EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

INTRODUCTION

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of Shareholders in relation to the business to be conducted at the Company’s General Meeting to be held at the offices of BDO, 38 Station Street, Subiaco, Western Australia on Wednesday 12 September 2012 commencing at 9.30am AWST.

The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide Shareholders with information that is reasonably required by Shareholders to decide how to vote upon the Resolutions.

This Explanatory Statement is an important document and should be read carefully in full by all Shareholders. The Directors recommend that Shareholders read this Explanatory Statement before determining whether to support the resolutions or otherwise. If you have any questions regarding the matters set out in this Explanatory Statement or the preceding Notice, please contact the Company, your stockbroker or other professional adviser.

1. PURPOSE OF MEETING

The purpose of the General Meeting is to seek Shareholder approvals in relation to the following matters:

  • a share placement by the Company to raise $20 million to fund the acquisition of a further 1,653 net acres in the Delta Oil Project, to fund the Company's share of the Beeler #1H well and potentially another two wells within the Richland Oil Project, to provide additional capital which will allow the Company to continue consolidating oil and gas leases in the Woodbine tight oil play and for general working capital purposes (Resolutions 1 to 5);

  • the issue of 291,959,077 Shares to Amerril Energy as consideration for the acquisition of the Amerril Leases (Resolution 6);

  • the issue of the Acquisition Securities and the Glass G, Class H and Class I Performance Options to Carina Energy (or its nominees) as vendors of the Delta Oil Project (Resolutions 7 and 8);

  • the issue of Incentive Options to Mr Damian Kestel, a Director of the Company (Resolution 9); and

  • an increase to the aggregate fees payable to the Directors of the Company Resolution 10).

2. RESOLUTION 1 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF SHARES

2.1 Introduction

On 31 July 2012, the Company announced that it had resolved to raise $20 million (before expenses) by way of a placement of 400,000,000 Shares at an issue price of 5 cents each. The placement is being undertaken in two tranches.

As part of Tranche 1 of the placement, the Company issued 167,000,000 Shares at an issue price of 5 cents each to various sophisticated and professional investors to raise $8,350,000. Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder ratification of the issue of these 167,000,000 Shares.

Each of the Directors intends to vote in favour of Resolution 1 and recommends that Shareholders also vote in favour of Resolution 1.

2.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.4

Subject to certain exceptions, ASX Listing Rule 7.1 restricts a company from issuing or agreeing to issue equity securities in any 12 month period which amount to more than 15% of the company’s ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that period without shareholder approval.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. This rule provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made without shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, those securities shall be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1, thereby ‘refreshing’ the Company’s ability to issue shares within the 15% limit, and restoring the Company’s ability to make placements within that limit (if that is thought desirable) without the need for shareholder approval.

While the Shares described in this Resolution 1 were issued within the 15% limit, the Company seeks ratification of the issue of those Shares for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.4 so that the Company’s ability to issue securities will be ‘refreshed’. By ratifying the issue of the Shares under ASX Listing Rule 7.4, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future of up to the 15% threshold set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

2.3 Information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.5

ASX Listing Rule 7.5 sets out a number of matters which must be included in a notice of meeting seeking an approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.4.

For the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.4, the following information is provided to allow Shareholders to assess the ratification of the issue of the Shares the subject of Resolution 1:

  • (a) the number of Shares issued and allotted by the Company was 167,000,000 Shares;

  • (b) the Shares were issued on 8 August 2012;

  • (c) the Shares were issued at an issue price of 5 cents each;

  • (d) the Shares were ordinary shares in the capital of the Company and ranked equally in all respects with the ordinary shares on issue in the Company;

  • (e) the Shares were issued to various sophisticated and professional investors who are clients of Hartleys, CPS Securities, Bell Potter and Blackswan Equities (and who are not related parties of the Company);

  • (f) the issue of the Shares raised funds of $8,350,000 (prior to capital raising expenses) which will be used by the Company as follows:

  • (i) to fund the acquisition of a further 1,653 net acres in the Delta Oil Project;

  • (ii) to fund the Company's share of the Beeler #1H well and potentially two further wells within the Richland Oil Project;

  • (iii) to provide capital to allow the Company to continue consolidating oil and gas leases in the Woodbine tight oil play; and

  • (iv) for general working capital purposes; and

3. RESOLUTION 2 – APPROVAL OF ISSUE OF SHARES

3.1 Introduction

As part of Tranche 2 of the placement, the Company proposes to issue 233,000,000 Shares at an issue price of 5 cents each to various sophisticated and professional investors, including three Directors of the Company, to raise $11,650,000. Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of 221,400,000 of these Shares.

Each of the Directors intends to vote in favour of Resolution 2 and recommends that Shareholders also vote in favour of Resolution 2.

3.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1

Resolution 2 is required to be approved in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.1. ASX Listing Rule 7.1 limits the number of equity securities which a listed company may issue in any 12 month period without shareholder approval (subject to certain exceptions, for example, a pro rata issue to all shareholders). The limit is, generally speaking, no more than 15% of the total number of equity securities on issue at the beginning of the 12 month period, plus the number of equity securities issued with the approval of shareholders or under one of the exceptions to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 during the previous 12 months.

Accordingly, the Company is seeking approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of up to 221,400,000 Shares on the terms and conditions set out in this Explanatory Statement.

3.3 Information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.3

ASX Listing Rule 7.3 sets out a number of matters which must be included in a notice of meeting seeking an approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

For the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided to allow Shareholders to assess the issue of the Shares the subject of Resolution 2:

  • (a) the maximum number of Shares the Company will issue is 221,400,000;

  • (b) the Company will issue the Shares no later than 3 months 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);

  • (c) the Shares will be issued at 5 cents each;

  • (d) the Shares will be issued to various sophisticated and professional investors who are clients of Hartleys, CPS Securities, Bell Potter and Blackswan Equities (and who are not related parties of the Company);

  • (f) the issue of the Shares will raise up to $11,070,000 (prior to capital raising expenses) which will be used by the Company as follows:

ABN 69 009 196 810 (Incorporated in Western Australia)

  • (ii) to fund the Company's share of the Beeler #1H well and potentially two further wells within the Richland Oil Project;

  • (iii) to provide capital to allow the Company to continue consolidating oil and gas leases in the Woodbine tight oil play; and

  • (iv) for general working capital purposes;

  • (g) the allotment of the Shares may occur progressively; and

  • (h) a voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.

4. RESOLUTIONS 3, 4, & 5 – APPROVAL OF ISSUE OF SHARES TO CERTAIN DIRECTORS

4.1 Introduction

Resolutions 3, 4, and 5 seek Shareholder approval for the issue of 11,600,000 Shares at an issue price of 5 cents each to Dr Wolf Gerhard Martinick, Dr Philip Linsley and Mr Damian Kestel, three of the Directors of the Company, to raise $580,000. These Shares will form part of Tranche 2 of the $20 million share placement being undertaken by the Company as described in section 3.1 above.

Dr Martinick has an interest in Resolution 3 and therefore believes it inappropriate to make a recommendation. Each of the other Directors intends to vote in favour of Resolution 3 and recommends that Shareholders also vote in favour of Resolution 3.

Dr Linsley has an interest in Resolution 4 and therefore believes it inappropriate to make a recommendation. Each of the other Directors intends to vote in favour of Resolution 4 and recommends that Shareholders also vote in favour of Resolution 4.

Mr Kestel has an interest in Resolution 5 and therefore believes it inappropriate to make a recommendation. Each of the other Directors intends to vote in favour of Resolution 5 and recommends that Shareholders also vote in favour of Resolution 5.

4.2 ASX Listing Rule 10.11

The Company seeks Shareholder approval for the purpose of Listing Rule 10.11 to enable the Company to issue the Shares to Dr Martinick, Dr Linsley and Mr Kestel.

Subject to certain exceptions, Listing Rule 10.11 restricts a company from issuing or agreeing to issue equity securities to a related party without shareholder approval. If approval is given under Listing Rule 10.11, approval is not required under Listing Rule 7.1.

For the purpose of this Meeting and in accordance with section 228 of the Corporations Act a related party of the Company includes:

  • (a) a Director; and

  • (b) an entity controlled by a Director.

Accordingly, Resolutions 3, 4, and 5 seek Shareholder approval for the issue the Shares to Dr Martinick, Dr Linsley and Mr Kestel (or their nominees) for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.

  • (g) a voting exclusion is included in the Notice.

The Company is not seeking Shareholder approval for issue of the Shares the subject of Resolutions 3, 4, and 5 for the purpose of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act as the Directors believe that the issue of the Shares will fall within the "arm's length" exception contained in section 210 of the Corporations Act on the basis that the Shares will be issued to Dr Martinick, Dr Linsley and Mr Kestel at the same price as those being issued to sophisticated and professional investors pursuant to Resolution 1 and 2.

In accordance with Shareholder approvals obtained at an earlier general meeting, Carina Energy (or its nominees) have been issued with various securities as partial consideration for the sale of the Delta Oil Project to the Company. These securities have been issued progressively as the various tranches of the Delta Oil Project have been acquired by the Company.

Approval for the issue of these securities was obtained at a general meeting held on 22 December 2011, however not all of the securities could be issued within three months

of this meeting or in accordance with a subsequent ASX waiver which extended the issue period until 20 May 2012.

As at 20 May 2012, the Company had acquired 8,347 acres in the Delta Oil Project and the acquisition of the remaining 1,653 acres was on-going.

Other than JDK Nominees, neither Carina Energy nor any of its nominees are related parties of the Company and none of them (including JDK Nominees) will hold, either alone or in aggregate, 20% or more of the Shares in the Company upon the issue of the Acquisition Securities.

7.5 Information required by ASX Listing Rule 10.13

(or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) and in the case of the Class G, Class H and Class I Performance Options which relate to the acquisition of the next 1,653 acres of the Delta Oil Project (and which will take the total acres to 10,000 acres), only if these 1,653 acres are acquired by the Company;

8. RESOLUTION 9 - ISSUE OF INCENTIVE OPTIONS TO MR DAMIAN KESTEL

8.1 General

This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of 5,000,000 Incentive Options to Mr Damian Kestel, a Director of the Company.

The Company seeks to issue the Incentive Options to Mr Kestel in recognition of his efforts to date and as an incentive to help drive the future value of the Company.

8.2 ASX Listing Rule 10.11 and Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

The Company seeks Shareholder approval for the purpose of Listing Rule 10.11 and under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act to enable the Company to issue the Incentive Options to Mr Kestel.

Subject to certain exceptions, Listing Rule 10.11 restricts a company from issuing or agreeing to issue equity securities to a related party without shareholder approval. If approval is given under Listing Rule 10.11, approval is not required under Listing Rule 7.1.

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act regulates the provision of financial benefits to related parties by a public company. Section 208 of the Corporations Act prohibits a public

ABN 69 009 196 810 (Incorporated in Western Australia)

==> picture [102 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

company giving a financial benefit to a related party unless one of a number of exceptions applies or shareholder approval is obtained.

A "financial benefit" is defined in the Corporations Act in broad terms and expressly includes a public company issuing securities. Section 208 of the Corporations Act provides that for a public company to give a financial benefit to a related party of that company, the public company must:

  • (a) obtain the approval of members in the way set out in sections 217 to 227; and

  • (b) give the benefit within 15 months after the approval.

For the purpose of this Meeting and in accordance with section 228 of the Corporations Act a related party of the Company includes:

  • (a) a Director; and

  • (b) an entity controlled by a Director.

Accordingly, Resolution 9 also seeks Shareholder approval for the issue the Incentive Options to Mr Kestel (or his nominees) for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

8.3 Information required by ASX Listing Rule 10.13 and section 219 of the Corporations Act

In accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 10.13 and Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, the following information is provided to Shareholders to allow them to assess the issue of the Incentive Options to Mr Kestel pursuant to Resolution 9:

  • (a) the Incentive Options are to be issued to Mr Damian Kestel (or his nominee);

  • (b) the total number of Incentive Options to be issued and allotted to Mr Kestel (or his nominee) is 5,000,000;

  • (c) the Company will issue and allot the Incentive Options no later than 1 month after the date of the Meeting (or such longer period as ASX may, in its discretion, allow);

  • (d) the Incentive Options will be issued for nil consideration and as such no funds will be raised from the grant of the Incentive Options. Shareholders should note that the Company will receive subscription monies if the Incentive Options are exercised however the amount received will depend upon the volume weighted average price of the Company's Shares in the 5 trading days prior to the date of the Meeting and cannot be determined at the date of this Notice;

  • (e) the exercise price of the Incentive Options will be 150% of the volume weighted average price of the Company's Shares in the 5 trading days prior to the date of the Meeting. As such, the exercise price will be at a premium to the price at which the Shares are trading on ASX on the issue date;

  • (f) the exercise price of the Incentive Options will be advised to Shareholders and the market on the day of the Meeting, prior to the commencement of the Meeting;

  • (g) upon exercise of the Incentive Options, Mr Kestel will be issued one Share in the capital of the Company for each Incentive Option exercised. The Shares will rank equally in all respects with the other Shares on issue in the Company;

ABN 69 009 196 810 (Incorporated in Western Australia)

==> picture [102 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

  • (h) the full terms of the Incentive Options are set out in Schedule 3;

  • (i) Mr Kestel has an interest in Resolution 9 on the basis that he will receive the Incentive Options if Resolution 9 is passed and therefore believes it inappropriate to make a recommendation. The remaining Directors do not have an interest in the outcome of Resolution 9 and recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 9 so that Mr Kestel is adequately incentivised to deliver increased value to the Company through his future efforts and also in recognition of Mr Kestel's efforts to date;

  • (j) Mr Kestel has an interest in 10,416,980 Shares;

  • (k) Mr Kestel received no remuneration from the Company for the year ended 30 June 2011 and it is expected that he will receive $20,833 in the current financial year;

  • (l) in the twelve months before the date of this Notice, the highest, lowest and last trading price of the Company's Shares were as follows:

Price Date
Highest 6.70 cents 15 and 18 June 2012
Lowest 1.64 cents 8 and 11 August 2011
Last 6.30 cents 9 August 2012
  • (m) the value of the Incentive Options has been calculated at 2.752 cents each using the Black-Scholes valuation method and based on the assumptions set out in section 8.4;

  • (n) based on the valuation in section 8.3(m), the financial benefit to Mr Kestel will be $137,600;

  • (o) the exercise of all 5,000,000 Incentive Options to be issued pursuant to Resolution 9 will result in a dilution of all other Shareholders' holdings in the Company of:

  • (i) 0.44% based on the total number of issued Shares at the date of this Explanatory Statement; and

  • (ii) 0.33% on a fully diluted basis;

  • (p) as noted above, the purpose of the issue of Incentive Options is to allow the Company to provide a cost-effective incentive for the ongoing dedication and efforts of Mr Kestel as a Director of the Company and for recognition of Mr Kestel's efforts to date. The Directors do not consider there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company or benefits forgone by the Company in issuing the Incentive Options upon the terms proposed;

  • (q) in determining the number and the terms of the Incentive Options to be issued to Mr Kestel, the Company has considered Mr Kestel's past performance, the current market price of the Company's Shares and current market practice, including the number and terms of the options which have been issued to the directors of other ASX listed companies in the Company's peer group;

ABN 69 009 196 810 (Incorporated in Western Australia)

==> picture [102 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

  • (r) Shareholders should note that the practice of granting options to non-executive directors as a part of their remuneration package is not in accordance with the ASX Corporate Governance Council's, Principles of Good Corporate Governance and Best Practice Recommendations (Second Edition). However, the Board considers that equity participation by way of the grant of 5,000,000 Incentive Options to Mr Kestel is appropriate for the Company at this time having regard to the role Mr Kestel will play in achieving the Company's goals and given the circumstances of the Company; and

  • (s) other than the information above and otherwise in this Explanatory Statement, the Company believes that there is no other information that would reasonably be required by the Shareholders to pass Resolution 9.

8.4 Valuation of Incentive Options

The Incentive Options have been valued as at 2 August 2012 using the Black-Scholes valuation method.

The valuation has been based upon the following inputs and assumptions:

  • (a) a spot Share price of 5.60 cents;

  • (b) an exercise price of 8.40 cents;

  • (c) a risk free rate of 2.60% per annum;

  • (d) a volatility factor of 90% which has been determined with reference to the historical trading of the Company’s Shares on ASX; and

  • (e) an expiry date of 3 years from the date of issue.

Based on the above, the Incentive Options to be issued pursuant to Resolution 9 have been valued at 2.752 cents each under the Black-Scholes valuation method.

The table below analyses the impact on the value of the Incentive Options in the event of an increase in the assumptions listed above, where all other assumptions remain the same:

Assumption Increased Effect on Value of Incentive Option
Share Price Increase
Exercise Price Decrease
Life of the Option Increase
Volatility Increase
Risk Free Interest Rate Increase

Assuming a variation in the spot Share price of between 4.4 cents and 6.8 cents (being +/- approximately 20% of the spot price referred to in section 8.4(a)), and all other variables remaining unchanged, the variation in the value of the Incentive Options would be as follows under the Black-Scholes valuation method:

==> picture [102 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

Share Price Value of Incentive Option
6.80 cents 3.342 cents
6.60 cents 3.244 cents
6.40 cents 3.145 cents
6.20 cents 3.047 cents
6.00 cents 2.949 cents
5.80 cents 2.851 cents
5.60 cents 2.752 cents
5.40 cents 2.654 cents

5.00 cents 2.457 cents
4.80 cents 2.359 cents
4.60 cents 2.261 cents
4.40 cents 2.162 cents

9. RESOLUTION 10 – INCREASE IN DIRECTORS FEES

This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval to increase or fix the maximum aggregate fees payable to the Directors of the Company by $125,000 to $400,000 per annum, with such fees to be allocated to individual Directors as the Board may determine.

Directors’ fees have remained unchanged since 2008 when they were increased to $275,000. At the Company’s 2008 Annual General Meeting it was envisaged that the composition of the Board may change in the future. This year there have been changes to the Board of the Company and there may be additional changes required as the Delta Oil Project and associated exploration is progressed. Increasing the maximum aggregate fees will allow the Company the flexibility to make changes to the Board at short notice, if this is required.
