Shareholders should read this Explanatory Memorandum in full together with the accompanying Notice of General Meeting.
If you are in doubt about the action you should or should not take in relation to the Resolution, you should consult your financial or other professional adviser.
Words and expressions used in the Notice of General Meeting and in this Explanatory Memorandum are defined in the Glossary.
Unless otherwise stated, all currency amounts outlined in this Notice of General Meeting are expressed in Australian Dollars.
2. Resolution 1 – Ratification of proposed future issue of Shares in connection with a Convertible Loan Facility entered into with Santos Ventures Pty Ltd
2.1 General
Subject to specified exceptions, ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, without the approval of the holders of its ordinary securities, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.
The issue of convertible securities to Santos Ventures Pty Limited as described in section 2.2 below does not fit within any of the exceptions to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. As a result and because that issue has not yet been approved by Shareholders of the Company, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date of the issue of the convertible securities to Santos Ventures Pty Limited.
Listing Rule 7.4 allows Shareholders of the Company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If approved, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the Company's capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under that rule.
If Resolution 1 is not approved and the issue of the Shares under the proposed future issue of shares is not ratified, this will reduce the Company's capacity to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval during the 12 month period following the issue of the Shares under the proposed future issue of shares.
2.2 Resolution 1 – Ratification of proposed future issue of Shares in connection with a Convertible Loan Facility entered into with Santos Ventures Pty Ltd
On 20 June 2022, Mayur Resources Limited announced that it had executed an Expression of Interest (EOI) with Santos Ventures Pty Ltd (Santos), a subsidiary of Santos Limited (ASX:STO), to jointly develop a portfolio of nature-based carbon offset projects in Papua New Guinea (Carbon Projects).
Nature-based offsets projects protect, transform or restore land. In this way, nature absorbs more CO2 emissions from the atmosphere. These projects can lead to the marketing, trading and sale of carbon credits.
Under the terms of the EOI, Mayur has agreed to provide Santos with an exclusive period of 180 days (Exclusivity Period) during which Santos and Mayur are to negotiate in good faith and if agreed, enter into binding transaction documents (Transaction Documents) to jointly develop Carbon Projects. The Carbon Projects focus on preserving 1.4 million hectares of pristine rainforest in Papua New Guinea through avoided deforestation. Phase 1 development is already being progressed which includes up to 800,000 hectares in the Western Province. The EOI includes a framework for the future commercialisation of the Carbon Projects contingent on executing Transaction Documents along with remaining confirmatory due diligence.
In addition, Santos has provided Mayur with a US$3 million facility on 16 June 2022 to, amongst other
5
things, fund ongoing detailed feasibility and landholder consent work on the Carbon Projects. If the Transaction Documents are not entered before the conclusion of the Exclusivity Period, this loan will convert into 38,786,149 fully paid ordinary shares in the Company (Convertible Securities) based on a 30day Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) calculated three years from the date of execution of the EOI.
Based on the 30 trading day VWAP for the 30 trading day period immediately prior to the execution of the facility of $0.1120 per Share, this would result in a total of 38,786,149 Shares being issued.
The actual number of shares to be issued will be calculated at the time of conversion.
Under Mayur’s current placement capacity limits, Mayur has sufficient capacity to issue 24,851,442 Shares.
As noted earlier, if the Transaction Documents are not entered before the conclusion of the Exclusivity Period (being 17 December 2022), the Convertible Securities issued under the loan facility on 16 June 2022 will convert on the date that is 5 business days after the third anniversary of the execution of the EOI (provided no shareholder approval is required) or such other date as the parties may agree to issue ordinary fully paid shares in Mayur based on a 30-day Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) calculated three years from the date of execution of the EOI (being 20 June 2025).
This resolution seeks approval for the issue of 38,786,149 convertible securities, which, as described above, could convert into fully paid ordinary shares in the Company. The Company will be able to rely on Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 9 in respect of the conversion of the convertible security into fully paid ordinary shares on 20 June 2025 without the need to obtain further approval of Shareholders.
3. Resolution 2 – Ratification of previous allotment of unlisted options in connection with a Convertible Loan Facility entered into with funds managed by Tribeca Investment Partners
- 3.1 General
Subject to specified exceptions, ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, without the approval of the holders of its ordinary securities, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.
The issue of unlisted options to Equity Trustees Ltd as the responsible entity for Tribeca Global Natural Resources Fund ARSN 607 181 715 and Tribeca Global Natural Resources Limited ACN 627 596 418 as described in section 3.2 below does not fit within any of the exceptions to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. As a result and because that issue has not yet been approved by Shareholders of the Company, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date of the issue of options to Equity Trustees Ltd as the responsible entity for Tribeca Global Natural Resources Fund and Tribeca Global Natural Resources Limited.
Listing Rule 7.4 allows Shareholders of the Company to approve an issue of equity securities (including options) after they have been made or agreed to be made. If approved, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the Company's capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under that rule.
If Resolution 2 is not approved and the issue of the unlisted options is not ratified, this will reduce the Company's capacity to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval during the 12 month period following the issue of the unlisted options.
3.2 Resolution 2 – Ratification of previous allotment of unlisted options in connection with a Convertible Loan Facility entered into with funds managed by Tribeca Investment Partners
On 20 December 2021, Mayur Resources Limited announced that it had executed Loan Facilities of $3 million with Equity Trustees Ltd as the responsible entity for Tribeca Global Natural Resources Fund ARSN 607 181 715 and Tribeca Global Natural Resources Limited ACN 627 596 418, with a term of 2 years, with an interest rate of 8% per annum, with interest payable quarterly in arrears. The facilities were to be utilised for general corporate purposes and to progress Mayur’s Carbon Estate projects to be verified under the United Nation’s Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) program in PNG.
The Loan Facilities had full option coverage via the issue of 10,000,000 3-year unlisted options over fully paid ordinary shares in the Company with a strike price of A$0.30 per Share being a 50% premium to the December 2021 capital raise placement price of A$0.20 cents per Share. Proceeds from the exercise of the options were to be intended to be used to repay the Loan Facility.
The unlisted options were issued to Equity Trustees Ltd as the responsible entity for Tribeca Global Natural
6
Resources Fund ARSN 607 181 715 and Tribeca Global Natural Resources Limited ACN 627 596 418 on 31 May 2022, and have an expiry date of 21 December 2024.
The $3 million loan facility was repaid in full on 20 June 2022.
This resolution seeks approval by Shareholders for the issue of the 10,000,000 unlisted options with a 3 year term expiring on 21 December 2024, and a strike price of $0.30 per Share.
4. Resolution 3 – Ratification of previous allotment of unlisted options in connection with a Mandate Agreement entered into with Fivemark Partners
4.1 General
Subject to specified exceptions, ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, without the approval of the holders of its ordinary securities, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.
The issue of unlisted options to Fivemark Capital Pty Limited as described in section 4.2 below does not fit within any of the exceptions to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. As a result and because that issue has not yet been approved by Shareholders of the Company, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date of the issue of options to Fivemark Capital Pty Limited.
Listing Rule 7.4 allows Shareholders of the Company to approve an issue of equity securities (including options) after they have been made or agreed to be made. If approved, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the Company's capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under that rule.
If Resolution 3 is not approved and the issue of the unlisted options is not ratified, this will reduce the Company's capacity to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval during the 12 month period following the issue of the unlisted options.
4.2 Resolution 3 – Ratification of previous allotment of unlisted options in connection with a Mandate Agreement entered into with Fivemark Partners
On 23 February 2022, Mayur Resources Limited executed a Mandate Agreement with Fivemark Capital Pty Ltd (Fivemark) for the provision by Fivemark of strategic, investor relations, market and media communications advice services to the Company.
The agreement is for a period of 12 months which is capable of being extended by mutual agreement between the parties.
Mayur and Fivemark agreed on a fee structure comprising a cash component of $5,500 plus GST per month, and an equity fee component comprising 1,200,000 unlisted options over fully paid ordinary shares in the Company with a strike price of $0.45 per Share and an expiry date of 30 November 2024.
On the anniversary of the Commencement Date (defined below) for as long as the agreement remains in place, Fivemark will be issued additional equity/options component of the fee structure, the amount which will be reasonably agreed between the parties. As the number of options that will be issued in this regard is to be agreed on each anniversary and is not yet known, the issue of these unlisted options will not be covered by the Shareholder approval being sought via Resolution 3 and any later issue of unlisted options that is agreed between the Company and Fivemark will reduce the Company's capacity to issue equity securities during the 12 month period following the issue of such unlisted options unless further Shareholder approval is obtained once the number of options to be issued is known.
Either party may terminate the Mandate Agreement on giving 30 days notice. If the Mandate Agreement is terminated prior to six months after the Commencement Date, all base fees (see above for the cash component of the fee) payable to Firemark across the first six months of the Mandate Agreement (net of any base fees already paid) become due and payable by Mayur. In addition the equity component of the fee will be prorated down to 50%, which is to be effected by the cancellation of 0.6 million of the 1.2 million unlisted options comprising the equity fee. Mayur and Fivemark consider that the Agreement has been entered into on a commercial terms, on arms length basis. The Company confirms that Firemark is not a related party of the Company, members of the Company’s key management personnel, or substantial holders of the Company.
Under the Agreement, Fivemark warrants that none of these unlisted options will be exercised within six months from the commencement date of the Mandate Agreement, being 1 March 2022 (Commencement Date), and that after six months from the Commencement Date of the Mandate Agreement only a
7
maximum of 50% will be exercised with a further maximum of 50% exercise after 12 months from the Commencement Date.
The unlisted options were issued to Fivemark on 3 May 2022 and expire on 30 November 2024.
This resolution seeks approval by Shareholders for the issue of the 1,200,000 unlisted options over fully paid ordinary shares in the Company expiring on 30 November 2024, and a strike price of $0.45 per Share.
