If you receive more than one SPP Offer (for example because you hold Shares in more than one capacity), you may only apply for one parcel of Securities up to a maximum application amount of $3,000 (which may be subject to scale back in the event of oversubscriptions). The Company reserves the right to reject any application for Securities under the SPP Offer to the extent it considers that the application (whether alone or in conjunction with other applications) does not comply with these requirements.
Payment for the Securities must be made in full:
-
(a) by cheque made payable to “ Kin Mining N.L. ” and crossed “Not Negotiable”; or
-
(b) by BPAY®.

Kin Mining N.L.
C/- Advanced Share Registry Services
PO Box 1156

-

It is your responsibility to ensure that your BPAY® payment is received by the Share Registry by no later than 4:00pm (WST) on the SPP Offer Closing Date. You should be aware that your financial institution may implement earlier cut-off times with regards to electronic payment and you should therefore take this into consideration when making payment.

3 PURPOSE AND EFFECT OF THE OFFERS
3.1 Purpose of the Offers
SPP Offer and General Offer
The purpose of the SPP Offer (and in the event the SPP Offer is not fully subscribed the General Offer) is to raise up to $2,000,000.
The funds raised from the SPP Offer (and in the event the SPP Offer is not fully subscribed the General Offer) are planned to be used in accordance with the table set out below:
| Item | Proceeds of the SPP Offer | $ | % |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. | Expenses of the SPP Offer1 | 92,290 | 4.6 |
| 2. | Completion of Pre-feasibility Study, JORC 2012 resource upgrades and targeted drilling |
1,500,000 | 75.0 |
| 3. | Working capital | 407,710 | 20.4 |
| Total | 2,000,000 | 100 |
Notes:
1. Refer to Section 6.8 for further details relating to the estimated expenses of the SPP Offer.
In the event the Company raises less than the full subscription the shortfall of funds will first reduce working capital and then costs in relation to targeted drilling and JORC 2012 resource upgrades and lastly expenses of the SPP Offer. In the event the Company raises less than the expenses of the SPP Offer it will pay for the balance of those expenses out of existing cash reserves.
If the SPP Offer (and in the event the SPP Offer is not fully subscribed the General Offer) raises less than the maximum of $2,000,000, the Company may look to supplement the funds raised with alternative sources of funding. The successful raising of $396,600 from the placement of Shares completed by the Company as announced to ASX on 14 June 2015 will enable the Company to commence work on the Pre-Feasibility Study and work on the Company’s remaining objectives will need to be scaled back or deferred until additional funding is obtained.
The above table is a statement of current intentions as of the date of this Prospectus. As with any budget, intervening events (including exploration success or failure) and new circumstances have the potential to affect the manner in which the funds are ultimately applied. The Board reserves the right to alter the way funds are applied on this basis.
Options Offer
The primary purpose of the Options Offer is to remove any trading restrictions that may have otherwise attached to Shares issued upon exercise of the Options if the Options the subject of the Options Offer had been issued without disclosure under Part 6D.2 of the Corporations Act.

This will give Optionholders the opportunity to exercise their Options prior to the date for determining entitlements to participate in any such issue.
-
(h) If from time to time on or prior to the Expiry Date the Company makes an issue of shares to the holders of ordinary fully paid shares in the company by way of capitalisation of profits or reserves (a “ bonus issue ”), then upon exercise of their options, Optionholders will be entitled to have issued to them (in addition to the shares which would otherwise be issued to them upon such exercise) the number of shares of the class which would have been issued to them under that bonus issue (“ bonus shares ”) if on the record date for the bonus issue they had been registered as the holder of the number of shares of which they would have been registered as holder if, immediately prior to that date, they had duly exercised their options and the shares the subject of such exercise had been duly allotted and issued to them. The bonus shares will be paid up by the Company out of profits or reserves (as the case may be) in the same manner as was applied in relation to the bonus issue and upon issue will rank pari passu in all respects with the other shares allotted upon exercise of the Options.
-
(i) There is no right to a change in the exercise price of the Options or to the number of shares over which the Options are exercisable in the event of a new issue of capital (other than a bonus issue) during the currency of the Options.
-
(j) In the event of any reorganisation of the issued capital of the Company on or prior to the Expiry Date, the rights of an Optionholder will be changed to the extent necessary to comply with the applicable ASX Listing Rules in force at the time of the reorganisation.
4.2 Shares
Full details of the rights and liabilities attaching to the Shares are:
-
detailed in the Constitution, a copy of which can be inspected, free of charge, at the registered office of the Company during normal business hours; and
-
in certain circumstances, regulated by the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules and the general law.
The following is a summary of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to the Shares. This summary is not exhaustive and does not constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. To obtain such a statement, persons should seek independent legal advice.
(a) Voting Rights
Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares, at a general meeting of members every member has one vote on a show of hands and one vote per Share on a poll. Voting may be in person or by proxy, attorney or representative.
(b) Dividends
Subject to the rights of holders of shares issued with any special rights (at present there are none), the profits of the Company which the Board may from time to time determine to distribute by way of dividend are divisible to each share of a class on which the Board resolves to pay a dividend in proportion to the amount for the time being paid on a share bears to the total issue price of the share. All Shares currently on issue and the shares to be issued under this Prospectus are fully paid Shares.
(c) Future Issues of Securities
Subject to the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules, the Directors may issue, grant options over, or otherwise dispose of unissued shares in the Company at the times and on the terms that the Directors think proper and a share may be issued with preferential or special rights.
(d) Transfer of Shares
A shareholder may transfer Shares by a market transfer in accordance with any computerised or electronic system established or recognised by ASX for the purpose of facilitating transfers in Shares or by an instrument in writing in a form approved by ASX or the Board.
(e) Meetings and Notices
Each shareholder is entitled to receive notice of, and to attend, general meetings for the Company and to receive all notices, accounts and other documents required to be sent to shareholders under the Constitution, the Corporations Act or the Listing Rules.
Shareholders may requisition meetings in accordance with the Corporations Act.
(f) Election of Directors
There must be a minimum of 3 Directors. At every annual general meeting one third of the Directors (rounded to the nearest whole number) must retire from office. If the Company has less than 3 Directors, one Director must retire from office together with any Director who would have held office for more than 3 years if that Director remains in office until the next general meeting. These retirement rules do not apply to certain appointments including the managing director.
(g) Indemnities
To the extent permitted by law the Company must indemnify each past and present Director and secretary against any liability incurred by that person as an officer of the Company and any legal costs incurred in defending an action in respect of such liability.
(h) Winding Up
If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the sanction of a special resolution of the shareholders:
- divide the assets of the Company among the members in kind;
for that purpose fix the value of assets and decide how the division is to be carried out as between the members and different class of members; and
vest assets of the Company in trustees on any trusts for the benefit of the members as the liquidator thinks appropriate.
(i) Shareholder Liability
As the Shares under the Prospectus are fully paid Shares, they are not subject to any calls for money by the Directors and will therefore not become liable for forfeiture.
(j) Alteration to the Constitution
The Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of shareholders present and voting at the general meeting. At least 28 days written notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution must be given.
(k) Listing Rules
If the Company is admitted to trading on the Official List, then despite anything in the Constitution, if the Listing Rules prohibit an act being done, the act must not be done. Nothing in the Constitution prevents an act being done that the Listing Rules require to be done. If the Listing Rules require an act to be done or not to be done, authority is given for that act to be done or not to be done (as the case may be). If the Listing Rules require the Constitution to contain a provision and it does not contain such a provision, the Constitution is deemed to contain that provision. If the Listing Rules require the Constitution not to contain a provision and it contains such a provision, the Constitution is deemed not to contain that provision. If a provision of the Constitution is inconsistent with the Listing Rules, the Constitution is deemed not to contain that provision to the extent of the inconsistency.
5 RISK FACTORS
5.1 Introduction
The Securities offered under this Prospectus are considered highly speculative. An investment in the Company is not risk free and the Directors strongly recommend potential investors to consider the risk factors described below, together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus and to consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Securities pursuant to this Prospectus.
There are specific risks which relate directly to the Company’s business. In addition, there are other general risks, many of which are largely beyond the control of the Company and the Directors. The risks identified in this section, or other risk factors, may have a material impact on the financial performance of the Company and the market price of the Securities.
The following is not intended to be an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed.
5.2 Company specific
Contracts Risk
The Company currently has contracting arrangements with third party contractors for exploration services conducted on its projects. The Directors are unable to predict the risk of:
-
(a) financial failure or default of the contractor or any other third party to a contract for which the Company is a party, or
-
(b) insolvency or other managerial failure by any of the operators and contractors used the Company in its mining activities, or
-
(c) insolvency or other managerial failure by any of the other service providers used by the Company or operators for any activity, or
-
(d) mechanical, other operating or commercial failure by the contractor or of the contractors’ equipment or services, which are used by or provided to the Company.
The occurrence of such an event may result in alterations to the exploration plans of the Company which may, in turn, adversely affect the Company’s operations.
5.3 Industry specific
Exploration and appraisal
The Company holds interests in exploration projects located in Western Australia which are at various stages of exploration and appraisal.
Exploration is a high risk activity that requires large amounts of expenditure over extended periods of time. There can be no guarantee that planned exploration and evaluation programs will lead to positive exploration and evaluation results and the delineation of a commercial deposit. Even if an apparently viable reserve is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.
The exploration and appraisal costs of the Company are based on certain assumptions with respect to the method and timing of exploration. By their nature, these estimates and assumptions are subject to significant uncertainties and, accordingly, the actual costs may materially differ from these estimates and assumptions. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the cost estimates and the underlying
assumptions will be realised in practice, which may materially and adversely affect the Company’s viability.
Title and Native Title
Interests in tenements in Australia are governed by Federal and State legislation and are evidenced by the granting of licences or leases. Each licence or lease is for a specific term and carries with it annual expenditure and reporting commitments, as well as other conditions requiring compliance. Consequently, the Company could lose title to or its interest in its tenements if conditions are not met or if insufficient funds are available to meet expenditure commitments as and when they arise.
It is also possible that the tenements in which the Company has an interest in or will in the future acquire such an interest in, are areas over which legitimate common law native title rights of Aboriginal Australians exist. If native title rights do exist, the ability of the Company to gain access to tenements (through obtaining consent of any relevant landowner), or to progress from the exploration phase to the development and mining phases of operations may be adversely affected.
Environmental
The operations and proposed activities of the Company are subject to laws and regulations concerning the environment. As with most exploration projects and mining operations, the Company’s activities are expected to have an impact on the environment, particularly if advanced exploration or mine development proceeds. It is the Company’s intention to conduct its activities to the highest standard of environmental obligation, including compliance with all environmental laws.
Mining operations have inherent risks and liabilities associated with safety and damage to the environment and the disposal of waste products occurring as a result of mineral exploration and production. The occurrence of any such safety or environmental incident could delay production or increase production costs. Events, such as unpredictable rainfall or bushfires may impact on the Company’s ongoing compliance with environmental legislation, regulations and licences. Significant liabilities could be imposed on the Company for damages, clean up costs or penalties in the event of certain discharges into the environment, environmental damage caused by previous operations or noncompliance with environmental laws or regulations.
Operations
The operations of the Company may be affected by various factors, including failure to locate or identify mineral deposits, adverse outcomes from project development studies, failure to achieve predicted grades in exploration and mining, operational and technical difficulties encountered in mining, difficulties in constructing, commissioning and operating plant and equipment, mechanical failure or plant breakdown, unanticipated metallurgical problems which may affect extraction costs, adverse weather conditions, industrial and environmental accidents, industrial disputes and unexpected shortages or increases in the costs of consumables, spare parts, plant and equipment.
No assurances can be given that the Company will achieve commercial viability through the successful exploration and/or mining of its tenement interests. Until the Company is able to realise value from its projects, it is likely to incur ongoing operating losses.
Resource estimates
Resources estimates are expressions of judgement based on knowledge, experience and industry practice. Estimates which were valid when originally calculated may alter significantly when new information or techniques become available. In addition, by their very nature, resource estimates are imprecise and depend to some extent on interpretations, which may prove to be inaccurate. As further
information becomes available through additional fieldwork and analysis, the estimates are likely to change. This may result in alterations to development and mining plans which may, in turn, adversely affect the Company’s operations.
Commodity Price and Exchange Rate Risks
If the Company achieves success leading to mineral production, the revenue it will derive through the sale of commodities exposes the potential income of the Company to commodity price and exchange rate risks.
The price of commodities is affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company such as supply and demand for the relevant commodity, technological advancements, forward selling activities, changes in global economies as well as other global or regional political, social or economic events. Future production from the Company’s properties, is dependent upon the price of the relevant commodity being at a sufficient level to make these properties economic. Future price declines in the market value of commodities could cause the development of, and eventually the commercial production from the Company’s properties to be rendered uneconomic. Depending on the price of the relevant commodities, the Company could be forced to discontinue production or development and may lose its interest in, or may be forced to sell, some of its properties. There is no assurance that, even as commercial quantities of commodities are produced, a profitable market will exist for them.
Furthermore, international prices of various commodities are denominated in United States dollars, whereas the income and expenditure of the Company are and will be taken into account in Australian dollars, exposing the Company to the fluctuations and volatility of the rate of exchange between the United States dollar and the Australian dollar as determined in international markets.
Uninsured Loss and Liability
Exploration for and development of minerals involves hazards and risks that could result in the Company incurring losses and liabilities to third parties.
While the Company may obtain insurance against these risks, the nature of these risks is such that liability could exceed policy limits or could be excluded from coverage. There are also risks against which the Company cannot insure against or which it may elect not to insure against. The potential costs which could be associated with any liabilities not covered by insurance, or in excess of insurance coverage, or compliance with applicable laws and regulations may cause substantial delays and require significant capital outlays, adversely affecting the future earnings and competitive position of the Company and potentially its financial condition and results of operations.
No assurance can be given that the Company’s insurance will be available at economically feasible premiums or at all, or that it will provide sufficient coverage for losses related to these or other risks and hazards.
If the Company incurs losses or liabilities which are not covered by its insurance policies, the funds available for exploration and development will be reduced and the value or tenure of the Company's assets may be at risk or both.
5.4 General risks
Additional requirements for capital
The Company will require further financing in addition to amounts recently raised. Any additional equity financing will dilute shareholdings, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictions on financing
and operating activities. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be required to reduce the scope of its operations and scale back its exploration and development programmes as the case may be. There is however no guarantee that the Company will be able to secure any additional funding or be able to secure funding on terms favourable to the Company.
Competition risk
The industry in which the Company will be involved is subject to domestic and global competition. Although the Company will undertake all reasonable due diligence in its business decisions and operations, the Company will have no influence or control over the activities or actions of its competitors, which activities or actions may, positively or negatively, affect the operating and financial performance of the Company’s projects and business.
Government policy changes
Government policies are subject to review and changes from time to time. Such changes are likely to be beyond the control of the Company and may affect ownership of mineral interests, taxation, royalties, land access, labour relations, and exploration, development and mining activities of the Company.
At present the Company is not aware of any reviews or changes that would affect its projects. However, changes in community attitudes on matters such as taxation, competition policy, environment and indigenous lands right issues may bring about reviews and possibly changes in government policies. There is a risk that such changes may affect the Company's exploration plans or its rights and obligations in respect of its tenements. Any such government action may also require increased capital or operating expenditures and could prevent or delay certain operations by the Company.
Reliance on and availability of key personnel
The Company's prospects depend in part on the ability of its executive officers, senior management and key consultants to operate effectively, both independently and as a group. To manage its growth, the Company must attract and retain additional highly qualified management, technical, sales and marketing personnel and continue to implement and improve operational, financial and management information systems. Investors must be willing to rely to a significant extent on management's discretion and judgement, as well as the expertise and competence of outside contractors. While the Company believes that it will be successful in attracting and retaining qualified personnel, there can be no assurance of such success.
Securities market conditions
Securities market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s quoted securities regardless of the Company’s operating performance. Securities market conditions are affected by many factors such as:
-
(a) general economic outlook;
-
(b) introduction of tax reform or other new legislation;
-
(c) interest rates and inflation rates;
-
(d) changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;
-
(e) the demand for, and supply of, capital; and
-
(f) terrorism or other hostilities.
The market price of securities can fall as well as rise and may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general and resource exploration stocks in particular. Neither
the Company nor the Directors warrant the future performance of the Company or any return on an investment in the Company.
Dividends
Any future determination as to the payment of dividends by the Company will be at the discretion of the Directors and will depend on the financial condition of the Company, future capital requirements and general business and other factors considered relevant by the Directors. No assurance in relation to the payment of dividends or franking credits attaching to dividends can be given by the Company.
Taxation
The acquisition and disposal of Securities will have tax consequences, which will differ depending on the individual financial affairs of each investor. All potential investors in the Company are urged to obtain independent financial advice about the consequences of acquiring Securities from a taxation viewpoint and generally.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company, its officers and each of their respective advisors accept no liability and responsibility with respect to the taxation consequences of subscribing for Securities under this Prospectus.
Speculative investment
The above list of risk factors ought not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The above factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the Securities offered under this Prospectus.
Therefore, the Securities to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those Securities.
Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Securities pursuant to this Prospectus.
6 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
6.1 Litigation
As at the date of this Prospectus, the Company is not involved in any legal proceedings and the Directors are not aware of any legal proceedings pending or threatened against the Company.
6.2 Continuous Disclosure Obligations
The Company is a “disclosing entity” (as defined in section 111AC of the Corporations Act) for the purposes of section 713 of the Corporations Act and, as such, is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company is required to continuously
disclose any information it has to the market which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Company’s securities.
This Prospectus is a “transaction specific prospectus”. In general terms a “transaction specific prospectus” is only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of securities on a company and the rights attaching to the securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses or prospects of the issuing company.
This Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Investors should therefore have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest.
Having taken such precautions and having made such enquires as are reasonable, the Company believes that it has complied with the general and specific requirements of ASX as applicable from time to time throughout the 3 months before the issue of this Prospectus which required the Company to notify ASX of information about specified events or matters as they arise for the purpose of ASX making that information available to the stock market conducted by ASX.
The Company will continue to publicly release through ASX price sensitive information before it is disclosed to shareholders and market participants. Distribution by the Company of other information to shareholders and market participants will also continue to be managed through disclosure to the ASX. In addition, the Company will continue to post this information on its website after the ASX confirms an announcement has been made, with the aim of making the information readily accessible to the widest audience.
Information that is already in the public domain has not been reported in this Prospectus other than that which is considered necessary to make this Prospectus complete.
The Company, as a disclosing entity under the Corporations Act, states that:
-
(a) it is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations;
-
(b) copies of documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company (not being documents referred to in section 1274(2)(a) of the Corporations Act) may be obtained from, or inspected at, the offices of the ASIC; and
-
(c) it will provide a copy of each of the following documents, free of charge, to any person on request between the date of issue of this Prospectus and the Closing Date:
-
(i) the annual financial report most recently lodged by the Company with the ASIC;
-
(ii) any half-year financial report lodged by the Company with the ASIC after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC; and
-
(iii) any continuous disclosure documents given by the Company to ASX in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules as referred to in section 674(1) of the Corporations Act after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC.
Copies of all documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company can be inspected at the registered office of the Company during normal office hours.
Details of documents lodged by the Company with ASX since the date of lodgement of the Company’s latest annual financial report and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC are set out in the table below.

Remuneration
The remuneration of an executive Director is decided by the Board, without the affected executive Director participating in that decision-making process.

The determination of non-executive Directors’ remuneration within that maximum will be made by the Board having regard to the inputs and value to the Company of the respective contributions by each non-executive Director.
A Director may be paid fees or other amounts (i.e. non-cash performance incentives such as Options, subject to any necessary Shareholder approval) as the other Directors determine where a Director performs special duties or otherwise performs services outside the scope of the ordinary duties of a Director. In addition, Directors are also entitled to be paid reasonable travelling, hotel and other expenses incurred by them respectively in or about the performance of their duties as Directors.
The following table shows the total (and proposed) annual remuneration paid to both executive and non-executive directors.

6.10 Clearing House Electronic Sub-Register System (“CHESS”) and Issuer Sponsorship
The Company will not be issuing share or option certificates. The Company is a participant in CHESS, for those investors who have, or wish to have, a sponsoring stockbroker. Investors who do not wish to participate through CHESS will be issuer sponsored by the Company. Because the sub-registers are electronic, ownership of securities can be transferred without having to rely upon paper documentation.
Electronic registers mean that the Company will not be issuing certificates to investors. Instead, investors will be provided with a statement (similar to a bank account statement) that sets out the number of Securities issued to them under this Prospectus. The notice will also advise holders of their Holder Identification Number or Security Holder Reference Number and explain, for future reference, the sale and purchase procedures under CHESS and issuer sponsorship.
6.11 Privacy Act
If you complete an application for Securities, you will be providing personal information to the Company. The Company collects, holds and will use that information to assess your application, service your needs as a Shareholder, facilitate distribution payments and corporate communications to you as a Shareholder and carry out administration.
The information may also be used from time to time and disclosed to persons inspecting the register, bidders for your securities in the context of takeovers, regulatory bodies, including the Australian Taxation Office, authorised securities brokers, print service providers, mail houses and the Share Registry.
You can access, correct and update the personal information that we hold about you. Please contact the Company if you wish to do so at the relevant contact numbers set out in this Prospectus.
Collection, maintenance and disclosure of certain personal information is governed by legislation including the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (as amended), the Corporations Act and certain rules such as the ASX Settlement Operating Rules. You should note that if you do not provide the information required on the application for Securities, the Company may not be able to accept or process your application.
