IMPORTANT NOTES
This Offer Document is issued by the Company.
This is an important document
This Offer Document and the Entitlement and Acceptance Form are important documents and require Shareholders’ immediate attention. Shareholders should read these documents carefully and in their entirety before deciding whether or not to participate in the Offer. In particular, Shareholders should consider the risk factors outlined in Section 5 of this Offer Document.
Entitlement may have value
Shareholders should be aware that their Entitlement may have value. The Entitlement is renounceable which enables Participating Shareholders who do not wish to exercise all or a portion of their Entitlement to seek to sell their Entitlement. It is important that Participating Shareholders either exercise all or some of their Entitlement or deal with their Entitlement as described in this Offer Document. Participating Shareholders who take no action in respect of their Entitlement will receive no benefits and their proportional shareholding in the Company will be diluted.
Not financial advice
This Offer Document does not constitute financial product advice and has been prepared without taking into account each Participating Shareholder’s investment objectives or financial circumstances. This Offer Document does not purport to contain all the information that Participating Shareholders may require to make an informed investment decision regarding, or about the rights attaching to, the New Shares offered under this Offer Document.
Before deciding whether to apply for New Shares, each Participating Shareholder should consider whether the Company is a suitable investment for them in light of their own investment objectives and financial circumstances and should seek professional advice from their accountant, stockbroker, lawyer or other professional adviser (including a professional tax adviser) before deciding whether or not to participate in the Offer.
This is not a prospectus
Neither this Offer Document, nor the Entitlement and Acceptance Form, is a prospectus for the purposes of the Corporations Act. Accordingly, these documents do not contain all of the information which a prospective investor may require to make an investment decision. They do not, and are not required to, contain all of the information which would otherwise be required to be disclosed in a prospectus. They are not required to be, and will not be, lodged with ASIC.
Continuous disclosure
This Offer Document should be read in conjunction with the Company’s other periodic and continuous disclosure announcements to the ASX available at www.asx.com.au or the Company’s website: www.celaminnl.com.au.
Disclaimer
The Company does not give any undertaking or
representation that information in this Offer Document will be updated, except to the minimum extent required by law. Neither the Company nor any other person warrants or guarantees the future performance of the Company or any return on any investment made under this Offer Document. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company and its officers, employees, agents, associates and advisers do not make any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the currency, accuracy, reliability or completeness of such information, or likelihood of fulfillment of any forward looking statement, and disclaim all responsibility and liability for these forward looking statements (including, without limitation, liability for negligence).
Ineligible Shareholders
This Offer is made only to Participating Shareholders. The Offer is not extended to, and no New Shares are offered or will be issued to, persons with registered addresses outside of Australia or New Zealand (and certain sophisticated or institutional or limited numbers of Shareholders in France, Mauritius, Guernsey, Singapore and the United Kingdom) to whom it would be unlawful to make such an offer. It is not practicable for the Company to comply with the securities laws of overseas jurisdictions (other than those mentioned above) having regard to the number of overseas Shareholders, the number and value of Shares these Shareholders would be offered and the cost of complying with regulatory requirements in each relevant jurisdiction. Accordingly the Offer is not being extended to any Shareholders whose registered address is outside of Australia and New Zealand except to certain sophisticated or institutional or limited numbers of Shareholders in France, Mauritius, Guernsey, Singapore and the United Kingdom.
United States
The New Shares have not been nor will be registered under the US Securities Act or the securities laws of any state of the United States and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, any US Person as defined in Regulation S under the US Securities Act, except in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the US Securities Act and applicable US state securities laws.
Any offer, sale or resale of New Shares in the United States by a dealer (whether or not participating in the Rights Issue) may violate the registration requirements of the US Securities Act if made prior to 40 days after the date on which New Shares are issued under the Rights Issue or if the New Shares were purchased by a dealer under the Rights Issue.
New Zealand
The Rights Issue is being made in New Zealand pursuant to the Securities Act (Overseas Companies) Exemption Notice 2013.
Shareholders resident in Australia or New Zealand holding Shares on behalf of persons who are resident overseas are responsible for ensuring that taking up an Entitlement under the Rights Issue does not breach regulations in the relevant overseas jurisdiction. Return of a duly completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form will be taken by the Company
3
to constitute a representation that there has been no breach of those regulations.

Pursuant to Article 211-3 of the General Regulation of the AMF, investors in France are informed that the Entitlements and the New Shares cannot be distributed (directly or indirectly) to the public by the investors otherwise than in accordance with Articles L.411-1, L.411-2, L.412-1 and L.621-8 to L.621-8-3 of the French Monetary and Financial Code.
This Offer Document has not been submitted to the clearance procedures of the AMF in France. The distribution of this Offer Document and the offering of New Shares are therefore restricted by French law.

CHAIRMAN'S LETTER
4 November 2014
Dear Shareholder
On behalf of the Directors of Celamin Holdings NL ( Celamin or Company ), I am pleased to invite you to participate in a partially underwritten renounceable pro rata offer to subscribe for 15 New Shares for every four Existing Shares and one New Share for every 27 Partly Paid Shares held on the Record Date ( Offer ).
The Offer is partially underwritten and will raise a minimum of $7.575 million, subject to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement.
The Record Date for the Offer is 7pm (Melbourne time) on 10 November 2014.
New Shares under the Offer will be offered at the issue price of A$0.010 per New Share, representing a 33% discount to the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 24 October 2014, which was the last day Shares traded on the ASX before the announcement of the Offer and an approximate 9.5% discount to the theoretical ex rights price.[1]
You may also apply for additional New Shares in excess of your Entitlement under the top up offer ( Shortfall Offer ) (refer to Section 2.3 of this Offer Document).
The Offer will raise between $7.575 million and approximately A$8.8 million. New Shares issued under the Offer will rank equally with Existing Shares.
Following the repayment of an outstanding bridging loan (the African Lion Facility), the Company intends to use the funds raised by the Offer to complete part of the first phase of the bankable feasibility study for the Chaketma Phosphate Project and, in parallel, produce a preliminary feasibility study which covers the five pillars of geology, metallurgy, environmental and social impact assessment, water and key project infrastructure.
The funds raised by the Offer will also cover the working capital needs of the Company. On completion of the Offer, the Directors believe that the Company will have sufficient working capital to achieve its current objectives. The Company anticipates that it will require further funds in April 2015 for the completion of the bankable feasibility study for the Chaketma Phosphate Project and for additional working capital.
The closing date for the receipt of Application and Entitlement Forms and Application Money for the Offer is 5pm (Melbourne time) on 24 November 2014. If you decide to take this opportunity to increase your investment in the Company please ensure that, before this time, your completed Application and Entitlement Form and your Application Money are received by the Share Registry, Advanced Share Registry, or you have paid your Application Money through BPAY® in accordance with the instructions set out in the enclosed Application and Entitlement Form and Required Actions Section of this Offer Document.
If you do not wish to take up any of your Entitlement, you do not have to take any action.
1 The theoretical ex rights price (TERP) is the theoretical price at which Shares should trade immediately after the ex date for the Offer. The TERP is a theoretical calculation only and the actual price at which Shares trade immediately after the ex date for the Offer will depend on many factors and may not be equal to the TERP.

1.8 Participating and Non Participating Shareholders
The Offer that is the subject of this Offer Document is not an offer in any place where, or to any person to whom, it would be unlawful to make such an offer.
This Offer is made to the following Shareholders ( Participating Shareholders ):
-
(a) all Shareholders with registered addresses in Australia;
-
(b) all Shareholders with registered addresses in New Zealand; and
-
(c) certain sophisticated or institutional or limited numbers of Shareholders in France, Mauritius, Guernsey, Singapore and the United Kingdom,
-
at 7.00 pm (Melbourne time) on the Record Date.
Beyond Australia and New Zealand the Directors have decided that it is unreasonable for the Company to make the Offer to Shareholders in other jurisdictions as at the Record Date (except certain sophisticated or institutional or limited numbers of Shareholders in certain foreign jurisdictions, notably France, Mauritius, Guernsey, Singapore and the United Kingdom) ( Non Participating Shareholders ), having regard to the small number of Shareholders in each other jurisdiction, the small number and value of securities held by those Shareholders and the costs of complying with the legal and regulatory requirements in those jurisdictions. Consequently, and in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules, the Offer is not being made to Non Participating Shareholders. However, refer to Section 2.10 regarding the possible sale of Rights by the Nominee of Non Participating Shareholders' Rights and payment of net proceeds to Non Participating Shareholders.
Participating Shareholders holding Shares or Partly Paid Shares on behalf of persons who reside outside Australia or New Zealand are responsible for ensuring that taking up the Rights under the Rights Issue does not breach regulations in the relevant overseas jurisdiction. Return of a duly completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form will constitute a representation that there has been no breach of these regulations. Where the Offer Document has been dispatched to a Shareholder domiciled outside Australia, New Zealand (other than certain institutional or sophisticated or limited numbers of investors in France, Mauritius, Guernsey, Singapore and the United Kingdom), and where that country's securities code or legislation prohibits or restricts in any way the making of the Offer contemplated by the Offer Document, the Offer Document is provided for information purposes only.

1.9 New Shares
The New Shares will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company, and from the date of issue, will rank equally in all respects with Existing Shares on that date.
By accepting your Rights, you agree to comply with the Constitution in respect of the New Shares issued to you under this Offer Document. Details of the rights and liabilities attaching to the New Shares are set out in Section 6.4.
1.10 Participation in dividends
The New Shares will rank equally with Existing Shares and accordingly will participate in any dividend declared after they are issued.
Future dividends will be determined by the Directors and will be dependent on various matters, including the Company's financial performance, its capital structure, cash position and the requirements of the Company's financing facility agreements.
Consequently, the Directors cannot give any assurances concerning the payment of future dividends.
1.11 Possible income tax implications regarding the Rights
Shareholders should be aware that there may be taxation implications of participating in the Offer, subscribing for New Shares. The taxation consequences of participating in the Offer may vary depending on the individual circumstances of each Shareholder. Shareholders should consult their own professional taxation advisers to obtain advice in relation to the taxation laws and regulations applicable to their personal circumstances.
1.12 CHESS
The New Shares will participate, from the date of commencement of quotation, in CHESS. They must be held in uncertificated form (i.e. no share certificate will be issued) on either the CHESS sub register under sponsorship of a broker or the issuer sponsored sub register. New Shares issued to Participating Shareholders will be issued to the same sub register as their existing holding.
Arrangements can be made at any subsequent time to convert your holding from the issuer sponsored sub register to the CHESS sub register under sponsorship of a broker or vice versa by contacting the Share Registry or your broker.
1.13 Professional Advice
If you are in doubt as to whether to accept the Offer, please contact your stockbroker or other professional adviser.

Section 2 What You May Do
If you have any questions about your Rights, please contact:
the Company Secretary on 03 9692 7222; or your stockbroker or professional adviser.
The information below applies to all Participating Shareholders. If you are a Non Participating Shareholder, please read Section 2.7 for an understanding of the arrangements that apply to you.
2.1 Participating Shareholders
As a Participating Shareholder you may:
-
(a) take up all or part of your Rights;
-
(b) sell some or all of your Rights or buy more Rights;
-
(c) take up all of your Rights and apply for additional New Shares under the Shortfall Offer; or
-
(d) take no action and allow all of your Rights to lapse.
2.2 Apply for all your Rights
If you wish to apply for all of your Rights, complete the accompanying Entitlement and Acceptance Form in accordance with the instructions set out in that form. The Entitlement and Acceptance Form sets out the number of New Shares to which you are entitled. The completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form must be accompanied by a cheque or bank draft payable at an Australian bank for the appropriate Application Money calculated at $0.010 per New Share, and received by the Share Registry at the following address by no later than 5.00 pm (Melbourne time) on 24 November 2014:
Delivery address:
Advanced Share Registry
150 Stirling Highway, Nedlands WA 6009
Cheques must be made payable to Celamin Holdings NL – Rights Issue and crossed Not Negotiable . Cash will not be accepted and receipts will not be issued. The Company will present the cheque or bank draft on or around the day of receipt of the Entitlement and Acceptance Form. Accordingly, if a cheque is not honoured on its first presentation, the Directors reserve the right to reject the relevant Entitlement and Acceptance Form.
If the amount of your cheque(s) or bank draft(s) for Application Money (or the amount for which those cheque(s) or bank draft(s) clear in time for allocation) is insufficient to pay for the number of New Shares you have applied for in your Entitlement and Acceptance Form, you may be taken to have applied for such lower number of New Shares as your cleared Application Money
17
will pay (and to have specified that number of New Shares in your Entitlement and Acceptance Form) or your Application may be rejected.
The Entitlement and Acceptance Form is required to be completed in accordance with the instructions on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form.
Applicants are not guaranteed the number of additional New Shares under the Shortfall Offer for which they apply and may be issued a lesser number (or none). If so, a refund will be provided (without interest) to unsuccessful Applicants.
Alternatively, you can use the BPAY® facility which is detailed on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form. If you use the BPAY® facility you need to make sure your payment is received by 5.00 pm (Melbourne time) on 24 November 2014 and you do not need to return your Entitlement and Acceptance Form. Please refer to Section 1.1 for further details regarding BPAY® payments.
2.3 Shortfall Offer
If you are a Participating Shareholder and you apply for all of your Rights you may, in addition to taking up all of your Rights, apply for additional New Shares under this Shortfall Offer (if a Shortfall exists following the Rights Issue). A Shortfall arises if the aggregate of the valid Applications received for New Shares as at the Closing Date is less than the total number of New Shares offered to be issued under the Rights Issue.
Applicants wishing to apply for additional New Shares under the Shortfall Offer are required to complete the section of the Entitlement and Acceptance Form relating to the Shortfall Offer in accordance with the instructions on that form or, if they are not a Shareholder, request an application form from the Share Registry. The completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form must be accompanied by a cheque or bank draft payable at an Australian bank for the appropriate Application Money calculated for your Rights plus the additional New Shares at a price of $0.010 per New Share and received by the Share Registry by no later than 5.00pm (Melbourne time) on 24 November 2014 at the address referred to in Section 2.2 above.
Alternatively, you can BPAY® an amount greater than the amount required to take up all of your Rights and it will be assumed that you are applying for that number of New Shares under the Shortfall Offer. Please refer to Section 1.1 for further details regarding BPAY® payments.
Applications for New Shares under the Shortfall Offer will be determined in the sole and complete discretion of the Directors and the Underwriter and may be scaled back. There is no guarantee that any applications under the Shortfall Offer will be successful. The Directors do not intend to accept any applications under the Shortfall Offer from any sub-underwriters to the Offer.
2.4 Rights not taken up
If you are a Participating Shareholder and you decide not to take up all or part of your Rights, the New Shares representing your Right may be offered to Participating Shareholders under the Shortfall Offer. If there is insufficient demand from Participating Shareholders, the Shortfall Offer will be made available to other investors and the Underwriter. In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 3), the Directors reserve the right to issue New Shares under the Shortfall Offer, at their discretion, within 3 months after the Closing Date. The offer of New Shares under the Shortfall Offer is a separate offer made under this Offer Document and any investor (other than a Shareholder) who wishes to apply for New Shares under the Shortfall Offer should request an application form from the Share Registry.
18
You should note that if you do not participate in the Offer you will have your percentage equity in the Company reduced. If you take up your full Rights, your percentage holding in the Company will remain approximately the same. By applying for, and being allotted New Shares under the Shortfall Offer, you may see your percentage holding in the Company increase.
2.5 Entitlement and Acceptance Form is binding
A completed and lodged Entitlement and Acceptance Form, or a payment made through BPAY®, constitutes a binding offer to apply for New Shares on the terms and conditions set out in this Offer Document and, once lodged or paid, cannot be withdrawn.
If the Entitlement and Acceptance Form is not completed correctly it may still be treated as a valid Application. The Directors’ (or their delegates’) decision whether to treat an Application as valid and how to construe, amend or complete the Entitlement and Acceptance Form is final.
By completing and returning your Entitlement and Acceptance Form with the requisite Application Money or making a payment by BPAY®, you will also be deemed to have acknowledged, represented and warranted on behalf of each person on whose account you are acting that:
-
(a) you agree to be bound by the terms of the Offer;
-
(b) all details and statements in the Entitlement and Acceptance Form are complete and accurate;
-
(c) after the Company (or the Share Registry) receives the Entitlement and Acceptance Form or any payment of Application Money by BPAY®, you may not withdraw it;
-
(d) you agree to apply for the number of New Shares specified in the Entitlement and Acceptance Form, or for which you have submitted payment of any Application Money via BPAY®, at $0.010 per New Share;
-
(e) you agree to be issued the number of New Shares for which you have applied, subject to your Rights;
-
(f) you authorise the Company, the Underwriter, the Share Registry and their respective officers or agents, to do anything on your behalf necessary for the New Shares to be issued to you, including to act on instructions of the Share Registry on using the contact details set out in the Entitlement and Acceptance Form;
-
(g) you declare that you were the current registered holder of Existing Shares or Partly Paid Shares on the Record Date;
-
(h) you acknowledge that the information contained in this Offer Document and the Entitlement and Acceptance Form is not investment advice or a recommendation that New Shares are suitable for you given your investment objectives, financial situation or particular needs;
-
(i) you are a Participating Shareholder, are not in the United States nor acting for the account nor benefit of a person in the United States, and are not otherwise a person to whom it would be illegal to make an offer or issue of New Shares under the Offer;
-
(j) the New Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the US Securities Act or under the laws of any other jurisdiction outside Australia or New Zealand; and
19
- (k) you have not and will not send any materials relating to the Offer to any person in the United States or any other country outside Australia and New Zealand (other than certain sophisticated or institutional or limited numbers of Shareholders in France, Mauritius, Guernsey, Singapore and the United Kingdom where it would not otherwise be unlawful to do so).
2.6 Rights trading
If you do not wish to take up all or part of your Rights, you may be able to sell all or part of your Rights on ASX through your broker or transfer your Rights directly to another person.
Rights may be traded on ASX from 6 November 2014. You may incur brokerage costs if you sell your Rights on ASX.
If you sell all of your Rights in the Rights trading period, you may receive a higher or lower amount than a Shareholder who sells their Rights at a different time in the Rights trading period. You will also forgo any exposure to increases or decreases in the value of New Shares had you taken up that Right. Your percentage shareholding in the Company will also be diluted.
If you only sell or transfer part of your Rights, you may choose to take up the remainder or may do nothing and let that part lapse.
- (a) If you wish to sell all or part of your Rights on ASX
If you wish to sell all or part of your Rights on ASX, you should instruct your stockbroker and provide details as requested from your Entitlement and Acceptance Form. Allow sufficient time for your instructions to be carried out by your stockbroker. Please note you may incur brokerage if you choose to sell your Rights on ASX.
Rights trading on ASX starts on 6 November 2014 and ends on 17 November 2014. There is no guarantee that there will be a liquid market in traded Rights. A lack of liquidity may impact on your ability to sell your Rights on ASX and the price you may be able to achieve.
This Offer Document, along with your Entitlement and Acceptance Form, will be dispatched on 13 November 2014. The Company will have no responsibility and disclaims all liability (to the maximum extent permitted by law) to you if you trade your Rights before the Rights are allotted, or before you receive your Entitlement and Acceptance Form, whether on the basis of confirmation of the allocation provided by the Company or otherwise.
If you wish to sell part of your Rights on the ASX and let the balance lapse, follow the procedures above in respect of the part of your Rights you wish to sell on ASX and do nothing in respect of the balance.
Prices obtainable for Rights may rise and fall over the Rights trading period and will depend on many factors including the demand and supply of Rights on ASX and the value of the Company's Existing Shares relative to the Offer Price. There may be no market for the Rights. If you sell your Rights in the Rights trading period, you may receive a higher or lower amount than a shareholder who sells their Rights at a different time in the Rights trading period.
-
(b)
-
If you wish to transfer all or part of your Rights other than on ASX
If you wish to transfer all or part of your Rights other than on ASX, you must forward a completed Renunciation and Transfer Form to the Share Registry in relation to the part of your Rights that you wish to transfer. If the transferee wishes to take up all or part of the Rights transferred to them, they must send their Application Money together with
20
the Entitlement and Acceptance Form relating to the Rights transferred to them to the Share Registry.
You can obtain a Renunciation and Transfer Form by contacting the Share Registry or from your stockbroker. The Renunciation and Transfer Form as well as the transferee's Application Money and the Entitlement and Acceptance Form relating to the Rights transferred to them must be received by the Share Registry at the mail or hand delivery address in Section 2.2 no later than 5pm on 24 November 2014.
If the Share Registry receives both a completed Renunciation and Transfer Form and an Application for New Shares in respect of the same Rights, the transfer will take priority over the Application.
If you wish to transfer part of your Rights and allow the balance to lapse, follow the procedures above in respect of the part of your Rights you wish to transfer, and do nothing in respect of the balance.
If you transfer your Rights, you will forgo any exposure to increases or decreases in the value of the New Shares had you taken up those Rights. Your percentage shareholding in the Company will also be diluted.
You may only transfer your Right in this way to a purchaser whose address is in Australia or New Zealand, who is not in the United States and is not acting for a person in the United States. Transferees of Rights that do not have a registered address in Australia or New Zealand that are in the United States or that are acting for a person in the United States will not be eligible to take up Rights. You should inform any transferee of these restrictions.
- (c) If you wish to let your Rights lapse
Any Rights which you do not take up, sell or transfer will lapse and New Shares in respect of those Rights may be sold. By allowing your Rights to lapse you will forgo any exposure to increases or decreases in the value of the New Shares had you taken up those Rights (or any value for those Rights which may have been achieved through its sale on ASX or otherwise). Your percentage shareholding in the Company will also be diluted.
2.7 Non Participating Shareholders and appointment of a nominee for Non Participating Shareholders
The Offer is not being extended to any Non Participating Shareholders. The Company is of the view that it is not reasonable or practicable to extend the Offer to Non Participating Shareholders, having regard to:
-
(a) the number of Non Participating Shareholders and their proportion to the total issued capital of the Company;
-
(b) the number and value of the New Shares which would be offered to Non Participating Shareholders if they were eligible Shareholders; and
-
(c) the cost of complying with the legal requirement, and requirements of the regulatory authorities in the respective overseas jurisdictions.
Accordingly, the Offer is not being extended to Shareholders whose registered address is outside Australia, New Zealand (except certain sophisticated or institutional or limited numbers of Shareholders in certain foreign jurisdictions, notably France, Mauritius, Guernsey, Singapore or the United Kingdom) and no action has been taken to register or qualify the Offer, the Rights,
21
the New Shares, or otherwise permit the public offering of the New Shares in any jurisdiction other than Australia or New Zealand.
The Company intends to appoint the Underwriter or an affiliate of the Underwriter as nominee for the Non Participating Shareholders ( Nominee ). If there is a viable market for Rights and a premium over the expenses of their sale can be made, the Nominee will arrange the sale of the Rights which would have been offered to the Non Participating Shareholders. The Nominee will arrange for the proceeds of sale (if any), net of expenses, to be distributed to Non Participating Shareholders in proportion to their shareholding at the Record Date.
The Company and the Nominee will not be liable for the failure to sell the Rights or the failure to sell the Rights at any particular price. If there is no viable market for the Rights, the Rights of Non Participating Shareholders will be allowed to lapse. There is also no guarantee that any proceeds will be realised from the sale of Rights that would otherwise have been offered to Non Participating Shareholders.
2.8 Foreign Selling Restrictions
The following international selling restrictions relate to the issue of New Shares under the Offer.
Neither this Offer Document nor the Entitlement and Acceptance Form constitutes an offer of securities in any jurisdiction in which, or to any persons to whom, it would not be lawful to make such an offer. The distribution of this Offer Document (including an electronic copy) in jurisdictions outside Australia and New Zealand may be restricted by laws, and persons who come into possession of it should seek advice on and observe any such restrictions. Any failure to comply with those restrictions may constitute a violation of applicable securities laws.
This Offer Document or the New Shares have not been and will not be, registered in any jurisdiction other than Australia. This Offer Document does not constitute an offer or invitation in any jurisdiction in which, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to make such an offer or invitation.
Each Participating Shareholder who submits an Entitlement and Acceptance Form together with full payment of the Application Money will be deemed to have represented, warranted and agreed that:
-
(a) the New Shares will not be registered under the US Securities Act or any US state or other securities laws, and may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred except in accordance with an available exemption from, or in transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the US Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws;
-
(b) they are not in the United States or acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States; and
-
(c) if in the future they decide to sell or otherwise transfer their New Shares, they will only do so in standard transactions on ASX where neither they nor any person acting on their behalf knows or has reason to know that the sale has been prearranged with, or that the purchase is in, the United States.
-
2.9 Nominees
The foreign selling restrictions under the Offer summarised in Section 2.8 apply to the underlying beneficial holder.
Nominees, trusts and custodians must not apply on behalf of any beneficial holder that would not itself be a Participating Shareholder. Accordingly, any Application made on the Entitlement
22
and Acceptance Form by a nominee on behalf of a beneficiary, must be in accordance with the Offer. This would be the case where:
-
(a) the nominee has a registered address in Australia (irrespective of the registered address of the beneficiary);
-
(b) the beneficiary is not in the United States and is not acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States; and
-
(c) the beneficiary is eligible under all applicable securities laws to receive an offer under the Offer.
A nominee must not send any materials relating to the Offer outside Australia except to certain institutional or sophisticated or limited numbers of investors in certain foreign jurisdictions (notably France, Mauritius, Guernsey, Singapore or the United Kingdom) and must not submit an Application or otherwise accept the Offer on behalf of a person in the United States.
Shareholders who are nominees, trustees or customers are therefore advised to seek independent advice as to how they should proceed. Shareholders who hold Shares or Partly Paid Shares on behalf of persons whose registered address is not in Australia are responsible for ensuring that accepting the Offer does not breach securities laws in the relevant overseas jurisdictions. By submitting an Entitlement and Acceptance Form together with full payment of the Application Money, you will be deemed to have made the representations and warranties, on your behalf and any of your clients for whom you are acting as nominee.

Following the repayment of an outstanding bridging loan (the African Lion Facility), the Company intends to use the funds raised by the Offer to complete part of the first phase of the bankable feasibility study for the Chaketma Phosphate Project and, in parallel, produce a preliminary feasibility study which covers the five pillars of geology, metallurgy, environmental and social impact assessment, water and key project infrastructure.
The funds raised by the Offer will also cover the working capital needs of the Company. On completion of the Offer, the Directors believe that the Company will have sufficient working capital to achieve the above objectives. The Company anticipates that it will require further funds in April 2015 as further discussed in the risk factor Future capital requirements at Section 5 of this Offer Document. If more than the minimum amount is raised the Company will use the additional funds to further progress the bankable feasibility study for the Chaketma Phosphate Project.

The above table is a statement of present intentions as at the date of this Offer Document. As with any budget, intervening events and new circumstances have the potential to affect the manner in which the funds are ultimately applied. The Company reserves the right to alter the way funds are applied on this basis.

The Directors do not intend to allocate any of the Shortfall Offer to any Shareholders (including the Substantial Shareholders and Directors named above) who will be acting as subunderwriters to the Underwriter of the Offer.
The potential effect that the Offer will have on the control of the Company will depend on various factors. Particularly, the effect on control will depend on the take up by Participating Shareholders of their Entitlement, and the subsequent placing of any Shortfall pursuant to the Shortfall Offer.
If all Participating Shareholders each subscribe for their full Entitlement, then each Participating Shareholder’s percentage ownership interest (and voting power) in the Company will remain the same and there will be no effect on the control of the Company.
If a Participating Shareholder does not take up all of their Entitlement, its percentage ownership interest (and voting power) in the Company may be diluted. The proportional percentage ownership interests (and voting power) of Non Participating Shareholders may also be diluted because such Shareholders are not entitled to take up New Shares under the Shortfall Offer.
The tables below set out various take-up scenarios (on a fully diluted basis taking into account the full exercise of all Sub underwriter Options, however, Shareholders should note that the grant of the Sub underwriter Options is subject to Shareholder approval and any exercise of Sub underwriter Options is subject to section 606 of the Corporations Act (see Section 3.5 below)):

The Company expressly disclaims any responsibility for ensuring that you do not breach section 606 as a result of applying for any New Shares under the Shortfall Offer.
If you may be at risk of exceeding the 20% voting power threshold in section 606 or increasing your voting power from a position above 20% as a result of applying for any New Shares under the Shortfall Offer, you should seek professional advice before making such application.
The sub underwriters must also have regard to, and comply with, section 606 when exercising any Sub underwriter Options granted in connection with any sub underwriting of this Offer.
3.6 Dividend Policy

Section 4 Debt facilities
4.1 African Lion Facility
On 5 August 2014 Celamin announced to ASX that it entered into a $2 million Working Capital Loan Agreement with African Lion. The terms of the African Lion Facility enabled Celamin to draw down up to $2 million from African Lion to meet financial obligations for the Chaketma Phosphate Project, operating costs and for general working capital needs. The African Lion Facility was increased on 30 September 2014 to a maximum commitment of up to $2.5 million.
African Lion is a Substantial Shareholder with a 12.12% interest in Celamin.
The African Lion Facility provides for the repayment or set off of the amounts drawn down under the loan by undertaking a capital raising, such as the Offer. Otherwise the loan is repayable by 31 December 2014, subject to extension at the discretion of African Lion. There is a commitment fee of 5% and interest at 10% per annum payable on the loan. Rollover of the loan beyond 31 December 2014 and events of default attract a rollover fee of 5% and a 20% rate of interest. A security interest is required to be granted to AFL by 8 December 2014 which would require shareholder approval if the loan is not converted or repaid beforehand. The Subsidiary, the holder of Celamin's interest in the Chaketma Phosphate Project has guaranteed the loan.
It is intended that the loan be set off against African Lion's entitlement under the Offer and its sub underwriting commitment.

Section 5 Financial Information
The Company lodged its Annual Report to Shareholders - 30 June 2014 ( Annual Report ) on 30 September 2014. Shareholders should refer to the Annual Report which is available on the Company’s website (www.celaminnl.com.au) and related announcements on the ASX website (www.asx.com.au) should they wish to obtain more detailed disclosures and commentary on historical financial information. Investors should note that the past price performance of the Company’s shares provides no guidance as to future price performance.
30
Section 6 Risk Factors
6.1 Introduction
The Company’s operations are subject to a number of risks which may impact on its future performance and forecasts. Before subscribing for New Shares, Shareholders should carefully consider and evaluate the Company and its business and whether the New Shares are suitable to acquire, having regard to their own investment objectives and financial circumstances and taking into consideration the material Risk Factors, as set out below.
The Risk Factors set out below are not exhaustive. Shareholders should examine the full content of this Offer Document, information released by the Company on the ASX and may wish to consult their financial or other advisers before deciding to apply for New Shares.
6.2 General risks
This Section identifies the areas the Company regards as the general risks of any investment in securities:
-
(a) economic conditions in Australia and globally;
-
(b) investor sentiment in local and international share markets;
-
(c) changes in interest rates and the rate of inflation;
-
(d) changes to government regulation, policy or legislation;
-
(e) seasonal fluctuations in business;
-
(f) industrial disputes;
-
(g) share investment risk;
-
(h) liquidity and realisation risk;
-
(i) changes to accounting or financial reporting standards;
-
(j) political instability or war; and
-
(k) other economic and political risks.
The Company’s future revenues, operating costs and the price at which Shares trade on ASX can be affected by all of the factors described above. Accordingly, the future profitability of the Company and price at which New Shares issued in relation to the Offer trade on ASX may be affected by factors which are beyond the control of the Company.
- 6.2.1 Securities investment risk
Applicants should be aware that there are risks associated with any securities investment. Securities listed on the stock market, and in particular securities of mining and exploration companies have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated to the operating performances of such companies.
These factors may materially and adversely affect the market price of the securities regardless of the Company’s performance. General factors that may impact the market price of Shares include economic conditions in both Australia and internationally, investor sentiment and local and international share market conditions, changes in interest rates and the rate of inflation, variations in commodity process, the global security situation and the possibility of terrorist disturbances, changes to government regulation, policy or legislation, changes which may occur to the taxation of companies as a result of changes in Australian and foreign taxation laws, changes to the system of dividend imputation in Australia, and changes in exchange rates.
31
There is no guarantee as to the profitability, dividends, return on capital or the price at which securities in the Company may trade on the market. There is also no assurance that an active trading market for securities in the Company can be sustained.
6.2.2 Liquidity risk
There can be no assurance that there will continue to be an active market for Shares or that the price of Shares will increase.
There may be relatively few buyers or sellers of Shares on ASX at any given time. This may affect the volatility of the market price of Shares. It may also affect the prevailing market price at which Shareholders in the Company are able to sell their securities in the Company. This may result in Shareholder receiving a market price for their Shares that is less or more than the price paid.
6.2.3 Economic Risk
Changes in the general economic climate in which the Company operates may adversely affect the financial performance of the Company. Factors that may contribute to that general economic climate include the level of direct and indirect competition against the Company, industrial disruption, the rate of growth of gross domestic product in economies to which the Company’s products may be sold, interest rates and the rate of inflation.
6.2.4 Legislative
Changes in relevant taxes, legal and administration regimes, accounting practices and government policies may adversely affect the financial performance of the Company.
6.3 Specific risks
This Section identifies the areas the Company regards as the specific risks to an investment in the Company.
6.3.1 Future capital requirements
The primary purposes of the Offer is to raise funds to repay the loan under the African Lion Facility and to meet the Company's expenditure obligations in relation to the Chaketma Phosphate Project. Details of the Company’s current intentions with respect to the use of the proceeds of the Offer are set out in Section 3 of this Offer Document. Information regarding the Chaketma Phosphate Project, including the Company’s capital expenditure requirements on the Chaketma Phosphate Project can be accessed from the Company’s website (www.celaminnl.com.au) and is included in the Company’s announcements to the ASX. Information regarding the African Lion Facility is set out in Section 4 of this Offer Document.
Without the capital raising under the Offer, the Company's current cash resources will not be sufficient to repay the loan under the African Lion Facility nor fund its expenditure obligation in relation to the Chaketma Phosphate Project in the near term.
The Company will also require additional funding in the future to meet its further expenditure obligations in respect of the Chaketma Phosphate Project. The Company anticipates that it will require further funds in April 2015. The terms of the Underwriting Agreement require the Underwriter’s consent to any new share issues (or other alterations of capital of the Company) within 6 months of the date of the Underwriting Agreement. In addition, in the event that the Company is un-able to issue the Sub underwriter Options, for example if Shareholders do not approve the issue, the Company may be required to make an equivalent cash payment based on a Black-Scholes calculation, which could further deplete the Company’s available cash resources.
No assurances can be made that appropriate capital or funding, if and when needed, will be available on terms favourable to the Company or at all. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be required to reduce, delay or suspend its operations. This could have a material adverse effect on the Company's activities.
32
In addition, should the Company be unable to raise capital, there is a material uncertainty as to whether the Company will be able to continue as a going concern.
6.3.2 Further financing requirements .
The Company’s success may depend on the Company’s ability to raise further capital. The Company will require further substantial additional funds to conduct mineral exploration and development activities on all of the Company’s tenements. There is no assurance whatsoever that funds will be available from any source or, if available, that they can be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company. If funds are not available in the amounts required to achieve the Company’s business strategy, the Company would be unable to realise the Company’s objectives. This could cause the loss of all or part of your investment. To date the Company has had no material source of revenue. The Company’s ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon;
-
(a) exploration and development of any mineral property the Company identifies; and
-
(b) the Company’s ability to generate revenues and profitably operate a mine on any mineral property the Company identifies.
-
6.3.3 Termination by Underwriter and terms of underwriting
In the event that a termination event occurs pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement (see description of termination events at Section 6.5) and the Underwriter terminates the Underwriting Agreement, the Offer is unlikely to raise the full amount sought. Alternatives for future funding would need to be considered by the Company (see the risk of future funding above). The Underwriting Agreement and agreements between the Company and several cornerstone priority sub-underwriters contain indemnities given by the Company. In the event of non-compliance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement or if an application for a declaration of unacceptable circumstances is brought by any party at the Takeovers Panel, the Company may be required to pay any costs or losses incurred by the Underwriter or such cornerstone priority sub-underwriters. This could require the Company to raise further capital and impact on the ability of the Company to meet its objectives.
6.3.4 Geopolitical risks
Politics on a global, regional or local scale could impact the Company’s operations, its access to certain countries and its right to continue operating in a particular country. Acts of terrorism or outbreak of war may disrupt or prevent the Company from operating its business programs. The Company will be subject to the risks associated with operating in Tunisia. These risks may include economic, social or political instability or change, hyperinflation, currency non convertibility and instability and changes of law affecting foreign ownership, government participation, taxation, working conditions, exchange control, exploration licensing, export duties, repatriation of income or return of capital, environmental protection, labour relations and government control over mineral properties.
Tunisia is a constitutional republic, with a President who serves as head of state, a Prime Minister who serves as head of the Government, a bicameral legislature and a legal system that is based on the French Civil Code and Islamic law.
In October 2013 the Governing Islamist party, Ennahda, agreed to hand over power to caretaker government of independent figures tasked with organising fresh elections in 2014. In December 2013 Ennahda and the mainly secular opposition agreed on the appointment of Mehdi Jomaa as head of the interim government. In January 2014 Tunisia’s interim parliament passed the country's first constitution since President Ben Ali was ousted in 2011. Prime minister-designate Mehdi Jomaa formed a cabinet of independents and technocrats, to govern until new elections. In March 2014 President Marzouki lifted the state of emergency imposed in 2011 during the revolution that toppled his predecessor, Zine el Abidine Ben Ali. In May 2014 Tunisia's interim parliament approved a new electoral law to govern legislative and presidential elections. The legislative elections were recently held at the end of 26 October 2014 in which
33
the Nida Tunis party, led by Beji Caid Essebsi, won 85 of the 217 seats in parliament, giving it the right to name a prime minister and lead a coalition government. These elections will be followed by the Presidential election which is due to be held in late November 2014.
There is the risk that the associated political changes may lead to instability and may affect the operations of the Company and the value of its Shares.
6.3.5 Sovereign risks
Tunisia may be subject to social and economic uncertainty. Any civil and/or political unrest and outbreaks of hostilities in Tunisia could affect the Company's access to its tenements and subsequent exploration and development. Adverse changes in government policies or legislation in Tunisia affecting foreign ownership of mineral interests, taxation, profit repatriation, royalties, land access, labour relations and mining exploration activities may affect the operations of the Company.
6.3.6 Joint ventures
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Celamin Limited, is party to a joint venture in respect of the Chaketma Phosphate Project which requires it to contribute to joint venture expenditure and associated costs. If these costs are unable to be met, there may be a default under the joint venture agreement and Celamin Limited may be required to surrender its interest in the joint venture and/or withdraw from the joint venture. If Celamin Limited withdraws from the joint venture, the Company will no longer hold any interest in the Chaketma Phosphate Project.
The Company must ensure that Celamin Limited has sufficient capital to meet any joint venture funding obligations. This is likely to require the Company to raise additional funds over the course of the joint venture. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise finance on acceptable terms or within the specified timeframe. The Company is also reliant on the joint venture partner complying with its obligations under the agreement.
6.3.7 Operational risks
The business of mining and mineral exploration, development and production by its nature involves significant risks. The business depends on, among other things, successful exploration and identification of mineral reserves, security of tenure, the availability of adequate funding, satisfactory performance of mining operations, weather conditions, availability and cost of consumables and plant and equipment and skilled labour when required, good industrial relations and competent management. Profitability and asset values can be affected by unforseen changes in operating circumstances, mineral reserves and geotechnical considerations. Mineral exploration and development are high risk undertakings. There can be no assurance that exploration of the projects the Company currently has an interest in will result in the discovery of an economic mineral deposit. If the Company makes a discovery, there can be no assurance that the technical, financial and regulatory hurdles can be cleared and profitable, commercial production achieved. There are also risks associated with the financial failure, default or dispute with, any participant in a joint venture or contractual arrangements to which the Company is or may become party to.
6.3.8 Land access and tenement renewal
The Company’s tenements including any projects the Company will, or may, in the future acquire are subject to applicable local laws and regulations and there is no guarantee that any tenement applications or conversions will be granted. The Company’s tenements are subject to conditions that are imposed by each relevant jurisdiction and failure to comply with these conditions may render the permits liable to forfeiture. All of the Company’s tenements will be subject to renewal. Renewal of the term of each tenement is subject to the applicable legislation. If a tenement is not renewed for any reason, the Company may lose the opportunity to develop and discover any mineral resources on that tenement which may in turn affect the operations and value of the Company.
34
6.3.9 Environmental risks
All exploration projects and mining operations have an impact on the environment, particularly advanced exploration and mine development. The Company endeavours to conduct its activities to the highest standard of environmental obligation, including compliance with all environmental laws. However, as with all exploration and mining activities, the Company’s operations are expected to have an impact on the environment. There are also risks inherent in the Company’s activities including accidental leakages, spills or other unforeseen circumstances that could subject the Company to extensive liability and impact upon the financial viability of the Company.
Further, the Company may require approval from relevant regulatory authorities before undertaking activities that are likely to impact the environment. If the Company fails to obtain these approvals it will be prevented from undertaking those activities. The Company cannot predict what further legislation and regulations may govern mining, and may impose significant environmental obligations on the Company which may lead to increased costs to the Company.
6.3.10 Key management
The Company is committed to providing an attractive employment environment, conditions and prospects to assist in retaining its key senior management personnel. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to retain these key personnel. The loss of key personnel or the inability to recruit and retain high calibre staff could have a material adverse effect on the Company and the value of its Shares.
Currently, the Company has personnel who are key to its business. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to retain sufficiently qualified personnel. The inability to do so could have a significant adverse impact on the financial performance of the Company and its ability to implement its business plans and capitalise on both its existing and potential investment opportunities.
6.3.11 Share price fluctuations
The market price of the Company’s shares will fluctuate due to various factors, many of which are non specific to the Company, including recommendations by brokers and analysts, Australian, Tunisian and international general economic conditions, inflation rates, interest rates, changes in government, fiscal, monetary and regulatory policies, global geo political events and hostilities, acts of terrorism and investor perceptions. These fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the Company’s shares. A lack of liquidity may also affect the value of the Company’s shares.
Factors such as inflation, currency fluctuation, interest rates and supply and demand have an impact on operating costs, commodity prices and stock market prices. The Company’s future revenues, the economic viability of its projects, the market price for its listed securities, and its ability to raise further capital may be affected by these factors, which are beyond the Company’s control.
6.3.12 Changes in accounting policy
The Company is subject to the usual business risk that there may be changes in accounting policies which impact the Company both in Australia and in Tunisia and any other relevant jurisdiction.
6.3.13 Taxation
Future changes in Australian taxation law, including changes in interpretation or application of the law by the courts or taxation authorities in Australia, may affect taxation treatment of an investment in the Company's shares, or the holding and disposal of those shares.
Further, changes in tax law, or changes in the way tax law is expected to be interpreted, in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates, may impact the future tax liabilities of the Company.
35
Foreign Shareholders should seek their own taxation advice as the company cannot make any representations to taxation in other jurisdictions.
6.3.14 Phosphate market risks
The Company intends to derive its revenue from the extraction and sale of phosphate rock from the Chaketma Phosphate Project. The price which the Company may receive for its phosphate products depends on numerous factors that are beyond the Company’s control and are inherently unpredictable, including general global economic conditions, currency exchange rates, increases of supply by competitors, shipping costs, alternative product development and changes in the demand for phosphate. The viability of the Chaketma Phosphate Project is dependent upon the Company entering into a joint venture arrangement or off-take agreement with a customer or customers on acceptable terms and there is a risk that acceptable off-take arrangements may not eventuate. The additional growth opportunities are also exposed to a risk that the Company may not be able to achieve an acceptable price for the phosphate products which it hopes to produce, or be able to enter into viable off-take agreements for its anticipated fertiliser products.
6.3.15 World economic conditions
The effects of global financial markets on Australia are unknown and unpredictable. As a result of this, conditions in the credit markets have continued to be uncertain and risk adverse. These adverse conditions may make it harder for the Company to raise additional funds to finance the continued development of its business and may reduce the demand for phosphate, which, at least in the short term, could reduce the value of the Company's mineral exploration properties. Continued adverse economic conditions could adversely affect the Company’s liquidity, results of operations and financial condition.
6.3.16 Mining industry risks
The mining business is generally subject to risks and hazards, including quantity of production, quality of the ore, environmental hazards, industrial accidents, the encountering of unusual or unexpected geological formations, cave-ins, flooding, earthquakes and periodic interruptions due to inclement or hazardous weather conditions. These occurrences could result in damage to, or destruction of, the Company’s mineral properties or production facilities, personal injury or death, environmental damage, reduced production and delays in mining, asset writedowns, monetary losses and possible legal liability. The Company could incur significant costs that could adversely affect the Company’s results of operation. Insurance fully covering many environmental risks (including potential liability for pollution or other hazards as a result of disposal of waste products occurring from exploration and production) is not generally available to the Company or to other companies in the industry. What liability insurance the Company carries may not be adequate to cover any claim.
Mineral exploration and mining may be hampered by circumstances beyond the control of the Company, and are speculative operations which by their nature are subject to a number of inherent risks, including the risk factors identified at Sections 6.3.17 to 6.3.25 below.
6.3.17 Exploration risks
Currently, the Company’s main activity is exploration. The success of the Company in that activity depends on the delineation of economically minable reserves and resources, access to required development capital, movement in the price of commodities, securing and maintaining title to the Company’s existing exploration and proposed mining tenements and obtaining all consents and approvals necessary for the conduct of its exploration activities.
Exploration on the Company’s existing exploration and proposed mining tenements may be unsuccessful, and therefore may result in a reduction of the value of those tenements, diminution in the cash reserves of the Company and possible relinquishment of tenements.
36
6.3.18 Production risk
There are inherent risks and uncertainties associated with developing a mine from the exploration stage through to production, including those which arise out of dealings with counterparties (including joint venture partners, mineral processors and financiers) and Government Agencies, and those which are beyond the control of the mine developer, including adverse weather conditions and interruptions in supply chains or transport routes. During the development period the anticipated economic feasibility of the mine may deteriorate owing to cyclical or sustained changes in, amongst other things, commodity prices, funding costs or cost inflation associated with capital expenditure. Although it is the Company’s plan to concentrate on projects with the potential for near term production, there is no guarantee that any project will achieve production within the time period or time periods contemplated by the Company, in a faster time period than alternate projects available to the Company, or at all.
6.3.19 Facility risks
The planning, construction and operation of phosphate mining and beneficiation facilities is a complex undertaking that involves various elements including engineering, design, procurement of equipment, transportation, water resources, construction and obtaining financing and required permits related thereto.
The Company will need to obtain substantial equity and/or debt financing from third parties to fund the construction and development of the Company’s proposed phosphate mining and beneficiation facilities. The Company does not have any definitive agreements or understandings at this time to obtain this financing and there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in doing so. If the Company is not successful obtaining the necessary permits and approvals or raising the necessary funds, in a timely manner, or at all, in order to plan, construct or operate the mining and beneficiation facilities, this would have material adverse affect on the Company’s business and financial condition.
6.3.20 Resource estimates
Resource estimates are expressions of judgment based on knowledge, experience and industry practice.
There are risks associated with such estimates. Resource estimates are necessarily imprecise and depend to some extent on interpretations, which may ultimately prove to be inaccurate and require adjustment. Downward adjustments to resource estimates could adversely impact the Company’s future plans and ultimately its financial performance and value.
6.3.21 Regulatory and permitting delays
The Company may face delays in obtaining mining permits and environmental permits. Such delays could jeopardize financing, if any, in which case the Company would have to delay or abandon work on the properties. Any such delay may impact negatively on the value of the Company and its Shares.
6.3.22 Estimation of mineral Reserves
Reserve estimates, including the economic recovery of ore, will require us to make assumptions about recovery costs and market prices. Reserve estimation is, by its nature, an imprecise and subjective process and the accuracy of such estimates is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation, judgment and experience. The economic feasibility of properties will be based upon the Company’s estimates of the size and grade of ore reserves, metallurgical recoveries, production rates, capital and operating costs, and the future price of phosphate and diamonds. If such estimates are incorrect or vary substantially it could affect the Company’s ability to develop an economical mine and would reduce the value of your investment. Further, it may take many years from the initial phase of drilling before production is possible and, during that time, the economic feasibility of exploiting a discovery may change.
37
6.3.23 Insurance
The Company, where economically feasible, insures its operations in accordance with industry practice. However, in certain circumstances, the Company’s insurance (if obtained) may not be of a nature or level to provide adequate insurance cover. The occurrence of an event that is not covered or fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of the Company. Insurance of all risks associated with mineral exploration and development is not always available and where available the costs can be prohibitive.
6.3.24 Ore Reserves are wasting assets
The Company’s future ore reserve and production, if any, will decline as a result of the exhaustion of reserves and possible closure of any mine that might be developed. Eventually, at some unknown time in the future, all of the economically extractable ore will be removed from the properties, and there will be no ore remaining unless the Company is successful in near mine site exploration to extend the life of the mining operation. This is called depletion of reserves.
Ultimately, the Company must acquire or operate other properties in order to continue as an on going business. The Company’s success in continuing to develop reserves, if any, will affect the value of your investment.
Unforeseen changes in the phosphate rock properties may result in the product failing to meet the required specifications, and accordingly the Company can make no assurance that the product will meet required specifications at any time
The mineralogical composition of phosphate bearing rocks is subject to natural variability resulting in differences in physical properties, levels of impurities and available phosphorus content. Fertiliser manufacturers and farmers require phosphate concentrate or rock to be delivered which meet specified tolerances on elemental impurities and quantity of available phosphorus.
The Company has conducted a range of tests on phosphate rock from the Chaketma Phosphate Project. These tests are necessarily conducted on discrete samples of rock taken from drill holes or excavations. Assumptions are then made regarding the spatial continuity of the phosphate rock properties. Unforeseen changes in the phosphate rock properties may result in the product failing to meet the required specifications, and accordingly the Company can make no assurance that the product will meet required specifications at this time.
6.3.25 Environmental and other governmental regulations
The Company may be required to comply with various laws and regulations pertaining to exploration, development and the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment in the countries that the Company operates, all of which can increase the costs and time required to attain operations. The Company may have to obtain exploration, development and environmental permits, licenses or approvals that may be required for the Company’s operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining, if required, a permit to commence exploration, development and operation, or that such permit can be obtained in a timely basis. If the Company is unsuccessful in obtaining the required permits it may adversely affect the Company’s ability to carry on business which will result in a loss of value of Shares.
6.3.26 Dilution risk
If you are:
-
(a) a Participating Shareholder and you do not take up all or part of your Entitlement under the Offer; or
-
(b) a Non-Participating Shareholder and therefore, are not eligible to participate under the Offer,
38
your percentage shareholding in the Company is likely to be significantly diluted as a result of the completion of the Offer.
This is because New Shares representing Entitlements that are not exercised will be dealt with:
-
(a) first, under the Shortfall Offer by Participating Shareholders applying for New Shares in excess of their respective Entitlements (that is, Additional Shares); and
-
(b) second, under the Underwriting Agreement.
See Section 3.4 of this Offer Document for further information as to the dilutionary effect of the issue of New Shares upon Shareholders who do not participate, or who are ineligible to participate, in the Offer.
6.3.27 No guarantee of dividends
The Company has not since admission to the official list of the ASX, and does not currently, pay dividends. There is no guarantee that dividends will be paid on the New Shares in the future as this is a matter that depends on the financial performance or assets of the Company.
- 6.3.28 Counterparty risk — joint venture counterparties and contractors
There is a risk of financial failure, insolvency and/or default by:
-
(a) participants in any joint venture to which the Company is or may become a party; and
-
(b) the contractors and other service providers used by the Company in its activities.
While the Company uses best practices to mitigate these risks an event of default or insolvency may lead to an adverse effect on the business of the Company and a corresponding effect on the value of Shares.
