Dear Paradigm Metals Limited Shareholder,

Paradigm Metals Limited ( Paradigm or Company ) is pleased to offer eligible shareholders the opportunity to sell their small shareholding without incurring any brokerage or handling costs.

This offer applies to shareholders who at 5:00pm WST on 4 August 2014 ( Record Date ) were holders of ordinary shares in Paradigm ( shares ) valued at less than $500 ( Unmarketable Parcel ) based on a price of $0.002 per share, being the closing price of shares on the Australian Securities Exchange ( ASX ) on the Record Date.

Paradigm is offering this facility as it provides the following benefits:

  • Holders of less than a marketable parcel have the opportunity to sell their shares without incurring a brokerage or handling cost which, in proportion to the value of their holding, may otherwise render a sale unattractive or uneconomical; and

  • The expense and administration involved in maintaining shareholders with less than a marketable parcel is reduced.

Attached is a copy of the correspondence being sent to eligible shareholders.

Dear Paradigm Metals Limited Shareholder,

Notice of Intention to Sell Shares of Less than a Marketable Parcel

Paradigm Metals Limited ( Paradigm or Company ) is pleased to offer eligible shareholders the opportunity to sell their small shareholding without incurring any brokerage or handling costs.

This offer applies to shareholders who at 5:00pm WST on 4 August 2014 ( Record Date ) were holders of ordinary shares in Paradigm ( shares ) valued at less than $500 ( Unmarketable Parcel ) based on a price of $0.002 per share, being the closing price of shares on the Australian Securities Exchange ( ASX ) on the Record Date.

Paradigm is offering this facility as it provides the following benefits:

  • Holders of less than a marketable parcel have the opportunity to sell their shares without incurring a brokerage or handling cost which, in proportion to the value of their holding, may otherwise render a sale unattractive or uneconomical; and

  • The expense and administration involved in maintaining shareholders with less than a marketable parcel is reduced.

The Company has approximately 1,068 shareholders of which approximately 830 hold less than a marketable parcel of shares that in aggregate represent approximately 9.17% of all issued shares.

Our records show that you are the holder of an Unmarketable Parcel as at the Record Date and accordingly your shareholding is eligible to participate in this share sale facility. You may choose to sell all of your holding or retain your existing holding as explained below.

The options are described below:

1. Sell all of your Unmarketable Parcel

If you wish to sell your shares without incurring brokerage or handling costs, you do not need to take any action other than completing a Direct Credit Facility form (enclosed). Paradigm is authorised under Clause 5.4 and 5,5 of its Constitution to sell your shares following the closing date of 22 September 2014 ( closing date ). Your shares will be pooled with other shares under this facility and sold as soon as practicable after the closing date.

Paradigm has appointed CPS Capital Pty Ltd to act as an execution-only broker on behalf of shareholders to effect any sales under this facility.

The price that you receive for your shares under the Facility will be determined by when and how the shares are sold. Paradigm directors may sell your shares on market or in any other way they consider fair and reasonable in the circumstances. If the shares are sold on market the price will depend on a number of factors, including market conditions at the time of sale. You will not have control over the time at which your shares are sold, the price you receive may be different from the price appearing in the newspaper or quoted by ASX on any day, may not be the best price on the day that your shares are sold and may be an average price per share based on the price obtained for all the shares sold under the facility. If the Paradigm directors sell your shares other than on market, the price will be the price that the Paradigm directors have been able to negotiate with the acquirer or acquirers.

Paradigm may also consider buying your shares back under a minimum holding buy-back. Any shares bought back by Paradigm will be at a price equal to the simple average of the closing price of the Company’s shares quoted on ASX for the ten trading days prior to the date on which your shares are bought back. If Paradigm decides to proceed with the sale of your shares under a minimum holding buy-back, your shares will be transferred to Paradigm, and will then be immediately cancelled in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth).

Sale proceeds will be paid to you in Australian dollars by direct credit. You must complete and return the enclosed Direct Credit Facility form. Non-resident holders who do not have an account with an Australian Financial Institution will be paid in Australian dollars by cheque. Amounts less than $100 which remain unclaimed at the conclusion of the statutory period for unclaimed monies will be donated to a charity of the Company’s choice.

All costs associated with the sale or buy-back of your Shares will be borne by the Company. No brokerage will be payable by you.

If your shares are held in a CHESS holding, Paradigm may, after the closing date initiate a holding adjustment to move your shares to the issuer sponsored sub-register for the purpose of this facility.

Any tax consequences arising from the sale or buy-back of your shares will be your responsibility.

2. Retain your existing holding

If you wish to retain your existing holding then you must either:

  • correctly complete, sign and return the enclosed Share Retention Form so that it is received by 5.00pm WST on 22 September 2014, being the closing date of this facility;

  • if you hold shares in multiple holdings, arrange to have these holdings merged into one holding which has 250,000 or more shares on the closing date; or

  • make your own arrangements outside this facility to purchase additional shares so that you are the registered holder of 250,000 or more shares on the closing date.

If you successfully take one of these steps, Paradigm will not be entitled to sell or buy back your shares.

Important information

Paradigm reserves the right to vary, delay or terminate this sale facility by notice to the ASX.

Paradigm is not bound to sell or buy back any or all of the shares that may be available for it to sell under this facility, and there is no guarantee that Paradigm will be able to sell your shares or that it will buy them back. In addition, the sale proceeds may differ from the market value of your shares on the Record Date, depending on movements in the market price of the shares and on the Company appointed broker’s ability to procure purchasers.

The Company will determine whether a shareholder has a less than marketable parcel as at the Record Date. The Company will not have any reference to any increase in the price of shares after the Record Date in determining whose shares may be sold or bought back pursuant to this facility.

If you have a less than marketable parcel as at the Record Date, then unless you take one of the steps outlined in section 2 of this letter, Paradigm will be entitled to sell or buy back your shares under this facility.

None of Paradigm, CPS Capital Pty Ltd, or any other person involved in the facility shall be liable for failure to sell the shares or at a particular price. The price of Paradigm shares is subject to change and an up-to-date price can be obtained from the ASX website (www.asx.com.au) under the code “PDM”.

Paradigm does not make any recommendation or provide any advice to you regarding whether to sell your holding under this facility or retain your existing holding.

If you require advice as to whether to sell your shares, please consult your legal, financial or taxation adviser.

For further information, please contact the Company on +61 8 9200 4491 between the hours of 8.30am and 5.00pm WST Monday to Friday.

Yours faithfully

On behalf of the Board of Paradigm Metals Limited Brian McMaster Director
