to subscribe for Shares on the same terms as those issued under the Placement.

Related Party Transactions Generally

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits a public company from giving a financial benefit to a related party of the public company unless either:

  • (a) the giving of the financial benefits falls within one of the nominated exceptions to the provision; or

  • (b) Shareholder approval is obtained prior to the giving of the financial benefit and the benefit is given within 15 months after obtaining such approval.

For the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, Messrs Bontempo and Coupland are related parties of the Company. Resolutions 5 and 6 relates to a proposed issued of Shares to Messrs Bontempo and Coupland, which is a financial benefit that requires Shareholder approval for the purposes of section 208 of the Corporations Act.

Under section 208 of the Corporations Act, 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; 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.

Shareholder approval is not being sought for the purposes of section 208 of the Corporations Act on the basis that the benefit is considered by the Board (in the absence of Mr Bontempo) to be on arms’ length terms as Messrs Bontempo and Coupland (or their nominees) are subscribing for Shares on the same terms as those issued under the Placement.

Directors’ recommendation

All the Directors were available to make a recommendation.

Mr Bontempo declines to make a recommendation about Resolution 5 as he has a material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution.

The Directors (in absence of Mr Bontempo) recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5. The Directors (in absence of Mr Bontempo) are not aware of any other information that would reasonably be required by the Shareholders to allow them to make a decision whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass this Resolution.

The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 6. The Directors are not aware of any other information that would reasonably be required by the Shareholders to allow them to make a decision whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass this Resolution.

Information Requirements - Listing Rules 10.11 and 10.13

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, the Company must not issue or agree to issue equity securities to:

  • a related party (Listing Rule 10.11.1);

  • 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 (Listing Rule 10.11.2);

  • 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 pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so (Listing Rule 10.11.3);

  • an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3 (Listing Rule 10.11.4); or

  • a person whose relationship with the Company or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by Shareholders (Listing Rule 10.11.5),

unless it obtains the approval of its Shareholders.

The proposed issue of Shares under Resolutions 5 and 6 will be to parties who fall within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.

Resolution 5 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11 and for all other purposes to allow Mr Bontempo (or his nominees), to subscribe for up to 10,000,000 Shares on the same terms as the Shares issued under the Placement. Mr Bontempo’s participation will be on exactly the same terms as the Tranche 2 Placement made to unrelated parties.

If Resolution 5 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Bontempo Placement Shares to raise $200,000 (before costs).

Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11 and for all other purposes to allow Mr Coupland (or his nominees), to subscribe for up to 2,500,000 Shares on the same terms as the Shares issued under the Placement. Mr Coupland’s participation will be on exactly the same terms as the Tranche 2 Placement made to unrelated parties.

16

If Resolution 6 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Coupland Placement Shares to raise $50,000 (before costs).

The maximum impact of passing Resolutions 5 and 6 on Messrs Bontempo and Coupland’s voting power in the Company, assuming:

  • Mr Bontempo (or his nominees) is issued all of the Bontempo Placement Shares and Mr Coupland (or his nominees) is issued all of the Coupland Placement Shares;

  • the 50,000,000 Consideration Shares referred to in Resolution 1 are issued;

  • the 63,500,000 Tranche 2 Shares referred to in Resolution 4 are issued; and

  • the 4,000,000 Incentive Options referred to in Resolution 7 are issued to Mr Coupland (or his nominees),

If Resolution 5 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Bontempo Placement Shares and the Company will not receive $200,000 in application funds. If Resolution 6 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Coupland Placement Shares and the Company will not receive $50,000 in application funds.

18

Related Party Transactions Generally

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits a public company from giving a financial benefit to a related party of the public company unless either:

  • (a) the giving of the financial benefits falls within one of the nominated exceptions to the provision; or

  • (b) Shareholder approval is obtained prior to the giving of the financial benefit and the benefit is given within 15 months after obtaining such approval.

For the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, the Participating Director is a related party of the Company given he is a director of the Company.

Under section 208 of the Corporations Act, 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; 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.

Shareholder approval is not being sought for the purposes of section 208 of the Corporations Act on the basis that the benefits are considered by the Board to constitute reasonable remuneration and, therefore, the exception in section 211 of the Corporations Act applies to this Resolution. Section 211 provides that Shareholder approval is not required for the purposes of section 208 in circumstances where the benefit constitutes remuneration which would be reasonable given the Company’s and the related party’s circumstances.

Having considered the Company’s circumstances and the Participating Director’s position with the Company, the Board considers that the financial benefits conferred by the issue of Incentive Options to the Participating Director are reasonable given:

  • the vesting conditions are linked to an increase in Share price, thereby incentivising the Participating Director to deliver growth and projects to Shareholders; and

  • the Company has other preferred uses for its available cash and the issue of the Incentive Options is an appropriate alternative for providing incentives to the Participating Director,

and therefore the exception in section 211 apply (as appropriate).

Directors’ recommendation

The Directors do not have a material personal interest in the issue of Incentive Options to another Director (or his nominee(s)).

All Directors were available to make a recommendation. The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolution. The Board is not aware of any other information that would reasonably be required by the Shareholders to allow them to make a decision whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass the Resolution.

19

Information Requirements – Listing Rules 10.11 and 10.13

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, the Company must not issue or agree to issue equity securities to:

  • a related party (Listing Rule 10.11.1);

  • 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 (Listing Rule 10.11.2);

  • 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 pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so (Listing Rule 10.11.3);

  • an Associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3 (Listing Rule 10.11.4); or

  • a person whose relationship with the Company or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by Shareholders (Listing Rule 10.11.5),

unless it obtains the approval of its Shareholders.

The proposed grant of Incentive Options to Mr Coupland falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.

If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue and grant Incentive Options to Mr Coupland as noted above.

If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue and will not grant Incentive Options to Mr Coupland and the Company may need to consider alternative ways to remunerate Mr Coupland, including by the payment of cash.

The following further information is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.13:

  • (a) the Incentive Options will be granted to Mr Coupland, or his nominees, as noted above;

  • (b) Mr Coupland is a proposed Director of the Company and as such is a related party for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.1;

  • (c) 4,000,000 Incentive Options will be granted to Mr Coupland;

  • (d) the material terms and conditions of the Incentive Options are set out in Annexure A to this Explanatory Memorandum. ASX approved the terms and conditions of the Incentive Options by email on 18 February 2021;

  • (e) the Incentive Options will be granted on a date which will be no later than 1 month after the date of this Meeting, unless otherwise extended by way of ASX granting a waiver to the Listing Rules;

  • (f) the Incentive Options will be granted for no consideration ;

  • (g) no funds will be raised from the grant of the Incentive Options. The funds raised from the exercise of the Incentive Options are intended to be used for general working capital;

20

  • (h) Mr Coupland is a proposed Director of the Company and the issue the subject of this Resolution is intended to remunerate or incentivise Mr Coupland, whose current total remuneration package is $36,000 per annum; and

  • (i) a voting exclusion statement applies to this Resolution as set out in the Notice of Meeting.

If approval is given for the grant of the Incentive Options under Listing Rule 10.11, approval is not required under Listing Rule 7.1.

Voting

Note that a voting exclusion applies to the Resolution in the terms set out in the Notice of Meeting.

Shareholders are urged to carefully read the Proxy Form and provide a direction to the proxy on how to vote on the Resolutions.

8 Resolution 8 – Ratification of Issue of Shares

On 24 February 2021, the Company issued 10,000,000 Shares at an issue price of A$0.0001 per Share to Jet Capital Pty Ltd utilising the Company’s Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity ( Advisor Shares ). The issue of the Advisor Shares raised A$1,000 which will be used for general working capital.

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of Equity Securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that period.

The issue of the Advisor Shares does not fit within any of these exceptions and, as it has not yet been approved by the Company’s Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date the Company issued Advisor Shares.

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a 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 Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1 and therefore seeks Shareholder approval to ratify the issue of the Advisor Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4.

If this Resolution is passed, the Advisor Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date the Company issued the Advisor Shares. In addition, the Advisor Shares will not be included in calculating the Company’s 10% capacity in Listing Rule 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under that rule.

If this Resolution is not passed, the Advisor Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date the Company issued the Advisor Shares. In addition, the Advisor Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s additional 10% capacity in Listing Rule 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under that rule.

21

The following information in relation to the Advisor Shares is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.5:

  • (a) the Advisor Shares were issued to Jet Capital Pty Ltd, all of who are unrelated parties of the Company;

  • (b) 10,000,000 Advisor Shares were issued;

  • (c) the Advisor Shares issued were fully paid ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company and rank equally in all respects with the existing fully paid ordinary Shares on issue;

  • (d) the Advisor Shares were issued on 24 February 2021;

  • (e) the Advisor Shares were issued at an issue price of $0.0001 each;

  • (f) the Advisor Shares were issued as a fee in connection with the Transaction; and

  • (g) a voting exclusion applies in respect of this Resolution as set out in the Notice of Meeting.
