EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

1. Introduction

This Explanatory Memorandum has been prepared for the information of Shareholders of the Company in connection with the business to be conducted at the Meeting to be held at Collins Street Business Centre, Level 14/330 Collins St, Melbourne, Melbourne VIC 3000, on Tuesday, 14 November 2017 at 10am (AEDT).

This Explanatory Memorandum should be read in conjunction with and forms part of the accompanying Notice. The purpose of this Explanatory Memorandum is to provide information to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions in the Notice.

A Proxy Form is located at the end of the Explanatory Memorandum.

2. Action to be taken by Shareholders

Shareholders should read the Notice and this Explanatory Memorandum carefully before deciding how to vote on the Resolutions.

2.1 Proxies

A Proxy Form is attached to the Notice. This is to be used by Shareholders if they wish to appoint a representative (a 'proxy') to vote in their place. All Shareholders are invited and encouraged to attend the Meeting or, if they are unable to attend in person, sign and return the Proxy Form to the Company in accordance with the instructions thereon. Lodgment of a Proxy Form will not preclude a Shareholder from attending and voting at the Meeting in person.

Please note that:

  • (a) a member of the Company entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy;

  • (b) a proxy need not be a member of the Company; and

  • (c) a member of the Company entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint two proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise, but where the proportion or number is not specified, each proxy may exercise half of the votes.

A proxy can be either an individual or a body corporate. Should you appoint a body corporate as your proxy, that body corporate will need to ensure that it appoints an individual as its corporate representative to exercise its powers at meetings in accordance with section 250D of the Corporations Act and provide satisfactory evidence of the appointment of its corporate representative to the Company prior to the Meeting.

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:

  • (a) 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);

  • (b) 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;

  • (c) 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);

  • (d) 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:

  • (a) 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

  • (b) the appointed proxy is not the chair of the meeting; and

  • (c) at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded on the resolution; and

  • (d) either of the following applies:

  • i) the proxy is not recorded as attending the meeting; or

  • ii) 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.

Authorised representative of corporate shareholders

A corporation may elect to appoint an individual to act as its representative in accordance with section 250D of the Corporations Act in which case the Company will require a Certificate of Appointment of Corporate Representative executed in accordance with the Corporations Act to be provided prior to the Meeting.

The enclosed Proxy Form provides further details on appointing proxies and lodging Proxy Forms.

3. Annual Report

There is no requirement for Shareholders to approve the Annual Report. Shareholders will be offered the following opportunities:

  • (a) discuss the Annual Report which is online at www.adalta.com.au and click on the direct link;

  • (c) ask questions or make comment on the management of the Company;

  • (c) ask the auditor questions about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the Auditor's Report.

In addition to taking questions at the Meeting, written questions to the Chairman about the management of the Company, or to the Company's auditor about:

  • (a) the preparation and the content of the Auditor's Report; and

  • (b) the conduct of the audit;

  • (c) accounting policies by the Company in relation to the preparation of the financial statements; and

  • (d) the independence of the auditor in relation to the conduct of the audit,

may be submitted no later than 5 business days before the Meeting to the Company Secretary at the Company's registered office.

4. Resolution 1 - Remuneration Report

Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act provides that the Company is required to put the adoption of the Remuneration Report to the vote of Shareholders. The Directors' Report contains the Remuneration Report which sets out the remuneration policy for the Company and reports the remuneration arrangements in place for the executive Directors, specified executives and non-executive Directors.

Section 250R(3) of the Corporations Act provides that Resolution 1 is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company.

While the vote on this Resolution 1 is advisory only, the outcome of the vote will be considered for the purposes of the ”two strikes rule”, where if a resolution on the Remuneration Report receives a 'no' vote of 25% or more at two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders a “board spill resolution” at the second of those annual general meetings. If the board spill resolution is passed, the Company is required to hold a further meeting of the Shareholders within 90 days at which all Directors (other than the managing director) who were in office at the date of approval of the applicable Directors' Report must stand for re-election.

No strike was recorded at the Company's last annual general meeting. On this basis, while the vote on the Remuneration Report at this Meeting may potentially be counted towards the two strikes in the future, no board spill can occur this year. The Chairman will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders as a whole to ask about, or make comments on the Remuneration Report.

Recommendation

The Directors unanimously recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.

The Chairman intends to exercise all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1. If the Chairman of the Meeting is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chairman is to vote on Resolution 1, by signing and returning the Proxy Form, the Shareholder is considered to have provided the Chairman with an express authorisation for the Chairman to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chairman's intention.

5. Resolution 2 – Re-election of Director- Dr Robert Peach

Dr Robert Peach was appointed by the Directors on 14 November 2016. Pursuant to Listing Rule 14.4 and clause 16.6 of the Constitution, a Director appointed by the Directors holds office until the end of the next annual general meeting of the Company when the Director may be re-elected but will not be taken into account in determining the number of Directors who must retire by rotation. Resolution 2 seeks approval for the re-election of Dr Robert Peach.

Dr Robert Peach’s details are set out in the Annual Report.

Recommendation

The Directors (with Dr Peach abstaining) recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

The Chair intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 2.

6. Resolutions 3 and 4 - Re-election of Directors- Dr Paul MacLeman and Dr John Chiplin

Listing Rule 14.4 and clause 16.4 of the Constitution require that a Director (excluding the managing Director) must not hold office (without re-election) past the third annual general meeting following the Director's appointment or three years, whichever is longer.

At each annual general meeting one-third of the Directors (except for the managing Director) or, if their number is not three or a multiple of three, then the number nearest but not exceeding one-third, shall retire from office by rotation. The Directors to retire in every year shall be those who have been longest in office since their last election but as between persons who became Directors on the same day shall (unless they otherwise agree between themselves) be determined by lot.

A Director who retires under clause 16.4 of the Constitution is eligible for re-election. The Company currently has 6 Directors (including 1 Managing Director).

Dr Paul MacLeman, a director since 16 April 2015 retires and seeks re-election.

Dr John Chiplin, a director since 16 May 2014 retires and seeks re-election.

Recommendations

The Directors (with Dr MacLeman abstaining) recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.

The Directors (with Dr Chiplin abstaining) recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4.

The Chair intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of Resolutions 3 and 4.

7. Resolution 5, 6, 7 and 8 - Issuance of options to Directors

Resolutions 5, 6, 7 and 8 seek Shareholder approval for the grant of unlisted Options ( Related Party Options ) to each of Samantha Cobb, Dr Robert Peach, Dr Paul MacLeman and Dr John Chiplin (each, a Related Party ) on the terms set out in the table below to preserve cash resources and to incentivise them.

Shareholder Approval (Listing Rule 10.14) – Samantha Cobb, Dr Robert Peach, Dr Paul MacLeman and Dr John Chiplin

Listing Rule 10.14, requires shareholder approval to be obtained for securities to be issued under an employee incentive scheme to a director of the entity, an associate of a director, or a person whose relationship with the entity or the director/director’s associate is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained. It is proposed that the issue of Related Party Options to Samantha Cobb, Dr Robert Peach, Dr Paul MacLeman and Dr John Chiplin who are Directors, will be made under the Employee Share Option Plan, and therefore Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14 is required.

The terms of the Related Party Options which are proposed to be issued to Samantha Cobb, Dr Robert Peach, Dr Paul MacLeman and Dr John Chiplin are as follows:

Intended use
of funds
The Directors consider the value of the Related Party Options to be reasonable remuneration. The
primary purpose of the proposed issue of Related Party Options to the Directors is to incentivise the
Directors and preserve cash resources of the Company. No funds will be raised from this option issue.

No securities have been issued under the Employee Share Option Plan since the last approval.

Eligible employees entitled to participate in the Employee Share Option Plan include those that the Board may resolve to offer Options to on terms and conditions the Board determines. Currently all Directors of the Company, being Samantha Cobb, Dr Robert Peach, Dr Paul MacLeman, Dr John Chiplin, James Williams and Liddy McCall, are entitled to participate in the Employee Share Option Plan.

Subject to approval of Resolutions 9 and 10, it is proposed that the Company will provide a loan to Samantha Cobb in respect of the amounts required to exercise the Related Party Options. Details of this loan are set out in item 12 of this Explanatory Memorandum.

If approval under Listing Rule 10.14 is obtained, approval under Listing Rule 7.1 will not be required and the Related Party Options issued to Samantha Cobb, Dr Robert Peach, Dr Paul MacLeman and Dr John Chiplin will not be included in the calculation of the Company’s annual 15% placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

Corporations Act

Under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, must not give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, unless the shareholders of the company have in general meeting approved the giving of that financial benefit to the related or an exception applies.

The grant of the Related Party Options constitutes giving a financial benefit and each of Samantha Cobb, Dr Robert Peach, Dr Paul MacLeman and Dr John Chiplin (or nominees) are related parties of the Company by virtue of their positions as a Directors.

The Directors are of the view that the exception under section 211(1) of the Corporations Act (Remuneration and reimbursement for officer or employee) applies to the proposed grants of Related Party Options which are considered reasonable remuneration in the circumstances. Accordingly, the Directors have determined that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the grant of the Related Party Options.

Shareholder approval is being sought under section 195 of the Corporations Act, which provides that a director of a public company may not vote or be present during, meetings of directors when matters in which that director holds a “material personal interest” are being considered, except in certain circumstances or unless non-interested directors pass a resolution approving the interested directors’ participation. Section 195(4) provides that if there are not enough directors to form a quorum for a directors meeting because of this restriction, one or more of the directors may call a general meeting for the purposes of passing a resolution to deal with the matter.

For the avoidance of doubt, and for the purpose of transparency and best practice corporate governance, the Company is seeking approval under section 195(4) of the Corporations Act for the issue of the Related Party Options.

Recommendations

The Directors (with Ms Cobb abstaining) recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5.

The Directors (with Dr Peach abstaining) recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 6.

The Directors (with Dr MacLeman abstaining) recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 7.

The Directors (with Dr Chiplin abstaining) recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 8.

The Chair intends to exercise all undirected proxies in favour of Resolutions 5, 6, 7 and 8. If the Chair of the Meeting is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chair is to vote on Resolutions 5, 6, 7 and 8, by signing and returning the Proxy Form, you are considered to have provided the Chair with an express authorisation for the Chair to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chair’s intention even if Resolutions 5, 6, 7 and 8 are connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the Key Management Personnel.

8. Resolution 9 – Amendment of Employee Share Option Plan

The underlying purpose of the Employee Share Option Plan is to align eligible participants interests with the Company’s interests by providing them with long term incentives in the form of Options. It is expected that this will assist the Company to attract and retain highly skilled executives, employees and contractors.

The Employee Share Option Plan was approved by the Shareholders on 10 May 2016. The proposed amendment to the Employee Share Option Plan is the addition of new clause 19 in relation to loans. The effect of the amendment is that the Board may, at its discretion, offer participants in the Employee Share Option Plan a limited recourse loan for the purposes of paying the exercise price of any Options issued under the Employee Share Option Plan ( Loan ). The Loan will not attract interest except in the case of default and will be secured by the Shares issued on the exercise of the Option ( Loan Shares ). The Loan Shares may be delivered up at any time in full and final settlement of the outstanding Loan.

By voting in favour of this resolution, any securities issued under the Employee Share Option Plan will not count towards the Company’s Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity for a period of 3 years from shareholder approval.

A copy of the amended Employee Share Option Plan can be found as an Appendix to this notice.

Recommendation

The Directors unanimously recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 9.

The Chair intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 9.

9. Resolution 10 – Approval of Limited Recourse Loan facility to Samantha Cobb

Financial assistance and taking security over shares

Section 260A of the Corporations Act allows only limited circumstances under which a company may provide financial assistance to a person to acquire shares in the company. One of these exceptions is when financial assistance is given under an employee share scheme approved by the company in general meeting as outlined in section 260C(4).

In addition, under section 259B of the Corporations Act, there are limited circumstances in which a company may take security over shares in itself. One of these exceptions is when a company takes security over shares in itself under an employee share scheme that has been approved by a resolution passed at a general meeting of the company in accordance with section 259B(2).

The approval of Resolution 9 satisfies the requirements of sections 259B and 260A of the Corporations Act in relation to the proposed Loan to Samantha Cobb.

The Chair intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 10.

10. Resolution 11 – Approval of 10% placement capacity

Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an Eligible Entity may seek Shareholder approval to allow it to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued capital over a period up to 12 months after the annual general meeting (10% Placement Capacity).

The Company is an Eligible Entity.

If Shareholders approve Resolution 11, the number of Equity Securities the Eligible Entity may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out below).

The effect of Resolution 11 will be to allow the Company to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of the Company’s fully paid ordinary securities on issue under the 10% Placement Capacity during the period up to 12 months after the Meeting, without subsequent Shareholder approval and without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity granted under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 11 is a special resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 11 for it to be passed.

10.2 Listing Rule 7.1A

Listing Rule 7.1A enables an Eligible Entity to seek shareholder approval at its annual general meeting to issue Equity Securities in addition to those under the Eligible Entity’s 15% annual placement capacity.

An Eligible Entity is one that, as at the date of the relevant annual general meeting:

  • (a) is not included in the A&P/ASX 300 Index; and (b) has a maximum market capitalisation (excluding restricted securities and securities quoted on a deferred settlement basis) of $300m.

The Company is an Eligible Entity as it is not included in the A&P/ASX 300 Index and at the date of this Notice has a current market capitalisation of $22m based on a share price of $0.22 as at 11 October 2017.

The Equity Securities must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted Equity Securities. The Company currently has one class of quoted Equity Securities, being Shares (ASX Code: 1AD).

The exact number of Equity Securities that the Company may issue under an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated according to the following formula:

Where:

(A x D) – E

A is the number of Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

  • (a) plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;

  • (b) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the 12 months;

  • (c) plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months with approval of holders of shares under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid shares under the entity's 15% placement capacity without shareholder approval;

  • (d) less the number of fully paid shares cancelled in the 12 months.

Note that A has the same meaning in Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating an entity's 15% placement capacity.

  • D is 10%.

E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.

Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.1A

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to this Resolution 11:

a) Minimum Price

The minimum price at which the Equity Securities may be issued is 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 ASX Trading Days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • (i) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or

  • (ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 ASX Trading Days of the date in paragraph (a)(i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

b) Date of Issue

The Equity Securities may be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity commencing on the date of the Meeting and expiring on the first to occur of the following:

  • (iii) 12 months after the date of this Meeting; and

  • (iv) the date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of the Company’s activities) or 11.2 (disposal of the Company’s main undertaking).

or such longer period if allowed by ASX (10% Placement Capacity Period).

Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A does not lapse if the Company’s market capitalisation subsequently exceeds $300 million or of it is included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index at some time during that period provided that the Company meets those criteria on the date of this Meeting.

c) Risk of voting dilution

Any issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will dilute the economic and voting interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue.

If Resolution 11 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Capacity, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below.

The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in Listing Rule 7.1A(2), on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the number of Equity Securities the Company will have on issue as at the date of the Meeting.

The table also shows:

  • i) two examples where variable “A” has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable “A” is based on the number of ordinary securities the Company will have on issue at the date of the Meeting. The number of ordinary securities on issue may increase as a result of issues of ordinary securities that do not require Shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or future specific placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders’ meeting; and

  • ii) two examples of where the issue price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 50% as against the current market price. The voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 10% Placement Capacity

The table above uses the following assumptions:

  1. The current shares on issue are the Shares on issue as at 11 October 2017.

  2. The issue price set out above of $0.22 is the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 11 October 2017.

  3. The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity.

  4. No Options are exercised into Shares before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities;

  5. The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.

  6. The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Capacity. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.

  7. This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under Listing Rule 7.1.

Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:

  • (i) the market price for the Company’s Equity Securities in that class may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and

  • (ii) the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Equity Securities on the date of issue or the Equity Securities are issued as part of the consideration for the acquisition of a new asset,

which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the Equity Securities.

d) Purpose of Issue under 10% Placement Capacity

The Company may issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for the following purposes:

  • (v) as cash consideration, in which case the Company intends to use funds raised for expanding or accelerating the Company’s existing business activities (including expenses associated with further development of the Company’s existing assets), pursuing other acquisitions that have a strategic fit or will otherwise add value to shareholders (including expenses associated with such acquisitions) and general working capital; or

  • (vi) as non-cash consideration for acquisition of new assets, technology and investments, in such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by Listing Rule 7.1A.3.

The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A(4) and 3.10.5A upon issue of any Equity Securities.

e) Allocation under the 10% Placement Capacity

The Company’s allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity. The identity of the allottees of Equity Securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factors including but not limited to:

  • (vii) the purpose of the issue;

  • (viii) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;

  • (ix) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;

  • (x) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company; and

  • (xi) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).

The allottees of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been determined but may include current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties or associates of a related party of the Company.

The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A(4) and 3.10.5A upon issue of any Equity Securities.

f) Previous Approval under Listing Rule 7.1A

The Company has not previously obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A.

Voting Exclusion

A voting exclusion statement is included in this Notice. As at the date of this Notice, the Company has not invited any existing Shareholder to participate in an issue of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A. Therefore, no existing Shareholders will be excluded from voting on Resolution 11.
