Entitlement to Vote
The Directors have determined that the persons eligible to vote at the Annual General Meeting are those who are registered Shareholders of the Company at 11am (EST) on 28 May 2014.
Terms and abbreviations used in this Notice of Meeting are defined in the Glossary.
Page 4
E X P L A N A T O R Y S T A T E M E N T
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of Shareholders in connection with the business to be conducted at the Annual General Meeting to be held at 11am on Friday, 30th May 2014 at Room 5, Australian Institute of Company Directors Business Centre & Member Lounge, Level 1, 20 Bond Street, Sydney NSW 2000.
The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether to vote for or against the Resolutions in the Notice of Meeting.
Terms used in this Explanatory Statement will, unless the context otherwise requires, have the same meaning as given to them in the Glossary as contained in this Explanatory Statement.
1. Annual Report
Shareholders have been notified that the Torian Resources NL Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2013 can be found on the
Company’s website (www.torianresources.com.au) under ‘Investors’ and have been given the option of having a printed copy of the Annual Report sent to them. The Annual Report has been sent to those Shareholders who have requested it. During discussion of this Item, there will be an opportunity for Shareholders to ask questions about, or comment on, the Report and the Company.
2. Remuneration Report
you do not need to direct your proxy how to vote on this Resolution. However, if you do not direct the Chair how to vote, you must expressly acknowledge and authorise the Chair to exercise your proxy on this Resolution (except where you have indicated a different voting intention on the proxy form) even if he has an interest in the outcome of the Resolution. You do this by marking both the first box to appoint the chair as your poxy and the second box on the proxy form.
If you appoint any other person as your proxy, you do not need to direct your proxy how to vote on this Resolution, and you do not need to mark any further acknowledgement on the Proxy Form.
3. Election of Directors
2.1 General
3.1 General
The Remuneration Report is contained in the Directors’ Report section of the Annual Report. The Remuneration Report sets out the remuneration details for each director and specified executives of the Company (if any).
A reasonable opportunity will be provided for discussion of the Remuneration Report at the Meeting. Under section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act, a resolution that the Remuneration Report be adopted must be put to the vote. This item is taken for advisory purposes only and any vote taken at the meeting will not bind the Directors or the Company.
2.2 Voting Consequences
Under the Corporations Act, companies are required to put to shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of another meeting of shareholders to consider the appointment of directors of the company ( Spill Resolution ) if, at consecutive annual general meetings, at least 25% of the votes cast on the remuneration report are voted against the adoption of the remuneration report and at the first of those annual general meetings a Spill Resolution was not put to vote. If required, the Spill Resolution must be put to vote at the second of those annual general meetings.
If more than 50% of votes are cast in favour of a Spill Resolution, the company must convene a shareholder meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting. At that meeting, all directors who were in office at the time of the directors’ report, other than the managing director, will cease to hold office immediately before the Spill Meeting. Those persons who are elected or re-elected at the Spill Meeting will be the directors of the company. Note those directors who ceased to hold office immediately prior to the Spill Meeting may stand for re-election.
2.3 Previous Voting Results
At the Company’s last annual general meeting the resolution to adopt the remuneration report was passed unanimously on a show of hands. Accordingly, a Spill Resolution is not relevant to this Annual General Meeting.
2.4 Voting
Shareholders appointing a proxy to vote on this Resolution should note that if you appoint a member of the Key Management Personnel (other than the Chair) whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report, or a Closely Related Party of such a member as your proxy, you must direct your proxy how to vote on this Resolution. Any undirected proxies granted to these persons will not be voted and will not be counted in calculating the required majority if a poll is called on this Resolution.
Article 108 of the Company’s Articles of Association requires that at every annual general meeting, one third of Directors retire by rotation and if their number is not a multiple of three, then the nearest number but not exceeding one third shall retire. For this purpose, and all other purposes including article 109 of the Articles of Association, Ian Johns retires by rotation and being eligible submits himself for re-election at the Meeting.
The following background information is provided about Ian Johns.
3.2 Ian Johns
Ian Johns was first appointed as a Director of the Company on 9 December 2008. He brings over 20 years of operational business experience to the Torian Board. Ian consults in the manufacturing industry as well as a business developer and contract negotiator. Ian was a founding director of Royalco Resources; a successful royalty income based mineral exploration company.
The Board recommends that shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.
4. Approval of Additional Share Placement Capacity
4.1 General
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an Eligible Entity may seek Shareholder approval at its Annual General Meeting to allow it to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued capital ( Additional Placement Capacity ). For the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1A an ‘eligible entity’ is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. Torian Resources is an ‘eligible entity’. The Additional Placement Capacity is in addition to the Company’s 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and, as such, if the Additional Placement Capacity is approved, the Directors will be allowed to issue equity securities of up to 25% of the Company’s issued share capital without prior approval from shareholders.
The Company seeks Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to have the ability to issue equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity, should the need arise.
As a special resolution at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders eligible to vote at the meeting must be in favour of the resolution for it to be passed.
If you appoint the Chair as your proxy (where he/she is also a member of the Key Management Personnel whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report, or a Closely Related Party of such a member),
Page 5
4.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1A Requirements
Pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.3 the issue price for each security issued under the Additional Placement Capacity will not be less than 75% of the volume weighted average price for securities in that class over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:
-
the date on which the price at which the securities are to be issued is agreed; or
-
if the securities are not issued within 5 trading days of the date above, the date on which the securities are issued.
The issue of equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity may result in voting dilution of existing ordinary shareholders (as shown in the table below). There is also the risk that:
-
the market price for equity securities in that class may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Annual General Meeting; and
-
the equity securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those equity securities on the issue date.
-
Equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity may be issued until the earlier of:
-
the date that is 12 months after the date of the Annual General Meeting at which the approval is obtained; or
-
the date of approval by ordinary shareholders of a significant change to the Company’s activities under ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2 or the date of approval by ordinary shareholders of a disposal of a major asset under ASX Listing Rule 11.2.
To be clear, any approval of the Additional Placement Capacity at this Annual General Meeting will cease to be valid in the event that ordinary shareholders approve a transaction under ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2 or 11.2.
The Company may issue equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity for the following purposes:
-
non-cash consideration: for the acquisition of new assets and investments (in such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.3); or
-
cash consideration: to raise funds for the exploration and development of the Company’s existing assets, the acquisition of new assets or investments (including assets associated with such acquisition), to repay debt or to fund working capital.
The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A.4 and 3.10.5A upon issue of any equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity.
The Company’s allocation policy for issues under the Additional Placement Capacity is dependent on prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue. The identity of the allottees of the equity securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factors including but not limited to the following:
-
the purpose of the issue;
-
the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company, including rights issues or other issues in which existing shareholders may participate;
-
the effect of the issue of the equity securities on the control of the Company;
-
the financial situation and solvency of the Company;
-
prevailing market conditions; and
-
advice from the Company’s advisors.
As the Company has no current plans to undertake a new capital raising, the allottees under the Additional Placement Capacity have not yet been determined but if such an exercise was undertaken, allottees may include existing substantial shareholders and/or new shareholders who are not related parties or associates of a related party of the Company.
Further, if the Company is successful in acquiring new resources, assets or investments, it is likely that the allottees under the Additional Placement Capacity will be vendors of the new resources, assets or investments.
A voting exclusion statement has been included in this Notice. However, as at the date of this Notice, the Company has not approached any particular existing Shareholders to participate in the issue of equity securities under the Additional Placement Capacity. No existing Shareholders’ votes will therefore be excluded under the voting exclusion in the Notice.
When the Company issues equity securities pursuant to the Additional Placement Capacity, it will give to ASX:
-
a list of the allottees of the equity securities and the number of equity securities allotted to each (not for release to the market), in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A.4; and
-
the information required by Listing Rule 3.10.5A for release to the market.
Table 1 following shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculate in accordance with the formula outlined in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A(2) on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of ordinary securities for variable "A" calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A(2) as at the date of this Notice. The table also shows:
-
(i) two examples where variable “A” has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable “A” is based on the number of ordinary securities the Company has on issue. The number of ordinary securities on issue may increase as a result of issues of ordinary securities that do not require Shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or future specific placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders’ meeting or any resolutions passed at this Meeting; and
-
(ii) two examples of where the issue price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.
