3.3 Relevant Legislation - Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, Listing Rule 10.11 and Listing Rule 7.1
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits a public company from giving a Financial Benefit to a Related Party of the public company unless providing the benefit falls within a prescribed exception to the general prohibition. Relevantly, there is an exception if the company first obtains the approval of its shareholders in a general meeting in circumstances where certain requirements specified in Chapter 2E in relation to the convening of that meeting have been met ( Shareholder Approval Exception ).
A “Related Party” is defined widely in section 228 of the Corporations Act and includes, relevantly, a director (or proposed director) of a public company, any entity that controls (or is reasonably likely to control) a public company, and any entity that is controlled by a person or entity which is otherwise a Related Party, or there are reasonable grounds to believe that a person/entity is likely to become a Related Party of the public company.
A “Financial Benefit” for the purposes of the Corporations Act has a very wide meaning. It includes the public company paying money or issuing securities to the Related Party. In determining whether or not a financial benefit is being given, it is necessary to look to the economic and commercial substance and effect of what the public company is doing (rather than just the legal form). Any consideration which is given for the financial benefit is to be disregarded, even if it is full or adequate.
Listing Rule 10.11
Listing Rule 10.11 provides that an entity must not issue or agree to issue equity securities without the approval of holders of ordinary securities to related parties (or a person whose relationship with the entity or a related party is in ASX’s opinion such that approval should be obtained) unless an exception applies.
Listing Rule 7.1 - Issues exceeding 15% of capital
Listing Rule 7.1 prohibits a listed company, except in certain cases, from issuing in any 12 month period new Equity Securities equivalent in number to more than 15% of the total number of ordinary securities on issue at the beginning of the 12 month period ( 15% Capacity ) without the prior approval of a majority of shareholders, or the issue otherwise comes within one of the exceptions to Listing Rule 7.1 ( 15% Rule ). However, under Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 14), if approval is being sought under Listing Rules 10.11 or
Platina Resources Limited Notice of GM
Page 7 of 19
10.14, approval will not be required under Listing Rule 7.1. Therefore, the issue of the Options to Directors under Resolutions Three and Four ( Related Party Resolutions ), if passed, will not count towards the Company’s 15% Capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
3.4 Shareholder Approval Requirement
Resolutions Three and Four, if passed, will confer financial benefits and involve the issue of Options to the Directors being Related Parties of the Company.
Therefore, the Company seeks to obtain Shareholder approval in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.11.
3.5 Information for Shareholders
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act
For the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and for all other purposes the following information is provided to shareholders:
(a) The Related Party to whom the Related Party Resolutions would permit the financial benefit to be given (section 219(1)(a))
The proposed financial benefit will be given to Mr John Anderson and Mr Corey Nolan, who are Directors of the Company and therefore each of them is a Related Party.
(b)
The nature of the financial benefit (section 219(1)(b))
The nature of the proposed financial benefit to be given on the approval of the Related Party Resolutions is the issue to the Related Parties of the following:
-
(1) 2,000,000 Options to be issued to Mr John Anderson;
-
(2) 4,000,000 Options to be issued to Mr Corey Nolan;
Each Option is exercisable at $0.20 and expires on 31 December 2019.
Please refer to Schedule 1 for the remainder of the terms of the Options.
(c)
Directors’ recommendation (section 219(1)(c))
With respect to Resolution Three , the Directors (with Mr John Anderson abstaining) recommend that you vote in favour of Resolution Three for the following reasons:
-
(i) the grant of Options as proposed to Mr John Anderson will provide him with reward and incentive for future services, which he will provide to the Company to further the progress of the Company;
-
(ii) the Options are not intended as a substitute for salary or wages or as a means for compensation for past services rendered; and
-
(iii) in the Company’s circumstances as they existed as at the date of this Explanatory Memorandum, the Directors considered that the incentive provided a cost-effective and efficient incentive as opposed to alternative forms of incentives (eg cash bonuses, increased remuneration). However, it must be recognised that there will be an opportunity cost to the Company, being the price at which the Company could grant the Options to a third party.
With respect to Resolution Four , the Directors (with Mr Corey Nolan abstaining) recommend that you vote in favour of Resolution Four for the following reasons:
- (i) the grant of Options as proposed to Mr Corey Nolan will provide him with reward and incentive for future services, which he will provide to the Company to further the progress of the Company;

-
(ii) the Options are not intended as a substitute for salary or wages or as a means for compensation for past services rendered; and
-
(iii) in the Company’s circumstances as they existed as at the date of this Explanatory Memorandum, the Directors considered that the incentive provided a cost-effective and efficient incentive as opposed to alternative forms of incentives (eg cash bonuses, increased remuneration). However, it must be recognised that there will be an opportunity cost to the Company, being the price at which the Company could grant the Options to a third party.
(d) Directors’ Interest and other remuneration (section 219(1)(d))
Mr John Anderson
Mr John Anderson has a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution Three, as it is proposed that Options be granted to him (or his respective nominee) as set out in Resolution Three.
Excluding the Options proposed to be issued pursuant to Resolution Three, Mr John Anderson (and entities associated with him) does not currently hold any securities in the Company.
Other than the Options to be issued to Mr John Anderson pursuant to Resolution Three, Mr John Anderson shall receive fees of $50,000 per annum from the Company for his services as a NonExecutive Director.
Mr Corey Nolan
Mr Corey Nolan has a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution Four, as it is proposed that Options be granted to him (or his respective nominee) as set out in Resolution Four.
Excluding the Options proposed to be issued pursuant to Resolution Four, Mr Corey Nolan (and entities associated with him) does not currently hold any securities in the Company.
Other than the Options to be issued to Mr Corey Nolan pursuant to Resolution Four, Mr Corey Nolan shall receive a base salary of $323,000 per annum (including superannuation) from the Company for his services as managing director and chief executive officer.
- (e) Valuation
The Options are not currently quoted on the ASX and as such have no market value. The Options each grant the holder thereof a right of grant of one ordinary share in the Company upon exercise of the Option and payment of the exercise price of the Option described above. Accordingly, the Options may have a present value at the date of their grant.
The Options may acquire future value dependent upon the extent to which the Share price exceeds the exercise price of the Options during the term of the Options.
As a general proposition, options to subscribe for ordinary fully paid shares in a company have value. Various factors impact upon the value of options including things such as:
-
(i) the period outstanding before the expiry date of the options;
-
(ii) the exercise price of the options relative to the underlying price or value of the securities into which they may be converted;
-
(iii) the proportion of the issued capital as expanded consequent upon exercise represented by the shares issued upon exercise (i.e. whether or not the shares that might be acquired upon exercise of the options represent a controlling or other significant interest);
-
(iv) the value of the shares into which the options may be converted; and
-
(v) whether or not the options are listed (i.e. readily capable of being liquidated);
Platina Resources Limited Notice of GM
Page 9 of 19
There are various formulae which can be applied to determining the theoretical value of options (including the formula known as the Black- Scholes Model option valuation formula).
The Company has estimated the value of the Options and has done so using the Black-Scholes Model, which is the most widely used and recognised model for pricing options. The value of an option calculated by the Black-Scholes Model is a function of the relationship between a number of variables, being the share price, the exercise price, the time to expiry, the risk-free interest rate and the volatility of the Company’s underlying share price.
Inherent in the application of the Black-Scholes Model are a number of inputs, some of which must be assumed. The data relied upon in applying the Black-Scholes Model was:
-
(1) The exercise price of the options being $0.20;
-
(2) Exercise date being on or before 31 December 2019;
-
(3) A volatility measure of 100%;
-
(4) A risk-free interest rate of 2.04%; and
-
(5) A nil dividend yield.
Based on this information, the Company has adopted an indicative value for the Options of $0.02 each.
On that basis, the respective value of the Options to be issued pursuant to Resolutions Three and Four are as follows:
Mr John Anderson- $40,000
Mr Corey Nolan - $80,000
- (f) Any other information that is reasonably required by shareholders to make a decision and that is known to the Company or any of its Directors
There is no other information known to the Company or any of its directors save and except as follows:
Market Price movements
The Option valuation noted above is based on a market price per Share of $0.083 which was the price at which Shares were traded on ASX at the time of preparing this information.
There is a possibility that the market price of the Shares will change up to the date of the Meeting.
Trading History
In the 12 months prior to preparation of this Notice, the Company’s trading history is as follows:
-
the highest trading price was $0.265 on 13 November 2017; and
-
the lowest trading price was $0.073 on 19 June 2018.
The trading price of the Shares on the close of trading on 28 June 2018 (being the last trading day on which the preparation of this Notice was concluded) was $0.087.
Opportunity Costs
The opportunity costs and benefits foregone by the Company issuing the Options to each of the Directors is the potentially dilutionary impact on the issued share capital of the Company (in the event that the options are exercised). Until exercised, the issue of the Options will not impact upon the number of ordinary shares on issue in the Company. To the extent that upon their exercise the dilutionary impact caused with the issue
Platina Resources Limited Notice of GM
Page 10 of 19
of shares will be detrimental to the Company, this is more than offset by the advantages accruing from the Company securing the services of experienced and skilled directors on appropriate incentive terms.
It is also considered that the potential increase of value in the Options is dependent upon a concomitant increase in the value of the Company generally.
Taxation Consequences
No stamp duty will be payable in respect of the grant of the Options. No GST will be payable by the Company in respect of the grant of the Options (or if it is then it will be recoverable as an input credit).
AASB 2 “Share Based Payments” requires that these payments shall be measured at the more readily determinable fair value of the equity instrument. Under the accounting standards this amount will be expensed in the statement of financial performance. Where the grant date and the vesting date are different the total expenditure calculated will be allocated between the two dates taking into account the terms and conditions attached to the instruments and the counterparties as well as management’s assumptions about probabilities of payments and compliance with and attainment of the set-out terms and conditions.
Dilutionary Effect
The effect that the issue of the Shares on the exercise of the Directors Options (assuming that the options are exercised) issued to the Directors under Resolutions Three and Four will mean that a further 6,000,000 Shares will be issued by the Company. The Company currently has 264,126,235 Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice. If all the Options are issued and exercised, this will take the total Shares on issue to 270,126,235. Upon exercise of the Options, Mr John Anderson will hold approximately 0.74% of the total issued capital of the Company and Mr Corey Nolan will hold approximately 1.48% of the total issued capital of the Company (assuming no further issue of shares or exercise of options).
Save as set out in this Explanatory Memorandum, the Directors are not aware of any other information that will be reasonably required by Shareholders to make a decision in relation to the benefits contemplated by the Related Party Resolutions.

The Performance Rights are otherwise to be granted on the terms of the Performance Rights Plan.
The Performance Rights will not be transferable until after they are exercised, except to a legal personal representative of Mr Nolan in the event of his death or permanent disability.
The Company will issue Shares to Mr Nolan (or his nominee) as soon as practicable after the vesting of Performance Rights. The Shares allotted will be of the same class and will rank equally with all other issued Shares in the Company at the date of issue but may remain subject to disposal restrictions in accordance with the Company’s trading policy
Platina Resources Limited Notice of GM
Page 12 of 19
and the terms of the Offer. The Company will apply for listing of the new Shares on the ASX within the period required by the Listing Rules.
If the Company reorganises its capital, Performance Rights on issue will also be reorganised in accordance with the Listing Rules, such that Mr Nolan does not receive a benefit that holders of ordinary shares do not receive.
There are no participating rights or entitlements inherent in the Performance Rights and Mr Nolan will not be entitled as a result of holding Performance Rights to vote at meetings of shareholders, receive dividends or participate in surplus profits or assets of the Company upon a winding up.
4.3 ASX Listing Rule 10.14
ASX Listing Rule 10.14 states that a listed company must not permit a director to acquire securities under an employee incentive scheme without the approval of shareholders by ordinary resolution. Mr Nolan will commence as a Director with effect from 1 August 2018. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is being sought under ASX Listing Rule 10.14 for the issue of Performance Rights to Mr Nolan.
The following information is provided to shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.15A:
-
(a) the Performance Rights will be issued to Mr Corey Nolan (or his nominee), a Director of the Company;
-
(b) the maximum number of Performance Rights to be issued is 2,000,000 and the maximum number of Shares to be issued upon vesting of the Performance Rights is 2,000,000;
-
(c) the Performance Rights will be granted for nil consideration and the Shares to be issued upon vesting of the Performance Rights will be issued for nil consideration. Accordingly, no loan has been or will be given to Mr Nolan in relation to the grant of Performance Rights under the Rights Plan and no funds will be raised from the issue or vesting of the Performance Rights;
-
(d) details of any Performance Rights issued under the Performance Rights Plan will be published in each annual report of the Company relating to a period in which Performance Rights have been issued and that approval for the issue of Performance Rights was obtained, if required, under ASX Listing Rule 10.14. Any additional personnel who become entitled to participate in the Performance Rights Plan will not participate until shareholder approval is obtained, if required, under ASX Listing Rule 10.14;
-
(e) the Performance Rights are anticipated to be issued within one month of the Meeting but will be issued no later than 3 years after the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules); and
-
(f) a voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.
4.4 ASX Listing Rule 7.1
If Shareholders approve Resolution Five pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.14, then approval is not required for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, if Resolution Five is approved and the 2,000,000 Performance Rights are issued, these will not be included in the calculation of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
4.5 Corporations Act – Chapter 2E
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits the Company from giving a financial benefit to a Related Party of the Company (which includes a director) unless either:
-
(a) the giving of the financial benefit falls within one of the exceptions to the provisions; or
-
(b) shareholder approval is obtained to the giving of the financial benefit.
The proposed issue of Shares by the Company to Mr Nolan in settlement of any vested Performance Rights constitutes the giving of a financial benefit to a Related Party of the Company.
Platina Resources Limited Notice of GM
Page 13 of 19
However, the directors (other than Mr Nolan) have determined that the proposed issue of Performance Rights constitutes reasonable remuneration given the circumstances of the Company and the position to be held by Mr Nolan. Accordingly, the proposed issue of Performance Rights to Mr Nolan falls within the “reasonable remuneration” exception set out in Section 211 of the Corporations Act so that Shareholder approval is not required for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act
4.6 Corporations Act – Chapter 2E
The Corporations Act restricts the benefits that can be given to persons who hold a “managerial or executive office” (as defined in the Corporations Act) on leaving their employment with the Company or any of its related bodies corporate.
Under Sections 200B and 200E of the Corporations Act, a company may only give a person a benefit in connection with them ceasing to hold a managerial or executive office if the benefit is approved by shareholders or an exemption applies.
The term “benefit” has a wide meaning and may include benefits resulting from the Board exercising certain discretions under the terms of Mr Nolan’s long term incentive entitlements, including the discretion to determine the accelerated vesting or automatic vesting of Performance Rights in certain circumstances (as summarised in the Explanatory Memorandum in relation to Resolution Five).
Under the terms of the Performance Rights Plan, the Board may exercise its discretion to accelerate vesting if deemed appropriate, including in connection with a termination. However, there is no trigger to vest Performance Rights upon cessation of employment and it should be noted that any vesting triggered by a change in control event is not a termination benefit. Accordingly, the default termination benefit limit is intended to apply.
4.7 Directors recommendation
Each of the Directors (excluding Mr Corey Nolan) believes that the approval in relation to the issue of the Performance Rights to Mr Corey Nolan is in the best interests of Shareholders as a whole. The Directors (excluding Mr Corey Nolan) recommend that you vote in favour of Resolution Five and each of the Directors (excluding Mr Corey Nolan) intends to, the extent not excluded, vote any Shares they own in favour of Resolution Four.
