EXPLANATORY STATEMEN T
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.
1 RESOLUTIONS 1 TO 3 – ISSUE OF SECURITIES TO DIRECTORS
1.1 General
On 29 April 2020, the Company announced the results of its Non-Renounceable Entitlement Issue (announced to the market on 13 February 2020). In summary, the Company received applications for $80,926 worth of Shares at $0.01 per Share, meaning a shortfall of $877,851 worth of Shares at $0.01 per Share was available to be placed at the discretion of the Board by 24 July 2020 ( Shortfall ).
The terms of the Non-Renounceable Entitlements Issue also included free attaching unlisted Options exercisable at $0.04 within 30 months from issue on the basis of 1 Option for every 4 Shares subscribed for. Accordingly, up to 21,946,262 free attaching unlisted Options were available to be placed as part of the Shortfall.
On 17 July 2020, the Company announced that the Shortfall would not be placed due to the recent trading price of the Company’s Shares, the costs and dilution effect of placing the entire Shortfall and prevailing market conditions. In lieu of placing the Shortfall, the Board is proposing subject to Shareholder approval to undertake a smaller placement to directors of a total of 26,666,667 Shares at an issue price of $0.012 each ( Placement Shares ) to raise $320,000 (before costs). The issue price under this director placement represented:
-
a discount of 24% to the 10-day VWAP of the Company shares to 16 July 2020 (being $0.0158);
-
a discount of 19% to the 20-day VWAP of the Company shares to 16 July 2020 (being $0.0148); and
-
a premium of 20% to the Shortfall issue price of $0.01 (the Shortfall issue price represented a discount of 37% and 32% to the 10-day and 20-day VWAP of the Company shares to 16 July 2020 respectively).
Identical to the terms of the Shortfall, it is proposed subject to Shareholder approval that unlisted Free Attaching Options (each exercisable at $0.04 on or before 30 months from issue) are be issued under the director placement on the basis of 1 Option for every 4 Shares issued, totalling 6,666,666 Free Attaching Options.
Funds raised from the director placement will be used for further exploration activities on the Company’s projects, evaluation of additional acquisition opportunities and for working capital requirements. In addition to raising funds, the purpose of the director placement is to align the interests of the Board with Shareholders.
On 17 July 2020, the Company also announced that, further to the recent appointments of Non-Executive Directors Glenn Whiddon, James Bahen and James Pearse, as part of the remuneration packages agreed with each Director the Company has agreed subject to shareholder approval to issue each Director 5,000,000 Incentive Performance Rights expiring 5 years from issue which will convert into Shares on a 1 for 1 basis on the VWAP of the Company’s Shares reaching $0.04 over 20 consecutive trading days (on which Shares have actually traded) (representing 253% and 270% of the 10-day and 20-day VWAP of the Company shares to 16 July 2020 respectively, and 400% of the Shortfall issue price). The proposed issue of Performance Rights to the Directors provides a cost-effective
6
incentive based form of remuneration (particularly when coupled with the reduced director fees agreed with each Director as set out in the paragraph below) and is intended to reward and incentivise the Board for delivering value to Shareholders.
In addition to the proposed issue of Incentive Performance Rights, effective from 1 July 2020 the Company has agreed to pay each of James Bahen, Glenn Whiddon and James Pearse director fees of $2,000 per month, representing at least a 40% reduction to director fees paid to previous non-executive directors of the Company. Effective from 1 July 2020, each of James Bahen, Glenn Whiddon and James Pearse will accordingly be paid $24,000 per annum in director fees. James Pearse was appointed as a Non-Executive Director effective from 1 July 2020 and did not receive any remuneration prior to that date. Glenn Whiddon (appointed as a Non-Executive Director on 5 June 2020) and James Bahen (appointed as a Non-Executive Director on 8 April 2020) will each receive director fees of $3,000 per month (or pro rata portion thereof) to 30 June 2020.
The securities held by each Director as at the date of this Notice are set out below:
| Director | Current |
|---|---|
| James Bahen | Nil |
| Glenn Whiddon | 2,413,2621 |
| James Pearse | Nil |
| 1 Indirectly held through Getmeoutofhere Pty Ltd . As set out in the Appendix 3X lodged on 5 June 2020, Nautical Holdings WA Pty Ltd Super Fund A/C> holds 1,926,412 Shares. Glenn Whiddon has no relevant interest in Shares held by Nautical Holdings WA Pty Ltd as Jane Whiddon is the controller of this entity. However, they are noted here for good corporate governance purposes. |
1.2 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act
For a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:
-
(a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in Sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and
-
(b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,
unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in Sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.
The issue of the Placement Securities and Incentive Performance Rights constitutes the giving of a financial benefit, and James Bahen, Glenn Whiddon and James Pearse are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.
In relation to the securities proposed to be issued to each Director, the Board (with each Director who is proposed to receive securities not participating or being present during consideration of the proposed issue of securities to them) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporation Act is not required in respect of the issue of:
- Shares and Free Attaching Options because these securities are being issued on arm’s length terms – the issue of Shares at $0.012 per Share together with a 1:4 free attaching Option represents a 20% premium to the price of Shares
7
offered under the Shortfall (offered to all Shareholders under the NonRenounceable Entitlements Issue), a reasonable discount to the Company’s recent trading price at the time of announcing the issue and are otherwise on reasonable terms by reference to other placements of this size for similar companies; and
- the issue of Incentive Performance Rights because the agreement to grant such securities, reached as part of the remuneration package for each Director, is considered reasonable remuneration in the circumstances after review of publicly available information relating to the remuneration structures of similar companies.
1.3 Listing Rule 10.11
Listing Rule 10.11 provides that a company must not (subject to specified exceptions) issue or agree to issue equity securities to a related party without the approval of shareholders. James Bahen, Glenn Whiddon and James Pearse are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors. Therefore, approval is required under Listing Rule 10.11 for the issue of any Placement Securities or Incentive Performance Rights to each of them.
Resolutions 1 to 3 seek Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11 for the issue of the Placement Securities and Incentive Performance Rights to the Directors. If approval is given under Listing Rule 10.11, Shareholder approval is not required under Listing Rule 7.1. Furthermore, Shareholder approval of the issue of the Placement Securities and the Incentive Performance Rights means that these issues will not reduce the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolutions 1 to 3 are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Placement Securities and the Incentive Performance Rights to the Directors. If Resolutions 1 to 3 are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Placement Securities and the Incentive Performance Rights to the Directors, and the Company may need to seek alternative means of raising capital and re-negotiate the remuneration packages received by each Director.
Resolutions 1 to 3 are ordinary resolutions.

The Performance Rights have no right to participate in the surplus profits or assets of the Company upon a winding up of the Company.
14. Change in control
-
(a) If prior to the earlier of the conversion or the Expiry Date a Change in Control Event occurs, then each Performance Right will automatically and immediately convert into a Share. However, if the number of Shares to be issued as a result of the conversion of the Performance Rights is in excess of 10% of the total fully diluted share capital of the Company at the time of the conversion, then the number of Performance Rights to be converted will be reduced so that the aggregate number of Shares to be issued on conversion of the Performance Rights is equal to 10% of the entire fully diluted share capital of the Company.
-
(b) A Change of Control Event occurs when:
-
(i) takeover bid: the occurrence of the offeror under a takeover offer in respect of all Shares announcing that it has achieved acceptances in respect of more than 50.1% of shares and that takeover bid has become unconditional; or
-
(ii) scheme of arrangement: the announcement by the Company that the Shareholders have at a Court-convened meeting of Shareholders voted in favour, by the necessary majority, of a proposed scheme of arrangement under which all Company securities are to be either cancelled transferred to a third party, and the Court, by order, approves the proposed scheme of arrangement.
-
(c) The Company must ensure the allocation of shares issued under sub-paragraph (a) is on a pro rata basis to all Holders in respect of their respective holdings of Performance Rights and all remaining Performance Rights held by each Holder will remain on issue until conversion or expiry in accordance with the terms and conditions set out herein.
15. Timing of issue of Shares on exercise
Within 10 Business Days of receiving an Exercise Notice, the Company will:
-
(a) issue the number of Shares required under these terms and conditions in respect of the number of Performance Rights specified in the Notice of Exercise;
-
(b) if required, give ASX a notice that complies with section 708A(5) (e) of the Corporations Act, or, if the Company is unable to issue such a notice, lodge with ASIC a prospectus prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act and do all such things necessary to satisfy section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act to
14
ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors; and
(c) if admitted to the official list of ASX at the time, apply for official quotation on ASX of Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the Performance Rights.
16. Compliance with law
The conversion of the Performance Rights is subject to compliance at all times with the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules.
17.
Application to ASX
Performance Rights will not be quoted on ASX. On conversion of Performance Rights into Shares, the Company will within five (5) Business Days after the conversion, apply for official quotation on ASX of the Shares issued upon such conversion.
18. Ranking of Shares
Shares into which the Performance Rights will convert will rank parri passu in all respects with existing Shares.
19. No other rights
A Performance Right does not give a Holder any rights other than those expressly provided by these terms and those provided at law where such rights at law cannot be excluded by these terms.
