2.1 Impact of COVID-19 on the Meeting

The health and safety of members and personnel, and other stakeholders, is the highest priority and the Company is acutely aware of the current circumstances resulting from COVID19.

Based on the best information available to the Board at the time of the Notice, the Board considers it will be in a position to hold an 'in-person' meeting to provide Shareholders with a reasonable opportunity to participate in and vote at the Meeting, while complying with the COVID-19 restrictions regarding gatherings. The Company, however, strongly encourages Shareholders to submit proxies prior to the Meeting.

If the situation in relation to COVID-19 were to change in a way that affected the position above, the Company will provide a further update ahead of the Meeting by releasing an ASX announcement.

2.2 Voting in person

To vote in person, attend the Meeting on the date and at the place set out above.

2.3 Voting by proxy

A Proxy Form is attached to the Notice. This is to be used by Shareholders if they wish to appoint a representative (a 'proxy') to vote in their place. All Shareholders are invited and encouraged to attend the Meeting or, if they are unable to attend in person, sign and return the Proxy Form to the Company in accordance with the instructions thereon. Lodgement of a Proxy Form will not preclude a Shareholder from attending and voting at the Meeting in person.

Please note that:

  • (i) a member of the Company entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy;

  • (ii) a proxy need not be a member of the Company; and

  • (iii) a member of the Company entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint two proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise, but where the proportion or number is not specified, each proxy may exercise half of the votes.

The enclosed Proxy Form provides further details on appointing proxies and lodging Proxy Forms .

Section 250BB(1) of the Corporations Act provides that an appointment of a proxy may specify the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution and, if it does:

  • (i) the proxy need not vote on a show of hands, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed);

  • (ii) if the proxy has 2 or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on the resolution – the proxy must not vote on a show of hands;

  • (iii) if the proxy is the Chair of the meeting at which the resolution is voted on – the proxy must vote on a poll, and must vote that way (i.e. as directed); and

Page 8

  • (iv) if the proxy is not the Chair – the proxy need not vote on the poll, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed).

Section 250BC of the Corporations Act provides that, if:

  • (i) an appointment of a proxy specifies the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution at a meeting of the Company's members;

  • (ii) the appointed proxy is not the chair of the meeting;

  • (iii) at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded on the resolution; and

  • (iv) either the proxy is not recorded as attending the meeting or the proxy does not vote on the resolution,

the Chair of the meeting is taken, before voting on the resolution closes, to have been appointed as the proxy for the purposes of voting on the resolution at the meeting.

2.4

Chair's voting intentions

The Chair intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of all Resolutions, unless the Shareholder has expressly indicated a different voting intention.

If the Chair is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chair is to vote on Resolution 1 by signing and returning the Proxy Form, you are considered to have provided the Chair with an express authorisation for the Chair to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chair's intention, even though the Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the Key Management Personnel of the Company.

2.5

Submitting questions

Shareholders may submit questions in advance of the Meeting to the Company. Questions must be submitted by emailing the Company Secretary at [email protected] by 17 November 2020.

4. Resolution 1 – Remuneration Report

4.1

General

In accordance with subsection 250R(2) of the Corporations Act, the Company must put the Remuneration Report to the vote of Shareholders. The Directors' Report contains the Remuneration Report which sets out the remuneration policy for the Company and the remuneration arrangements in place for the executive Directors, specified executives and nonexecutive Directors.

In accordance with subsection 250R(3) of the Corporations Act, Resolution 1 is advisory only and does not bind the Directors. If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Directors will not be required to alter any of the arrangements in the Remuneration Report.

If the Company's Remuneration Report receives a 'no' vote of 25% or more ( Strike ) at two consecutive annual general meetings, Shareholders will have the opportunity to remove the whole Board, except the managing director (if any).

Where a resolution on the Remuneration Report receives a Strike at two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders at the second annual general meeting a resolution on whether another meeting should be held (within 90 days) at which all Directors (other than the managing director, if any) who were in office at the date of approval of the applicable Directors' Report must stand for re-election.

If the Remuneration Report receives a Strike at this Meeting, Shareholders should be aware that if a second Strike is received at the 2021 annual general meeting, this may result in the re-election of the Board.

The Chair will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders as a whole to ask about, or make comments on the Remuneration Report.

4.2 Board recommendation

Resolution 1 is an ordinary resolution.

Page 10

Given the personal interests of all Directors in this Resolution, the Board makes no recommendation to Shareholders regarding this Resolution.

5. Resolution 2 – Re-election of Director – Michael Davy

5.1

General

Article 10.3(c) of the Constitution requires that one third of the Directors (excluding the Managing Director) must retire at each annual general meeting (or if that is not a whole number, the whole number nearest to one third, rounded down).

Article 10.3(e) of the Constitution requires that the Directors to retire are those who have held their office as Director for the longest period since their last election or appointment to that office. In the event two or more Directors have held office for equal periods of time, the retiring Directors are to be determined by lot, unless otherwise agreed by those Directors.

Article 10.3(f) of the Constitution provides that a Director who retires in accordance with Article 10.3(c) is eligible for re-election.

As at the date of this Notice, the Company has three Directors and accordingly, one Director must retire. Non-Executive Chairman and Director Michael Davy was last elected at the annual general meeting held on 8 January 2018 and has held office the longest since being last elected. Michael Davy retires by rotation at this Meeting and, being eligible, seeks reelection pursuant to Resolution 2.

If elected, the Board considers Michael Davy to be an independent director.

5.2

Michael Davy

Michael Davy is an Australian executive and Accountant with over 16 years’ experience across a range of industries.

Michael previously held a senior management role in Australia for Songa Offshore (listed Norwegian Oil and Gas drilling company), where he assisted with the start-up of the Australian operations and managed the finance team for a two rig operation with multi-hundred million dollar revenues. Prior to that Michael had worked in Australia and London for other large organisations overseeing various finance functions.

Michael is currently a director and owner of a number of successful private businesses all under his personal management. During the past three years, Michael has held the following directorships in other ASX listed companies: Vanadium Resources Limited (current), Riversgold Limited (resigned 24 June 2020) and Jadar Lithium Limited (resigned 15 April 2019).

5.3 Additional information

Resolution 2 is an ordinary resolution.

The Board considers that Michael has made and continues to make a significant and valuable contribution to the Company through demonstrating a high level of corporate leadership. Michael provides the Board with extensive experience in strategy and financing. The Board believes that the qualifications, skill set and experience of Michael will continue to enhance the Board’s ability

Page 11

to perform its role. For these reasons, the Board (with Mr Davy abstaining) recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

If Resolution 2 is passed, Michael Davy will be appointed as a Non-Executive Chairman and Director of the Company.

If Resolution 2 is not passed, Michael Davy will not be appointed as an Non-Executive Chairman and Director of the Company and the Company will be required to appoint a new Director in order to have a Board comprised of at least three Directors as required by section 201A(2) of the Corporations Act.

The Company does not presently have sufficient placement capacity to issue the Consideration Shares pursuant to this 15% limit. Accordingly, the Company is seeking the approval of its Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 to issue the Consideration Shares.

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to issue the Consideration Shares and, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the remaining conditions precedent, complete the acquisition of PGC. The issue of the Consideration Shares will not use any of the Company's 15% limit on issuing Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 3 is passed, the conditions precedent to the acquisition of PGC will not have been satisfied, and the Company will not be able to complete the acquisition on the current terms.

9. Resolution 6 – Ratification of issue of Tranche 1 September Placement Shares

9.1 General

On 4 September 2020, the Company announced that it had received binding commitments for a placement to raise $1,000,000 before costs by the issue of up to a total of 142,857,143 Shares ( September Placement Shares ). The capital raising is comprised of the following three tranches:

  • (a) 107,142,857 Shares to raise $750,000 (before costs) issued as follows:

  • (i) 64,714,619 Shares under Listing Rule 7.1; and

  • (ii) 42,428,238 Shares under Listing Rule 7.1A,

(collectively, the Tranche 1 September Placement Shares );

  • (b) 7,857,143 Shares to raise $55,000 (before costs), subject to the receipt of prior Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 ( Tranche 2 September Placement Shares ); and

  • (c) up to a total of 27,857,143 Shares to raise $195,000 (before costs) (subject to Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.11) ( Tranche 3 September Placement Shares ).

On 9 September 2020, the Company issued the Tranche 1 September Placement Shares to sophisticated and professional investors using the Company's placement capacity under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.

Resolution 6(a) and (b) seeks the approval of Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 to ratify the issue of the Tranche 1 September Placement Shares.

Resolution 7 seeks the approval of Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of the Tranche 2 September Placement Shares.

Resolution 8(a), (b) and (c) seek the approval of Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11 for the issue of the Tranche 3 September Placement Shares.

9.2

Listing Rules 7.1, 7.1A and 7.4

A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is in Section 6.4.

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 comprising up to 10% of its issued capital. The Company obtained this approval at its annual general meeting held on 29 November 2019 and is seeking to refresh that approval at this Meeting, by Resolution 9.

The issue of the Tranche 1 September Placement Shares does not fit within any of the exceptions to Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, effectively uses up part of the Company's placement capacity under each of Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A. This reduces the Company's capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under those Listing Rules for the 12 month period following the issue of the Tranche 1 September Placement Shares.

Page 19

Listing Rule 7.4 provides an exception to Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A. It provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A (and provided that the previous issue did not breach Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A), those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, as applicable.

The effect of Shareholders passing Resolution 6 will be to allow the Company to retain the flexibility to issue Equity Securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1 and the additional 10% annual placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1A without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.

If Resolution 6(a) is passed, 64,714,619 Tranche 1 September Placement Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company's 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

If Resolution 6(a) is not passed, 64,714,619 Tranche 1 September Placement Shares will continue to be included in the Company's 15% limit under Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue or agree to issue without obtaining prior Shareholder approval, to the extent of 64,714,619 Equity Securities for the 12 month period following the issue of those Tranche 1 September Placement Shares.

If Resolution 6(b) is passed, 42,428,238 Tranche 1 September Placement Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company's 10% limit in Listing Rule 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

If Resolution 6(b) is not passed, 42,428,238 Tranche 1 September Placement Shares will continue to be included in the Company's 10% limit under Listing Rule 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue or agree to issue without obtaining prior Shareholder approval, to the extent of 42,428,238 Equity Securities for the 12 month period following the issue of those Tranche 1 September Placement Shares.

9.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.5

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to the ratification of the issue of the Tranche 1 September Placement Shares:

11.2 Listing Rule 10.11

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed company must not issue or agree to issue Equity Securities to:

  • (a) a related party (Listing Rule 10.11.1);

  • (b) a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial holder (30%+) in the company (Listing Rule 10.11.2);

  • (c) a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial holder (10%+) in the company and who has nominated a director to the board of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so (Listing Rule 10.11.3);

  • (d) an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3 (Listing Rule 10.11.4); or

  • (e) a person whose relation with the company or a person referred to in Listing Rule 10.11.1 or 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX's opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders (Listing Rule 10.11.5),

unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.

The Directors are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors. As the proposed issue of Director Placement Shares involves the issue of Shares to related parties of the Company, Shareholder approval pursuant to 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 in the current circumstances.

Approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the participation as approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of the Director Placement Shares will not be included in the use of the Company's 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

Page 23

If Resolution 8(a), (b) and (c) is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Director Placement Shares to the Directors (or their nominees).

If Resolution 8(a), (b) and (c) is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Director Placement Shares to the Directors (or their nominees) and will be required to consider alternative sources for such funding.

11.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 10.13

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of the Director Placement Shares:

  • (a) The Director Placement Shares will be issued to the Directors (or their respective nominees) on the basis described in Section 11.1.

  • (b) The Directors are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors and fall into the category stipulated by Listing Rule 10.11.1.

  • (c) Up to a total of 33,927,912 Shares are proposed to be issued to the Directors in the proportions described in Section 11.1.

  • (d) The Director Placement Shares issued will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company's existing Shares.

  • (e) The Director Placement Shares will be issued no later than one month after the date of the Meeting.

  • (f)

  • The issue price will be:

  • (i) in respect of the 27,857,143 Tranche 3 September Placement Shares, $0.007 per Share, being the same issue price as the Tranche 1 and Tranche 2 September Placement Shares; and

  • (ii) in respect of the 6,070,769 Tranche 2 October Placement Shares, $0.013 per Share, being the same issue price as the Tranche 1 October Placement Shares.

  • (g) The proceeds from the issue of the Director Placement Shares are intended to be used towards advancing the Company’s projects including drilling at Kalabak, to further its acquisition strategy, support other ongoing exploration across the Company's existing asset portfolio in Europe, conduct due diligence activities on the PGC Tenements and Pacton Gold Tenements and provide working capital.

  • (h) The issue is not intended to remunerate or incentivise the Directors.

  • (i) A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.

11.4 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

In accordance with Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, in order to give a financial benefit to a related party, the Company must:

  • (a) obtain Shareholder approval in the manner set out in section 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and

Page 24

  • (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 issue of the Director Placement Shares will result in the giving of a financial benefit and the Director Participants are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.

The Board considers that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the Director Placement Shares because the Shares will be issued to the Directors on the same terms as the Tranche 1 and Tranche 2 September Placement Shares and the October Placement Shares issued to non-related party participants and as such the giving of the financial benefit is on arm's length terms.

11.5

Additional Information

Each of the resolutions comprising Resolution 8 are ordinary resolutions.

The Board declines to make a recommendation as to how Shareholders vote in relation to Resolution 8 as each of the Directors have a personal interest in the relevant Resolutions.

12. Resolution 9 – Approval of 10% Placement Facility

12.1

General

Listing Rule 7.1 limits the ability of a listed entity from issuing or agreeing to issue Equity Securities over a 12 month period which exceeds 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary Shares it had on issue at the start of the 12 month period ( Relevant Period ).

Listing Rule 7.1A enables an eligible entity to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of the number of fully paid ordinary Shares it had on the issue at the start of the Relevant Period through placements over a 12 month period after the annual general meeting ( 10% Placement Facility ). The 10% Placement Facility is in addition to the Company's 15% annual placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 9 seeks Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to provide the Company the ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility during the 10% Placement Period (refer to Section 12.2(f) below). The number of Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Facility will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to Section 12.2(c) below).

12.2

Listing Rule 7.1A

(a) Is the Company an eligible entity?

An eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less.

The Company is an eligible entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of approximately $25,881,192 million, based on the closing price of Shares $0.047 on 22 October 2020.

Page 25

If on the date of the Meeting, the Company's market capitalisation exceeds $300 million or it has been included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index, this Resolution 9 will be withdrawn.

(b) What Equity Securities can be issued?

Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility must be in the same class as an existing quoted class of Equity Securities of the eligible entity.

As at the date of the Notice, the Company has on issue one quoted class of Equity Securities; Shares.

(c) How many Equity Securities can be issued?

Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that under the approved 10% Placement Facility, the Company may issue or agree to issue a number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:

(A x D) – E

Where:

  • A is the number of Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

  • (A) plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the 12 months:

    • (1) under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 (other than exception 9, 16 or 17);

    • (2) on the conversion of convertible securities within Listing Rule 7.2 exception 9 where:

      • the convertible securities were issued or agreed to be issued before the 12 month period; or

      • the issue of, or agreement to issue, the convertible securities was approved, or taken under the Listing Rules to have been approved, under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4;

    • (3) under an agreement to issue securities within Rule 7.2 exception 16 where:

      • the agreement was entered into before the 12 month period; or

      • the agreement or issue was approved, or taken under the Listing Rules to be approved, under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4; and

    • (4) with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4. This does not include any issue of Shares under the Company's 15% annual placement capacity without Shareholder approval;

Page 26

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

  • (C) 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 the Company's 15% annual 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 Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.

(d) What is the interaction with Listing Rule 7.1?

The Company's ability to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A will be in addition to its 15% annual placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • (e)

At what price can the Equity Securities be issued?

Any Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A must be issued for a cash consideration per security which is not less than 75% of the VWAP of Equity Securities in the same class calculated over the 15 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 by the Company and the recipient of the Equity Securities; or

  • (ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued,

( Minimum Issue Price ).

(f) When can Equity Securities be issued?

Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under Listing Rule 7.1A will be valid from the date of Meeting and will expire on the earlier to occur of:

  • (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the Meeting;

  • (ii) the time and date of the Company's next annual general meeting; or

  • (iii) the time and date of Shareholder approval of a transaction under Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking),

( 10% Placement Period ).

(g) What is the effect of Resolution 9?

The effect of Resolution 9 will be to allow the Directors of the Company to issue the Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the 10% Placement Period without

Page 27

further Shareholder approval or using the Company's 15% annual placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 9 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities up to the combined 25% limit in the Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A during the 10% Placement Period without any further Shareholder approval.

If Resolution 9 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the 10% Placement Facility to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A. The Company will therefore remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing Equity Securities without Shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.

12.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the following information is provided in relation to the 10% Placement Facility:

(a) Final date for issue

The Company will only issue the Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility during the 10% Placement Period (refer to Section 12.2(f) above).

(b) Minimum issue price

Where the Company issues Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility, it will only do so for cash consideration and the issue price will be not less than the Minimum Issue Price (refer to Section 12.2(e) above).

(c) Purposes of issues under 10% Placement Facility

The Company may seek to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility for cash consideration in order to raise funds for continued investment in the Company's current assets, the acquisition of new assets or investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition), and/or for general working capital.

(d) Risk of economic and voting dilution

Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:

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

  • (ii) the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for the Company's Equity Securities on the issue date,

which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the Equity Securities.

If Resolution 9 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility, the existing Shareholders' economic and voting power in the Company may be diluted as shown in the below table (in the case of Options, only if the Options are converted into Shares).

Page 28

The below table shows the dilution of existing Shareholders based on the current market price of Shares and the current number of Shares for 'A' calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (see Section 7.2(c) above) as at the date of the Notice ( Variable A ), with:

  • (i) two examples where Variable A has increased, by 50% and 100%; and

  • (ii) two examples of where the issue price of Shares has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.

Notes:

  1. The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

  2. (a) the issue price is the current market price $0.047, being the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 22 October 2020, being the latest practicable date before finalising this Notice;

  3. (b) Variable A is 550,663,653, comprising 550,663,653 existing Shares on issue as at the date of this Meeting, assuming the Company has not issued any Shares in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 or with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.4

  4. (c) the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility;

  5. (d) no convertible securities (including any issued under the 10% Placement Facility) are exercised or converted into Shares before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities; and

  6. (e) the issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares. If the issue of Equity Securities includes Quoted Options, it

Page 29

is assumed that those Quoted Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.

  1. The number of Shares on issue (ie Variable A) may increase as a result of issues of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue, scrip issued under a takeover offer or upon exercise of convertible securities) or future specific placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders' meeting.

  2. 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%.

  3. 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 Facility, based on that Shareholder's holding at the date of the Meeting.

  4. The table shows only the effect of issues of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

(e)

Allocation policy

The Company's allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Facility. The identity of the allottees of Equity Securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the following factors including but not limited to:

  • (i) the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company, including but not limited to, rights issue or other issue in which existing security holders can participate;

  • (ii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;

  • (iii) financial situation and solvency of the Company; and

  • (iv) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).

The allottees under the 10% Placement Facility have not been determined as at the date of the Notice but may include existing substantial Shareholders and/or new investors who are not related parties of or associates of a related party of the Company.

(f) Issue of Equity Securities in the past 12 months

The Company obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at its previous annual general meeting, held on 29 November 2019.

In the 12 months preceding the date of the Meeting and as at the date of this Notice, the Company issued or agreed to issue 42,428,238 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A. This represents 9.67% of the total number of Equity Securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period. Details of this issue of Equity Securities are below:

(g) Voting exclusion statement

At the date of the Notice, the Company is not proposing to make an issue of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A and has not approached any particular existing Shareholder or security holder or an identifiable class of existing security holder to participate in any such issue.

However, in the event that between the date of the Notice and the date of the Meeting, the Company proposes to make an issue of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A to one or more existing Shareholders, those Shareholders' votes will be excluded under the voting exclusion statement in the Notice.
