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

1.2 Proxies

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.

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;

The Interconditional Resolutions are inter-conditional, meaning that each of them will only take effect if all of them are approved by the requisite majority of Shareholders' votes at the Meeting.

(Chater) (Chater Option), which holds exploration licences 2338804 and 2339405 (Chater Licences). Atlas intends to exercise its right to acquire Chater, in order for Atlas to hold all 3 Licences.

Cocam an unrelated party to the Company, holds an exclusive option to acquire Atlas. The Company has entered into a share sale agreement to acquire 100% of the issued capital of Cocam and thereby an indirect interest to acquire Atlas (Cocam Acquisition).

In consideration for an exclusivity fee of $25,000, Atlas has granted the Company a 60 day exclusivity period, from the execution of the Sale Agreement, to conduct due diligence on Atlas, Chater and the Licences. As announced on 6 June 2018, the due diligence period was extended for a further 30 days by way of a letter agreement.

Under the Sale Agreement, Atlas grants the Company 5 options to acquire (or be issued) interests equal to 20% of the Shares on issue in Atlas. In order to execute the various stages of the Acquisition, the Company must issue to the shareholders of Atlas and Cocam in aggregate, Shares and cash consideration as follows:

  • (e) (Stage 5): US$200,000 and 120,000,000 Shares within 6 months and 5 days from the completion of Stage 4, in consideration for a further interest in Atlas of 20%, such that the Company (or its nominee) will have acquired or been issued a 100% interest in the share capital of Atlas at the completion of Stage 5,

(together, the Stages).

The Company has the right to accelerate the exercise of any of the above Stages and, as such, has sought approval from shareholders to issue up to 610,000,000 Shares. This approval, if granted, will enable the Company to exercise one or more of Stages 2 to 5 within the 3 month period following shareholder approval and acquire up to a 100% interest in Atlas.

As at the date of this Notice, the Company has not yet completed due diligence on the Licenses and has not yet formed a view on whether it may elect to exercise Stage 1 and accelerate the exercise of any of the remaining Stages.

  • (a) seek shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 in respect of the relevant Stage; or

6. Resolution 3 – Approval of Employee Securities Incentive Plan

6.1 General

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval for the adoption of a new employee incentive plan titled "Clancy Exploration Limited Employee Securities Incentive Plan" in accordance with Listing Rule 7.2 exception 9(b).

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.

Resolution 3 is an ordinary resolution.

The Chair intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of Resolution 3.

6.2 Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.2, exception 9(b)

A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is in Section 4.1 above.

Listing Rule 7.2, exception 9(b) provides an exception to Listing Rule 7.1 such that issues of Equity Securities under an employee incentive scheme are exempt for a period of 3 years from the date on which shareholders approve the issue of Equity Securities under the scheme as an exception to Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities under the Plan to eligible participants over a period of 3 years without impacting on the Company's ability to issue up to 15% of its total ordinary securities without Shareholder approval in any 12 month period.

Shareholders should note that the Plan has not previously been approved by Shareholders and no Securities have previously been issued under the Plan.

Pursuant to the Listing Rules, Shareholders must re-approve the Plan and all unallocated Securities issuable pursuant thereto every 3 years.

The objective of the Plan is to attract, motivate and retain key Directors, employees and contractors and it is considered by the Company that the adoption of the Plan and the future issue of Equity Securities under the Plan will provide selected participants with the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company.

Any future issues of Equity Securities under the Plan to a related party or a person whose relation with the Company or the related party is, in ASX's opinion, such that approval should be obtained will require additional Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14 at the relevant time.

A summary of the key terms and conditions of the Plan is set out in Schedule 3. In addition, a copy of the Plan is available for review by Shareholders at the registered office of the Company until the date of the Meeting. A copy of the Plan can also be sent to Shareholders upon request to the Company Secretary (Ms Oonagh Malone). Shareholders are invited to contact the Company if they have any queries or concerns.

7. Resolutions 4, 5, 6 and 7 – Issue of Performance Rights to Directors under the Plan

7.1 Background

Mr David Lenigas, the Company's Chairman, will transition from Non-Executive Chairman to Executive Chairman of the Company, reflecting the increased role Mr Lenigas will take in all aspects of the Company's activities, and the increased commitment required due to the proposed Acquisition. Mr Lenigas, as Executive Chairman, will focus primarily on strategy, strategic relationships and the capital markets.

As part of the remuneration package for Mr Lenigas, the Company agreed to issue Performance Rights to Mr Lenigas (or his nominee), subject to the receipt of prior Shareholder approval.

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of these Performance Rights to Mr Lenigas.

The issue of a further 62,000,000 Performance Rights will be made to the remaining board members.

Resolutions 5, 6 and 7 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of these Performance Rights to Messrs Scott Patrizi, Shaun Hardcastle and David Scoggin respectively.

7.2 Chapter 2E 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 or entity 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 grant of the Performance Rights constitutes giving a financial benefit and Messrs Lenigas, Patrizi, Hardcastle and Scoggins are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.

The Directors consider that the granting of the Performance Rights to each of the directors constitutes reasonable remuneration to them given both the Company's circumstances and the responsibilities involved in each of the directors' role on the board. On this basis, as the provision of such a benefit is expressly permitted by section 211(1) of the Corporations Act, the Board does not consider the Company is required to seek Shareholder approval for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act in order to give each of the directors the financial benefit that is inherent in the issue of the Performance Rights.

7.3 Listing Rule 10.14

Listing Rule 10.14 requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities under an employee incentive scheme to a director of the entity, an associate of the director, or a person whose relationship with the entity, director or associate of the director is, in ASX's opinion, such that approval should be obtained.

Resolutions 4, 5, 6 and 7 are being put to Shareholders to seek approval for the issue of the Performance Rights to the Directors pursuant to Listing Rule 10.14.

7.4 Specific information required by Listing Rule 10.15

Pursuant to, and in accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 10.15, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of Performance Rights:

  • (a) the Performance Rights will be issued under the Plan to the following Directors:

1. Eligible Participant

Eligible Participant means a person that:

  • (a) is an "eligible participant" (as that term is defined in ASIC Class Order 14/1000) in relation to the Company or an Associated Body Corporate (as that term is defined in ASIC Class Order 14/1000); and
  • (b) has been determined by the Board to be eligible to participate in the Plan from time to time.

2. Purpose

The purpose of the Plan is to:

  • (a) assist in the reward, retention and motivation of Eligible Participants;
  • (b) link the reward of Eligible Participants to Shareholder value creation; and
  • (c) align the interests of Eligible Participants with shareholders of the Group (being the Company and each of its Associated Bodies Corporate), by providing an opportunity to Eligible Participants to receive an equity interest in the Company in the form of Securities.

3. Plan administration

The Plan will be administered by the Board. The Board may exercise any power or discretion conferred on it by the Plan rules in its sole and absolute discretion. The Board may delegate its powers and discretion.

4. Eligibility, invitation and application

  • (a) The Board may from time to time determine that an Eligible Participant may participate in the Plan and make an invitation to that Eligible Participant to apply for Securities on such terms and conditions as the Boarddecides.
  • (b) On receipt of an Invitation, an Eligible Participant may apply for the Securities the subject of the invitation by sending a completed application form to the Company. The Board may accept an application from an Eligible Participant in whole or in part.
  • (c) If an Eligible Participant is permitted in the invitation, the Eligible Participant may, by notice in writing to the Board, nominate a party in whose favour the Eligible Participant wishes to renounce the invitation.

5. Grant of Securities

The Company will, to the extent that it has accepted a duly completed application, grant the Participant the relevant number of Securities, subject to the terms and conditions set out in the invitation, the Plan rules and any ancillary documentation required.

6. Terms of Convertible Securities

Each 'Convertible Security' represents a right to acquire one or more Shares (for example, under an option or performance right), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan.

Prior to a Convertible Security being exercised a Participant does not have any interest (legal, equitable or otherwise) in any Share the subject of the Convertible Security by virtue of holding the Convertible Security. A Participant may not sell, assign, transfer, grant a security interest over or otherwise deal with a Convertible Security that has been granted to them. A Participant must not enter into any arrangement for the purpose of hedging their economic exposure to a Convertible Security that has been granted to them.

7. Vesting of Convertible Securities

Any vesting conditions applicable to the grant of Convertible Securities will be described in the invitation. If all the vesting conditions are satisfied and/or otherwise waived by the Board, a vesting notice will be sent to the Participant by the Company informing them that the relevant Convertible Securities have vested. Unless and until the vesting notice is issued by the Company, the Convertible Securities will not be considered to have vested. For the avoidance of doubt, if the vesting conditions relevant to a Convertible Security are not satisfied and/or otherwise waived by the Board, that Convertible Security will lapse.

8. Exercise of Convertible Securities and cashless exercise

To exercise a Convertible Security, the Participant must deliver a signed notice of exercise and, subject to a cashless exercise of Convertible Securities (see below), pay the exercise price (if any) to or as directed by the Company, at any time prior to the earlier of any date specified in the vesting notice and the expiry date as set out in the invitation.

An invitation may specify that at the time of exercise of the Convertible Securities, Participant may elect not to be required to provide payment of the exerciseprice for the number of Convertible Securities specified in a notice of exercise, but that on exercise of those Convertible Securities the Company will transfer or issue to the Participant that number of Shares equal in value to the positive difference between the Market Value of the Shares at the time of exercise and the exercise price that would otherwise be payable to exercise those Convertible Securities.

Market Value means, at any given date, the volume weighted average price per Share traded on the ASX over the 5 trading days immediately preceding that given date, unless otherwise specified in an invitation.

A Convertible Security may not be exercised unless and until that Convertible Security has vested in accordance with the Plan rules, or such earlier date as set out in the Plan rules.

9. Delivery of Shares on exercise of Convertible Securities

As soon as practicable after the valid exercise of a Convertible Security by a Participant, the Company will issue or cause to be transferred to that Participant the number of Shares to which the Participant is entitled under the Plan rules and issue a substitute certificate for any remaining unexercised Convertible Securities held by that Participant.

10. Forfeiture of Convertible Securities

Where a Participant who holds Convertible Securities ceases to be an Eligible Participant or becomes insolvent, all unvested Convertible Securities will automatically be forfeited by the Participant, unless the Board otherwise determines in its discretion to permit some or all of the Convertible Securities to vest.

Where the Board determines that a Participant has acted fraudulently or dishonestly, or wilfully breached his or her duties to the Group, the Board may in its discretion deem all unvested Convertible Securities held by that Participant to have been forfeited.

Unless the Board otherwise determines, or as otherwise set out in the Plan rules:

  • (a) any Convertible Securities which have not yet vested will be forfeited immediately on the date that the Board determines (acting reasonably and in good faith) that any applicable vesting conditions have not been met or cannot be met by the relevant date; and
  • (b) any Convertible Securities which have not yet vested will be automatically forfeited on the expiry date specified in the invitation.

11. Change of control

If a change of control event occurs in relation to the Company, or the Board determines that such an event is likely to occur, the Board may in its discretion determine the manner in which any or all of the Participant's Convertible Securities will be dealt with, including, without limitation, in a manner that allows the Participant to participate in and/or benefit from any transaction arising from or in connection with the change of control event.

12. Rights attaching to Plan Shares

All Shares issued under the Plan, or issued or transferred to a Participant upon the valid exercise of a Convertible Security, (Plan Shares) will rank pari passu in all respects with the Shares of the same class. A Participant will be entitled to any dividends declared and distributed by the Company on the Plan Shares and may participate in any dividend reinvestment plan operated by the Company in respect of Plan Shares. A Participant may exercise any voting rights attaching to Plan Shares.

13. Disposal restrictions on Plan Shares

If the invitation provides that any Plan Shares are subject to any restrictions as to the disposal or other dealing by a Participant for a period, the Board may implement any procedure it deems appropriate to ensure the compliance by the Participant with this restriction.

For so long as a Plan Share is subject to any disposal restrictions under the Plan, the Participant will not:

  • (a) transfer, encumber or otherwise dispose of, or have a security interest granted over that Plan Share; or
  • (b) take any action or permit another person to take any action to remove or circumvent the disposal restrictions without the express written consent of the Company.

14. Adjustment of Convertible Securities

If there is a reorganisation of the issued share capital of the Company (including any subdivision, consolidation, reduction, return or cancellation of such issued capital of the Company), the rights of each Participant holding Convertible Securities will be changed to the extent necessary to comply with the Listing Rules applicable to a reorganisation of capital at the time of the reorganisation.

If Shares are issued by the Company by way of bonus issue (other than an issue in lieu of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment), the holder ofConvertible Securities is entitled, upon exercise of the Convertible Securities, to receive an allotment of as many additional Shares as would have been issued to the holder if the holder held Shares equal in number to the Shares in respect of which the Convertible Securities are exercised.

Unless otherwise determined by the Board, a holder of Convertible Securities does not have the right to participate in a pro rata issue of Shares made by the Company or sell renounceable rights.

15. Participation in new issues

There are no participation rights or entitlements inherent in the Convertible Securities and holders are not entitled to participate in any new issue of Shares of the Company during the currency of the Convertible Securities without exercising the Convertible Securities.

16. Amendment of Plan

Subject to the following paragraph, the Board may at any time amend any provisions of the Plan rules, including (without limitation) the terms and conditions upon which any Securities have been granted under the Plan and determine that any amendments to the Plan rules be given retrospective effect, immediate effect or future effect.

No amendment to any provision of the Plan rules may be made if the amendment materially reduces the rights of any Participant as they existed before the date of the amendment, other than an amendment introduced primarily for the purpose of complying with legislation or to correct manifest error or mistake, amongst other things, or is agreed to in writing by all Participants.

17. Plan duration

The Plan continues in operation until the Board decides to end it. The Board may from time to time suspend the operation of the Plan for a fixed period or indefinitely, and may end any suspension. If the Plan is terminated or suspended for any reason, that termination or suspension must not prejudice the accrued rights of the Participants.

If a Participant and the Company (acting by the Board) agree in writing that some or all of the Securities granted to that Participant are to be cancelled on a specified date or on the occurrence of a particular event, then those Securities may be cancelled in the manner agreed between the Company and the Participant.
