1 E X P L A N A T O R Y S T A T E M E N T
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide Shareholders with material information to enable them to make an informed decision on the business to be conducted at the General Meeting of Red Mountain Mining Limited ( Company ).

2 RESOLUTION 1 – RATIFICATION OF ISSUE OF 56,402,883 SHARES
2.1 Background
On 24 October 2014, the Company issued 56,402,833 Shares at an issue price of $0.006 per Share, pursuant to a placement to sophisticated investors to raise approximately $338,417 million under the Company’s annual 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 ( Placement ).
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 broadly provides that a company may, during any 12 month period, issue equity securities up to 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period without shareholder approval.
ASX Listing Rule 7.4 permits the ratification of securities issued without shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1), those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1. The purpose of such ratification is to restore the company’s power to issue further securities without shareholder approval within the 15% limit.
Accordingly, Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder ratification of the issue of the Shares under ASX Listing Rule 7.4 to provide flexibility for the Company to issue equity securities in the future under the 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.
2.2 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.5
Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to the issue of the Shares the subject of this Resolution:
-
(a) 56,402,833 Shares were issued at an issue price of $0.006 per Share;
-
(b) the Shares issued were fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares;
-
(c) the Shares were issued to new and existing shareholders all of whom were professional and sophisticated investors and not related parties of the Company;
-
(d) the funds raised from the issue of the Shares have and will be applied towards further exploration of the Lobo gold prospect at the Company’s Batangas Project in the Philippines and general working capital; and
-
(e) a voting exclusion statement for Resolution 1 is included in the Notice of Meeting preceding this Explanatory Statement.
2.3
Board recommendation
The Directors unanimously recommend Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.
3. RESOLUTION 2 – RATIFICATION OF ISSUE OF 56,402,833 OPTIONS
3.1 Background

The Company proposes to issue 56,402,833 Options on or around 17 November 2014 under the Company’s annual 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

How to Vote on Items of Business
All your securities will be voted in accordance with your directions.
Appointment of Proxy
Voting 100% of your holding: Direct your proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite each item of business. If you do not mark a box your proxy may vote or abstain as they choose (to the extent permitted by law). If you mark more than one box on an item your vote will be invalid on that item.
Voting a portion of your holding: Indicate a portion of your voting rights by inserting the percentage or number of securities you wish to vote in the For, Against or Abstain box or boxes. The sum of the votes cast must not exceed your voting entitlement or 100%.
Appointing a second proxy: You are entitled to appoint up to two proxies to attend the meeting and vote on a poll. If you appoint two proxies you must specify the percentage of votes or number of securities for each proxy, otherwise each proxy may exercise half of the votes. When appointing a second proxy write both names and the percentage of votes or number of securities for each in Step 1 overleaf.
A proxy need not be a securityholder of the Company.
Signing Instructions
Individual: Where the holding is in one name, the securityholder must sign.
Joint Holding: Where the holding is in more than one name, all of the securityholders should sign.
Power of Attorney: If you have not already lodged the Power of Attorney with the registry, please attach a certified photocopy of the Power of Attorney to this form when you return it.
Companies: Where the company has a Sole Director who is also the Sole Company Secretary, this form must be signed by that person. If the company (pursuant to section 204A of the Corporations Act 2001) does not have a Company Secretary, a Sole Director can also sign alone. Otherwise this form must be signed by a Director jointly with either another Director or a Company Secretary. Please sign in the appropriate place to indicate the office held. Delete titles as applicable.
