3. Selective Capital Reduction
3.1 Background
The Performance Shares were issued to Indigo on or about 24 October 2012 as part consideration for the acquisition by the Company from Indigo of a 100% interest in the Mauritian Companies and their subsidiaries (which own coal and uranium projects located in the United Republic of Tanzania in East Africa) in accordance with the Acquisition Agreement. Shareholder approval for the issue of the Performance Shares was obtained on 31 July 2012.
Subsequent to the Acquisition Agreement, the Company and Indigo entered into a letter deed whereby it was agreed that the Performance Shares would be cancelled ( Letter Deed ). The material terms of the Letter Deed are as follows:
-
(a) the Class A Performance Shares and Class B Performance Shares will be cancelled by the Company in accordance with section 256C of the Corporations Act;
-
(b) no consideration will be provided to Indigo in respect of the cancellation of the Performance Shares;
-
(a) Indigo irrevocably agrees to do all things necessary to give effect to the cancellation, including providing any approvals or consents, executing any agreements and to the extent necessary voting in favour or any required resolutions; and
-
(c) subject to the Performance Shares being cancelled, on and from the date of the cancellation of the Performance Shares, Indigo unconditionally and irrevocably releases and discharges the Company (and if applicable, its officers and employees) from all obligations, undertakings and liabilities of any nature, and all actions, suits, claims, demands, causes of action, costs and expenses, whether legal, equitable, under statute or otherwise, which Indigo:
-
(i) currently has;
-
(ii) at any time had;
-
(iii) may have; or
-
(iv) but for the Letter Deed, could or might have had,
against the Company in any way relating to the cancellation of the Performance Shares, or circumstances arising out of or in any way connected or related to the Performance Shares.
Accordingly, Resolutions 1 and 2 seek Shareholder approval for the reduction of capital by way of the cancellation of 25,000,000 Class A Performance Shares and 25,000,000 Class B Performance Shares held by Indigo, being all of the Performance Shares on issue.
3.2 Corporations Act
The Corporations Act provides that the rules relating to a reduction of share capital are designed to protect the interests of shareholders and creditors by:
-
(a) addressing the risk of the transaction leading to the Company’s solvency;
-
(b) seeking to ensure fairness between the shareholders of the Company; and
5
- (c) requiring the Company to disclose all material information.
Further, section 256B of the Corporations Act provides that a Company may only reduce its capital if:
-
(a) it is fair and reasonable to the shareholders as a whole;
-
(b) it does not materially prejudice the Company’s ability to pay its creditors (although this paragraph does not apply to a cancellation of a share for no consideration); and
-
(c) it is approved by shareholders in accordance with section 256C of the Corporations Act.
The Directors believe that the capital reduction as proposed is fair and reasonable to Shareholders for the reasons set out in this Explanatory Memorandum. Further, the Directors believe that it is appropriate that the Performance Shares be cancelled in the circumstances.
In accordance with section 256C(2) of the Corporations Act, a selective reduction of capital must be approved by either:
-
(a) a special resolution passed at a general meeting of the Company, with no votes being cast in favour of the resolution by any person who is to receive consideration as part of the reduction, or whose liability to pay amounts unpaid on shares is to be reduced, or by their associates; or
-
(b) a resolution agreed to, at a general meeting, by all ordinary shareholders (i.e. unanimous approval).
The term “no votes being cast” is intended to operate in a similar way to the way in which voting exclusion statements operate in the context of the ASX Listing Rules.
If the reduction of capital involves the cancellation of shares, the reduction must also be approved by a special resolution passed at a meeting of the shareholders whose shares are to be cancelled.
Section 256C(4) of the Corporations Act requires that the Company must include with the Notice a statement setting out all information known to the Company that is material to the decision on how to vote on the Resolutions. However, the Company does not have to disclose information if it would be unreasonable to require the Company to do so because the Company had previously disclosed the information to Shareholders.
The capital reduction will proceed only if all resolutions tabled at both meetings are passed, being:
-
(a) Resolutions 1 and 2 of the above Notice; and
-
(b) Resolutions 1 and 2 of the Notice of Meeting of the Performance Shareholder.
Accordingly:
-
(a) Resolution 1 of the Notice above must be passed by at least 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and entitled to vote on the Resolution;
-
(b) Resolution 2 of the Notice above must be passed by at least 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and entitled to vote on the Resolution; and
6
- (c) Resolutions 1 and 2 of the Notice of Meeting of the Performance Shareholder must be passed by Indigo (which holds 100% of the Performance Shares). Indigo has agreed to pass the resolutions under the terms of the Letter Deed.
If any of:
-
(a) Resolutions 1 or 2 of the above Notice; or
-
(b) Resolutions 1 or 2 of the Notice of Meeting of the Performance Shareholder,
are not passed, the Performance Shares will not be cancelled and Indigo will remain as the holder of the Performance Shares in the Company.
3.3 Summary of and Effect of Proposed Selective Capital Reduction
The overall effect of the selective capital reduction and cancellation of the Performance Shares is as follows:
| Capital Structure before selective reduction of capital and cancellation of Performance Shares |
Ordinary Shares: Listed Options: Unlisted Options: Class A Performance Shares: Class B Performance Shares: 124,673,226 27,443,886 3,850,000 25,000,000 25,000,000 |
|---|---|
| Capital Structure after selective reduction of capital and cancellation of the Performance Shares |
Ordinary Shares: Listed Options: Unlisted Options: 124,673,226 27,443,886 3,850,000 |
The Performance Shares the subject of the selective capital reduction and cancellation do not carry voting rights at general meetings of Shareholders until they are converted into ordinary Shares in accordance with their terms and conditions. Accordingly, if the selective reduction of capital and cancellation of the Performance Shares proceeds, it will not dilute the percentage shareholding of holders of ordinary fully paid shares in the Company, nor affect the voting power of ordinary shareholders.
3.4
Directors’ Recommendation
The Directors believe that the proposed capital reduction and cancellation of the Performance Shares is in the best interests of the Company as the Performance Shares are likely to have a detrimental effect on the share price of the Company and make it more difficult to secure funding and future projects. For this reason, the Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the capital reduction and cancellation.
In considering their recommendation the Directors believe Shareholders should be aware that each of the Directors of the Company, Mr Ian Macliver, Ms Cherie Leeden and Mr Mark Titchener, is a shareholder in Indigo with an individual shareholding of 19% of the issued share capital of Indigo (i.e. a combined holding of 57%).

Class B Performance Shares is equal to 10% of the entire fully diluted share capital of the Company.
-
(d) ( No conversion ) To the extent that Class A Performance Shares have not converted into Select Shares on or before the Expiry Date, then all such unconverted Class A Performance Shares held by each holder ( Class A Holder ) will automatically consolidate into one Class A Performance Share and will then convert into one Select Share.
