VOTING BY PROXY

To vote by proxy, please complete and sign the enclosed Proxy Form and return by the time and in accordance with the instructions set out on the Proxy Form.

In accordance with section 249L of the Corporations Act, Shareholders are advised that:

  • each Shareholder has a right to appoint a proxy;
  • the proxy need not be a Shareholder of the Company; and
  • a Shareholder who is entitled to cast 2 or more votes may appoint 2 proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If the member appoints 2 proxies and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the member's votes, then in accordance with section 249X(3) of the Corporations Act, each proxy may exercise one-half of the votes.

Shareholders and their proxies should be aware that changes to the Corporations Act made in 2011 mean that:

  • if proxy holders vote, they must cast all directed proxies as directed; and
  • any directed proxies which are not voted will automatically default to the Chair, who must vote the proxies as directed.

Further details on these changes are set out below.

Proxy vote if appointment specifies way to vote

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:

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

Transfer of non-chair proxy to chair in certain circumstances

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

  • 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; and
  • the appointed proxy is not the chair of the meeting; and
  • at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded on the resolution; and
  • either of the following applies:
    • 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.

DATED: 16 OCTOBER 2015

BY ORDER OF THE BOARD

DAMIAN HICKS MANAGING DIRECTOR

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 which are the subject of the business of the Meeting.

1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND REPORTS

In accordance with the Constitution, 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 2015 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.hannansreward.com.

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 Directors or 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 the financial year ending 30 June 2015.

A reasonable opportunity will be provided for discussion of the remuneration report at the Annual General Meeting.

2.2 Voting consequences

Under changes to the Corporations Act which came into effect on 1 July 2011, if at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report in two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of an extraordinary general meeting to consider the appointment of directors of the Company (Spill Resolution) at the second Annual General Meeting.

If more than 50% of shareholders vote in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene the extraordinary general 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 financial year ended immediately before the second Annual General Meeting) 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 reelection 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 considered at that Annual General Meeting were less than 25%. Accordingly, the Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Annual General Meeting.

2.3 Proxy restrictions

Shareholders appointing a proxy for Resolution 1 should note the following:

If you appoint a member of the Key Management Personnel as your proxy.

If you elect to appoint a member of Key Management Personnel whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report, or a Closely Related Party of that member, you must direct the proxy how they are to vote. Undirected proxies granted to these persons will not be included in any vote on Resolution 1.

If you appoint the Chair as your proxy

If you elect to appoint the Chair as your proxy, you do not need to direct the Chair how you wish them to exercise your vote on Resolution 1, however, if you would like to direct the Chair how to vote, you must indicate a different voting intention on the proxy form.

If you appoint any other person as your proxy.

You do not need to direct your proxy how to vote.

3. RESOLUTION 2 – RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTOR – MR KJELL OLOF FORSLUND

Clause 13.2 of the Constitution requires that 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 or herself for re-election.

The Directors to retire at an annual general meeting are those who have been longest in office since their last election, but, as between persons who became Directors on the same day, those to retire shall (unless they otherwise agree among themselves) be determined by drawing lots. A Director who retires by rotation under clause 13.2 of the Constitution is eligible for reelection.

The Company currently has 4 Directors and accordingly 1 must retire. Mr Kjell Olof Forslund is the Director longest in office since his appointment. The Directors agreed that Mr Kjell Olof Forslund retires by rotation and seeks re-election in this year's annual general meeting.

A biography of Mr Kjell Olof Forslund, who was first appointed as a Director in August 2012, is set out in the Company's annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2015.

The Board has considered Mr Kjell Olof Forslund's independence and considers that he is an independent Director.

The Board supports the re-election of Mr Kjell Olof Forslund as a Director of the Company and is not aware of any additional information that would be considered material to Shareholders' decision to re-elect Mr Kjell Olof Forslund.

4. RESOLUTION 3 – PLACEMENT– SHARES

4.1 General

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval for the allotment and issue of up to 500,000,000 Shares at an issue price set out below (refer to Explanatory Statement of Resolution 5 – Share Placement).

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

The effect of Resolution 3 will be to allow the Directors to issue the Shares pursuant to the Placement during the period of 3 months after the Meeting (or a longer period, if allowed by ASX), without using the Company's 15% annual placement capacity.

4.2 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to the Placement:

  • (a) the maximum number of Shares to be issued is 500,000,000;
  • (b) the Shares will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) and it is intended that allotment will occur on the same date;
  • (c) the issue price will be at least 80% of the volume weighted average price for Shares on ASX during the 5 trading days prior to the placement, or, if there is a prospectus, during the 5 trading days prior to the date the prospectus is signed;
  • (d) the Directors will determine to whom the Shares will be issued but these persons will not be related parties of the Company;
  • (e) the 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; and
  • (f) the Company intends to use the funds raised from the Placement to fund exploration on the Company's precious metals and base metals portfolio and general working capital.

5. RESOLUTION 4 – EMPLOYEE SHARE OPTIONS PLAN (RENEWAL OF APPROVALS)

5.1 General

The Company established an employee option plan with the approval of Shareholders in 2010 to attract, motivate and retain key employees. The Company's existing ESOP expired on 18 November 2013.

It is considered by the Directors that the adoption of the employee incentive scheme titled Employee Share Option Plan (ESOP) and the future grant of Plan Options under the ESOP will provide selected employees with the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company.

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholders approval for the adoption of the ESOP in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 9(b)).

5.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.2 (Exception 9)

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

An exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 9) which provides that issues under an employee incentive plan are exempt for a period of 3 years from the date on which shareholders approve the issue of securities under the plan as an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 4 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Plan Options under the ESOP 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 no Plan Options have previously been issued under the ESOP.

Any future issues of Shares under the ESOP 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 ASX Listing Rule 10.14 at the relevant time.

A summary of the terms and conditions of the ESOP is set out in Schedule 1. In addition, a copy of the ESOP is available for review by Shareholders at the registered office of the Company until the date of the Meeting. A copy of the ESOP can also be sent to Shareholders upon request to the Company Secretary. Shareholders are invited to contact the Company if they have any queries or concerns.

6. RESOLUTION 5 – APPROVAL OF 10% PLACEMENT CAPACITY– SHARES

6.1 General

ASX 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 up to 10% of its issued capital over a period up to 12 months after the annual general meeting (10% Placement Capacity).

The Company is an Eligible Entity in accordance with ASX Listing Rules.

If Shareholders approve Resolution 5, the number of Equity Securities the Eligible Entity may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out in Section 6.2 below).

The effect of Resolution 5 will be to allow the Company to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of the Company's fully paid ordinary securities on issue under the 10% Placement Capacity during the period up to 12 months after the Meeting, without subsequent Shareholder approval and without using the Company's 15% annual placement capacity granted under Listing.

Resolution 5 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 5 for it to be passed.

6.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A came into effect on 1 August 2012 and enables an Eligible Entity to seek shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to issue Equity Securities in addition to those under the Eligible Entity's 15% annual placement capacity.

An Eligible Entity is one that, as at the date of the relevant annual general meeting:

  • (a) is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index; and
  • (b) has a market capitalisation equal to or less than $300 million (excluding restricted securities and securities quoted on a deferred settlement basis).

The Company is an Eligible Entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a current market capitalisation of $4.3 million.

Any Equity Securities issued must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted Equity Securities. The Company currently has two classes of Equity Securities on issue, being Shares (ASX Code: HNR) and 36,050,000 unlisted options approved at the 2014 Annual General Meeting.

The exact number of Equity Securities that the Company may issue under an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated according to 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:
    • (i) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2;
    • (ii) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the previous 12 months;
    • (iii) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months with approval of holders of Shares under this rule. This does not include an issue of fully paid shares under the entity's 15% placement capacity without Shareholder approval; and
    • (iv) less the number of Shares cancelled in the previous 12 months.
  • D is 10%.
  • E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of holders of Ordinary Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.

6.3 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 5:

(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 6.3(b), 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),

(10% Placement Capacity Period).

(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 5 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 current market price of Shares and the current number of Equity Securities on issue as at the date of this Notice. 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.

increase) Funds raised $366,590 $733,180 $1,466,359

*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. The Company currently has 721,966,133 Shares on issue. In the event that 500,000,000 Shares are issued pursuant to Resolution 3 the Company will have a total of 1,221,966,133 Shares on issue.
    1. The issue price set out above is the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 16 October 2015.
    1. The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity.
    1. The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
    1. The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares. If the issue of Equity Securities include 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.
    1. 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.
    1. 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%.
    1. This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. 9. The unquoted options of 36,050,000 are not exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities.

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 the acquisition of new resources, assets and investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition), continued exploration expenditure on the Company's current assets and general working capital; or
  • (ii) as non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new resource assets and investments, in such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by Listing Rule 7.1A.3.

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 under the 10% Placement Capacity

The allottees of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been determined. However, the allottees 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 allottees 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).

(f) Previous Approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

The Company previously obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at last year's Annual General Meeting held on 20 November 2014 (Previous Approval).

The Company has not issued any Equity Securities pursuant to the Previous Approval.

During the 12 month period preceding the date of the Meeting, being on and from 24 November 2014, the Company otherwise issued a total of 36,050,000 Options which represents approximately 4.99% of the total diluted number of Equity Securities on issue in the Company on 24 November 2014, which was 721,966,133.

Further details of the Equity Securities issued by the Company during the 12 month period preceeding the date of the Meeting are set out below.

SCHEDULE A – SUMMARY OF EMPLOYEE SHARE OPTION PLAN TERMS AND CONDITIONS

The Company has established the Employee Share Option Plan (ESOP) in order to provide an incentive for employees to participate in the future growth of the Company. The ESOP will be administered in accordance with the ESOP rules, which are summarised below.

(a) Option issue

The Board may, in its absolute discretion, offer Options to eligible participants under the ESOP. The Options will be issued for no consideration and each Option will carry the right in favour of the Optionholder to subscribe for one Share in the capital of the Company.

An eligible participant is a full or part time employee or a Director of a company within the Hannans Reward Limited group of companies. The Company must obtain Shareholder approval before the participation under the ESOP of an eligible participant who is a Director of, or otherwise a related party of the Company.

The Board may impose performance criteria such as vesting hurdles.

The Options issued under the ESOP are not transferable.

(b) Restrictions

The Options may only be issued or exercised within the limitations imposed by the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules.

Further, the total number of Shares that would be issued under the ESOP where each Option issued pursuant to the ESOP is exercised, and the number of Shares issued by the Company pursuant to an employee share or option scheme implemented by the Company during the previous 5 years may not exceed 5% of the total number of Shares on issue as at the date any Options are offered pursuant to the ESOP.

(c) Exercise price and expiry date

The exercise price of the Options to be issued under the ESOP will be determined by the Board, but to the extent that the ASX Listing Rules specified or require a minimum price, the Option exercise price in respect of an offer made following first quotation must not be less than any minimum price specified in the ASX Listing Rules. The expiry date will be determined by the Board.

(d) Exercise of Options

If performance criteria are imposed on an Optionholder, that Optionholder may only exercise their Options upon satisfaction of the performance criteria and prior to the expiry date. Notwithstanding this, all Options may be exercised during a takeover period or, in the Board's discretion, upon the death or permanent disablement of an eligible participant.

(e) Notice of exercise

Options may only be exercised by the Optionholder delivering an option exercise notice to the Company specifying the number of Options being exercised and accompanied by the exercise price for the Options specified in the option exercise notice and the certificates for those Options.

(f) Bonus issue

If, prior to the expiry of any Options, the Company makes a bonus share issue to the holders of Shares on a pro rata basis, the number of Shares over which an Option is exercisable will be increased by the number of Shares which the Optionholder would have received if the Option had been exercised before the date the Shares the subject of the bonus issue had been duly allotted and issued.

(g) Unquoted

The Company will not apply for quotation of the Options on ASX.

(h) Quotation of Shares issued on exercise

If admitted to the official list of ASX at the time, application will be made by the Company to ASX for quotation of the Shares issued upon the exercise of the Options.

(i) Reconstruction of capital

In the event that prior to the expiry of any Options, there is a reconstruction (including consolidation, subdivision, reduction, return or pro-rata cancellation) of the issued capital of the Company, then the number of Options to which each Optionholder is entitled or the exercise price or both will be reconstructed in the manner required by the ASX Listing Rules.

(j) Pro-rata issues

In the event the Company makes a pro-rata issue of securities, the exercise price of the Options will be adjusted in accordance with the formula set out in ASX Listing Rule 6.22.2.

(k) Administration of the ESOP

The Board will supervise the administration of the ESOP and has discretion to amend the rules.

Instructions for Completing 'A ppointment of Proxy' Form

    1. (Appointing a Proxy): A member entitled to attend and cast a vote at an Annual General Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf at the meeting. In accordance with section 249L of the Corporations Act, members are advised that:
    • each member has a right to appoint a proxy;
    • the proxy need not be a member of the Company; and
    • a member who is entitled to cast 2 or more votes may appoint 2 proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If the member appoints 2 proxies and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the member's votes, then in accordance with section 249X(3) of the Corporations Act, each proxy may exercise one-half of the votes.

New sections 250BB and 250BC of the Corporations Act came into effect on 1 August 2011 and apply to voting by proxy on or after that date. Shareholders and their proxies should be aware of these changes to the Corporations Act, as they will apply to this Annual General Meeting. Broadly, the changes mean that:

  • if proxy holders vote, they must cast all directed proxies as directed; and
  • any directed proxies which are not voted will automatically default to the Chair, who must vote the proxies as directed.
    1. (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.
    1. (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.
    1. (Return of Proxy Form): To vote by proxy, please complete and sign the enclosed Proxy Form and return by:
    • (a) post to Hannans Reward Limited, PO Box 1227, West Perth WA 6872;
