Notice of Meeting - 2012 AGM (Final)(no proxy)

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 which are the subject of the business of the Meeting.

1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND REPORTS – AGENDA ITEM

In accordance with the Constitution, the business of the Meeting will include receipt and consideration of the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended June 2012 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 www.jupiterenergy.com.

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

Under changes to the Corporations Act which came into effect on 1 July 2011, 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 previous 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.

8

Notice of Meeting - 2012 AGM (Final)(no proxy)

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.

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 Annual General Meeting.

2.4 Proxy voting restrictions

Shareholders appointing a proxy for this Resolution should note the following:

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 . 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.

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).

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 mark the acknowledgement on the Proxy Form to expressly authorise the Chair to exercise his/her discretion in exercising your proxy even though this Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of Key Management Personnel .

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. RESOLUTION 2 AND 3 – RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS – MR GEOFFREY GANDER AND MR ALASTAIR BEARDSALL

Clause 13.2 of the Constitution requires that at the Company's annual general meeting in every year, one-third of the Directors for the time being, or, if their number is not a multiple of 3, then the number nearest one-third (rounded upwards in case of doubt), shall retire from office, provided always that no Director (except a Managing Director) shall hold office for a period in excess of 3 years, or until the third annual general meeting following his or her appointment, whichever is the longer, without submitting himself or herself for re-election.

The Directors to retire at an annual general meeting are those who have been longest in office since their last election, but, as between persons who became Directors on the same day, those to retire shall (unless they otherwise agree among themselves) be determined by drawing lots.

A Director who retires by rotation under clause 13.2 of the Constitution is eligible for re-election.

The Company currently has 4 Directors and accordingly 2 must retire.

9

Notice of Meeting - 2012 AGM (Final)(no proxy)

Mr Geoffrey Gander and Mr Alastair Beardsall, the Directors longest in office since their last election, retire by rotation and seek re-election.

4. RESOLUTION 4 – MAINTENANCE OF PERFORMANCE RIGHTS PLAN – EXECUTIVE

4.1 Background

In 2009, the Company adopted a performance rights plan under which eligible participants may be granted Performance Rights to acquire Shares in the Company. The Company wishes to maintain this performance rights plan, but limit its scope solely to employees and consultants who have been engaged by the Company for in excess of a year and who derive at least 80% of their income from the Company ( Consultants ). The limitation of the scope of the amended plan in this manner is consistent with current ASIC policy.

The intention of the Company’s amended performance rights plan ( PRP – Executive ) is to reward current executive directors, full-time and part-time employees and Consultants of the Company and to provide ongoing incentives as the Company continues to conduct its exploration activities.

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 for the PRP - Executive.

A Performance Right typically does not have an exercise price and therefore allows a recipient, subject to satisfaction of the relevant vesting conditions and performance hurdles (as applicable), to benefit by their Performance Rights vesting into ordinary shares in the Company.

The objective of the PRP - Executive is to provide the Company with a remuneration mechanism, through the issue of securities in the capital of the Company, to motivate and reward the performance of executive directors and full-time and part-time employees in achieving specified performance milestones within a specified performance period.

The Board will ensure that the performance milestones attached to the securities issued pursuant to the PRP - Executive are aligned with the successful growth of the Company’s business activities.

The executive directors, full-time and part-time employees of the Company and Consultants have been, and will continue to be, instrumental in the growth of the Company. The Directors consider that the PRP - Executive is an appropriate method to:

  • (a) reward executive directors, full-time and part-time employees and Consultants for their past performance;

  • (b) provide long term incentives for participation in the Company’s future growth;

  • (c) motivate executive directors, full-time and part-time employees and Consultants and generate loyalty; and

  • (d) assist to retain the services of valuable executive directors, full-time and part-time employees.

The PRP - Executive will be used as part of the remuneration planning for executive directors and full-time and part-time employees and Consultants.

10

Notice of Meeting - 2012 AGM (Final)(no proxy)

4.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

One of the exceptions to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is Listing Rule 7.2 – Exception 9, which provides that ASX Listing Rule 7.1 does not apply to an issue under an employee incentive scheme if, within the 3 years before the date of issue, shareholders have approved the issue as an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

The effect of Resolution 4 will be to allow the Directors to grant Performance Rights pursuant to the PRP - Executive during the period of 3 years after the Meeting (or a longer period, if allowed by ASX), and to issue Shares to those executive directors, full-time and part-time employees and Consultants if they achieve the performance and vesting conditions of the Performance Rights, without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.

In the case of a Director, no Performance Rights may be issued to the Director without separate Shareholder approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.14.

4.3 Information required by the ASX Listing Rules – Terms of the PRP - Executive

A summary of the Terms of the PRP - Executive is provided in Schedule 1. A copy of the PRP - Executive will be made available to any Shareholder on request.

2,133,335 Performance Rights have been issued under –Performance Rights Plan as at the date of the Explanatory Memorandum.

4.4 Offer of Performance Rights

It is proposed that an offer of Performance Rights under the PRP - Executive will be made to executive directors, Geoffrey Gander and Scott Mison, as described in Resolutions 5 and 6, subject to approval being obtained at the Annual General Meeting. The terms of the Performance Rights to be offered to Geoffrey Gander and Scott Mison are set out in Schedule 2.

It is also proposed that an offer of Performance Rights will be made to nonexecutive directors, Alastair Beardsall and Baltabek Kuandykov, as described in Resolutions 7 and 8, subject to approval being obtained at the Annual General Meeting. The offer of Performance Rights to Alastair Beardsall and Baltabek Kuandykov will not be made under the PRP – Executive. However, the offer of Performance Rights to Alastair Beardsall and Baltabek Kuandykov will be made on the same terms as the PRP – Executive, and are summarised in Schedule 3.

It is further proposed that an offer of Performance Rights will be made to John Kroshus, an employee of the Company. The offer of Performance Rights to John Kroshus will not be made under the PRP – Executive. However, the offer of Performance Rights to John Kroshus will be made on the same terms as the PRP – Executive, and are summarised in Schedule 3.

11

Notice of Meeting - 2012 AGM (Final)(no proxy)

5. RESOLUTIONS 5 AND 6 – ISSUE OF PERFORMANCE RIGHTS TO EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS GEOFFREY GANDER AND SCOTT MISON

5.1 Background

The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, to allot and issue a total of 1,866,666 Performance Rights to Geoffrey Gander and Scott Mison (and/or their nominee) ( Executive Directors ) under the Jupiter Energy Limited Performance Rights Plan – Executive ( PRP-Executive ) ( Executive Performance Rights ). A summary of the principal terms of the PRP - Executive is set out in Schedule 1.

The purpose of the grant of Executive Performance Rights to the Executive Directors is to provide retention incentive and to further motivate and reward the performance of the Executive Directors for performance in successfully executing the Company’s business plan and maximising value from the Company’s assets for the benefit of all Shareholders.

Resolutions 5 and 6 are conditional on the approval of the PRP-Executive pursuant to Resolution 4.

The issue of Executive Performance Rights to Geoffrey Gander is subject to his reelection as director pursuant to Resolution 2.

5.2

Requirement for Shareholder approval

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act requires that 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.

In addition, ASX Listing Rule 10.14 also requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities under an employee incentive scheme to a director of the entity, an associate of the director, or a person whose relationship with the entity, director or associate of the director is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained.

The issue of Executive Performance Rights to the Executive Directors requires the Company to obtain Shareholder approval because this issue constitutes giving a financial benefit and as Directors, the Executive Directors are each related parties of the Company.

It is the view of the Directors that the exceptions set out in Sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act do not apply in the current circumstances. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought for the issue of Executive Performance Rights to the Executive Directors.

5.3 Summary of the material terms of the Performance Rights

It is proposed that the Executive Directors be granted one class of Performance Rights, as set out below, for nil consideration.

12

Notice of Meeting - 2012 AGM (Final)(no proxy)

Each Executive Performance Right will vest as one Share subject to the satisfaction of certain performance criteria ( Vesting Condition ). In the event that the Vesting Condition is not met, the Executive Performance Rights will not vest and as a result, no new Shares will be issued. There is nil consideration payable upon the vesting of an Executive Performance Right.

The Board proposes that the Vesting Condition (defined below at section 5.4) apply to these grants of Executive Performance Rights.

5.4 Vesting Condition

Subject to a minimum increase of 25%, the Executive Performance Rights shall vest in proportion to the percentage increase in the Share price of the Company above 73.5 cents ( Vesting Condition ).

In respect of the Vesting Condition, the percentage increase in the Share Price of the Company will be calculated by reference to the volume weighted average price of Shares in the 20 consecutive trading days immediately prior to the Expiry Date (defined in Schedule 2).

The Board may, in its absolute discretion, determine that all or a specified number of a holder’s Executive Performance Rights automatically vest in the event of:

  • (a) a takeover bid in respect of the Company under Chapter 6 of the Corporations Act is made;

  • (b) a Court orders a meeting to be held in relation to a proposed compromise or arrangement for the purposes of or in connection with a scheme for the reconstruction of the Company or its amalgamation with any other company or companies;

  • (c) any person becomes bound or entitled to acquire shares in the Company under:

  • (i) section 414 of the Corporations Act; or

  • (ii) Chapter 6A of the Corporations Act;

  • (d) the Company passes a resolution for voluntary winding up; or

  • (e) an order is made for the compulsory winding up of the Company, and

such a determination shall be notified to the holder in writing. If no determination is made or if the Board determines that some or all of a holder’s Performance Rights do not vest, those Executive Performance Rights shall automatically lapse.

In the event the holder ceases to be a Director or employee prior to the satisfaction of the Vesting Condition, all Executive Performance Rights shall automatically lapse unless the holder ceases to be a Director as a result of being removed from office by Shareholders other than for misconduct in which case the Board may, in its absolute discretion, determine that all or a specified number of a holder’s Executive Performance Rights automatically vest.

A full summary of the terms and conditions attaching to the Executive Performance Rights is set out in Schedule 2.

Notice of Meeting - 2012 AGM (Final)(no proxy)

Gander recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolution for the following reasons:

  • (i) the grant of Executive Performance Rights to Scott Mison, in particular, the Vesting Conditions will align the interests of Scott Mison with those of Shareholders;

  • (ii) the grant of the Executive Performance Rights is a reasonable and appropriate method to provide cost effective remuneration as the non-cash form of this benefit will allow the Company to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on its operations than it would if alternative cash forms of remuneration were given to Scott Mison; and

6. RESOLUTIONS 7 AND 8 – ISSUE OF NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR PERFORMANCE RIGHTS TO ALASTAIR BEARDSALL AND BALTABEK KUANDYKOV

6.1 General

The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, to allot and issue a total of 3,000,000 Performance Rights to Alastair Beardsall and Baltabek Kuandykov ( Non-Executive Directors ) ( Non-Executive Performance Rights ).

These Non-Executive Performance Rights are not proposed to be offered under a plan. This is consistent with current ASIC policy. However, the Non-Executive Performance Rights will be issued on the same terms and conditions as the Executive Performance Rights which will be issued under the PRP - Executive. A summary of the principal terms on which the Non-Executive Performance Rights will be issued is set out in Schedule 3.

The purpose of the grant of Non-Executive Performance Rights to the NonExecutive Directors is to provide retention incentive and to further motivate and reward the performance of the Non-Executive Directors for performance in successfully executing the Company’s business plan and maximising value from the Company’s assets for the benefit of all Shareholders.

16

Notice of Meeting - 2012 AGM (Final)(no proxy)

Although the issue of the Non-Executive Performance Rights to the NonExecutive Directors is not in accordance with the recommendations contained in the Corporate Governance Council Guidelines, the Company considers it reasonable for the remuneration of non-executive directors to have a cash component and an equity component to further align non-executive directors’ interests with Shareholders and provide cost effective consideration to nonexecutive directors for their ongoing commitment and contribution to the Company as non-executive directors of the Company.

6.2 Requirement for Shareholder approval

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act requires that 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 grant of Non-Executive Performance Rights to the Non-Executive Directors requires the Company to obtain Shareholder approval because this issue constitutes giving a financial benefit and as Directors, the Non-Executive Directors are each Directors of the Company.

In addition, ASX Listing Rule 10.11 also requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a related party, or a person whose relationship with the entity or a related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained unless an exception in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 applies.

It is the view of the Directors that the exceptions set out in Sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act do not apply in the current circumstances. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought for the issue of the Non-Executive Performance Rights to the Non-Executive Directors.

6.3

Summary of the material terms of the Performance Rights

It is proposed that the Non-Executive Directors be granted one class of Performance Right as set out below, for nil consideration.

Each Non-Executive Performance Right will vest as one Share subject to the satisfaction of certain performance criteria (being the Vesting Condition). In the event that the Vesting Condition is not met, the Non-Executive Performance Rights will not vest and as a result, no new Shares will be issued. There is nil consideration payable upon the vesting of a Non-Executive Performance Rights.

The Board proposes that the Vesting Condition described below (being the same Vesting Condition attaching to the Executive Performance Rights) apply to these grants of Non-Executive Performance Rights.

17

Notice of Meeting - 2012 AGM (Final)(no proxy)

6.4 Vesting Condition

Subject to a minimum increase of 25%, the Non-Executive Performance Rights shall vest in proportion to the percentage increase in the Share price of the Company above 73.5 cents (being the Vesting Condition).

In respect of the Vesting Condition, the percentage increase in the Share price of the Company will be calculated by reference to the volume weighted average price of Shares in the 20 consecutive trading days immediately prior to the Expiry Date (defined in Schedule 1).

The Board may, in its absolute discretion, determine that all or a specified number of a holder’s Non-Executive Performance Rights automatically vest in the event of:

  • (a) a takeover bid in respect of the Company under Chapter 6 of the Corporations Act is made;

  • (b) a Court orders a meeting to be held in relation to a proposed compromise or arrangement for the purposes of or in connection with a scheme for the reconstruction of the Company or its amalgamation with any other company or companies;

  • (c) any person becomes bound or entitled to acquire shares in the Company under:

  • (i) section 414 of the Corporations Act; or

  • (ii) Chapter 6A of the Corporations Act;

  • (d) the Company passes a resolution for voluntary winding up; or

  • (e) an order is made for the compulsory winding up of the Company, and

such a determination shall be notified to the holder in writing. If no determination is made or if the Board determines that some or all of a holder’s Performance Rights do not vest, those Non-Executive Performance Rights shall automatically lapse.

In the event the holder ceases to be a Director, consultant or employee prior to the satisfaction of the Vesting Condition, all Non-Executive Performance Rights shall automatically lapse unless the holder ceases to be a Director as a result of being removed from office by Shareholders other than for misconduct in which case the Board may, in its absolute discretion, determine that all or a specified number of a holder’s Non-Executive Performance Rights automatically vest.

A full summary of the terms and conditions attaching to the Non-Executive Performance Rights is set out in Schedule 3.

8.1 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 ( 10% Placement Capacity ).

The Company is an Eligible Entity.

If Shareholders approve Resolution 10, the number of Equity Securities the Eligible Entity may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out in Section 8.2 below).

The effect of Resolution 10 will be to allow the Company to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of the Company’s fully paid ordinary securities on issue under the 10% Placement Capacity during the period up to 12 months after the Meeting, without subsequent Shareholder approval and without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity granted under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 10 is a special resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 10 for it to be passed.

8.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A came into effect on 1 August 2012 and enables an Eligible Entity to seek shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to issue Equity Securities in addition to those under the Eligible Entity’s 15% annual placement capacity.

An Eligible Entity is one that, as at the date of the relevant annual general meeting:

  • (a) is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index; and

  • (b) has a maximum market capitalisation (excluding restricted securities and securities quoted on a deferred settlement basis) of $300,000,000.

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 $80,523,289 .

22

Notice of Meeting - 2012 AGM (Final)(no proxy)

Any Equity Securities issued must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted Equity Securities. The Company currently has three classes of Equity Securities on issue, being:

  • (a) the Shares (ASX Code: JPR, AIM code: JPRL);

  • (b) unlisted options; and

  • (c) performance rights.

The exact number of Equity Securities that the Company may issue under an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated according to the following formula:

(A x D) – E

Where:

  • A is the number of Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

  • (i) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2;

  • (ii) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the previous 12 months;

  • (iii) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months with approval of holders of Shares under this rule; and

  • (iv) less the number of Shares cancelled in the previous 12 months.

  • D is 10%.

  • E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of holders of Ordinary Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.

8.3 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to this Resolution 10:

(a) Minimum Price

The minimum price at which the Equity Securities may be issued is 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 ASX 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; or

  • (ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 ASX trading days of the date in Section 8.3(b), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

23

Notice of Meeting - 2012 AGM (Final)(no proxy)

(b) Date of Issue

The Equity Securities may be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity commencing on the date of the Meeting and expiring on the first to occur of the following:

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

  • (ii) the date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under ASX Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of the Company’s activities) or 11.2 (disposal of the Company’s main undertaking) (after which date, an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A ceases to be valid).

or such longer period if allowed by ASX ( 10% Placement Capacity Period ).

(c) Risk of voting dilution

Any issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue.

If Resolution 10 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Capacity, 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 ASX Listing Rule 7.1A(2), on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of Equity Securities on issue as at the date of this Notice.

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 10% Placement Capacity.

24

Notice of Meeting - 2012 AGM (Final)(no proxy)

rata 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. The current shares on issue are the Shares on issue as at 1 October 2012.

  2. The issue price set out above is the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 1 October 2012.

  3. The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity.

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

  5. 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.

  6. This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

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.

(d) Purpose of Issue under 10% Placement Capacity

The Company may issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for the following purposes:

  • (i) as cash consideration in which case the Company intends to use funds raised for the development of Block 31, the Company’s wholly owned asset in Kazakhstan, including drilling of exploration and development wells and general working capital; or

  • (ii) as non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new resources assets and investments, in such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by listing Rule 7.1A.3.

(e) Allocation under the 10% Placement Capacity

The allottees of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been determined. However, the allottees 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 allottees at the time of the issue under the 10% Placement Capacity, 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 or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;

25

Notice of Meeting - 2012 AGM (Final)(no proxy)

  • (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 Approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

The Company has not previously obtained approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.

  • (g) Compliance with ASX Listing Rules 7.1A.4 and 3.10.5A

When the Company issues Equity Securities pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity, it will give to ASX:

  • (i) 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

  • (ii) the information required by Listing Rule 3.10.5A for release to the market.

8.4 Voting Exclusion

A voting exclusion statement is included in this Notice. As at the date of this Notice, the Company has not invited any existing Shareholder to participate in an issue of Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. Therefore, no existing Shareholders will be excluded from voting on Resolution 10.
