EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.

1. BACKGROUND ON PLACEMENT

On 15 May 2023, the Company announced that it had received firm commitments for a placement to raise up to approximately $6.5 million (before costs) through issue of 135,416,666 Shares at $0.048 per Share in two tranches ( Placement ). 76,021,640 Shares were issued in tranche 1 to raise approximately $3.65 million (before costs), and a further 59,395,026 Shares will be issued subject to Shareholder approvals to raise a further approximately $2.85 million (before costs). The number of Placement Shares to be issued in tranche 1 and tranche 2 differs slightly to the Appendix 3B released to ASX on 15 May 2023 (which included 77,592,746 Shares being issued under tranche 1 and 57,823,920 Shares being issued under tranche 2) due to a participant moving from tranche 1 to tranche 2.

Resolution 1 seeks approval from Shareholders for the ratification of the initial 76,021,640 Shares issued under Tranche 1 of the Placement on 22 May 2023.

Resolution 2 seeks approval from Shareholders to issue a further 38,561,693 Shares under tranche 2 of the Placement to unrelated investor participants in the Placement. The remainder of the tranche 2 Placement Shares are the subject of Resolution 3 below.

Resolution 3 seeks the approval for one of the Company’s Directors, Mr Mark McConnell, to participate in tranche 2 of the Placement up to $1 million via issue of 20,833,333 Shares at the Placement issue price of $0.048. This will bring the total Shares to be issued under tranche 2 of the Placement to 59,395,026 Shares and will raise a further approximately $2.85 million (before costs) subject to Shareholder approval of Resolutions 2 and 3.

The Company also announced its intention to undertake a share purchase plan to raise up to a further $2.5 million from eligible shareholders.

Use of Funds

Funds raised under the Placement and the share purchase plan are intended to be used to fund:

  • processes to further streamline onboarding the Company’s significant pipeline of enterprise customers;

  • key enhancements to the Company’s suite of TrafficGuard products;

  • development of new product features and capabilities; and

  • sales and marketing initiatives to further grow the Company’s customer base, including selfserve customers.

2. RESOLUTION 1 – RATIFICATION OF TRANCHE 1 OF PLACEMENT

2.1 Background to Listing Rule 7.1

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of Equity Securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12-month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

The issue of the Shares under tranche 1 of the Placement does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12

4

month period following the date of issue of those Shares.

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made, provided that the issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Shares under tranche 1 of the Placement.

Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of those tranche 1 Shares.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the 76,021,640 Placement Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the date of issue of the LR7.1 Placement.

2.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.5

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 1:

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • 76,021,640 Shares were issued to existing long-term sophisticated investor shareholders and new high quality institutional shareholders determined by the Board in consultation with MST Financial who acted as Lead Manager to the Placement.

In accordance with paragraph 7.4 of ASX Guidance Note 21, the Company confirms that no related parties of the Company, members of the Company’s Key Management Personnel, advisers of the Company or an associate of any of these parties were issued more than 1% of the issued capital of the Company under the Placement other than Substantial Shareholder Daws & Son Pty Ltd who will receive 15,859,792 Shares in the Placement as part of tranche 2 of the Placement subject to Shareholder approval being sought in Resolution 2 below;

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • the Shares were issued on 22 May 2023;

==> picture [12 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • the Shares issued were all fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares. The Shares will rank equally in all respects with the existing Shares on issue;

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

the issue price of the Shares was $0.048 per Share;

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • funds raised will be used as set out in Section 1 above; and

==> picture [11 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • a voting exclusion statement is included in Resolution 1 of the Notice.

2.3 Directors’ recommendation

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Therefore, the Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.

5

3. RESOLUTION 2 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE TRANCHE 2 OF PLACEMENT

3.1 Background to Listing Rule 7.1

As summarised in Section 2.1 above, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of Equity Securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

The proposed issue of the Shares under tranche of the Placement does not fall within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and exceeds available capacity under the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 2 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Shares under Tranche 2 of the placement. In addition, the issue of those Shares will be excluded from the calculation of the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 2 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of those Shares under tranche 2 of the Placement, potential reducing the amount raised under the placement by $1.85 million.

Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of the tranche 2 Placement Shares.

3.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.3

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 2:

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • the Shares will be issued to existing long-term sophisticated investor shareholders and new high quality institutional shareholders determined by the Board in consultation with MST Financial who acted as Lead Manager to the Placement.

In accordance with paragraph 7.2 of ASX Guidance Note 21, the Company confirms that no related parties of the Company, members of the Company’s Key Management Personnel, advisers of the Company or an associate of any of these parties will be issued Shares under Tranche 2 of the Placement other than Substantial Shareholder Daws & Son Pty Ltd who will receive 15,859,792 Shares in the Placement as part of tranche 2 subject to Shareholder approval;

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • the maximum number of Shares to be issued is 38,561,693. The Shares issued will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares;

==> picture [12 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • the Shares will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules) and it is intended that issue of the Shares will occur on the same date;

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • the issue price of the Shares will be $0.048 per Share. The Company will not receive any other consideration for the issue of the Shares;

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • the purpose of the issue of the Shares is to raise capital, which the Company intends to use as set out in Section 1 above; and

==> picture [11 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • a voting exclusion statement is included in Resolution 2 of the Notice.

3.3 Director Recommendation

The Directors consider that the Placement is in the best interests of Shareholders as it will permit the Company to grow the business as described in the use of funds above. Therefore, the Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

4. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL FOR DIRECTOR MARK MCCONNELL TO PARTICIPATE IN PLACEMENT

4.1 General

As noted above, Director Mark McConnell, through one of his associated entities, has indicated his willingness to participate in the Placement up to $1 million.

4.2 Listing Rule 10.11

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that a company must not issue Equity Securities to a Related Party without the approval of shareholders. Pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2 exception 14, where approval under Listing Rule 10.11 is obtained, approval is not required under Listing Rule 7.1 and the issue of securities will not be included in the Company’s 15% limit.

Mr Mark McConnell falls within the category set out in Listing Rule 10.11.1 by virtue of being a Director of Adveritas and is a related party of the Company.

If Resolution 3 is not approved, the 20,833,333 Shares at an issue price of $0.048 per Share under the Placement to Mr McConnell will not be issued and the Company will not receive the additional $1 million in Placement proceeds. If Resolution 3 is approved, those Shares will be issued to Mr McConnell (or nominee) at an issue price of $0.048 per Share and the Company will receive an additional $1 million in Placement proceeds to bring the total amount raised under the Placement to $6.5 million (before costs) (assuming Resolution 2 is passed).

4.3

Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 10.13

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11 to approve the issue of a total of 20,833,333 Shares at an issue price of $0.048 per Share to Mr Mark McConnell (or his nominee).

In accordance with Listing Rule 10.13 the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 2:

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

the maximum number of securities to be issued is 20,833,333 Shares;

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • the Shares are fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares. The Shares will rank equally in all respects with the existing Shares on issue;

==> picture [12 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • the issue price of the Shares will be $0.048 per Share;

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

  • 20,833,333 Shares will be issued to Mr Mark McConnell (or his nominee). This issue of Shares does not form part of Mr McConnell’s remuneration and is not intended to incentivise Mr McConnell in his role as a Director of the Company;

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • Mr McConnell falls within the category set out in Listing Rule 10.11.1 by virtue of being a Director of Adveritas and is a related party of the Company;

==> picture [11 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

  • the issue will occur on a single date no later than one (1) month after the date of the General Meeting or such later date to the extent permitted by an ASX waiver of the Listing Rules;

7

==> picture [13 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

funds raised from the issue will be used as described in Section 1 above; and

==> picture [13 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

a voting exclusion statement is included in Resolution 3 of the Notice.

5. RESOLUTION 4 – AMENDMENT OF CONSTITUTION

5.1 General

A company may modify or repeal its constitution or a provision of its constitution by special resolution of Shareholders.

5.2 Clause 13A – Use of technology at general meetings

Resolution 4 is a special resolution which will enable the Company to amend its existing Constitution ( Amended Constitution ) to insert an additional clause 13A, which permits the use of technology at general meetings, including wholly virtual meetings, to the extent permitted under the Corporations Act, Listing Rules and applicable law as follows:

13A USE OF TECHNOLOGY AT GENERAL MEETINGS

13A.1 Use of technology

  • (a) To the extent permitted under the Corporations Act, Listing Rules and any other applicable law, a general meeting may be convened using virtual technology only, or at two or more venues, provided that the form of technology used provides all shareholders entitled to attend the meeting, as a whole, a reasonable opportunity to participate in the meeting without being physically present in the same place.

  • (b) The provisions of this Constitution relating to general meetings apply, so far as they can and with any necessary changes to ensure compliance with the Corporations Act, Listing Rules and any other applicable law, to general meetings held using that technology.

  • (c) Where a general meeting is held using virtual technology only or at two or more venues using any form of technology:

  • (i) a Shareholder participating in the meeting is taken to be present in person at the meeting;

  • (ii) any documents required or permitted to be tabled at the meeting will be taken to have been tabled at the meeting if the document is given, or made available, to the persons entitled to attend the meeting (whether physically or using technology) before or during the meeting; and

  • (iii) the meeting is taken to be held at the physical venue set out in the notice of meeting, or at the registered office of the Company if the meeting is held using virtual technology only.

8

13A.2 Communication of meeting documents

To the extent permitted under the Corporations Act, Listing Rules and any other applicable law, any document that is required or permitted to be given to a Shareholder that relates to a Shareholders’ meeting (including, but not limited to, the notice of meeting) may be distributed:

  • (a) by means of electronic communication; or

(b) by giving the Shareholder (by means of an electronic communication or otherwise) sufficient information to allow the person to access the document electronically,

in accordance with the Corporations Act.

A copy of the Amended Constitution is available for review by Shareholders at the office of the Company. A copy of the Amended Constitution can also be sent to Shareholders upon request to the Company Secretary. Shareholders are invited to contact the Company if they have any queries or concerns.

5.3 Board recommendation

The Directors consider that adding the new clause 13A to the Company’s existing Constitution brings the Constitution into line with modern meeting and communication methods that have evolved and become more common since the Covid pandemic that started in 2020. Therefore, the Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4.
