Resolution 5: Approval of additional 10% placement capacity
Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an eligible entity may seek shareholder approval by special resolution at its AGM to issue equity securities equivalent to an additional 10% of the number of ordinary securities on issue over a period of 12 months after the AGM (10% Placement Capacity). This is in addition to the existing 15% placement capacity permitted by Listing Rule 7.1.
If shareholders approve Resolution 5, the number of equity securities the Company may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out below).
An eligible entity is one that, as at the date of the relevant AGM:
-
a) is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index; and
-
b) has a maximum market capitalisation (excluding restricted securities and securities quoted on a deferred settlement basis) of $300,000,000.
The Company is an eligible entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a current market capitalisation of less than $300,000,000.
Any equity securities issued must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted equity securities. The Company currently has one class of quoted equity securities on issue, being fully paid ordinary shares (Shares) (ASX code: WAA).
While the Company does not have any immediate plans to issue equity securities, the purposes for which equity securities may be issued pursuant to Resolution 5 may include the raising of capital to facilitate further investment opportunities.
The number of equity securities that the Company may issue under the approval sought by Resolution 5 will be calculated in accordance with the following formula as set out in Listing Rule 7.1A.2:
(A x D) – E
-
iii. plus the number of Shares issued in the 12 months under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4; and
-
iv. less the number of Shares cancelled in the 12 months.
D = 10%.
E = 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 issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of the shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.
Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.3A Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to Resolution 5:
-
a) Minimum Price: under the Listing Rules, the minimum price at which the equity securities may be issued is 75% of the volume weighted average market price of equity securities in that class, calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:
-
i. the date on which the price at which the equity securities are to be issued is agreed; 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 voting dilution: shareholders should be aware there is a risk of economic and voting dilution that may result from an issue of equity securities under the 10% Placement Capacity, including the risk that:
-
i. the market price for equity securities in that class may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting where approval is being sought; and
-
ii. the equity securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those equity securities on the date of issue.
Any issue of equity securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will dilute the interests of shareholders who do not receive any equity securities under the issue.
Where:
A = the number of fully paid Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement to issue:
-
i. plus the number of Shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;
-
ii. plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the 12 months;

If Resolution 5 is approved by shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of equity securities available under the 10% Placement Capacity, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below.
The table below shows the potential dilution of existing shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in Listing Rule 7.1A.2, on the basis of the market price of the Shares and the number of Shares on issue as at 12 October 2018. The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 10% Placement Capacity.

|
| $5,077,295 $10,154,590 $20,309,180 |
Notes:
-
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 above uses the following assumptions:
-
i. The current Shares on issue are the Shares on issue as at 12 October 2018.
-
ii. The issue price set out above is the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 12 October 2018.
-
iii. The Company issues the maximum possible number of equity securities under the 10% Placement Capacity and no options on issue are exercised.
-
iv. The Company has not issued any equity securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
-
v. The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular shareholder will be subject to. All shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.
-
vi. This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under Listing Rule 7.1.
-
vii. The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.

-
i. as cash consideration in which case the Company intends to use funds raised for investment purposes in line with the Company’s investment policy; or
-
ii. as non-cash consideration for investments. In such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by Listing Rule 7.1A.3.
-
e) Allocation under the 10% Placement Capacity: the allottees of the equity securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been
determined. However, the allottees of equity securities could consist of current shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company.
The Company will determine the allottees at the time of the issue under the 10% Placement Capacity, having regard to the following factors:
-
i. the purpose of the issue;
-
ii. alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue or other offer where existing shareholders may participate;
-
iii. the effect of the issue of the equity securities on the control of the Company;
-
iv. the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company;
-
v. prevailing market conditions; and
-
vi. advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).
-
f) Previous approval under Listing Rule 7.1A: the Company obtained shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at the 2017 AGM held on 29 November 2017. In the 12 months since the date of that AGM, the Company issued a total of 5,473,449 Shares which represents 13.6% of the total number of equity securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

Voting exclusion
A voting exclusion statement is included under Resolution 5 in this Notice of Meeting. As at the date of this Notice, the Company has not invited any existing shareholder to participate in an issue of equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A. Therefore, no existing shareholders will be excluded from voting on Resolution 5.
Resolution 5 is a special resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by shareholders present or by proxy and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 5 for it to be passed.
The Directors support the additional 10% placement capacity and unanimously recommend that shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5.
