This is a second supplementary prospectus issued by Eastern Goldfields Limited ACN 100 038 266 (Company) dated 16 February 2016 (Second Supplementary Prospectus). This Second Supplementary Prospectus is supplementary to the prospectus issued by the Company on 24 December 2015 (Prospectus) and supplementary prospectus issued by the Company on 9 February 2016 (Supplementary Prospectus).
This Second Supplementary Prospectus was lodged with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) on 16 February 2016. ASIC does not take any responsibility for the contents of this Second Supplementary Prospectus.
This Second Supplementary Prospectus must be read together with the Prospectus and Supplementary Prospectus. If there is a conflict between the Prospectus, the Supplementary Prospectus and this Second Supplementary Prospectus, this Second Supplementary Prospectus will prevail to the extent of any inconsistency.

This document is important and should be read in its entirety. Please consult your legal, financial or other professional advisor if you do not fully understand its contents.
2 PURPOSE OF THIS DOCUMENT
The purpose of this Supplementary Prospectus is to:
- (a) advise shareholders of the Company's revised capital raising plans and increased Offer size as a result of a high level of investor demand for the Company's shares; and
- (b) provide revised disclosures regarding the capital structure and use of funds as a result of the increased Offer size.
3 AMENDMENT TO PROSPECTUS
3.1 Revised capital raising plans – increased Offer size
The Company issued the Prospectus to raise a minimum of \$6 million and a maximum of \$10 million from a combination of the 2015 Lender Agreements and the Prospectus, with the ability to accept oversubscriptions for an additional \$5 million.
Subsequent to the issue of the Prospectus, the Company has experienced a high level of demand from investors for the Company's Shares, which would potentially allow the
This Supplementary Prospectus is intended to be read with the Prospectus dated 24 December 2015 and Supplementary Prospectus dated 9 February 2016, relating to shares of Eastern Goldfields Limited ACN 100 038 266.
maximum subscription, and oversubscription amounts under the Prospectus to be met or exceeded.
Consequently, in view of the demand for the Company's Shares, the Company has determined to increase the size of the Offer under the Prospectus.
The Company now proposes to raise a minimum of \$6 million and a maximum of \$20 million at \$0.15 per Share from a combination of the 2015 Lender Agreements and the Prospectus, with the ability to accept oversubscriptions for an additional \$5 million.
The revised capital raising will be comprised of:
- (a) \$10 million to be raised from a combination of the 2015 Lender Agreements and the Prospectus, for which the Company sought and obtained approval at the 2015 General Meeting (First Tranche);
- (b) \$10 million to be raised under the Prospectus as a result of the increased Offer size under this Second Supplementary Prospectus (Second Tranche); and
- (c) \$5 million to be raised under the Prospectus as a result of the revised oversubscription facility (Oversubscription Facility).
The Company will raise:
- (a) \$5 million of the Second Tranche by utilising its 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 following the issue of Shares under the First Tranche and the various resolutions put to shareholders at the 2015 General Meeting; and
- (b) the remaining \$5 million of the Second Tranche and the \$5 million amount under the Oversubscription Facility (if applicable) subject to shareholder approval to be put to shareholders at the Company's 2015 Annual General Meeting to be held on 16 March 2016.
As noted in the Prospectus, the Company intended to undertake future equity and/or debt raisings to fund the Company's activities. The Company considers it beneficial to capitalise on the current level of investor demand by undertaking the further equity raisings sooner than it had anticipated. The Company notes that the increased offer size under the capital raising does not provide all of the capital required for a mining re-start of Eastern Goldfields' projects, and in the near term it is the intention of Eastern Goldfields to source further financing, which is likely to be debt funding, to fund completion of the Davyhurst Plant refurbishment, and a mining re-start.
3.2 Revised use of funds
As a result of the increased Offer size, the use of funds table in the Investment Overview and section 1.6 of the Prospectus (as replicated in the Supplementary Prospectus) is to be disregarded and replaced with the following table.

4 APPLICATIONS
The Directors believe that the changes in this Second Supplementary Prospectus are not materially adverse from the point of view of an investor.

6 ASIC RELIEF
The Company also notes that, due to an inadvertent and minor clerical error, the Appendix 3B "Application for Quotation" issued by the Company on 24 December 2015 with the Prospectus referred to 66,666,667 Shares being issued under the Offer only and did not refer to the further 33,333,333 Shares being offered under the oversubscription facility. Accordingly, and out of an abundance of caution, the Company is seeking ASIC relief to modify the application of section 723(3)(a) of the Corporations Act to allow a revised application for quotation to apply to the full raising under the revised Offer including in relation to the Oversubscription Facility.
This Supplementary Prospectus is intended to be read with the Prospectus dated 24 December 2015 and Supplementary Prospectus dated 9 February 2016, relating to shares of Eastern Goldfields Limited ACN 100 038 266.
