1. Background to the Resolutions

1.1 Placement

On 6 August 2018, the Company announced a placement of 100,000,000 Shares to sophisticated and professional investors at an issue price of $0.015 per Share to raise approximately $1,500,000 (before costs), with 1 Option (exercisable at $0.02 on or before 31 December 2020) to be issued for every Share subscribed for and issued ( Placement ). The Placement will be completed in two tranches (being the Tranche 1 Placement and the Tranche 2 Placement ).

The Company completed the Tranche 1 Placement by issuing a total of 60,000,000 Shares ( Tranche 1 Placement Shares ) on 14 August 2018 to raise a total of $900,000 (before costs). 33,218,788 Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and 26,781,212 Tranche 1 Placement Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A which was approved by Shareholders at the annual general meeting held on 27 November 2017.

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of the Placement’s remaining 40,000,000 Shares ( Tranche 2 Placement Shares ) and 100,000,000 Options ( Placement Options ) as the Company does not have sufficient placement capacity to issue these without shareholder approval.

The Company has engaged Australasian Capital Pty Limited (ACN 143 093 832; AFSL 384503) ( Adviser ) to manage the Placement. The Company has agreed to issue 10,000,000 Options ( Adviser Options ) to the Adviser which comprises part of their fee for its role in procuring investment under the Placement (refer to Resolution 4).

The Company intends to apply the funds raised from the Placement as follows:

Expenditure on the development of the Company’s Lushoto Bauxite Project $460,000
Costs in connection with the Transaction, including due diligence costs and
payment of an exclusivity fee under the Option Agreement
$200,000
Costs of the Placement $90,000
Working capital $250,000

Note : The above table is a statement of current intentions as at the date of this Notice. Shareholders should note that, as with any budget, the allocation of funds set out in the above table may change depending on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the outcome of operational and development activities, as well as regulatory developments and economic conditions. In light of this, the Company reserves the right to alter the way the funds are applied.

In the event any Facilitation Shares or Facilitation Options are not issued within 3 months of the date of the Meeting (or a longer period, if allowed by ASX) the Company intends to seek further Shareholder approval at an appropriate time in the future before they are issued.

2. Resolutions 1 and 2 – Ratification of Prior Issue of Tranche 1 Placement Shares under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A

2.1 Resolution 1 – ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1) those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

By ratifying the issue the subject of Resolution 1, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

6

2.2 Resolution 2 – ASX Listing Rules 7.1A and 7.4

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that in addition to issues permitted without prior shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, an entity that is eligible and obtains shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A may issue or agree to issue during the period for which the approval is valid a number of quoted equity securities which represents 10% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period as adjusted in accordance with the formula in ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

Where an eligible entity obtains shareholder approval to increase its placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A then any ordinary securities issued under that additional placement capacity:

  • (a) will not be counted in variable “A” in the formula in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A; and

  • (b) are counted in variable “E”,

until their issue has been ratified under ASX Listing Rule 7.4 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1A) or 12 months has passed since their issue.

By ratifying the issue the subject of Resolution 2, the base figure (i.e. variable “A”) in which the Company’s 15% and 10% annual placement capacities are calculated will be a higher number which in turn will allow a proportionately higher number of securities to be issued without prior Shareholder approval.
