Explanatory Memorandum

1. Introduction

This Explanatory Memorandum is provided to shareholders of Southern Gold Limited ACN 107 424 519 ( SAU or Company ) to explain the Resolutions to be put to Shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting to be held at 10 George Street, Stepney SA on 26 March 2020 commencing at 12 noon (Adelaide time).

The Notice of Meeting, which is also enclosed , sets out details of the proposal concerning the seven Resolutions to be put to Shareholders.

The Directors recommend shareholders read the accompanying Notice of Meeting and this Explanatory Memorandum in full before making any decision in relation to the Resolutions.

Unless otherwise defined, the Terms used in this Explanatory Memorandum are defined in section 10.

2. Background to the Placement

2.1 Background

On 11 February 2020 the Company announced that it proposed to raise $10 million through an issue of a total of 71,428,574 fully paid ordinary shares at an issue price of $0.14 per share ( Placement Shares ) to raise $10,000,000 (before costs) ( Placement ).

The Placement’s proceeds will be used to fund the diamond drilling of 4 key projects and 2 scout drilling programmes in South Korea, the associated supporting costs for the diamond drilling programme and its technical team, for overall project generation, as well as for general corporate costs and administration, including costs associated with the Placement.

The Company appointed Ashanti Capital to act as joint lead manager and bookrunner to the Placement.

Pursuant to a cornerstone investor subscription agreement, Metal Tiger plc (UK company number 04196004) ( MTR ) has agreed to subscribe for 23,809,521 of the Placement Shares to raise a total of $3,333,333 ( Subscription Agreement ). Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, MTR also has the right to appoint one director to the Company for so long as MTR holds an interest in the Company of at least 10%. Prominent geologist Terry Grammer has been nominated by MTR, and will be appointed as a director subject to completion of the Placement.

The remainder of the Placement Shares are proposed to be issued to other sophisticated investors.

The issue of the Placement Shares requires Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1. If the issue of the Placement Shares is approved by Shareholders, it is anticipated that the Placement Shares will be issued and allotted to the Placement Recipients on or about 31 March 2020.

3. Resolution 1 - Approval of Issue of Placement Shares

3.1 Background

Resolution 1 is an ordinary resolution and seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of the Placement Shares and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1. Further details in relation to the Placement are set out in Section 2 above.

3.2 Listing Rule 7.1

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions (none of which apply in respect of the Placement), Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can

Explanatory Memorandum

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 ( 15% Capacity ).

Resolution 1 seeks shareholder approval for the Placement for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1, so that the issue of those Placement Shares does not count towards the Company’s 15% Capacity.

If Resolution 1 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the Placement and the Placement Shares 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 1 is not passed, the Company will not proceed with the Placement and will need to examine alternative sources of funding (including an issue of Shares utilising the Company’s 15% Capacity).

• 3.3 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 the Placement:

• (a) the Placement Shares will be allotted to the Placement Recipients, being

• (g) a voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice of Meeting.

3.4 Directors’ Recommendation

The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1. Any undirected proxies held by the Chairman will be voted in favour of Resolution 1.

4. Resolutions 2 to 5 – Approval of Issue of Placement Shares to Directors

4.1 General

Resolutions 2 to 5 are an Ordinary Resolutions and seek Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11 for Mr Greg Boulton, Mr David Turvey, Mr Peter Bamford and Mr Bee Jay Kim, being Directors of the Company, to participate in the Placement on the same terms as unrelated investors. Further details in relation to the Placement are set out in Section 2 above.

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, inter alia, a related party of the Company, unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders. Mr Boulton, Mr Turvey, Mr Bamford and Mr Kim are related parties of the Company and, accordingly, approval under Listing Rule 10.11 is required in order to issue Placement Shares to them.

If approval is given under Listing Rule 10.11 approval will not be required under Listing Rule 7.1, and the Shares issued pursuant to Resolution 2 to 5 will not be included in the calculation of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

Under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, a public company cannot give a “financial benefit” to a related party unless one of the exceptions to the section apply or shareholders have in general meeting approved the giving of that financial benefit to the related party.

An issue of shares may constitute a financial benefit for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act. However, as the issue of Placement Shares to the related parties is proposed to occur on the same terms as the issue of Placement Shares to unrelated investors, the issue is considered to be on “arms’ length” terms and therefore falls within the exception in

Explanatory Memorandum

section 210 of the Corporations Act. Shareholder approval is therefore not sought for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

4.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 10.13

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the Boulton Issue:

• (a) The Placement Shares will be issued to Mr Greg Boulton, Mr David Turvey, Mr Peter Bamford and Mr Bee Jay Kim (or their respective nominees). These parties are directors and related parties for the purpose of Listing Rule 10.1.1;

• (b) the maximum number of Shares to be issued pursuant to Resolutions 2 to 5 is 1,242,858 comprising:

• (1) 714,286 Shares to Mr Greg Boulton;

• (2) 214,286 Shares to Mr David Turvey,

• (3) 100,000 Shares to Mr Peter Bamford; and

• (4) 214,286 Shares to Mr Bee Jay Kim;

• (c) the Shares will be issued on the same terms as, and will rank equally with, all fully paid ordinary shares in the Company on issue;

• (d) the Shares are anticipated to be issued on 31 March 2020 and, in any event, no later than 1 month after the date of the Meeting;

• (e)

• the price of each Share is $0.14;

• (f) the funds raised will be used for the same purposes as all the other funds raised under the Placement; and

• (g)

• a voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice of Meeting.

5. Resolution 6 and 7- Approval of Issue of Options to Mr Douglas Kirwin and Mr Terry Grammer

5.1 General

Resolutions 6 and 7 are ordinary resolutions and seek Shareholder approval for the issue of unlisted Options exercisable at $0.24 per Option within 4 years from the date of issue to Mr Douglas Kirwin, Director of the Company, and Mr Terry Grammer, a proposed Director of the Company, for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11, on the terms detailed in 5.2 below.

Mr Grammer will retire in accordance with the Company’s rules at the next Annual General Meeting of Shareholders and re-appointment will be subject to Shareholder approval.

Mr Grammer’s issue of options is subject to the shareholder approval of Resolution 1 and that he is appointed as a Director of the Company.

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, inter alia, a related party of the Company, unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.

If approval is given under Listing Rule 10.11, approval will not be required under Listing Rule 7.1, and the Options issued pursuant to Resolutions 6 and 7 will not be included in the calculation of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

Explanatory Memorandum

In accordance with section 208 of the Corporations Act, to give a financial benefit to a related party, the Company must obtain Shareholder approval unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception in sections 210-216 of the Corporations Act.

The Board considers the proposed grant of Options is reasonable as part of Mr Kirwin’s and Mr Grammer’s remuneration, having regard to the circumstances of the Company and the responsibilities of their positions as a Directors, and as a means of incentivising them. The proposed issue of Options is considered to fall within the exception in section 211 of the Corporations Act and Shareholder approval is therefore not sought for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

The Options will not be quoted on the ASX, will lapse if Mr Kirwin or Mr Grammer (respectively) cease to be a Director, will be transferable only with the consent of the Board and will otherwise be issued on standards terms set out in the Listing Rules with respect to the treatment of Options in the case of reconstructions, bonuses, and rights issues

Explanatory Memorandum

Schedule 1 - Terms of Options to be Issued to Directors (Resolutions 6 and 7)

1. Each Option is an option to subscribe for one ordinary fully paid share in the capital of the Company (subject to possible adjustment in accordance with these terms and conditions).

2. The exercise price of the Options will be equal to 24 cents to the number of options provided in each resolution.

3. Shares issued on exercise of the Options will rank pari passu with all existing ordinary shares in the Company from the date of issue.

4. The Options may be exercised wholly or in part by notice in writing to the Company received at any time on or before the expiry date (being the date 4 years after the date of grant of the Options), together with payment for the exercise price and the Option certificates (if any) for those Options for cancellation by the Company.

5. The Company will allot the number of shares the subject of any exercise notice, and apply, at its cost, for quotation of the shares so allotted.

6. The Option holder will be permitted to participate in new issues of securities of the Company only if the Options are exercised prior to the record date for the new issue of securities.

7. In the event of any reconstruction (including consolidation, reduction, or return) of the issued capital of the Company:

8. 7.1. the number of Options, the exercise price of the Options, or both will be reconstructed (as appropriate) in a manner consistent with the Listing Rules, but with the intention that such reconstruction will not result in any benefits being conferred on the holder of the Option which are not conferred on Shareholders; and

9. 7.2. subject to the provisions with respect to rounding of entitlements as sanctioned by a meeting of Shareholders approving a reconstruction of capital, in all other respects the terms for the exercise of the Options will remain unchanged.

10. If there is to be a pro rata issue (except a bonus issue) to holders of ordinary shares in the capital of the Company, the exercise price of an Option may be reduced according to the following formulae:

Oⁿ = O – E[P-(S+D)]

N + 1

E = the number of underlying securities into which one Option is exercisable;

• P = the volume weighted average market price (within the meaning of the Listing Rules) per security of the underlying securities during the 5 day trading period ending on the day before the ex rights date or the ex entitlement date;

• S = the subscription price for a security under the pro rata issue

• D = dividend due but not yet paid on the existing underlying securities (except those to be issued under the pro rata issue);

• N = the number of securities with rights or entitlements which must be held to receive a right to one new security.

• If there is a bonus issue to the holders of shares in the Company, the number of shares over which the Option is exercisable may be increased by the number of shares which the Option holder would have received if the Option had been exercised prior to the record date

Explanatory Memorandum

for the bonus issue.

1. The terms of the Options shall be changed if holders (whose votes are not to be disregarded) of ordinary shares in the Company approve such a change. However the terms of the Options shall not be changed to reduce the exercise price, increase the number of Shares over which the Options is exercisable, or increase the period for exercise of the Options.

2. In the event that any recipient Director ceases to be a Director of the Company, for any reason, any Options not exercised prior to that event will lapse.
