Introduction As Shareholders are aware, Marathon Resources Limited (the Company) has been investigating potential targets for acquisition since 2012. During that time, the Board has considered some 300 potential projects, predominantly in the minerals and energy sectors. The Board has identified ARP TriEnergy Pty Ltd (ARP TriEnergy), which owns the Leigh Creek Energy Project (LCEP), as a suitable target for acquisition, which would reposition the Company as an energy and minerals explorer and developer. On 18 November 2014, ARP TriEnergy was issued a petroleum exploration licence (PEL 650) on which the LCEP is situated. On 27 April 2015, ARP TriEnergy was issued 2 minerals exploration licences which are prospective for coal (EL 5596 and EL 5597). ARP TriEnergy is also the applicant in respect of 5 additional petroleum exploration licence applications in South Australia. The LCEP aims to produce synthetic natural gas (syngas) via in situ gasification (ISG) for sale to major gas users in the eastern states of Australia and as feedstock for power generation and fertiliser and explosives production. As announced to ASX on 3 March 2015, the Company entered into a Share Sale Agreement to acquire, subject to Shareholder approval and the satisfaction of certain other conditions, 100% of the issued capital in ARP TriEnergy in consideration for the issue of 138,311,683 Shares in the Company to the Vendors in proportion to their holdings in ARP TriEnergy (the Acquisition). In order to facilitate the ongoing appraisal drilling work on PEL 650, the Company has entered into an Interim Funding Agreement with ARP TriEnergy pursuant to which the Company has agreed to provide funding to ARP TriEnergy, between the date of the General Meeting and Completion of the Acquisition, for working capital purposes and to allow ARP TriEnergy to undertake certain appraisal drilling activities. Completion of the Acquisition is subject to various conditions and is expected to occur on or about the date on which the Company receives confirmation from ASX that it has re-complied with Chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules (please refer to section 4 below). Following Completion, the Company will procure that ARP TriEnergy enter into a Royalty Deed in relation to all tenements held by ARP TriEnergy, pursuant to which ARP TriEnergy will have an obligation to pay royalties to the trustees of the South Australia ISG Trust No 1., the beneficiaries of which trust are the Vendors. Detailed information relating to the Acquisition is set out in the Notice of General Meeting and Explanatory Memorandum dated 24 April 2015 (Notice of Meeting), which is included as Appendix 1 to this Information Memorandum (please refer to section 3 below), and more particularly in the following sections of the Notice of Meeting: Information Section(s) of the Notice of Meeting Company 2, 3 and 4 ARP TriEnergy and LCEP 5 Acquisition (referred to as the "Transaction" in the Notice of 2, 3 and 4 Meeting) Key terms of the Share Sale Agreement 2.2 Key terms of the Interim Funding Agreement 2.4 Key terms of the Royalty Deed 2.3 Gas industry in Australia 5.6 Regulatory regime in South Australia 5.7 Key risks associated with the Acquisition 6 Doc ID 290159333/v1 7 2. Purpose of this Information Memorandum The Acquisition will result in a significant change in the nature and scale of the Company's activities, which requires the approval of its Shareholders under Listing Rule 11.1.2, on the following basis: • As Shareholders would be aware based on the Company's disclosure to the market over the past 18 months, the Company's current business activities comprise the ongoing investigation of potential projects for investment (including both minerals and energy projects). During that time, the Company has undertaken initial exploratory and testing work on a number of those projects to better evaluate the prospects for a potential investment. • By contrast, the Acquisition will involve the Company acquiring an exploration project with tenements and tenement applications relating to both energy and minerals exploration.

  • 6 the Fourth Decade 1990
    6 The Fourth Decade 1990 - 2000 – facing the challenges in the 90s In December 1991 Paul Keating replaced Bob Hawke as Prime Minister of Australia and held the position until March 1996. The Federal election in 1996 was won by the Liberal Party under the leadership of John Howard who remained in office until November 2007. The inflation of the 70s and the recession of the 0s gave way to a period of relative economic prosperity and stability. Despite this, major changes driven by a new Board and Executive Director at ANSTO would have consequences for AINSE. The ANSTO Board and its new Executive Director, Dr David Cook, who was appointed on 2 May 1988, had commenced the process of implementing major change in this organisation. As part of this process, ANSTO quickly commenced realigning its research areas and mode of operation and was quite creative in doing so. In 1989 ANSTO purchased a Tandem Accelerator from Rutgers University in the USA at a total cost, with support equipment, of $2.3 million68. The creativeness in this respect was not so much the purpose for which the instrument would be used – initially for 14C dating – rather that the accelerator was purchased second-hand for little more than the excavation, transportation and installation costs. It was announced that the accelerator will be used for the establishment of a national radiocarbon dating service for applications in geology, and oceanography69. Barely two years after the announcement of the purchase of the accelerator, the Australian National Tandem Accelerator for Applied Research (ANTARES) was officially opened at ANSTO in September 1991 by the Minister for Science and Technology, the Honourable Ross Free70.
