This Explanatory Memorandum accompanies the Notice of General Meeting of KGL to be held at the offices of McCullough Robertson Lawyers, Level 11, 66 Eagle Street, Brisbane, Queensland on Monday, 23 October 2017 at 9.30am (Brisbane time).
The Explanatory Memorandum has been prepared to assist shareholders in determining how to vote on the resolutions proposed and ought to be read in conjunction with the Notice of Meeting.
Background - Placement
-
1 On 13 September 2017, KGL announced that will undertake a capital raising of $12.4 million (before offer costs) by way of a placement of approximately 22.8 million KGL Shares to institutional and sophisticated investors ( Placement ) and a pro rata non ‐ renounceable rights issue ( Entitlement Offer ).
-
2 The Placement is being conducted in two tranches:
-
(a) an initial placement of 18,500,000 Shares ( First Tranche Shares ), which completed on or about 18 September 2017 ( First Tranche ); and
-
(b) a subsequent placement of an additional 4,333,333 Shares ( Second Tranche Shares ), to directors of KGL, which is anticipated to complete on or about Monday, 23 October 2017 ( Second Tranche ) (subject to shareholder approval).
-
3 The First Tranche Shares and the Second Tranche Shares both have an issue price of $0.30 per share ( Issue Price ).
-
4 Directors (and their controlled entities) have applied for 4,333,333 Shares, which comprise the Second Tranche Shares (and will be issued subject to Shareholder approval).
-
5 The funds raised from the Placement and the Entitlement Offer will be used for further drilling at KGL’s 100% owned Jervois Copper Project in the Northern Territory and working capital.
-
6 As announced on 12 September 2017, KGL has completed down hole electromagnetic (DHEM) surveys and is awaiting assay results from recent drilling at the Reward Prospect. Separately the assays announced on 4 September 2017 for recent holes drilling at Rockface, delivered good continuity of high-grade copper mineralisation, which will assist in future exploration planning. KGL will announce the results of these assays in due course.
Resolution 1 – Ratification of previous issue of Shares to institutional and sophisticated investors
-
7 Resolution 1 seeks approval from shareholders under Listing Rule 7.4 (and for all other purposes) to ratify the previous issue of the First Tranche Shares to institutional and sophisticated investors on or about 18 September 2017.
-
8 Listing Rule 7.1 provides that, subject to certain exemptions, prior approval of shareholders is required for an issue of equity securities if the securities will, when aggregated with the securities issued by KGL during the previous 12 months, exceed 15% of the number of the securities at the commencement of that 12 month period.
45552990v1 Notice of general meeting

-
9 The issue of First Tranche Shares detailed in this resolution did not exceed KGL’s 15% threshold. However, Listing Rule 7.4 provides that where KGL ratifies an issue of equity securities, the issue is treated as having been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.1, thereby replenishing KGL’s 15% capacity and enabling it to issue further equity securities up to that limit.
-
10 Resolution 1 proposes the ratification and approval of the allotment and issue of the First Tranche Shares for the purpose of satisfying the requirements of Listing Rule 7.4. Details of the issue are set out below.
| Issue date | 18 September 2017 |
|---|---|
| Number of securities | 18,500,000 KGL Shares |
| Issue price per security | $0.30 per KGL Share |
| Terms of issue | The Shares rank equally with all existing Shares on issue |
| Allottees | KMP Investments Pte Ltd RFC Opportunities Fund Redland Plains Pty Ltd ATF Majestic Investment Trust |
| Intended use of funds | Proceeds of the issue will be used to will be used for further drilling at KGL’s 100% owned Jervois Copper Project in the Northern Territory and working capital. |
Directors’ recommendation
- 11 The Directors unanimously recommend you vote in favour of this resolution.
Resolution 2 – Approval of issue of Shares to Mr Denis Wood
-
12 Resolution 2 seeks approval from shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11 (and for all other purposes) for the issue of Shares to Mr Denis Wood, Executive Chairman of KGL, as part of the issue of Placement Shares.
-
13 Listing Rule 10.11 requires KGL to obtain the approval of shareholders prior to the issue of securities to a related party. ‘Related party’ is defined in the Listing Rules to include the Directors and their spouses, as well as entities controlled by the Directors. Therefore, the issue of Placement Shares to Mr Wood as contemplated by Resolution 2 requires shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.11 before the Shares can be issued.
-
14 If approval is obtained pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11, KGL will be entitled to rely on Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 14 as an exception to any requirement that may otherwise apply requiring shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
-
15 Mr Wood (or entities controlled by him) has subscribed for 4,000,000 Shares under the Placement, which, subject to shareholder approval under Resolution 2, will be issued on or about 23 October 2017.

- 17 The Directors consider that the issue of Shares to Mr Denis Wood will be on arms’ length terms as the Shares will be on the same terms to all other parties who participate in the Placement, regardless of whether they are associated with KGL or not. Accordingly, the proposed issue of securities falls within the ‘arms length terms’ exemption provided by section 210 of the Corporations Act to the requirement to obtain shareholder approval under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.
Directors’ recommendation
- 18 The Directors (with Mr Wood abstaining) recommend that shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.
Resolution 3 – Approval of issue of Shares to Mr Ferdian Purnamasidi

-
20 Listing Rule 10.11 requires KGL to obtain the approval of shareholders prior to the issue of securities to a related party. ‘Related party’ is defined in the Listing Rules to include the Directors and their spouses, as well as entities controlled by the Directors. Therefore, the issue of Placement Shares to Mr Purnamasidi as contemplated by Resolution 3 requires shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.11 before the Shares can be issued.
