INFORMATION CIRCULAR

(containing information as at September 24, 2013 unless indicated otherwise)

For the Annual General & Special Meeting to be held on Tuesday, October 29, 2013

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

This Information Circular is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Management of COVENTRY RESOURCES INC. (the "Company"; and or "Coventry"), for use at the Annual General & Special Meeting (the "Meeting"), of the Shareholders of the Company, to be held on Tuesday, the 29th day of October, 2013, at the time and place and for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Meeting and at any adjournment thereof. The enclosed Instrument of Proxy is solicited by management of the Company. The solicitation will be primarily by mail; however, proxies may be solicited personally or by telephone by the regular officers and employees of the Company. The cost of solicitation will be borne by the Company.

The method that holders of an interest in common shares in the capital of the Company ("Common Shares") will use to vote their respective Common Shares will depend on the manner in which such Common Shares are held by such Shareholder.

In the case of holders of CHESS Depositary Interests ("CDIs") (typically Shareholders in Australia), please refer to "Voting by CDI Holders" and "CDI Holders May Give Directions to Depositary Nominee".

In the case of registered holders of Common Shares, whether legal or beneficial (typically Shareholders in North America), please refer to "Appointment And Revocation of Proxies", "Voting of Share And Exercise Of Discretion of Proxies" and "Advice To Beneficial Shareholders" below.

APPOINTMENT AND REVOCATION OF PROXIES

The persons named in the accompanying form of Proxy are Directors and/or Officers of the Company. A SHAREHOLDER HAS THE RIGHT TO APPOINT A PERSON (WHO NEED NOT BE A SHAREHOLDER) TO ATTEND AND ACT FOR HIM ON HIS BEHALF AT THE MEETING OTHER THAN THE PERSONS NAMED IN THE ENCLOSED INSTRUMENT OF PROXY. TO EXERCISE THIS RIGHT, A SHAREHOLDER SHALL STRIKE OUT THE NAMES OF THE PERSONS NAMED IN THE INSTRUMENT OF PROXY AND INSERT THE NAME OF HIS/HER NOMINEE IN THE BLANK SPACE PROVIDED, OR COMPLETE ANOTHER INSTRUMENT OF PROXY. A PROXY WILL NOT BE VALID UNLESS IT IS DEPOSITED WITH THE COMPANY'S REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT, COMPUTERSHARE INVESTOR SERVICES INC., 100 UNIVERSITY AVENUE, 9TH FLOOR, TORONTO, ONTARIO, M5J 2Y1, OR BY TOLL FREE FAX AT 1-866-249-7775 NOT LESS THAN 48 HOURS (EXCLUDING SATURDAYS, SUNDAYS AND HOLIDAYS) BEFORE THE TIME OF THE MEETING OR ADJOURNMENT THEREOF.

The Instrument of Proxy must be signed and dated by the Shareholder or by his attorney in writing, or, if the Shareholder is a Corporation, it must either be under its common seal or signed by a duly authorized officer.

A Shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it at any time before it is exercised. In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a proxy may be revoked by instrument in writing executed by the Shareholder or by his attorney authorized in writing, or, if the Shareholder is a Corporation, it must either be under its common seal, or signed by a duly authorized officer and deposited at the Company's Registrar and Transfer Agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc., 100 University Avenue, 9th Floor, Toronto, Ontario, M5J 2Y1, at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment of it, at which the proxy is to be used, or to the Chairperson of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting or any adjournment of it. A revocation of a proxy does not affect any matter on which a vote has been taken prior to the revocation.

VOTING BY CDI HOLDERS

Many Shareholders having an interest in the Common Shares hold such interests in the form of CDIs. CHESS is the electronic settlement system used in Australia. The main difference between holding CDIs and holding Common Shares is that a holder of CDIs has beneficial ownership of the equivalent number of Common Shares instead of legal title. Legal title is held by the depositary entity, CHESS Depositary Nominees Pty Ltd. (the "Depositary Nominee"). The Common Shares registered in the name of the Depositary Nominee are held by that entity on behalf of and for the benefit of the CDI Holders.

CDI HOLDERS MAY GIVE DIRECTIONS TO DEPOSITARY NOMINEE

CDI holders are not entitled to vote at the meeting in person. However, holders of CDIs have the right to direct the Depositary Nominee how to vote in respect of their CDIs on the resolutions described in the Notice. The Depositary Nominee must vote in accordance with any direction give by a CDI holder.

If you are a CDI holder and you wish to direct the Depositary Nominee how to vote in respect of your CDI's, you should read, complete, date and sign the accompanying notice of direction and deposit it with the Company c/o Computershare Investor Services Pty Ltd. at GPO Box 242, Melbourne, Australia VIC 3001, not later than 1 a.m. Perth, Australia time on October 28, 2013 and if the Meeting is adjourned, not later than 48 hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, preceding the time of such adjourned Meeting.

The Depositary Nominee shall exercise its right to vote at the Meeting by proxy.

VOTING OF SHARES AND EXERCISE OF DISCRETION OF PROXIES

On any poll, the persons named in the enclosed Instrument of Proxy will vote the Common Shares in respect of which they are appointed. Where directions are given by the Shareholder in respect of voting for or against any resolution, the proxy holder will do so in accordance with such direction.

IN THE ABSENCE OF ANY INSTRUCTION IN THE PROXY, IT IS INTENDED THAT SUCH COMMON SHARES WILL BE VOTED IN FAVOUR OF THE MOTIONS PROPOSED TO BE MADE AT THE MEETING AS STATED UNDER THE HEADINGS IN THIS INFORMATION CIRCULAR. The Instrument of Proxy enclosed, when properly signed, confers discretionary authority with respect to amendments or variations to the matters which may properly be brought before the Meeting. At the time of printing this Information Circular, the Management of the Company is not aware that any such amendments, variations or other matters are to be presented for action at the Meeting. However, if any other matters which are not now known to the Management should properly come before the Meeting, the Proxies hereby solicited will be exercised on such matters in accordance with the best judgment of the nominee.

In order to approve a motion proposed at the Meeting, a majority of greater than one-half of the votes cast will be required (an "Ordinary Resolution") unless the motion requires a Special Resolution, in which case a majority of not less than two thirds of the votes cast will be required. In the event a motion proposed at the Meeting requires disinterested Shareholder approval, Common Shares held by Shareholders of the Company who are also "insiders", as such term is defined under applicable securities laws, will be excluded from the count of votes cast on such motion.

ADVICE TO BENEFICIAL SHAREHOLDERS

The information set forth in this section is of significant importance to many Shareholders as a substantial number of Shareholders do not hold Common Shares in their own name. Shareholders who do not hold their Common Shares in their own name (referred to in this information circular as "Beneficial Shareholders") should note that only proxies deposited by Shareholders whose names appear on the records of the Company as the registered holders of Common Shares can be recognized and acted upon at the Meeting. If Common Shares are listed in an account statement provided to a Shareholder by a broker, then, in almost all cases, those Common Shares will not be registered in the Shareholder's name on the records of the Company. Such Common Shares will more likely be registered under the name of the Shareholder's broker or an agent of that broker. In Canada, the vast majority of such Common Shares are registered under the name CDS & Co. (the registration name for CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc., which acts as nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms). The Common Shares held by brokers or their agents or nominees can only be voted (for or against resolutions) upon the instructions of the Beneficial Shareholder. Without specific instructions, a broker and its agents are prohibited from voting shares for the broker's clients. Therefore, Beneficial Shareholders should ensure that instructions respecting the voting of their Common Shares are communicated to the appropriate person.

Applicable regulatory rules require intermediaries/brokers to seek voting instructions in advance of Shareholders' meetings. Every intermediary/broker has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions to clients, which should be carefully followed by Beneficial Shareholders in order to ensure that their shares are voted at the Meeting. The purpose of the form of proxy or voting instruction form provided to a Beneficial Shareholder by its broker, agent or nominee is limited to instructing the registered holder of the Common Shares on how to vote such shares on behalf of the Beneficial Shareholder. The majority of brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Investor Communications ("Broadridge"). Broadridge typically supplies a voting instruction form, mails those forms to Beneficial Shareholders and asks those Beneficial Shareholders to return the forms to Broadridge or follow specific telephone or other voting procedures. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received by it and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of the shares to be represented at the Meeting. A Beneficial Shareholder receiving a voting instruction form from Broadridge cannot use that form to vote Common Shares directly at the Meeting. Instead, the voting instruction form must be returned to Broadridge or the alternate voting procedures must be completed well in advance of the Meeting in order to ensure such Common Shares are voted.

Although Beneficial Shareholders may not be recognized directly at the Meeting for the purpose of voting Common Shares registered in the name of their broker, agent or nominee, a Beneficial Shareholder may attend the Meeting as a proxyholder for a shareholder and vote Common Shares in that capacity. Beneficial Shareholders who wish to attend the Meeting and indirectly vote their Common Shares as proxyholder for the registered shareholder should contact their broker, agent or nominee well in advance of the Meeting to determine the steps necessary to permit them to indirectly vote their Common Shares as a proxyholder.

VOTING SHARES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF

The Company's authorized capital consists of an unlimited number of Common Shares without par value of which 90,974,487 Common Shares were issued and outstanding as of the close of business on September 24, 2013 (the "Record Date"), each Common Share carrying the right to one vote.

Any shareholder of record at the close of business on the Record Date who either personally attends the Meeting or who has completed and delivered a Proxy in the manner and subject to the provisions described above, shall be entitled to vote or to have such shareholder's shares voted at the Meeting or adjournment thereof.

To the best of the knowledge of the directors and senior officers of the Company, as of September 24, 2013 there are no persons who beneficially own, or control or direct, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Company, other than as set forth below:

Name Number ofCommon Shares Percentage of Common SharesOutstanding
Sun Valley Gold Master Fund, Ltd. 13,635,654 14.99%(1)

(1) The sole holders of common shares of the Sun Valley Gold Master Fund, Ltd. ("Master Fund") are Sun Valley Gold International, Ltd., of which Sun Valley Gold LLC ("Sun Valley") is the Investment Manager, and Sun Valley Gold, L.P., of which Sun Valley is the General Partner. Sun Valley is the investment manager for the Master Fund, and has discretionary trading authority over the securities of Coventry issued to the Master Fund.

Subsequent to the December 31, 2012 year end, the Company changed its year end to June 30. During the year ended June 30, 2013, the Company had five "Named Executive Officers". Don Halliday acted as President, CEO and a director until January 8, 2013, when he resigned his positions as President and CEO and was appointed as the Company's VP of Investor Relations; Mr. Halliday terminated all executive duties with the Company on June 30, 2013.

Nicholas Day was appointed CFO on April 29, 2013.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The Board of Directors of the Company is responsible for determining all forms of compensation to be granted to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the directors, and for reviewing the Chief Executive Officer's recommendations respecting compensation of the other senior executives of the Company, to ensure such arrangements reflect the responsibilities and risks associated with each position. Compensation of the Company's Named Executive Officers is comprised of a base salary, the reimbursement of expenses incurred by each Named Executive Officer, and the grant of options to purchase Common Shares under the Company's stock option plan (as more particularly described below). Through its executive compensation practices, the Company seeks to provide value to its shareholders through a strong executive leadership. Specifically, the Company's executive compensation structure seeks to attract and retain talented and experienced executives necessary to achieve the Company's strategic objectives, motivate and reward executives whose knowledge, skills and performance are critical to the Company's success, and align the interests of the Company's executives and shareholders by motivating executives to increase shareholder value.

Within the context of the overall objectives of the Company's compensation practices, the Company determined the specific amounts of compensation to be paid to each of its executives during the years ended June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 based on a number of factors, including their performance during the fiscal year, the roles and responsibilities of the Company's executives, the individual experience and skills of, and expected contributions from, the Company's executives, the Company's executives' historical compensation and performance within the Company, and any contractual commitments the Company has made to its executives regarding compensation.

The Board of Directors has not conducted a formal evaluation of the implications of the risks associated with the Company's compensation policies. Risk management is a consideration of the Board of Directors when implementing compensation policies and the Board of Directors do not believe that the Company's compensation policies results in unnecessary or inappropriate risk taking including risks that are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Base Salary

The Company's approach is to pay its executives a base salary that is competitive with those of other executive officers in similar companies. The Company believes that a competitive base salary is a necessary element of any compensation program that is designed to attract and retain talented and experienced executives. The Company also believes that attractive base salaries can motivate and reward executives for their overall performance.

To the extent that the Company has entered into employment agreements with its executives, the base salaries of such individuals reflect the initial base salaries that the Company negotiated with them. The base salaries that the Company negotiated with its executives were based on its understanding of base salaries for comparable positions at similarly situated companies at the time, the individual experience and skills of, and expected contribution from, each executive, the roles and responsibilities of the executive, and the base salaries of the Company's existing executives and other factors. The employment agreements that were entered into with each of the Company's Named Executive Officers are summarized under "Management Contracts" below.

Option Based Awards

The Company has in effect a stock option plan (the "Stock Option Plan") in order to provide effective incentives to directors, officers and senior management personnel, employees and consultants of the Company and to enable the Company to attract and retain experienced and qualified individuals in those positions by permitting such individuals to directly participate in an increase in per share value created for the Company's Shareholders. The Company has no equity compensation plans other than the Stock Option Plan. The Stock Option Plan is an important part of the Company's long-term incentive strategy for its executive officers. The Stock Option Plan is intended to reinforce commitment to long-term growth in profitability and shareholder value. The size of stock option grants to officers is dependent on each officer's level of responsibility, authority and importance to the Company and the degree to which such executive officer's long term contribution to the Company will be key to its long-term success. Previous grants of stock options are taken into account when considering new grants.

The Company is seeking re-approval of the Shareholders at the Meeting for its stock option plan. The significant terms of the Company's stock option plan are set out below under the heading "Particulars of Other Matters to be Acted Upon – Re-approval of Rolling Stock Option Plan".

Use of Financial Instruments

The Company does not have a policy that would prohibit a Named Executive Officer or director from purchasing financial instruments, including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars or units of exchange funds, that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity securities granted as compensation or held, directly or indirectly, by the Named Executive Officer or director. However, management is not aware of any Named Executive or director purchasing such an instrument.

Compensation

The following table sets out certain information respecting the compensation paid to Named Executive Officers of the Company for the financial years ended June 30, 2013, December 31, 2012, December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

  • (a) the Option Plan reserves, for issue pursuant to stock options, a maximum number of Common Shares equal to 10% of the outstanding Common Shares of the Company from time to time, with no mandatory vesting provisions (apart from options granted to Consultants performing Investor Relations Activities see (e) below);
  • (b) the number of Common Shares reserved for issue to any one person in any 12 month period under the Option Plan may not exceed 5% of the outstanding Common Shares at the time of grant without Disinterested Shareholder Approval (as defined in Policy 4.4 of the Exchange);
  • (c) the number of Common Shares reserved for issue to any Consultant in any 12 month period under the Option Plan may not exceed 2% of the outstanding Common Shares at the time of grant;
  • (d) the aggregate number of Common Shares reserved for issue to any person employed to provide Investor Relations Activities in any 12 month period under the Option Plan may not exceed 2% of the outstanding Common Shares at the time of grant;
  • (e) options granted to Consultants performing Investor Relations Activities shall vest over a minimum of 12 months with no more than 1/4 of such Options vesting in any 3 month period;
  • (f) the exercise price per Common Share for a stock option may not be less than the Market Price of the Common Shares at the time of the grant;
  • (g) stock options may have a term not exceeding ten years;
  • (h) stock options (other than options held by a person involved in investor relations activities) will cease to be exercisable 90 days after the optionee ceases to be a Director (which term includes a senior officer), Employee, Consultant, Eligible Charitable Organization or Management Company Employee otherwise than by death, or for a "reasonable period" after the optionee ceases to serve in such capacity, as determined by the board of directors of the Company. Stock options granted to persons involved in Investor Relations Activities will cease to be exercisable 30 days after the optionee ceases to serve in such capacity otherwise than by death, or for a "reasonable period" after the optionee ceases to serve in such capacity, as determined by the board of directors of the Company;
  • (i) stock options are non-assignable and non-transferable;
  • (j) the Option Plan contains provisions for adjustment in the number of Common Shares or other property issuable on exercise of a stock option in the event of a share consolidation, split, reclassification or other capital reorganization, or a stock dividend, amalgamation, merger or other relevant corporate transaction, or any other relevant change in or event affecting the Common Shares;
  • (k) upon the occurrence of an Accelerated Vesting Event (as defined in the Option Plan), the Board will have the power, at its sole discretion and without being required to obtain the approval of Shareholders or the holder of any stock option, to make

such changes to the terms of stock options as it considers fair and appropriate in the circumstances, including but not limited to: (a) accelerating the vesting of stock options, conditionally or unconditionally; (b) terminating every stock option if under the transaction giving rise to the Accelerated Vesting Event, options in replacement of the stock options are proposed to be granted to or exchanged with the holders of stock options, which replacement options treat the holders of stock options in a manner which the Board considers fair and appropriate in the circumstances having regard to the treatment of holders of Common Shares under such transaction; (c) otherwise modifying the terms of any stock option to assist the holder to tender into any take-over bid or other transaction constituting an Accelerated Vesting Event; or (d) following the successful completion of such Accelerated Vesting Event, terminating any stock option to the extent it has not been exercised prior to successful completion of the Accelerated Vesting Event. The determination of the Board in respect of any such Accelerated Vesting Event shall for the purposes of the Option Plan be final, conclusive and binding; and

(l) in connection with the exercise of an option, as a condition to such exercise, the Company shall require the optionee to pay to the Company an amount as necessary so as to ensure that the Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions of any federal, provincial or local laws relating to the withholding of tax or other required deductions relating to the exercise of such option.

"Consultant", "Director", "Employee", "Investor Relations Activities", "Management Company Employee", "Market Price" and "Eligible Charitable Organization" all have the same definition as in the policies of the Exchange.

Pursuant to the Board's authority to govern the implementation and administration of the Option Plan, all previously granted and outstanding stock options shall be governed by the provisions of the Option Plan.

The text of the resolution to be passed is as follows. In order to be passed, a majority of the votes cast at the Meeting in person or by proxy must be voted in favour of the resolution.

"RESOLVED THAT the Company's stock option plan dated 26 June 2003, amended on 17 June 2004 and 31 December 2010 be and is hereby confirmed and re-approved with such additional provisions and amendments, provided that such are not inconsistent with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange, as the directors of the Company may deem necessary or advisable."

Management recommends, and the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote in favour of, the re-approval of the Option Plan.

APPROVAL UNDER LISTING RULE 7.1A

To consider and, if thought fit, to pass the following resolution as a special resolution:

"That, for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1A and for all other purposes, approval is given for the issue of equity securities totalling up to 10% of the issued capital of the Company at the time of issue, calculated in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 and on the terms and conditions set out below."

Voting Exclusion: The Company will disregard any votes cast on this resolution by any person who may participate in the issue of equity securities under this resolution and a person who might obtain a benefit, except a benefit solely in the capacity of a holder of ordinary securities, if the resolution is passed and any associates of those persons. However, the Company will not disregard a vote if it is cast by a person as a proxy for a person who is entitled to vote, in accordance with the directions on the proxy form, or, it is cast by the person chairing the meeting as proxy for a person who is entitled to vote, in accordance with a direction on the proxy form to vote as the proxy decides.

General

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an eligible entity may seek shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to allow it to issue equity securities up to 10% of its issued capital ("10% placement capacity").

The Company is an eligible entity.

If Shareholders approve this resolution, the number of equity securities the eligible entity may issue under the 10% placement capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2.

The effect of this resolution will be to allow the company to issue equity securities up to 10% of the Company's fully paid Common Shares on issue under the 10% placement capacity during the period up to 12 months after the Meeting, without subsequent Shareholder approval and without using the Company's 15% annual placement capacity granted under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

This resolution is a special resolution. Accordingly, at least two-thirds of votes cast by shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of this resolution for it to be passed.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A came into effect on 1 August 2012 and enables an eligible entity to seek shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to issue equity securities in addition to those under the eligible entity's 15% annual placement capacity.

An eligible entity is one that, as at the date of the relevant annual general meeting:

  • (a) is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index; and
  • (b) has a maximum market capitalisation (excluding restricted securities and securities quoted on a deferred settlement basis) of $300,000,000 or less.

The Company is an eligible entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a current market capitalisation of approximately $7,277,600.

Any equity securities issued must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted equity securities. The Company currently has 1 class of equity securities on issue, being the Company's Common Shares which are represented on the ASX as CDIs (ASX Code: CYY).

The exact number of equity securities that the Company may issue under an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated according to the following formula:

(A x D) – E

Where:

  • A is the number of Common Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:
    • (i) plus the number of Common Shares issued in the previous 12 months under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2;
    • (ii) plus the number of partly paid Common Shares that became fully paid in the previous 12 months;
    • (iii) plus the number of Common Shares issued in the previous 12 months with approval of holders of Common Shares under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid Common Shares under the entity's 15% placement capacity without shareholder approval; and
    • (iv) less the number of Common Shares cancelled in the previous 12 months.
  • D is 10%.
  • E is the number of equity securities issued or agreed to be issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of holders of Common Shares under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.

Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to this resolution:

(b) Minimum Price

The minimum price at which the equity securities may be issued is 75% of the volume weighted average price of equity securities in that class, calculated over the 15 ASX trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • (i) the date on which the price at which the equity securities are to be issued is agreed; or
  • (ii) if the equity securities are not issued within 5 ASX trading days of the date set out below, the date on which the equity securities are issued.

(c) Date of Issue

The equity securities may be issued under the 10% placement capacity commencing on the date of the meeting and expiring on the first to occur of the following:

  • (i) 12 months after the date of this meeting; and
  • (ii) the date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under ASX Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of the Company's activities) or 11.2 (disposal of the Company's main undertaking) (after which date, an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A ceases to be valid),

(10% placement capacity period).

(d) Risk of voting dilution

Any issue of equity securities under the 10% placement capacity will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Common Shares under the issue.

If this resolution is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of equity securities available under the 10% placement capacity, the economic and voting dilution of existing Common Shares would be as shown in the table below.

The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A(2), on the basis of the current market price of Common Shares and the current number of equity securities on issue as at the date of this Information Circular.

The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Common Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Common Shares issued under the 10% placement capacity.

*The number of Common Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of Common Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a pro-rata rights issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

The table above uses the following assumptions:

    1. There are currently 140,656,019 Common Shares on issue.
    1. The issue price set out above is the closing price of the Common Shares on the ASX on 5 September 2013.
    1. The Company issues the maximum possible number of equity securities under the 10% placement capacity.
    1. The Company has not issued any equity securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
    1. The issue of equity securities under the 10% placement capacity consists only of Common Shares. It is assumed that no options are exercised into Common Shares before the date of issue of the equity securities.
    1. The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.
    1. This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
    1. The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.
    1. The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% placement capacity, based on that Shareholder's holding at the date of the Meeting.

Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:

  • (a) the market price for the Company's Common Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and
  • (b) the Common Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those shares on the date of issue.

(c) Purpose of Issue under 10% Placement Capacity

The Company may issue equity securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for the following purposes:

  • (a) as cash consideration in which case the Company intends to use funds raised for the acquisition of new resources, assets and investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition), continued exploration expenditure on the company's current assets and Cameron Gold Project (funds would then be used for project feasibility studies and ongoing project administration), and general working capital; or
  • (b) as non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new resources assets and investments including previously announced acquisitions, in such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by listing Rule 7.1A.3.

The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A(4) and 3.10.5A upon issue of any equity securities.

(e) Allocation policy under the 10% Placement Capacity

The Company's allocation policy for the issue of equity securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will be dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of the proposed placement(s).

The recipients of the equity securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been determined. However, the recipients of equity securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company.

The Company will determine the recipients at the time of the issue under the 10% Placement Capacity, having regard to the following factors:

  • (i) the purpose of the issue;
  • (ii) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;
  • (iii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;
  • (iv) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company;
  • (v) prevailing market conditions; and
  • (vi) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).

Further, if the Company is successful in acquiring new resources, assets or investments, it is likely that the recipients under the 10% placement capacity will be vendors of the new resources, assets or investments.

(f) Previous Approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

The Company has not previously obtained approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.

(g) Compliance with ASX Listing Rules 7.1A.4 and 3.10.5A

When the Company issues equity securities pursuant to the 10% placement capacity, it will give to ASX:

  • (i) a list of the recipients of the equity securities and the number of equity securities issued to each (not for release to the market), in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A.4; and
  • (ii) the information required by Listing Rule 3.10.5A for release to the market.

Voting Exclusion Statement: The Company will disregard any votes cast on this resolution by any person who will be issued options (and their nominees) and any of their associates. However, the Company need not disregard a vote if it is cast by a person as a proxy for a person who is entitled to vote, in accordance with the directions on the Proxy Form, or, it is cast by the person chairing the meeting as proxy for a person who is entitled to vote, in accordance with a direction on the Proxy Form to vote as the proxy decides.

General

The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, to issue options to its directors (or their nominees) in the manner set out below:

  • (a) Mr Steven Chadwick 700,000 options;
  • (b) Mr Nick Day 500,000 options;
  • (c) Mr Tony Goddard 350,000 options;

  • (e) Mr Eric Edwards 350,000 options;
  • (f) Mr Mike Haynes 350,000 options; and
  • (g) Mr Robert Boaz 350,000 options,

("director options").

ASX Listing Rule 10.11

ASX Listing Rule 10.11 requires Shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a related party, 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 in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 applies.

As the grant of the director options involves the issue of securities to a related party of the Company (being directors of the Company), Shareholder approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.11 is required unless an exception applies. It is the view of the directors that the exceptions set out in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply in the current circumstances.

Technical Information required by ASX Listing Rule 10.13

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the issue of the director options:

  • (b) the number of director options to be issued is 2,950,000 (assuming that all of the director options are issued);
  • (c) the director options will be granted no later than 1 month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) and it is intended that issue of the director options will occur on the same date;
  • (d) the director options will be issued for nil cash consideration, accordingly no funds will be raised; and
  • (e) the terms and conditions of the director options are set out below.

Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the grant of the director options as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the grant of director options to the related parties will not be included in the use of the Company's 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

SCHEDULE "B" COVENTRY RESOURCES INC. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

_____________________________________________________________________________________________

Corporate Governance

The following is a summary of Company's approach to corporate governance as at the date of this Circular.

Board of Directors

The Company's corporate governance policies take into account characteristics specific to a junior exploration company. The Board is responsible for the general supervision of the management of the Company's business and affairs with the objective of enhancing shareholder value.

The Board fulfills its mandate at regularly scheduled meetings or as required. Frequency of meetings may be increased and the nature of the agenda items may be changed depending upon the state of the Company's affairs and in light of opportunities or risks which the Company faces. The directors are kept informed of the Company's operations at these meetings as well as through reports and discussions with management on matters within their particular areas of expertise.

The Board is currently comprised of seven directors: Steven Chadwick, Anthony Goddard, Don Halliday, Eric Edwards, Michael Haynes, Robert Boaz and Nicholas Day. Eric Edwards, Michael Haynes and Robert Boaz are considered to be independent. Stephen Chadwick, Anthony Goddard, Don Halliday and Nicholas Day are all executive officers of the Company and are not considered to be independent. In determining whether a director is independent, the Board chiefly considers whether the director has a relationship which could, or could be perceived to interfere with the director's ability to objectively assess the performance of management.

The Board is responsible for approving long-term strategic plans and annual operating plans and budgets recommended by management. Board consideration and approval is also required for material contracts and business transactions, and all debt and equity financing transactions.

The Board delegates to management responsibility for meeting defined corporate objectives, implementing approved strategic and operating plans, carrying on Company's business in the ordinary course, managing Company's cash flow, evaluating new business opportunities, recruiting staff and complying with applicable regulatory require me objectives, long-term strategic plans and annual operating plans.

Directorships

Certain of the directors of Company are also directors of other reporting issuers (or equivalent) in a jurisdiction or a foreign jurisdiction as follows:

Name of director Other reporting issuer (or equivalent in a foreign jurisdiction)
Steven Chadwick
Anthony Goddard
Don Halliday
Eric H. Edwards Santa Barbara Resources LimitedSunridge Gold Corp. andLupaka Gold Corp.
Michael Haynes Overland Resources LimitedGenesis Minerals Limited andBlack Range Minerals Limited.
Robert Boaz Aura Silver Resources Inc.Southern Andes Energy Inc. (formerly Solex Resources Corp) andRenaissance Gold Inc.
Nicholas Day

Orientation and Continuing Education

The Company has not yet developed an official orientation or training program for new directors. However, any new directors will have the opportunity to become familiar with Company by meeting with the other directors and with officers and employees. Orientation activities are tailored to the particular needs and experience of each director and the overall needs of the Board.

Ethical Business Conduct

The Board monitors the ethical conduct of Company and ensures that it complies with applicable legal and regulatory requirements, such as those of relevant securities commissions and stock exchanges. The Board has found that the fiduciary duties placed on individual directors by Company's governing corporate legislation and the common law, as well as the restrictions placed by applicable corporate legislation on the individual director's participation in decisions of the Board in which the director has an interest, have been sufficient to ensure that the Board operates independently of management, ethically and in the best interests of Company.

Nomination of Directors

The Board has not appointed a nominating committee because the Board fulfills these functions.

Compensation

The Board, as a whole, is responsible for determining all forms of compensation to be granted to the Chief Executive Officer of Company and the directors, and for reviewing the Chief Executive Officer's recommendations respecting compensation of the other senior executives of Company, to ensure such arrangements reflect the responsibilities and risks associated with each position. When determining the compensation of its executive officers, the Board considers the following issues: i) recruiting and retaining executives critical to the success of Company and the enhancement of shareholder value; ii) providing fair and competitive compensation; iii) balancing the interests of management and Company's shareholders; and iv) rewarding performance both on an individual basis and with respect to operations in general. In order to achieve these objectives, the compensation paid to Company's executive officers consists of a base salary and long-term incentive in the form of stock options.

Committees of the Board

The Board has appointed an Audit Committee and no other committees. The Audit Committee is comprised of: Eric H. Edwards, Chairman, Michael Haynes and Robert Boaz.. A description of the function of the Audit Committee can be found under the heading "Audit Committee" below.

Assessments

The Board assesses, from time to time, the effectiveness of the Board as a whole, the committees, if any, of the Board and the contribution of individual directors, including considering the appropriate size of the Board.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee is ultimately responsible for the policies and practices relating to integrity of financial and regulatory reporting, as well as internal controls to achieve the objectives of: safeguarding of corporate assets; reliability of information; and compliance with policies and laws. The Board adopted an Audit Committee Charter mandating the role of the Audit Committee in supporting the Board in meeting its responsibilities to the shareholders as amended on April 12, 2007.

Audit Committee Members

The Company's Audit Committee is comprised of three directors: Eric H. Edwards, Chairman; Michael Haynes; and Robert Boaz. All committee members are considered "independent" (as that term is defined in applicable securities legislation).

Relevant Education and Experience

All of the Audit Committee members have the ability to read and understand financial statements that present a breadth and complexity of the issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the Company's financial statements. Eric Edwards, Chairman of the Audit Committee, has served as Chief Financial officer for a number of publicly traded mining companies over the past thirteen years. Mr. Edwards holds a Masters of Business Administration and a Bachelor of Science (honors) degree in Geology and serves as a director of the Northwest Mining Association. Michael Haynes and Robert Boaz have the industry experience necessary to understand and analyze financial statements of the level of complexity of the Company, as well as the understanding of internal controls and procedures necessary for financial reporting. Mr. Haynes has more than 19 years of experience in the mining industry dealing with the financials of listed reporting companies. Mr. Boaz Graduated with honours from McMaster University of Hamilton, Ontario with a Bachelor of Arts in Economics and has a Masters Degree in Economics from York University in Toronto. He is a highly respected financial and economic strategist in Canadian bond and equity markets with experience related to equity research, portfolio management, institutional sales and investment banking. Mr. Boaz has over 20 years of experience in the finance industry, more recently as Managing Director, Investment Banking with Raymond James Ltd and Vice-President, Head of Research and in-house portfolio strategist for Dundee Securities Corporation.

Audit Committee Oversight

Since the commencement of the Company's most recently completed financial year, the Board has not failed to adopt a recommendation of the Audit Committee to nominate or compensate an external auditor.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures for Non-Audit Services

Company's Audit Committee Charter requires that management seek approval from the Audit Committee of all nonaudit services to be provided to the Company by the external auditor prior to engaging the external auditor to perform those non-audit services.

External Auditor Service Fees (by category)

The fees paid or accrued by the Company to its auditor in each of the last two calendar years, by category, are as follows:

Year endedJune 30, 2013(C$) Year endedDecember 31, 2012($) Year endedDecember 31, 2011($)

Audit Related Fees Nil Nil Nil
Tax Fees Nil 2,750 $5,500
All Other Fees 163,346 6,120 Nil
