4 RESOLUTIONS 3 (A) AND 3 (B) – RATIFICATION OF ISSUE OF SHARES TO EMPLOYEES

4.1 Background

On 21[st] September 2012, the Company issued 2,002,388 fully paid ordinary shares to employees in consideration of these employees agreeing to enter into long term contracts with the Company and accepting significant post-employment restraint provisions. Such arrangements represent significant value to the Company as it ensures the long term commitment of the key employees.

On 20[th] September 2012, the Company issued 1,507,938 fully paid ordinary shares to employees to satisfy contracted bonus arrangements upon the achievement of key performance indicators by those employees.

These issues were made without the need for Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1

4.2 Purpose of resolution and listing rule 7.1

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 prohibits a listed entity from issuing or agreeing to issue more than 15% of its issued capital in a 12 month period without Shareholder approval (15 % Limit) , unless an exception applies.

Pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4, an issue of securities made without approval is deemed to have been made with Shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1provided that:

  • (c) the issue did not breach the 15% Limit; and

  • (d) the company in general meeting subsequently approves the issue.

Shareholder ratification for the issue of the employee shares is now sought pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 to reinstate the Company’s capacity to issue up to 15% of its issued capital, if required, in the next 12 months without Shareholder approval.

4.3 Notice requirements under listing rule 7.5

It is a requirement of ASX Listing Rule 7.5, that a listed entity seeking subsequent Shareholder approval under listing rule 7.4 provides the following information:

(a) the total number of shares issued :

  • 2,002,388 fully paid ordinary Shares (Resolution 3A)

1,507,938 fully paid ordinary Shares (Resolution 3B)

(b) the price at which the securities were issued :

The Shares were issued for non-cash consideration. The consideration for the issues was the entry into long term contracts by the key employees, their agreement to accept significant post-employment restraints and achieving key performance indicators. The shares were issued based at deemed prices of $0.197 & $0.201 per share (Resolution 3A) and $0.20 (Resolution 3B).

(c) the terms of the Shares :

The shares allotted and issued are identical to the Company’s existing fully paid ordinary Shares.

5 RESOLUTION 4 – ISSUE OF SHARES TO A DIRECTOR

5.1 Background

On 2 October 2012, the Company entered into a contract with Mr Raymond Malone and agreed, subject to Shareholder approval, to issue 2,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares to Mr Malone in consideration for Mr Malone extending his executive contract with the Company. Under the terms of the contract, Mr Malone agrees to continue in his role as managing director of the Company until October 2017. Mr Malone's previous contract allowed Mr Malone to step down as Managing Director and transfer to another position within the Company at any time after July 2012.

The Board determined that retaining Mr Malone in his current role was overwhelmingly in the best interests of the Company, given his outstanding leadership to date, and that the share issue was reasonable recompense to secure Mr Malone in the role of managing director for a further 5 year period.

Importantly, Mr Malone's new contract contains a clawback provision requiring the return of a proportional number of shares (or a proportional amount of cash) in the event that Mr Malone resigns from his position prior to October 2017.

If this resolution is not passed, Mr Malone’s contract provides for a cash payment in lieu of shares calculated on a VWAP for the Company's shares based on the 30 day period prior to the AGM.

10

5.2 Purpose of resolution and listing rule 10.11

ASX Listing Rule 10.11, prohibits an entity from issuing securities to a related party without Shareholder approval or agreeing to issue securities unless such agreement is conditional upon Shareholder approval. As a director of the Company, Mr Ray Malone is a related party.

If approval is given under ASX Listing Rule 10.11, approval is not required under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (discussed at paragraph 4.2 above).

By obtaining Shareholder approval, the Company also retains the ability to issue further shares or options of up to fifteen percent (15%) of its ordinary shares under Chapter 7 of the ASX Listing Rules if needed to capitalise on appropriate opportunities over the next 12 months.

The issue of the shares to Mr Malone will not be made under the Company’s existing share and option plans.

5.3 Notice requirements under listing rule 10.13

a) The name of the allottee

Mr Raymond Malone or his nominee

  • b) The maximum number of shares to be issued

2,000,000 fully paid ordinary Shares

c) The Date of issue which must not be more than 1 month after the date of the meeting ;

Issue of these shares will be within one month of the date of this meeting

d) The Issue price

Although no money is payable by Mr Malone, the Shares have a deemed issue price of $0.15 being the Share price as at the time the Board offered to make the issue.

e) Terms of the issue

These ordinary Shares will have the same terms and conditions as all other ordinary shares in the same class

f) Intended use of the funds

No funds will be raised by the issue of the Shares the subject to this resolution as the Shares were issued for non-cash consideration.

6 RESOLUTION 5 – APPROVAL OF 10% PLACEMENT ISSUE

6.1 GENERAL

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A enables ‘eligible entities’ to issue up to 10% of their issued share capital through placements over a 12 month period after the Annual General Meeting ( 10%

11

Placement Facility ). The 10% Placement Facility is in addition to the Company’s 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (discussed at paragraph 4.2 above).

The Company is an eligible entity for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1A as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. The Company’s current market capitalisation is approximately $68,565,988.

This resolution must take the form of a special resolution which requires at least 75% of the votes that may be cast by members who are entitled to vote, to be cast in favour of the resolution. This includes voting via proxies.

The Company is now seeking Shareholder approval to have the ability to issue Shares under the 10% Placement Facility. If passed, this resolution would effectively allow the Company to issue up to 25% of its issued capital in the next 12 months without seeking any additional Shareholder approvals. The Shares issued under the 10% Placement Facility must be an existing class of security currently quoted on the ASX, that is fully paid ordinary Shares.

6.2 Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that eligible entities which have obtained Shareholder approval at an annual general meeting may issue or agree to issue, during the 12 month period after the date of the annual general meeting, the number of ‘Equity Securities’ (as that term is defined in the Listing Rules) is calculated in accordance with the following formula:

(A x D) – E

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

  • (a) plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in ASX 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 ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4;

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

Note that A is has the same meaning in ASX 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 ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of the issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of Shareholders under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.4.

6.3 Issue price restrictions

Shareholders are advised that it is a condition of approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A that the issue price for any securities issue under the 10% Placement Facility must not be less than 75% of the VWAP calculated over the 15 trading days immediately before:

  • (i) the date on which the price at which the 10% Placement Facility is agreed or issued; or

  • (ii) if the securities are not issued within 5 trading days of the date referred to in paragraph (i) the date on which the securities are issued.

(Maximum Discount)

12

6.4 Specific Information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.3A

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A, information is provided in relation to the approval of the 10% Placement Facility as follows:

(a) The minimum price at which the Equity Securities will be issued:

The Company has not determined the price at which securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility will be issued but in any event, the issue price cannot be less than the Maximum Discount referred to above.

(b) The risk of economic and voting dilution of existing Shareholders that may arise from an issue:

If Resolution 5 is approved by the Shareholders and the Company issues securities under the 10% Placement Facility, the existing Shareholders’ voting power in the Company will be diluted as shown in the below table (in the case of unlisted options, only if the unlisted options are exercised).

There is a risk that:

  • (i) the market price for the Company’s securities may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the securities than on the date of the Annual General Meeting; and

  • (ii) the securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for the Company’s Equity Securities on the issue date,

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

The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of ordinary securities for variable “A” calculated in accordance with the formula in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A(2) as at the date of this Notice of 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 shares the Company has on issue. 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 ASX Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders’ meeting; and

  • (ii) two examples of where the price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 50% as against the current market price.

The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

  • (i) The Company issues the maximum securities available under the ASX Listing Rule 7.1A being 10% of the Company’s shares on issue at the date of the Meeting;

  • (ii) The table does not demonstrate an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting;

  • (iii) The table only demonstrates the effect of issues of securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. It does not consider placements made under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, the “15% rule”;

  • (iv) The price of ordinary securities is deemed for the purposes of the table above to be $0.24, being the closing price of the Company’s listed securities on ASX on 16 October 2012 ( Deemed Price ). The Deemed Price is indicative only and does not consider the 20% discount to market that the securities may be placed at;

  • (v) The table does not demonstrate the effect of listed or unlisted options being issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A, it only considers the issue of the fully paid ordinary securities.

(c) The date by which securities under this listing rule will be issued .

The Company has not made a determination as to when any shares under the 10%Placement Facility will be issued. In any event, the final date of issuing shares under the 10% Placement Facility is 12 months from the date of this resolution or earlier if Shareholders approve a transaction under ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities or ASX Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking).

14

(d) The purpose for which the securities may be issued including for non-cash consideration :

The Company intends to make the 10% Placement Facility available for earnings accretive acquisition opportunities

In particular, the shares may be made available to vendors or joint venture partners in lieu of cash payments, thereby, limiting strain on the Company’s cash flow.

Any issue of shares under the 10% Placement Facility would be subject to the Board being satisfied that the issue is in the best interests of the Company. As at the date of this Explanatory Memorandum, the Company has not formed any intention in respect of any particular acquisitions or collaborations.

(e) The Company ’ s allocation policy

The Company’s allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Facility. No allottees have been determined as at the date of this Explanatory Memorandum. Should the Company determine to issue securities under the 10% Placement Facility, the allottees will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may be a mix of existing and new Shareholders, having regard to the needs and requirements of the Company at the relevant time.

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

The Directors unanimously recommend Shareholders vote in favour of Special Resolution 5.

Annual General Meeting Proxy Form

AMA Group Limited

INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING PROXY FORM

  1. Your pre-printed name and address is as it appears on the share register of the Company. If you are Issuer Sponsored and this information is incorrect, make the correction on the form, sign it and return it to us. Securityholders sponsored by a broker on the CHESS subregister should advise their broker of any changes. Please note, you cannot change ownership of your securities using this form.

  2. Completion of a proxy form will not prevent individual shareholders from attending the Meeting in person if they wish. Where a shareholder completes and lodges a valid proxy form and attends the Meeting in person, then the proxy’s authority to speak and vote for that shareholder is suspended while the shareholder is present at the Meeting.

  3. A shareholder of the Company entitled to attend and vote is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies. Where more than one proxy is appointed, each proxy must be appointed to represent a specified proportion of the shareholder’s voting rights. If the shareholder appoints two proxies and the appointment do not specify this proportion, each proxy may exercise half of the votes.

  4. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company.

  5. If you mark the abstain box for a particular item, you are directing your proxy not to vote on that item on a show of hands or on a poll and that your shares are not to be counted in computing the required majority on a poll.

  6. If a representative of a company shareholder is to attend the Meeting, a properly executed original (or certified copy) of the appropriate “Certificate of Appointment of Corporate Representative” should be lodged with the Company prior to the meeting or produced for admission to the meeting on the day of the meeting.

  7. If a representative as Power of Attorney of a shareholder is to attend the meeting, a properly executed original (or originally certified copy) of an appropriate Power of Attorney should be produced for admission to the Meeting. Previously lodged Powers of Attorney will be disregarded by the Company.
