Notice is hereby given that the annual general meeting of Shareholders of Los Cerros Limited (‘ Los Cerros ’ or the ‘ Company ’) will be held at the offices of the Company at Suite 12, Level 1, 11 Ventnor Avenue, West Perth WA 6005, on 23 June 2020 at 1:00pm (WST) ( Meeting ).
In holding the meeting later than 31 May 2020, the Company is relying on the Australian Securities and Investments Commission’s ( ASIC ) public “no-action” position advice that was recently published, under which ASIC advised that it will take no action if a company postpones its AGM (which is usually are required to be held by 31 May 2020) by up to two months to no later than 31 July 2020.
The Board is closely monitoring the rapidly changing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The health of the Company’s Shareholders, employees and other stakeholders is of paramount importance.
The Board recognises that the current pandemic and associated social distancing measures (including travel restrictions and bans on gatherings of certain sizes) may make holding the Meeting in one venue impractical and contrary to Government guidance.
While the Board would like to host all Shareholders in person, there is a risk that legislation or Government directives may prevent the Meeting from being convened in person, or restrict the manner in which the Meeting may be convened. In the event that in the lead up to the Meeting it appears likely that the restrictions on indoor gatherings are ongoing, the Company will provide an update at least 10 business days before the Meeting, on the manner on which it will convene the meeting. The Board encourages Shareholders to monitor the ASX and the Company's website for any updates in relation to the Meeting that may need to be provided.
Article 12.7 of the Company's Constitution permits a meeting of members to be held in 2 or more places linked together by technology. The Company is currently considering options, including conducting the meeting using Zoom video conferencing or other digital meeting service providers and will advise Shareholders at least 10 business days prior to the Meeting of any contingency plans.
If you are unable to attend the Meeting to vote in person or may have difficulties accessing the potential video or teleconference, the Board encourages you to complete the enclosed Proxy Form and return it by mail or fax in accordance with the instructions provided as soon as possible. Alternatively, you can lodge your votes online via the share registry’s website at www.linkmarketservices.com.au.

Shareholders should read the Notice including the Explanatory Memorandum carefully before deciding how to vote on the Resolutions.
2.1
Voting in person
To vote in person, attend the Meeting on the date and at the place set out above, subject to further notice from the Company.
The Board is closely monitoring the rapidly changing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The health of the Company’s Shareholders, employees and other stakeholders is of paramount importance.
The Board recognises that the current pandemic and associated social distancing measures (including travel restrictions and bans on gatherings of certain sizes) has made holding the Meeting in one venue impractical and contrary to Government guidance.
While the Board would like to host all Shareholders in person, there is a risk that legislation or Government directives may prevent the Meeting from being convened in person, or restrict the manner in which the Meeting may be convened. In the event that in the lead up to the Meeting it appears likely that the restrictions on indoor gatherings are ongoing, the Company will provide an update at least 10 business days before the Meeting, on the manner on which it will convene the meeting. The Board encourages Shareholders to monitor the ASX and the Company's website for any updates in relation to the Meeting that may need to be provided.
Article 12.7 of the Company's Constitution permits a meeting of members to be held in 2 or more places linked together by technology. The Company is currently considering options, including conducting the meeting using Zoom Video conferencing online or other digital meeting service providers and will advise Shareholders on or before at least 10 business days prior to the Meeting of any contingency plans.

Alternatively, you can lodge your votes online via the share registry’s website at www.linkmarketservices.com.au.
2.2 Proxies
(a) Voting by proxy
A Proxy Form is attached to the Notice. This is to be used by Shareholders if they wish to appoint a representative (a 'proxy') to vote in their place. All Shareholders are invited and encouraged to attend the Meeting or, if they are unable to attend in person, sign and return the Proxy Form to the Company in accordance with the
Page 11
instructions thereon. Lodgement of a Proxy Form will not preclude a Shareholder from attending and voting at the Meeting in person.
Please note that:
-
(i) a member of the Company entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy;
-
(ii) a proxy need not be a member of the Company; and
-
(iii) a member of the Company entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint two proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise, but where the proportion or number is not specified, each proxy may exercise half of the votes.
The enclosed Proxy Form provides further details on appointing proxies and lodging Proxy Forms.
(b) Proxy vote if appointment specifies way to vote
Section 250BB(1) of the Corporations Act provides that an appointment of a proxy may specify the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution and, if it does:
-
(i) the proxy need not vote on a show of hands, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed);
-
(ii) if the proxy has two or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on the resolution – the proxy must not vote on a show of hands;
-
(iii) if the proxy is the chair of the meeting at which the resolution is voted on – the proxy must vote on a poll, and must vote that way (i.e. as directed); and
-
(iv) if the proxy is not the chair – the proxy need not vote on the poll, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed).
-
(b) Transfer of non-chair proxy to chair in certain circumstances
Section 250BC of the Corporations Act provides that, if:
-
(i) an appointment of a proxy specifies the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution at a meeting of the Company's members;
-
(ii) the appointed proxy is not the chair of the meeting;
-
(iii) at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded on the resolution; and
-
(iv) either the proxy is not recorded as attending the meeting or the proxy does not vote on the resolution,
the chair of the meeting is taken, before voting on the resolution closes, to have been appointed as the proxy for the purposes of voting on the resolution at the meeting.
(c) Voting Prohibition by Proxy Holders (Remuneration of Key Management Personnel)
Page 12
In accordance with sections 250BD and 250R of the Corporations Act, votes on Resolution 1 must not be cast (in any capacity) by, or on behalf of:
-
(a) a member of the Key Management Personnel; or
-
(b) a Closely Related Party of such member.
However, a person described above may cast votes on Resolution 1 if the vote is not cast on behalf of a person who is excluded from voting on the relevant Resolution and:
-
(c) the person is appointed as proxy by writing that specifies the way the proxy is to vote on the Resolution; or
-
(d) the person is the Chair and the appointment of the Chair as proxy does not specify the way the proxy is to vote on the resolution, but expressly authorises the Chair to exercise the proxy even if the Resolution is connected with the remuneration of a member of the Key Management Personnel.
-
2.3
Chair's voting intentions
The Chair intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of all Resolutions unless the Shareholder has expressly indicated a different voting intention.
If the Chair is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chair is to vote on Resolution 1 by signing and returning the Proxy Form, you are considered to have provided the Chair with an express authorisation for the Chair to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chair's intention, even though the Resolution 1 is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the Key Management Personnel of the Company.
2.4
Remote attendance via teleconference
If the Company determines that it is necessary for the Meeting to be accessible to all Shareholders via a teleconference, it will provide an update no later than 10 business days before the Meeting.
In such circumstances, the Company will provide the Shareholders who wish to participate in the Meeting remotely with the required details to join the teleconference, which will allow the Shareholders to listen and observe the Meeting.
Shareholders should note that the teleconference (if used) will not provide for a voting mechanism during the Meeting.
3. Annual Report
In accordance with section 317 of the Corporations Act, Shareholders will be offered the opportunity to discuss the Annual Report, including the Financial Report, the Directors' Report and the Auditor's Report for the financial year ended 31 December 2019.
There is no requirement for Shareholders to approve the Annual Report.
At the Meeting, Shareholders will be offered the opportunity to:
- (a) discuss the Annual Report which is available online at https://www.loscerros.com.au/site/news/Annual-Reports-Archive
Page 13
-
(b) ask questions about, or comment on, the management of the Company; and
-
(c) ask the auditor questions about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the Auditor's Report.
4. Resolution 1 – Remuneration Report
4.1
Consider Accounts and Reports
The Remuneration Report for the financial year ended 31 December 2019 is set out in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report. By way of summary, the Remuneration Report sets out the Company’s remuneration policies and sets out remuneration details for each Director and other Key Management Personnel of the Company.
Shareholders attending the Meeting will be given a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report.
Under the Corporations Act, a listed entity is required to put to the vote a resolution that the Remuneration Report be adopted. The vote on this resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. However, if at least 25% of the votes cast on Resolution 1 are cast against the adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive annual general meetings, then a ‘board spill resolution’ must be put to the Shareholders proposing the calling of a Shareholder meeting to consider the appointment of Directors.
If a board spill resolution is passed by the Shareholders, the Company is required to hold a further meeting of Shareholders within 90 days to consider replacing those Directors (other than the Executive Chairman of the Company) in office at the time the Remuneration Report was approved by the Board.
Less than 25% of votes cast at the last Annual General Meeting of the Company were cast against the resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report for the year ended 31 December 2018.
Resolution 1 is an ordinary resolution.
5. Resolution 2 – Re-election of Ross Ashton as a Director
5.1
General
Pursuant to clause 15.6(a) of the Constitution, the directors may at any time appoint a person to be a director, either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing Directors. Any Director so appointed holds office only until the following general meeting and is then eligible for re-election in accordance with clause 15.6(b) of the Constitution. Listing Rule 14.4 also states that director appointed to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the board must not hold office (without re-election) past the next annual general meeting of the Company.
Mr Ashton was appointed to the Board on 16 August 2019 as part of Los Cerros merger with Andes Resources where he also held the role of Chairman.
If elected, the Board considers Mr Ashton to be a non-independent director.
Resolution 2 is an ordinary resolution.
Page 14
The Board, other than Mr Ashton, recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2 for the following reasons:
-
(a) Mr Ashton has a wealth of experience and expertise that is valuable to the Company; and
-
(b) All Directors (excluding Mr Ashton) consider it is in the best interests of the Company.
5.2 Bio of Mr Ashton
Mr Ashton was appointed to the Board on 16 August 2019 as part of Los Cerros merger with Andes Resources where he also held the role of Chairman. Mr Ashton has over 45 years’ experience as a geologist specialising in mineral exploration and resource development internationally. He was founder of Red Back Mining Limited, a company subsequently acquired by Kinross Gold Corporation for US$7.2 billion in 2010. He was also a director of TSX/ASX listed PMI Gold Ltd and ASX listed Brockman Resources Ltd. Both companies were involved in corporate transactions following the discovery of significant mineral resources.
6. Resolution 3 – Approval of 10% Placement Facility
6.1 General
Listing Rule 7.1A enables eligible entities to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued share capital through placements over a 12 month period after the annual general meeting ( 10% Placement Facility ). The 10% Placement Facility is in addition to the Company's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
An eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. Based on the ASX closing price on 29 April 2020 ($0.037 per Share the Company has a market capitalisation of approximately $8.6 million. The Company is an eligible entity.
The Company is now seeking Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to have the ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility. The number of Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Facility will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to Section 6.2(c) below).
The Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.
Resolution 3 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative).
6.2 Listing Rule 7.1A
(a) Shareholder approval
The ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility is subject to Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution at an annual general meeting.
(b) Equity Securities
Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility must be in the same class as an existing quoted class of Equity Securities of the company.
The Company, as at the date of the Notice, has on issue one quoted class of Equity Securities; Shares.
Page 15
(c) Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility
Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that eligible entities which have obtained shareholder approval at an annual general meeting may issue or agree to issue during the 12 month period after the date of the annual general meeting, a number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:
(A x D) – E

(e)

-
(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 trading days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

-
(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 10 trading days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
(h) Risk of economic and voting dilution
If this Resolution is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility, the existing Shareholders' voting power in the Company will be diluted as shown in the below tables (in the case of Options, only if the Options are converted into Shares). There is a risk that:
Page 17
-
(i) the market price for the Company's Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than on the date of the Meeting; and
-
(ii) the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for the Company's Equity Securities on the issue date or the Equity Securities are issued as part of consideration for the acquisition of a new asset,
which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the Equity Securities.
The below table shows :
-
(iii) the dilution of existing Shareholders on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of ordinary securities for variable "A" calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 as at the date of the Notice;
-
(iv) two examples where variable "A" has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable "A" is based on the number of ordinary securities the Company has on issue. ; and
-
(v) two examples of where the issue price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.

- The number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a pro rata rights issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:
Page 18
-
The Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility.
-
No convertible Securities (including any issued under the 10% Placement Facility) are exercised or converted into Shares before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities.
-
The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.
-
The tables do not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Facility, based on that Shareholder's holding at the date of the Meeting.
-
The tables show only the effect of issues of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
-
The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares. If the issue of Equity Securities includes Options, it is assumed that those Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.
-
The issue price is $0.037 being the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 29 April 2020.
-
Variable A is equal to the number of existing Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice, being 233,165,213 , assuming the Company has not issued any Shares in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 or with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.4.
(i) Final date for issue
The Company will only issue the Equity Securities during the 10% Placement Period.
An approval under Listing Rule 7.1A commences on the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained and expires on the first to occur of the following:
-
(i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained;
-
(ii) the time and date of the entity’s next annual general meeting; and
-
(iii) the time and date of the approval by holders of the eligible entity’s ordinary securities of a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 or rule 11.2.
(j) Purposes of issues under 10% Placement Facility
The Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for cash consideration, in which case the Company intends to use funds raised for the acquisition of new assets or investments (including expenses associated with such acquisition), continued exploration and scoping and feasibility study expenditure on the Company's current assets and/or general working capital.:
The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A.4 and 3.10.5A upon issue of any Equity Securities.
Page 19
(k) Allocation policy
The Company's allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Facility. The identity of the allottees of Equity Securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factors including but not limited to the following:
-
(i) the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company, including but not limited to, rights issue or other issue in which existing security holders can participate;
-
(ii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;
-
(iii) financial situation and solvency of the Company; and
-
(iv) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).
The allottees under the 10% Placement Facility have not been determined as at the date of the Notice but may include existing substantial Shareholders and/or new Shareholders who are not a related party or an associate of a related party of the Company.
Further, if the Company is successful in acquiring new projects, assets or investments, it is possible that the allottees under the 10% Placement Facility will be the vendors of the new projects, assets or investments.
(l) Issues in the past 12 months
The Company has previously obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 17 May 2019. However, the additional placement capacity ceased to be available following the approval of a resolution pursuant to Listing Rule 11.1.2 at the Extraordinary General Meeting held on 15 July 2019.
In the 12 months preceding the date of the Meeting and as at the date of this Notice, the Company has issued 325,226,561 Equity Securities. This represents 711% of the total number of Equity Securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.
Details of each issue of Equity Securities by the Company during the 12 months preceding the date of the Meeting are set out in Schedule 2.
(m) Voting exclusion statement
A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.
At the date of the Notice, the Company has not approached any particular existing Shareholder or security holder or an identifiable class of existing security holder to participate in the issue of the Equity Securities. No existing Shareholder's votes will therefore be excluded under the voting exclusion in the Notice.

On 5 February 2020, the Company announced that it had received binding commitments for a placement to raise a total of $2,100,000 (before costs) ( Placement ) by the issue of a total of 52,500,000 Shares at $0.04 each ( Placement Shares ) to sophisticated and professional investors ( Placement Participants ).It was noted that the subject to shareholder approval (which was subsequently received on 30 March 2020) the Directors would also subscribe for up to 3,125,000 to raise up to $125,000 under the Placement.
Funds raised under the Placement are to be used developing the Company's Quinchia project and general working capital.
Hartleys Limited acted as lead manager to the Placement.
The Placement comprised of two tranches as follows:
-
(a) on 13 February 2020, the Company issued 14,814,860 Placement Shares and on 18 February 2020, the Company issued a further 10,125,000 Placement Shares, totalling 24,939,860 Placement Shares, to the Placement Participants using the Company's placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 ( Tranche 1 Placement Shares ); and

Tranche 2 Placement Shares were approved by Shareholders at the General Meeting held on 30 March 2020.
The Placement Participants also received one free attaching option for every two shares subscribed in the Placement ( Placement Options ). On 30 March 2020 shareholders approved the issue of the free attaching options and were subsequently issued on 6 April 2020. The free attaching options have an exercise price of $0.10 per option and expire on 6 April 2022.

The issue of up to 26,562,500 Additional Placement Options have an exercise price of $0.02 each and expiry date of two years from the date of issue.

Resolution 4 is an ordinary resolution.
The Board (other than Mr Ross Ashton, who has a material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolutions) recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4.
7.2 Listing Rule 10.11
Page 21
In accordance with Listing Rule 10.11, the Company must not issue securities to a related party of the Company unless it obtains Shareholder approval. Mr Ashton is a related party of the Company by virtue of his position as Director. As his participation in the Placement involves the issue of Securities to a related party of the Company, Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11 is required unless an exception applies. It is the view of the Directors that the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply in the current circumstances.
Approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required as approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of Additional Placement Options to Mr Ashton (or his nominee) will not be included in the use of the Company's 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.
Resolution 4 seeks the required Shareholder approval to the issue of up to 937,500 Additional Placement Options to Mr Ross Ashton (or his nominee) under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.
If Resolution 4 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Additional Placement Options to Mr Ashton and will issue the Securities to Mr Ashton no later than one month after the date of the Meeting.
If Resolution 4 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Additional Placement Options to Mr Ashton until such time as further Shareholder approval is obtained.

-
(b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,

The issue of the Additional Placement Options to Mr Ashton constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mr Ashton is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director.
The Board considers that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the issue of the Additional Placement Options to Mr Ashton because the Securities will be issued to Mr Ashton on the same terms as Securities issued to non-related party participants in the Placement and as such the giving of the financial benefit is on arm's length terms (the exception in section 210 of the Corporations Act applies).

Page 23
Approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required as approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of Additional Placement Options to Mr Wilson (or his nominee) will not be included in the use of the Company's 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolution 5 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Additional Placement Options to Mr Wilson and will issue the Securities to Mr Wilson no later than one month after the date of the Meeting.

9. Resolution 6 – Ratification of issue of Additional Placement Options
9.1
General
As detailed in Section 7.1 above, on 3 April 2020 the Company announced a Company Update and COVID-19 Response to the Market. In this announcement, the Company acknowledged the rapid and unexpected deterioration in global equity markets, due largely to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the resultant negative impact this has had on the Los Cerros share price.

The Additional Placement Options are expected to be issued prior to the convening of this Meeting.

Listing Rule 7.4 provides that if the Company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 or Listing Rule 7.1A (and provided that the previous issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1) those securities will be deemed to have been made with Shareholder approval for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.1 or Listing Rule 7.1A.

Approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required as approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of Securities to Mr Stirbinskis (or his nominees) will not be included in the use of the Company's 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolution 8 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Securities to Mr Stirbinskis and will issue the Securities to Mr Stirbinskis no later than one month after the date of the Meeting.
If Resolution 8 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Securities to Mr Stirbinskis until such time as further Shareholder approval is obtained.
11.3
Specific 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 proposed issue of Securities to Mr Stirbinskis arising from his participation in the SPP:
-
(a) up to 225,000 Additional SPP Options will be issued to Mr Jason Stirbinskis (or his nominees);
-
(b) Mr Jason Stirbinskis is a director of the Company and as such falls within the category stipulated under Listing Rule 10.11.1;
-
(c) the Additional SPP Options will be exercisable at $0.02 each on or before the date that is two years from the date of issue and will otherwise be on the terms and conditions set out in Schedule 2;
-
(d) the Additional SPP Options will be issued for nil cash consideration as freeattaching Options on the basis of one Additional SPP Option for every two SPP Shares subscribed for under the SPP, and as such no funds will be raised from their issue;
Page 28
-
(e) the Additional SPP Options will be issued to Mr Stirbinskis (or his nominee) no later than one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules);
-
(f) the Additional SPP Options are not intended to remunerate or incentivise Mr Stirbinskis;
-
(g) the Additional SPP Options are not being issued to Mr Stirbinskis under an agreement; and
-
(h) a voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.
11.4 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act
A summary of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is provided above in Section 7.4.
The issue of the Additional SPP Options to Mr Stirbinskis constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mr Stirbinskis is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director.
The Board considers that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the issue of the Additional SPP Options to Mr Stirbinskis' because the Additional SPP Options will be issued to Mr Stirbinskis on the same terms as the Additional SPP Options issued to non-related party participants in the SPP and as such the giving of the financial benefit is on arm's length terms (s.210 exception in the Corporations Act).
12. Resolution 9 (a) and (b) – Approval of issue of Securities to AngloGold
12.1 General
On 30 April 2020, the Company announced that it had entered into a binding term sheet with AngloGold Ashanti Colombia S.A. ( AngloGold ). Subject to shareholder approval and entry into a formal sale and purchase agreement, the Company has agreed to issue AngloGold (or its nominees) 10,476,597 Shares ( AngloGold Shares ) and 15,430,648 Options ( AngloGold Options ) in consideration for AngloGold's interests' in the Chuscal joint venture. Subject to completion, the Company will hold 100% of the entire Quinchia Project of which Chuscal is a part.
Resolutions 9(a) and 9(b) seeks the approval of Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of the AngloGold Shares and AngloGold Options to AngloGold (or its nominees).
Resolutions 9(a) and 9(b) are ordinary resolutions.
Page 29
The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolutions 9(a) and 9(b).
12.2 Listing Rules 7.1
A summary of listing rule 7.1 is provided above in section 9.2.
The issue of the AngloGold Shares and AngloGold Options does not fall within any of the exception to Listing Rule 7.1 and exceeds the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.
Resolutions 9(a) and 9(b) seeks the required Shareholder approval to the issue of the AngloGold Shares and AngloGold Options under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolutions 9(a) and 9(b) are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the AngloGold Shares and AngloGold Options and will issue the AngloGold Shares no later than three months after the date of the Meeting.
If either of Resolutions 9(a) and 9(b) are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the AngloGold Shares and AngloGold Options until such time as further Shareholder approval is obtained or such issuance can be made pursuant to the Company's existing placement capacity under Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.1A. This will mean that the Company is unable to complete the AngloGold Agreement, will not be able to acquire a 100% ownership interest in Chuscal, and will remain subject to the terms of the Chuscal Joint Venture Agreement ( CJVA ).
12.3
AngloGold Agreement
On 30 April 2020, AngloGold and the Company (and their relevant subsidiaries) entered into a binding term sheet agreement for the exchange of AngloGold's interests in the Chuscal JV Agreement (CJVA) for Shares. The material terms of the AngloGold Agreement are as follows:
-
(a) The CJVA is to be terminated along with associated obligations such as minimum spend requirements.
-
(b) Consideration:
-
(i) the issue of 10,476,597 Shares; and
-
(ii) the issue of 15,430,648, Options,
to AngloGold.
In addition to usual warranties and conditions, the AngloGold Agreement is conditional upon AngloGold receiving the approval of the South African Reserve Bank on terms acceptable to AngloGold, Shareholder approval (the subject of this Resolution), entry of the parties into a formal sale and purchase agreement and the Company completing due diligence.
12.4
Specific 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 proposed issue of the AngloGold Shares and AngloGold Options:
- (a) the AngloGold Shares and AngloGold Options will be issued to AngloGold pursuant to the Agreement;
Page 30
-
(b) up to 10,476,597 AngloGold Shares and 15,430,648 AngloGold Options will be issued to AngloGold;
-
(c) the AngloGold Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company and rank equally in all respects with the Company's existing Shares on issue;
-
(d) The AngloGold Options have an exercise price of $0.16 and an expiry date of 12 months after the date of issue and are otherwise on the terms and conditions set out in Schedule 4.
-
(e) the AngloGold Shares and AngloGold Options will be issued no later than three months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules);
-
(f) the AngloGold Shares were issued for nil cash consideration each as consideration under the AngloGold Agreement and therefore nil funds will be raised;
-
(g) the AngloGold Shares and AngloGold Options are issued for the purpose of complying with the AngloGold Agreement and are consideration for the Company's acquisition of AngloGold's interests in the CJVA;
-
(h) the AngloGold Shares and AngloGold Options will be issued under the terms and conditions of the Agreement described in the ASX announcement dated 30 April 2020. The material terms of this Agreement are summarised above in Section 12.3; and
-
(i) a voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.
13. Resolution 10 – Replacement of Constitution
13.1 General
Under section 136(2) of the Corporations Act, a company may modify or repeal its constitution or a provision of its constitution by special resolution of Shareholders.
Resolution 9 seeks the approval of Shareholders to repeal the Company's existing Constitution and adopt a new constitution ( Proposed Constitution ) which is of the type required for a listed public company limited by shares.
The Proposed Constitution incorporates amendments to the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules since the current Constitution was adopted on 14 September 2018. The Directors believe that it is preferable in the circumstances to replace the existing Constitution with the Proposed Constitution rather than to amend a multitude of specific provisions.
The Proposed Constitution is broadly consistent with the provisions of the existing Constitution. Many of the proposed changes are administrative or minor in nature including but not limited to expressly providing for statutory rights by mirroring these rights in provisions of the Proposed Constitution.
The Directors believe these amendments are not material nor will they have any significant impact on Shareholders. It is not practicable to list all of the changes to the Constitution in detail in this Explanatory Memorandum, however, a summary of the proposed material changes is set out below.
Page 31
A copy of the Proposed Constitution is available for review by Shareholders at the office of the Company. A copy of the Proposed Constitution can also be sent to Shareholders upon request to the Company Secretary.
Shareholders are invited to contact the Company if they have any queries or concerns.
Resolution 10 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative).
The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 9.
13.2 Summary of material proposed changes
(n) Restricted Securities (article 2.7)
ASX is proposing to introduce a number of changes to the escrow regime in the Listing Rules in December 2019 to make aspects of the listing process and ongoing compliance with the Listing Rules more efficient for issuers and for ASX.
Amongst these, ASX is proposing to introduce a two-tier escrow regime where ASX can and will require certain more significant holders of Restricted Securities (as defined by the Listing Rules) and their controllers to execute a formal escrow agreement in the form of Appendix 9A, as is currently the case. However, for less significant holdings, ASX will instead permit entities to rely on a provision in their constitution imposing appropriate escrow restrictions on the holder of Restricted Securities and to simply give a notice to the holder of Restricted Securities in the form of a new Appendix 9C advising them of those restrictions.
Under article 2.7 of the Proposed Constitution, holders of Restricted Securities will be taken to have agreed in writing that those Securities are to be kept on the Company's issuer sponsored sub-register and are to have a holding lock applied for the duration of the applicable escrow period. Holders of Restricted Securities will also not be entitled to participate in any return of capital on those Securities during the applicable escrow period, except as permitted by the Listing Rules or ASX.
(o) Deemed notice to uncontactable Shareholders (article 14.5)
Article 14.5 provides that a document will be deemed to have been served to a Shareholder if the document is exhibited in the registered office of the Company for 48 hours in the event that:
-
(i) a Shareholder does not have an address in the register of Shareholders, and has not nominated an alternative address; or
-
(ii) the Company reasonable believes that a Shareholder is not known at the Shareholder's address in the register of Shareholders or any alterative address provided.
(p) Partial (proportional) takeover provisions (article 4.9 and schedule 5)
A proportional takeover bid is a takeover bid where the offer made to each shareholder is only for a proportion of that shareholder's shares.
Pursuant to section 648G of the Corporations Act, the Company has included in the Proposed Constitution a provision whereby a proportional takeover bid for Shares may only proceed after the bid has been approved by a meeting of Shareholders held in accordance with the terms set out in the Corporations Act.
Page 32
This clause of the Proposed Constitution will cease to have effect on the third anniversary of the date of the adoption of last renewal of the clause.
While the original Constitution included a provision regarding proportional takeover bids, this provision would otherwise cease to have effect in 2020.
13.3 Information required by section 648G of the Corporations Act
(q) Effect of proposed proportional takeover provisions
Where offers have been made under a proportional off-market bid in respect of a class of securities in a company, the registration of a transfer giving effect to a contract resulting from the acceptance of an offer made under such a proportional off-market bid is prohibited unless and until a resolution to approve the proportional off-market bid is passed.
(r) Reasons for proportional takeover provisions
A proportional takeover bid may result in control of the Company changing without Shareholders having the opportunity to dispose of all their Shares. By making a partial bid, a bidder can obtain practical control of the Company by acquiring less than a majority interest. Shareholders are exposed to the risk of being left as a minority in the Company and the risk of the bidder being able to acquire control of the Company without payment of an adequate control premium. These amended provisions allow Shareholders to decide whether a proportional takeover bid is acceptable in principle, and assist in ensuring that any partial bid is appropriately priced.
(s) Knowledge of any acquisition proposals
As at the date of this Notice, no Director is aware of any proposal by any person to acquire, or to increase the extent of, a substantial interest in the Company.
(t) Potential advantages and disadvantages of proportional takeover provisions
The Directors consider that the proportional takeover provisions have no potential advantages or disadvantages for them and that they remain free to make a recommendation on whether an offer under a proportional takeover bid should be accepted.
The potential advantages of the proportional takeover provisions for Shareholders include:
-
(i) the right to decide by majority vote whether an offer under a proportional takeover bid should proceed;
-
(ii) assisting in preventing Shareholders from being locked in as a minority;
-
(iii) increasing the bargaining power of Shareholders which may assist in ensuring that any proportional takeover bid is adequately priced; and
-
(iv) each individual Shareholder may better assess the likely outcome of the proportional takeover bid by knowing the view of the majority of Shareholders which may assist in deciding whether to accept or reject an offer under the takeover bid.
The potential disadvantages of the proportional takeover provisions for Shareholders include:
- (i) proportional takeover bids may be discouraged;
Page 33
-
(ii) lost opportunity to sell a portion of their Shares at a premium; and
-
(iii) the likelihood of a proportional takeover bid succeeding may be reduced.
(u) Recommendation of the Board
The Directors do not believe the potential disadvantages outweigh the potential advantages of adopting the proportional takeover provisions and as a result consider that the proportional takeover provision in the Proposed Constitution is in the interest of Shareholders and unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 9.
