EXPLANATORY NOTES
This Explanatory Memorandum has been prepared for the shareholders of Timpetra Resources Limited to provide information about the items of business to be considered at the Annual General Meeting of shareholders to be held on Monday 24 November 2014. Shareholders are encouraged to read this document in full.
With the exception of Resolution 1, all of the resolutions to be voted on are ordinary resolutions. Resolution 1 is a non-binding resolution. An ordinary resolution requires a simple majority of votes cast by shareholders entitled to vote on the resolution in order for it to be carried.
If appropriate and if time permits, the Chairman will discuss significant issues raised by shareholders prior to the Meeting and will invite questions and comments from shareholders on these key issues and any other appropriate and relevant matters that shareholders would like to raise at the Meeting.
In addition, a reasonable opportunity will be given to members present at the Meeting to ask the Company’s auditor, Ernst & Young, questions relevant to the conduct of the audit, the preparation and content of the Auditor’s Report, the accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of the financial statements and the independence of the auditor. If you would like to submit a written question to Ernst & Young before the Meeting on any of the foregoing matters, please send your question to the Company Secretary, Nick Geddes, at [email protected] before 17 November 2014.
If you have a more general issue or question that you would like discussed at the Meeting, please write to the Company Secretary, Nick Geddes, at the above address.
How will the Chairman vote as proxy if the Shareholder has not directed the Chairman to vote?
The Chairman intends to vote in favour of all Resolutions. If a Shareholder appoints the Chairman of the Annual General Meeting as proxy and does not direct the Chairman how to vote on a Resolution then, if that Shareholder is entitled to vote on that Resolution, the Chairman will vote in favour of that Resolution.
Resolution 1: Adoption of the Remuneration Report
Consistent with section 250R of the Corporations Act, the Company submits to shareholders for consideration and adoption, by way of a non-binding resolution, its Remuneration Report for the year ended 30 June 2014.
The Remuneration Report is a distinct section of the annual Directors’ Report which deals with the remuneration of Directors and executives (which includes senior management) of the Company. The Remuneration Report can be located in the Company’s Annual Report on pages 14 to 20. The annual report is available online at www.timpetra.com under “News & Reports”.
The resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Company or its directors. However, the Board will consider the outcome of the vote and comments made by shareholders at the meeting on the remuneration report when reviewing the Company’s remuneration policies. If 25% or more of votes that are cast are voted against the adoption of the remuneration report at two consecutive AGMs, shareholders will be required to vote at the second of those AGMs on a resolution (a “spill resolution”) that another meeting be held within 90 days at which all of the Company’s directors (other than the Managing Director / CEO) must stand for reelection. The Company encourages all shareholders to vote on Resolution 1 (Adoption of Remuneration Report).
The Chairman intends to exercise all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1. If the Chairman of the meeting is appointed as your proxy and you have not directed the Chairman how to vote on Resolution 1 by signing and returning the Proxy Form, the Shareholder is considered to have provided an express authorisation for the Chairman to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chairman’s intention.
Timpetra Resources Limited ABN 74 143 928 625
Resolution 2: Election of Mr Dimitri Burshtein as a Director
Pursuant to Clause 28.3 of the Constitution, Mr Burshtein will retire and seeks election. Mr Burshtein was appointed as a Director to the Board in March 2014.
Dimitri Burshtein is the Group Executive, Corporate and Business Development for the Financial & Energy Exchange (FEX) Group. He is also a non-executive director of Envex and a non-executive director of Next Generation Energy Solutions. Dimitri holds a Bachelor of Economics, a Master of Commerce and a Master of Business Administration and is a Fellow of the Australian Institute of Company Directors. Prior to FEX, Dimitri was the General Manager, Corporate Finance and Investor Relations for ASX Limited. The Board supports the election of Mr Burshtein.
Resolution 3, 4 and 5: Approval of issue of options to Directors in accordance with Listing Rule 10.11
The purpose of Resolutions 3, 4 and 5 is to approve the grant of 687,500 unlisted options over ordinary shares to each of Messrs Burshtein, O'Neill and Priestley.
The proposed grant is in respect of 687,500 options to each Director and if approved by shareholders will be granted within one month of the date of the Annual General Meeting and will comprise a component of the Director's remuneration. Remunerating Directors in this manner reduces the cash cost to the Company and aligns the reward to senior management with those to shareholders.
As Messrs Burshtein, O'Neill and Priestley are Directors of the Company, ASX Listing Rule 10.11 requires shareholder approval for the proposed grant of options. If shareholder approval is given under Listing Rule 10.11, shareholder approval is not required under Listing Rule 7.1.
No funds will be raised by the grant of options to Messrs Burshtein, O'Neill and Priestley. However upon exercise of the options the funds subscribed for shares will be employed for working capital.
The opinion of Egan Associates Pty Ltd was sought in relation to the proposed grant and they advise that “having regard to the circumstances of the Company and the circumstances of the proposed options grant to related party participants, the provisions of the relevant remuneration would be reasonable having regard to Section 211 of the Corporations Act.”
The terms of the options are as follows:
PRICE - The options are exercisable at an exercise price of $0.15 per share.
MAXIMUM NO OF SECURITIES- the maximum number of shares issued upon the exercise of options would be 687,500 ordinary shares.
LOAN ARRANGEMENTS : No loan arrangements have been made with Messrs Burshtein, O'Neill and Priestley in relation to the acquisition of the securities.
EXPIRY - The options have an 84 month (7 years) duration from date of grant.
VESTING CONDITIONS - The options will vest after 60 months (5 years) after the grant date subject to the following conditions:
- Subject to the below share price growth (SPG) performance hurdles on the fifth anniversary.
| TPR SPG over the Performance period |
Percentage of Performance Options vesting |
|---|---|
| Less than 33.33% | Nil |
| Greaterthanorequalto 33.33% | 100% |
- The exercising Director must be a Director or executive of the Company for a continuous period from the date of option issue to the date of option exercise.
TRANSFERABILITY - The Options may not be assigned or transferred;
Timpetra Resources Limited ABN 74 143 928 625
TERMINATION -The options would be automatically terminated if the Director is involuntarily terminated for cause. However, if a Director is voluntarily terminated for health or other compassionate grounds, vesting condition 2 may be waived at the discretion of the Board.
LISTING RULES -The Options are subject to the ASX Listing Rules relating to capital reorganisation. The rights of an option holder may be changed to comply with the listing rules applying to a reorganisation of capital at the time of the reorganisation.
Notwithstanding that the terms of the options provide for them to be granted within three months of the meeting, ASX Listing Rule 10.11 provides that such securities be granted no later than one month after the date of this meeting.
Details of any securities issued under the employee incentive scheme will be published in each annual report of the entity relating to a period in which securities have been issued, and that approval for the issue of securities was obtained under listing rule 10.14.
Any additional persons who become entitled to participate in the employee incentive scheme after the resolution was approved and who were not named in the notice of meeting will not participate until approval is obtained under listing rule 10.14.
In respect to the Options to be issued, Messrs Burshtein, O'Neill and Priestley cannot participate in new issues of securities by the Company without first exercising their Options.
