Proxies

Please note that:

  • a Shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies. Each proxy will have the right to vote on a poll and also speak at the Meeting;

  • a proxy need not be a member of the Company;

  • a Shareholder may appoint a body corporate or an individual as its proxy;

  • a body corporate appointed as a Shareholder’s proxy may appoint an individual as its representative to exercise any of the powers that the body may exercise as the Shareholder’s proxy; and

The enclosed Proxy Form provides further details on appointing proxies and lodging Proxy Forms. If a Shareholder appoints a body corporate as its proxy and the body corporate wishes to appoint an individual as its representative, the body corporate should provide that person with a certificate or letter executed in accordance with the Corporations Act authorising him or her to act as that company’s representative. The authority may be sent to the Company or its share registry in advance of the Annual General Meeting or handed in at the Annual General Meeting when registering as a corporate representative.

Members of the Key Management Personnel will not be able to vote as proxy on Resolution 1 unless the Shareholder directs them how to vote or, in the case of the Chair, unless the Shareholder expressly authorises him to do so.

If a Shareholder intends to appoint the Chair as their proxy for Resolution 1, Shareholders can direct the Chair how to vote by marking one of the boxes for Resolution 1 (for example, if the Shareholder wishes to vote ‘for’, ‘against’ or to ‘abstain’ from voting). If the Shareholder does not direct the Chair how to vote, then by submitting the Proxy Form, the

7

Shareholder will be expressly authorising the Chair to exercise the proxy in respect of Resolution 1 even though it is connected to the remuneration of members of the Key Management Personnel.

To vote by proxy, please complete and sign the enclosed Proxy Form. Please follow the instructions detailed on the Proxy Form to send it to the Company, so that it is received by no later than 8 am (WST) on 18 November 2020. Proxy Forms received later than this time will be invalid.

Voting intentions of the Chair

The Chair intends to vote all available proxies in favour of all Resolutions.

1. REGULATORY INFORMATION

1.1 Annual Report

The Annual Report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2020, which includes the Financial Report, the Directors’ Report, the Remuneration Report and the Auditor’s Report, will be laid before the Annual General Meeting.

There is no requirement for Shareholders to approve the Annual Report. However, the Chair will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders to ask questions or make comments about the Annual Report and the management of the Company.

A representative of the Company’s auditor, BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd, is anticipated to be in attendance to respond to any questions raised of the auditor or on the Auditor’s Report in accordance with section 250T of the Corporations Act.

2. Resolution 1: Approval of Remuneration Report

2.1 General

Section 249L(2) of the Corporations Act requires a company to inform Shareholders that a resolution on the Remuneration Report will be put at the Annual General Meeting. Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act requires a resolution that the Remuneration Report adopted be put to a vote. Resolution 1 seeks this approval.

In accordance with section 250R(3) of the Corporations Act, Shareholders should note that Resolution 1 is an “advisory only” resolution which does not bind the Directors or the Company. However, the Directors take the discussion at the Meeting and the outcome of the vote into account when considering the Company’s remuneration practices.

Following consideration of the Remuneration Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2020, the Chair, in accordance with section 250SA of the Corporations Act, will give Shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report.

2.2 Voting Consequences

If at least 25% of the votes cast on a resolution for the adoption of a Remuneration Report are voted against at two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders at the second annual general meeting a resolution proposing that another general meeting be held within 90 days, at which all of the Company’s Directors (other than the Managing Director (or person acting in that capacity)) would go up for re-election.

2.3 Previous Voting Results

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, a Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Annual General Meeting.

The Directors encourage all Shareholders to vote on Resolution 1.

3. Resolution 2: Re-Election of Director – Trevor Bradley

3.1 Background

In accordance with clauses 11.1.3 and 11.1.4 of the Constitution, at every annual general meeting, one third of the Directors excluding the Managing Director must retire from office and are eligible for re-election. Under

9

clause 11.1.5 of the Constitution, the Directors to retire are to be those who have been longest in office since their last election. Among the Directors, Trevor Bradley has been longest in office since his last election.

Listing Rule 14.4 states that no director is entitled to hold office without re-election past the third annual general meeting following the director’s appointment or three years, whichever is longer. Trevor Bradley retires by rotation at this Annual General Meeting and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election.

3.2 Qualifications

A summary of Mr Bradley’s background and experience is set out below.

Mr Bradley is a geologist with over thirty years’ experience in key technical, operational, and managerial aspects of exploration, development, and operation of both underground and open pit mineral projects in Australia, South East Asia, Central Asia and the Caribbean. His Qualifications include an Applied Science Degree with Honors (Geology) from UTS Sydney, a Masters of Law Degree with Distinction (Natural Resource Law and Policy) from the Centre for Energy, Petroleum, Mineral Law and Policy (CEPMLP) at the University of Dundee in the UK and a Graduate Diploma (Geographic Information Science) from Curtin University, Perth W.A.

Mr Bradley also specialises in assisting clients in his capacity as an independent expert in court matters, mediation and arbitration proceedings.

3.3 Directors Recommendation

Other than Mr Trevor Bradley who does not make any recommendation in relation to his own re-election, the Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

4. Resolution 3: Approval of 10% Placement Facility

4.1 Background

Resolution 3 is a special resolution which seeks Shareholders’ approval for the issue of Equity Securities totalling up to 10% of the issued capital of the Company under and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A.

As Resolution 3 is a special resolution, at least 75% of the votes cast on Resolution 3 must be cast in favour of the Resolution in order for it to be passed.

If this Resolution is 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 this Resolution 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.

4.2 Listing Rule 7.1A

Listing Rule 7.1A enables eligible entities to issue Equity Securities totalling up to 10% of its issued share capital through placements over a 12-month period after the entity’s annual general meeting ( 10% Placement Facility ). An eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less.

The Company is an eligible entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of approximately $2.8 Million as at the date of this notice.

10

The 10% Placement Facility is in addition to the Company's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1. The actual number of Equity Securities that the Company will have the capacity to issue under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated at the date of issue of the Equity Securities in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to formula below).

Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that eligible entities which have obtained shareholder approval at an annual general meeting under Listing Rule 7.1A may issue or agree to issue, during the 12-month period after the date of the annual general meeting, a number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:

(A x D) – E

  • A is the number of fully paid shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

  • (a) plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;

  • (b) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the 12 months;

  • (c) plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months with approval of holders of shares under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid shares under the entity's 15% placement capacity without shareholder approval;

  • (d) less the number of fully paid shares cancelled in the 12 months.

Note: ‘A’ has the same meaning as in Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating an entity's 15% placement capacity.

  • D

  • is 10%.

  • E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of the issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.

Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility must be in the same class as an existing quoted class of Equity Securities of the Company. As at the date of this Notice, the only quoted Equity Securities that the Company has on issue are its Shares.

The issue price of Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A must be not less than 75% of the VWAP of Equity Securities in the same class calculated over the 15 Trading Days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or

  • if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 Trading Days of the date in the paragraph above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under Listing Rule 7.1A is valid from the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained and expires on the earlier to occur of:

  • the date that is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained; and

  • the date of the approval by shareholders of a transaction under Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking) ( 10% Placement Period ).

Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A

11

For the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3A, the following information is provided to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 3:

(a) Minimum price at which the securities may be issued

The Equity Securities will be issued at an issue price of not less than 75% of the VWAP for the Company's Equity Securities over the 15 Trading Days 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 Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

(b) Risk of economic and voting dilution

If Resolution 3 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility, the existing Shareholders' voting power in the Company will be diluted as shown in the table below. There is a risk that:

  • (i) the market price for the Company's Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than on the date of the Annual General Meeting; and

  • (ii) the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for the Company's Equity Securities on the issue date or the Equity Securities are issued as part of consideration for the acquisition of a new asset,

which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the Equity Securities.

The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the number of ordinary securities for variable ‘A’ calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2.

The table also shows:

  • (i) two examples where variable ‘A’ has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable ‘A’ is based on the number of ordinary securities the Company has on issue. The number of ordinary securities on issue may increase as a result of issues of ordinary securities that do not require Shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or future specific placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future general meeting; and

  • (ii) two examples where the issue price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.

Notes:

  1. Assumes the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility. 2. 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%.

  2. 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 Facility, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Annual General Meeting.

  3. 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.

  4. The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares.

  5. The market price used is $0.014, being the closing price of Shares on 9 October 2020.

(c)

Date by which the securities may be issued

4.3 Directors’ recommendations

The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.

5. Resolutions 4 to 6: Issue of Options to Related Parties

5.1 Introduction

The Company proposes to issue 16,000,000 Options to the Company’s Directors for no cash consideration on the terms and conditions set out in Annexure A.

The proposed issue of Options requires Shareholder approval under both the Chapter 2E (section 208) of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.11.

If approval is given under Listing Rule 10.11, Shareholder approval is not required under Listing Rule 7.1. Shareholder approval of the Issue of the Options to Related Parties means that these issues will not reduce the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

5.2 Chapter 2E of Corporations Act

Section 208 of the Corporations Act provides that for a public company to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company must:

  • (a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in Sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and

  • (b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval, unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in Sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.

The issue of Options to a Director requires the Company to obtain Shareholder approval because the Options constitute giving a financial benefit and as Directors, Justin Virgin, Trevor Bradley and Johannes Lin are related parties of the Company.

It is the view of the Directors that the exceptions set out in Sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act do not apply in the current circumstances.

5.3

Section 219 of the Corporations Act

In accordance with Section 219 of the Corporations Act, the following information is provided to Shareholders to allow them to assess the proposed issue of Options to Justin Virgin.

  • (a) The related party to whom the financial benefit will be given

Justin Virgin, Trevor Bradley and Johannes Lin who are related party by virtue of being directors of the Company.

  • (b) The nature of the financial benefits

  • 8,000,000 Options to Justin Virgin.

14

4,000,000 Options to Trevor Bradley.

4,000,000 Options to Johannes Lin.

The terms of the Options are set out in Annexure A.

(c) Director’s recommendation and reason

The Directors, who do not have a material personal interest in the outcome of the resolution, recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the resolution for the following reasons:

  • (i) the Options are considered by the Directors to provide a cost effective means of remunerating the Directors and aligning Directors interest with the interests of other security holders without depleting the cash reserve of the Company; and

  • (ii) the number and terms of options to be issued are considered to be in line with the number issued to directors of similar companies.

(d) Director ‘s interest in the outcome of the resolution

The Directors, other than Justin Virgin, do not have a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 4. Justin Virgin, who stands to gain personally from the issue of the Options, declines to make any recommendation in relation to shareholders’ consideration of resolution 4.

The Directors, other than Trevor Bradley, do not have a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 5. Trevor Bradley, who stands to gain personally from the issue of the Options, declines to make any recommendation in relation to shareholders’ consideration of resolution 5.

The Directors, other than Johannes Lin, do not have a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 6. Johannes Lin, who stands to gain personally from the issue of the Options, declines to make any recommendation in relation to shareholders’ consideration of resolution 6.

(e) Value attributed to the proposed issue of Director Options

The value of the Options and the pricing methodology is set out in Annexure B.

(f) Disclosure of a relevant director’s total remuneration package

The total annual remuneration paid to Justin Virgin for the 2020 financial year was $167,644 (a total of $156,400 in cash and $11,244 in equity) inclusive of superannuation entitlements. If the Options are issued, the total remuneration package of Justin Virgin will increase to $260,296 for the current year, reflecting $186,150 in cash inclusive of superannuation entitlements and $75,146 in equity (based on a Black Scholes valuation of the Options).

The total annual remuneration paid Trevor Bradley for the 2020 financial year was $38,472 (a total of $32,850 in cash and $5,622 in equity) inclusive of superannuation entitlements. If the Options are issued, the total remuneration package of Trevor Bradley will increase to $79,548 for the current year, reflecting $41,975 in cash inclusive of superannuation entitlements and $37,573 in equity (based on a Black Scholes valuation of the Options).

The total annual remuneration paid Johannes Lin for the 2020 financial year was $32,850 (a total of $32,850 in cash and nil in equity) inclusive of superannuation entitlements. If the Options are issued, the total remuneration package of Johannes Lin will increase to $70,423 for the current year, reflecting $41,975 in cash inclusive of superannuation entitlements and $37,573 in equity (based on a Black Scholes valuation of the Options).

(g) Related Party’s existing interest in the Company

Justin Virgin holds 23,794,686 Shares and 20,000,000 options to acquire shares in the Company.

Trevor Bradley holds nil Shares and 9,000,000 options to acquire shares in the Company.

15

Johannes Lin holds 43,862,771 Shares and 2,000,000 options to acquire shares in the Company.

(h) Dilution effect if the transaction on existing members’ interests

The Company’s issued share capital will not change as a result of the issue of the Options to the Related Parties.

If the Options granted to the Related Parties are exercised, a total of 16,000,000 Shares would be issued. This will increase the number of Shares on issue from 723,161,009 to 739,161,009 (assuming no other Shares issued or options exercised) with the effect that the shareholding of existing Shares would be diluted by an aggregate of approximately 2.16%.

5.4 Listing Rule 10.11

Resolution 6 seeks approval for the issue of 4,000,000 Options to the Director (and/or his nominee) for the purpose of satisfying the requirements of Listing Rule 10.11.

6. Resolution 7: Ratification of Prior Issue of Shares Smokebush Farm-In Agreement

6.1 Background

The Company announced on 2 December 2019 that it had entered into a farm in agreement for the Smokebush Gold Exploration Project located within the Yalgoo Mineral field of Western Australia. Under the terms of the farm-in agreement:

  • the Company has the right to earn 80% of the project by committing to $250,000 AUD expenditure over 2 years;

  • the Company has issued the vendor 5,000,000 fully paid ordinary share in Terrain Minerals Limited (subject to 12-month escrow) ( Consideration Shares );

  • future Payments of up to $500,000 in cash or shares based on milestones ( Future Considerations );

  • vendors 20% free carry until completion of feasibility study; and

  • the vendor’s 20% free carried interest will convert to a 1% NSR royalty if the vendor decides not to contribute. Terrain has first right of refusal to purchase the 20%.

Future Considerations

First Contingent Payment

  • A. Upon Terrain defining an Indicated Resource (as that term is defined in the JORC Code) of gold grading at not less than 2 grams (Applicable Resources) per tonne within the Tenements, Terrain will, at its election:

  • pay Watts-Butler the sum of $1.00 for each ounce of gold contained within the Applicable Resource to a maximum of $200,000; or

  • issue to Watts-Butler Shares to the value of $1.00 for each ounce of gold contained within the Applicable Resource to a maximum value of Shares of $200,000; or

  • pay and issue to Watts-Butler any combination of cash and Shares to the value of $1.00 for each ounce of gold contained within the Applicable Resource to a maximum of value of $200,000.

17

  • B. If Terrain defines more than one Applicable Resource within the Tenements, it must make the payments described in clause A for each Applicable Resource, up to an aggregate maximum payment or issue to the value of $200,000.

Second Contingent Payment

  • A. Upon Terrain making a decision to commence mining of a gold resource within the Tenements (Decision to Mine) Terrain will, at its election:

  • pay Watts-Butler $1.50 per ounce of gold which is described in the mine plan as recoverable gold to a maximum of $300,000; or

  • issue to Watts-Butler Shares to the value of $1.50 for each ounce of gold which is described in the mine plan as recoverable gold to a maximum value of Shares of $300,000; or

  • pay and issue to Watts-Butler any combination of cash and Shares to the value of $1.50 for each ounce of gold which is described in the mine plan as recoverable gold to a maximum of value of $300,000.

  • B. If Terrain makes more than one Decision to Mine within the Tenements, it must make the payments described in clause A with respect to each Decision to Mine, up to an aggregate maximum payment or issue to the value of $300,000.

Valuation of Shares

All Shares issued in accordance with this clause must be issued based on a volume weighted average price during the 5 trading days preceding the date Terrain notifies Watts-Butler that it has achieved the milestone giving rise to the issue of the Shares.

On 20 December 2019, the Company issued 5,000,000 Shares to the vendor of the Smokebush Gold Exploration Project using its placement capacity under Listing Rules 7.1.

The Company is seeking Shareholder approval to ratify the prior issue of 5,000,000 Consideration Shares under the Smokebush Farm-in Agreement to the vendors on in accordance with Listing Rule 7.4.

6.2 Listing Rule 7.4

Listing Rule 7.1 provides that, subject to certain exceptions, prior approval of shareholders is required for an issue of securities by a company if those securities, when aggregated with the securities issued by the company during the previous 12 months (without approval and which were not subject to an exception), exceed 15% of the number of shares on issue at the commencement of that 12-month period.

Listing Rule 7.4 provides that where a company ratifies a prior issue of securities, the issue will be treated as having been made with approval for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.1, thereby replenishing the Company’s 15% capacity and enabling it to issue further securities up to that limit.

Resolution 7 proposes the ratification of the issue of 5,000,000 Shares for the purpose of satisfying the requirements of Listing Rule 7.4. If Resolution 7 is approved, the Shares will not be included in the Company’s 15% calculation for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1. If Resolution 7 is not passed, the Consideration Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in 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 the Consideration Shares.

As required by Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 7.

  • (a) Number of securities issued

5,000,000 Shares.

  • (b) Price at which the securities were issued

The Consideration Shares were issued for nil cash consideration.

18

(c) Terms of the securities

The Consideration Shares are subject to 12-month escrow from the date of issue, being 20 December 2019, and otherwise rank equally with all other issued share capital of the Company.

(d) Name of the persons to whom the entity will issue the securities or the basis on which those persons were determined

In accordance with paragraph 7.4 of ASX Guidance Note 21, the Company confirms that the Shares were issued to the vendors of the Smokebush Gold Exploration Project, none of whom were related parties or the Company. In addition, none of the recipients were issued more than 1% of the issued capital of the Company.

(e) Intended use of the funds raised

No funds were raised from the issue of the Consideration Shares as the Consideration Shares were issued as part consideration of the farm-in agreement for the Smokebush Gold Exploration Project as set out in Section 6.1.

6.3 Directors’ recommendations

The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 7.

7. Resolution 8 – Amendment of Constitution

7.1 General

The Company is currently governed by its existing constitution which it has had in place since incorporation. Under section 136(2) of the Corporations Act, a company can modify its constitution or a provision of its constitution by special resolution. Accordingly, the Company seeks Shareholders approval to amend its Constitution by a special resolution of Shareholders as set out below.

A copy of the amended Constitution is available for review by Shareholders at the Company’s website and at the office of the Company. Shareholders are invited to contact the Company if they have any queries or concerns.

7.2 Summary of material proposed changes

Restricted Securities (clause 3.9)

Changes to the Listing Rules commenced on 1 December 2019 which require a listed entity’s constitution to contains certain provisions regarding Restricted Securities if the entity has any Restricted Securities on issue. Although the Company does not presently have any Restricted Securities on issue and does not have any present intentions to undertake a transaction which would result in the issue of Restricted Securities, the Board considers it prudent to take this opportunity to update the Constitution to ensure it complies with the new requirements.

With effect from 1 December 2019, ASX applies a two-tier escrow regime where ASX can require certain more significant holders of Restricted Securitise and their controllers to execute a formal escrow agreement in the form of an Appendix 9A of the Listing Rules. However, for less significant holdings, ASX will instead permit entities to rely on a provision in their constitution imposing appropriate escrow restrictions on the holders of restricted securities and to give a notice to the holders of Restricted Securities in the form to set out in an appendix to the Listing Rules, advising them of those restrictions.

The amendment to the Constitution is required to ensure compliance with the Listing Rules.

19

Minimum Shareholding (clause 4)

Clause 4 of the Constitution outlines how the Company can manage shareholdings which represent an “unmarketable parcel” of shares, being a shareholding that is less than $500 based on the closing price of the Company’s Shares on ASX as at the relevant time.

The amended Constitution is in line with the requirements for dealing with “unmarketable parcels” outlined in the Corporations Act such that where the Company elects to undertake a sale of unmarketable parcels, the Company is only required to give one notice to holders of an unmarketable parcel to elect to retain their shareholding before the unmarketable parcel can be dealt with by the Company, saving time and administrative costs incurred by otherwise having to send out additional notices.

Clause 4 of the Proposed Constitution continues to outline in detail the process that the Company must follow for dealing with unmarketable parcels.

Fee for registration of off market transfers (clause 7.2.1.4)

On 24 January 2011, ASX amended ASX 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”.

Clause 7.2.1.4 of the amended Constitution is being made to enable the Company to charge a reasonable fee when it is required to register off-market transfers from Shareholders. 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.

Dividends (clause 18)

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:

(a) the company’s assets exceed its liabilities immediately before the dividend is declared and the excess is sufficient for the payment of the dividend;

  • (b) the payment of the dividend is fair and reasonable to the company’s shareholders as a whole; and

  • (c) 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.

Partial (proportional) takeover provisions (new clause 28)

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.

20

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 of Meeting, no Director is aware of any proposal by any person to acquire, or to increase the extent of, a substantial interest in the Company.

(d) 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:

  • (i) the right to decide by majority vote whether an offer under a proportional takeover bid should proceed;

  • (ii) assisting in preventing Shareholders from being locked in as a minority;

  • (iii) increasing the bargaining power of Shareholders which may assist in ensuring that any proportional takeover bid is adequately priced; and

  • (iv) 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 the likelihood of a proportional takeover bid succeeding may be reduced.

7.3 Directors’ Recommendation

The Directors do not believe the potential disadvantages outweigh the potential advantages of adopting the proposed amendments to the Constitution including the proportional takeover provisions and as a result consider that the proposed amendments to the Constitution are in the interest of Shareholders and unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 8.

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.
