This Explanatory Statement forms part of and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Notice of Meeting.

2. 2018 ANNUAL REPORT

In accordance with the requirements of the Company’s Constitution and the Corporations Act, the 2018 Annual Report will be tabled at the annual general meeting. Shareholders will have the opportunity of discussing the Annual Report and making comments and raising queries in relation to the Report. There is no requirement for a formal resolution on this item.

Representatives from the Company’s auditors, Rothsay, will be present to take shareholders’ questions and comments about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the audit report.

Annual Report Online

Shareholders who have not elected to receive a hard copy of the Annual Report can access the report on the company’s website at www.metalsearch.com.au.

3. ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT – Resolution 1

3.1 General

Pursuant to section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act, the Company is required to put the Remuneration Report to the vote of Shareholders. The Directors’ Report for the year ended 30 June 2018 contains the Remuneration Report which sets out the remuneration policy for the Company and reports on the remuneration arrangements in place for the Directors and Key Management Personnel.

Resolution 1 is advisory only and does not bind the Directors of the Company. Of itself, a failure of Shareholders to pass Resolution 1 will not require the Directors to alter any of the arrangements in the Remuneration Report.

A reasonable opportunity will be provided for discussion of the remuneration report at the Annual General Meeting.

3.2 Voting consequences

If at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report in two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of an extraordinary general meeting to consider the appointment of directors of the Company ( Spill Resolution ) at the second annual general meeting.

If more than 50% of shareholders vote in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene the extraordinary general meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting.

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

6. RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE – SHARES (1 JUNE 2018) – Resolution 4

6.1 General

On 1 June 2018, the Company announced the completion of a capital raising of $399,050 through the issue of 39,905,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.01 per Share.

The Company issued the Shares without prior Shareholder approval out of its 15% annual placement capacity.

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

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1) those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

By ratifying this issue, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

6.2 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.4

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to the ratification:

(a) Number of securities issued

39,905,000 Shares.

(b) Price at which securities were issued

(c) The terms of the securities

(e) The use (or intended use) of the funds raised

The funds raised from the issue will be used for continued evaluation of the Company’s Kraaipan Project in Botswana and further identifying and acquiring advanced projects, specifically targeting project opportunities in African countries. Specifically, proceeds of the capital raising will be used to maintain its evaluation and exploration work on its Kraaipan Project in Botswana; accelerate project generation activities; and general working capital purposes.

7. RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE – SHARES (25 JULY 2018) – Resolution 5

7.1 General

On 19 July 2018, the Company announced the intention to raise an amount of $220,000 through the issue of 22,000,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.01 per Share. The issue of Shares was completed on 25 July 2018.

The Company issued the Shares without prior Shareholder approval out of its 15% annual placement capacity.

Resolution 5 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of those Shares.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. It provides that where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (and provided that the previous issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1) those securities will be deemed to have been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

By ratifying this issue, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

(d) The basis on which allottees were determined

The Shares were issued to sophisticated and professional investors pursuant to section 708 of the Corporations Act. No related party participated in the allotment of the Shares.

(e) The use (or intended use) of the funds raised

The funds raised from the issue will be used for continued evaluation of the Company’s Kraaipan Project in Botswana and further identifying and acquiring advanced projects, specifically targeting project opportunities in African countries. Specifically, proceeds of the capital raising will be used to maintain its evaluation and exploration work on its Kraaipan Project in Botswana; accelerate project generation activities; and general working capital purposes.

8. APPROVAL OF 10% PLACEMENT CAPACITY – Resolution 6

8.1 General

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an Eligible Entity may seek Shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to allow it to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued capital over a period up to 12 months after the annual general meeting ( 10% Placement Capacity ).

The Company is an Eligible Entity.

If Shareholders approve Resolution 6, the number of Equity Securities the Eligible Entity may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out in Section 8.2 below).

The effect of Resolution 6 will be to allow the Directors to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of the Company’s fully paid ordinary securities on issue under the 10% Placement Capacity during the period up to 12 months after the Meeting, without subsequent Shareholder approval and without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity granted under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 6 is a special resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 6 for it to be passed.

8.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A enables an Eligible Entity to seek shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to issue Equity Securities in addition to those under the Eligible Entity’s 15% annual placement capacity.

An Eligible Entity is one that, as at the date of the relevant annual general meeting:

  • (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 (at the date of this Explanatory Statement) of $4,809,101.

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 the Shares (ASX Code: MSE).

The exact number of Equity Securities that the Company may issue under an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated according to the following formula:

Metalsearch Limited

Page 6

(A x D) – E

Where:

  • A is the number of Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

  • (i) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2;

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

  • (iii) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months with approval of holders of Shares under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.4; and

  • (iv) less the number of Shares cancelled in the previous 12 months.

  • D is 10%.

E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under ASX 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 holders of Ordinary Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.

8.3 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to this Resolution 6:

(a) Minimum Price

The minimum price at which the Equity Securities may be issued is 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 ASX 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 ASX trading days of the date in Section 8.3(a)(i), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

(b) Date of Issue

The Equity Securities may be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity commencing on the date of the Meeting and expiring on the first to occur of the following:

  • (i) 12 months after the date of this Meeting; and

  • (ii) the date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under ASX Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of the Company’s activities) or 11.2 (disposal of the Company’s main undertaking) (after which date, an approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A ceases to be valid).

Metalsearch Limited

Page 7

(c) Risk of voting dilution

Any issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue.

If Resolution 6 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 dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A(2), on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the number of Equity Securities currently on issue.

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.

* 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:

  1. The current shares on issue are the Shares on issue as at 15 October 2018.

  2. The issue price set out above is the last closing price of the Shares on the ASX prior to the date of this Notice.

  3. The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity.

  4. The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

  5. 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.

  6. This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

Metalsearch Limited

Page 8

Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:

  • (i) the market price for the Company’s Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and

  • (ii) the Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Shares on the date of issue.

(e) Purpose of Issue under 10% Placement Capacity

The Company may issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for the following purposes:

  • (i) as cash consideration in which case the Company intends to use funds raised for exploration and evaluation of the company’s Kraaipan Project and general working capital; or

  • (ii) as non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new assets and investments, in such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by listing Rule 7.1A.3.

(f)

Allocation under the 10% Placement Capacity

The Company’s allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity. The identity of the allottees of Equity Securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to a number of factors, including:

  • (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; and

  • (v) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).

The allottees under the 10% Placement Capacity have not been determined as at the date of this Notice but may include existing Shareholders and/or new investors who are not related parties or associates of a related party of the Company.

Further, if the Company is successful in acquiring new assets or investments, it is possible that the allottees under the 10% Placement Capacity will be the vendors of the new assets or investments.

(g) Previous Approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

The Company previously obtained approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 30 November 2017.

In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A.6, the following information is provided to shareholders regarding the equity securities issued in the previous 12 months preceding the date of the Annual General Meeting.
