6. Resolution 6 - Approval of 10% Placement Facility

6.1 Introduction

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A came into effect on 1 August 2012 and enables an eligible entity to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued share capital through placements over a 12 month period after the eligible entity's AGM ( 10% Placement Facility ). The 10% Placement Facility is in addition to the entity's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

An eligible entity for the purposes of ASX 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 for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A.

The effect of Resolution 6 will be to allow the Directors to issue the Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the period up to 12 months after the Meeting without subsequent Shareholder approval and without using the Company's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 6 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative).

The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.

Page 7

6.2 Summary of ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

  • (a) Equity Securities

Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility must be in the same class as an existing quoted class of Equity Securities of the Company. At the date of this Notice, the Company has one class of quoted Equity Securities, being its Shares.

  • (b) Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility

Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that eligible entities which have obtained shareholder approval at an Annual General Meeting may issue or agree to issue, during the 12 month period after the date of the Annual General Meeting, a number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:

( )

Where:

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

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

  • (b) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the 12 months;

  • (c) plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months with approval of holders of shares under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid shares under the entity's 15% placement capacity without shareholder approval;

  • (d) 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 an entity's 15% 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 the approval of shareholders under Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.4.

  • (c) Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A

The ability of an entity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A is in addition to the entity's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1. At the date of this Notice, the Company has a capacity to issue:

  • (1) nil Shares under Listing Rule 7.1; and

  • (2) subject to Shareholder approval being obtained under Resolution 6, 726,133 Shares under Listing Rule 7.1A.

The actual number of Equity Securities that the Company will have capacity to issue under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated at the date of issue of the Equity Securities in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to Section 6.2(b) above).

Page 8

(d) Minimum Issue Price

The issue price of Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A must be not less than 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in the same class calculated over the 15 ASX trading days immediately before:

  • (1) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or

  • (2) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 ASX trading days of the date in Section 6.2(e)(i), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

  • (e)

  • 10% Placement Period

Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under Listing Rule 7.1A is valid from the date of the AGM at which the approval is obtained and expires on the earlier to occur of:

  • (1) the date that is 12 months after the date of the AGM at which the approval is obtained; or

  • (2) the date of the approval by shareholders 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 ).

  • (f) Shareholder approval

The ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility is subject to shareholder approval by way of a special resolution at an AGM.

6.3 Information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.3A

ASX Listing Rule 7.3A sets out a number of matters which must be included in a notice of meeting seeking an approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. The following information is provided for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3A:

  • (a) The Equity Securities will be issued at an issue price of not less than 75% of the volume weighted average price for the Company's Equity Securities over the 15 ASX trading days immediately before:

  • (1) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or

  • (2) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 ASX trading days of the date in paragraph 6.3(a)(i), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

  • (b) If the Company issues Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility, existing Shareholders' voting power in the Company will be diluted as shown in the table below. There is a risk that:

  • (1) the market price for the Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than on the date of the Meeting; and

  • (2) the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for the Equity Securities on the issue date,

which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the Equity Securities.

The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of ordinary securities for variable "A"

Page 9

calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 as at the date of this Notice.

The table also shows:

  • (1) two examples where variable "A" has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable "A" is based on the number of ordinary securities the Company has on issue. The number of ordinary securities on issue may increase as a result of issues of ordinary securities that do not require Shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or future specific placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders' meeting; and

  • (2) two examples of where the issue price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.

The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

  • (1) the current issue price is $0.009, being the closing price of the Company's Shares on ASX on 22 October 2013;

  • (2) the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility;

  • (3) no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities;

  • (4) the 10% dilution reflects the aggregate percentage voting dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the dilution is shown in each example as 10%;

  • (5) the table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Facility, based on that Shareholder's holding at the date of the Meeting;

  • (6) the table shows only the effect of issues of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • (c) The Company will only issue and allot the Equity Securities during the 10% Placement Period. The approval under Resolution 6 for the issue of the Equity Securities will cease to be valid in the event that Shareholders approve a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2

Page 10

(a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking).

  • (d) The Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for the following purposes:

  • (1) as non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new resources, assets and investments (including expenses associated with such acquisitions). In such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by Listing Rule 7.1A.3; or

  • (2) for cash consideration in which case the Company intends to use the funds raised towards the acquisition of new resources, assets or investments (including expense associated with such acquisitions).

Although the Company may seek to issue Equity Securities for the acquisition of new resources, assets and investments (including expenses associated with such acquisitions), the particular resources, assets and investments which may be acquired by the Company have yet to be ascertained.

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

  • (e) The Company's allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Facility. The identity of the allottees of the Equity Securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factors including but not limited to the following:

  • (1) the purpose of the issue;

  • (2) alternative methods of raising funds that are available to the Company, including but not limited to, rights issue or other issue in which existing security holders can participate;

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

  • (4) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial situation and solvency of the Company; and

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

The allottees under the 10% Placement Facility have not been determined as at the date of this Notice but may include existing substantial Shareholders and/or new Shareholders who are not related parties or associates of a related party of the Company. Further, if the Company is successful in acquiring new resources, assets or investments, it is likely that the allottees under the 10% Placement Facility will be the vendors of the new resources, assets or investments.

  • (f) The Company previously obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 30 November 2012 ( 2012 AGM ). In accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A.6, the Company confirms that since the 2012 AGM, the Company has issued a total of 204,916,263 Equity Securities, representing 96.06% of the total number of Equity Securities on issue 12 months prior to the date of this Meeting, details of which are as follows:

  • (1) An issue on 3 December 2012 of 6,350,000 Options exercisable at $0.09 per Share on or before 1 March 2015 (subject to vesting conditions) to consultants and employees of the Company. The options were issued for nil consideration;

  • (2) An issue on 3 December 2012 of 14,000,000 Performance Rights to directors of the Company. The performance rights were issued for nil consideration;

7. Resolution 7 – Ratification of issue of 3,000,000 shares

The Shares were issued for nil consideration as a fee payable to ASOF for loaning the company $200,000 in September 2013.

Subject to certain exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 restricts a company from issuing or agreeing to issue Equity Securities in any 12 month period which amount to more than 15% of the company’s ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that period without shareholder approval.

The exception to this rule contained in Listing Rule 7.4 provides an issue made within the 15% limit will be treated as having been made with the approval of shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 if subsequently approved by shareholders, thereby ‘refreshing’ the company’s ability to issue shares within the 15% limit, and restoring the company’s ability to make placements within that limit (if that is thought desirable) without the need for shareholder approval.

While the Shares described in this Resolution 7 have been issued within the 15% limit, the Company seeks Shareholder ratification of the issue of those Shares for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.4 so that the Company’s ability to issue securities will be ‘refreshed’ and it will have flexibility to issue further securities should the need or opportunity arise.

In accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided to Shareholders to allow them to assess the ratification of the issue of the Shares the subject of this Resolution 7:

  • (a) the number of shares issued and allotted by the Company was 3,000,000;

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

The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.

Page 13

Subject to certain exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 restricts a company from issuing or agreeing to issue Equity Securities in any 12 month period which amount to more than 15% of the company’s ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that period without shareholder approval.

The exception to this rule contained in Listing Rule 7.4 provides an issue made within the 15% limit will be treated as having been made with the approval of shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 if subsequently approved by shareholders, thereby ‘refreshing’ the company’s ability to issue shares within the 15% limit, and restoring the company’s ability to make placements within that limit (if that is thought desirable) without the need for shareholder approval.

While the Shares described in this Resolution 8 have been issued within the 15% limit, the Company seeks Shareholder ratification of the issue of those Shares for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.4 so that the Company’s ability to issue securities will be ‘refreshed’ and it will have flexibility to issue further securities should the need or opportunity arise.

In accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided to Shareholders to allow them to assess the ratification of the issue of the Shares the subject of this Resolution 8:

Resolution 9 seeks the shareholder ratification for the issue of 36,000,000 Shares that the Company made on or about 30 October 2013.

Subject to certain exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 restricts a company from issuing or agreeing to issue Equity Securities in any 12 month period which amount to more than 15% of the company’s ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that period without shareholder approval.

The exception to this rule contained in Listing Rule 7.4 provides an issue made within the 15% limit will be treated as having been made with the approval of shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 if subsequently approved by shareholders, thereby ‘refreshing’ the company’s ability to issue shares within the 15% limit, and restoring the company’s ability to make placements within that limit (if that is thought desirable) without the need for shareholder approval.

While the Shares described in this Resolution 9 have been issued within the 15% limit, the Company seeks Shareholder ratification of the issue of those Shares for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.4 so that the Company’s ability to issue securities will be ‘refreshed’ and it will have flexibility to issue further securities should the need or opportunity arise.

The exception to this rule contained in Listing Rule 7.4 provides an issue made within the 15% limit will be treated as having been made with the approval of shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 if subsequently approved by shareholders, thereby ‘refreshing’ the company’s ability to issue shares within the 15% limit, and restoring the company’s ability to make placements within that limit (if that is thought desirable) without the need for shareholder approval.

Listing Rule 10.11 requires a company to obtain Shareholder approval by ordinary resolution prior to issuing or agreeing to issue Equity Securities to a related party of the Company, unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies.

For the purpose of this Notice and in accordance with section 228 of the Corporations Act, a related party of the Company includes:

  • (a) a Director; and

  • (b) an entity controlled by a Director.

Accordingly, Mr Malone is a related party for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.

Approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required in order to issue the Shares the subject of Resolution 11 as approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11.

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act regulates the provision of financial benefits to related parties by a public company. Section 208 of the Corporations Act prohibits a public company giving a financial benefit to a related party without obtaining the approval of the company's shareholders, unless one of a number of exceptions applies.

A "financial benefit" is defined in the Corporations Act in broad terms and expressly includes a public company issuing securities.

Section 211(1) of the Corporations Act provides that shareholder approval is not needed to give a financial benefit if:

  • (a) the benefit is remuneration to a related party as an officer or employee of the public company; and

  • (b) to give the remuneration would be reasonable given the circumstances.

As the issue of Shares to Mr Malone or his nominee is remuneration equivalent to the payment of $44,000, the issue of the Shares does not need Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E. Accordingly, the Company is not seeking Shareholder approval for the purposes of Chapter 2E in respect of the Shares proposed to be issued to Mr Malone. In the current circumstances, the Board has decided to preserve the Company’s existing cash reserves and accordingly, Mr Malone elected to take payment for services to the Company as equity.

  • (g) a voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice of Meeting; and

For the purpose of this Notice and in accordance with section 228 of the Corporations Act, a related party of the Company includes:

  • (a) a Director; and

  • (b) an entity controlled by a Director.

Accordingly, Mr Falconer is a related party for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.

Approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required in order to issue the Shares the subject of Resolution 12 as approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11.

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act regulates the provision of financial benefits to related parties by a public company. Section 208 of the Corporations Act prohibits a public company giving a financial benefit to a related party without obtaining the approval of the company's shareholders, unless one of a number of exceptions applies.

  • (a) the benefit is remuneration to a related party as an officer or employee of the public company; and

Page 17

  • (b) to give the remuneration would be reasonable given the circumstances.

As the issue of Shares to Mr Falconer or his nominee is remuneration equivalent to the payment of $23,333, the issue of the Shares does not need Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E. Accordingly, the Company is not seeking Shareholder approval for the purposes of Chapter 2E in respect of the Shares proposed to be issued to Mr Falconer. In the current circumstances, the Board has decided to preserve the Company’s existing cash reserves and accordingly, Mr Falconer elected to take payment for services to the Company as equity.

Instructions for Completing ‘Appointment of Proxy’ Form

  1. (Appointing a Proxy): A member entitled to attend and vote at a General Meeting is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies to attend and vote on a poll on their behalf. The appointment of a second proxy must be done on a separate copy of the Proxy Form. Where more than one proxy is appointed, such proxy must be allocated a proportion of the member's voting rights. If a member appoints two proxies and the appointment does not specify this proportion, each proxy may exercise half the votes. A duly appointed proxy need not be a member of the Company.

  2. (Direction to Vote): A member may direct a proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite each item of business. Where a box is not marked the proxy may vote as they choose. Where more than one box is marked on an item the vote will be invalid on that item.

3. (Signing Instructions):

  • (Individual): Where the holding is in one name, the member must sign.

  • (Joint Holding): Where the holding is in more than one name, all of the members should sign.

  • (Power of Attorney): If you have not already provided the Power of Attorney with the registry, please attach a certified photocopy of the Power of Attorney to this form when you return it.

  • (Companies): Where the company has a sole director who is also the sole company secretary, that person must sign. Where the company (pursuant to Section 204A of the Corporations Act) does not have a company secretary, a sole director can also sign alone. Otherwise, a director jointly with either another director or a company secretary must sign. Please sign in the appropriate place to indicate the office held.

  • (Attending the Meeting): Completion of a Proxy Form will not prevent individual members from attending the General Meeting in person if they wish. Where a member completes and lodges a valid Proxy Form and attends the General Meeting in person, then the proxy's authority to speak and vote for that member is suspended while the member is present at the General Meeting.

  • (Return of Proxy Form): To vote by proxy, please complete and sign the enclosed Proxy Form and return by:
