How to vote
Voting on all proposed Resolutions at the Meeting will be conducted by poll. Under the Constitution, any poll will be conducted as directed by the Chair
Shareholders can vote by either:
-
attending the Meeting and voting in person or by attorney or, in the case of corporate Shareholders, by appointing a corporate representative to attend and vote; or
-
appointing a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf using the Proxy Form accompanying this Notice and by submitting their Proxy Form online, by mobile, by post or by facsimile.
Voting in person or by attorney
Shareholders, or their attorneys, who plan to attend the Meeting are asked to arrive at the venue 15 minutes prior to the time designated for the Meeting, if possible, so that their holding may be checked against the Company's share register and their attendance recorded. A certified copy of the Power of Attorney, or the original Power of Attorney, must be received by the Company in the same manner, and by the same time as outlined for proxy forms below.
Voting by a corporation
A Shareholder that is a corporation may appoint an individual to act as its representative and vote in person at the Meeting. The appointment must comply with the requirements of section 250D of the Corporations Act. Written proof of the representative’s appointment (including any authority under which it is signed) must be lodged with, or presented to the Company before the Meeting.
Voting by proxy
-
A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies. Each proxy will have the right to vote on a poll and to speak at the Meeting.
-
The appointment of the proxy may specify the proportion or the number of votes that the proxy may exercise. Where more than one proxy is appointed and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the Shareholder's votes each proxy may exercise, the votes will be divided equally among the proxies (i.e. where there are two proxies, each proxy may exercise half of the votes).
-
A proxy need not be a Shareholder. The proxy can be either an individual or a body corporate.
-
If a proxy is not directed how to vote on an item of business, the proxy may generally vote, or abstain from voting, as they think fit. However, where a member of the Key Management Personnel or a Closely Related Party of such a member is appointed as a proxy, the proxy may only vote on Resolutions 1 and 6 if the proxy is the Chairman of the Meeting and the appointment expressly authorises the Chairman to exercise the proxy even if the Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the Key Management Personnel.
-
Should any resolution, other than those specified in this Notice, be proposed at the Meeting, a proxy may vote on that resolution as they think fit.
-
If a proxy is instructed to abstain from voting on an item of business, they are directed not to vote on the Shareholder's behalf on the poll and the Shares that are the subject of the proxy appointment will not be counted in calculating the required majority.
-
A Shareholder who returns their Proxy Form with a direction how to vote, but does not nominate the identity of their proxy, will be taken to have appointed the Chairman of the Meeting as their proxy to vote on their behalf. If a Proxy Form is returned with a direction how to vote, but the nominated proxy (who is not Chairman of the Meeting) does not attend the Meeting or does not vote on the relevant Resolution(s), the Chairman of the Meeting will act in place of the nominated proxy and vote on a poll in accordance with any instructions.
-
Proxy appointments in favour of the Chairman of the Meeting, the secretary or any Director that do not contain a direction how to vote will be used, where possible, to support each of the Resolutions proposed in this Notice, provided they are entitled to cast votes as a proxy under the voting exclusion rules which apply to some of the proposed Resolutions. These rules are explained in this Notice. However, in exceptional circumstances, the Chairman of the Meeting may change his voting intention, in which case an ASX announcement will be made.
-
Proxies must be received by 2pm (WST) on 17 November 2020 . Proxies received after this time will be invalid.

Explanatory Memorandum
This Explanatory Memorandum is intended to provide Shareholders with sufficient information to assess the merits of the Resolutions contained in the accompanying Notice of Annual General Meeting of the Company.
Certain abbreviations and other defined terms are used throughout this Explanatory Memorandum. Defined terms are generally identifiable by the use of an upper case first letter. Details of the definitions and abbreviations are set out in the Glossary to the Explanatory Memorandum.
Financial Reports
The Board is required to lay before the Meeting the consolidated annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2020, together with the Directors' report (including the Remuneration Report) and the Auditor's Report on the financial report. No resolution is required to be moved in respect of this item.
Shareholders will be given a reasonable opportunity at the Meeting to ask questions and to make comments on the reports and on the management of the Company.
The Chairman will also give Shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask the Auditor or the Auditor’s representative questions relevant to: the conduct of the audit; the preparation and content of the independent Audit's Report; the accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of the financial statements; and the independence of the Auditor in relation to the conduct of the audit.
The Chairman will also allow a reasonable opportunity for the Auditor or their representative to answer any written questions submitted to the Auditor under section 250PA of the Corporations Act.
A copy of the Company’s Annual Report is available on the ASX website or at http://www.roxresources.com.au/investors2/annual-reports/.
Resolution 1 – Adoption of Remuneration Report
Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act requires the Company to put to its Shareholders a resolution that the Remuneration Report as disclosed in the Company's 2019 Annual Report be adopted.
The Remuneration Report explains the Board policies in relation to the nature and level of remuneration paid to Directors, sets out remuneration details for each Director and any service agreements and sets out the details of any equity-based compensation.
The Remuneration Report also details the Company’s long term incentive ( LTI ) policy. In accordance with that LTI policy, each year the Board puts to shareholders a proposal to award options to directors. However, this year, the Board has resolved not to make such a proposal and will review the structure of its incentive programs over the next few months.
Shareholders are entitled to vote on the question as to whether the Remuneration Report is to be adopted. However, the vote on Resolution 1 is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. The Chairman will give Shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report at the Meeting.
Under the Corporations Act, if at least 25% of the votes cast are against adoption of the remuneration report at two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put a resolution to the second annual general meeting ( Spill Resolution ), to approve calling a general meeting ( Spill Meeting ). If more than 50% of Shareholders vote in favour of the Spill Resolution, the Company must then convene a Spill Meeting within 90 days of the second annual general meeting. All of the Directors who were in office when the applicable Directors’ Report was approved, other than any Managing Director, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting and will need to stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting if they wish to continue as Directors. Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election as Directors is approved will be the Directors of the Company.
Rox Resources Limited – Notice of Annual General Meeting 2020
5
The remuneration report for the financial year ended 30 June 2019 did not receive a vote of more than 25% against its adoption at the Company’s 2019 annual general meeting held on 26 November 2019. Accordingly, if at least 25% of the votes cast on Resolution 1 are against adoption of the Remuneration Report it will not result in the Company putting a Spill Resolution to Shareholders.
Resolution 2 – Re-election of Dr John Mair as a Director
Pursuant to clause 13.2 of the Constitution, Dr John Mair, being a Director, retires by way of rotation and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election as a Director.
Dr John Mair is an economic geologist with extensive international experience across technical, managerial and corporate fields.
Dr Mair brings a deep understanding of a range of gold deposits types from experience working in Western Australia, New South Wales, Alaska, Yukon, British Columbia amongst other places. He has authored numerous papers in leading scientific journals on the geology of gold deposits.
Dr Mair is the managing director of Greenland Minerals Ltd who is developing the globally significant Kvanefjeld rare earths project in Greenland. He has been integral in the technical development of Kvanefjeld, the corporate evolution of Greenland Minerals Ltd, and the commercial and strategic alignment with international rare earths group Shenghe Resources Holding Co Ltd. Dr Mair has worked closely with the Greenland and Danish governments on matters pertaining to regulation. He has significant experience and connections in global capital markets. In the last there years Dr Mair has not been a director of any other company.

The Board has considered Dr John Mair's independence and considers that he is an independent Director.
The members of the Board (other than Dr John Mair) support the re-election of Dr Mair and recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2. The Board considers that Dr Mair provides an important contribution to the Board, given his professional background and extensive experience in the exploration and mining industry.
Resolution 3 – Ratification of prior issue - Options
Background
Resolution 3 relates to the ratification of the prior issue of 60,000,000 Options on 16 September 2020 comprising:
-
(a) 20,000,000 Options exercisable at $0.10 each on or before 31 December 2023;
-
(b) 20,000,000 Options exercisable at $0.125 each on or before 31 December 2023; and
-
(c) 20,000,000 Options exercisable at $0.15 each on or before 31 December 2023,
( Advisor Options ).
The Advisor Options were issued to a nominee of Canaccord Genuity (Australia) Limited) ( Canaccord ), CG Nominees (Australia) Pty Ltd. The Advisor Options were issued under a letter agreement between the Company and Canaccord dated 25 August 2020 ( Corporate Advisory Mandate ), pursuant to which Canaccord has agreed to provide capital markets consulting advice to the Company. The material terms of the Corporate Advisory Mandate are as follows:
- (a) Role : Canaccord will act as corporate advisor to the Company in connection with its ongoing capital markets strategy requirements.
Rox Resources Limited – Notice of Annual General Meeting 2020

-
(b) Fees : In consideration for its role as corporate advisor, the Company agreed to issue the Advisor Options to Canaccord (or its nominee) and reimburse Canaccord for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Canaccord in connection with the engagement.
-
(c) Termination : The engagement is for a minimum of 12 months, after which the Company may terminate the engagement by giving 30 days' written notice. Canaccord may terminate the engagement at any time.
Listing Rules 7.1, 7.1A and 7.4
Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue, without approval of its shareholders, 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.
Listing Rule 7.1A provides that in addition to issues permitted without prior shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1, an entity that is eligible and obtains shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A may issue or agree to issue during the period for which the approval is valid a number of quoted equity securities which represents 10% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period as adjusted in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1.
Where an eligible entity obtains shareholder approval to increase its placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A then any ordinary securities issued under that additional placement capacity:
-
(a) will not be counted in variable “A” in the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A; and
-
(b) are counted in variable “E”,
until their issue has been ratified under ASX Listing Rule 7.4 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1A) or 12 months has passed since their issue.
As the issue of the Advisor Options the subject of Resolution 3 does not fall within any of the specified exceptions to Listing Rule 7.1 and has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of those securities.
Under Listing Rule 7.4, if a company's shareholders approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made, that issue or agreement to issue equity securities is treated as having been made with Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 (provided that the issue or agreement did not breach Listing Rule 7.1).
By ratifying this previous issue, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1 and, subject to the passing of Resolution 4, its 10% placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1A (as applicable) without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.
Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Advisor Options the subject of Resolution 3.
Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Advisor Options will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1, 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 those securities.
If Resolution 3 is passed, the base figure (i.e. variable “A”) in which the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 will be a higher number which in turn will allow a proportionately higher number of equity securities to be issued by the Company without prior Shareholder approval.
Rox Resources Limited – Notice of Annual General Meeting 2020
7
Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.4
Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 3:
-
(a) the Advisor Options were issued to CG Nominees (Australia) Pty Ltd, who is not a related party of the Company;
-
(b) 60,000,000 Advisor Options were issued pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1;
-
(c) the Advisor Options were issued on the terms and conditions set out in Annexure A;
-
(d) the Advisor Options were issued on 16 September 2020;
-
(e) the Advisor Options were issued for nil cash consideration in satisfaction of capital market consulting advice provided by Canaccord;
-
(f) the purpose of the grant of the Advisor Options was in consideration for ongoing capital markets strategy advice provided by Canaccord. Accordingly, no funds were raised from the issue;
-
(g) the Advisor Options were issued to CG Nominees (Australia) Pty Ltd under the Corporate Advisory Mandate. A summary of the material terms of the Corporate Advisory Mandate are set out above; and
-
(h) a voting exclusion statement is included in Resolution 3 of this Notice.
Resolution 4 – Approval of 10% Placement Capacity
Background
Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limited 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.
Under Listing Rule 7.1A, however, an Eligible Entity (as defined below) can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this limit by an extra 10% to 25%.
An Eligible Entity means an entity which is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and which has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. The Company is an Eligible Entity for these purposes.
Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Capacity must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted Equity Securities. As at the date of this Notice, the Company currently has one class of quoted Equity Securities on issue, being the Shares (ASX Code: IXR).
Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval by way of special resolution for the Company to have the additional 10% capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval ( 10% Placement Capacity ).
Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If Resolution 4 is not 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 4 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.
Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A
(a) Timing of potential issues
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:
Rox Resources Limited – Notice of Annual General Meeting 2020
8
-
(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 to the nature or scale of the Company’s activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of the Company’s main undertaking).
-
(b) Minimum price
Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Capacity must be in an existing quoted class of Equity Securities and be issued at a minimum issue price of 75% of the volume weighted average price for the Company's 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 Company and the recipient of the Equity Securities; or
-
(ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
-
(c)
Use of funds
The Company intends to use the funds raised from the issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for exploration activities, the acquisition of new assets (should suitable assets be found), administration costs and general working capital.
(d) Risk of economic and 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 4 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 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 8 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 10% Placement Capacity.

*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.
Notes : The table above assumes:
-

-

-
(f) 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.

(g) The table shows only the effect of issues of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
-
(h) 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%.
-
(i) The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Capacity, 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
The identity of the persons to whom Equity Securities will be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been determined as at the date of this Notice, but could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company.
The persons to whom Equity Securities will be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined on a case by case basis having regard to market conditions at the time of the proposed issue of Equity Securities, including consideration of matters including, but not limited to:
-
(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 the Company;
-
(iv) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company;

Further details of the issues of Equity Securities under the Previous Approval by the Company during the 12 month period preceding the date of the Meeting are set out in Annexure B.

Resolution 5 – Replacement of Constitution
General
A company may modify or repeal its constitution or a provision of its constitution by special resolution of shareholders.
Resolution 5 is a special resolution which will enable the Company to repeal its existing Constitution and adopt a new constitution ( Proposed Constitution ) which is of the type required for a listed public company limited by shares that has been updated to ensure it reflects the current provisions of the Corporations Act and Listing Rules.
The current Constitution was adopted in 2003. Since then there have been a number of changes to the Corporations Act, Listing Rules, the ASX Settlement Rules and corporate governance principles for listed companies. Accordingly, the Board consider that it is in the best interest of the Company and its Shareholders to update the current Constitution. The Board has determined that it is more appropriate to replace the existing Constitution with the Proposed Constitution rather than to amend a multitude of specific provisions.
The Proposed Constitution is broadly consistent with the provisions of the existing Constitution. Many of the proposed changes are administrative or minor in nature including, without limitation, expressly providing for statutory rights by mirroring these rights in provisions of the Proposed Constitution.
The Directors believe these amendments are not material nor will they have any significant impact on Shareholders. It is not practicable to list all of the changes to the Constitution in detail in this Explanatory Memorandum, however, a summary of the more significant proposed changes is set out below.
A copy of the Proposed Constitution is available for review by Shareholders at the Company’s website (www.roxresources.com.au) and at the office of the Company. A copy of the Proposed Constitution can also be sent to Shareholders upon request to the Company Secretary, Brett Dickson (+61 8 9226 0044). Shareholders are invited to contact the Company if they have any queries or concerns.
Summary of material proposed changes
Restricted securities (clause 27)
The Proposed Constitution complies with the proposed changes to Listing Rule 15.12 which came into effect on 1 December 2019. Under these change, ASX requires certain more significant holders of restricted securities and their controllers (such as related parties, promoters, substantial holders, service providers and their associates) to execute a formal escrow agreement in the form Appendix 9A. However, for less significant holdings (such as non-related parties and non-promoters), ASX instead permits the entity to issue restriction notices to holders of restricted securities in the form of a new Appendix 9C advising them of the restriction rather than requiring signed restriction agreements.
Directors (clause 13)
The provisions which deal with the retirement of Directors will be updated to more closely align with the Listing Rules. The requirement for one third of the Directors (other than the Managing Director) to retire from office at each annual general meeting will be removed, as this is not required by law. Rather, Listing Rule 14.4 only requires that a director
Rox Resources Limited – Notice of Annual General Meeting 2020
11
must not hold office without re-election past the third annual general meeting following their appointment, or three years (whichever is longer).
Fee for registration of transfers (clause 5.1(c))
Clause 5.1(c) of the Proposed Constitution provides that no fee may be changes by the Company on the transfer of any Shares, except to the extent that the fee is permitted by the Listing Rules. On 24 January 2011, ASX amended Listing Rule 8.14 with the effect that the Company may now charge a “reasonable fee” for registering paper-based transfers, sometimes referred to “off-market transfers”. The fee is intended to represent the cost incurred by the Company in upgrading its fraud detection practices specific to off-market transfers. Before charging any fee, the Company is required to notify ASX of the fee to be charged and provide sufficient information to enable ASX to assess the reasonableness of the proposed amount.
Sale of Small Holdings of Shares (clause 10)
Clause 10 of the Proposed Constitution sets out the procedures by which the Company may sell a parcel of Shares that is less than a Marketable Parcel ( Small Holding ). A "Marketable Parcel" is a parcel of Shares that is not less than $500 based on the closing price of Shares on ASX at the relevant time.
The procedure set out in the Proposed Constitution is in line with the requirements for dealing with Small Holdings outlined in the Corporations Act such that where the Company elects to undertake a sale of Small Holdings, the Company is only required to give one notice to holders of a Small Holding to elect to retain their shareholding before the Small Holding can be dealt with by the Company, saving time and administrative costs incurred by otherwise having to send out additional notices.
Direct voting (clause 12.16)
The Proposed Constitution includes a new provision which allows Shareholders to exercise their voting rights through direct voting (in addition to exercising their existing rights to appoint a proxy). The Directors may determine that, at any general meeting or class meeting, a Shareholder who is entitled to attend and vote on a resolution at that meeting is entitled to vote by direct vote in respect of that resolution. This inclusion is in line with modern listed company standards and will enable Shareholders to cast their vote without being required to physically attend the meeting, should the directors choose it is necessary. If such a determination is made by the Directors, the notice of meeting will include information on the application of direct voting.
Use of technology at general meetings (clause 12.3)
The Proposed Constitution includes provisions which allow the uses of technology for general meetings. This will allow for electronic meetings to be held in the future if required.
Dividends, reserves and distributions (clause 20)
Section 254T of the Corporations Act was amended effective 28 June 2010.
There is now a three-tiered test that a company will need to satisfy before paying a dividend replacing the previous test that dividends may only be paid out of profits. The amended requirements provide that a company must not a pay a dividend unless:
-
the company’s assets exceed its liabilities immediately before the dividend is declared and the excess is sufficient for the payment of the dividend;
-
the payment of the dividend is fair and reasonable to the company’s shareholders as a whole; and
-
the payment of the dividend does not materially prejudice the company’s ability to pay its creditors.
The existing Constitution reflects the former profits test and restricts the dividends to be paid only out of the profits of the Company. The Proposed Constitution is updated to reflect the new requirements of the Corporations Act. The Directors consider it appropriate to update the Constitution for this amendment to allow more flexibility in the payment of dividends in the future should the Company be in a position to pay dividends.

Proportional takeover approval provisions (clause 11)
A proportional takeover bid is a takeover bid where the offer made to each shareholder is only for a proportion of that shareholder’s shares.
Pursuant to section 648G of the Corporations Act, the Company has included in the Proposed Constitution a provision whereby a proportional takeover bid for Shares may only proceed after the bid has been approved by a meeting of Shareholders held in accordance with the terms set out in the Corporations Act.
This clause of the Proposed Constitution will cease to have effect on the third anniversary of the date of the adoption of last renewal of the clause.
Information required by section 648G of the Corporations Act
(a) Effect of proposed proportional takeover provisions
Where offers have been made under a proportional off-market bid in respect of a class of securities in a company, the registration of a transfer giving effect to a contract resulting from the acceptance of an offer made under such a proportional off-market bid is prohibited unless and until a resolution to approve the proportional off-market bid is passed.
(b) Reasons for proportional takeover provisions
A proportional takeover bid may result in control of the Company changing without Shareholders having the opportunity to dispose of all their Shares. By making a partial bid, a bidder can obtain practical control of the Company by acquiring less than a majority interest. Shareholders are exposed to the risk of being left as a minority in the Company and the risk of the bidder being able to acquire control of the Company without payment of an adequate control premium. These amended provisions allow Shareholders to decide whether a proportional takeover bid is acceptable in principle, and assist in ensuring that any partial bid is appropriately priced.
(c) Knowledge of any acquisition proposals
As at the date of this Notice, no Director is aware of any proposal by any person to acquire, or to increase the extent of, a substantial interest in the Company.
Potential advantages and disadvantages of proportional takeover provisions
The Directors consider that the proportional takeover provisions have no potential advantages or disadvantages for them and that they remain free to make a recommendation on whether an offer under a proportional takeover bid should be accepted.
The potential advantages of the proportional takeover provisions for Shareholders include:
-
the right to decide by majority vote whether an offer under a proportional takeover bid should proceed;
-
assisting in preventing Shareholders from being locked in as a minority;
-
increasing the bargaining power of Shareholders which may assist in ensuring that any proportional takeover bid is adequately priced; and
-
each individual Shareholder may better assess the likely outcome of the proportional takeover bid by knowing the view of the majority of Shareholders which may assist in deciding whether to accept or reject an offer under the takeover bid.
The potential disadvantages of the proportional takeover provisions for Shareholders include:
-
proportional takeover bids may be discouraged;
-
lost opportunity to sell a portion of their Shares at a premium; and
Rox Resources Limited – Notice of Annual General Meeting 2020
13
- the likelihood of a proportional takeover bid succeeding may be reduced.
Recommendation of the Board
The Directors do not believe the potential disadvantages outweigh the potential advantages of adopting the proportional takeover provisions and as a result consider that the proportional takeover provision in the Proposed Constitution is in the interest of Shareholders and unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5.
Resolution 6 – Non-Executive Directors' Remuneration
General
The Constitution provides that the non-executive Directors may be collectively paid as remuneration for their services a fixed sum not exceeding the aggregate maximum sum per annum from time to time determined by the Company in general meeting. The current aggregate maximum sum per annum is $150,000, which is unchanged since the Company first became listed on the ASX in 2004.
In accordance with clause 13.8 of the Constitution and Listing Rule 10.17, Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval to increase the maximum aggregate amount of director's fees per annum that may be paid by the Company to its nonexecutive Directors ( Fee Pool ) by $250,000 from $150,000 per annum to $400,000 per annum.
Under the Listing Rules, the term “directors’ fees” includes committee fees, superannuation contributions and fees which a director sacrifices for other benefits, but does not include reimbursement of genuine out-of-pocket expenses, genuine “special exertion” fees or securities issued to non-executive Directors with approval of Shareholders in accordance with the Listing Rules.
Details of the remuneration of non-executive Directors for the year ended 30 June 2020 is detailed in the Remuneration Report.
The Company does not intend to fully utilise the maximum fee pool in the immediate future. The proportion remaining unused will provide the Company with the ability to attract and retain high quality directors, to make any appropriate increases to the size of the Board and to increase fees in the future in line with market conditions.
The Directors are seeking Shareholder approval to increase the Fee Pool for the following reasons:
-
(a) the current Fee Pool is low by market standards and was set when the Company first listed in 2004;
-
(b) to ensure that the Company maintains the ability to pay non-executive Directors remuneration at levels commensurate with market rates and as necessary to attract and retain directors of the highest calibre; and
-
(c) to allow for some growth in non-executive Directors’ remuneration in the future to reflect market competitiveness for non-executive directors with the skills and experience appropriate for the Company’s business.
Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A
If Resolution 6 is passed the maximum aggregate sum of directors’ fees that may be paid to all of the Company’s nonexecutive Directors will be increased to $400,000 per annum.
If Resolution 6 is not passed, the maximum aggregate sum of directors’ fees that may be paid to all of the Company’s non-executive Directors will remain at $150,000 per annum.
Specific information required by Listing Rule 10.17
The following information is provided to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 6 for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.17:
-
(a) the amount of the increase is $250,000;
-
(b) subject to the passing of this Resolution 6, the Fee Pool will be $400,000;
Rox Resources Limited – Notice of Annual General Meeting 2020

- (c) in the past 3 years, the Company has issued non-executive Directors an aggregate of nil Shares and 93,000,000 Options with prior Shareholder approval under Listing Rules 10.11 and 10.14, as set out in the table below:
