5. APPROVAL TO ISSUE MEDEA NATURAL RESOURCES SHARES Resolution 4
5.1 Background
The Company has engaged Medea Natural Resources Limited (Medea Natural
Resources), a capital advisory and structuring firm with its registered office in
London, United Kingdom. Medea Natural Resources will undertake structuring work
for the Company on all debt and structured finance options for the proposed
development of the Adidi-Kanga Gold Project, as well as other potential
opportunities. The Company is seeking approval to issue 10,000,000 Shares as a
signing and commencement fee (Medea Natural Resources Shares). This payment
is in lieu of any monthly or ongoing retainer arrangement that is typical for these
engagements
The Company considers that the fees payable for the services rendered under the
engagement of Medea Natural Resources would typically range between
GBP180,000 to GBP225,000, based on a monthly retainer of between GBP20,000
and GBP25,000 and an expectation the engagement would extend for a minimum
of 9 months. Accordingly, this would result in an issue price if converted of between
A$0.32 and A$0.039 per share issued and based on a AUD/GBP exchange rate of
0.565.
Medea Natural Resources is not a Related Party of the Company.
5.2 Listing Rules information requirements
Listing Rule 7.1 provides, in summary, that a listed company may not issue equity

Natural Resources Shares will be issued for nil cash consideration and no
funds will be raised through the issue of the Shares.
