EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.
1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND REPORTS
In accordance with the Corporations Act, the business of the Meeting will include receipt and consideration of the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2020 together with the declaration of the Directors, the Directors’ report, the Remuneration Report and the auditor’s report.
The Company will not provide a hard copy of the Company’s annual financial report to Shareholders unless specifically requested to do so. The Company’s annual financial report is available on its website at www.redmountainmining.com.au.
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.

/1464_7
2.3 Previous voting results
At the Company’s previous annual general meeting the votes cast against the remuneration report considered at that annual general meeting were less than 25%. Accordingly, the Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Annual General Meeting.
3. RESOLUTION 2 – RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTOR – LINCOLN HO
3.1 General
Listing Rule 14.4 and clause 7.3(a) of the Constitution provide that, other than a managing director, a director of an entity must not hold office (without reelection) past the third annual general meeting following the director’s appointment or 3 years, whichever is the longer. However, where there is more than one managing director, only one is entitled to be exempt from this rotation requirement.
Lincoln Ho who has served as a Director since 01 July 2016 and was last re-elected on 14 November 2017, retires by rotation and seeks re-election.
3.2 Qualifications and other material directorships
Lincoln has almost a decade of experience in equities trading, with a strong focus in corporate restructuring, due diligence, mergers & acquisitions in the emerging companies sector. He has investor relations experience in Asia, having liaised with high net-worth investors in Singapore and China.
Mr Ho serves as a board director of the Pioneer Development Fund (Aust) Limited, designed and implemented by the Australian Government to facilitate the supply of equity capital to Australia’s Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs).
During the past three years, Mr Ho held the following directorships in other ASX listed companies: Pure Minerals Limited (resigned 14 May 2019) and Sultan Resources Limited (resigned 12 March 2019).
3.3 Independence
If re-elected the Board considers Lincoln Ho will be an independent Director.
3.4 Board recommendation
The Board has reviewed Lincoln Ho’s performance since his appointment to the Board and considers that Lincoln Ho’s skills and experience will continue to enhance the Board’s ability to perform its role. Accordingly, the Board supports the re-election of Lincoln Ho and recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.
4. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL OF 7.1A MANDATE
4.1 General
Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of Equity Securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that period.
8
NOM AGM - RMW (ASX Approved Version) 23 10 2020(2511967.5)
However, under Listing Rule 7.1A, an eligible entity may seek shareholder approval by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25% ( 7.1A Mandate ).
An ‘eligible entity’ means an entity which is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300,000,000 or less. The Company is an eligible entity for these purposes.
Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval by way of special resolution for the Company to have the additional 10% placement capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval.
If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities up to the combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without any further Shareholder approval.
If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the additional 10% capacity to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A, and will remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing Equity Securities without Shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.
4.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.1A
Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to Resolution 3:
- (a) Period for which the 7.1A Mandate is valid
The 7.1A Mandate will commence on the date of the Meeting and expire on the first to occur of the following:
-
(i) the date that is 12 months after the date of this Meeting;
-
(ii) the time and date of the Company’s next annual general meeting; and
-
(iii) the time and date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change in the nature or scale of activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of the main undertaking).
(b) Minimum Price
Any Equity Securities issued under the 7.1A Mandate must be in an existing quoted class of Equity Securities and be issued at a minimum price of 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that 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 entity and the recipient of the Equity Securities; or
-
(ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 trading days of the date in Section 7.2(b)(i), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
-
(c) Use of funds raised under the 7.1A Mandate
9
NOM AGM - RMW (ASX Approved Version) 23 10 2020(2511967.5)
The Company intends to use funds raised from issues of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate for the following purposes:
-
(i) acquisition of new assets or investments (including expenses associated with such acquisition);
-
(ii) continued exploration and expenditure on the Company’s current assets;
-
(iii) the development of the Company’s current business; and
-
(iv) general working capital
-
(d) Risk of Economic and Voting Dilution
Any issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue.
If Resolution 3 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 7.1A Mandate, 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 Listing Rule 7.1A.2, on the basis of the closing market price of Shares and the number of Equity Securities on issue as at 15 October 2020.
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 7.1A Mandate.
| Dilution | Dilution | Dilution | |||

$1,465,519 | $2,931,038 | $4,396,557 |
*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 prorata 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:
-
There are currently 1,127,322,489 Shares on issue comprising:
-
(a) 1,127,322,489 existing Shares as at the date of this Notice of Meeting;
10
NOM AGM - RMW (ASX Approved Version) 23 10 2020(2511967.5)
-
The issue price set out above is the closing market price of the Shares on the ASX on 15 October 2020.
-
The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate.
-
The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
-
The issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate consists only of Shares. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities. If the issue of Equity Securities includes quoted Options, it is assumed that those quoted Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.
-
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.
-
This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under Listing Rule 7.1 unless otherwise disclosed.
-
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%.
-
The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 7.1A mandate, 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.
(e) Allocation policy under the 7.1A Mandate
The recipients of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 7.1A Mandate 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 7.1A Mandate, 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, share purchase plan, placement 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
11
NOM AGM - RMW (ASX Approved Version) 23 10 2020(2511967.5)
-
(vi) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).
-
(f) Previous approval under Listing Rule 7.1A
The Company previously obtained approval from its Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 28 November 2019 ( Previous Approval ).
During the 12-month period preceding the date of the Meeting, being on and from 30 November 2019, the Company issued 161,285,714 Shares pursuant to the Previous Approval ( Previous Issue ), which represent approximately 15.61% of the total diluted number of Equity Securities on issue in the Company on 30 November 2019, which was 1,033,247,428.
Further details of the issues of Equity Securities by the Company pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A.2 during the 12 month period preceding the date of the Meeting are set out in Schedule 1.
4.3 Voting Exclusion Statement
As at the date of this Notice, the Company is not proposing to make an issue of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A. Accordingly, a voting exclusion statement is not included in this Notice.
5. RESOLUTION 4 AND 5 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF PLACEMENT SHARES
5.1 General
As announced on 25 September 2020, the Company successfully completed a capital raising for a placement of 114,285,714 shares at a price of A$0.007 per share to professional and sophisticated investors to raise $800,000 (before costs) ( Placement Shares ). One attaching option (exercisable at 0.8c per share, expiring 14 July 2021) for every two Placement Shares was issued to participants ( Placement ).
100,285,714 Placement Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s 7.1A mandate which was approved by Shareholders at the annual general meeting held on 28 November 2019 (being, the subject of Resolution 4) and 14,000,000 Placement Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 (being, the subject of Resolution 5).
The Company engaged the services of Xcel Capital Pty Ltd (ACN 617 047 319) an authorised representative Gameplay Capital Pty Ltd (AFSL No. 51738) ( Xcel Capital ) to manage the Placement. Pursuant to the Lead Manager Mandate, the Company agreed to:
-
(a) pay Xcel Capital a capital raising fee of 6% (exclusive of GST) on the gross proceeds of all funds raised by Xcel Capital under the Placement;
-
(b) issue Xcel Capital (or its nominee) 30,000,000 unquoted options (exercisable at $0.011 and expiring 24 months from the date of issue) ( Lead Manager Options ) in consideration for its services in relation to the Placement.
12
NOM AGM - RMW (ASX Approved Version) 23 10 2020(2511967.5)
5.2 Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A
Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that 12 month period.
Under Listing Rule 7.1A however, an eligible entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25%.
The Company’s ability to utilise the additional 10% capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A for issues of equity securities following this Meeting remains conditional on Resolution 3 being passed by the requisite majority at this Meeting.
The issue of the Placement Shares does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Placement Shares.
5.3
Listing Rule 7.4
Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.
The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1.

The Company’s ability to utilise the additional 10% capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A for issues of equity securities following this Meeting remains conditional on Resolution 3 being passed at this Meeting.
The issue of the Free Attaching Options does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Free Attaching Options.
Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Free Attaching Options.

If Resolution 6 is not passed, the Free Attaching Options will be included in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Free Attaching Options.

The issue of the Lead Manager Options does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Lead Manager Options.

NOM AGM - RMW (ASX Approved Version) 23 10 2020(2511967.5)
Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.
The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Lead Manager Options.

7.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 7 is not passed, the Lead Manager Options will be included in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Lead Manager Options.
It is noted that the Company’s ability to utilise the additional 10% capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A for issues of equity securities following this Meeting remains conditional on Resolution 3 being passed at this Meeting.

8. RESOLUTION 8 AND 9 – ISSUE OF OPTIONS TO DIRECTORS – JEREMY KING AND LINCOLN HO
8.1 General
The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, to issue 25,000,000 Options ( Options ) to Jeremy King and Lincoln Ho (or their nominee) on the terms and conditions set out below.
Resolutions 8 and 9 seek Shareholder approval for the issue of the Options to Mr King and Mr Ho (or their nominee).
8.2 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 issue of Options to Mr King and Mr Ho (or their nominee) constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mr King and Mr Ho are related parties of the Company by virtue of being a Directors.
The Director (other than Mr King and Mr Ho who have a material personal interest in the Resolution) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the grant of Options because the agreement to issue the Options, reached as part of the remuneration package for Mr King and Mr Ho, is considered reasonable remuneration in the circumstances and was negotiated on an arm’s length basis.
8.3
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:
10.11.1 a related party;
- 10.11.2 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the company;
18
NOM AGM - RMW (ASX Approved Version) 23 10 2020(2511967.5)
-
10.11.3 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (10%+) holder 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;
-
10.11.4 an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3; or
-
10.11.5 a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders,
unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.
The issue of Options falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.
Resolutions 8 and 9 seek the required Shareholder approval for the issue of the Options under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.
8.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If Resolutions 8 and 9 are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Options to Mr King and Mr Ho within one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules). As approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Options (because approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11), the issue of the Options will not use up any of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.
If Resolutions 8 and 9 are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Options.
8.5 Technical 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 Resolutions 8 and 9:
-

-
(g) the current total remuneration package for Mr King is $131,400, comprising of $120,000 salary and superannuation payment of $11,400.

Mr Flannery is an unrelated party to the Company and it is envisaged he will provide advice concerning the technical strategy surrounding its projects. Initially, the consultancy will span a 6-month period.
As part of Mr Flannery’s remuneration for his services, the Company has agreed to:
-
(a) pay Mr Flannery a fee of $3,000 per month plus GST; and
-
(b) subject to this resolution being approved by Shareholders, the Company shall issue Jack Rory Pty Ltd (or its nominee) 5,000,000 unquoted options, on the terms set out in Schedule 4 ( Consultancy Options ).

The proposed issue of the Consultancy Options does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2. While the issue does not exceed the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 and can therefore be made without breaching that rule, the Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval pursuant to
20
NOM AGM - RMW (ASX Approved Version) 23 10 2020(2511967.5)
Listing Rule 7.1 so that it does not use up any of its 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
9.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If Resolution 10 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Consultancy Options. In addition, the issue of the Consultancy Options will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolution 10 is not passed, the issue of the Consultancy Options can still proceed but it will reduce, to that extent, the Company’s capacity to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for 12 months following the issue.
Resolution 10 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of the Consultancy Options.
9.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.1
