Note 4: Resolution 4: Proposed Grant of Options to Consultant (Robert Wright)
Background
The Board considers that the grant of Options to a consultant is a cost effective method of aligning the interests of consultants and shareholders whilst preserving the Company's cash reserves.
The Board resolved on 14 October 2021 to grant (subject to Shareholder approval) 500,000 unlisted Options to a consultant.
As at the date the Board resolved to issue Options to the consultant the 5-day VWAP of the Company's shares (ASX Code: PKO) was $0.0226 per share.
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, 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 effect of Resolution 4 will be to allow the Company to issue the consultant options during the period of one month after the Meeting (or a longer period, if allowed by ASX), without using the Company's 15% annual placement capacity.
In the event that shareholders do not approve the grant of the consultant options, the options will still be granted and the Company's 15% annual placement capacity will be used for this purpose.
Application of Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.3
In compliance with Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.3 the following information is provided in relation to resolution 4 on the Notice of Meeting.
- (a) The maximum number of Options which will be issued under the resolution is 500,000 Options in total as specified in resolution 4.
- (b) The date by which Peako will issue the Options will be not later than 26 December 2021 which is not later than one (1) month after the date of the Meeting.
- (c) The Options are issued free of cost as incentive Options.
- (d) The person to whom the options will be granted is Robert Wright.

(e) The purpose of the grant is to incentivise the consultant with a cost effective method of aligning the interests of consultants and shareholders whilst preserving the Company's cash reserves.
Terms of options
The proposed terms of grant of options are as follows:
- a) Each of the 500,000 options granted shall, subject to the terms and conditions set out below, entitle the holder to subscribe for one ordinary share in Peako Limited (the Company) upon the payment of the Exercise Price.
- b) The Exercise Price of the options is $0.06 (6 cents)
- c) The options will lapse at 5.00pm (AEDT) on 25 November 2024 (Expiry Date) subject to the provisions of (h).
- d) The options are not transferable to any person other than an Associate of the grantee (within the meaning of the Corporations Act 2001) without the prior approval of the Board of Directors of the Company.
- e) There are no participating rights or entitlements inherent in these options and holders of the options will not be entitled to participate in new issues of capital that may be offered to shareholders during the currency of the option or in the payment of any dividend without having exercised the option prior to the record date to determine entitlements to any such entitlements or distributions.
- f) In the event of any re-organisation (including reconstruction, consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return of capital) of the issued capital of the Company, the options will be reorganised in respect to number and exercise price as required by the Listing Rules, but in all other respects the terms of exercise will remain unchanged.
- g) Contingent upon the holder's continuing involvement with the Company in the form of ongoing employment and or consultancy arrangements, the options are exerciseable at any time during the period and on or before the Expiry Date (subject to the right set out in provision (h)), by the delivery to the registered office of the Company of a notice in writing (Notice) stating the intention of the optionholder to exercise the option accompanied by an Option Certificate or Holding Statement and a cheque or electronic transfer made payable to the Company for the subscription monies for the shares to be issued on exercise of the options the subject of the Notice. The Notice and cheque or electronic transfer must be received by the Company during the exercise period. An exercise of only some options shall not affect the rights of the optionholder to the balance of the options held by him.
- h) In the event that the holder ceases involvement with the Company before the Expiry Date, then the holder shall have the right for a further period of three months from the date of cessation of ongoing employment, and or consultancy arrangement, in which to exercise the options, provided that such extended period shall be limited to a date no later than the Expiry Date (Extended Expiry Date). In this circumstance, the options will lapse on the Extended Expiry Date. The decision as to the date of cessation of involvement with the Company and the end of the Extended Expiry Date shall be a matter at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company.

- i) The Company shall allot the resultant shares and deliver a statement of shareholdings with a Holders' Identification Number within 5 business days of exercise of the options.
- j) The shares allotted shall rank, from the date of allotment, equally with the existing ordinary shares of the Company in all respects.
- k) No monies are required for the grant of the Options.
- l) In accordance with the requirements of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 the Company advises that it will disregard any votes cast on Resolution 4 on the Notice of Meeting by the person named in paragraph (d) above and any associates of that person.
Note 5: Resolution 5 – Grant of Options to director - Dr PA Kitto
Background
On 20 September 2021 the Company appointed Dr Paul Kitto as Non-Executive Director. In conjunction with Dr Kitto's appointment the Company agreed to issue 3,000,000 incentive options to Dr Kitto.
The Board has determined that the grant of Options to Dr Kitto proposed by Resolution 5 constitutes an important incentive to motivate and reward the performance of Dr Kitto in his role. In addition, by providing incentive remuneration in the form of options, the company retains that additional cash for use in other aspects of its operations. The Board acknowledges the issue of options to Dr Kitto who is a non-executive Director is contrary to Recommendation 8.2 of the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations. However, the Board considers the issue of the Options to Dr Kitto reasonable in the circumstances, given the necessity to attract and retain the highest calibre of professionals to the Company, whilst maintaining the Company's cash reserves.
Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required in order to issue the Director Options to the Related Parties as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of Director Options to the Related Parties will not be included in the 15% calculation of the Company's annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
Accordingly, the grant of the Director Options to Dr Kitto will not reduce the Company's 15% capacity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.
In the event that shareholders do not approve the grant of the director options, the options will not be granted. No other form of replacement incentive is currently available to directors should the options not be granted.
As at the date the Board resolved to issue Options to the director the 5-day VWAP of the Company's shares was $0.0226 per share.
Terms of options
The proposed terms of grant of options are as follows:
a) Each of the 3,000.000 options granted shall, subject to the terms and conditions set out below, entitle the holder to subscribe for one ordinary share in Peako Limited (the Company) upon the payment of the Exercise Price.

- b) The Exercise Price of the options is as follows :
- 1,000,000 at $0.06 (6 cents)
- 1,000,000 at $0.10 (10 cents)
- 1,000,000 at $0.15 (15 cents)
- c) The options will lapse at 5.00pm (AEDT) on
- 1,000,000 29 March 2024 (Expiry Date 1) subject to the provisions of (h).

- f) In the event of any re-organisation (including reconstruction, consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return of capital) of the issued capital of the Company, the options will be reorganised in respect to number and exercise price as required by the Listing Rules, but in all other respects the terms of exercise will remain unchanged.
- g) Contingent upon the holder's continuing involvement with the Company in the form of ongoing directorship, employment and or consultancy arrangements, the options are exerciseable at any time during the period and on or before the Expiry Date (subject to the right set out in provision (h)), by the delivery to the registered office of the Company of a notice in writing (Notice) stating the intention of the optionholder to exercise the option accompanied by an Option Certificate or Holding Statement and a cheque or electronic transfer made payable to the Company for the subscription monies for the shares to be issued on exercise of the options the subject of the Notice.

The nature of the financial benefit which may be obtained the named Director as a related party of the Company is that the Director will be granted the options which have the value as summarised above.
It is important for members to recognise that for the value in the related party benefit constituted by the grant of the options to be realisable by the optionholder, that the options must be exercised as they are, generally, not transferable.
The acquisition by any person of options does not change voting power. That voting power will only change in accordance with changes in the relevant interests in shareholdings of any member or of those of his associates.
Director's recommendations
The Corporations Act requires in Section 219, inter alia, that, in relation to each director of the company, it must be set out herein:
- (l) if the director wanted to make a recommendation to members about the proposed resolution—the recommendation and his or her reasons for it; or
- (m) if not—why not; or

(n) if the director was not available to consider the proposed resolution—why not.
Dr Kitto abstains from making any recommendation to members in relation to resolution 5 as he has an interest in the outcome of the resolution
All other Directors recommend that members vote in favour of resolution 5 as they consider that the grant of the Options to Dr Kitto constitutes an important incentive to motivate and reward the performance of Dr Kitto in his role.
Within the knowledge of the directors, there is no other information reasonably required by members in order to decide whether or not it is in the interest of the members to pass proposed resolution 5. The effect of passing the resolutions will, if the Options are exercised, be to dilute members' interests proportionately and to reduce the respective voting power of each of them proportionately.
Note 6: Resolution 6 - Approval of 10% Placement Capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A
Under Resolution 6, the Company is seeking members' approval of a Special Resolution to renew the Company's capacity to issue the maximum number of additional equity securities permitted under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. This Listing Rule (LR) permits the placement of new equity securities (calculated in accordance with LR 7.1A.2) as described here:
ASX 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:
(A x D) – E
A = The number of fully paid ordinary shares on issue at the commencement of the 12 months immediately preceding the date of issue or agreement to issue:
plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the 12 months under an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.2 other than exception 9, 16 or 17;
plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period on the conversion of convertible securities within ASX Listing Rule 7.2 exception 9 where:
- the convertible securities were issued or agreed to be issued before the commencement of the relevant period; or
- the issue of, or agreement to issue the convertible securities was approve or taken under these rules to have been approved under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4;
plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period under an agreement to issue securities within ASX Listing Rule 7.2 exception 16 where:
- the agreement was entered into before the commencement of the relevant period; or
- the agreement or issue was approved, or taken under these rules to have been approved under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or rule 7.4;

plus the number of any other fully paid ordinary securities that became fully paid in the relevant period
less the number of fully paid ordinary securities cancelled in the last 12 months
Note that A has the same meaning in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating an entity's 15% placement capacity.
- D = 10%
- E = the number of equity securities issued or agreed to be issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the last 12 months immediately preceding the date or issue of the shares where the issue or agreement has not been subsequently approved by the holders of its ordinary securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.4
As Resolution 6 is a Special Resolution, it requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by members present and eligible to vote at the Meeting.
Eligibility criteria
Under LR 7.1A an eligible entity may, subject to shareholder approval by way of special resolution, make such a 10% Placement in addition to the 15% new issue capacity available to ASX-listed entities under LR 7.1. An eligible entity for the purposes of LR 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 not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of significantly less than $300 million, so is an eligible entity.
Placement capacity under Listing Rule7.1A
As at the date of this Notice, the Company had 308,454,101 ordinary shares on issue. Therefore, in addition to any equity securities it can issue under LR 7.1, if Resolution 6 is approved, the Company will have capacity to issue up to 30,845,410 equity securities under LR 7.1A, being up to 10% of the 308,454,101 fully paid ordinary shares presently on issue. However, the number of equity securities that may be issued under LR 7.1A may increase beyond 308,454,101, as the actual number of fully paid shares on issue may increase by the date of any issue that may be made should Resolution 6 be approved.
Minimum issue price
In accordance with LR 7.1A, equity securities issued under the 10% Placement can only be issued at a price that is equivalent to not less than 75% of the volume weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company's equity securities of the same class calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in its Shares were recorded immediately before:
- the date on which the issue price of the equity securities is agreed; or
- the issue date (if the equity securities are not issued within ten trading days of the date on which the issue price is agreed).
10% Placement Period
Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under Listing Rule 7.1A commences on the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained and expires on the first to occur to the following:
- the date that is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained;
- the time and date of the Company's next annual general meeting; or

• the time and date of the approval by shareholders of ordinary securities of a transaction under ASX Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking.
Shareholder approval under LR 7.1A does not lapse if the Company's market capitalisation subsequently exceeds $300 million or it is included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index at some time during the placement period; provided the Company meets the criteria under LR 7.1A on the date of the Meeting.
Dilution to existing shareholdings
If Resolution 6 is approved by members and the Company issues equity securities under the 10% Placement, there is a potential risk of economic and voting dilution to existing shareholders as a result.
Further, as the market price of the equity securities may be significantly lower on the issue date of the 10% Placement than on the date of approval at the Meeting, and because equity securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price on the issue date, there is a risk that the 10% Placement may raise less funding than it would if it was based on current market prices.
The economic dilution will reflect that existing shareholders who do not participate in the 10% Placement will have their underlying economic interests in the Company's assets diluted pro rata to the dilution in their shareholdings.
Additionally, as the issue price of any equity securities issued under the 10% Placement capacity may be at a discount to the equivalent VWAP of the Company's Shares traded over the 15 trading days prior to their issue price being set or the equity securities being issued, a further economic effect of such a placement may be a reduction in the market price or value of their then existing equity holding in the capital of the Company. Whether such a reduction in market price or value occurs, and if so for how long it continues, will depend on factors not presently known, including the purpose for which the 10% Placement may be made. The converse outcomes may also occur.
It is not possible to set out further economic effects which may arise from the 10% Placement, as they are unknown in advance of such a placement being made.

Table showing various hypothetical scenarios as required by Listing Rule 7.3A.4
As required by LR 7.3A.4, the table below shows a number of hypothetical scenarios for the 10% Placement where Variable "A" in the formula in LR 7.1A.2 (representing the Company's share capital) has increased by either 50% or 100% and the share price has decreased by 50% or increased by 100% from the approximate share price as at the date of this Notice.

The table has been prepared on the following hypothetical assumptions but the Company does not represent the assumptions will necessarily occur:
- the Company issues the maximum number of Shares available under the 10% Placement.
- any increase in Variable A (being the Company's issued share capital at the time of issue under the 10% Placement) is due solely to an issue of Shares which is an exception in LR 7.2; for example a pro-rata rights issue. However, a 15% placement under LR 7.1 does not increase Variable "A" for the purposes of calculating the placement capacity under LR 7.1A.
- the table shows only the effect of issues of shares under LR 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity available to ASX listed entities under LR 7.1.
- the table does not show the dilution that may be caused to any particular Shareholder by reason of placements of Shares under LR 7.1A, based on that Shareholder's holding at the date of the Meeting. For instance, Shareholders will have different outcomes depending on whether or not they participate in a pro-rata issue which has the effect of increasing Variable "A"; and
- the current price for shares is assumed to be $0.022, being the price on 12 October 2021 immediately prior to lodgement of this Notice with ASX.

Purpose of the 10% Placement
The Company may seek to issue equity securities under the 10% Placement at a cash issue price, in which case the Company would use the funds for existing projects, to fund new venture opportunities, as working capital generally or for other corporate purposes.
Allocation policy
The allottees of any equity securities to be issued under the 10% Placement capacity have not yet been determined. However, the allottees of equity securities could consist of current shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company.
No priority of application will be accorded to existing shareholders and, unless the 10% Placement was made with disclosure, the allottees will be excluded offerees under section 708(8), 708(10) or 708(11) of the Corporations Act.
Subject to the above provisos, the Company will determine the allottees and the manner of their selection at the time of the issue of the 10% Placement, having regard for the following factors:
- the purpose of the issue of equity securities;
- alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;
- the effect of the issue of equity securities on the control of the Company;
- the circumstances of the Company including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company;
- prevailing market conditions; and
- advice from corporate, financial and broking advisors (if applicable).
Recommendation
As at the date of the Notice containing these Explanatory Notes, the Company has no plans to raise additional capital utilising the 10% Placement authority provided by Resolution 6. However, many eligible resource companies are, as a matter of corporate prudence, seeking to obtain this form of available shareholder approval to enable capital raisings to be made, if appropriate, during the 12 months following the Meeting. Accordingly, Members' approval of Resolution 6 is considered prudential.
The Directors believe Resolution 6 will provide the Company with the flexibility to raise capital quickly if advantageous terms are available or if required for funding the Company and where doing so is in the best interests of the Company.
The Directors unanimously recommend that all Members vote in favour of resolution 6.

Note 7: Voting Generally
- The Company has determined that, in accordance with regulation 7.11.37 of the Corporations Regulations 2001 (Cth), the holders of shares of the Company who are on the Company's share register as at 2:30pm (AEDT) on Wednesday 24th November 2021 will be taken for the purposes of the Meeting to be held by the persons who held them at that time. Accordingly, those persons will be entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting.
- A Member entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies to attend and vote on their behalf. Where more than one proxy is appointed, such proxy must be allocated a proportion of the Member's voting rights.
- A proxy duly appointed need not be a Member.
- A proxy form accompanies this Notice and to be effective, the form and any document necessary to show the validity of the form must be lodged with the Company not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the Meeting. Any proxy lodged after that time will be treated as invalid.
- Directors and Officers of corporate shareholders should note that unless the corporate shareholder either:
- a) completes and lodges with the Company a valid form of appointment of proxy in accordance with the instructions on the enclosed proxy form; or
- b) completes and either lodges with the Company prior to the Meeting a form of appointment of personal representative in accordance with the provisions of Section 250D of the Corporations Act or causes such personal representative to attend the Meeting with such form of appointment; or
- c) has appointed an attorney,
- d) and such proxy, personal representative or attorney attends the Meeting, then such corporate shareholder will be unable to exercise any votes at the Meeting.
- Proxy and corporate appointment of representative forms may be returned to the Company in the manner detailed at point 6 on the reverse of the proxy form.
- Corporate shareholders should comply with the execution requirements set out above and on the reverse of the proxy form and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 127 of the Corporations Act, as detailed at point 7 on the reverse of the proxy form.
- Completion of a proxy form will not prevent individual Members from attending the Meeting in person if they wish. Where a Member completes and lodges a valid proxy form and attends the Meeting in person then the proxy's authority to speak and vote for that Member is suspended while the Member is present at the Meeting.
Where a proxy form or form of appointment of personal representative is lodged and is executed under power of attorney the power of attorney must be lodged in like manner as a proxy.
