In accordance with section 249L of the Corporations Act, members are advised that:
•
each member has a right to appoint a proxy;
•
the proxy need not be a member of the Company; and
•
a member who is entitled to cast 2 or more votes may appoint 2 proxies and may specify the proportion or number of
votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If the member appoints 2 proxies and the appointment does not specify the
proportion or number of the member’s votes, then in accordance with section 249X(3) of the Corporations Act, each
proxy may exercise one-half of the votes.
New sections 250BB and 250BC of the Corporations Act came into effect on 1 August 2011 and apply to voting by proxy on or
after that date. Shareholders and their proxies should be aware of these changes to the Corporations Act, as they will apply to

if proxy holders vote, they must cast all directed proxies as directed; and
any directed proxies which are not voted will automatically default to the Chair, who must vote the proxies as directed.
Further details on these changes is set out below.
Proxy vote if appointment specifies way to vote
Section 250BB(1) of the Corporations Act provides that an appointment of a proxy may specify the way the proxy is to vote on a
particular resolution and, if it does:
the proxy need not vote on a show of hands, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed);
and
if the proxy has 2 or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on the resolution – the proxy must not vote
on a show of hands; and
if the proxy is the chair of the meeting at which the resolution is voted on – the proxy must vote on a poll, and must
vote that way (i.e. as directed); and
if the proxy is not the chair – the proxy need not vote on the poll, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that
way (i.e. as directed).
Transfer of non-chair proxy to chair in certain circumstances
Section 250BC of the Corporations Act provides that, if:
an appointment of a proxy specifies the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution at a meeting of the
Company's members; and
the appointed proxy is not the chair of the meeting; and
at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded on the resolution; and
either of the following applies:
o
the proxy is not recorded as attending the meeting;
o
the proxy does not vote on the resolution,
the chair of the meeting is taken, before voting on the resolution closes, to have been appointed as the proxy for the purposes of
voting on the resolution at the meeting.

The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in
deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions in the Notice of Meeting.

report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2015 together with the declaration of the directors, the directors’
report, the Remuneration Report and the auditor’s report.
The Company will not provide a hard copy of the Company’s annual financial report to Shareholders unless specifically
requested to do so. The Company’s annual financial report is available on its website at www.celsiuscoal.com.au.
2.
RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT
2.1
General
The Corporations Act requires that at a listed company’s annual general meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report be
adopted must be put to the shareholders. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the company or the
directors of the company.
The remuneration report sets out the company’s remuneration arrangements for the directors and senior management of the
company. The remuneration report is part of the directors’ report contained in the annual financial report of the company for a
financial year.
The chair of the meeting must allow a reasonable opportunity for its shareholders to ask questions about or make comments on
the remuneration report at the annual general meeting.
2.2
Voting consequences
Under changes to the Corporations Act which came into effect on 1 July 2011, a company is required to put to its shareholders
a resolution proposing the calling of another meeting of shareholders to consider the appointment of directors of the company
(Spill Resolution) if, at consecutive annual general meetings, at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report
resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report and at the first of those annual general meetings a Spill
Resolution was not put to vote. If required, the Spill Resolution must be put to vote at the second of those annual general
meetings.
If more than 50% of votes cast are in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene a shareholder meeting (Spill
Meeting) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting. All of the directors of the company who were in office when the
directors' report (as included in the company’s annual financial report for the previous financial year was approved, other than
the managing director of the company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand
for re-election at the Spill Meeting.
Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election as directors of the company is approved will be the
directors of the company.
2.3
Previous voting results
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.
2.4
Proxy voting restrictions
Shareholders appointing a proxy for this Resolution should note the following:
If you appoint a member of the Key Management Personnel (other than the Chair) whose remuneration details are included in
the Remuneration Report, or a Closely Related Party of such a member as your proxy
You must direct your proxy how to vote on this Resolution. Undirected proxies granted to these persons will not be voted and
will not be counted in calculating the required majority if a poll is called on this Resolution.
If you appoint the Chair as your proxy (where he/she is also a member of the Key Management Personnel whose remuneration
details are included in the Remuneration Report, or a Closely Related Party of such a member).
You do not need to direct your proxy how to vote on this Resolution. However, if you do not direct the Chair how to vote, you
must mark the acknowledgement on the Proxy Form to expressly authorise the Chair to exercise his/her discretion in exercising
your proxy even though this Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of Key Management Personnel.
If you appoint any other person as your proxy. You do not need to direct your proxy how to vote on this Resolution, and you do
not need to mark any further acknowledgement on the Proxy Form.
3.
RESOLUTION 2 – RE-ELECTION OF ALISTAIR MUIR
Clause 13.2 of the Constitution requires that at the Company's annual general meeting in every year, one-third of the Directors
for the time being, or, if their number is not a multiple of 3, then the number nearest one-third (rounded upwards in case of
doubt), shall retire from office, provided always that no Director (except a Managing Director) shall hold office for a period in
excess of 3 years, or until the third annual general meeting following his or her appointment, whichever is the longer, without
submitting himself or herself for re-election.
The Directors to retire at an annual general meeting are those who have been longest in office since their last election, but, as
between persons who became Directors on the same day, those to retire shall (unless they otherwise agree among themselves)
be determined by drawing lots.
A Director who retires by rotation under clause 13.2 of the Constitution is eligible for re-election. The Company currently has
four Directors and accordingly one must retire. Mr Alistair Muir, the director longest in office since his last election, will retire by
rotation at the Annual General Meeting and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election.
Mr Muir was appointed to this role on 6 May 2013 and is considered to be an independent director by the Board.

have primarily been in the bulk commodity areas of steaming/coking coal and iron ore but with some significant experience in
the sedimentary hosted uranium environment. Mr. Muir's coal experience extends over some 17 years initially working with
major steaming coal development projects at the feasibility and operational level and later in a consulting capacity looking at a
number of eastern seaboard steaming and coking coal projects both open pit and underground. His experience extends to all
aspects of mine evaluation including optimisation of mining method, environmental, geotechnical, hydrogeological and financial
evaluation. Mr. Muir is well versed in managing the regulatory environment including occupational health and safety. He has a
strong track record in effective community engagement with a major focus on environmental sustainability. Mr. Muir has
considerable experience in the building and management of a multi-disciplinary team in overseas environments. With recent
MBA studies he has some of the latest thinking on organisational culture and team development. He is a member of the
AusIMM and is appropriately experienced and credentialed to be recognized as being a competent person for JORC purposes.
Mr. Muir has a Bachelor of Applied Science in Geology and a Graduate Diploma in Management with an MBA in progress.
Mr Muir, will retire in accordance with clause 13.2 of the Constitution and ASX Listing Rule 14.4 and being eligible, seeks
election from Shareholders.
The other Directors of the Company unanimously recommend the re-election of Mr Muir.

RESOLUTIONS 3 TO 6 – RATIFICATION OF SHARE ISSUES
4.1
General
During the past 12 months, the Company entered into agreements with various creditors and ex-employees to issue shares in
lieu of payment for amounts owed. These share issues occurred on the following dates:
December 2014 – 122,393,512 shares issued
7 May 2015 – 104,315,581 shares issued
21 May 2015 – 111,019,842 shares issued
8 September 2015 – 12,077,300 shares issued
The above shares were all issued at $0.0009 utilising the placement capacity available to the Company under ASX Listing Rule
7.1 and 7.1A
Resolutions 3 to 6 seek Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Shares.
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue during any 12
month period any equity securities, or other securities with rights of conversion to equity (such as an option), if the number of
those securities exceeds 15% of the number of securities in the same class on issue at the commencement of that 12 month
period.
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an eligible Company may seek the approval of the Company’s holders of its ordinary
securities by special resolution passed at an annual general meeting to have an additional capacity of 10%. This approval was
sought and obtained by the Company at the 2014 annual general meeting on 28 November 2014.
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 7.1A (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 under ASX Listing Rule 7.4, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up
to the 15% threshold set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.
4.2
