3.4 Details of Substantial Holders

Based on publicly available information as at the date of this Prospectus, those persons which (together with their associates) have a relevant interest in 5% or more of the Shares on issue are set out below:

Shareholder Shares %
Deutsche Balaton and Associates 138,116,782 12.28
V. M. Salgaocar & Bro. (Singapore) Pte. Ltd 110,692,082 9.84
Warren William and Marilyn Helena Brown 84,000,000 7.47
Aosu Investment & Development Co Pty Ltd and Associates 60,508,643 5.38

In the event all Entitlements are accepted there will be no change to the substantial holders on completion of the Offer.

3.5

Underwriting

The Offer is not underwritten.

3.6

Effect on Control

Based on the current shareholding and Entitlements of Shareholders (including substantial Shareholders) as at the date of this Prospectus, regardless of the amount raised under the Offer, no Shareholder will increase their holding, to an amount in excess of 19.9% through applying for their Entitlements.

Further as set out in Section 4.6, on the basis of the allocation policy, no person will acquire, through participation in the Shortfall Offer, a holding of Shares of, or increase their holding to, an amount in excess of 19.9% of all the Shares on issue on completion of the Offer.

Further there will be no change to any Shareholder’s voting power as a result of the issue of the New Options. Where New Options are exercised into Shares, the voting power of the Shareholders who exercise the New Options will increase. The likelihood of New Options being exercised is dependent on the price of Shares from time to time until the New Options expire.

3.7 Potential dilution on non-participating Shareholders

In addition to potential control impacts set out in Section 3.6, Shareholders should note that if they do not participate in the Offer, their holdings are likely to be diluted by approximately 10% (as compared to their holdings and number of Shares on issue as at the date of this Prospectus).

For illustrative purposes, the table below shows how the dilution may impact the holdings of Shareholders:

Total 1,124,545,124 124,949,458 1,249,494,582

Notes:

  1. This is based on a share capital of 1,124,545,124 Shares as at the date of the Prospectus and assumes no other Shares are issued.

  2. The dilutionary effect shown in the table is the maximum percentage on the assumption that those Entitlements not accepted by Eligible Shareholders are placed under the Shortfall Offer. In the event all Entitlements are not accepted and some or all of the resulting Shortfall was not subsequently placed, the dilution effect for each Shareholder not accepting their Entitlement would be a lesser percentage.

No immediate dilution will occur as a result of the issue of New Options under this Prospectus. However, subsequent exercise of any or all of the New Options will result in dilution. Assuming all New Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus are issued and exercised into Shares, Shareholders who do not participate in the Offer are likely to be diluted by an aggregate of approximately 18.2% (as compared to their holdings and number of Shares on issue as at the date of the Prospectus).

N/A

The Offer is non-renounceable. Accordingly, a Shareholder may not sell or transfer all or part of their Entitlement.

Foreign Eligible Shareholders who wish to accept all or part of their Entitlement, and who cannot make a payment via BPAY[®] , should contact the Company for details for payment by electronic funds transfer.

4.3 Payment options

(a) By BPAY[®]

For payment by BPAY[®] , please follow the instructions on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form. You can only make a payment via BPAY[®] if you are the holder of an account with an Australian financial institution that supports BPAY[®] transactions. Please note that should you choose to pay by BPAY[®] :

  • (i) you do not need to submit the Entitlement and Acceptance Form but are taken to have made the declarations on that Entitlement and Acceptance Form;

  • (ii) if you do not pay for your Entitlement in full, you are deemed to have taken up your Entitlement in respect of such whole number of Shares which is covered in full by your application monies; and

9

3538-11/2517689_2

  • (iii) if you pay more than is required to subscribe for your Entitlement, you will be taken to have applied for Shortfall Securities (if any) under the Shortfall Offer, to the extent of the excess.

You should be aware that your own financial institution may implement earlier cut-off times with regard to electronic payment, and you should therefore take this into consideration when making payment. It is your responsibility to ensure that funds submitted through BPAY[®] are received by 3:00pm (AEDT) on the Closing Date. The Company shall not be responsible for any delay in the receipt of the BPAY[®] payment.

Guidance where you have more than one CRN (Shareholding of Shares)

If you have more than one shareholding of Shares and consequently receive more than one Entitlement and Acceptance Form, when taking up your Entitlement in respect of one of those Shareholdings only use the CRN specific to that Shareholding as set out in the applicable Entitlement and Acceptance Form. Do not use the same CRN for more than one of your Shareholdings . This can result in your Application monies being applied to your Entitlement in respect of only one of your Shareholdings (with the result that any Application in respect of your remaining Shareholdings will not be valid).

(b) By Electronic Funds Transfer (overseas applicants)

For payment by electronic funds transfer ( EFT ) for overseas Eligible Shareholders, please contact the Company. You can only make a payment via EFT if you are the holder of an account that supports EFT transactions to an Australian bank account. Please note that should you choose to pay by EFT:

  • (i) you do not need to submit the Entitlement and Acceptance Form but are taken to have made the declarations on that Entitlement and Acceptance Form;

  • (ii) if you do not pay for your Entitlement in full, you are deemed to have taken up your Entitlement in respect of such whole number of Shares which is covered in full by your Application monies; and

  • (iii) if you pay more than is required to subscribe for your Entitlement, you will be taken to have applied for Shortfall Securities (if any) under the Shortfall Offer, to the extent of the excess.

(c) By Cheque

All cheques must be drawn on an Australian bank or bank draft made payable in Australian currency to “TNG Limited” and crossed “Not Negotiable”.

Your completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form and cheque must reach the Company’s share registry no later than 5:00pm (AEDT) on the Closing Date.

10

3538-11/2517689_2

4.4 Implications of an acceptance

Returning a completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form with cheque, or paying any application monies by BPAY[®] or EFT, will be taken to constitute a representation by you that:

  • (a) you have received a copy of this Prospectus and the accompanying Entitlement and Acceptance Form, and read them both in their entirety; and

  • (b) you acknowledge that once the completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form with cheque is returned, or a BPAY[®] or EFT payment instruction is given in relation to any application monies, the application may not be varied or withdrawn except as required by law.

4.5

Minimum subscription

The minimum subscription in respect of the Offer is $2,500,000.

No Securities will be issued until the minimum subscription has been received. If the minimum subscription is not achieved within 4 months after the date of issue of this Prospectus, the Company will either repay the application monies to the Applicants or issue a supplementary prospectus or replacement prospectus and allow Applicants one month to withdraw their application and be repaid their application monies.

4.6

Shortfall Offer

Any Entitlement not taken up pursuant to the Offer will form the Shortfall Offer. ( Shortfall Securities ). The Shortfall Offer is a separate offer made pursuant to this Prospectus and will remain open for up to three months following the Closing Date. The issue price for each Share to be issued under the Shortfall Offer shall be $0.10 being the price at which Shares have been offered under the Offer.

If you do not wish to take up any part of your Entitlement you are not required to take any action. That part of your Entitlement not taken up will form part of the Shortfall Offer and potentially be allocated to other Eligible Shareholders or other third parties as part of the Shortfall Offer. The Shortfall Offer will only be available where there is a Shortfall between applications received from Eligible Shareholders and the number of Shares proposed to be issued under the Offer.

Eligible Shareholders who wish to subscribe for Securities above their Entitlement are invited to apply for Shortfall Securities under the Shortfall Offer by completing the appropriate section on their Entitlement and Acceptance Form or by making payment for such Shortfall Securities in accordance with Section 4.3.

The Board presently intends to allocate Shortfall Securities as follows:

  • (a) to Eligible Shareholders who apply for an excess of their full Entitlement, so long as the issue of Shortfall Securities to that Eligible Shareholder would not take their voting power to in excess of 19.99%; and then

  • (b) to other parties, which may include parties who are not currently Shareholders, at the discretion of the Directors.

The Company reserves the right to issue an Eligible Shareholder a lesser number of Shortfall Securities than applied for or no Shortfall Securities at all. However, the Directors do not intend to refuse an application for Shortfall Securities from Eligible

11

3538-11/2517689_2

Shareholders other than in circumstances of oversubscription or where acceptance may result in a breach of the Corporations Act. If the number of Shortfall Securities applied for by Eligible Shareholders exceeds the total Shortfall, the Shortfall Securities will be allocated among applying Eligible Shareholders proportionate to their existing holdings.

All decisions regarding the allocation of Shortfall Securities will be made by the Directors and will be final and binding on all applicants under the Shortfall Offer; as such there is no guarantee that any Shortfall Securities applied for will be issued to Eligible Shareholders.

No Securities will be issued to an applicant under this Prospectus or via the Shortfall Offer if the issue of Securities would contravene the takeover prohibition in section 606 of the Corporations Act. Similarly, no Securities will be issued via the Shortfall Offer to any related parties of the Company.

Eligible Shareholders resident in jurisdictions outside Australia should note that their participation in the Shortfall Offer may be restricted by Australia’s foreign investment laws. The Company reserves the right to not issue Shortfall Securities to an Eligible Shareholder where it reasonably believes that doing so may infringe on Australia’s foreign investment laws.

If the Offer is not fully subscribed, the Company may engage with corporate and other advisors to place Shortfall Securities on standard fees of up to 5% of the funds raised from the Shortfall Securities placed.

Total 2,500,000 100 12,500,000 100

Notes:

  1. Mount Peake Project pre-development work includes design and engineering, approvals and permitting, and pre-development planning.

Design and engineering includes the Front-End Engineering and Design study being undertaken by SMS group for the Mount Peake mine site Beneficiation Plant and Darwin TIVAN[®] Processing Facility, non-process infrastructure works for both sites, and planned development of carbon-neutral technology with SMS group for the production of green hydrogen as part of an optimisation strategy for the Mount Peake Project.

Approvals and permitting includes the Supplement to the draft Environmental Impact Statement for the Darwin TIVAN[®] Processing Facility.

  1. Refer to Section 8.7 for further details relating to the estimated expenses of the Offer.

  2. Project corporate and administration costs includes costs related to project financing work streams, tenure maintenance and ongoing project administration.

If only the Minimum Subscription ($2,500,000) is raised under the Offer, the expenses of the Offer are not expected to change significantly. However, the Company will reduce the amount of funds allocated to the other items in the above table as follows:

  • (a) the Mount Peake Project pre-development work to $2 million;

  • (b) project corporate and administration costs to $0.25 million; and

  • (c) general corporate and working capital purposes to $0.162 million.

On completion of the Offer, the Board believes the Company will have sufficient working capital to achieve its stated objectives. In the event that only the Minimum Subscription is raised, operational objectives will need to be modified, which may result in delay or changes to the Company’s future plans. Funds raised in excess of the Minimum Subscription (after accounting for increased Offer costs) will be first applied towards continued Mount Peake Project pre-development work and then proportionately between Item 3 and Item 4 in the table above.

15

3538-11/2517689_2

In addition, it should be noted that the Company’s budgets and forecasts will be subject to modification on an ongoing basis depending on the results achieved from its ongoing pre-development activities.

The above table is a statement of current intentions as of the date of this Prospectus. As with any budget, intervening events and new circumstances have the potential to affect the manner in which the funds are ultimately applied. The Board reserves the right to alter the way funds are applied on this basis.

5.2

Effect of the Offer

The principal effect of the Offer, assuming all Entitlements are accepted prior to the Record Date, will be to:

  • (a) increase the Company’s cash reserves by approximately $12.38 million (after deducting the estimated expenses of the Offer) immediately after completion of the Offer;

  • (b) increase the number of Shares on issue from 1,124,545,124 as at the date of this Prospectus to 1,249,494,582 Shares; and

  • (c) increase the number of Options on issue from nil as at the date of this Prospectus to 124,949,458 Options.

5.3

Effect on capital structure

The effect of the Offer on the capital structure of the Company, assuming all Entitlements are accepted prior to the Closing Date, is set out below.

Shares

Number
Shares currently on issue 1,124,545,124

6. RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES ATTACHING TO SECURITIES

6.1 Shares

The following is a summary of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to Shares being offered pursuant to this Prospectus. This summary is not exhaustive and does not constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. To obtain such a statement, persons should seek independent legal advice.

Full details of the rights and liabilities attaching to Shares are set out in the Constitution, a copy of which is available for inspection at the Company’s registered office during normal business hours:

(a) General meetings

Shareholders are entitled to be present in person, or by proxy, attorney or corporate representative to attend and vote at general meetings of the Company.

Shareholders may requisition meetings in accordance with Section 249D of the Corporations Act.

(b) Voting rights

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of Shares, at general meetings of Shareholders or classes of Shareholders:

  • (i) each Shareholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy, attorney or corporate representative;

  • (ii) on a show of hands, every person present who is a Shareholder or a representative of a Shareholder has one vote; and

  • (iii) on a poll, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or corporate representative of a Shareholder shall have:

  • (A) one vote for each fully paid up Share (whether the issue price of the Share was paid up or credited or both) that the Shareholder holds; and

  • (B) a fraction of one vote for each partly paid up Share that the Shareholder holds. The fraction is equal to the proportion which the amount paid up on that Share (excluding amounts credited) is to the total amounts paid up and payable (excluding amounts credited) on that Share.

(c) Dividend rights

  • All dividends must be declared and paid to Shareholders on Shares amounting to:

  • (i) the entire dividend, if the share is fully paid (whether the issue price of the Share was paid or credited or both); or

  • (ii) a proportion of that dividend equal to the proportion which the amount paid (excluding amounts credited) on that Share is of

19

3538-11/2517689_2

the total amounts paid or payable (excluding amounts credited) on that Share.

(d) Winding-up

Subject to any rights or restrictions attached to a class of Shares, on a winding up of the Company, any surplus must be divided among the Shareholders in the proportions which the amount paid (including amounts credited) on the Shares of a shareholder is of the total amounts paid and payable (including amounts credited) on the Shares of all Shareholders.

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the sanction of a special resolution of the Company:

(i) distribute among the Shareholders the whole or any part of the property of the Company; and

(ii) decide how to distribute the property as between the Shareholders or different classes of Shareholders.

(e) Shareholder liability

If a Shareholder fails to pay any call or instalment on a partly paid share, the share may be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors.

(f) Transfer of Shares

Generally, Shares are freely transferable, subject to formal requirements, the registration of the transfer not resulting in a contravention of or failure to observe the provisions of a law of Australia and the transfer not being in breach of the Corporations Act or the ASX Listing Rules.

(g) Variation of rights

Pursuant to Section 246B of the Corporations Act, the Company may, with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a meeting of Shareholders vary or abrogate the rights attaching to Shares.

If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of Shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class), whether or not the Company is being wound up, may be varied or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders of three-quarters of the issued shares of that class, or if authorised by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.

(h) Alteration of Constitution

The Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of Shareholders present and voting at the general meeting. In addition, at least 28 days written notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution must be given.

20

3538-11/2517689_2

6.2 New Options

The New Options entitle the holder to subscribe for Shares on the following terms and conditions:

(a) Entitlement

Each New Option entitles the holder to subscribe for one Share upon exercise of the New Option.

(b) Exercise Price

Subject to paragraph (i), the amount payable upon exercise of each New Option will be $0.18 ( Exercise Price ).

(c) Expiry Date

Each New Option will expire at 5:00 pm (AEDT) on 30 November 2021 ( Expiry Date ). A New Option not exercised before the Expiry Date will automatically lapse at 5:00 pm (AEDT) on the Expiry Date.

(d) Exercise Period

The New Options are exercisable at any time on or prior to the Expiry Date ( Exercise Period ).

(e) Notice of Exercise

The New Options may be exercised during the Exercise Period by notice in writing to the Company in the manner specified on the option certificate ( Notice of Exercise ) and payment of the Exercise Price for each New Option being exercised in Australian currency by electronic funds transfer or other means of payment acceptable to the Company.

(f) Exercise Date

A Notice of Exercise is only effective on and from the later of the date of receipt of the Notice of Exercise and the date of receipt of the payment of the Exercise Price for each New Option being exercised in cleared funds ( Exercise Date ).

(g) Timing of issue of Shares on exercise

Within five (5) Business Days after the Exercise Date, the Company will:

  • (i) issue the number of Shares required under these terms and conditions in respect of the number of New Options specified in the Notice of Exercise and for which cleared funds have been received by the Company;

  • (ii) if required, give ASX a notice that complies with Section 708A(5)(e) of the Corporations Act, or, if the Company is unable to issue such a notice, lodge with ASIC a prospectus prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act and do all such things necessary to satisfy Section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors; and

21

3538-11/2517689_2

  • (iii) if admitted to the official list of ASX at the time, apply for official quotation on ASX of Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the New Options.

If a notice delivered under (g)(ii) for any reason is not effective to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors, the Company must, no later than 20 Business Days after becoming aware of such notice being ineffective, lodge with ASIC a prospectus prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act and do all such things necessary to satisfy Section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors.

(h) Shares issued on exercise

Shares issued on exercise of the New Options rank equally with the then issued shares of the Company.

(i)

Reconstruction of capital

If at any time the issued capital of the Company is reconstructed, all rights of an Optionholder are to be changed in a manner consistent with the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules at the time of the reconstruction.

(j)

Participation in new issues

There are no participation rights or entitlements inherent in the New Options and holders will not be entitled to participate in new issues of capital offered to Shareholders during the currency of the New Options without exercising the New Options.

(k) Change in exercise price

A New Option does not confer the right to a change in Exercise Price or a change in the number of underlying securities over which the New Option can be exercised.

(l)

Transferability

The New Options are transferable subject to any restriction or escrow arrangements imposed by the ASX or under applicable Australian securities laws.

(m) Quotation

The Company will apply for quotation of the New Options on the official list of the ASX.

7. RISK FACTORS

7.1 Introduction

The Securities offered under this Prospectus are considered highly speculative. An investment in the Company is not risk free and the Directors strongly recommend potential investors to consider the risk factors described below, together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus and to consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Securities pursuant to this Prospectus.

There are specific risks which relate directly to the Company’s business. In addition, there are other general risks, many of which are largely beyond the control of the Company and the Directors. The risks identified in this section, or other risk factors, may have a material impact on the financial performance of the Company and the market price of the Shares.

The following is not intended to be an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed.

7.2 Company specific

(a) Potential for dilution

Upon implementation of the Offer, assuming all Entitlements are accepted, the number of Shares on issue will increase from 1,124,545,124 currently on issue to 1,249,494,582 and the number of Options on issue will increase from nil to 124,949,458. This means that immediately after the Offer, each Share will represent a lower proportion of the ownership of the Company.

Further, if the New Options are subsequently exercised and Shares are issued on exercise of those New Options, each Share will represent a lower proportion of the ownership of the Company.

It is not possible to predict what the value of the Company, a Share or a New Option will be following the completion of the Offer and the Directors do not make any representation as to such matters.

The last trading price of Shares on ASX prior to the Prospectus being lodged of $0.12 is not a reliable indicator as to the potential trading price of Shares after implementation of the Offer.

(b) Control risk

Deutsche Balaton (with its associates) is currently the largest Shareholder of the Company and has a relevant interest (with its associates) in approximately 12.28% of the Shares on issue.

Assuming Deutsche Balaton and its associates takes up their full Entitlement and no other Shareholders accept their entitlements, Deutsche Balaton’s voting power in the Company could increase to up to 13.46%.

23

3538-11/2517689_2

(c) Additional requirements for capital

It is highly likely that further funding will be required to meet the medium to long term working capital costs of the Company. The Company may seek to raise further funds through equity or debt financing, joint ventures or other means.

Failure to obtain sufficient financing for the Company’s activities and future projects may result in delay and/or indefinite postponement of exploration, development or production on the Company’s properties or even loss of a property interest. There can be no assurance that additional finance will be available when needed or, if available, the terms of the financing might not be favourable to the Company and might involve substantial dilution to Shareholders.

(d) Development risk

While the Company’s strategy is to develop the Mount Peake Project ( Project ) into an operational asset, the Company currently has no cash producing assets. Therefore, it does not currently generate positive cash flow, and has incurred losses for each of the financial years ended 30 June 2020, 30 June 2019 and 30 June 2018. These losses reflect that the Company’s current business activities are as an exploration and evaluation company in a pre-development phase, with regard to activities at the Mount Peake Project.

The Company’s ultimate success will depend on its ability to develop the Mount Peake Project, reach the production stage, generate cash flow in the future and to have positive net cashflow following repayment of the significant debt required to develop the Project. The Company will continue to report negative cashflow from operations until vanadium pentoxide and/or titanium dioxide pigment and/or iron oxide products from the proposed development of the Mount Peake Project can be sold in sufficient quantities.

(e) Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates and targets

The Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates cited in the Company’s public disclosures in respect of the Mount Peake Project are based on a number of assumptions that have been made in accordance with the JORC Code.

Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates are inherently prone to variability, as they involve expressions of judgement based on various factors such as knowledge, experience and industry practice. The accuracy of these estimates may be affected by many factors, including quality of the results of exploration drilling and analysis of samples, as well as the procedures adopted by and the experience of those making the estimates, the interpretation of which is subjective.

Estimates of the Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves may change significantly in the future when new information becomes available or new factors arise, and interpretations and deductions on which these estimates are based may prove to be inaccurate.

Should the Company encounter mineralisation that is more complex or different from that predicted by past drilling, sampling and similar

24

3538-11/2517689_2

examination, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserve estimates may have to be adjusted downward.

Additionally, lower market prices, increased production costs, reduced recovery rates and/or other factors may render the resources uneconomical to exploit and may result in the revision of the Company’s Mineral Resources and Ore Reserve estimates from time to time.

(f)

Financing of Mount Peake Project

The development of the Mount Peake Project will require significant capital expenditure and it in particular will require external debt and equity financing.

A variety of factors, some of which are outside of the Company’s control (including, but not limited to, the global credit environment then existing) may mean that the Company may be unable to obtain debt financing or additional equity financing in the amounts required for its expenditures beyond its current committed capital expenditure, on favourable terms or at all.

If the Company is unable to secure sufficient borrowings and equity finance, it is highly likely that, other than in respect of its current committed capital expenditure, it would be unable to develop the Mount Peake Project. This would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows or the Company’s ability to fund the expansion or development of its business in the longer term.

(g)

Risks associated with the development of the Mount Peake Project

The Company’s future success will largely depend upon the Company’s ability to develop and manage the Mount Peake Project. In particular, the Company’s success is dependent upon the Directors’ ability to implement the Company’s strategy, to develop the Project and to maintain ongoing vanadium pentoxide, titanium dioxide pigment and iron oxide production from the Project.

Development of the Mount Peake Project could be delayed, experience interruptions, incur increased costs or be unable to complete due to a number of factors, including but not limited to:

  • (i) changes in the regulatory environment including environmental compliance requirements;

  • (ii) non-performance by third party consultants and contractors;

  • (iii) inability to attract, train and retain a sufficient number of workers;

  • (iv) unforeseen escalation in anticipated costs of development, or delays in construction, or adverse currency movements resulting in insufficient funds being available to complete planned development;

  • (v) shortages or delays in obtaining critical mining and processing equipment and services;

  • (vi) catastrophic events such as fires, storms or explosions;

25

3538-11/2517689_2

  • (vii) construction, procurement and/or performance of the processing plants and ancillary operations falling below expected levels of output or efficiency;

  • (viii) civil unrest in and/or around the mine site and supply routes, which would adversely affect the community support of the Company’s operations;

  • (ix) changes to anticipated levels of taxes and imposed royalties; and

  • (x) a material and prolonged deterioration in vanadium pentoxide and/or titanium dioxide pigment and/or iron oxide market conditions, resulting in material price erosion in one or all of these products.

It is not uncommon for new mining developments to experience some or all of these factors during their construction, commissioning and production start-up, or indeed for such projects to fail as a result of one or more of these factors occurring to a material extent. Any of these factors may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and activities, financial condition and prospects.

(h) Risks associated with the TIVAN[®] metallurgical process

The Company’s future success is reliant on the success of the implementation of its 100% owned TIVAN[®] metallurgical process. There may be an adverse effect on the development of the Mount Peake Project should the Company be unable to successfully implement the TIVAN[®] process.

(i) Risks associated with the TIVAN[®] Processing Facility EIS

The Company is preparing a Supplement to the draft Environmental Impact Statement ( EIS ) submitted in October 2019 for the Company’s proposed TIVAN[®] Processing Facility in Darwin, the Northern Territory. The Company continues to liaise with regulators in respect of the EIS, however there can be no guarantee that the findings of the EIS will be positive. A negative EIS result could cause delays to the development of the Mount Peake Project.

(j) Permitting and licence requirements

The Company’s ability to conduct operations at the Mount Peake Project is dependent upon the Company maintaining title to its Mineral Leases, Access Authorities and Exploration Licences in the Northern Territory, and securing tenure on acceptable terms for the site location of the proposed TIVAN[®] processing facility in Darwin, the Northern Territory.

The Company’s tenements are subject to the applicable mining legislation in the Northern Territory. Any inability by the Company to comply with the conditions upon which the tenements have been granted may result in the forfeiture of those tenements which in turn could adversely affect the operations, financial position and/or performance of the Company.

Further, the Company must obtain the relevant government approvals to conduct mining operations at the Mount Peake Project.

26

3538-11/2517689_2

The Company (via its subsidiary) currently has authority to conduct its exploration activities at the Mount Peake Project. It has submitted a Mining Operations Mining Management Plan (which would confer authority to conduct mining activities at the Mount Peake Project) to the Northern Territory Minister for Primary Industry and Resources and is awaiting approval for this plan. Delay in obtaining this approval could materially affect the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition and the price of the Shares.

(k)

Native title and Aboriginal Heritage risk factors

Native title or Aboriginal heritage sites or objects may exist in the areas covered by the Company’s tenements.

Searches of the Register of Native Title Claims have revealed that the Company’s tenements in the Northern Territory are within the area of a registered native title claim. There are also a number of Aboriginal sacred sites and Aboriginal archaeological places registered within the area of the Company’s tenements in the Northern Territory.

Whilst native title could potentially impact the status, renewal and conversion of existing tenements held by the Company and may impact the future grant of new tenements, there is an Indigenous Land Use Agreement executed between the Company, its subsidiary Enigma Mining Limited, the Central Land Council and Eynewantheyne Aboriginal Corporation RNTBC which governs the Company’s activities on its Mineral Leases and Access Authorities in the Northern Territory.

It is the Company’s opinion that none of the registered Aboriginal heritage and archaeological sites overlap any key development areas within the tenements.

(l)

Reliance on Offtake Arrangements

The financial performance of the Company is dependent on the Company achieving sales of commercial volumes of its product pursuant to offtake and marketing agreements. Whilst the Company has entered into a number of offtake agreements with various parties, in the event that there is a failure by any party to fulfil the terms of any existing offtake agreement, or a failure to negotiate and secure future offtake agreements on terms favourable to the Company, this could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s future earnings and financial performance.

(m) Reliance on infrastructure and transport systems

The Company’s mining, processing, development and exploration activities depend on adequate infrastructure, including reliable roads, rail, power sources and water supplies.

Any failure or unavailability of the infrastructure on which the Company’s operations rely (for example, through equipment failure or service disruption) could adversely affect the Company’s exploration activities or the development and future operation of the Mount Peake Project.

27

3538-11/2517689_2

(n) Reliance on third party contractors

The Company will seek to enter into agreements with third party service providers in connection with future development plans for the Mount Peake Project.

However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure in a timely manner, on commercially acceptable terms (including as to cost) or at all, the provision of all of the services that the Company will need to execute its development plans, or that such arrangements will be sufficient for its future needs or will not be interrupted.

Should the Company be unable to acquire or retain providers of key services on favourable terms, or should there be interruptions to, or inadequacies with, any services provided, this could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of its operations and its financial condition and the price of the Shares.

7.3 Industry specific

(a) Commodity price fluctuation

The Company’s future financial performance will be highly dependent on the market price of products, in particular the price of vanadium pentoxide, titanium dioxide pigment and iron oxide able to be sold by the Company subject to development of the Mount Peake Project.

Mineral prices are volatile and fluctuate widely and are affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company. General economic factors as well as the world supply of mineral commodities, the stability of exchange rates, political developments and the strength and confidence in USD (the currency in which the prices of each of vanadium pentoxide, titanium dioxide pigment and iron oxide are generally quoted) can all cause significant fluctuations in prices. The price of mineral commodities has fluctuated widely in recent years and future price declines could cause commercial production to be impracticable, thereby having a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

(b) Exploration risk

Any exploration undertaken by the Company is speculative and may be unsuccessful. These activities often require substantial expenditure to establish Ore Reserves through drilling and metallurgical and other testing; determine appropriate recovery processes; and construct, renovate or expand mining and processing facilities. Once deposits are discovered it can take several years to determine whether Ore Reserves exist. During this time, the economic viability of production may change. As a result of these uncertainties, the exploration programmes engaged in by the Company may not result in new operations. This could materially affect the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition and the price of the Shares.

(c) Operational risks

The Company’s planned mining and processing operations are subject to a number of operational risks and hazards, some of which are beyond its control. Risks commonly associated with mine development and

28

3538-11/2517689_2

operation include variations in rock structure and strength as it impacts on construction of the mine, and de-watering and water handling requirements (if required) and unexpected local ground conditions. Hazards, such as unusual or unexpected rock formations, rock bursts, pressures, collapses, flooding, or other conditions may be encountered during construction. Additional risks and hazards include unexpected maintenance or technical problems, natural disasters, industrial accidents, power or fuel supply interruptions, water supply interruptions and shortages, machinery and equipment failure, malfunction and breakdowns of information management systems.

Further, operations of the Company may be disrupted by a variety of risks and hazards which are beyond the control of the Company, including environmental hazards (as noted above), industrial accidents, technical failures, labour disputes, flooding and extended interruptions due to inclement or hazardous weather conditions, fire, explosions, and other incidents.

Any of these risks and hazards could also result in damage to, or destruction of, production facilities, personal injury, environmental damage, business interruption or permanent cessation, monetary losses and possible legal liability, each of which may hinder the development and/or operation of the Mount Peake Project and which could materially affect the Company’s business, result of operations and financial condition and the price of Shares.

Limiting the impact of such risks if they arise may require additional capital or operational expenditure, which may have a material adverse impact on the business and its profitability.

(d) Insurance risk

The Company maintains insurance of the type and in the amounts that the Directors consider necessary for the Company’s operations. However, the Company is unable to insure against all risks and may be exposed under certain circumstances to uninsurable hazards and risks, which may result in financial liability, property damage, personal injury or other hazards or liability for the acts or omissions of sub-contractors, operators and other third parties. Although indemnities may have been provided by sub-contractors, operators and other third parties, such indemnities may be difficult to enforce given the financial positions of those giving the indemnities or due to the jurisdiction in which the Company seeks to enforce the indemnities, leaving the Company exposed to claims by third parties.

There is also no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain adequate insurance in the future at rates that the Company considers reasonable. Accordingly, the Company could incur substantial losses if an event which is not fully covered by insurance occurs, which would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operation, financial condition and the price of the Shares.

(e) Reliance on key personnel

The Company is reliant on a number of key personnel. The loss of one or more of its key personnel could have an adverse impact on the business of the Company. Furthermore, it may be particularly difficult for the Company to attract and retain suitably qualified and experienced

29

3538-11/2517689_2

people, given the competition from other industry participants and the relative size of the Company.

(f)

Currency fluctuation

The Company is exposed to currency and exchange rate fluctuations. Future sales of the Company are likely to be in USD, while the capital expenditure for the proposed development of the Mount Peake Project may also be in foreign currencies. This may expose the Company to the fluctuations and volatility of the rate of exchange between currencies as determined by the international market. Any extreme fluctuations in these currencies may have an adverse impact on the financial performance of the Company.

7.4 Legal and regulatory compliance risks

(a) Environmental compliance

The Company is subject to various Australian federal, state, territory, provincial and municipal environmental laws. Any project which involves the exploration for minerals, development of mines and the extraction and production of vanadium pentoxide, titanium dioxide pigment and iron oxide has the potential to be hazardous to the environment and environmental damage may occur that is costly to remedy.

Although the Company believes that it is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable environmental laws and regulations, there are certain risks inherent to its activities, such as accidental spillages, leakages or other unforeseen circumstances, which could subject the Company to substantial remediation costs or liabilities to third parties.

The Company could be liable for losses associated with environmental hazards and rehabilitation that are not covered under a mine closure plan, have its licences and permits withdrawn or suspended as a result of a failure to meet its environmental obligations due to circumstances outside of its control. Any such losses, withdrawals, suspensions, reputational consequences, actions or payments may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition and the price of the Shares.

(b) Health and safety compliance

The Company is required to comply with a range of health and safety laws and regulations in connection with its exploration and development activities. A violation of health and safety laws, or a failure to comply with the instructions of the relevant health and safety authorities, could lead to, among other things, a temporary shutdown of all or a portion of the Company’s operations, a loss of the Company’s right to mine, operate a processing plant or transport mineral products, or the imposition of costly compliance measures, criminal sanctions and/or monetary penalties.

The Company has established health and safety policies and procedures, consistent with its stage of development. However, there can be no assurance that the Company’s health and safety programme will be effective, will comply with applicable laws or that costs of implementation will not increase significantly. If health and safety authorities were to require the Company to shut down all or a portion of its operations, or to implement costly compliance measures, whether

30

3538-11/2517689_2

pursuant to existing or new health and safety laws and regulations, or the more stringent enforcement of existing laws and regulations, such measures could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

(c)

Legal and governmental compliance

Exploration, development and operational activities in the mining industry are subject to extensive laws and regulations. These include, but are not limited to, laws and regulations relating to taxation, environmental protection, management and use of hazardous substances and explosives, management of natural resources, licences over resources owned by governments, exploration, development of mines, production and post-closure reclamation, the employment of local and expatriate labour, and occupational health and safety standards, including mine safety.

The costs associated with compliance with these laws, regulations and licences are substantial, and possible additional future laws and regulations or changes to existing laws and regulations (including, but not restricted to, the imposition of higher licence fees, mining royalties or taxes) could cause additional expenditure (including capital expenditure) to be incurred or impose restrictions on, or suspensions of, the Company’s operations and cause delays in the development of its properties.

The occurrence of any of these factors may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition and the price of the Shares.

(d)

Climate change regulation

Mining of mineral resources is relatively energy intensive and is dependent on the consumption of fossil fuels. Increased regulation and government policy designed to mitigate climate change may adversely affect the Company's cost of operations and adversely impact the financial performance of the Company.

(e)

Government policy changes

Adverse changes in government policies or legislation may affect the Company’s ability to develop its technology, taxation, royalties, ownership of mineral interests, land access, labour relations, and mining and exploration activities of the Company. Any material adverse changes in relevant government policies or legislation of Australia may affect the viability and profitability of the Company, and consequent returns to investors.

7.5 General risks

(a) Coronavirus (COVID-19)

The outbreak of the coronavirus disease ( COVID-19 ) is impacting global economic markets. The nature and extent of the effect of the outbreak on the performance of the Company remains unknown. The Company’s Share price may be adversely affected in the short to medium term by the economic uncertainty caused by COVID-19. Further, any governmental or industry measures taken in response to COVID-19 may

31

3538-11/2517689_2

adversely impact the Company’s operations, including the ability to travel from Western Australia to the Northern Territory where the Mount Peake Project is located, and are likely to be beyond the control of the Company.

The COVID-19 situation may result in delays in development, financing and to the government approval processes relating to the Mount Peake Project.

The Directors are monitoring the situation closely and have considered the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business and financial performance. However, the situation is continually evolving, and the consequences are therefore inevitably uncertain. If any of these impacts appear material prior to close of the Offer, the Company will notify investors under a supplementary prospectus.

(b) Share market conditions

Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s quoted securities regardless of the Company’s operating performance. Share market conditions are affected by many factors such as:

  • (i) general economic outlook;

  • (ii) introduction of tax reform or other new legislation;

  • (iii) interest rates and inflation rates;

  • (iv) changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

  • (v) the demand for, and supply of, capital; and

  • (vi) terrorism or other hostilities.

The market price of securities can fall as well as rise and may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general and resource exploration stocks in particular. Neither the Company nor the Directors warrant the future performance of the Company or any return on an investment in the Company.

(c)

Litigation risks

The Company is exposed to possible litigation risks including intellectual property claims, contractual disputes, occupational health and safety claims and employee claims. Further, the Company may be involved in disputes with other parties in the future which may result in litigation. Any such claim or dispute if proven, may impact adversely on the Company’s operations, financial performance and financial position. The Company is not currently engaged in any litigation.

(d) Potential acquisitions

As part of its business strategy, the Company may make acquisitions of, or significant investments in, complementary companies or prospects although no such acquisitions or investments are currently planned. Any such transactions will be accompanied by risks commonly encountered in making such acquisitions.

32

3538-11/2517689_2

7.6 Speculative investment

The above list of risk factors ought not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The above factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the Securities under this Prospectus and the underlying Shares.

Therefore, the underlying Shares carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those Shares.

Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Securities pursuant to the Offer.

33

8. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

8.1 Litigation

As at the date of this Prospectus, the Company is not involved in any legal proceedings and the Directors are not aware of any legal proceedings pending or threatened against the Company.

8.2

Continuous disclosure obligations

The Company is a “disclosing entity” (as defined in Section 111AC of the Corporations Act) for the purposes of Section 713 of the Corporations Act and, as such, is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company is required to continuously disclose any information it has to the market which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Company’s securities.

This Prospectus is a “transaction specific prospectus”. In general terms, a “transaction specific prospectus” is only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of securities on a company and the rights attaching to the securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses or prospects of the issuing company.

This Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Investors should therefore have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest.

Having taken such precautions and having made such enquires as are reasonable, the Company believes that it has complied with the general and specific requirements of ASX as applicable from time to time throughout the three (3) months before the issue of this Prospectus which required the Company to notify ASX of information about specified events or matters as they arise for the purpose of ASX making that information available to the stock market conducted by ASX.

Information that is already in the public domain has not been reported in this Prospectus other than that which is considered necessary to make this Prospectus complete.

The Company, as a disclosing entity under the Corporations Act states that:

  • (a) it is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations;

  • (b) copies of documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company (not being documents referred to in Section 1274(2)(a) of the Corporations Act) may be obtained from, or inspected at, the offices of the ASIC; and

34

3538-11/2517689_2

  • (c) it will provide a copy of each of the following documents, free of charge, to any person on request between the date of issue of this Prospectus and the Closing Date:

  • (i) the annual financial report most recently lodged by the Company with the ASIC;

  • (ii) any half-year financial report lodged by the Company with the ASIC after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC; and

  • (iii) any continuous disclosure documents given by the Company to ASX in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules as referred to in Section 674(1) of the Corporations Act after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC.

Copies of all documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company can be inspected at the registered office of the Company during normal office hours.

Details of documents lodged by the Company with ASX since the date of lodgement of the Company’s latest annual financial report and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC are set out in the table below.

Remuneration

The remuneration of an executive Director is decided by the Board, without the affected executive Director participating in that decision-making process. The total maximum remuneration of non-executive Directors is determined by ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting in accordance with the Constitution, the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, as applicable. The determination of non-executive Directors’ remuneration within that maximum will be made by the Board having regard to the inputs and value to the Company of the respective contributions by each non-executive Director.

A Director may be paid fees or other amounts (i.e. non-cash performance incentives such as rights or options, subject to any necessary Shareholder approval) as the other Directors determine where a Director performs special duties or otherwise performs services outside the scope of the ordinary duties of a Director. In addition, Directors are also entitled to be paid reasonable travelling, accommodation and other expenses incurred by them respectively in or about the performance of their duties as Directors.

38

3538-11/2517689_2

of the Prospectus, or both. Alternatively, you may obtain a copy of this Prospectus from the Company’s website at www.tngltd.com.au.

The Company reserves the right not to accept an Application Form from a person if it has reason to believe that when that person was given access to the electronic Application Form, it was not provided together with the electronic Prospectus and any relevant supplementary or replacement prospectus or any of those documents were incomplete or altered.

8.9

Financial forecasts

The Directors have considered the matters set out in ASIC Regulatory Guide 170 (“Prospective Financial Information”) and believe that it would not be appropriate to forecast future earnings in this Prospectus.

8.10 Clearing House Electronic Sub-Register System (CHESS) and Issuer Sponsorship

The Company is a participant in CHESS, for those investors who have, or wish to have, a sponsoring stockbroker. Investors who do not wish to participate through CHESS will be issuer sponsored by the Company. Because the sub-registers are electronic, ownership of securities can be transferred without having to rely upon paper documentation.

Electronic registers mean that the Company will not be issuing certificates to investors. Instead, investors will be provided with a statement (similar to a bank account statement) that sets out the number of Securities issued to them under this Prospectus. The notice will also advise holders of their Holder Identification Number or Security Holder Reference Number and explain, for future reference, the sale and purchase procedures under CHESS and issuer sponsorship.

Further monthly statements will be provided to holders if there have been any changes in their security holding in the Company during the preceding month.

8.11

Privacy Act

If you complete an application for Securities, you will be providing personal information to the Company (directly or by the Company’s share registry). The Company collects, holds and will use that information to assess your application, service your needs as a holder of equity securities in the Company, facilitate any distribution payments and corporate communications to you and carry out administration.

The information may also be used from time to time and disclosed to persons inspecting the register, bidders for your securities in the context of takeovers, regulatory bodies, including the Australian Taxation Office, authorised securities brokers, print service providers, mail houses and the Company’s share registry.

You can access, correct and update the personal information that the Company holds about you. Please contact the Company or its share registry if you wish to do so at the relevant contact numbers set out in this Prospectus.

Collection, maintenance and disclosure of certain personal information is governed by legislation including the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (as amended), the Corporations Act and certain rules such as the ASX Settlement Operating Rules. You should note that if you do not provide the information required on the application for Securities, the Company may not be able to accept or process your application.
