EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Resolution 1: Ratification of Prior Issue of Shares

Background

On 17 March 2021, the Company announced a Placement that would be completed in two tranches to raise $3.6m before costs at an issue price 0f $0.022 (2.2 cents) per share (Capital Raising). Tranche one was the issue of 90,909,090 fully paid ordinary shares and tranche two which is subject to shareholder approval would comprise of the issue of 72,727,274 fully paid ordinary shares. The Capital Raising would be utilised to fund the upcoming Tin drilling programme and fund working capital as announced on 17 March 2021.

Taylor Collision Limited was appointed as Lead Manager and as such would be paid a Management Fee of 2.0% of the gross proceeds raised under the Placement and a Selling Fee of 4.0% of the gross proceeds raised under the Placement.

The Company is therefore seeking shareholder approval to ratify the issue on 24 March 2021 of 90,909,090 fully paid ordinary shares (Placement).

The Shares were issued without shareholder approval under the Company's 15% placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

ASX Listing Rules

Under ASX Listing Rule 7.4 an issue of securities will be treated as having been made with the approval of shareholders for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 if the issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1 at the time and shareholders subsequently approve it. As the issue of Shares was within the Company's ASX Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity and was not previously approved by Shareholders, the Company now seeks Shareholder ratification of the issue pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4.

If Resolution 1 is approved, the prior issue of 90,909,090 fully paid ordinary Shares may be treated by the Company as having been made with Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. The Company will therefore be able to issue additional equity securities counting towards the 15% threshold for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

ASX Listing Rule Disclosure Requirements

Listing Rule 7.5 requires that the following information be provided to shareholders for the purpose of obtaining shareholder approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4:

  • a) the Shares were issued to new and existing shareholders identified as professional and sophisticated investors by the Lead Manager Taylor Collison Limited;
  • b) the total number of fully paid ordinary shares in the Company that were issued is 90,909,090**;**
  • c) the Shares were issued at an issue price of $0.022 (2.2 cents) per share;
  • d) the Shares were issued on 24 March 2021**;**
  • e) Funds raised from the Placement will be used to fund exploration on the Company's Tin drilling programme and fund working capital as announced on 17 March 2021.
  • f) the Shares allotted and issued rank pari pasu with all existing securities of their class; and
  • g) refer to note 6 for voting exclusions on this Resolution.

Board Recommendation

The Board recommends that shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.

Voting Exclusions

Refer to note 6 for voting exclusions on this Resolution.

Resolution 2: Approval of Issue of Shares

Background

On 17 March 2021, the Company announced a Placement that would be completed in two tranches to raise $3.6m before costs at an issue price 0f $0.022 (2.2 cents) per share (Capital Raising). Tranche one was the issue of 90,909,090 fully paid ordinary shares and tranche two which is subject to shareholder approval would comprise of the issue of 72,727,274 fully paid ordinary shares. The Capital Raising would be utilised to fund the upcoming Tin drilling programme and fund working capital as announced on 17 March 2021.

Taylor Collision Limited was appointed as Lead Manager and as such would be paid a Management Fee of 2.0% of the gross proceeds raised under the Placement and a Selling Fee of 4.0% of the gross proceeds raised under the Placement.

The Company is seeking shareholder approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 to allot and issue 72,727,274 fully paid ordinary shares in the Company at an issue price of $0.022 (2.2 cents) per Share to existing and new professional and sophisticated investors under Tranche two of the Capital Raising.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, without shareholder approval, issue or agree to issue more 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. As the issue of 72,727,274 fully paid ordinary shares, without shareholder approval, in conjunction with the Tranche one of the Placement will exceed that 15% limit, the Company proposes Resolution 2 to seek shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 2 is passed, the Company will issue the 72,727,274 fully paid ordinary shares without using any of its placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1, retain the flexibility to make future issues of equity securities up to the 15% limit and raise approximately $1,600,000 before issue costs.

If Resolution 2 is not passed, the Company will not be able to issue the 72,727,274 Shares under the Placement.

ASX Listing Rule Disclosure Requirements

The following information is provided in relation Resolution 2, as required by ASX Listing Rule 7.3:

  • a) fully paid ordinary shares will be issued to existing and new professional and sophisticated investors who are largely investors introduced by the Lead Manager Taylor Collison Limited;
  • b) the total number of fully paid ordinary shares proposed to be issued will be 72,727,274**;**
  • c) the issue price of the Shares will be $0.022 (2.2 cents) per share**;**
  • d) the date by which the Company will issue the securities will be no later than three (3) months after the date of this Meeting (or such later date as may be approved by ASX). The Company however expects to issue the shares on or around 6 May 2021;
  • e) Funds raised from the Placement will be used to fund exploration on the Company's Tin drilling programme and fund working capital as announced on 17 March 2021.
  • f) the Shares allotted and issued rank pari pasu with all existing securities of their class; and
  • g) refer to note 6 for voting exclusions on this Resolution.

Board Recommendation

The Board recommends that shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

Voting Exclusions

Refer to note 6 for voting exclusions on this Resolution.
