2. RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT

2.1 General

The Corporations Act requires that at a listed company’s annual general meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted must be put to the shareholders. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the company or the directors of the company.

The remuneration report sets out the company’s remuneration arrangements for the directors and senior management of the company. The remuneration report is part of the directors’ report contained in the annual financial report of the company for a financial year.

The chair of the meeting must allow a reasonable opportunity for its shareholders to ask questions about or make comments on the remuneration report at the annual general meeting.

2.2 Voting consequences

A company is required to put to its shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of another meeting of shareholders to consider the appointment of directors of the company ( Spill Resolution ) if, at consecutive annual general meetings, at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report and at the first of those annual general meetings a Spill Resolution was not put to vote. If required, the Spill Resolution must be put to vote at the second of those annual general meetings.

If more than 50% of votes cast are in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene a shareholder meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting.

All of the directors of the company who were in office when the directors' report (as included in the company’s annual financial report for the most recent financial year) was approved, other than the managing director of the company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting.

Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election as directors of the company is approved will be the directors of the company.

At the Company’s previous annual general meeting, the votes cast against the remuneration report were less than 25%.

3. RESOLUTION 2 –ELECTION OF DIRECTOR – MAURICE FEILICH

Pursuant to the Constitution, any Director so appointed holds office only until the next following annual general meeting and is then eligible for election by Shareholders but shall not be taken into account in determining the Directors who are to retire by rotation (if any) at that meeting.

Further, clause 13.2 of the Company’s Constitution requires at the Company's annual general meeting in every year, one-third of the Directors for the time being, or, if their number is not a multiple of 3, then the number nearest one-third (rounded upwards in case of doubt), shall retire from office, provided always that no Director except a Managing Director shall hold office for a period in excess of 3 years, or until the third annual general meeting following his or her appointment, whichever is the longer, without submitting himself for re-election.

A is the number of fully paid ordinary shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

  • (a) plus the number of fully paid ordinary shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;

  • (b) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the 12 months;

  • (c) plus the number of fully paid ordinary shares issued in the 12 months with approval of holders of shares under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid ordinary shares under the entity’s 15% placement capacity without shareholder approval;

  • (d) less the number of fully paid shares cancelled in the 12 months.

Note that A has the same meaning in Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating an entity’s 15% placement capacity.

D is 10%.

E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of the issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.

Resolution 9 is a special resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 9 for it to be passed.

10.2 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:

  • (a) 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 in section 10.2(a), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

  • (b) 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).

  • (c) 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 Shares under the issue. If Resolution 9 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 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 market price of Shares and the number of Equity Securities on issue as at 16 October 2017. The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 10% Placement Capacity.

*The number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of 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 163,167,728 existing Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice.

  2. The issue price set out above is $0.03 being closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 16 October 2017.

  3. The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity.

  4. The Company’s current Variable A is 163,167,728. The Company issued 10,000,000 shares on 26 July and 25 August 2017, 535,000 Convertible Notes on 5 April 2017 and 2,000,000 Options on 5 April 2017 that were not issued under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. Resolutions 4, 5 and 6 of this Notice of Meeting seek Shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 to ratify the issue of these securities pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1. If these Resolutions are passed, Variable A will increase in accordance with the formula outlined in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A(2).

  5. The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity consists only of Shares. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities.

  6. 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.

  7. This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

  8. 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%.

  9. 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:

  • (i) the market price for the Company’s Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and

  • (ii) the Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Shares on the date of issue.

(d) Purpose of Issue under 10% Placement Capacity

  • The Company may issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for the following purposes:

  • (i) as cash consideration in which case the Company intends to use funds raised for costs associated with the expansion and delivering of operational improvements at the Namekara Vermiculite Mine in Uganda and/or for general working capital. In addition, the Company may in future choose to evaluate new project opportunities or investments and may use the funds raised for a resulting acquisition of new assets and/or investments (including expenses associated with such acquisition); or

  • (ii) as non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new assets and/or investments, in such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by listing Rule 7.1A.3.

13

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 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 previously obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at its last annual general meeting held on 29 November 2016. The total number of Equity Securities issued by the Company in the 12 months preceding the date of this Annual General Meeting is 22,700,000. The percentage those Equity Securities represent of the total number of Equity Securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period is 14.6%. The table at Annexure B details all issues of Equity Securities by the Company during the 12 months preceding the date of this Notice as required by Listing Rule 7.3A.

(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 must 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.

10.3 Voting Exclusion

A voting exclusion statement is included in this Notice. As at the date of this Notice, the Company has not invited any existing Shareholders to participate in an issue of Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. Therefore, no existing Shareholders will be excluded from voting on Resolution 9.

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.

Each Option will entitle the holder to subscribe for one fully paid ordinary share in the Company ( Share ).

All Shares issued upon the exercise of the Options will rank equally in all respects with the Company's then existing Shares.

2. EXERCISE PRICE

The exercise price is $0.05 each ( Exercise Price ).

Each Option shall entitle the holder to acquire one Share upon payment of the Exercise Price to the Company.

3. EXERCISE OF OPTIONS

The Options may be exercised at any time prior to 30 April 2020 ( Expiry Date ) in whole or in part, by completing and delivering a duly completed form of notice of exercise to the registered office of the Company together with the payment of the exercise price in immediately available funds for the number of Shares in respect of which the Options are exercised.

An Option not exercised on or before the Expiry Date will lapse.

Shares allotted and issued pursuant to the exercise of the Options will be allotted and issued, and a holding statement or share certificate provided to the holders of Options in respect of those Shares, on the above terms and conditions not more than ten business days after the receipt of a duly completed form of notice of exercise and the exercise amount in immediately available funds in Australian dollars in respect of the Options exercised.

4. QUOTATION

6. PARTICIPATION AND ENTITLEMENTS

There are no participating rights or entitlements inherent in the Options and holders will not be entitled to participate in new issues of Securities offered to shareholders during the currency of the Options.

9. PRO-RATA ISSUE

If the Company makes a pro-rata issue of Securities (except a bonus issue) to shareholders (other than an issue in lieu or in satisfaction of dividends or by way of a dividend reinvestment) the exercise price of an Option shall be reduced according to the following formula:

Instructions for completing Proxy Form

  1. ( Appointing a proxy ): A Shareholder entitled to attend and cast a vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf at the Meeting. If a Shareholder is entitled to cast 2 or more votes at the Meeting, the Shareholder may appoint a second proxy to attend and vote on their behalf at the Meeting. However, where both proxies attend the Meeting, voting may only be exercised on a poll. The appointment of a second proxy must be done on a separate copy of the Proxy Form. A Shareholder who appoints 2 proxies may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If a Shareholder appoints 2 proxies and the appointments do not specify the proportion or number of the Shareholder’s votes each proxy is appointed to exercise, each proxy may exercise one-half of the votes. Any fractions of votes resulting from the application of these principles will be disregarded. A duly appointed proxy need not be a Shareholder.

  2. ( Direction to vote ): A Shareholder may direct a proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite each item of business. The direction may specify the proportion or number of votes that the proxy may exercise by writing the percentage or number of Shares next to the box marked for the relevant item of business. Where a box is not marked, the proxy may vote as they choose subject to the relevant laws. Where more than one box is marked on an item the vote will be invalid on that item.

3. ( Signing instructions ):

  • ( Individual ): Where the holding is in one name, the Shareholder must sign.

  • ( Joint holding ): Where the holding is in more than one name, all of the Shareholders should sign.

  • ( Power of attorney ): If you have not already provided the power of attorney with the registry, please attach a certified photocopy of the power of attorney to this Proxy Form when you return it.

  • ( Companies ): Where the company has a sole director who is also the sole company secretary, that person must sign. Where the company (pursuant to Section 204A of the Corporations Act) does not have a company secretary, a sole director can also sign alone. Otherwise, a director jointly with either another director or a company secretary must sign. Please sign in the appropriate place to indicate the office held. In addition, if a representative of a company is appointed pursuant to Section 250D of the Corporations Act to attend the Meeting, the documentation evidencing such appointment should be produced prior to admission to the Meeting. A form of a certificate evidencing the appointment may be obtained from the Company.

  • ( Attending the Meeting ): Completion of a Proxy Form will not prevent individual Shareholders from attending the Meeting in person if they wish. Where a Shareholder completes and lodges a valid Proxy Form and attends the Meeting in person, then the proxy’s authority to speak and vote for that Shareholder is suspended while the Shareholder is present at the Meeting.

  • ( Return of Proxy Form ): To vote by proxy, please complete and sign the enclosed Proxy Form and return by:

  • (a) post to Black Mountain Resources Limited, c/- Calder Roth & Co, Level 2, 34 Colin Street, West Perth, WA 6005; or
