Shareholder Voting Rights

1 Entitlement to vote at the Meeting

a)     

Record date for voting - We have fixed 28 October 2019 as the "Record Date" for determining the registered shareholders who will be entitled to notice of the Meeting, and any adjournment or postponement of the Meeting, and who will be entitled to vote at this Meeting.

 

 
b)     

Shares outstanding and voting - Our authorized capital consists of 500,000,000 Common Shares and 500,000,000 preferred shares. No preferred shares have been issued and none are outstanding. There were a total of 174,715,381 Common Shares outstanding at the close of business on the Record Date, and these trade in the US on the OTC markets under the symbol "CPPXF".

 

 
c)     

One share and one vote - Holders of Common Shares are entitled to one vote for each one Common Share held-of-record upon the Record Date, in all matters to be acted upon by the shareholders at this Meeting. Holders may exercise that vote either in person or by a designated proxy.

 

 
d)     

Quorum and votes to pass ordinary resolutions - We need a quorum of shareholders to be present to transact business at this Meeting. Under our articles, section-11.3, a quorum consists of one or more of the shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or by proxy. Our articles require a simple majority (50% plus 1) of the votes cast at the Meeting, to pass an ordinary resolution approving any one of the agenda matters to be voted on at this Meeting.

 

 
e)     

Scrutineer of the meeting - Computershare Investor Services (“Computershare”) is our transfer agent and registrar. The Company has hired Computershare to attend and act as scrutineer of the Meeting. Computershare will also count, tabulate, and record the votes, including those voted in advance of the Meeting time whether voted by internet, telephone, mail, or fax directly, or via Intermediaries, in accordance with the instructions in this Circular.

 

 
f)     

Who can vote? - You are entitled to vote at the Meeting if you held Common Shares as of the close of business on October 28, 2019, the Record Date for the Meeting. There are different ways to submit your votes or provide voting instructions to a "Proxyholder", depending on whether you are a "Registered Shareholder" or a "Beneficial Shareholder".

2 What kind of shareholder are you?

How you may choose to vote your Common Shares at the Meeting depends on whether you are a "Registered Shareholder" or a "Beneficial Shareholder".

a)     

You’re a Registered Shareholder if your name appears in our records as the registered holder of certificate(s) of any number of our Company's Common Shares.

 

 
b)     

You’re a Beneficial Shareholder, but not a registered one, if your Common Shares are held in your account by a securities dealer or stock broker, asset manager, bank, trust company, plan administrator, or other financial institution; any one of which may be "Your Broker". The vast majority of our shareholders are Beneficial Shareholders.

 

 
AGM Information Circular 2019 Continental Energy Corporation Page 1

 




c)     

All Beneficial Shareholders are either a "NOBO" or an "OBO" depending upon whether you have declared yourself to Your Broker to be a "Non- Objecting Beneficial Owner" or an "Objecting Beneficial Owner" of our Common Shares. In these cases, the word "Objecting" means you objected in writing to your name being disclosed by Your Broker to any third parties, including the Company, as the owner of your Common Shares.

3 Who and what are Intermediaries?

As a Beneficial Shareholder your Common Shares are probably held in "street name form", and although shown to you to be in your account, may be held on your behalf and instead registered in the name of Your Broker or maybe even in the name of Your Broker's own securities depository or clearing agent. These agents are typically "CDS" if Your Broker is located in Canada or "Cede & Co" if Your Broker is located in the USA. Regardless, Your Broker, CDS, Cede & Co, or any other depository or clearing agent are each referred to in this Circular as an "Intermediary" and collectively as "Intermediaries".

4 The roles of Computershare and Broadridge

Management of the Company has engaged the services of Computershare Investor Solutions ("Computershare") and Broadridge Financial Solutions ("Broadridge") to act as the Company's agents to assist in the distribution of this Circular and attached proxy and Meeting related materials to the shareholders; collect and record duly completed proxies, interact with Intermediaries to research Beneficial Shareholders; and generally assist with the recording of the proxyholder's votes on the agenda items to be considered at the Meeting.

5 Distribution of Circular and proxy related materials

The Canadian Securities Administrators ("CSA") is an umbrella organization of securities regulators that harmonizes regulation of the Canadian capital markets through National Instruments ("NI"). One of these, "CSA NI 54-101 Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer" or "NI 54-101" governs procedures for shareholder communications such as those of this Circular, the accompanying "Notice", and the enclosed "Form of Proxy" or "VIF" - "Voting Instruction Form" regarding the Meeting.

This Circular and related proxy materials are being sent to both registered and non-registered owners of the securities. If you are a non-registered owner, and the Company, Computershare or Broadridge or another of the Company agents have sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of securities, have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the Intermediary holding them on your behalf.

In accordance with NI 54-101:

The VIF will have clear instructions on how to cast your votes by internet, phone, or mail and will also permit you to designate a Proxyholder through your Intermediary or Broadridge. To vote, please follow the detailed instructions in the VIF.

 

 
c )     

OBO Distribution - The Company has elected NOT to pay for the mailing costs to send proxy materials for this Meeting to Objecting Beneficial Owners.

23 Corporate cease trade orders or bankruptcies, penalties or sanctions

a )     

No proposed director is, as of the date of this Circular, or has been within 10 years before the date of this Circular, a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer of any company (including ours) that was subject to a cease trade order, an order similar to a cease trade order or an order that denied the relevant company access to any exemption under securities legislation, that was in effect for a period of more than 30 consecutive days (an “order”) that was issued while the proposed director was acting in the capacity as director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer except as follows:

 

 
  i)

As a result of the delinquent filing of the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 and subsequent quarterly filings, the BC Securities Commission issued a cease trade order on December 23, 2013 and the Alberta Securities Commission issued a similar cease trade order on March 26, 2014. These orders prohibited the trading of the Company’s securities in Canada until the Company's 2013 annual and subsequent quarterly filings were brought current and revocation orders were issued by both Commissions. The delinquencies were cured by the Company and on July 24, 2014, the BC Securities Commission and the Alberta Securities Commission both revoked their cease trade orders. Therefore, two directors nominated for re-election, McAdoo and Garrison were directors at the time Continental received the order and remained as directors until the deficiencies were cured and the cease trade order lifted.

   

 
AGM Information Circular 2019 Continental Energy Corporation Page 6

 




  ii)

As a result of the delinquent filing of the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, the BC Securities Commission issued the Company a cease trade order on November 4, 2015. The order prohibited trading of the Company’s securities in Canada until the deficiency is cured by the Company filing the required financial reports and a revocation order is issued. The Company completed the audits and filed the last of the statements and reports required to remedy and cure the filing deficiencies on 23 June 2017. The Company applied for a revocation order on 7 July 2017, and the BCSC revoked the cease trade order on 20 July 2017. Therefore, two directors nominated for re-election, McAdoo and Garrison were directors at the time Continental received the order and remained as directors until the deficiencies were cured and the cease trade order lifted.

   

 
  iii)     

Geopetro Resources Company ("Geopetro") is a US company that listed its shares on the TSX and commenced trading under the symbol TSX:GEP on March 30, 2006. Geopetro applied to voluntarily delist its common stock from the TSX, and upon acceptance by the TSX, Geopetro's stock ceased to trade on the TSX at the close of trading on March 5, 2009. Geopetro continued thereafter to be a reporting issuer in each of the provinces of Canada. Geopetro's shares continued to trade in the USA, first on the NYSE MKT and now currently on the OTC- Pink. As a result of the delinquent filing with Canadian regulators by Geopetro of its audited annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, provincial securities regulators issued cease trade orders in 2015 to Geopetro. These orders prohibit trading of Geopetro securities in Canada until the deficiency is cured by Geopetro filing the required financial reports and revocation orders by the regulators are issued. One director nominated for re-election, Mr. Doshi was a director and CEO of Geopetro at the time it received the orders.

   

 
b )

No proposed director is, as of the date of this Circular, or has been within 10 years before the date of this Circular, a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer of any company (including ours) that was subject to an order that was issued after the proposed director ceased to be a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer and which resulted from an event that occurred while that person was acting in the capacity as director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer;

 

 
c )

No proposed director is, as of the date of this Circular, or has been within 10 years before the date of this Circular, a director or executive officer of any company that, while that person was acting in that capacity, or within a year of that person ceasing to act in that capacity, became bankrupt, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency or was subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangement or compromise with creditors or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold its assets; or

 

 
d )

It is the Company's sole options based incentive compensation plan and is in force and effect as of the date of this Circular. Its key terms and provisions are summarized as follows:

a )

Purpose of Plan - The purpose of the 2017 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") is to provide the Company with an equity based compensation mechanism (in this case one common share (a "Share") of the Company underlying each "Option") to attract, retain and motivate qualified "Executives", "Employees" and "Consultants" (as each group is defined in the Plan) to contribute toward the long term goals of the Company. It also encourages such individuals to acquire Shares of the Company as long term investments, and thereby aligns the common interests of such individuals to those of the Company's other shareholders.

 

 
b )

Oversight of the Plan - The Compensation Committee of the board of directors is charged with oversight and management of the Plan. The Compensation Committee also determines, subject to the provisions of the Plan, those Executives, Employees and Consultants to whom Options are to be granted; the Exercise Price at which the Option may be exercised; the term for which the Option is to be valid; and the special terms or vesting milestones of the Option, if any, set out in the Option certificate delivered to the holder.

 

 
c )

Participation in Plan - The Compensation Committee of the board of directors is charged with oversight and management of the Plan. The Compensation Committee also determines those Executives, Employees and Consultants to whom Options are to be granted.

e )

Rolling Return - If any Option expires or otherwise terminates for any reason without having been exercised in full, the number of Shares in respect of such expired or terminated Option shall again be available for the purposes of granting Options pursuant to this Plan. Similarly, 10% of the new shares created on any Option exercise shall contribute to the available pool of Options available for grant.

 

 
f )

Exercise Price of Option - The "Exercise Price" shall not be less than the "Market Value" of the Shares as of the grant date. The Market Value of the Shares for a particular grant date is the closing trading price of the Shares on the day immediately preceding the grant date, and may be less than this price only if it is within the discounts permitted by the applicable listing requirements and regulatory authorities.

  i )

In the event of the death or disability of the holder, the Options shall be exercisable by the holder's heir or personal representative for a period of one-year from the date of death or disability.
