Section C - Explanatory Memorandum 1. Introduction
This Explanatory Memorandum has been prepared to assist
Shareholders of the Company in understanding the business to
be put to Shareholders for their consideration at the
forthcoming Extraordinary General Meeting on 3 February
2012.
Section 2 of this Explanatory Memorandum sets out the
background to the Resolutions.
This resolution seeks to ratify, in accordance with ASX
Listing Rule 7.4, the issue of Shares in the Company by way
of a placement to sophisticated and professional investors on
13
December 2011 as announced to the ASX on 6 December 2011.
The placement shares:
• raised gross proceeds of $24,000,000 which will be directed
to funding the Company's development program at
Grosvenor West and its broader expansion program at Mabbin
Creek;
• consisted of 18,498,343 Shares in the Company;
• were issued at a price of $1.30 per Share; and
• have the same terms as the Company's existing Shares,
and are quoted on the ASX. Ratification of the issue will go
towards renewing the Company's 15% new issue capacity
in
accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.4.
The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of
Resolution 1.
This resolution seeks approval, in accordance with ASX
Listing Rule 7.1, for the issue of the
Consideration Shares to Wavenet, JD Minerals and Byrt.
As announced to the ASX on 12 December 2011, the Company is
required under the terms of the Asset Sale Agreement to issue
the Consideration Shares to Byrt on the transfer of the
Tenement to the Company.
Byrt assigned his right to be issued part of the
Consideration Shares to Wavenet and JD Minerals pursuant to
deeds of assignment between those parties. The Shares to be
issued to Wavenet and JD Minerals form the Consideration
Shares assigned by Byrt under those deeds of assignment.
Wavenet is a public company listed on the ASX. Its principal
business is the exploration and evaluation of mining
tenements. At the date of this Notice of Meeting, Wavenet has
a relevant interest in approximately 6.8% of the Shares
issued by the Company.
JD Minerals is an Associate of Wavenet. Its business
activities are complementary to
Wavenet's mining tenement exploration and evaluation
business. At the date of the Notice
8
of Meeting, the Company is not aware of any relevant interest
held by JD Minerals in its
Shares.
The Company has made an application to the ASX for a waiver
of the requirement under Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of
the Consideration Shares to be approved by Shareholders. If
the Company's waiver application is granted by the ASX,
[Resolution 2 will be withdrawn by the Company and the
meeting deferred to a later date].
However if the Company's waiver application is delayed
or refused, the information required to be given to
Shareholders for the purposes of approval of the proposed
issue of the Consideration Shares to Wavenet, JD Minerals and
Byrt under Listing Rule 7.1 is set out below.
Wavenet, JD Minerals and Byrt.
Maximum number of securities to be issued:
The maximum number of securities to be issued is 10,540,915
Shares. These Shares will be issued as follows:
(a) 7,600,000 Shares will be issued to
Wavenet.
(b) 2,590,915 Shares will be issued to JD Minerals.
(c) 350,000 Shares will be issued to Byrt.
If Resolution 1 is approved and Resolution 2 is not approved
by Shareholders, the
Company will use its refreshed 15% capacity to issue the
Consideration Shares.
If none of the Resolutions are approved by Shareholders or
the waiver application discussed above is refused by the ASX,
the Company will be unable to issue the Consideration Shares
and may be liable to pay damages for failing to comply with
its obligations under the Asset Sale Agreement.
The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of
Resolution 2.
