3. Resolutions 1 to 6 (inclusive) – Approval of Issue of Options to Directors and Past Director
3.1 General
Resolutions 1 to 6 (inclusive) seek Shareholder approval in accordance with Listing Rule 10.11 and Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act for the issue of a total of 100,000,000 Options to the Directors or Past Director (or their nominees) as follows:
- (a) Mr Brett Mitchell 30,000,000 Options; (b) Mr Andrew Leibovitch 10,000,000 Options; (c) Mr Tim Wise 5,000,000 Options; (d) Mr William Bloking 15,000,000 Options; (e) Mr Will Barker 10,000,000 Options; and (f) Mr Stephen Keenihan 30,000,000 Options
The Options will vest in accordance with the Vesting Conditions for each Director and the Past Director as detailed in Schedule 2.
The Options being issued to both the Directors and the Past Director are unlisted and are transferable at the discretion of the Board. No application for quotation of the Options will be made by the Company until such time as the Company in its absolute discretion determines otherwise.
Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval in accordance with Listing Rule 10.11 and Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act for the issue of 5,000,000 Options to Mr Wise. Whilst Mr Wise ceased to be a Director on 21 March 2011, by virtue of the operation of Section 228(5) of the Corporations Act, he is still considered to be a related party of the Company and accordingly requires Listing Rule 10.11 approval in addition to section 208(1) of the Corporations Act.
The issue of Options to Mr Wise are in consideration for the service Mr Wise has given to the Company during his 4 year tenure as Director. The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.
The purpose of the issue of the Options is to provide a mechanism to the Directors to participate further in the development of the Company and as incentive for their future involvement with, and commitment to, the Company. The Company acknowledges that the grant of options to non-executive Directors is contrary to recommendation 8.2 of the Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations. However, the Board considers the issue of Options in Resolutions 1 and 2 and 4 - 6 (inclusive) to be reasonable in the circumstances given the Company's size and stage of development whilst still maintaining a cash reserve.
Resolutions 1 – 6 (inclusive) are ordinary resolutions.
3.2 Necessary Approval
Shareholder approval is required under Listing Rule 10.11 and section 208 of the Corporations Act because the Directors and Past Director are related parties of the Company.
6
Approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required as approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11. Furthermore, Shareholder approval of the issue of Options means that the issue will not reduce the Company's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
3.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 10.13 and section 219 of the Corporations Act
Listing Rule 10.13 and section 219 of the Corporations Act require that the following information be provided to Shareholders for the purpose of obtaining Shareholder approval for the issue of the Options:
(a) 100,000,000 Options will be granted to the Directors and Past Director (or their nominees) as follows:
| ,000,000 Options will be minees) as follows: |
granted to the Directors and Past Dir |
|---|---|
| Name of Director | Number of Options to be issued |
| Brett Mitchell | 30,000,000 |
| Andrew Leibovitch | 10,000,000 |
| Tim Wise | 5,000,000 |
| William Bloking | 15,000,000 |
| Will Barker | 10,000,000 |
| Stephen Keenihan | 30,000,000 |
The Options will vest in accordance with the Vesting Conditions for each Director and the Past Director as detailed in Schedule 2.
(b) The Company is a junior listed company. The Company has limited funds, most of which are allocated to specific development activities. As a result, the Board has chosen to issue Options to the Directors as a key component of the incentive portion of their remuneration in order to retain the services of the Directors and to provide incentive linked to the performance of the Company. The Board considers that the experience of the Directors will greatly assist the development of the Company. As such, the Board believes that the number of Options to be granted to the Directors are commensurate with their value to the Company.
Given the speculative nature of the Company’s activities and the small management team responsible for its operation, it is considered that the performance of the Directors and the performance and value of the Company are closely related. As such, the Options issued will generally only be of benefit if the Directors perform to the level whereby the value of the Company increases sufficiently to warrant exercising the Options.
-
(c) Each Option will be issued for nil consideration. Each Option entitles the holder to subscribe for one (1) Share at an exercise price of $0.032 on or before 30 June 2015.
-
(d) The Options are unlisted and are transferable at the discretion of the Board. No application for quotation of the Options will be made by the Company until such time as the Company in its absolute discretion determines otherwise. Further terms and conditions of the Options are contained in Schedule 1.
7
-
(e) The Company will issue the Options no later than one (1) month after the date of the Meeting or such longer period of time as ASX may in its discretion allow.
-
(f) Each Director has an interest in the Resolutions under which Options will be issued to him and therefore believes it inappropriate to make a recommendation. Each Director recommends the issue of Options to each of the other Directors as it allows the Company to retain directors of high calibre and it aligns the interests of the Company and its Directors to maximise Shareholder value.
-
(g) The dilution effect if all of the Options granted are exercised is as follows:
| Current number of Shares on issue | 1,262,349,071 |
|---|---|
| Number of Options to be granted under Resolutions 1 to 7 (inclusive) |
100,000,000 |
| Dilution effect if all Options granted are exercised | 1,362,349,071 |
- (h) The current relevant interests in security holdings of the individuals receiving Options are as follows:
| Name | Shares | Options |
|---|---|---|
| Brett Mitchell | 11,250,000 | Nil |
| Andrew Leibovitch | 1,250,000 | Nil |
| Tim Wise | 7,132,421 | Nil |
| William Bloking | 890,000 | Nil |
| Will Barker | Nil | Nil |
| Stephen Keenihan | 5,550,000 Ordinary Shares 317,520,000 Converting Shares2 |
56,000,0001 |
1 Unlisted Options exercisable at 1.5c expiring 21 March 2015. Exercise of the Options is subject to certain vesting conditions relating to the Alberta Project.
2 Converting Shares convert to ordinary shares in the event that Amazon Project is not commercial.
-
(i) A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.
-
(j) No funds will be raised by the issue of the Options as they are being issued for nil consideration.
-
(k) Shareholders have previously approved an aggregate amount of up to $250,000 to be paid as directors fees. Previously the Directors have resolved that the Executive Director shall receive the amount of $120,000 per annum as a Director’s fee plus statutory superannuation and that each non-executive Director shall receive the amount of $36,000 per annum as Directors’ fees plus statutory superannuation.
8
(l) Amounts paid to Directors in the twelve (12) months to 23 March 2011 are as follows:
| Name of Director or Past Director |
Salary and Fees |
Super | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| $ | $ | $ | |
| Brett Mitchell | 147,750 | Nil | 147,750 |
| Andrew Leibovitch | 55,500 | Nil | 55,500 |
| Tim Wise | 33,500 | Nil | 33,500 |
| William Bloking | Nil | Nil | Nil |
| Will Barker | Nil | Nil | Nil |
| Stephen Keenihan | Nil | Nil | Nil |
On the basis of the assumptions below, independent accountants BDO has determined the technical value of one (1) Option approximates:
| Volatility | Value per Option | Total Value |
|---|---|---|
| 100% | $0.0148 | $1,776,660 |
| 75% | $0.115 | $1,380,000 |
| 50% | $0.0076 | $912,000 |
The value may go up or down after that date as it will depend on the future price of a Share. Black & Scholes methodology has been used, together with the following range of assumptions:
-
(i) interest rate set at the Commonwealth Government securities rate of 5.07%;
-
(ii) the date of valuation is for the purposes of settling the current market value of a Share was on the 16 March 2011, the day the Board resolved the issue;
-
(iii) at this date the Share price was $0.022 which is the price used in the valuation;
-
(iv) the standard deviation of returns of the Options is set at 50%, 75% and 100% which is based on the Company's historical data; and
-
(v) the Options will be exercisable upon issue.
-
(m) The market price of Shares would normally determine whether the Directors will exercise the Options or not. If the Options are exercised at a price that is lower than the price at which Shares are trading on ASX, there may be a perceived cost to the Company.
-
(n) Historical share price information for the last twelve months is as follows:
| Price | Date | |
|---|---|---|
| Highest | $0.029 | 29 March 2011 |
| Lowest | $0.012 | 30 November 2010 |
| Last | $0.028 | 28 March 2011 |
9
-
(o) Other than the information above and otherwise in this Explanatory Memorandum, the Company believes that there is no other information that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to pass Resolutions 1 to 7 (inclusive).
-
(p) As Shareholder approval is sought under Listing Rule 10.11, approval under Listing Rule 7.1 is not required.
4. Resolution 7 – Ratification of Issue of Options to Key Personnel
4.1 General

The Options were issued within the Company's 15% annual limit permitted under Listing Rule 7.1 without the need for Shareholder approval.
