EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for Shareholders in connection with the business to be conducted at a General Meeting of the Company to be held the offices of Lefroy Exploration Limited, Level 3, 7 Rheola Street, West Perth, WA, Australia on Monday, 30 January 2023 commencing at 11.00am (WST).

1. RESOLUTION 1 – RATIFICATION OF PLACEMENT SHARES

1.1 General

On 13 December 2022, the Company announced a $3.5 million placement comprising the issue of 14,583,334 Shares at an issue price of $0.24 per Share ( Placement ). Lefroy Directors committed to subscribe for a total of 1,416,668 Shares at the Placement issue price of $0.24 per Share to raise $340,000.32. The issue of 208,334 Shares to Mr Galt (or nominee), 1,041,667 Shares to Mr Davies (or nominee), 125,000 Shares to Ms French (or nominee) and 41,667 Shares to Mr Johnson (or nominee) is subject to Shareholder approval in Resolutions 2 to 5 below. The Placement was taken up by new professional and sophisticated investors as well as existing Shareholders. Bridge Street Capital Partners acted as Sole Lead Manager and Bookrunner for the Placement.

The proceeds of the Placement will be used to advance exploration at the Company’s 100% owned Eastern Lefroy Gold Project and for general working capital purposes. The principal and continued focus of the Company is at the exciting Burns copper (Cu) gold (Au) system. The results from this program will support the delivery of a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) in March 2023. The funds will also enable the Company to undertake further early-stage exploration drill programs at emerging prospects such as Coogee South, Hang Glider Hill and Havelock.

The Company issued 13,166,666 Placement Shares on 21 December 2022. Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder approval to the ratification for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of 13,166,666 Shares issued pursuant to the Company’s existing Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity.

1.2 Background to Listing Rule 7.1

The Company issued 13,166,666 Shares utilising the Company’s existing Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity. Listing Rule 7.1 places a general limitation on the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that period. The 13,166,666 Shares were issued within the Company’s 15% limit under Listing Rule 7.1.

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made, provided the Company complied with Listing Rule 7.1 at the time of issuing the relevant equity securities. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under that rule.

If Resolution 1 is approved, the 13,166,666 Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of equity securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following their issue.

If Resolution 1 is not approved by the requisite majority, the 13,166,666 Shares will be included in

calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following their issue.

1.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.5

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 1 and the ratification of the issue of the 13,166,666 Shares issued pursuant to the Company’s existing Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity:

  • The 13,166,666 Shares were issued to new and existing professional and sophisticated investors determined by Bridge Street Capital Partners in consultation with the Board. The subscribers were not related parties of the Company at the time of the issue of the Shares.

  • The 13,166,666 Shares were issued on 21 December 2022.

  • The 13,166,666 Shares are fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares. The Shares will rank equally in all respects with the existing Shares on issue.

  • The issue price of the Shares was $0.24 per Share.

  • Funds raised from the issue will be used to will be used to advance exploration at the Company’s 100% owned Eastern Lefroy Gold Project and for general working capital purposes.

  • A voting exclusion statement is included in Resolution 1 of the Notice.

1.4 Directors’ recommendation

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Therefore, the Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.

2. RESOLUTIONS 2 TO 5 - APPROVAL OF ISSUE OF SHARES VIA PLACEMENT TO MR GORDON GALT (OR HIS NOMINEE), MR MICHAEL DAVIES (OR NOMINEE), MS TARA FRENCH (OR NOMINEE) AND MR WADE JOHNSON (OR NOMINEE)
