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.

1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND REPORTS

In accordance with the Corporations Act, the business of the Meeting will include receipt and consideration of the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2023 together with the declaration of the Directors, the Directors’ report, the Remuneration Report and the auditor’s report.

The Company will not provide a hard copy of the Company’s annual financial report to Shareholders unless specifically requested to do so. The Company’s annual financial report is available on its website at https://alderanresources.com.au/ .

2. RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT

2.1 General

The Corporations Act requires that at a listed company’s annual general meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted must be put to the shareholders. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the company or the directors of the company.

The remuneration report sets out the company’s remuneration arrangements for the directors and senior management of the company. The remuneration report is part of the directors’ report contained in the annual financial report of the company for a financial year.

The chair of the meeting must allow a reasonable opportunity for its shareholders to ask questions about or make comments on the remuneration report at the annual general meeting.

2.2 Voting consequences

A company is required to put to its 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 a remuneration report resolution are voted against 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 cast are in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene a shareholder meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting.

All of the directors of the company who were in office when the directors' report (as included in the company’s annual financial report for the most recent financial year) was approved, other than the managing director of the company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting.

Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election as directors of the company is approved will be the directors of the company.

8

2.3 Previous voting results

At the Company’s previous annual general meeting the votes cast against the remuneration report considered at that annual general meeting were less than 25%. Accordingly, the Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Meeting.

3. RESOLUTION 2 – RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTOR – TOM EADIE

3.1 General

Listing Rule 14.4 and clause 15.2 of the Constitution provide that, other than a managing director, a director of an entity must not hold office (without reelection) past the third annual general meeting following the director’s appointment or three years, whichever is the longer. However, where there is more than one managing director, only one is entitled to be exempt from this rotation requirement.

Mr Tom Eadie, who has served as a Director since 23 January 2017 and was last re-elected on 27 November 2020, retires by rotation and seeks re-election.

3.2 Qualifications and other material directorships

Mr Eadie is a well-credentialed mineral industry leader and explorer with broad experience in both the big end and small end of town. He was the founding Chairman of Syrah Resources, Copper Strike, Southern Cross Gold and Discovery Nickel as well as a founding Director of Royalco Resources and Alderan Resources.

At Syrah, he was at the helm during acquisition, discovery and early feasibility work of the huge Balama graphite deposit in Mozambique which began production in 2017. Copper Strike, where he was also Managing Director for 10 years, made several significant copper/gold and lead/zinc/silver discoveries in North Queensland, while Discovery Nickel (later to be renamed Discovery Metals), found and developed the Boseto copper deposit in Botswana.

Prior to this, Mr Eadie was Executive General Manager of Exploration and Technology at Pasminco Limited, at the time the largest zinc producer in the world. This came after technical and later management responsibilities at Cominco and Aberfoyle in the 1980s.

Mr Eadie has a Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Geology and Geophysics from the University of British Columbia, a Master of Science in Physics (Geophysics) from the University of Toronto and a Graduate Diploma in Applied Finance and Investment from the Security Institute of Australia. He is a past board member of the Australian Institute of Mining & Metallurgy (AusIMM) and a Member of the Financial Services Institute of Australasia (FINSIA).

3.3 Independence

If re-elected the Board considers Mr Eadie to be an independent Director.

3.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

In the event that Resolution 2 is not passed, Mr Eadie will not join the Board as an independent Director. The Company may seek nominations or otherwise identify suitably qualified candidates to join the Company. As an additional consequence, this may detract from the Board and Company’s ability to execute on its strategic vision.

9

3.5 Board recommendation

The Board has reviewed Mr Eadie’s performance since his appointment to the Board and considers that their skills and experience will continue to enhance the Board’s ability to perform its role. Accordingly, the Board supports the re-election of Mr Eadie and recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

4. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL OF 7.1A MANDATE

4.1 General

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.

However, under Listing Rule 7.1A, an eligible entity may seek shareholder approval by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25% ( 7.1A Mandate ).

An ‘eligible entity’ means an entity which is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300,000,000 or less. The Company is an eligible entity for these purposes.

As at the date of this Notice, the Company is an eligible entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a current market capitalisation of $7,400,336 (based on the number of Shares on issue and the closing price of Shares on the ASX on 21 September 2023).

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval by way of special resolution for the Company to have the additional 10% placement capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval.

For note, a special resolution is a resolution requiring at least 75% of votes cast by shareholders present and eligible to vote at the meeting in favour of the resolution.

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities up to the combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without any further Shareholder approval.

If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the additional 10% capacity to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A and will remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing Equity Securities without Shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.

4.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.1A

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to Resolution 3:

(a) Period for which the 7.1A Mandate is valid

The 7.1A Mandate will commence on the date of the Meeting and expire on the first to occur of the following:

  • (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of this Meeting;

10

  • (ii) the time and date of the Company’s next annual general meeting; and

  • (iii) the time and date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change in the nature or scale of activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of the main undertaking).

(b) Minimum price

Any Equity Securities issued under the 7.1A Mandate must be in an existing quoted class of Equity Securities and be issued for cash consideration at a minimum price of 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • (i) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed by the entity and the recipient of the Equity Securities; or

  • (ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 trading days of the date in Section 4.2(b)(i), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

(c) Use of funds raised under the 7.1A Mandate

The Company intends to use funds raised from issues of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate for the purposes of raising funds for continued investment in the Company's current assets, the acquisition of new assets or investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition), and/or for general working capital.

(d) Risk of Economic and Voting Dilution

Any issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue.

If Resolution 3 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 7.1A Mandate, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below.

The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in Listing Rule 7.1A.2, on the basis of the closing market price of Shares and the number of Equity Securities on issue or proposed to be issued as at 21 September 2023.

The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 7.1A Mandate.

*The number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a prorata rights issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

The table above uses the following assumptions:

  1. There are currently 1,815,194,645 Shares on issue comprising:

  2. (a) 616,694,644 existing Shares as at the date of this Notice; and

  3. (b) 1,198,500,001 Shares which will be issued if Resolution 4 to Resolution 14 are passed at this Meeting.

  4. The issue price set out above is the closing market price of the Shares on the ASX on 21 September 2023 (being $0.012).

  5. The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate.

  6. The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

  7. The issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate consists only of Shares. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities. If the issue of Equity Securities includes quoted Options, it is assumed that those quoted Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.

  8. The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.

  9. This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under Listing Rule 7.1 unless otherwise disclosed.

  10. The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.

  11. The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 7.1A Mandate, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.

Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:

  • (i) the market price for the Company’s Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and

  • (ii) the Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Shares on the date of issue.

12

(e) Allocation policy under the 7.1A Mandate

The recipients of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 7.1A Mandate have not yet been determined. However, the recipients of Equity Securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company.

The Company will determine the recipients at the time of the issue under the 7.1A Mandate, having regard to the following factors:

  • (i) the purpose of the issue;

  • (ii) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue, share purchase plan, placement or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;

  • (iii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;

  • (iv) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company;

  • (v) prevailing market conditions; and

  • (vi) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).

(f) Previous issue under Listing Rule 7.1A

The Company previously obtained approval from its Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 25 November 2022 ( Previous Approval ).

During the 12 month period preceding the date of the Meeting, the Company has not issued any Equity Securities pursuant to the Previous Approval. However, in the event that between the date of this Notice and the date of this Meeting the Company proposes to make an issue of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A to one or more existing Shareholders, those Shareholders’ vote will be excluded under the voting exclusion statement for this Resolution.”

10.1 General

As summarised in Section 5.5 above, the Company has entered into an agreement to issue 17,500,000 Lead Manager Shares, together with one (1) free attaching Option for every two Shares issued, in consideration for Lead Manager services provided by Peak Asset Management in relation to the Capital Raising ( Lead Manager Securities ).

The proposed issue of the Lead Manager Securities does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2.

Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 so that it does not use up any of its 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

10.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 10 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Lead Manager Securities. In addition, the issue of the Lead Manager Securities 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 10 is not passed, the issue of the Lead Manager Securities can still proceed but it will reduce, to that extent, the Company’s capacity to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for 12 months following the issue.

Resolution 10 is conditional on Resolution 9 also being passed. Therefore, if Resolution 9 is not passed, the Board will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Lead Manager Securities.

Resolution 10 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of the Lead Manager Securities.

10.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.3

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 10:

25

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

11. RESOLUTION 11 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE BROKER OPTIONS

11.1 General

As summarised in Section 5.5, the Company has entered into an agreement to issue 50,000,000 Options in part consideration for Lead Manager services provided by Peak Asset Management ( Broker Options ).

As summarised in Section 4.1 above, 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 shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

The proposed issue of the Broker Options does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2. While the issue does not exceed the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 and can therefore be made without breaching that rule, the Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 so that it does not use up any of its 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

11.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 11 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Broker Options. In addition, the issue of the Broker Options 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 11 is not passed, the issue of the Broker Options can still proceed but it will reduce, to that extent, the Company’s capacity to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for 12 months following the issue.

26

Resolution 11 is conditional on Resolution 9 also being passed. Therefore, if Resolution 9 is not passed, the Board will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Broker Options.

Resolution 11 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of the Broker Options.

11.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.3

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 11:

  • (a) the Broker Options will be issued to Peak Asset Management;

  • (b) the maximum number of Broker Options to be issued is 50,000,000. The terms and conditions of the Broker Options are set out in Schedule 1;

  • (c) the Broker Options will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules) and it is intended that issue of the Broker Options will occur on the same date;

  • (d) the Broker Options will be issued at a nil issue price, in consideration for Lead Manager services provided by Peak Asset Management;

  • (e) the purpose of the issue of the Broker Options is to satisfy the Company’s obligations under the Lead Manager Mandate;

  • (f) the Broker Options are being issued to Peak Asset Management under the Lead Manager Mandate. A summary of the material terms of the Lead Manager Mandate are set out in Section 5.5; and

  • (g) the Broker Options are not being issued under, or to fund, a reverse takeover.

12. RESOLUTION 12 TO RESOLUTION 14 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE SECURITIES TO DIRECTORS IN LIEU OF DIRECTOR FEES

12.1 General

The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, to issue the following Shares at a deemed issue price of $0.006 per Share ( Related Party Shares ) and Options exercisable at $0.016 on or before 9 September 2025 ( Related Party Options ) to the directors of the Company ( Related Parties ):

  • (a) 20,833,333 Related Party Shares and 10,416,666 Related Party Options to Scott Caithness;

  • (b) 4,000,000 Related Party Shares and 2,000,000 Related Party Options to Tom Eadie; and

  • (c) 6,166,667 Related Party Shares and 3,083,334 Related Party Options to Peter Williams,

(together, the Related Party Securities ) in lieu of directors’ fees payable to the Related Parties as at 31 August 2023.

27

The Related Party Shares and the Related Party Options are on the same terms as the Capital Raising Shares and Capital Raising Options, respectively.

Resolution 12 to Resolution 14 seek Shareholder approval for the issue of the Related Party Securities.

12.2 Director recommendation

Each Director has a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 12 to Resolution 14 on the basis that all of the Directors (or their nominees) are to be issued Equity Securities should Resolution 12 to Resolution 14 be passed. For this reason, the Directors do not believe that it is appropriate to make a recommendation on Resolution 12 to Resolution 14 of this Notice.

12.3 Chapter 2E 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 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.

The Participation will result in the issue of Equity Securities which constitutes giving a financial benefit. Scott Caithness, Tom Eadie and Peter Williams are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.

As the Related Party Securities are proposed to be issued to all of the Directors, the Directors are unable to form a quorum to consider whether one of the exceptions set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act applies to the issue of the Related Party Securities. Accordingly, Shareholder approval for the issue of the Related Party Securities in respect of the Participation is sought in accordance with Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

12.4

Listing Rule 10.11

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed company must not issue or agree to issue Equity Securities to:

  • 10.11.1 a related party;

  • 10.11.2 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;

  • 10.11.3 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 of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so;

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

28

  • 10.11.5 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 its shareholders,

unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.

The Related Parties fall within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and do 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 12 to Resolution 14 require Shareholder approval for the issue of the Related Party Securities under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.

12.5 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 12 to Resolution 14 are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Related Party Securities 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). As approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Related Party Securities (because approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11), the issue of the Related Party Securities will not use up any of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.

If Resolution 12 to Resolution 14 are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Related Party Securities and instead will be required to pay the Directors their Director fees in cash.

12.6 Technical Information required by Listing Rule 10.13 and section 219 of the Corporations Act
