Specifically, the Company is required to notify ASX of information about specific events and matters as they arise for the purposes of the ASX making that information available to the securities markets conducted by the ASX. In particular, the Company has an obligation under the Listing Rules (subject to certain exceptions) to notify the ASX immediately of any information of which it is or becomes aware which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price of value of its securities.

This Offer Document is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include information that would be included in a disclosure document or which investors ought to have regard to in deciding whether to subscribe for Shares under the Offer.

4. EFFECT OF RIGHTS ISSUE ON CONTROL AND DIRECTOR PARTICIPATION

4.1

Effect on Control

The effect of the Rights Issue on the control of the Company, and the consequences of that effect, will depend upon a number of factors, including the level of take up from Eligible Shareholders. The primary consequences will be as follows:

  • (a) If all Eligible Shareholders as at the Record Date take up their full Entitlement, the Rights Issue will have no effect on the control of the Company and all Shareholders will hold the same percentage interest in the Company subject only to changes resulting from Excluded Shareholders being unable to participate in the Rights Issue.

  • (b) In the more likely event that not all Eligible Shareholders subscribe for their full Entitlement (ie there is a Shortfall), Eligible Shareholders who do not subscribe for their full Entitlement under the Rights Issue and Excluded Shareholders unable to participate in the Rights Issue will be diluted relative to those Shareholders who subscribe for some or all of their Entitlement. The extent of the dilution will depend on the degree to which Eligible Shareholders take up their Entitlement. The maximum dilution if you do not take up your Entitlement will approach 25% if nearly all Eligible Shareholders other than you take up their full Entitlement. The Directors have advised the Company that they intend to take up their full Entitlement.

  • (c) By reason of existing shareholdings in the Company and the structure of the Rights Issue no Shareholder can increase their voting power beyond 20% by reason of the Rights Issue.

  • (d) Anthony Barton has the largest relevant interest in Shares in the Company. At the Record Date he has a relevant interest in 36,371,285 Shares (an 11.69% relevant interest) and he and his associates intend to take up their full Entitlement of 12,123,762 Shares. Based on holdings at the Record Date, the maximum relevant interest that Anthony Barton may achieve as a result of the Rights Issue is 14.43% which will occur in the event that he and his associates take up their full Entitlement and only Minimum Subscription is achieved. Tony Barton (as with the other Directors) reserves the right to buy more Shares on market subject to applicable laws including insider trading and takeover restrictions.

By reason of the above, the Company is of the view that the Rights Issue will not materially affect the control of the Company.

4.2

Directors' Interests and Participation

The relevant interest of each of the Directors in the securities of the Company as at the Record Date together with their respective Entitlement is set out in the table below.

Director Shares Options Entitlement

The relevant interest in these securities is recorded against each of Anthony Barton and Greg MacMillan in the table above.

  3. The Directors have advised the Company that they intend to take up their full Entitlement.

5. RISK FACTORS

5.1 Introduction

Applicants should be aware that an investment in the Company is highly speculative. The Company is focusing on exploring the copper and gold potential of its East Kimberley tenements.

The resource exploration and development activities of the Company are subject to various risks that may impact on the future performance of the Company. The following is a non-exhaustive list of the risks that may have a material effect on the financial position and performance of the Company and the value of its securities, as well as the Company’s exploration, development and any mining activities and an ability to fund those activities.

The specific risks below are some of the risks to the Company of a specific nature by reason of its proposed involvement in the resources industry. The general investment risks below are some of the risks to the Company of a general economic nature.

5.2 Specific risks

Future capital needs and additional funding

The funds raised by the Offer will be used to carry out the Company's objectives as detailed in this Offer Document and the Company’s announcements to ASX. The Company's ability to raise further capital (equity or debt) within an acceptable time, of a sufficient amount and on terms acceptable to the Company will vary according to a number of factors, including prospectivity of projects (existing and future), the results of exploration, feasibility studies, development and mining, stock market and industry conditions and the price of relevant commodities and exchange rates.

No assurance can be given that future funding will be available to the Company on favourable terms (or at all). If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms the Company may not be able to further develop its projects and it may impact on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

This future funding risk will be highlighted if only Minimum Subscription under this Offer (or not much more than Minimum Subscription) is achieved, as exploration on the Company's East Kimberley tenements will be curtailed.

Section 3.2 outlines how the Company intends to use funds upon its projects at Minimum Subscription, as funds are raised up to Full Subscription and at Full Subscription.

Exploration

Investors should understand that resource exploration and development is by its nature a high risk undertaking. There can be no assurance that the Company’s exploration of its tenements (including for copper and gold) or any other exploration projects that may be acquired in the future will result in the discovery of a significant mineral resource. Even if a significant mineral resource is identified, there can be no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.

Development and mining

Possible future development of a mining operation at any of the Company’s projects is dependent on a number of factors including, but not limited to, failure to acquire and/or delineate economically recoverable ore bodies, unfavourable geological conditions, failing to receive the necessary approvals from all relevant authorities and parties, unseasonal weather patterns, unanticipated technical and operational difficulties encountered in extraction and production activities, mechanical failure of operating plant and equipment, unexpected shortages or increases in the price of consumables, spare parts and plant and equipment, cost overruns, risk of access to the required level of funding and contracting risk from any third parties providing essential services.

King River Copper Limited Rights Issue Offer Document

Page 11

In the event that the Company commences production, its operations may be disrupted by a variety of risks and hazards which are beyond its control, including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, technical failures, labour disputes, unusual or unexpected rock formations, flooding and extended interruptions due to inclement or hazardous weather conditions and fires, explosions and other accidents.

Commodity price volatility

The Company is seeking to develop projects which will be reliant on the prices of various commodities including copper and gold.

Commodity prices fluctuate and are affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company. These factors include worldwide and regional supply and demand for commodities, forward selling by producers and production cost levels, general world economic conditions and the outlook for interest rates, inflation and other economic factors on both a regional and global basis. These factors may have a positive or negative effect on the Company's exploration, project development and production plans and activities, together with the ability to fund those plans and activities.

Reliance on key personnel

The Company’s success largely depends on the core competencies of its Directors and any management and their familiarisation with, and ability to operate in, the resource and development industries.

Resource estimations

Resources estimates are expressions of judgment based on knowledge, experience and resource modelling. As such, resource estimates are inherently imprecise and rely to some extent on interpretations made.

Additionally, resource estimates may change over time as new information becomes available. If the Company encounters mineralisation or geological formations different from those predicted by past drilling, sampling and interpretations, resource estimates may need to be altered in a way that could adversely affect the Company’s operations.

Title

All of the tenements or licences in which the Company has or may earn an interest in will be subject to applications for renewal or grant (as the case may be). The renewal or grant of the terms of each tenement or licence is usually at the discretion of the relevant government authority.

Additionally, tenements are subject to a number of State specific legislative conditions including payment of rent and meeting minimum annual expenditure commitments. The inability to meet these conditions could affect the standing of a tenement or restrict its ability to be renewed.

If a tenement or licence expires, is not renewed or granted, the Company may suffer significant damage through loss of the opportunity to develop and discover any mineral resources on that tenement.

Native title and land access

The Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) recognises and protects the rights and interests in Australia of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in land and waters, according to their traditional laws and customs. There is a significant uncertainty associated with native title in Australia and this may impact upon the Company's operations and future plans.

It is important to note that the existence of a native title claim is not an indication that native title in fact exists to the land covered by the claim, as this is a matter ultimately determined by the Federal Court. If native title rights do exist, the ability of the Company to gain access to tenements (through

King River Copper Limited Rights Issue Offer Document

Page 12

obtaining consent of any relevant landowner) or to progress from the exploration phase to the development and mining phases of operations may be adversely affected.

The Company must also comply with Aboriginal heritage legislation requirements which require heritage survey work to be undertaken ahead of the commencement of mining operations.

Environmental

The Company's projects are subject to rules and regulations regarding environmental matters and the discharge of hazardous wastes and materials. As with all mineral projects, the Company’s projects are expected to have a variety of environmental impacts should development proceed. Development of any of the Company's projects will be dependent on the Company satisfying environmental guidelines and, where required, being approved by government authorities.

The Company intends to conduct its activities in an environmentally responsible manner and in accordance with all applicable laws, but may still be subject to accidents or other unforeseen events which may compromise its environmental performance and which may have adverse financial implications.

Potential acquisitions

As part of its business strategy, the Company may make acquisitions of or significant investments in other resource projects or resource companies. Any such transactions would be accompanied by risks commonly encountered in making such acquisitions.

5.3 General investment risks

Securities investments and share market conditions

There are risks associated with any securities investment. The trading prices of securities trade fluctuate in response to a number of factors.

Furthermore, the stock market, and in particular the market for exploration and mining companies may experience extreme price and volume fluctuations that may be unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of such companies. These factors may materially adversely affect the market price of the securities of the Company regardless of the Company's operational performance. Neither the Company nor the Directors warrant the future performance of the Company, or any return of an investment in the Company.

Economic risk

Changes in both Australia and world economic conditions may adversely affect the financial performance of the Company. Factors such as inflation, currency fluctuations, interest rates, industrial disruption and economic growth may impact on future operations and earnings.

Legislative

Changes in relevant taxes, legal and administration regimes, accounting practice and government policies in Australia may adversely affect the financial performance of the Company.

If we reject your Application, we will refund your Application Money in full without interest

If you have any questions about the Rights Issue or how to compete your Entitlement Form, please contact the Company Secretary on +61 8 9221 8055.

6.6 Issue of New Shares and quotation on ASX

New Shares under the Rights Issue will be issued as soon as practicable after the Closing Date. It is expected that New Shares will be allotted and that transaction confirmation statements will be sent to you by 27 November 2015. However, if the Closing Date is extended then the date for allotment and posting may also be extended.

Application for official quotation by ASX of the New Shares offered under this Offer Document has been made. If permission for quotation is not granted by ASX, the New Shares will not be allotted and Application Money will be refunded (without interest) as soon as practicable.

It is your responsibility to confirm your holdings before trading in New Shares. Any person who sells New Shares before receiving confirmation of their holding will do so at their own risk. The Company and the share registry disclaim all responsibility to any person who trades in New Shares before receiving their confirmation statement.

Application Money will be held in trust in a separate bank account on behalf of each Eligible Shareholder until the New Shares are issued. If necessary, Application Money will be refunded as soon as reasonably practicable, without interest. Interest earned on the Application Money will be retained by the Company, regardless of whether New Shares are issued under the Offer.

The Directors may at any time decide to withdraw this Offer Document and the offers made under the Rights Issue, in which case the Company will return all Application Money (without interest) as soon as practicable.

6.7

Excluded Shareholders

The Offer under the Rights Issue is not extended to Excluded Shareholders (any Shareholder whose registered address on the Record Date is situated outside Australia or New Zealand). The Rights Issue does not constitute an offer in any place in which, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to make such an offer.

In making this decision, the Directors have taken into account the small number of Excluded Shareholders and the cost and administrative complexity of complying with applicable regulations in jurisdictions outside Australia and New Zealand.

The New Shares are not being offered or sold to the public within New Zealand other than to existing Shareholders of the Company with registered addresses in New Zealand.

This Offer Document has not been registered, filed with or approved by any New Zealand regulatory authority. This Offer Document is not an investment statement or prospectus under New Zealand law and is not required to, and may not, contain all the information that an investment statement or prospectus under New Zealand law is required to contain.

Eligible Shareholders holding Shares on behalf of persons who are resident outside Australia or New Zealand (including nominees, custodians and trustees) are responsible for ensuring that any dealing with their Entitlement and any New Shares issued do not breach the laws and regulations in the relevant overseas jurisdiction, and should seek independent professional advice and observe any applicable restrictions relating to the taking up of Entitlement or the distribution of this Offer Document or the Entitlement Form.

The making of an Application (whether by the return of a duly completed Entitlement Form or the making of a BPAY payment or otherwise) will constitute a representation that there has been no breach of such laws or regulations. Shareholders who are nominees, custodians or trustees are therefore advised to seek independent advice as to how they should proceed.

6.8 Taxation

There may be taxation implications in relation to the Rights Issue and subscribing for New Shares. These taxation implications vary depending on your individual circumstances. You should seek and rely on your own taxation advice regarding an investment in the Company. Neither the Company nor any of its officers, employees, agents and advisers accepts any liability or responsibility with respect to the taxation consequences connected with the Rights Issue or the New Shares.
