EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
Background Information
On 13 March 2014, Celamin Holdings NL (‘CNL’ or ‘the Company’) announced that it was undertaking a placement of 47,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares in the Company at an issue price of $0.04 (4 cents) per share raising $1,880,000 before costs.
It was noted that the allotment and issue of fully paid ordinary shares through this placement would be made utilising the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 and the additional 10% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A, which was approved by shareholders at the Company’s 2013 Annual General Meeting held on 19 November 2013. Subsequent to this announcement, the allotment and issue of the fully paid ordinary shares from this placement were carried out on 19 March 2014.
The Company announced the completion of the placement on 19 March 2014 were issued to sophisticated investors.
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that, subject to specified exceptions, shareholder approval is required for any issue of, or agreement to issue, equity securities (including securities with rights of conversion to shares or other equity securities, such as options or convertible notes) during any twelve month period if the number of securities to be issued (or if convertible securities, the maximum number of ordinary securities into which the convertible securities can be converted) exceeds 15% of the number of ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that twelve month period.
One circumstance where an issue of equity securities is not taken into account in the calculation of this 15% limit is where the issue is approved by shareholders at a general meeting.
ASX Listing Rule 7.4 provides that, where a company's shareholders ratify a previous issue of securities made without approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (provided that the previous issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1), those securities will be deemed to have been issued with shareholder approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
The following Resolution seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the prior issue of the fully paid ordinary shares on 19 March 2014.
Resolution 1: Ratification of Prior Share Issue
The Company is seeking shareholder approval to ratify the issue of 47,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares to Sophisticated Investors on or about 19 March 2014. It is noted that on 19 March 2014, the Company issued a total of 47,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares, of which 28,300,797 fully paid ordinary shares were issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and the remaining 18,699,203 fully paid ordinary shares issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.
As stated above, ASX Listing Rule 7.4 provides that a company may reinstate its capacity to issue up to 15% of the ordinary securities on issue in a 12 month period if shareholders ratify the previous issue of securities and the issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1.
ASX Listing Rule 7.5 requires that the following information be provided to shareholders for the purpose of obtaining shareholder approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4:
-
(a) the total number of fully paid ordinary shares in the Company that were issued is 47,000,000;
-
(b) the Shares were issued at a price of $0.04 (4 cents) per share;
-
(c) the Shares allotted and issued rank equally with the existing Shares on issue;
-
(d) the Shares were allotted and issued to the following investors;
| African Lion 3 Limited | 10,000,000 shares |
|---|---|
| Polo Resources Limited | 30,000,000 shares |
| Craig Chapman | 5,000,000 shares |
| Gwynvill Group | 2,000,000 shares |
| Total | 47,000,000 shares |
(e) the funds raised will be used to fund the Company’s Chaketma Phosphate Project and working capital commitments.
The Company encourages all Shareholders to cast their votes in relation to Resolution 1 and if Shareholders choose to appoint a proxy, Shareholders are encouraged to 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.
RECOMMENDATION – VOTE IN FAVOUR OF THE RESOLUTIONS
The Directors consider that there are a number of benefits to Celamin Holdings NL in issuing the securities pursuant to this Placement, including the funding required to continue work on the Company’s Chaketma Phosphate Project and assist with working capital requirements of the Company.
Further, the approval by Shareholders of the Resolutions will enable Celamin Holdings NL to raise additional capital through the subsequent issue of equity securities to other third parties without the need to obtain further Shareholder approval.
Accordingly, your Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote IN FAVOUR OF the Resolutions.
