EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
Receipt and consideration of Accounts & Reports
A copy of the Annual Report for the financial year ending 30 June 2014 (which incorporates the Company's financial report, reports of the Directors (including the Remuneration Report) and the auditors report) is not enclosed as there is no longer a requirement for the Company to incur the printing and distribution cost associated with doing so for all shareholders. You may obtain a copy free of charge in hard copy form by contacting the Company by phone at (03) 9692 7222, and you may request that this occurs on a standing basis for future years. Alternatively you may access the annual report at the Company's website: www.celaminnl.com.au or via the Company's announcement platform on ASX. Except for as set out in Resolution 1, no resolution is required on these reports.
Resolution 1: Adoption of Remuneration Report
The Corporations Act, pursuant to sections 249L(2) and 250(2), requires that at a listed Company’s Annual General Meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted must be put to the shareholders. However, section 250R(3) of the Corporations Act 2001 expressly provides that the vote on such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. However, the Board will take the outcome of the vote into consideration when reviewing its remuneration practices and policies.
The Remuneration Report sets out the Company’s remuneration arrangements for the Directors and senior management of the Company (described as " Key Management Personnel ") as required by section 300 of the Corporations Act. The Remuneration Report is part of the Directors’ report contained at pages 6-10 in the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ending 30 June 2014. It sets out a range of matters relating to the remuneration of the Directors and senior managers of the Company.
A reasonable opportunity will be provided for discussion of the Remuneration Report at the Annual General Meeting, as required by section 250SA of the Corporations Act.
Pursuant to the Corporations Amendment (Improving Accountability for Director and Executive Remuneration) Bill 2011 which amended the Corporations Act from 1 July 2011, if 25% or more of votes that are cast are voted against the adoption of the remuneration report at two consecutive annual general meetings (effectively, "two strikes"), shareholders will be required to vote at the second of those annual general meetings on a resolution (referred to as a "spill resolution") to determine whether another meeting should be held within 90 days at which all of the Company's Directors (other than the Managing Director) must go up for re-election.
At last years AGM, more than 25% of the votes cast on the resolution to adopt the 2013 Remuneration Report were voted against the resolution. Accordingly the Company has received a first strike under the executive remuneration laws.
If less than 25% of the votes on Resolution 1 are cast against the adoption of the 2014 Remuneration Report at the 2014 AGM, then there will be no second strike and it is intended that Resolution 2 will not be put to the meeting.
If the votes cast against the adoption of the 2014 Remuneration Report are again at least 25% of the votes cast the Company will receive a second strike and Resolution 2 will be put to the meeting.
The Company encourages all Shareholders to cast their votes in relation to Resolution 1 and if Shareholders intend to appoint a proxy, Shareholders should direct their proxy how to vote on Resolution 1 by marking either "For", "Against" or "Abstain" on the proxy form. The Chairman of the meeting will vote undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1.
Resolution 2: Spill Resolution
This resolution will only be put to a vote if at least 25% of the votes cast on the resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report (Resolution 1) are cast against the adoption of the report. Such an against vote will constitute a second strike for the Company.
If the Company receives a second strike and this Resolution 2 is passed, it will be necessary for the Board to convene a further general meeting (“Spill Meeting”) of the Company within 90 days of the AGM in order to consider the composition of the Board.
If a Spill Meeting is held, then David Regan, Martin Broome and Russell Luxford will automatically vacate office at the conclusion of the Spill Meeting unless they are willing to stand for re-election and are re-elected at that Spill Meeting.
If David Regan is re-elected at this year’s AGM, he will still need to be re-elected at the Spill Meeting to remain in office after
the Spill Meeting.
The Directors unanimously recommend that shareholders vote against Resolution 2 on the basis that it would be disruptive to the Company and the removal of the applicable directors would be inappropriate in the circumstances.
The Chairman of the Meeting intends to vote all available proxies against Resolution 2.
- 6 -
Resolution 3: Election of Mr Tim Markwell
Mr Tim Markwell was appointed as a director on 5 August 2014.
Tim is a qualified geologist with 20 years experience in the resource sector, including senior technical roles with BHP Billiton, Golder Associates and Minara Resources. He has specific expertise in resource assessment and was involved in feasibility studies for a number of Australian resources projects.
Tim joined African Lion in February 2007. Prior to this he held roles as a resources/investment analyst with a broking firm and then a listed investment fund. He graduated with an honours degree in geology from the University of Western Australia in 1993, and has a Graduate Diploma in Applied Finance and Investment from FINSIA.
The Chairman of the Meeting intends to vote all available proxies as an abstention for Resolution 3.
Resolution 4: Election of Mr Nicholas Clift
Mr Nicholas Clift was appointed as a director on 13 October 2014.
Mr Clift initially joined the Company as Chief Operating Office in May 2014, and was subsequently appointed Chief Executive Officer in June 2014, and has now been appointed as Managing Director. Mr Clift is a highly experienced and successful senior mining industry executive with particular expertise in the sub-Saharan and North African region. This experience has proved invaluable in the Company’s aims to advance its core asset, the Chaketma Phosphate Project in Tunisia. His previous roles include; Managing Director of Algerian focused base metals company Terramin Australia Ltd (ASX: TZN), along with roles at Anglo American, Zinifex Ltd and Mount Isa Mines Ltd, among others.
The Chairman of the Meeting intends to vote all available proxies as an abstention for Resolution 4.
Resolution 5: Re-election Mr David Regan
The Constitution of the Company requires that at every annual general meeting, one-third of the Directors (or the number nearest to but not exceeding a third), shall retire from office and provides that such Directors are eligible for re-election at the meeting. He retires by rotation and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election.
Mr. Regan is a lawyer by training and has been working in the resources industry in Papua New Guinea, Australia, North America and the North Africa Middle East region for over thirty years in various senior corporate roles. During this period he worked for Rio Tinto, BHP Billiton, Atlantic Richfield (Anaconda Minerals, Arco Coal and Arco International) in a variety of roles including legal, corporate planning, economic evaluation, marketing, joint venture management and business development. Mr. Regan has worked in the North Africa Middle East region for over ten years where he led teams that put together over $3 billion of resource investments. Mr. Regan was an independent director of ASX listed Citadel Resource Group (CGG) and a founding director of Celamin Limited.
The Chairman of the Meeting intends to vote all available proxies as an abstention for Resolution 5.
Resolution 6: Approval of 10% Placement Facility
Listing Rule 7.1A enables eligible entities to issue equity securities up to 10% of its issued share capital through placements over a 12 month period after the annual general meeting (10% Placement Facility). The 10% Placement Facility is in addition to the Company's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
An eligible entity for the purposes of 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.
The Company is now seeking shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to have the ability to issue equity securities under the 10% Placement Facility.
The exact number of equity securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Facility will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (see below).
As disclosed in the Company’s previous Annual Reports and Quarterly Activity Reports, the Company continues actively seeking to increase work on its current exploration and development assets and reviewing new potential projects and investments. Should the Company utilise the 10% Placement Facility, it intends to use the funds to acquire new exploration assets or investments, to conduct further work on its current projects or to meet additional working capital requirements.
The Directors of the Company believe that Resolution 6 is in the best interests of the Company and unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.
Description of Listing Rule 7.1A
(a) Shareholder approval
The ability of the Company to issue equity securities under the 10% Placement Facility is subject to shareholder approval by way of a special resolution at an annual general meeting.
- 7 -
(b) 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.
As at the date of the Notice of Meeting, the Company has on issue three classes of equity securities, Shares (ordinary shares), partly paid shares and unlisted options. As the Shares are the only existing quoted class of equity securities of the Company, only Shares can be issued under the 10% Placement Facility.
(c) 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, in a period of up to 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 is the number of fully paid Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:
-
plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;
-
plus the number of partly paid Shares that became fully paid in the 12 months;
-
plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the 12 months with approval of holders of Shares under Listing Rule 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;
-
less the number of fully paid shares cancelled in the 12 months.
-
[Note: A is 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 Rule 7.1 or 7.4.
-
(d) 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 on issue 235,671,986 Shares and therefore has a capacity to issue:
-
(i) 35,350,798 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1; and
-
(ii) subject to Shareholder approval being sought under Resolution 5, 23,567,199 Equity Securities 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.
(e) 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 Trading Days immediately before:
-
(i) the date on which the price at which the equity securities are to be issued is agreed; or (ii) if the equity securities are not issued within 5 Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the equity securities are issued.
-
(f) 10% Placement Period
Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under Listing Rule 7.1A is valid from the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained and expires on the earlier to occur of:
- (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained; or (ii) 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),
or such longer period if allowed by ASX (10% Placement Period).
- 8 -
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 10% Placement Period 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 (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative).
Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A
Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, information is provided in relation to the approval of the 10% Placement Facility as follows:
-
(a) The equity securities will be issued at an issue price of not less than 75% of the VWAP for the Company's equity securities over the 15 Trading Days immediately before:
-
(i) the date on which the price at which the equity securities are to be issued is agreed; or
-
(ii) if the equity securities are not issued within 5 Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the equity securities are issued.
-
(b) If Resolution 6 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues equity securities under the 10% Placement Facility, the existing Shareholders' voting power in the Company will be diluted as shown in the below table. There is a risk that:
-
(i) the market price for the Company's Shares may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the equity securities than on the date of the Meeting; and
-
(ii) the equity securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for the Company's Shares on the issue date or the equity securities are issued as part of consideration for the acquisition of a new asset,
which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the equity securities.
The below table shows the dilution of existing Shareholders on the basis of the current market price of ordinary shares and the current number of ordinary shares for variable "A" calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A(2) as at the date of this Notice.
The table also shows:
-
two examples where variable “A” has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable “A” is based on the number of ordinary shares the Company has on issue. The number of ordinary shares on issue may increase as a result of issues of ordinary shares 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
-
two examples of where the issue price of ordinary shares has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.
| Variable 'A' in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 |
Dilution | Dilution | Dilution | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $0.011 50% decrease in Issue Price |
$0.021 Issue Price |

The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:
-
The Company issues the maximum number of equity securities available under the 10% Placement Facility.
-
No Options are exercised into Shares before the date of the issue of the equity securities.
-
The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.
-
9 -
-
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.
-
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.
-
The issue of equity securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares. If the issue of equity securities includes Listed Options, it is assumed that those Listed Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.
-
The issue price is $0.021 being the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 15 October 2014.
-
(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 (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:
-
(i) non-cash consideration for the acquisition of the new assets / investments or the pursuit of new business opportunities.. In such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by Listing Rule 7.1A.3; or
-
(ii) cash consideration for similar opportunities (in such circumstances, the Company would use the funds raised to pay the cash consideration for the acquisition and/or expenses associated with such acquisition), continued development of technologies, research and development, feasibility studies and/or general working capital.
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 equity securities will be determined on a caseby-case basis having regard to the factors including but not limited to the following:
-
(i) the 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;
-
(ii) the effect of the issue of the equity securities on the control of the Company;
-
(iii) the financial situation and solvency of the Company; and
-
(iv) 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 investors 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.

The table below shows the total number of equity securities issued in the past 12 months preceding the date of the AGM and the percentages those issues represent of the total number of equity securities on issue at the commencement of the 12 month period.
