RESOLUTION 4 – APPROVAL OF PRIOR ISSUE OF ORDINARY SHARES

Resolution 4 is in respect of the issue of 27,665,454 ordinary fully paid shares.

On 27 March 2014, the Company issued 27,665,454 shares to sophisticated and institutional investors in Australia and internationally, at an issue price of A$0.11 to raise A$3,043,200. This issue is a partial allocation of a placement to raise a total of approximately A$4 million as announced on 18 March 2014. Funds raised from the placement are being used to fund the next phase of the drilling and exploration programs on the key graphite Balama North project in Mozambique

The 27,665,454 Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of those Shares (Ratification).

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that without shareholder approval, a company must not issue or agree to issue new “equity securities” constituting more than 15% of its total ordinary shares on issue within a twelve (12) month period, excluding any issue of shares approved by shareholders.

However ASX Listing Rule 7.4 allows an issue of securities made without the approval of shareholders to be treated as having been made with approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provided the issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and shareholders subsequently approve the issue.

Shareholder approval is now sought pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 to approve the prior issue so that the Company retains its capacity to issue up to a full 15% of its issued capital, if required, in the next twelve (12) months without shareholder approval.

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

  • (i) the total number of ordinary fully paid shares issued is 27,665,454;

  • (ii) the issue price of the ordinary shares in respect of this resolution is A$0.11 per share;

8

  • (iii) the ordinary shares issued rank equally with the Company’s existing ordinary shares on issue;

  • (iv) the shares were issued to sophisticated and institutional investors in Australia and internationally and are not a related parties to the Company;

  • (v) the funds raised from this issue are being used to fund the next phase of the drilling and exploration program on the key graphite Balama North project in Mozambique; and

  • (vi) the issue of the above equity securities when made did not breach Listing Rule 7.1.

RESOLUTION 5 – APPROVAL OF 10% PLACEMENT FACILITY

Listing Rule 7.1A enables eligible entities to issue “equity securities” up to 10% of its issued share capital through placements over a 12 month period after the annual general meeting (10% Placement Facility). The 10% Placement Facility is in addition to the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

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 A&P/ASX 300 Index and has a current market capitalisation of approximately $26 million.

The Company is now seeking shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to have the ability to issue equity securities under the 10% Placement Facility.

The exact number of Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Facility will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (see below).

As disclosed in the Company’s previous Annual Reports and Quarterly Activity Reports, the Company continues actively seeking to increase work on its current exploration assets and reviewing new potential projects and investments. Should the Company utilise the 10% Placement Facility, the Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for the following purposes:

  • (i) non-cash consideration in relation to costs associated with the acquisition of new resource assets and investments. In such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the noncash consideration as required by Listing Rule 7.1A.3; or

  • (ii) cash consideration. In such circumstances, the Company intends to use the funds raised towards an acquisition of resource assets or investments (which may include costs associated with due diligence and engagement of advisors in assessing new resource assets) and/or continued exploration on the Company’s existing resource assets in Africa (the Mozambique Graphite Project) and Australia (the Fraser Range North Projects) or to meet additional working capital requirements.

Resolution 5 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative).

The Directors of the Company believe that Resolution 5 is in the best interests of the Company and unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of this resolution.

Description of Listing Rule 7.1A

  • (a) Shareholder approval

9

The ability to issue equity securities under the 10% Placement Facility is subject to shareholder approval by way of a special resolution at an annual general meeting.

(b) Equity Securities

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.

The Company, as at the date of the Notice, has on issue Shares and Convertible Securities.

(c) Formula for calculating the 10% Placement Facility

Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that eligible entities which have obtained shareholder approval at an annual general meeting 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 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 and 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 that A has the same meaning 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.

(d) Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A

The ability of an entity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A is in addition to the entity’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

In accordance with Listing Rule 7.1, as at the date of this Notice, the Company currently has on issue 245,676,903 shares, subject to shareholder approval being sought and received under Resolution 4 to refresh the Company’s 15% capacity, the Company will therefore have a new capacity to issue 36,851,535 equity securities.

Subject to shareholder approval being sought under Resolution 5, under Listing Rule 7.1A the Company requests an additional 10% capacity which will increase the total number of equity securities that can be placed without shareholder approval to 61,419,225 for the next 12 months.

10

The actual number of Equity Securities that the Company will have 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 paragraph (c) above).

(e) Minimum Issue Price

The issue price of equity securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A must not be less than 75% of the VWAP of equity securities in the same class calculated 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.

(f) 10% Placement Period

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:

  • (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which approval is obtained; or

  • (ii) 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),

or such longer period if allowed by ASX (10% Placement Period).

Listing Rule 7.1A

The effect of Resolution 5 will be to allow the Directors to issue the Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the 10% Placement Period without using the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A

In accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, information is provided as follows:

  • (a) 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) If Resolution 5 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 below table (in the case of Convertible Securities, only if the Convertible Securities are converted into Shares. The Company notes as of the date of this notice the Company has 32,085,713 unlisted Convertible Securities with various expiry dates.) There is a risk that:

11

  • (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 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.

  • (c) The below table shows the dilution of existing Shareholders on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of ordinary securities for variable "A" calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A(2) as at the date of the Notice.

  • (d) 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 Shareholders’ meeting; and

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

* The number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a pro-rata rights issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

  - (i) The Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility.

  - (ii) No Convertible Securities (including any Convertible Securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility) are converted into Shares before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities;

  - (iii) 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 as10%.

  - (iv) 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 Meeting.

  - (v) 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.

  - (vi) The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares. If the issue of Equity Securities includes Convertible Securities, it is assumed that those Convertible Securities are converted into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.

  - (vii) The issue price is $0.11 being the closing price of Shares on the ASX on 10 April 2014.
  • (e) The Company will only issue the Equity Securities during the 10% Placement Period.

  • (f) The Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for the following purposes: (i) non-cash consideration in relation to costs associated with the acquisition of new resource assets and investments. In such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the noncash consideration as required by Listing Rule 7.1A.3; or

  • (ii) cash consideration. In such circumstances, the Company intends to use the funds raised towards an acquisition of resource assets or investments (which may include costs associated with due diligence and engagement of advisors in assessing new resource assets) and/or continued exploration on the Company’s existing resource assets in Africa (the Mozambique Graphite Project) and Australia (the Fraser Range North Projects) or to meet additional working capital requirements.

Instructions for Completing ‘Appointment of Proxy’ Form

( Appointing a Proxy ): A shareholder entitled to attend and vote at a Meeting is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies to attend and vote on their behalf. Where more than one proxy is appointed, such proxy must be allocated a proportion of the shareholder’s voting rights. If the shareholder appoints two proxies and the appointment does not specify this proportion, each proxy may exercise half the votes.

  1. ( Joint Holding ): A duly appointed proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company. In the case of joint holders, all must sign.

( Companies ): Corporate shareholders should comply with the execution requirements set out on the Proxy Form or otherwise with the provisions of Section 127 of the Corporations Act. Section 127 of the Corporations Act provides that a company may execute a document without using its common seal if the document is signed by:

  • 2 x directors of the company;

  • a director and a company secretary of the company; or

  • for a proprietary company that has a sole director who is also the sole company secretary – that director.

For the Company to rely on the assumptions set out in Section 129(5) and (6) of the Corporations Act, a document must appear to have been executed in accordance with Section 127(1) or (2). This effectively means that the status of the persons signing the document or witnessing the affixing of the seal must be set out and conform to the requirements of Section 127(1) or (2) as applicable. In particular, a person who witnesses the affixing of a common seal and who is the sole director and sole company secretary of the company must state that next to his or her signature.

( Attending the Meeting ): Completion of a Proxy Form will not prevent individual shareholders from attending the Meeting in person if they wish. Where a shareholder completes and lodges a valid Proxy Form and attends the Meeting in person, then the proxy’s authority to speak and vote for that shareholder is suspended while the shareholder is present at the Meeting.

( Power of Attorney ): Where a Proxy Form or form of appointment of corporate representative is lodged and is executed under power of attorney, the power of attorney must be lodged in like manner as this proxy.

  1. ( Return of Proxy Form ): To vote by proxy, please complete and sign the enclosed Proxy Form and return by:

  2. (a) Post to Triton Minerals Limited, PO Box 1518, West Perth WA 6872; or

  3. (b) facsimile to the Company on facsimile number (+61 8) 9388 1252; or

  4. (c) email to the Company at [email protected]

So that it is received not later than 10:30am (WST) on Tuesday, 27 May 2014.

Proxy form received later than this time will be invalid.
