Explanatory Memorandum

This Explanatory Memorandum is intended to provide shareholders with sufficient information to assess the merits of the resolutions contained in the accompanying Notice of Annual General Meeting of the Company.

The Directors recommend that shareholders read this Explanatory Memorandum in full before making any decision in relation to a resolution.

RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF THE REMUNERATION REPORT

The Remuneration Report is in the Directors Report section of the Company's Annual Report.

By way of summary, the Remuneration Report:

  • a) explains the Company's remuneration policy and the process for determining the remuneration of its directors and executive officers;
  • b) addresses the relationship between the Company's remuneration policy and the Company's performance; and
  • c) sets out remuneration details for each director and each of the Company's executives named in the Remuneration Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2012.

The key management personnel of the Company (which includes each of the directors and executives named in the Company's 2012 Remuneration Report) and their closely related parties will not be able to vote as your proxy on Resolution 1 unless you tell them how to vote. If you intend to appoint a member of the key management personnel or one of their closely related parties as your proxy, please ensure that you direct them how to vote on Resolution 1.

If the Chairman of the meeting is appointed, or taken to be appointed, as a proxy, the shareholder can direct the Chairman of the meeting to vote for or against, or to abstain from voting on, Resolution 1 by marking the appropriate box opposite Resolution 1 on the proxy form. However, if the Chairman of the meeting is the proxy and the relevant shareholder does not mark any of the boxes opposite Resolution 1, the relevant shareholder will be deemed to have directed the Chairman to vote in favour of Resolution 1.

RESOLUTION 2 - RE-ELECTION OF JOHN KARAJAS AS DIRECTOR

Mr John Karajas - BSc (Hons) MAIG MPESA

Mr Karajas is an exploration geologist with over 30 years of experience in both the mining and oil industries. After graduating from the University of Western Australia with a BSc (Hons) in 1970, he gained his grounding in the mining industry by working for mining companies, Falconbridge, Anaconda and Hanna Mining. This period extended through to 1982 and was predominantly spent in Western Australia but included three years in Mt Isa. Commodities explored for include nickel, copper/lead/zinc, gold, phosphate, taconitic iron ore, tin/tantalite and lignite/oil shale. Between 1982 and 1985 he gained his initial experience in oil exploration by working for Eagle Corporation and IEDC (Australia). This period was spent in working on sedimentary basins in Western Australia and included basin studies, well-site geology, and other duties related to oil and gas exploration. From 1986 onwards, he has worked predominantly as a consultant/ contract geologist for a wide range of mining and oil industry clients, both within Australia and abroad. He is currently a Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists.

The Board believes that Mr Karajas has performed the duties and responsibilities of a director diligently and professionally and in the best interests of all shareholders.
