EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.

The Explanatory Statement should be read in conjunction with the Notice of Meeting.

Shareholders should read the Notice of Meeting and this Explanatory Statement carefully before deciding how to vote on the Resolutions.

1. RESOLUTION 1 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE SHARES TO RELATED PARTY – BO TAN

1.1 Background

On 11 March 2022, the Company announced that it had entered into a loan agreement for $1 million with Bo Tan, a director of the Company ( Loan Agreement ).

1.2 Key terms of the Loan Agreement

Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, Mr Tan has provided the Company with an unsecured loan facility of $1 million for the purpose of providing working capital flexibility to the Company and supporting the advancement of the Company’s Kanyika Niobium Project. Interest of 8% per annum on the loan amount, capitalised monthly and calculated on a daily basis on a year of 365 days applies under the Loan Agreement.

The Loan Agreement provides that, subject to the approval of Shareholders, the Company may elect to convert some or all of the amount owing under the Loan Agreement (ie, the principal amount plus interest) into Shares, by the issue of Shares to Mr Tan at a deemed issue price of 6.35 cents per Share.

The Company has further agreed to repay the amount owing under the Loan Agreement to Mr Tan on 15 September 2022, unless conversion of that amount into Shares has already occurred. If the loan is not repaid in full (or converted into Shares) by 15 September 2022, interest thereon will default to 20% per annum.

On 4 August 2022, Mr Tan agreed to provide a further loan facility to the Company in the amount of $500,000, by way of a second tranche, on substantially identical terms as the Loan Agreement, including a term of 6 months and an interest rate of 8% per annum ( Second Loan Agreement ). The effect of this transaction is that, in addition to the Shares to be issued pursuant to Resolution 1, additional Shares will be issued to Mr Tan at 6.35 cents per Share should the Company elect to repay some or all of the amount owing under the Second Loan Agreement by the issue of Shares. The Company will convene a separate general meeting in due course for Shareholders to consider and vote on the conversion of any amount owed under the Second Loan Agreement into Shares.

1.3 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act requires that 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 in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; 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.

For the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, the issue of the Shares on conversion of the amount owing under the Loan Agreement constitutes the giving of a financial benefit to Mr Tan, who is a related party of the Company by virtue of him being a Director.

8

==> picture [99 x 36] intentionally omitted <==

It is the view of the Directors (other than Mr Tan) that the exceptions set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act do not apply to the conversion of the amount owing under the Loan Agreement. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought for the issue of Shares to Mr Tan for the purposes of section 208 of the Corporations Act.

1.4 Listing Rule 10.11

Listing Rule 10.11 requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a related party, or a person whose relationship with the entity or a related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained unless an exception in Listing Rule 10.12 applies.

It is the view of the Directors (other than Bo Tan) that the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply in the current circumstances. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought for the issue of Shares to Mr Tan for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.

1.5 Technical information required by section 219 of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.13

Pursuant to and in accordance with the requirements of section 219 of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of Shares to Bo Tan:

  • (a) the related party is Bo Tan by virtue of him being a Director;

  • (b) the maximum number of Shares to be issued to Bo Tan (being the nature of the financial benefit being provided) will be calculated by dividing the amount outstanding under the Loan Agreement by the deemed issue price of 6.35 cents per Share. At the date of this Notice of Meeting, the amount outstanding under the Loan Agreement is $1,034,224.74, which equates to 16,287,004 Shares;

  • (c) the Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company and will be issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares;

  • (d) the Shares will be issued to Bo Tan no later than one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as is permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules), and it is anticipated that all Shares will be issued on the same date;

  • (e) the Shares will be issued for the conversion of the amount owing under the Loan Agreement, at a deemed issue price of 6.35 cents per Share. The deemed issue price represents a 5% discount to the volume weighted average price of the Company’s Shares trading on ASX between 2 March 2022 and 8 March 2022 (being 5 trading days prior to the date the Loan Agreement was executed by the Company);

  • (f) the Company will not receive any funds upon the issue of the Shares as they are issued in consideration for the conversion of the amount owing under the Loan Agreement (converting a debt owed by the Company into equity, thereby reducing the Company’s debt);

  • (g) the funds advanced by Bo Tan pursuant to the Loan Agreement are being used by the Company to provide working capital flexibility, and to support the advancement of the Company’s Kanyika Niobium Project;

  • (h) the Shares are not intended to remunerate or incentivise Bo Tan;

  • (i) Bo Tan holds no relevant interest in any Equity Securities as at the date of this Notice of Meeting;

  • (j) the remuneration and emoluments from the Company to Bo Tan for the prior financial year and the proposed remuneration for the current financial year are set out below:

Related party Current Financial Year
(ending 30 June 2023)
Prior Financial Year
(ended 30 June 2022)
Bo Tan $58,000 58,000

9

==> picture [99 x 36] intentionally omitted <==

  • (k) if the amount outstanding under the Loan Agreement is converted into Shares at a conversion price that is less than the price of the Shares that are currently trading on ASX, there may be a perceived cost to the Company. The Board resolved to issue the Shares, subject to Shareholder approval, on the terms and conditions set out in this Notice of Meeting at a time when the Shares were trading on ASX at a price on or around the conversion price under the Loan Agreement. The Board resolved to issue the Shares to Bo Tan when the previous closing price of Shares on ASX was 6.7 cents;

  • (l) the trading history of the Shares on ASX in the 12 months before the date of this Notice of Meeting is set out below:

Trading Share Price Date
Highest $0.195 19 August 2021
Lowest $0.063 7 March 2022
Last $0.083 21 July2022
  • (m) the primary purpose of the issue of the Shares to Bo Tan is to convert the outstanding loan amount provided under the Loan Agreement, which is a debt owing by the Company, to equity, thereby reducing the Company’s debt. The loan was provided at a time when the Company needed to secure such funds for the purpose of providing it with the working capital flexibility and at a time when it has continued to tender and bid for new work in accordance with its stated business objectives;

  • (n) if Resolution 1 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of Shares to Mr Tan, calculated as 16,287,004 Shares as at the date of this Notice of Meeting, which has the potential to increase the number of Shares on issue from 465,922,373 to 482,209,377 (assuming no other Shares are issued) , with the effect that the shareholdings of existing Shareholders will be diluted by approximately 3.38%. Mr Tan declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 1 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that he will be issued the Shares should Resolution 1 be passed. Further, Mr Tan did not vote on the proposal for the Company to enter into the Loan Agreement at the relevant Board meeting;

  • (o) the Directors, other than Bo Tan, recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1 for the reasons set out below:

  • (i) the issue of the Shares to Bo Tan will align the interests of Bo Tan with those of Shareholders;

  • (ii) the issue of the Shares will also extinguish the liability of the Company to repay the amounts owing under the Loan Agreement upon issue of the Shares;

  • (iii) the issue of the Shares is a reasonable and appropriate method to provide cost effective consideration as the non-cash form of this benefit will allow the Company to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on its operations than it would if alternative cash forms of consideration were used to service the loan; and

  • (iv) the Board does not consider that there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company, or benefits foregone by the Company, in issuing the Shares to Bo Tan on the terms proposed;

  • (p) with the exception of Bo Tan, no other Director has a personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 1;

  • (q) in forming their recommendations, each Director also considered the current market price of the Shares, the current market practices when determining the number of Shares to be issued as well as the conversion price of the loan;

  • (r) section 1.2 of this Explanatory Statement contains a summary of the material terms of the Loan Agreement under which the Shares are proposed to be issued;

  • (s) a voting exclusion statement has been included in respect of Resolution 1; and

10

==> picture [99 x 36] intentionally omitted <==

  • (t) the Directors are not aware of any other information that would reasonably be required by Shareholders to allow them to make a decision as to whether it is in the best interests of the Shareholders to pass Resolution 1.

1.6 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 1 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Shares within one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules) and the amount outstanding under the Loan Agreement will be reduced to nil. As approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Shares (because approval is being sought under Listing Rule 10.11), the issue of the Shares will not use up any of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Shares to Bo Tan and the full amount outstanding under the Loan Agreement will become due and payable by the Company on 15 September 2022.

1.7 Voting intention

The Chair intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1.

2. RESOLUTION 2 – ADOPTION OF EMPLOYEE SHARE OPTION PLAN

2.1 Overview

Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder approval for the adoption of the employee incentive scheme titled “Employee Share Option Plan” ( Employee Share Option Plan ) in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)).

The Company does not currently have an employee incentive scheme in place and wishes to adopt one to provide Options as incentives to its employees.

The objective of the Employee Share Option Plan is to attract, motivate and retain key employees and it is considered by the Company that the adoption of the Employee Share Option Plan and the future issue of Options under the Employee Share Option Plan will provide selected employees with the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company.

The Employee Share Option Plan will operate in accordance with ASIC class order CO 14/1000.

2.2 Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.2 (Exception 13(b))

Broadly, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the number 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 12 month period.

Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)) provides that Listing Rule 7.1 does not apply to an issue of securities under an employee incentive scheme if, within 3 years before the date of issue of the securities, the holders of the entity’s ordinary securities have approved the issue of Equity Securities under the scheme as an exception to Listing Rule 7.1.

Exception 13(b) is only available if and to the extent that the number of Equity Securities issued under the scheme does not exceed the maximum number set out in the entity’s notice of meeting dispatched to shareholders in respect of the meeting at which shareholder approval was obtained pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)). Exception 13(b) also ceases to be available if there is a material change to the terms of the scheme from those set out in the notice of meeting.

If Resolution 2 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Options under the Employee Share Option Plan to eligible participants of the Employee Share Option Plan over a period of 3 years. The issue of any such Options to eligible participants under the Employee Share Option Plan (up to the maximum number of Options stated in section 2.3) 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.

11

==> picture [99 x 36] intentionally omitted <==

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company must seek Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14 in respect of any future issues of Options under the Employee Share Option Plan to a related party or a person whose relationship with the Company or the related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained.

If Resolution 2 is not passed, the Company may still issue Options to key personnel other than Directors on the terms set out in Schedule 1, however those Equity Securities will count towards the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

2.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b))

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)), the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 2:

  • (a) a summary of the key terms of the Employee Share Option Plan is set out in Schedule 1;

  • (b) the Company has not issued any Options under the Employee Share Option Plan as this is the first time that Shareholder approval is being sought for the adoption of the Employee Share Option Plan; and

  • (c) the maximum number of Equity Securities proposed to be issued under the Employee Share Option Plan, following Shareholder approval, is 23,000,000 Options which equates to approximately 5% of the Company’s current issued capital as at the date of this Notice of Meeting (excluding any Equity Securities proposed to be issued under Resolution 1 and Resolutions 3 to 6).

2.4 Board recommendation

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

2.5 Voting intention

The Chair intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 2.

3. RESOLUTIONS 3 TO 6 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE OPTIONS TO DIRECTORS

3.1 General

The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval to adopt the Employee Share Option Plan (Resolution 2), to issue a total of 5,000,000 Options (as set out in the table below) to each of Mr Lau, Mr Tan, Mr Barrett, and Mr Choi (or their nominee(s)) (together, the Proposed Recipient Directors ) pursuant to the Employee Share Option Plan.

The Company proposes to issue the Options as follows:


Lau, Mr Tan, Mr Barrett, and Mr Choi (or their nominee(s)) (to
tors) pursuant to the Employee Share Option Plan.
ompany proposes to issue the Options as follows:

gether, theProposed Re
Director Number
Ricky Lau 1,250,000
Bo Tan 1,250,000
Michael Barrett 1,250,000
Michael Choi 1,250,000

The Options are being issued to incentivise and reward the Proposed Recipient Directors.

The number of Options to be issued to the Proposed Recipient Directors is determined based on the experience of the relevant Director, the nature and scale of the role of the relevant Director, and to provide ongoing equity incentives to advance the Company and its assets.

12

==> picture [99 x 36] intentionally omitted <==

3.2 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act regulates the provision of financial benefits to related parties by a public company. Section 208 of the Corporations Act prohibits a public company giving a financial benefit to a related party of that public company unless one of a number of exceptions applies.

The issue of Options to the Proposed Recipient Directors constitutes the giving of a financial benefit and each of the Proposed Recipient Directors is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director. It is the view of the Company that the exceptions set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act do not apply in the current circumstances. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought for the issue of Options to each of the Proposed Recipient Directors and the Company will not issue the Options unless Shareholder approval is granted.

3.3 Listing Rule 10.14

Listing Rule 10.14 provides that an entity must not permit a director to acquire Equity Securities under an employee incentive scheme without the approval of the holders of its ordinary securities.

The issue of Options to the Proposed Recipient Directors falls within Listing Rule 10.14 and therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.14.

Resolutions 3 to 6 seek Shareholder approval for the issue of the Options to the Proposed Recipient Directors for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.14.

3.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolutions 3 to 6 are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with issuing the Options to the Proposed Recipient Directors under the Employee Share Option Plan within 3 years after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by an ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules). As approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Options (because approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.14), the issue of the Options will not use up any of the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolutions 3 to 6 are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Options to the Proposed Recipient Directors and alternative forms of remuneration may need to be negotiated.

3.5 Technical information required by Listing Rule 10.15 and section 219 of the Corporations Act

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 10.15 and section 219 of the Corporations Act, the following information is provided in relation to Resolutions 3 to 6:

  • (a) the related parties are Ricky Lau, Bo Tan, Michael Barrett, and Michael Choi (or their respective nominee(s)), who each fall within the category set out in Listing Rule 10.14.1 by virtue of being Directors;

  • (b) the maximum number of Options to be issued to the Proposed Recipient Directors (being the nature of the financial benefit provided) is 5,000,000, comprising:

  • (i) 1,250,000 Options to Ricky Lau (or his nominee(s));

  • (ii) 1,250,000 Options to Bo Tan (or his nominee(s));

  • (iii) 1,250,000 Options to Michael Barrett (or his nominee(s)); and

  • (iv) 1,250,000 Options to Michael Choi (or his nominee(s));

  • (c) as this is the first time that Shareholder approval is being sought for the adoption of the Employee Share Option Plan, no Options have been previously issued under the Employee Share Option Plan;

  • (d) a summary of the material terms and conditions of the Options is set out in Schedule 2 and a summary of the material terms and conditions of the Employee Share Option Plan is set out in Schedule 1;

13

==> picture [99 x 36] intentionally omitted <==

  • (e) the Options will be issued to the Proposed Recipient Directors no later than one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) and it is intended that the issue of the Options will occur on the same date;

  • (f) the Options will be issued for nil cash consideration and accordingly no funds will be raised (other than in respect of funds received on exercise of the Options);

  • (g) the value of the Options and the pricing methodology is set out in Schedule 3;

  • (h) each of the Proposed Recipient Directors hold no Equity Securities as at the date of this Notice of Meeting:

  • (i) the current total remuneration package of each of the Proposed Recipient Directors and their associates for the prior financial year, and the proposed remuneration for the current financial year (excluding the Options), is set out below:

Related party

Current Financial Year
(ending 30 June 2023)
Prior Financial Year
(ended 30 June 2022)
Ricky Lau $57,000 $57,000
BoTan $58,000 $58,000
Michael Barrett (1) $58,000 $30,510
Michael Choi (2) $57,000 $29,984
  • (1) Mr Barrett was appointed as a Director on 17 December 2021. Entitlement to fees in Prior Financial Year is a pro rata amount from the date of appointment until 30 June 2022.

  • (2) Mr Choi was appointed as a Director on 17 December 2021. Entitlement to fees in Prior Financial Year is a pro rata amount from the date of appointment until 30 June 2022.

(j) if all Options granted to the Proposed Recipient Directors are exercised, a total of 5,000,000 Shares would be allotted and issued. This will increase the number of Shares on issue from 465,922,373 to 470,922,373 (assuming no other Options are exercised and no other Shares are issued, including under Resolution 1, if approved) with the effect that the shareholding of existing Shareholders would be diluted by an aggregate of 1.06%;

The market price of Shares during the term of the Options would normally determine whether or not the Options are exercised. If, at a time any of the Options are exercised and the Shares are trading on ASX at a price that is higher than the exercise price of the Options, there may be a perceived cost to the Company;

(k) the trading history of the Shares on ASX in the 12 months before the date of this Notice of Meeting is set out below:


eting is set out below:
Trading Share Price Date
Highest $0.195 19 August 2021
Lowest $0.063 7March 2022
Last $0.083 21 July 2022

(l) the primary purpose of the issue of the Options is to reward the Proposed Recipient Directors and to provide cost effective remuneration to the Proposed Recipient Directors for their ongoing commitment and contribution to the Company in their respective roles as Directors, whilst allowing the Company to maintain cash reserves for acquisitions and operations. The Directors do not consider that there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company in issuing the Options to the Proposed Recipient Directors;

(m) if Messrs Lau, Tan, Barrett, and Choi exercise all Options the subject of Resolutions 3 to 6 and no other Shares are issued by the Company, they would each hold 0.26% of the issued capital of the Company (on an undiluted basis);

14

==> picture [99 x 36] intentionally omitted <==

  • (n) the Board does not consider there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company in issuing the Options to the Directors;

  • (o) the Options are not being issued under any agreement and no loan is being made to any of the Proposed Recipient Directors in connection with the issue of the Options;

  • (p) details of any Options issued under the Employee Share Option Plan will be published in the annual report of the Company relating to the period in which they were issued, along with a statement that approval for the issue was obtained under Listing Rule 10.14;

  • (q) any additional persons covered by Listing Rule 10.14 who become entitled to participate in an issue of Options under the Employee Share Option Plan after Resolutions 3 to 6 are approved and who were not named in this Notice of Meeting will not participate until approval is obtained under Listing Rule 10.14;

  • (r) a voting exclusion statement has been included in respect of each of Resolutions 3 to 6; and

  • (s) the Directors are not aware of any other information that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to allow them to make a decision as to whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass Resolutions 3 to 6.

3.6 Board recommendation

Each of the Directors (other than Mr Lau in respect of Resolution 3, Mr Tan in respect of Resolution 4, Mr Barrett in respect of Resolution 5, and Mr Choi in respect of Resolution 6) recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolutions 3 to 6 for the following reasons:

  • (a) the Options are unquoted, therefore the issue of the Options has no immediate dilutionary impact on Shareholders;

  • (b) the grant of the Options to the Proposed Recipient Directors will align the interests of the Proposed Recipient Directors with those of Shareholders;

  • (c) the grant of the Options is a reasonable and appropriate method to provide cost effective remuneration as the non-cash form of this benefit will allow the Company to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on its operations than would be the case if alternative cash forms of remuneration were given to the Proposed Recipient Directors;

  • (d) it is not considered that there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company or benefits foregone by the Company in granting the Options upon the terms proposed; and

  • (e) in forming their recommendations, each Director (other than Mr Lau in respect of Resolution 3, Mr Tan in respect of Resolution 4, Mr Barrett in respect of Resolution 5, and Mr Choi in respect of Resolution 6) considered the experience of each other Director, the current price of the Shares trading on ASX, and current market practices when determining the basis of issue of the Options and the expiry date of those Options.

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of 1,250,000 Options to Mr Lau which has the potential to increase the number of Shares on issue from 465,922,373 to 467,172,373 (assuming all of Mr Lau’s Options are exercised and no other Options are exercised and no other Shares are issued), with the effect that the shareholdings of existing Shareholders will be diluted by approximately 0.27%. Mr Lau declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 3 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution as the proposed recipient of 1,250,000 Options. Further, Mr Lau did not vote on the proposed issue of Options to him when the matter was considered at the relevant Board meeting.

If Resolution 4 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of 1,250,000 Options to Mr Tan which has the potential to increase the number of Shares on issue from 465,922,373 to 467,172,373 (assuming all of Mr Tan’s Options are exercised and no other Options are exercised and no other Shares are issued), with the effect that the shareholdings of existing Shareholders will be diluted by approximately 0.27%. Mr Tan declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 4 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution as the

15

==> picture [99 x 36] intentionally omitted <==

proposed recipient of 1,250,000 Options. Further, Mr Tan did not vote on the proposed issue of Options to him when the matter was considered at the relevant Board meeting.

If Resolution 5 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of 1,250,000 Options to Mr Barrett which has the potential to increase the number of Shares on issue from 465,922,373 to 467,172,373 (assuming all of Mr Barrett’s Options are exercised and no other Options are exercised and no other Shares are issued), with the effect that the shareholdings of existing Shareholders will be diluted by approximately 0.27%. Mr Barrett declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 5 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution as the proposed recipient of 1,250,000 Options. Further, Mr Barrett did not vote on the proposed issue of Options to him when the matter was considered at the relevant Board meeting.

If Resolution 6 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of 1,250,000 Options to Mr Choi which has the potential to increase the number of Shares on issue from 465,922,373 to 467,172,373 (assuming all of Mr Choi’s Options are exercised and no other Options are exercised and no other Shares are issued), with the effect that the shareholdings of existing Shareholders will be diluted by approximately 0.27%. Mr Choi declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 6 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution as the proposed recipient of 1,250,000 Options. Further, Mr Choi did not vote on the proposed issue of Options to him when the matter was considered at the relevant Board meeting.
