Receipt of Financial Statements and Reports

The Company’s financial report and the reports of the Directors and Auditor for the year ended 30 June 2018 are placed before the meeting, giving shareholders the opportunity to discuss these documents and to ask questions. No resolution is required in respect of these documents.

Resolution 1: Re-election of Dr Timothy Oldham as Director

Resolution 1 seeks approval for the re-election of Dr Timothy Oldham as a Director of the Company. In accordance with clause 58 of the Company’s constitution, Dr Timothy Oldham will hold office until the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election as a Director of the Company.

Set out below are biographical details for Dr Timothy Oldham.

Dr Timothy Oldham joined the Board on 1 October 2013 as an independent Non-Executive Director. Timothy is also Chair of the Human Capital and Nomination Committee and a member of the Audit and Risk Committee.

Dr Timothy Oldham BSc (Hons), LLBD (Hons), PhD, joined the board in October 2013. He has more than 15 years of life sciences business development, alliance management and sales and marketing experience in Europe, Asia and Australia. He provides strategic advice and executive and non-executive leadership to a portfolio of life sciences businesses with a focus on cell and gene therapies. Timothy was the CEO and Managing Director of Cell Therapies Pty Ltd, a leading Asia Pacific provider of manufacturing and distribution of cell-based therapeutics (2014-2017), and President of Asia Pacific for Hospira Inc. (2007 to 2012), having held a variety of senior management roles with Mayne Pharma (2002 to 2007) prior to its acquisition by Hospira.

Resolution 2: Grant of rights to the Non-executive Directors

At the Company’s 2017 Annual General Meeting, shareholders approved the implementation of an Omnibus Equity Plan ( OEP ) for the provision of long-term equity-based incentives within the Company. Subsequently, the Board made initial grants of performance rights to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer ( CEO ) and other employees. The CEO was issued 4,000,000 performance rights for nil cash consideration.

The OEP Rules and initial grants under them, were based on work performed by the Acrux’s Human Capital and Nominations Committee ( HCNC ) and the Board and have taken into account the advice of executive and board remuneration consultants Egan Associates (www.eganassociates.com.au) in relation to best practice long term incentive plans, common practices in relation to the quantum of grants and the type of securities issued.

A review of Non-executive Directors’ remuneration was conducted as part of the work performed with Egan Associates. The Non-executive Directors’ remuneration has not been adjusted since 2014. The Company believes that issuing rights to Non-executive Directors in lieu of increasing cash remuneration is a prudent approach and aligns with the Company’s continual approach to implementing cash-saving measures.

ASX Listing Rule 10.14 provides that a company must not issue securities to its directors under an employee incentive scheme, unless specific approval for the issue of securities to named directors is obtained. Shareholder approval is therefore sought for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.14 for the Company to issue 800,000 rights to the Non-executive Directors under the OEP.

If approval is given for the grant of the rights to the Non-executive Directors under ASX Listing Rule 10.14, approval is not required under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and the rights issued to Non-executive Directors (and any shares issued pursuant to the issue of the rights) will not count towards the 15% share placement cap available under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

In accordance with the requirements of ASX Listing Rule 10.15, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of rights to the Non-executive Directors:

  • Mr Ross Dobinson is the Non-executive Chairman of the Company and Dr Timothy Oldham, Dr Simon Green and Dr Geoff Brooke are Non-executive Directors of the company. Collectively, all of these Directors are referred to as Non-executive Directors and are related parties of the Company for whom approval must be obtained.

  • The rights will be issued as follows:

Non-executive Director Number of rights
Mr Ross Dobinson 320,000
Dr TimothyOldham 160,000
Dr Simon Green 160,000
Dr Geoff Brooke 160,000
  • The rights will vest annually in equal tranches over four years commencing 1 January 2018 and in accordance with good governance principles, are subject only to service and do not include a performance vesting condition.

==> picture [550 x 84] intentionally omitted <==

Page 6 of 10

Resolution 2: Grant of rights to the Non-executive Directors (continued)

  • The rights will be issued to the Non-executive Directors for nil cash consideration and therefore no funds will be raised.

  • There will be no loan applicable to the grant of rights.

  • Each right will give the recipient Non-executive Directors a right to acquire one ordinary share in the Company for nil consideration.

  • If this resolution is passed, the rights will be issued to the Non-executive Directors as soon as practically possible but no later than 12 months after the date of the Company’s Annual General Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules). The first tranche will vest on 1 January 2019.

  • The primary purpose of the issue of the rights to the Non-executive Directors is to provide an alternative to an increase in fees paid to Directors to preserve the Company’s cash reserves, as the Non-executive Directors have not received a remuneration adjustment since 2014.

  • Any additional persons (who require approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.14) who become entitled to participate in the OEP and who were not named in this explanatory statement will not participate until approval is obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.14.

  • The issue will also align the interests of the Non-executive Directors with those of shareholders towards long term sustained superior growth.

A voting exclusion applies to Resolution 2, as set out in the notes below.

Resolution 3: Adoption of Remuneration Report (Non-binding Advisory Vote)

General

The Corporations Act 2001 (Corporations Act) requires the Directors’ report to include certain information relating to remuneration arrangements for Directors and senior executives in a remuneration report. The 2018 Remuneration Report can be found at pages 27 to 33 of the Company’s 2018 Annual Report.

The Corporations Act further requires that each Australian listed public company put to a vote at its Annual General Meeting a resolution that the Remuneration Report be adopted. The vote is advisory only and does not bind the Company nor the Directors of the Company. However, the Board will take the outcome of the vote into consideration when reviewing the remuneration policies and practices of the Company.

==> picture [550 x 84] intentionally omitted <==

Resolution 3: Adoption of Remuneration Report (Non-binding Advisory Vote) (Continued)

Voting consequences

Under the Corporations Act, if, at consecutive Annual General Meetings:

  • (a) at least 25% of the votes cast on a Remuneration Report resolution are cast against the adoption of the Remuneration Report; and

  • (b) at the first of those Annual General Meetings a Spill Resolution (as defined below) was not put to vote,

a company is required to put to its shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of another meeting of the company’s shareholders ( Spill Meeting ) to consider the composition of the board ( Spill Resolution ). If more than 50% of the votes cast are in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene the Spill Meeting within 90 days of the second of those Annual General Meetings. This is commonly known as the “two-strike” rule.

Previous voting results

At the Company’s 2017 Annual General Meeting, 53% of the votes cast on the resolution to adopt the 2017 Remuneration Report were cast against the resolution. Accordingly, the Company received a “first strike”. It is noted that while the Company recorded a first strike on the 2017 Remuneration Report, no comments nor reasons were given, nor were any concerns raised by the shareholders at the Company’s 2017 Annual General Meeting in relation to the 2017 Remuneration Report.

In light of the voting result in relation to the 2017 Remuneration Report resolution, the Company has increased engagement with shareholders and potential investors regarding the Company's strategy, including the remuneration policies. An investor relations firm has been appointed to enhance investor liaison regarding the Company's strategy. The Board has also continued to consider the recommendations of independent remuneration consultants, Egan Associates received during 2017.

It should be noted that even though the vote on Resolution 3 is advisory only, if more than 25% of the votes cast on this resolution are against adopting the 2018 Remuneration Report, the Contingent Spill Resolution in Resolution 4 will be put to the meeting. The operation and consequences of a Spill Resolution are set out under Resolution 4.

A voting exclusion applies to Resolution 3, as set out in the notes below.

CONTINGENT BUSINESS

Resolution 4: Conditional Spill Resolution

This resolution is a “conditional” resolution. It is conditional on 25% or more of the votes cast on Resolution 3 being cast against the adoption of the 2018 Remuneration Report. This resolution will be considered as an ordinary resolution which means that to be passed, the resolution requires the approval of a simple majority of the votes cast by or on behalf of shareholders entitled to vote on the matter.

==> picture [550 x 84] intentionally omitted <==

Page 8 of 10

Resolution 4: Conditional Spill Resolution (Continued)

If the votes cast on Resolution 3 against the adoption of the 2018 Remuneration Report are less than 25% of the votes, then the Company will not record a “second strike” and Resolution 4 will not be put forward at the Annual General Meeting.

If this resolution is passed, then the Company must hold the Spill Meeting within 90 days of the Annual General Meeting to consider the composition of the Board. If a Spill Meeting is required, the date of the meeting will be notified to shareholders in due course.

If a Spill Meeting is held, the following Directors will automatically cease to hold office as Directors of the Company at the conclusion of the Spill Meeting, unless they are willing to stand for re-election and are re-elected at the Spill Meeting:

  • ₋ Mr Ross Dobinson

  • ₋ Dr Timothy Oldham

  • ₋ Dr Simon Green

  • ₋ Dr Geoff Brooke

For the avoidance of doubt, if Resolution 3 is not passed, even if Dr Timothy Oldham, who is seeking reelection at this year’s Annual General Meeting is elected at the Annual General Meeting, he will still need to be re-elected at the Spill Meeting to remain in office after 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.

When considering Resolution 4, the Directors suggest that shareholders consider the additional costs in convening an additional general meeting of the shareholders.

A voting exclusion applies to Resolution 4, as set out in the notes below.

NOTES

Entitlement to Vote and Proxies

Only registered holders of the Company’s shares as at Tuesday, 30 October 2018 at 7:00 pm are eligible to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting.

Voting exclusions

In respect of Resolution 2, ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act requires the Company to disregard any votes cast in favour of the resolution by any Director of the Company, any associates of those Directors or as a proxy by a member of the Company’s key management personnel ( KMP ) or their related parties.

However, the Company need not disregard a vote if:

  • it is cast by a person as proxy for another person who is entitled to vote, in accordance with directions on the proxy form; or

  • it is cast by the person chairing the meeting as proxy for another person who is entitled to vote, in accordance with a direction on the proxy form to vote as the proxy decides.

In respect of Resolution 3 and Resolution 4 (if required), the Corporations Act requires that a member of the KMP whose remuneration details are included in the remuneration report (or a closely related party of such KMP) must not vote and the Company will disregard any votes cast by such a person, unless:

  • that person does so as a proxy; and

  • the vote is not cast on behalf of a KMP whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report (or a closely related party of such KMP); and either:

  • the proxy appointment specifies how the proxy is to vote on the resolution; or

  • the proxy is the Chairman of the Annual General Meeting and the proxy appointment expressly authorises the Chairman to exercise the proxy even though Resolution 3 and Resolution 4 (if required) is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a KMP.

Voting by Proxy

A member entitled to attend and vote at this Annual General Meeting is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies using the enclosed proxy form. A proxy need not be a member of the Company. The proxy may be an individual or a body corporate. Your proxy's authority to speak and vote for you at the meeting is suspended if you are present at the meeting.

If you appoint one proxy that proxy may vote on a show of hands. Where two proxies are appointed, each proxy may be appointed to represent a specific proportion of your voting rights on a poll but neither proxy has a vote on a show of hands. If you appoint two proxies and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of your votes each proxy may exercise, section 249X of the Corporations Act 2001 provides that each proxy may exercise half of the votes (ignoring fractions). If you appoint another member as your proxy, that person will have only one vote on a show of hands and does not have to vote on a show of hands in accordance with any direction by you.

You may direct your proxy how to vote by marking X in one of the three boxes opposite each item of business. All your votes will be cast in accordance with your direction unless you indicate only a portion of votes are to be cast on any item by inserting the percentage of your voting rights applicable to the proxy appointed by the proxy form in the appropriate box. If you do not mark any of the boxes relating to the items of business, your proxy may vote as he or she chooses. If you mark more than one box relating to the same item of business any vote by your proxy on that item will be invalid.

The enclosed proxy form provides further details on appointing proxies and lodging proxy forms. Proxies and the original or a certified copy of the power of attorney (if the proxy form is signed by an attorney) must be received not later than 10:00 am on Tuesday, 30 October 2018:

  • by lodging it on-line at the registry’s website (www.linkmarketservices.com.au) in accordance with the instructions given there. (You will be taken to have signed your proxy form if you lodge it in accordance with the instructions given on the website); or

  • by post in the reply paid envelope provided addressed to Link Market Services Limited; or

  • by facsimile to Link Market Services Limited on fax number (02) 9287 0309. Documents received after that time will not be valid for the scheduled meeting.

Bodies Corporate

A body corporate may appoint an individual as its representative to exercise any of the powers the body may exercise at meetings of the Company's shareholders. The appointment may be a standing one. Unless the appointment states otherwise, the representative may exercise all of the powers that the appointing body could exercise at a meeting or in voting on a resolution. The representative should bring to the meeting evidence of his or her appointment, including any authority under which the appointment is signed, unless it has previously been given to the Company.
