Explanatory Statement

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of Shareholders in connection with the business to be conducted at the Annual General Meeting to be held on Wednesday 29 November 2017 (the Meeting). It should be read in conjunction with the Notice of Annual General Meeting (the Notice).

For those Shareholders who have elected not to receive a hard copy of the Annual Report, it can be accessed on the Company’s website at www.trakaresources.com.au

The following matters should be noted in respect of the agenda items in the Notice:

1 Financial Report, Directors’ Report and Auditor’s Report

The Financial Report, Directors’ Report and Auditor’s Report for the year ended 30 June 2017, as set out in the 2017 Annual Report, are presented for consideration at the Meeting.

Shareholders will be given a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, these reports and on the management of the Company. Shareholders will also be given reasonable opportunity to ask questions of the Company’s external auditor with respect to the conduct of the audit, the preparation and content of the auditor’s report, the independence of the auditor in relation to the conduct of the audit and the accounting policies adopted by the company in preparation of the financial statements.

2 Resolution 1: Remuneration Report

The Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2017 contains the Remuneration Report, which sets out the Company’s policy for the remuneration of the directors and certain of its executives.

The Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (Corporations Act) requires that a resolution be put to Shareholders that the Remuneration Report be adopted, but expressly provides that the vote is advisory only and does not bind the directors or the Company.

The Act further provides shareholders with the opportunity to remove the directors from office if 25% or more of the votes are cast against adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive annual general meetings (Two Strikes Rule).

Under the Two Strikes Rule, where 25% or more of the votes are cast against adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company is required to put an ordinary resolution (Spill Resolution) to the second such meeting as to whether another general meeting should be held within 90 days at which all directors, other than the Managing Director, who were in office at the date of the vote on adoption of the applicable Remuneration Report must stand for re-election.

Since the Remuneration Report put to the previous annual general meeting of the Company was adopted by a majority of more than 75% of votes, there is no requirement to put a Spill Resolution to this Annual General Meeting.

Shareholders will be given reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report.

3 Resolution 2: Re-election of Mr George Petersons as a director

Mr George Petersons will retire by rotation at the Annual General Meeting in accordance with Clause 11.3 of the Company’s Constitution and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election.

Mr Petersons has been a director of the Company since its formation.

Details of the qualifications and experience of Mr Petersons are set out in the 2017 Annual Report for the Company.

The directors (other than Mr Petersons) recommend the re-election of Mr Petersons.
