Resolution 1 – Remuneration Report

Subsection 250R(2) of the Corporations Act requires that at a listed company’s annual general meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted must be put to the shareholders. The Directors' Report contains the Remuneration Report which sets out the remuneration policy for the Company and the remuneration arrangements in place for the executive Directors, specified executives and non-executive Directors.

In accordance with subsection 250R(3) of the Corporations Act, Resolution 1 is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Directors will not be required to alter any of the arrangements in the Remuneration Report.

The Company's Remuneration Report did not receive a Strike at the 2020 annual general meeting. If at least 25% of the votes cast on this Resolution are voted against adoption of the Remuneration Report at this Meeting, and at the Company's 2022 annual general meeting, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders at the second annual meeting a resolution on whether another meeting should be held (within 90 days) at which all Directors (other than the managing director, if any) who were in office at the date of approval of the applicable Directors' Report must stand for re-election ( Spill Resolution ).

Page 11

Error! Unknown document property name.

If more than 50% of Shareholders vote in favour of the Spill Resolution, the Company must convene the general meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days of the Company's 2022 annual general meeting. All of the Directors who were in office when the Company's 2022 Directors' Report was approved, other than the managing director of the Company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting, but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting. Following the Spill Meeting, those persons whose election or re-election as Directors is approved will be the Directors of the Company.

A reasonable opportunity will be provided for discussion of the Remuneration Report at the Annual General Meeting.

Resolution 1 is an ordinary resolution.

Given the material personal interests of all Directors in this Resolution, the Board makes no recommendation to Shareholders regarding Resolution 1.

5. Resolution 2 – Re-election of Director – Mr Michael O'Keeffe

5.1 General

Article 6.3(d) of the Constitution requires that one Director must retire at each annual general meeting. Article 6.3(e) of the Constitution requires that the Directors to retire are those who have held their office as Director for the longest period since their last election or appointment to that office. In the event two or more Directors have held office for equal periods of time, the retiring Directors are to be determined by lot, unless otherwise agreed by those Directors.

Article 6.3(f) of the Constitution provides that a Director who retires in accordance with Article 6.3(d) is eligible for re-election.

As at the date of this Notice, the Company has three Directors and accordingly, one Director must retire.

Non-Executive Director, Mr Michael O'Keeffe was appointed as Non-Executive Director of the Company on 9 October 2018 and was re-elected last at the annual general meeting held on 29 November 2019 and accordingly retires and seeks re-election in accordance with Listing Rule 14.4 and Article 6.3(f) of the Constitution

If Resolution 2 is passed, Mr O'Keeffe will be appointed as a Non-Executive Director of the Company.

If Resolution 2 is not passed, Mr O'Keeffe will not be appointed as a Non-Executive Director of the Company.

Details regarding Mr O'Keeffe are set out in Section 5.2 below.

5.2

Background

Mr O’Keeffe is a metallurgist and currently the Executive Chairman of Champion Iron Limited (ASX/TSX: CIA) and a Director at Burgundy Diamond Mines Limited (ASX: BMD). His vast knowledge of the mining industry and its issues and his extensive experience managing large companies have given him an impressive track record of achievements. Mr O’Keeffe was previously Executive Chairman of Riversdale Mining Limited (2004 - 2011), Non-Executive Chairman of Riversdale Resources Limited (2013-2019) and Managing Director of Glencore Australia Limited (1995 - 2004).

Page 12

Mr O’Keeffe has acknowledged to the Company that he will have sufficient time to fulfil his responsibilities as a Director.

If elected, the Board considers Mr O'Keeffe to be an independent Director.

5.3

Board recommendation

Resolution 2 is an ordinary resolution.

After appropriate consideration, and taking into account his past performance, contributions to the Company and the current and future needs of the Board and the Company, the Board’s members (excluding Mr O’Keeffe) unanimously agreed that Mr O’Keeffe’s distinct set of skills and experience, including as stated above, are of obvious and on-going benefit to the Board.

The Directors (other than Mr O'Keeffe) recommend Shareholders vote in favour of the reelection of Mr O'Keeffe as he brings a wealth of business and corporate experience to the Board.

6. Resolution 3 – Approval to issue Consideration Shares as consideration for the Northern Lights Acquisition

6.1

Background to the Northern Lights Acquisition

On 3 September 2021, the Company announced that it had entered into a binding conditional agreement ( Acquisition Agreement ) with Northern Lights Minerals Pty Ltd ( Northern Lights to acquire a 75% interest in Northern Lights, an Australian proprietary company with mining claims and the rights to acquire significant further claims ( Acquisition Assets ) in the Upper Eastmain Greenstone Belt located in Quebec, Canada ( Acquisition ).

Settlement of the Acquisition Agreement is conditional upon the satisfaction or waiver of the following conditions precedent by 1 November 2021 (or such later date as the parties agree):

  • (a) satisfaction of the Company's due diligence investigations.

  • (b) completion of a capital raising of no less than A$4,000,000 (before costs), as set out in Resolution 4;

  • (c) Shareholder approval for the issue of the Consideration Shares, being the subject of this Resolution 3; and

  • (d) entering into a formal agreement.

Upon settlement, the Company has agreed to issue 5,000,000 Consideration Shares at a deemed price of $0.20 per Share to the shareholders of Northern Lights ( Vendors ) or their nominees as consideration for the Acquisition of the Assets.

Northern Lights holds claims and has the rights to acquire the balance of the Acquisition Assets pursuant to the following agreements:

  • (a) Northern Lights is party to an agreement with Dios Exploration Inc providing Northern Lights the right to acquire a 70% interest in the certain claims (and associated mining information); and

Page 13

  • (b) a subsidiary of Northern Lights holds rights to acquire 100% of the rights in assets held by Focus Graphite Inc.

Further information on Northern Lights and the Acquisition Assets is set out in the Company's announcement dated 3 September 2021.

The Acquisition Agreement contains additional provisions, including warranties and indemnities in respect of the Acquisition Assets, which are considered standard for agreements of this nature.

6.2

General

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of the Consideration Shares to the Vendors (or their respective nominees) under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

A detailed description of the Acquisition is outlined in Section 6.1 above.

Resolution 3 is an ordinary Resolution.

6.3

Inter-conditional Resolution

Resolution 3 is an Inter-conditional Resolution, meaning that it is conditional on Shareholders approving the other Inter-conditional Resolution, being Resolution 4. In the event that Shareholders do not approve either or both of Resolution 3 and Resolution 4, both of the Interconditional Resolutions will not take effect and the Company will not proceed with the Acquisition and associated Placement.

6.4

Listing Rule 7.1

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits 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 shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

While the proposed issue does not exceed the Company's 15% limit under Listing Rule 7.1 and can therefore be made without breaching that rule, the issue is subject to Shareholder approval pursuant to the terms of the Acquisition Agreement. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders. Further, 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.

To this end, Resolution 3 seeks the required Shareholder approval to the issue of Consideration Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Consideration Shares. In addition, the issue will be excluded from the calculation of the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 3 is not passed, the issue of the Consideration Shares will not proceed and the Company will not be able to complete the Acquisition Agreement.

Page 14

6.5 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3

Under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of the Consideration Shares:

  • (a) the Consideration Shares will be issued to the Vendors (or their nominees), none of whom is a Material Investor or a related party of the Company;

  • (b) a maximum of 5,000,000 Shares are to be issued as Consideration Shares;

  • (c) the Consideration Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company and will rank equally in all respects with the Company's existing Shares on issue;

  • (d) the Consideration Shares are intended to be issued on the same date, being the date of settlement of the Acquisition Agreement, which in any event will be 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);

  • (e) the Consideration Shares will be issued for nil cash consideration as consideration for the acquisition of the Acquisition Assets. The Consideration Shares have a deemed value of $0.20 and represent total consideration value of $1,000,000. Accordingly, no funds will be raised from the issue;

  • (f) a summary of the material terms of the Acquisition Agreement is set out in Section 6.1 above; and

  • (g) a voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.

6.6 Board recommendation

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.

The Chair intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of Resolution 3.

7. Resolution 4 – Approval of issue of Placement Shares

7.1

General

As announced on 3 September 2021, the Company intends to undertake a capital raising in connection with the Acquisition to raise up to $4,000,000 (before costs) through the issue of up to 20,000,000 Shares ( Placement Shares ) at an issue price of $0.20, subject to Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 ( Placement ).

The issue price under the Placement will be $0.20.

The issue of the Placement Shares does not fit within any of the exceptions to Listing Rule 7.1 and, and accordingly, the Company is unable to issue the Placement Shares without seeking Shareholder Approval.

7.2

Listing Rule 7.1

A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is contained in Section 6.34 above

Page 15

The effect of Shareholders passing Resolution 4 will be to allow the Company to issue the Placement Shares and retain the flexibility to issue Equity Securities in the future up to the 10% additional placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1A without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

If Resolution 4 is passed, up to 20,000,000 Placement 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 the issue date. If Resolution 4 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Placement Shares and raise up to $4,000,000 for undertaking exploration on its existing Wapatik assets, in respect of the Acquisition Assets and for general working capital. In addition, the issue will be excluded from the calculation of the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 4 is not passed, the Company will not be able to undertake the Placement or complete the Acquisition.

7.3 Inter-conditional Resolution

Resolution 4 is an Inter-conditional Resolution, meaning that it is conditional on Shareholders approving the other Inter-conditional Resolution, being Resolution 3. In the event that Shareholders do not approve either or both of Resolution 3 and Resolution 4, both of the Interconditional Resolutions will not take effect and the Company will not proceed with the Acquisition and associated Placement.

7.4

Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3

Under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of the Placement Shares:

  • (a) the Placement Shares will be issued to Placement Participants, being sophisticated and professional investors to whom a disclosure document does not need to be provided under the Corporations Act, none of whom will be a related party of the Company or a Material Investor, noting that Directors will participate in the Placement on the terms set out in, and subject to Shareholders approving, the resolutions comprising Resolution 5. The Placement Participants have not yet been identified but will be likely be existing contacts of the Company (including existing Shareholders) and clients of the Corporate Advisor;

  • (b) up to 20,000,000 Shares are to be issued as Placement Shares;

  • (c) the Placement Shares will be issued as fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company and will rank equally in all respects with the Company's existing Shares on issue;

  • (d) the Placement Shares 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). It is intended that the Placement Shares will be issued on the same date;

  • (e) the Placement Shares will be issued at $0.20 per Share;

Page 16

  • (f) the Company intends to apply the funds raised from the issue of the Placement in relation to the development of the Acquisition Assets, the Wapatik assets and for working capital purposes;

  • (g) there are no additional material terms with respect to the agreements for the issue of the Placement Shares; and

  • (h) a voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.

7.5 Board recommendation

Resolution 4 is an ordinary resolution.

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4.

8. Resolution 5 - Approval to allow Directors to participate in the Placement

8.1 General

Pursuant to Resolution 4, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval for the Placement, being the issue of up to 20,000,000 Placement Shares at an issue price of $0.20 each to raise up to $4,000,000 (before costs).

Directors Messrs Peter Ruse, Gary Lawler and Michael O'Keeffe (together, the Related Party Participants ) each wish to participate in the Placement, subject to Shareholder approval being obtained.

The resolutions which form part of Resolution 5 seek the approval of Shareholders for the issue of up to 1,800,000 Shares to the Related Party Participants (or their nominees) arising from their participation in the Placement ( Participation ) under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.

Each of the resolutions which forms part of Resolution 5 is an ordinary resolution.

Each member of the Board has a material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolutions and therefore does not make a recommendation in respect of the resolutions which form part of Resolution 5.

8.2

Listing Rule 10.11

Listing Rule 10.11 requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a related party, or a person whose relationship with the entity or a related party is, in ASX's opinion, such that approval should be obtained, unless an exception in Listing Rule 10.12 applies.

The Related Party Participants are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors. As the Participation involves the issue of Shares to related parties of the Company, Shareholder approval under and for the purposes of 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 under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the Participation as approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of Shares to the

Page 17

Related Party Participants (or their nominees) will not be included in the use of the Company's 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

Under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed Participation:

  • (a) the Shares will be issued to Directors:

  • (i) Mr Peter Ruse;

  • (ii) Mr Gary Lawler; and

  • (iii) Mr Michael O'Keeffe.

  • (or their respective nominees);

  • (b) the maximum number of Placement Shares to be issued to the Related Party Participants is 1,800,000 in the following proportions:

  • (i) up to 500,000 Placement Shares to Mr Peter Ruse (or his nominee);

  • (ii) up to 300,000 Placement Shares to Mr Gary Lawler (or his nominee); and

  • (iii) up to 1,000,000 Placement Shares to Mr Michael O'Keeffe (or his nominee);

  • (c) the Shares will be issued no later than one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules);

  • (d) the issue price will be $0.20 per Share, being the same as all other Shares issued under the Placement;

  • (e) the Placement Shares issued will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company's existing Shares;

  • (f) the funds raised will be used for the same purposes as all other funds raised under the Placement as set out in Section 7.4(f); and

  • (g) a voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.

9. Resolution 6 – Approval of 10% Placement Facility

9.1 General

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed entity 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.

Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an eligible entity may seek Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to allow it to issue Equity Securities totalling up to 10% of its issued capital through placements over a period up to 12 months after

Page 18

the annual general meeting ( 10% Placement Facility ). The 10% Placement Facility is in addition to the Company's 15% annual placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 6 is a special resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of this Resolution for it to be passed.

Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to provide the Company the ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility during the 10% Placement Period (refer to Section 8.1(a) below). 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 8.1(b) below).

If Resolution 6 is passed, the Company will be able to issue equity securities up to the combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without any further shareholder approval.

If Resolution 6 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the additional 10% capacity to issue equity securities without shareholder approval provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A and will remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing equity securities without shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.

The Board believes that this Resolution is in the best interests of the Company and unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of this resolution.

(a) Is the Company an eligible entity?

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.

The Company is an eligible entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of approximately $11.6 million, based on the closing price of Shares ($0.305) on 21 September 2021.

(b)

What Equity Securities can be issued?

The Equity Securities must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted Equity Securities. The Company currently has one class of quoted Equity Securities on issue being:

(i) 37,876,715 fully paid ordinary Shares.

In addition, the Company has on issue the following Securities, which are subject to ASX restriction agreements:

  • (ii) 1,500,000 unquoted Options expiring 7 May 2022 and exercisable at $0.25;

  • (iii) 1,250,000 unquoted Options expiring 7 May 2022 and exercisable at $0.30; and

  • (iv) 1,250,000 unquoted Options expiring 7 May 2022 and exercisable at $0.35,

( Unquoted Options ).

  • (c) How many Equity Securities can be issued?

Page 19

Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that under the approved 10% Placement Facility, the Company may issue or agree to issue a number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:

(A x D) – E

Where:

A is the number of Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

  • (i) plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;

  • (ii) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the 12 months; (iii) plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the 12 months with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include any issue of Shares under the Company's 15% annual placement capacity without Shareholder approval; and

  • (iv) less the number of fully paid Shares cancelled in the 12 months.

Note that "A" has the same meaning in Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating the Company's 15% annual placement capacity.

  • D is 10%.

E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of the issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.

  • (d)

What is the interaction with Listing Rule 7.1?

The Company's ability to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A will be in addition to its 15% annual placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • (e)

At what price can the Equity Securities be issued?

The issue price of Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A must be not less than 75% of the VWAP of Equity Securities in the same class calculated over the 15 Trading Days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • (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,

( Minimum Issue Price ).

(f) When can Equity Securities be issued?

Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under Listing Rule 7.1A will be valid from the date of Meeting and will expire on the earlier to occur of:

Page 20

  • (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the Meeting; or

  • (ii) the date of Shareholder approval of a transaction under Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking),

( 10% Placement Period ).

(g)

What is the effect of this Resolution?

The effect of this Resolution will be to allow the Directors to issue the Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the 10% Placement Period without further Shareholder approval or using the Company's 15% annual placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

9.2 Technical Information Required by Listing Rule 7.1A

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to this Resolution:

(a) Minimum Issue Price

The Minimum Issue Price at which the Equity Securities may be issued is 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 Trading Days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • (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, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

If the Company issues Equity Securities for non-cash consideration under the 10% Placement Facility, then, in accordance with the Listing Rules, the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration to the market that demonstrates that the issue price of the Equity Securities complies with Listing Rule 7.1A.3.

(b)

Date of Issue

The Company will only issue the Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility during the 10% Placement Period.

Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility will cease to be valid if Shareholders approve a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 or 11.2.

(c)

Risk of voting dilution

Any issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue.

If this Resolution is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below (in the case of Options, only if the Options are converted into Shares).

Page 21

The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in Listing Rule 7.1A.2, on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of Equity Securities on issue as at the date of this Notice.

The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 10% Placement Facility.

* 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 above uses the following assumptions:

  1. The current Shares on issue are the Shares on issue as at 21 September 2021.

  2. The current issue price set out above is the last price at which Shares were traded prior to the close of trading on 21 September 2021 (being $0.305).

  3. The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility.

  4. The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares (it does not include Partly Paid Shares or Quotes Options even though those securities may be issued under the 10% Placement Facility). It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities.

  5. The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.

  6. This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under Listing Rule 7.1.

Page 22

Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:

  • (i) the market price for the Company’s Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Annual General Meeting; and

  • (ii) the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Shares on the date of issue 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.

(d)

Purpose of Issue under 10% Placement Facility

The Company may decide to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility for cash consideration to raise funds for the purpose of advancing any of its projects and working capital.

The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A.4 and 3.10.5A upon any issue of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.

(e)

Allocation under the 10% Placement Facility

The allottees of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Facility have not yet been determined. However, the allottees of Equity Securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be a related party or an associate of a related party of the Company.

The Company will determine the allottees at the time of the issue under the 10% Placement Facility, having regard to the following factors:

  • (i) the purpose of the issue;

  • (ii) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;

  • (iii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;

  • (iv) the Company’s circumstances, including, but not limited to, its financial position and solvency;

  • (v) prevailing market conditions; and

  • (vi) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).

(f) Previous Approval under Listing Rule 7.1A

The Company obtained approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at its previous annual general meeting on 9 November 2020. In the 12 months preceding the date of the Meeting and as at the date of this Notice, the Company has not issued Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.

Page 23

9.3 Voting Exclusion

A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice. As at the date of this Notice, the Company has not invited any existing Shareholder or security holder or an identifiable class of existing security holder to participate in an issue of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A. Therefore, no existing Shareholders will be excluded from voting on this Resolution.

10. Resolution 7– Approval to issue Corporate Advisor Options

10.1

Corporate Advisor Fees

In connection with services relating to the Placement, the Company has agreed to pay and issue respectively Peloton Capital Pty Ltd ACN 149 540 018 ( Corporate Advisor ) the following:

  • (a) a capital raising fee of 5% of the total amount raised ( Selling Fee ); and

  • (b) 5,000,000 Options exercisable at $0.35 per Share expiring three years from the date of issue ( Corporate Advisor Options ).

Resolution 7 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of the Corporate Advisor Options to the Corporate Advisor (or its nominees) under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 7 is passed, the issue of Corporate Advisor Options can proceed without using up any of the Company's 15% limit on issuing Equity Securities without Shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 7 is not passed, the issue of Corporate Advisor Options can still proceed, but it will reduce, to that extent, the Company's capacity to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for 12 months following the issue.

10.2

Listing Rule 7.1

A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is contained in Section 6.4 above.

10.3

Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3

Under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of the Corporate Advisor Options:

  • (a) a maximum of 5,000,000 Corporate Advisor Options will be issued to the Corporate Advisor (or its nominees), which is an advisor to the Company;

  • (b) the Corporate Advisory Options will be exercisable at $0.35 per Share expiring three years from the date of issue and will otherwise be issued on the terms and conditions set out Schedule 2. The Corporate Advisory Options are intended to be issued on the same date, 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);

  • (c) the Corporate Advisor Options will be issued for nil cash consideration, at a deemed issue price of $0.35 each, in addition to the Selling Fee. Accordingly, no funds will be raised from the issue;

Page 24

  • (d) a summary of the material terms of the Corporate Advisor's engagement in respect of the Placement is set out in Section 10.1 above; and

  • (e) a voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.

10.4 Board recommendation

Resolution 7 is an ordinary resolution.

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 7.

11. Resolution 8- Approval to issue Director Options

11.1 General

The Company is proposing subject to obtaining Shareholder approval to issue shares as part of each of the Directors remuneration ( Director Options ) by the issuing a total of:

  • (a) 1,500,000 Options to Mr Peter Ruse (or his nominees) as part of his remuneration as Director of the Company;

  • (b) 1,500,000 Options to Mr Gary Lawler (or his nominees) as part of his remuneration as Director of the Company; and

  • (c) 1,500,000 Options to Mr Michael O'Keeffe (or his nominees) as part of his remuneration as Director of the Company.

The Director Options provide an incentive component to the each of the Directors remuneration package, and align their interests with those of Shareholders. The Board considers that the number of Director Options to be granted to each of the Directors is commensurate with their value to the Company and is an appropriate method to provide cost effective remuneration. The Board believes it is important to offer these Director Options to continue to attract and maintain highly experienced and qualified Board members in a competitive market.

The Director Options will be issued for nil cash consideration, exercisable at $0.35 per Share expiring three years from the date of issue. The full terms and conditions of the Director Options are set out in Schedule 2.

Resolution 8 seeks the approval of Shareholders for the issue of the Director Options to each Director or their nominees under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.

11.2

Listing Rule 10.11

A summary of Listing Rule 10.11 is set out in Section 8.2.

The resolutions that form part of Resolution 8 seek the required Shareholder approval to the proposed issues of Placement Shares to the Related Party Participants under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.

The proposed issue of Director Options to Messrs Peter Ruse, Gary Lawler and Michael O'Keeffe (or their respective nominees) fall within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.

Page 25

Resolution 8 seeks the required Shareholder approval to the proposed issues of Director Options under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.

If Resolution 8 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Director Options to:

  • (a) Mr Peter Ruse (or his nominees) and Mr Ruse;

  • (b) Mr Gary Lawler (or his nominees) and Mr Lawler;

  • (c) Mr Michael O'Keeffe (or his nominees) and Mr O'Keeffe;

will be remunerated accordingly.

If Resolution 8 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Director Options to Messrs Ruse, Lawler and O'Keeffe and the Company may need to consider other forms of incentive remuneration.

As Shareholder approval is sought under Listing Rule 10.11, approval under Listing Rule 7.1 is not required. Accordingly, the issue of Director Options will not be included under the Company's 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

11.3

Specific information required by Listing Rule 10.13

Under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of Director Options:

  • (a) a maximum:

  • (i) of 1,500,000 Director Options will be issued to Mr Peter Ruse (or his nominees), a Director of the Company;

  • (ii) of 1,500,000 Director Options will be issued to Mr Gary Lawler (or his nominees), a Director of the Company; and

  • (iii) of 1,500,000 Director Options will be issued to Mr Michael O'Keeffe (or his nominees), a Director of the Company.

  • (b) Messrs Ruse, Lawler and O'Keeffe are related parties of the Company by virtue of being a Director and fall into the category stipulated by Listing Rule 10.11.1. In the event the Director Options are issued to a nominee of Messrs Ruse, Lawler or O'Keeffe, that person will fall into the category stipulated by Listing Rule 10.11.4;

  • (c) the Director Options will be issued with an exercise price of $0.35 and an expiry date of 3 years from the date of issue and otherwise on the terms set out in Resolution 8. The Director Options will be issued no later than one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules);

  • (d) the Director Options will be issued for nil cash consideration as they will be issued as part of Messrs Ruse, Lawler and O'Keeffe's remuneration package, and therefore no funds will be raised as a result of the issue. Funds raised upon any exercise of the Director Options are intended to be used for general working capital purposes;

  • (e) a voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.

Page 26

  • (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.

It is the view of the Board that the exceptions set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act do not apply in the current circumstances.

The Shares to be issued upon conversion of the Director Options will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company on the same terms and conditions as the Company's existing Shares and will rank equally in all respects with the Company's existing Shares. The Company will apply for official quotation of the Shares on ASX.

(c) Valuation of financial benefit

Using a Black & Scholes valuation model, the Company's valuation of the Director Options is in Schedule 3, with a summary for each Related Party below:

Page 28

  • (b) Class B: 750,000 Options at an exercise price of $0.30, with an expiry date 3 years from the Admission Date; and

  • (c) Class C: 750,000 Options at an exercise price of $0.35, with an expiry date 3 years from the Admission Date.

Assuming that each of the resolutions which form part of Resolution 8 are approved by Shareholders, all of the Director Options the subject of Resolution 8 are issued, vested and exercised into Shares, and no other Equity Securities are issued or exercised, the respective interests of the Related Parties in the Company would be as follows:

  • (i) Mr Ruse's interest would represent approximately 6.3% of the Company's expanded capital;

  • (ii) Mr Lawler's interest would represent approximately 5.2% of the Company's expanded capital; and

  • (iii) Mr O'Keeffe's interest would represent approximately 8.6% of the Company's expanded capital.

(f)

Trading history

The highest and lowest closing market sale prices of the Shares on ASX during the 12 months prior to the date of this Notice were:

Highest: $0.40 per Share on 4 May 2021; and Lowest: $0.20 per Share on 4 August 2021.

The latest available closing market sale price of the Shares on ASX prior to the date of this Notice was $0.305 per Share on 21 September 2021.

(g) Dilution

The issue of the Director Options will have a diluting effect on the percentage interest of existing Shareholders' holdings if the Director Options vest and are exercised. The potential dilution effect is summarised below:

Director Options Dilutionary effect
Peter Ruse 3.8%
Gary Lawler 3.8%
Michael O'Keeffe 3.8%

The above table assumes the current Share capital structure as at the date of this Notice (being 37,876,715 Shares on 21 September 2021) and that no Shares are issued other than the Shares issued on exercise of the Director Options. The exercise of all of the Director Options will result in a total dilution of all other Shareholders' holdings of 11.1% on a fully diluted basis (assuming that all Director Options pursuant to Resolution 8 are exercised). The actual dilution will depend on the extent that additional Shares are issued by the Company.

Page 29
