Oilex Exploration Update Mon, 6 Sep 2010 13:49:00 +1000 1 day, 12 hours ago
6th September 2010 Company Announcements Office ASX Limited 4th Floor 20 Bridge Street Sydney NSW 2000 SIGNIFICANT RESERVES IDENTIFIED AT CAMBAY FIELD, INDIA Summary • Cambay Field Reserves and Contingent Resources significantly upgraded • Successful completion of detailed technical studies to unlock potential of “tight” reservoirs using leading-edge North American “shale gas” industry technology • Studies indicate a very good correlation between the Cambay Eocene reservoirs and the Eagle Ford and Haynesville “tight/shale” plays in the USA • Drilling and production tests through the first half of 2011 Oilex Ltd (“Oilex”, ASX: OEX, AIM: OEX) an oil & gas exploration and production company listed on AIM and ASX, is pleased to announce a significant upgrade to its Reserves and Contingent Resources for the Cambay Field low permeability (“tight”) Eocene reservoirs in Gujarat, India. This follows a nine month program of extensive technical studies on the Cambay Field “tight” reservoirs using proprietary low permeability reservoir technologies derived from similar “tight/shale gas” projects in North America. The following summary of Reserves (net recoverable to Oilex’s 45% interest, unaudited) is provided: • P90 – 248 billion cubic feet (BCF) of gas and 11 million barrels (MMbbls) of condensate • P50 – 384 BCF of gas and 17 MMbbls of condensate • P10 – 591 BCF of gas and 27 MMbbls of condensate In its evaluation of the reserves and resources the Company was advised by two North American companies; NuTech Energy Alliance (“NuTech”) a leader in advanced petrophysical, geological and fracture stimulation solutions for “tight” and “shale gas” reservoirs, and Morning Star LLC (“Morning Star”), a worldwide petroleum consulting group with expertise in reserve certification of “tight” reservoir projects.
The studies indicate a very good correlation between the Cambay Eocene reservoirs and the Eagle Ford and Haynesville reservoirs, two of the most prolific “tight/shale gas” plays in North America. The Cambay Eocene reservoirs that have been analysed display relatively good porosity for "tight' reservoirs” and with a gross thickness of 200 to 500 metres these zones are substantially thicker than most North American “tight/shale” reservoirs. The studies have modelled Estimated Ultimate Recoveries (EUR’s) of between 6 and 11 BCF gas with associated condensate per well.
Forward Plan Oilex expects to submit data in October 2010 for independent reserves certification in early 2011. Oilex will, subject to Joint Venture and Indian Government approval, further evaluate the “tight” reservoir potential with drilling and production testing ....

Oilex Identifies Significant Reserves at Cambay Field, India
Monday, September 06, 2010
• Cambay Field Reserves and Contingent Resources significantly upgraded
• Successful completion of detailed technical studies to unlock potential of 'tight' reservoirs using leading-edge North American 'shale gas' industry technology
• Studies indicate a very good correlation between the Cambay Eocene reservoirs and the Eagle Ford and Haynesville 'tight/shale' plays in the USA
• Drilling and production tests through the first half of 2011
Oilex Ltd, an oil & gas exploration and production company listed on AIM and ASX, announces a significant upgrade to its Reserves and Contingent Resources for the Cambay Field low permeability ('tight') Eocene reservoirs in Gujarat, India. This follows a nine month program of extensive technical studies on the Cambay Field 'tight' reservoirs using proprietary low permeability reservoir technologies derived from similar 'tight/shale gas' projects in North America.
The following summary of Reserves (net recoverable to Oilex's 45% interest, unaudited) is provided:
• P90 - 248 billion cubic feet (BCF) of gas and 11 million barrels (MMbbls) of condensate
• P50 - 384 BCF of gas and 17 MMbbls of condensate
• P10 - 591 BCF of gas and 27 MMbbls of condensate
In its evaluation of the reserves and resources the Company was advised by two North American companies; NuTech Energy Alliance ('NuTech') a leader in advanced petrophysical, geological and fracture stimulation solutions for 'tight' and 'shale gas' reservoirs, and Morning Star LLC ('Morning Star'), a worldwide petroleum consulting group with expertise in reserve certification of 'tight' reservoir projects.
The studies indicate a very good correlation between the Cambay Eocene reservoirs and the Eagle Ford and Haynesville reservoirs, two of the most prolific 'tight/shale gas' plays in North America. The Cambay Eocene reservoirs that have been analysed display relatively good porosity for "tight' reservoirs' and with a gross thickness of 200 to 500 metres these zones are substantially thicker than most North American 'tight/shale' reservoirs. The studies have modelled Estimated Ultimate Recoveries (EUR's) of between 6 and 11 BCF gas with associated condensate per well.
Forward Plan
Oilex expects to submit data in October 2010 for independent reserves certification in early 2011.
Oilex will, subject to Joint Venture and Indian Government approval, further evaluate the 'tight' reservoir potential with drilling and production testing using modern, multi-stage fracture stimulation technology. These operations are expected to continue through the first half of 2011 as equipment and materials become available.
Oilex's Managing Director, Dr Bruce McCarthy (ex-Cairn Energy), who has been based in India to lead the 'tight' reservoir project, said:
'The Company has renewed its focus on India and has made significant progress in unlocking the potential of the Cambay 'tight' Eocene reservoirs that extend over the 40,000 acre contract area. Key to this success has been applying leading-edge North American tight/shale gas industry expertise and proven technology to the extensive database on the Cambay Eocene reservoirs which includes: modern 3D seismic, wire line logs from 36 wells, drilling data, production and well test data and cores.'
'Two years ago Oilex conducted well tests on the Eocene section that flowed hydrocarbons to surface from conventional vertical wells, a very encouraging result for 'tight' reservoirs. Oilex now intends to apply horizontal drilling and multi-stage fracture stimulation technology to improve on the flow rates and confirm commerciality of the Eocene tight reservoirs.'
Oilex (45%) operates the Cambay Field Production Sharing Contract on behalf of its Joint Venture with Gujarat State Petroleum Corporation Ltd (55%, 'GSPC'). GSPC is India's most active State Government-owned oil and gas company.

Shares in Oilex Ltd jumped by more than 32 per cent after the oil and gas producer reported upgraded reserves and contingent resources for "tight" reservoirs at its Cambay Field in India.
Oilex shares closed up 4.5 cents at 18.5 cents, a level not seen since January 20 this year.
Oilex said reserves attributable to its 45 per cent net working interest in the field totaled 248 billion cubic feet (bcf) of natural gas and 11 million barrels (mmbbls) of condensate.
These were in the P90 category - the highest classification under Australia's oil reporting code.
Oilex said P90 contingent resources, again attributable to its 45 per cent net working interest in the field, amounted to 186 bcf of natural gas and eight mmbbls of condensate, which is a form of light crude oil.
Reserves have been "proved up" more than resources.
The company plans to unlock the potential of the tight reservoirs by utilising cutting-edge technology used by North America's shale gas sector.

UPDATE 1-Oilex soars 153 pct after India reserves upgrade
LONDON, Sept 6 (Reuters) - Oil and gas exploration company Oilex said by applying new technology to its exploration block in India it has significantly upgraded its gas reserves, sending its shares soaring by as much as 153 percent.
Australia-based Oilex said on Monday it estimates the Cambay field in Gujarat in the West of India holds 248 billion cubic feet of gas with a 90 percent certainty of being produced, up from the negligible amounts previously cited.
Shares in Oilex gained 131 percent to 18.5 pence at 0835 GMT, their highest level since last November, making the company the biggest riser in London, and valuing it at about 41.2 million pounds ($63.7 million).
The company drilled a number of wells on the field between 2006 and 2008 and found hydrocarbons but they were in tight reservoirs which meant they were not at that time commercial.
By applying technology used by companies extracting shale gas in North America, Oilex believes the block now has significant commercial gas reserves.
Oilex said it will in October submit the data for independent reserves certification and then look to develop a drilling plan for 2011.

Australia's Oilex on Monday said it has made huge natural gas discovery in Gujarat that may hold over 1.5 Trillion cubic feet of recoverable reserves. Industry estimates put the total resource base or inplace reserves in the Cambay basin discoveries near the town of Khambat, 160-km south of Ahmedabad [ Images ], at between 20-30 Trillion cubic feet, almost equivalent to inplace reserves of Reliance Industries' [ Get Quote ] eastern offshore KG-D6 fields.
However, KG-D6 fields have a higher recovery factor with almost 12 Tcf of gas likely to be produced over life of the field while in Oilex's case only 1.5 Tcf can be produced as the reservior is 'tight' with low permeability.
Oilex had drilled many wells on the Cambay Field and it announced "a significant upgrade to its Reserves and Contingent Resources" based on evaluation by North American consultants NuTech Energy Alliance and Morning Star LLC.
In a press statement, Oilex said the Cambay Field may hold 853 billion cubic feet of Reserves Justified for Development plus another 720 bcf of Contingent Resources, totaling the recoverable reserves at 1.5 Tcf.
Oilex holds 45 per cent interest in the Cambay Field while Gujarat State Petroleum Corp holds the rest 55 per cent. The field was awarded to GSPC and Canada's [ Images ] Niko Resources in pre-New Exploration Licensing Policy rounds in the 1990s and Oilex steped-in upon exit of Niko.
"This (reserve estimation) follows a nine month program of extensive technical studies on the Cambay Field 'tight' reservoirs using proprietary low permeability reservoir technologies derived from similar 'tight/shale gas' projects in North America," Oilex said.
Besides gas, the field also holds 31 million barrels of condensate.
"The estimates have not been endorsed by the Government of India [ Images ] or the (oil regulator) Directorate General of Hydrocarbons," it said.
Oilex said it will submit data next month for independent reserves certification in early 2011.
"In its evaluation of the reserves and resources Oilex was advised by two North American companies - NuTech Energy Alliance, a leader in advanced petrophysical, geological and fracture stimulation solutions for 'tight' and shale gas reservoirs, and Morning Star LLC, a worldwide petroleum consulting group with expertise in reserve certification of 'tight' reservoir projects," the statement said.

Oilex announced a significant upgrade to its Reserves and Contingent Resources for the Cambay Field low permeability ("tight") Eocene reservoirs in Gujarat, India. This follows a nine month program of extensive technical studies on the Cambay Field "tight" reservoirs using proprietary low permeability reservoir technologies derived from similar "tight/shale gas" projects in North America.
The following summary of Reserves (net recoverable to Oilex's 45% interest, unaudited) is provided:
* P90 - 248 billion cubic feet (BCF) of gas and 11 million barrels (MMbbls) of condensate
* P50 - 384 BCF of gas and 17 MMbbls of condensate
* P10 - 591 BCF of gas and 27 MMbbls of condensate
In its evaluation of the reserves and resources the Company was advised by two North American companies; NuTech Energy Alliance ("NuTech") a leader in advanced petrophysical, geological and fracture stimulation solutions for "tight" and "shale gas" reservoirs, and Morning Star LLC ("Morning Star"), a worldwide petroleum consulting group with expertise in reserve certification of "tight" reservoir projects.
The studies indicate a very good correlation between the Cambay Eocene reservoirs and the Eagle Ford and Haynesville reservoirs, two of the most prolific "tight/shale gas" plays in North America. The Cambay Eocene reservoirs that have been analyzed display relatively good porosity for "tight reservoirs" and with a gross thickness of 200 to 500 meters these zones are substantially thicker than most North American "tight/shale" reservoirs. The studies have modeled Estimated Ultimate Recoveries (EUR's) of between 6 and 11
BCF gas with associated condensate per well.
Forward Plan
Oilex expects to submit data in October 2010 for independent reserves certification in early 2011.
Oilex will, subject to Joint Venture and Indian Government approval, further evaluate the "tight" reservoir potential with drilling and production testing using modern, multi-stage fracture stimulation technology. These operations are expected to continue through the first half of 2011 as equipment and materials become available.

Oilex's Managing Director, Dr Bruce McCarthy (ex-Cairn Energy), who has been based in India to lead the "tight" reservoir project, said, "The Company has renewed its focus on India and has made significant progress in unlocking the potential of the Cambay "tight" Eocene reservoirs that extend over the 40,000 acre contract area. Key to this success has been applying leading-edge North
American tight/shale gas industry expertise and proven technology to the extensive database on the Cambay Eocene reservoirs which includes: modern 3D seismic, wire line logs from 36 wells, drilling data, production and well test data and cores."
"Two years ago Oilex conducted well tests on the Eocene section that flowed hydrocarbons to surface from conventional vertical wells, a very encouraging result for "tight" reservoirs. Oilex now intends to apply horizontal drilling and multi-stage fracture stimulation technology to improve on the flow rates and confirm commerciality of the Eocene tight reservoirs."
Oilex will commission an independent reserves certification after completion of further technical studies, well designs and well locations, in October, 2010.
Oilex (45%) operates the Cambay Field Production Sharing Contract on behalf of its Joint Venture with Gujarat State Petroleum Corporation Ltd (55%, "GSPC"). GSPC is India's most active State Government-owned oil and gas company. It is a large vertically integrated energy company with assets across India and overseas.

Oilex announced a significant upgrade to its Reserves and Contingent Resources for the Cambay Field low permeability ("tight") Eocene reservoirs in Gujarat, India. This follows a nine month program of extensive technical studies on the Cambay Field "tight" reservoirs using proprietary low permeability reservoir technologies derived from similar "tight/shale gas" projects in North America.
The following summary of Reserves (net recoverable to Oilex's 45% interest, unaudited) is provided:
* P90 - 248 billion cubic feet (BCF) of gas and 11 million barrels (MMbbls) of condensate
* P50 - 384 BCF of gas and 17 MMbbls of condensate
* P10 - 591 BCF of gas and 27 MMbbls of condensate
In its evaluation of the reserves and resources the Company was advised by two North American companies; NuTech Energy Alliance ("NuTech") a leader in advanced petrophysical, geological and fracture stimulation solutions for "tight" and "shale gas" reservoirs, and Morning Star LLC ("Morning Star"), a worldwide petroleum consulting group with expertise in reserve certification of "tight" reservoir projects.
The studies indicate a very good correlation between the Cambay Eocene reservoirs and the Eagle Ford and Haynesville reservoirs, two of the most prolific "tight/shale gas" plays in North America. The Cambay Eocene reservoirs that have been analyzed display relatively good porosity for "tight reservoirs" and with a gross thickness of 200 to 500 meters these zones are substantially thicker than most North American "tight/shale" reservoirs. The studies have modeled Estimated Ultimate Recoveries (EUR's) of between 6 and 11
BCF gas with associated condensate per well.
Forward Plan
Oilex expects to submit data in October 2010 for independent reserves certification in early 2011.
Oilex will, subject to Joint Venture and Indian Government approval, further evaluate the "tight" reservoir potential with drilling and production testing using modern, multi-stage fracture stimulation technology. These operations are expected to continue through the first half of 2011 as equipment and materials become available.

LONDON (SHARECAST) - Shares in Oilex almost tripled on Monday after the oil and gas explorer announced a “significant” upgrade to its gas for the Cambay field in Gujarat, India.
Following a nine-month drill programme of studies, it now believes the field holds 248bn cubic feet (BCF) of gas and 11m barrels (MMbbls) of condensate with a 90% probability of being produced.
The company, which has a 45% stake in the project, watched its shares trade at 21.5p each after closing at just 8p on Friday.
“The studies indicate a very good correlation between the Cambay Eocene reservoirs and the Eagle Ford and Haynesville reservoirs, two of the most prolific "tight/shale gas" plays in North America,” the company said.
Iron ore explorer Bellzone Mining has increase and upgraded the magnetite JORC resource on eth central zone of the Kalia I deposit in Guinea, West Africa, to 2.4bn tonnes to 3.74bn tonnes.
“These results from the magnetite extension and upgrade clearly demonstrates this resource on Kalia I has more than sufficient iron ore to support the Company's current development plans for the next 60 years and clearly indicates the considerable potential for increasing production and mine life from other sections of the strike,” said managing director Nik Zuks.
Recruitment software provider Bond International is sharply lower after warning that revenues for the first six months of the year fell 11% on 2009 as it sold less software than expected.
Bosses are cutting costs and are “very optimistic” about the prospects for signing new business between now and the end of the year. If things continued as they were, the group would fall short of expectations, they said.
The firm believes results for the six months to 30 June, due on or before 24 September, will reveal turnover of not less than £15.1m and a loss before tax of £0.68m.
Empyrean Energy has inched higher on news that the construction of the pipeline to connect the BP America A-740 well at the Hercules prospect, onshore Texas, to the nearby sales pipeline has been completed.
The well, in which Empyrean has a 10% working interest, was turned on to sales at the weekend and achieved achieve a gas rate of 210,000 cubic feet of gas per day. It will be walked up to a stable production rate.
“Empyrean expects that as revenue kicks in from its interest in the Sugarloaf Project and the Hercules Project over the coming months the outlook for the company will dramatically improve," said executive director Tom Kelly.
Environmental plastics and waste-to-value group Symphony Environmental Technologies is down despite interim results that showed revenue rose 6% to £3.9m and pre-tax profit edged ahead to £0.42m.

volume weighted average Share price for the 5 business days immediately prior
to the date of the Annual General Meeting; and (b) for Tranche 2 Options the
amount equal to 170% of the 5 day volume weighted average Share price for the 5
business days immediately prior to the date of the Annual General Meeting. The
Options will vest and be exercisable on the date of grant. but must be
exercised before their expiry date which is: (a) for Tranche 1 Options - 2
years after the date of grant and (b) for Tranche 2 Options - 4 years after the
date of grant. Unexercised Options will lapse on their expiry date. Details of
the key terms of the Tranche 1 Options and the Tranche 2 Options are set out in
Appendix 1 to this Explanatory Memorandum. Both the Tranche 1 Options and the
Tranche 2 Options will be issued on the same terms (as set out in Appendix 1 to
this Explanatory Memorandum) other than with respect to the exercise price and
the exercise period of the Options.
The Company will inform Shareholders of the actual exercise price for Tranche 1
and Tranche 2 Options, calculated by reference to the formulae set out in the
preceding paragraph, by both publishing that information on its website at
www.oilex.com.au and announcing the exercise price to the market on the ASX
electronic announcements platform prior to the Annual General Meeting.
The Board (excluding the relevant recipient Director) has made the decision to
issue the Options to each Director on the basis of an assessment of the
individual Director's contribution to the Company and also considered that each
Director's continuing involvement and contribution to the Company, taking into
account the fact that the Company operates with a relatively small number of
Directors, will be significant in achieving sustainable growth in Shareholder
value. The Board also took into account each Director's existing remuneration
package (details of which are set out in paragraph (f) on page 10 & 11 of this
Explanatory Memorandum).

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits the Company from giving a
financial benefit (which includes the issue of an Option) to a related party of
the Company, unless either:
(a) the giving of the financial benefit falls within one of the nominated
exemptions in Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act; or
(b) prior Shareholder approval is obtained for the giving of the financial
benefit.
For the purposes of Chapter 2E, each Director is considered to be a related
party of the Company. The proposed issue of Options to Directors involves the
provision of a financial benefit to a related party of the Company and,
therefore, requires prior Shareholder approval.
In accordance with the requirements of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, the
following information is provided to Shareholders to allow them to assess the
proposed issue of Options:
(a) The related parties of the Company to whom the financial benefit would be
given if Shareholders approve Resolutions 4 to 10 are Mr Cozijn, Dr McCarthy,
Mr Barnes, Mr Bhandari, Mr Miller and Mr Clube.
(b) The nature of the financial benefit to be given is the issue of Options to
each Director. If the Company's Shares are trading on the ASX at a higher price
than the exercise price of the Options at the time of the exercise of the
Options, the effect will be to give an immediate financial benefit to each
Director at the time they each exercise the Options.
(c) Directors' abstentions:
(i) Mr Cozijn declines to make a recommendation about Resolution 4 as he has a
material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution. The remaining 5
Directors decline to make a recommendation about Resolution 4 due to their
interest in Resolutions 5 to 10 respectively.
(ii) Dr McCarthy declines to make a recommendation about Resolutions 5 and 10
as he has a material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolutions. The
remaining 5 Directors decline to make a recommendation about Resolution 5 due
to their interest in Resolutions 4 and 6 to 9 respectively.
(iii) Mr Barnes declines to make a recommendation about Resolution 6 as he has
a material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution. The remaining 5
Directors decline to make a recommendation about Resolution 6 due to their
interest in Resolutions 4, 5 and 7 to 10 respectively.
(iv) Mr Bhandari declines to make a recommendation about Resolution 7 as he has
a material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution. The remaining 5
Directors decline to make a recommendation about Resolution 7 due to their
interest in Resolutions 4 to 6 and 8 and 10 respectively.
(v) Mr Miller declines to make a recommendation about Resolution 8 as he has a
material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution. The remaining 5
Directors decline to make a recommendation about Resolution 8 due to their
interest in Resolutions 4 to 7 and 10 respectively.
(vi) Mr Clube declines to make a recommendation about Resolution 9 as he has a
material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution. The remaining 5
Directors decline to make a recommendation about Resolution 9 due to their
interest in Resolutions 4 to 8 and Resolution 10 respectively.
(d) No cash consideration will be payable upon issue of the Options. The other
key terms of the Options are:
(i) Tranche 1 Options:
* vest on the date of grant;
* expire on the date which is 2 years after the date of grant; and
* have an exercise price in an amount equal to 135% of the 5 day volume
weighted average Share price for the 5 business days immediately prior to
the date of the Annual General Meeting.
(ii) Tranche 2 Options:
* vest on the date of grant;
* expire on the date which is 4 years after the date of grant; and
* have an exercise price in an amount equal to 170% of the 5 day volume
weighted average Share price for the 5 business days immediately prior to
the date of the Annual General Meeting.
(e) An estimate of the value of the Options proposed to be issued pursuant to
Resolutions 4 to 10 using the Black Scholes option pricing model has been
calculated as set out below:
Resolution Name of Number of Total Value using Black
Related Party Options Scholes Model based on
grant date of 4 Oct 2010
4 Mr Cozijn 1,000,000 $98,889
5 Dr McCarthy 5,000,000 $480,652
6 Mr Barnes 4,000,000 $381,764
7 Mr Bhandari 750,000 $74,167
8 Mr Miller 1,500,000 $127,646
9 Mr Clube 2,000,000 $170,194
10 Dr McCarthy 2,500,000 $212,743
This has been calculated with the following assumptions:
(i) risk free interest rate of 4.5%;
(ii) current Share price of $0.19, being the average closing price of the
Company's Shares on ASX over the last 5 trading days prior to 4 October 2010;
(iii) dividend yield of 0%;
(iv) forecast volatility of 95.2%;
(v) Option exercise price of: Tranche 1 Options $0.26; and Tranche 2 Options
$0.32; and
(vi) Option term of: Tranche 1 Options - 2 years from 4 October 2010; and
Tranche 2 Options - 4 years from 4 October 2010.

(ii) Directors currently hold 11,550,000 Options as follows:
* 8,800,000 Options have exercise prices ranging from $1.75 to $2.50 and are

1 July 2014;
(iii) During the year ending 30 June 2010 4,500,000 Options held by Directors
expired;
(iv) If all of the Options (which in aggregate amount to 16,750,000 Options)
are issued and are exercised, the Company's Share capital will be diluted by
approximately 7.07%. This calculation:
* is based on the number of Shares on issue at the date of the Notice of
Meeting (which is 220,074,885); and
* assumes that no other options are exercised;
(v) The primary purpose of the issue of the Options is to recognise each
Director's contribution to the Company's development to date and to provide an
added incentive to each Director to contribute to increasing Shareholder value;
and
(vi) For information purposes, the Company intends to issue approximately
5,500,000 Options (comprising Tranche 1 and Tranche 2 Options) to employees
under the Employee Performance Rights Plan Rules, following the Annual General
Meeting.
(h) Over the last 12 months prior to the date of this Notice of Meeting, the
Company's Shares have traded as follows on the ASX:
Cents Date
High $0.38 12 November 2009
Low $0.07 18 June 2010
Last $0.195 1 October 2010
Australian International Financial Reporting Standards
Under AASB 2 Share-based Payments, pursuant to the adoption of Australian
International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS), the Company is required to
recognise the fair value of Options granted to Directors, employees,
consultants and other advisors as an expense on a pro-rata basis over the
vesting period of each Option in the Company's income statement with a
corresponding adjustment to equity on the Company's balance sheet.
Using the assumed Option value derived from the Black Scholes option pricing
calculations set out above in this Explanatory Memorandum, the impact of the
issue of Options on the Company's income statement for the financial year ended
30 June 2011 under each of Resolution 4 to 10 would be as follows:
Resolution number Director name Assumed value 30 June 2011
of Options Income Statement
Resolution 4 Mr Cozijn $98,889 $98,889
Resolution 5 Dr McCarthy $480,652 $480,652
Resolution 6 Mr Barnes $381,764 $381,764
Resolution 7 Mr Bhandari $74,167 $74,167
Resolution 8 Mr Miller $127,646 $127,646
Resolution 9 Mr Clube $170,194 $170,194
Resolution 10 Dr McCarthy $212,743 $212,743
It should be noted that the actual expense amounts may differ from those set
out above if the assumptions underlying the Black Scholes pricing model at the
date of issue of the Options vary from those set out above.
APPENDIX 1 TO ANNEXURE A
OILEX LTD
ABN 58 078 652 632
OPTIONS TERMS & CONDITIONS
1. Subject to clause 12, each Option entitles the holder, when exercised, to
one (1) Share.
2. The Options are exercisable at any time between the vesting date (insert
grant date) (Vesting Date) and 5.00 pm WST on the expiry date (insert
expiry date) by notice in writing to the Company accompanied by payment of
the exercise price.
3. Should the Director resign after the Vesting Date, then the Director
retains the Options until the earlier of their expiry or exercise.
4. An Option will lapse if the Director has resigned or his employment ceased
prior to the Option's Vesting Date.
5. The Options can be exercised in whole or in part, and if exercised in part
multiples of 10,000 must be exercised on each occasion, except where the
number of Options held is less than 10,000, in which case all such Options
must be exercised at the same time.
6. The exercise price of each Option shall be $(insert price).
7. The Options can be transferred and will be unlisted.
8. All Shares issued upon exercise of the Options will rank pari passu in all
respects with the Company's then existing fully paid Shares. The Company
will apply for Official Quotation by the ASX of all Shares issued upon
exercise of the Options.
9. There are no participating rights or entitlements inherent in the Options
to participate in any new issue of securities (including any pro-rata
issue) which may be offered to Shareholders of the Company from time to
time prior to the Options expiry date. However at least 10 business days
before the record date to determine entitlements to any such new issue of
securities, the Company will notify the Option holder(s) of the proposed
new issue. This will afford the Option holder(s) an opportunity to exercise
all or some of the Options prior to the record date of any such new issue
and then participate in that new issue (with respect to the Shares issued
on exercise of the Options).
10. The Options do not confer on the Option holder any right to a change in the
exercise price, or a change to the number of Shares to be issued on
exercise of the Options for any new issue of securities (including any
pro-rata issues).
11. The Options do not confer on the Option holder any right to participate in
dividends until Shares are allotted pursuant to the exercise of the Options
after which such Shares will qualify for any dividend paid on the fully
paid ordinary shares in the Company with a record date after the date of
allotment.
12. In the event of a reorganisation of the issued capital of the Company, the
Options will be reorganised in accordance with the Listing Rules of the ASX
(if applicable) and in any case in a manner which will not result in any
benefits being conferred on Option holders which are not conferred on
Shareholders.
13. The number of Shares to be issued pursuant to the exercise of Options will
be adjusted for bonus issues made prior to exercise of the Options so that,
upon exercise of the Options, the number of Shares received by the Option
holder will include the number of bonus Shares that would have been issued
if the Options had been exercised prior to the record date to determine
entitlements for the bonus issues. The exercise price of the Options shall
not change as a result of any such bonus issues.

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits the Company from giving a
financial benefit (which includes the issue of an Option) to a related party of
the Company, unless either:
(a) the giving of the financial benefit falls within one of the nominated
exemptions in Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act; or
(b) prior Shareholder approval is obtained for the giving of the financial
benefit.
For the purposes of Chapter 2E, each Director is considered to be a related
party of the Company. The proposed issue of Options to Directors involves the
provision of a financial benefit to a related party of the Company and,
therefore, requires prior Shareholder approval.
In accordance with the requirements of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, the
following information is provided to Shareholders to allow them to assess the
proposed issue of Options:
(a) The related parties of the Company to whom the financial benefit would be
given if Shareholders approve Resolutions 4 to 10 are Mr Cozijn, Dr McCarthy,
Mr Barnes, Mr Bhandari, Mr Miller and Mr Clube.
(b) The nature of the financial benefit to be given is the issue of Options to
each Director. If the Company's Shares are trading on the ASX at a higher price
than the exercise price of the Options at the time of the exercise of the
Options, the effect will be to give an immediate financial benefit to each
Director at the time they each exercise the Options.
(c) Directors' abstentions:
(i) Mr Cozijn declines to make a recommendation about Resolution 4 as he has a
material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution. The remaining 5
Directors decline to make a recommendation about Resolution 4 due to their
interest in Resolutions 5 to 10 respectively.
(ii) Dr McCarthy declines to make a recommendation about Resolutions 5 and 10
as he has a material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolutions. The
remaining 5 Directors decline to make a recommendation about Resolution 5 due
to their interest in Resolutions 4 and 6 to 9 respectively.
(iii) Mr Barnes declines to make a recommendation about Resolution 6 as he has
a material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution. The remaining 5
Directors decline to make a recommendation about Resolution 6 due to their
interest in Resolutions 4, 5 and 7 to 10 respectively.
(iv) Mr Bhandari declines to make a recommendation about Resolution 7 as he has
a material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution. The remaining 5
Directors decline to make a recommendation about Resolution 7 due to their
interest in Resolutions 4 to 6 and 8 and 10 respectively.
(v) Mr Miller declines to make a recommendation about Resolution 8 as he has a
material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution. The remaining 5
Directors decline to make a recommendation about Resolution 8 due to their
interest in Resolutions 4 to 7 and 10 respectively.
(vi) Mr Clube declines to make a recommendation about Resolution 9 as he has a
material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution. The remaining 5
Directors decline to make a recommendation about Resolution 9 due to their
interest in Resolutions 4 to 8 and Resolution 10 respectively.
(d) No cash consideration will be payable upon issue of the Options. The other
key terms of the Options are:
(i) Tranche 1 Options:
* vest on the date of grant;
* expire on the date which is 2 years after the date of grant; and
* have an exercise price in an amount equal to 135% of the 5 day volume
weighted average Share price for the 5 business days immediately prior to
the date of the Annual General Meeting.
(ii) Tranche 2 Options:
* vest on the date of grant;
* expire on the date which is 4 years after the date of grant; and
* have an exercise price in an amount equal to 170% of the 5 day volume
weighted average Share price for the 5 business days immediately prior to
the date of the Annual General Meeting.
(e) An estimate of the value of the Options proposed to be issued pursuant to
Resolutions 4 to 10 using the Black Scholes option pricing model has been
calculated as set out below:
Resolution Name of Number of Total Value using Black
Related Party Options Scholes Model based on
grant date of 4 Oct 2010
4 Mr Cozijn 1,000,000 $98,889
5 Dr McCarthy 5,000,000 $480,652
6 Mr Barnes 4,000,000 $381,764
7 Mr Bhandari 750,000 $74,167
8 Mr Miller 1,500,000 $127,646
9 Mr Clube 2,000,000 $170,194
10 Dr McCarthy 2,500,000 $212,743
This has been calculated with the following assumptions:
(i) risk free interest rate of 4.5%;
(ii) current Share price of $0.19, being the average closing price of the
Company's Shares on ASX over the last 5 trading days prior to 4 October 2010;
(iii) dividend yield of 0%;
(iv) forecast volatility of 95.2%;
(v) Option exercise price of: Tranche 1 Options $0.26; and Tranche 2 Options
$0.32; and
(vi) Option term of: Tranche 1 Options - 2 years from 4 October 2010; and
Tranche 2 Options - 4 years from 4 October 2010.

Notes:
Note 1: The grant date will be within 1 month of the date of obtaining
Shareholder approval to issue the Options. The Options will vest on the same
date.
Note 2: The exercise price will be an amount equal to 135% of the 5 day volume
weighted average Share price for the 5 business days immediately prior to the
date of the Annual General Meeting.
Note 3: The exercise price will be an amount equal to 170% of the 5 day volume

(ii) Directors currently hold 11,550,000 Options as follows:
* 8,800,000 Options have exercise prices ranging from $1.75 to $2.50 and are

* 500,000 Options have an exercise price of $2.25 and are due to expire on 30
June 2012;
* 2,250,000 Options have an exercise price of $0.30 and are due to expire on
1 July 2014;
(iii) During the year ending 30 June 2010 4,500,000 Options held by Directors
expired;
(iv) If all of the Options (which in aggregate amount to 16,750,000 Options)
are issued and are exercised, the Company's Share capital will be diluted by
approximately 7.07%. This calculation:
* is based on the number of Shares on issue at the date of the Notice of
Meeting (which is 220,074,885); and
* assumes that no other options are exercised;
(v) The primary purpose of the issue of the Options is to recognise each
Director's contribution to the Company's development to date and to provide an
added incentive to each Director to contribute to increasing Shareholder value;
and
(vi) For information purposes, the Company intends to issue approximately
5,500,000 Options (comprising Tranche 1 and Tranche 2 Options) to employees
under the Employee Performance Rights Plan Rules, following the Annual General
Meeting.
(h) Over the last 12 months prior to the date of this Notice of Meeting, the
Company's Shares have traded as follows on the ASX:
Cents Date
High $0.38 12 November 2009
Low $0.07 18 June 2010
Last $0.195 1 October 2010
Australian International Financial Reporting Standards
Under AASB 2 Share-based Payments, pursuant to the adoption of Australian
International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS), the Company is required to
recognise the fair value of Options granted to Directors, employees,
consultants and other advisors as an expense on a pro-rata basis over the
vesting period of each Option in the Company's income statement with a
corresponding adjustment to equity on the Company's balance sheet.
Using the assumed Option value derived from the Black Scholes option pricing
calculations set out above in this Explanatory Memorandum, the impact of the
issue of Options on the Company's income statement for the financial year ended
30 June 2011 under each of Resolution 4 to 10 would be as follows:
Resolution number Director name Assumed value 30 June 2011
of Options Income Statement
Resolution 4 Mr Cozijn $98,889 $98,889
Resolution 5 Dr McCarthy $480,652 $480,652
Resolution 6 Mr Barnes $381,764 $381,764
Resolution 7 Mr Bhandari $74,167 $74,167
Resolution 8 Mr Miller $127,646 $127,646
Resolution 9 Mr Clube $170,194 $170,194
Resolution 10 Dr McCarthy $212,743 $212,743
It should be noted that the actual expense amounts may differ from those set
out above if the assumptions underlying the Black Scholes pricing model at the
date of issue of the Options vary from those set out above.
APPENDIX 1 TO ANNEXURE A
OILEX LTD
ABN 58 078 652 632
OPTIONS TERMS & CONDITIONS
1. Subject to clause 12, each Option entitles the holder, when exercised, to
one (1) Share.
2. The Options are exercisable at any time between the vesting date (insert
grant date) (Vesting Date) and 5.00 pm WST on the expiry date (insert
expiry date) by notice in writing to the Company accompanied by payment of
the exercise price.
3. Should the Director resign after the Vesting Date, then the Director
retains the Options until the earlier of their expiry or exercise.
4. An Option will lapse if the Director has resigned or his employment ceased
prior to the Option's Vesting Date.
5. The Options can be exercised in whole or in part, and if exercised in part
multiples of 10,000 must be exercised on each occasion, except where the
number of Options held is less than 10,000, in which case all such Options
must be exercised at the same time.
6. The exercise price of each Option shall be $(insert price).
7. The Options can be transferred and will be unlisted.
8. All Shares issued upon exercise of the Options will rank pari passu in all
respects with the Company's then existing fully paid Shares. The Company
will apply for Official Quotation by the ASX of all Shares issued upon
exercise of the Options.
9. There are no participating rights or entitlements inherent in the Options
to participate in any new issue of securities (including any pro-rata
issue) which may be offered to Shareholders of the Company from time to
time prior to the Options expiry date. However at least 10 business days
before the record date to determine entitlements to any such new issue of
securities, the Company will notify the Option holder(s) of the proposed
new issue. This will afford the Option holder(s) an opportunity to exercise
all or some of the Options prior to the record date of any such new issue
and then participate in that new issue (with respect to the Shares issued
on exercise of the Options).
10. The Options do not confer on the Option holder any right to a change in the
exercise price, or a change to the number of Shares to be issued on
exercise of the Options for any new issue of securities (including any
pro-rata issues).
11. The Options do not confer on the Option holder any right to participate in
dividends until Shares are allotted pursuant to the exercise of the Options
after which such Shares will qualify for any dividend paid on the fully
paid ordinary shares in the Company with a record date after the date of
allotment.
12. In the event of a reorganisation of the issued capital of the Company, the
Options will be reorganised in accordance with the Listing Rules of the ASX
(if applicable) and in any case in a manner which will not result in any
benefits being conferred on Option holders which are not conferred on
Shareholders.
13. The number of Shares to be issued pursuant to the exercise of Options will
be adjusted for bonus issues made prior to exercise of the Options so that,
upon exercise of the Options, the number of Shares received by the Option
holder will include the number of bonus Shares that would have been issued
if the Options had been exercised prior to the record date to determine
entitlements for the bonus issues. The exercise price of the Options shall
not change as a result of any such bonus issues.
