EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND

This Explanatory Statement is intended to provide Shareholders with sufficient information to assess the merits of the resolutions contained in the accompanying Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting of Prominence Energy NL.

Shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting will be asked to consider resolutions:

  1. The Consolidation of Shares on the basis that every 10 shares be consolidated into 1 share.

  2. The Approval of GTT Ventures’ participation in a Convertible Note and prospective issue of associated Shares to GTT if their conversion rights are exercised

  3. The Approval of Mr Ian McCubbing’s participation in a Convertible Note and prospective issue of associated Shares to Mr Ian McCubbing if his conversion rights are exercised

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of Shareholders in relation to the business to be conducted at the Company’s Extraordinary General Meeting to be held at the Prominence Energy offices, Level 2, 30 Richardson street, West Perth, Western Australia on Friday 10 July 2020 commencing at 10am 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.

The Directors recommend that Shareholders read this Explanatory Statement before determining whether to support the resolutions or otherwise.

Section 2

1. RESOLUTION 1 – Consolidation of Capital

The Directors are seeking Shareholder approval to consolidate the number of Shares on issue on a 10:1 basis (every 10 Shares be consolidated into 1 Share).

Section 254H of the Corporations Act provides that a Company may, by resolution passed in general meeting, convert all or any of its shares into a larger or smaller number of shares. The Securities on issue in the Company that will be affected by the Consolidation are set out in the Table below.

If this Resolution is passed, the number of Shares on issue will be reduced from 1,319,557,588 to approximately 131 , 955 , 75 9 . If this Resolution is not passed the Capital Structure will remain unchanged.

Table 1 - The effect of the Consolidation on the Securities of the Company

  • Not all Shareholders will hold that number of Shares which can be evenly divided by 10. Where a fractional entitlement occurs, the Directors will round that fraction down to the nearest whole Share.

As the Consolidation applies equally to all Shareholders, individual shareholdings will be reduced in the same ratio as the total number of Shares (subject to rounding). Accordingly, the Consolidation will have no effect on the percentage interest that each Shareholder holds in the Company.

The Company currently has a relatively large number of Shares. The Directors propose the Consolidation because it will result in a more appropriate, effective capital structure for the Company and a share price more appealing to a wider range of investors.

See Announcements[1] https://www.asx.com.au/asxpdf/20171102/pdf/43nx90q9xf0rgt.pdf and https://www.asx.com.au/asxpdf/20171130/pdf/43prymdq59ptl3.pdf

It is not considered that any taxation consequences will exist for Shareholders arising from the Consolidation. However, Shareholders are advised to seek their own tax advice on the effect of the Consolidation and neither the Company, nor the Directors (or the Company's advisers) accept any responsibility for the individual taxation consequences arising from the Consolidation.

The Chairperson intends to exercise all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1. If the Chairperson of the Meeting is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chairperson is to vote on Resolution 1, by signing and returning the Proxy Form, the Shareholder is considered to have provided the Chairperson with an express authorisation for the Chairperson to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chairperson's intention. The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.

Section 3 Information pertaining to Resolutions 2 and 3

  • Resolution 2 – Approval for participation in a unsecured Convertible Note Loan and Pre-Approval for the issue of related Shares to GTT Ventures, the Company’s Corporate Advisor, deemed to be an Associate of Company Director Patrick Glovac.

  • Resolution 3 – Approval for participation in a unsecured Convertible Note Loan and Pre-Approval for the issue of related Shares to Mr Ian McCubbing, Chairman of the Company and therefore a related party.

3.1General

The Issue falls within Listing Rule 10.11 which of rules 10.11.1 (Ian McCubbing) 10.11.4 (GTT) applies and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of PRM’s shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.

The Company is seeking Shareholder approval for related parties’ participation in unsecured Convertible Note Loans, and to approve the issue of Shares to those parties if their rights are exercised in accordance with their participation in the unsecured Convertible Note Loan to the Company. The related parties are Mr Ian McCubbing, non-executive Chairman of the Company and GTT Ventures Pty Ltd (GTT), the Company’s Corporate Advisor.

If Resolutions 2 and 3 are passed the Company will be able accept the loan of funds ($75,000) and to issue Shares to the related parties in conversion of loans made to the Company. If either resolution is not passed, the associated funds will be immediately repayable in cash by the Company and no Securities will be issued to the parties.

As announced on 22 May 2020 – following the proposed Consolidation of capital contemplated in Resolution 1, the Company plans to execute a capital raising for an amount in the order of $350,000 before costs. This will be announced and executed in July once the share consolidation has taken effect (assuming Resolution 1 is passed) and there have been a few trading

days to establish a post consolidation price. The Directors will ensure all shareholders are given an offer to participate in the raise at the same price once set.

The Company has written confirmation from existing shareholders for a minimum subscription totalling $200,000 (of which $50,000 is from GTT). Furthermore, the Company has indication from the Company’s Corporate Advisor (GTT) that underwriting will likely be available once the terms and price are set.

$75,000 for working capital has been made available to the Company in immediate Loans, $25,000 from GTT and $50,000 from Mr Ian McCubbing, Non-Executive Chairman of the Company, (together “May Con Note”) . These loans have been made as Convertible Note loans and are on largely the same commercial terms as the $250,000 Convertible Note terms announced in December 2019 and approved by Shareholders at an EGM on 30[th] January 2020 “ January Con Notes ”. The May Con Notes do not include any options or establishment fee, that was part of the January Con Note terms. Due to the Coronavirus market disruptions, the January Con Notes have had the repayment date extended to 30 September 2020 by mutual written agreement between the Company and the Note Holders.

Summary of the Terms of May Con Note The Company proposes to raise $75,000 by way of an unsecured Convertible Note. The notes will be repayable on 30 September 2020 if not exercised prior at a 20% discount to the share price achieved for an equity-based capital raising conducted during the term of the note. The coupon rate is 10% pa payable at maturity. The note may be converted at the election of the Note holder.

The May Con Notes totalling $75,000, that are the subject of Resolutions 2 and 3, are intended to be only short term working capital loans and will be repaid from the capital raising planned for July/August 2020 by the Company or converted into shares at that time. The conversion of the May Con Note is at the option of the holders, however if the Company were to repay the loan in cash, the May Con Note Securities would not be issued.

May Con Note Securities ” are made up of

  • I. “Chairman Securities” will consist of Shares issued at 80% of the upcoming capital raising price, up to a value of $50,000 plus interest. The interest on $50,000 for up to 3 months at 10% per annum, is estimated to be approximately $1,250.

  • II. “GTT Securities” will consist of Shares issued at 80% of the upcoming capital raising price, up to a value of $25,000 plus interest. The interest on $25,000 for up to 3 months at 10% per annum, is estimated to be approximately $625.

Information regarding the Company’s relationship with GTT.

GTT is engaged as the Company’s Corporate Advisor and has provided corporate advisory and capital raising services for the Company.

Mr Patrick Glovac is a Non-Executive Director of Prominence Energy NL, and is also a Director and Shareholder of GTT. Whilst GTT is not an entity controlled by Mr Glovac, and therefore not a related party under section 208 of the Corporations Act, GTT may be considered an Associate of Mr Glovac under listing Rule 10.11.4.

3.2 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Under section 208 of the Corporations Act, for a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company must:

  • (a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and

  • (b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,

unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.

The GTT Securities will result in the issue of Securities to an Associate of one of the Company’s Directors Mr Patrick Glovac. Whilst not deemed a related party under Section 208, this constitutes the giving of a financial benefit to an Associated Party as GTT is an associate of Mr Glovac under listing Rule 10.11.4.

The Directors, consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the May Con Note Securities because the securities to be issued to GTT and Mr McCubbing will be issued on the same terms as securities that would be issued to non-related parties (January Con Note). Accordingly, the Directors consider that the issue of the Shares to GTT and Mr McCubbing (or their nominees) is on arm’s length terms in accordance with section 210 of the Corporations Act.

3.3 Listing Rule 10.11

Listing Rule 10.11 also requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a Related Party or an Associated Party unless an exception in Listing Rule 10.12 applies.

8

ABN 69 009 196 810 (Incorporated in Western Australia)

==> picture [88 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

As the Company is proposing to issue Securities to GTT Ventures who are deemed an Associated party of one of the Directors (10.11.4), and the Chairman of the Company (10.11.1), Mr Ian McCubbing, 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 Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply to the issue of the GTT Securities or Chairman Securities.

3.4 Information required by Listing Rule 10.13 and 14.1

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the GTT Securities and Chairman Securities:

(a) The Shares will be issued to:

GTT Global Opportunities Pty Ltd (GTT) – category 10.11.4 – an associate of a person referred to in rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3.

Mr Ian McCubbing - category 10.11.1 – a related party referred to in rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3.

  • (b) The maximum number of Shares to be issued to GTT and Mr Ian McCubbing if they exercise their rights under the Convertible Note, is variable and according to a formula (Resolutions 2 and 3).

The Convertible Note Securities will be issued at a 20% discount to the share price achieved for an equity-based capital raising conducted during the term of the note, so the exact number is variable according to the pricing.

For example, based on the Company raising funds at 1c, and GTT converting A$25,000 and Mr Ian McCubbing converting $50,000, the Company would issue a total of 9,609,375 Shares (3,203,125 to GTT and 6,406,250 to Mr Ian McCubbing, (post consolidation basis)) being $75,000 at 80% of 1c and 234,375 Shares in lieu of $1,875 of interest.

  • (c) The Convertible Note Certificates will be issued 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 Listing Rules).

  • (d) The maturity date of the Convertible Note is 30 September 2020. The Loan will either be repaid or converted to securities by that date.

(e) The Company will be loaned $25,000 by GTT and $50,000 from Mr Ian McCubbing. These funds will be used for working capital.

  • (f) The Shares issued to GTT and Mr McCubbing if the loan is converted, will be fully paid Ordinary Shares of the Company, issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares.

(g) The Company will apply to the ASX for official quotation of the Shares.

  • (h) Mr Ian McCubbing is a related party as Non-Executive Chairman of the Company and GTT is deemed an Associate of Mr Glovac. This issue is not related to either the renumeration or incentivisation of Mr Glovac or Mr McCubbing .

If Resolution 2 and/or 3 is passed, Prominence Energy will be able to proceed with the issue of a Convertible Note Certificate (Security) to each participant. That Certificate/loan will be convertible to Shares in the next capital raising as detailed above.

If Resolution 2 and/or 3 is not passed, Prominence Energy will not be able to issue the convertible note certificates (Security) and the loans advance to the Company will be repayable in cash only. This will require the Company to raise additional funds from the capital raise to repay the loans.

Voting Exclusion: The Company will disregard any votes cast in favour of Resolution 2 by or on behalf of GTT Ventures or Mr Patrick Glovac or an associate of Mr Glovac or GTT Ventures and discard any votes cast in favour of Resolution 3 by or on behalf of Mr Ian McCubbing or an Associate of Mr Ian McCubbing. However, this does not apply to a vote cast

in favour of a resolution by a person as a proxy or attorney for a person who is entitled to vote on the resolutions, in accordance with directions given to the proxy or attorney to vote on the resolution in that way, or the chair of the meeting as proxy or attorney for a person who is entitled to vote on the resolution, in accordance with a direction given to the chair to vote on the resolution as the chair decides; or a holder acting solely in a nominee, trustee, custodial or other fiduciary capacity on behalf of a beneficiary provided the following conditions are met: (i) the beneficiary provides written confirmation to the holder that the beneficiary is not excluded from voting, and is not an associate of a person excluded from voting on the resolution and (ii) the holder votes on the resolution in accordance with directions given by the beneficiary to the holder to vote in that way.

Approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the May Con Note Securities as Shareholder approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of the Shares to GTT and Mr McCubbing will not use up the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

The Chairperson of the meeting intends to exercise all undirected proxies in favour of Resolutions 2 and 3. If the Chairperson of the Meeting is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chairperson is to vote on Resolution 2 and 3, by signing and returning the Proxy Form, the Shareholder is considered to have provided the Chairperson with an express authorisation for the Chairperson to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chairperson's intention.

The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolutions 2 and 3.
