4. GRANT OF PERFORMANCE RIGHTS TO CEO

The Company is seeking the approval of shareholders under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 for the grant of Performance Rights to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Mr Ryan Millar, under the Company’s Performance Rights and Options Plan (PROP) on the terms set out below.

ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, ASX 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 securities it had on issue at the start of that period.

The proposed grant of Performance Rights to the CEO does not fall within any of the exceptions to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

Accordingly, grant of the Performance Rights requires shareholder approval in order for this issue of securities not to use up part of the 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under ASX listing Rule 7.1 for the 12-month period following the issue date.

Performance Period for the Performance Rights

Three years commencing on the date of commencement of employment (26 September 2022) and ending on 25 September 2025.

Date of Grant

If approval is obtained, the Performance Rights will be granted to Mr Millar as soon as practicable after this AGM and in any case within 3 months after the AGM.

Number of Performance Rights

The number of Performance Rights to be granted to Mr Millar has been determined using the ‘face value’ methodology, that is, by dividing an amount equivalent to 40% of Mr Millar’s current total fixed remuneration of $340,000 by a share price of $0.12 for the base Longterm Incentive (LTI) award, with a further 20% to be allocated as a significant stretch target. Based on this formula, it is proposed that Mr Millar be granted a total of 1,700,000 Performance Rights.

The Performance Rights will be granted at no cost to Mr Millar and no amount is payable on vesting of the Performance Rights if the performance conditions are met. Each Performance Right entitles Mr Millar to one fully paid ordinary share in the Company which, when issued, will rank equally with shares in the same class

Performance Conditions

The performance conditions for the vesting of the Performance Rights are as follows, to be achieved within a vesting period of 3 years from date of grant. The baseline share price on which the vesting conditions for the Performance Rights are assessed is $0.12.

  • 1,133,333 Performance Rights: Achievement of a Total Shareholder Return (TSR) Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 30%;

  • 566,667 Performance Rights: Achievement of TSR CAGR of 60%

At the Board’s discretion vesting may occur at the time of achievement of each performance condition within the 3-year performance period.

Other Material Terms

Unvested Performance Rights do not entitle the holder to any voting rights, or legal or beneficial interest in the Company’s shares. Unvested Performance Rights will not be transferrable or quoted on ASX and do not confer: any entitlement to a dividend, any right to a return of capital, any right to participate in the surplus profits or assets of the Company upon a winding up, or any right to participate in new issues of securities.

If this grant is approved, some or all of the Performance Rights granted to Mr Millar may vest, lapse or remain on foot on cessation of employment, subject to the Board’s discretion. Under the PROP, the Board also has discretion to vest or lapse the CEO’s Performance Rights in defined change of control circumstances such as a bona fide unconditional takeover bid where the bidder has acquired at least 50.1% of the Company’s issued shares, or a court-approved scheme of arrangement.

The PROP rules also give the Company the discretion to lapse unvested Performance Rights, and claw back vested shares in certain circumstances (such as dishonesty, fraud or breach of material obligations).

A summary of the material terms of the PROP is set out at Schedule 1.

The PROP can be amended by the Board, subject to the ASX Listing Rules.

Other Information Required by the ASX Listing Rules

Shareholder approval is being sought for the grant of the Performance Rights to the CEO in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.1. If resolution 4 is passed, the Performance Rights will be issued and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.1 the Performance Rights will not use any of the Company’s 15% placement capacity. If resolution 4 is not passed, the Board may resolve to issue Performance Rights in accordance with the PROP and use part of the Company’s 15% placement capacity. The Board may resolve to issue Options within the maximum limit of 8,000,000 options currently permitted under the PROP without affecting the Company's placement capacity. The Board may also consider other forms of remuneration for the CEO’s Long-term Incentive and re-negotiation of these remuneration arrangements may require additional cash payments.

The Performance Rights will form the Long-term Incentive component of Mr Millar’s remuneration. The Performance Rights will be granted for nil cash payment, no loan is involved and there will be no amount payable on vesting and exercise. The Board believes the Performance Rights provide an appropriate and meaningful form of Long-term Incentive remuneration that aligns with shareholder interests but does not provide the CEO with the full benefits of share ownership (including voting rights) unless and until the Performance Rights vest.

No previous Performance Rights have been issued under the PROP.

Voting Exclusion Statement

In accordance with the Corporations Act, the Company will disregard any votes cast on resolution 4 by:

  • the holder votes on the resolution in accordance with directions given by the beneficiary to the holder to vote in that way.

If Resolution 5 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Options to Mr Cornish under the PROP. As approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required, the issue of the Options will not use any of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity. If Resolution 5 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Options to Mr Cornish.

Information provided to Shareholders

For the purposes of the approval sought under ASX Listing Rule 10.14 and in accordance with the requirements of ASX Listing Rule 10.15 and for all other purposes, the following information is provided to shareholders in respect of the proposed grant of options to Mr Cornish under the PROP.

6. APPROVAL OF PERFORMANCE RIGHTS AND OPTIONS PLAN

Background

Resolution 6 seeks shareholder approval, pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13, to renew the approval of the Company’s Performance Rights Plan (PROP) and to enable the securities granted under the PROP and shares issued upon the vesting or exercise of such securities, to be exempted from contributing towards the rolling annual limit of 15% of issued Shares prescribed by Listing Rule 7.1.

The PROP was approved by the Board in December 2019 prior to Initial ASX Listing of the Company in April 2020 and details of the scheme were disclosed in the Prospectus in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(a). A copy of the PROP is available on the Company’s website at www.aml3d.com/investors. The Company seeks shareholder approval to renew the approval of the PROP for a further three years. No amendments to the existing PROP are proposed.

The PROP is intended to assist the Company to attract and retain key personnel and to provide a long-term remuneration incentive that aligns the interests of key personnel with the Company’s shareholders.

ASX Listing Rule 7.2

ASX Listing Rule 7.2 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at that commencement of that 12 month period.

ASX Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13 operates as one of the exceptions to Listing Rule 7.1. The effect of shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13 is that any issues of securities under the Plan are treated as having been made with approval of shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1. Approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 13 will be effective for a period of three years. Exception 13(b) is only available if and to the extent that the number of equity securities issued under the scheme does not exceed the maximum number set out in the entity’s notice of meeting dispatched to shareholders in respect of the meeting at which shareholder approval was obtained pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b). Exception 13(b) also ceases to be available if there is a material change to the terms of the scheme from those set out in the Notice of Meeting.

Required information

If Resolution 6 is passed, the issue by the Company of any Performance Rights or Options (up to the maximum number of securities stated in the Technical Information section below) under the PROP will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 for a period of 3 years.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company must seek Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.14 in respect of any future issues of Performance Rights under the Plan to a related party or a person whose relationship with the Company or the related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained.

If Resolution 6 is not passed, the current approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(a) for issue of a

maximum of 8,000,000 Options will cease in April 2023. After that time the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of Performance Rights and Options under the PROP to eligible participants, but any issues of Performance Rights will reduce, to that extent, the Company’s capacity to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the issue of the Performance Rights.

Technical Information

In accordance with the requirements of ASX Listing Rule 7.2 Exception 13(b), the Company provides the following information:

  • the holder votes on the resolution in accordance with directions given by the beneficiary to the holder to vote in that way.

Recommendation

The Board recommends that shareholders vote IN FAVOUR of approving the Performance Rights and Options Plan.

7. RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF SHARES

On 20 July 2022, the Company issued 37,605,038 fully paid ordinary shares as a private placement in accordance with the Company’s placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (Placement). This resolution seeks the approval of shareholders to ratify the issue of these shares under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.4.

ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, ASX 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 securities it had on issue at the start of that period.

The Placement does not fit within any of the exceptions to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and, as it has not yet been approved by the Company’s shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under ASX listing Rule 7.1 for the 12-month period following the Share issue date.

ASX 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. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under ASX 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 into the future without having to obtain shareholder approval under that rule.

To this end, resolution 7 seeks shareholder approval of the Placement under and for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.4.

If resolution 7 is passed, the issue will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of equity securities it can issue without shareholder approval over the 12month period following the Placement date.

If resolution 7 is not passed, the Share Issue will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities it can issue without shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the Placement date.

Required information

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rules 7.4 and 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to the ratification of the issue of the Share Issue.

The Placement was issued to Placement Participants, being institutional, sophisticated and professional investors to whom a prospectus does not need to be provided under the Corporations Act, and none of whom is a related party of the Company. The Placement Participants did not include any substantial shareholders of the Company. Venture Corporate Advisory Pty Ltd (VCA) acted as Corporate Advisor for the Placement. The Corporate Advisor identified investors through a bookbuild process, which involved VCA seeking

Notice of 2022 Annual General Meeting

expressions of interest to participate in the capital raising from non-related parties of the Company.

A total of 37,605,038 fully paid ordinary shares were issued in the Placement at an issue price of $0.0714 per share to raise $2.68 million before costs. These shares rank equally in all respects with the Company’s existing shares on issue.

The proceeds from the issue of the Placement are intended to be applied to:

  • Accelerate growth initiatives, following recent contract wins;

  • Build on the existing business development team and sales and marketing pipeline;

  • Continue the enhancement of AML3D technology to remain a market leader; and

  • Meet the working capital demands of a scaling business.

Voting Exclusions

The Company will disregard any votes cast in favour of resolution 7 by or on behalf of VCA and any person who was issued shares in the Placement, or their respective associates, save where it is cast by:

  • A person as proxy or attorney for another person who is entitled to vote on the resolution, in accordance with directions given to the proxy or attorney to vote on the resolution in that way;

  • The chair of the meeting as proxy or attorney for a person who is entitled to vote on the resolution, in accordance with a direction given to the chair to vote on the resolution as the chair decides; or

  • A holder acting solely in a nominee, trustee, custodial or other fiduciary capacity on behalf of a beneficiary provided the following conditions are met:

  • The beneficiary provides written confirmation to the holder that they are not excluded from voting, and are not an associate of a person excluded from voting, on the resolution; and

  • The holder votes on the resolution in accordance with directions given by the beneficiary to the holder to vote in that way.

Recommendation

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote IN FAVOUR of ratifying the Placement.

8. APPROVAL OF 10% PLACEMENT CAPACITY

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, ASX 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 securities it had on issue at the start of that period. Under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A however, an eligible entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its AGM, to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25%.

An ‘eligible entity’ means an entity which is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and which has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. The Company is an eligible entity for these purposes.

Resolution 8 seeks shareholder approval by way of special resolution for the Company to have the additional 10% capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A to issue equity securities without shareholder approval.

If resolution 8 is passed, the Company will be able to issue equity securities up to the combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without any further shareholder approval.

If resolution 8 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the additional 10% capacity to issue equity securities without shareholder approval provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A and will remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing equity securities without shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.

Item 8 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in attendance, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative).

Eligibility

An eligible entity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A is one which (at the date of the relevant AGM) has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less and is not included in the S&P / ASX 300 Index. The Company is an eligible entity for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.

The exact number of equity securities that may be issued pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 which provides that eligible entities which have obtained shareholder approval at an AGM may, during the period of the approval, issue or agree to issue a number of equity securities calculated as follows:

(A x D) - E

Where:

A is the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

  • plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the 12 months under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 other than exception 9, 16 or 17,

  • plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period on the conversion of

Notice of 2022 Annual General Meeting

ASX:AL3 AML3D Limited

| 11

convertible securities within ASX Listing Rule 7.2 exception 9 where:

  • the convertible securities were issued or agreed to be issued before the commencement of the relevant period; or

  • the issue of, or agreement to issue, the convertible securities was approved, or taken under these rules to have been approved, under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4

  • plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period under an agreement to issue securities within ASX Listing Rule 7.2 exception 6 where:

  • the agreement was entered into before the commencement of the relevant period; or

  • the agreement or issue was approved, or taken under these rules to have been approved, under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4,

  • plus the number of any other fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period with approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or rule 7.4,

  • plus the number of partly paid ordinary securities that became fully paid in the relevant period;

  • less the number of fully paid ordinary securities cancelled in the relevant period.

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 relevant period where the issue or agreement has not been subsequently approved by the holders of its ordinary securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.4.

The “relevant period” means:

  • if the entity has been admitted to the official list for 12 months or more, the 12 month period immediately preceding the date of the issue or agreement; or

  • if the entity has been admitted to the official list for less than 12 months, the period from the date the entity was admitted to the official list to the date immediately preceding the date of the issue or agreement.

Any equity securities issued under the 10% Placement Capacity must be in an existing quoted class of the Company's equity securities. The Company presently has one class of quoted securities, being ordinary fully paid shares (Shares) (ASX Code: AL3).

Required information

The following information is provided to Shareholders to allow them to assess the resolution in Item 8, including for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.3A.

Minimum price

Any equity securities issued by the Company under Listing Rule 7.1A can only be issued at a price that is no less than 75% of the volume weighted average market price for securities in that class calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • (a) the date on which the price at which the securities are to be issued is agreed; or

  • (b) the date on which the securities are issued if the securities are not issued within ten trading days of the date on which the issue price is agreed.

Dilution to existing Shareholders

If Resolution 8 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues securities under the 10% Placement Capacity, the existing economic and voting interests in the Company will be diluted. There is a risk that the market price of the Company's securities may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the AGM and the securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price on the issue date.

The table below shows a number of hypothetical scenarios for a 10% placement as required by ASX Listing Rule 7.3A.4 where the number of the Company's shares on issue (variable "A" in the formula in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2) has remained current or increased by either 50% or 100% and the share price has decreased by 50%, remained current or increased by 100% based on the closing share price on ASX at 3 October 2022.

This table has been prepared based on the following assumptions:

  • (c) The price of ordinary securities is deemed for the purposes of the table above to be $0.096, being the closing price of the Company’s listed Shares on 3 October 2022 (Deemed Price). The Deemed Price is indicative only;

  • (d) Variable A is based on the Shares on issue as at 3 October 2022.

  • (e) The actual number of Shares that the Company will have capacity to issue under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated at the date of issue of the equity securities in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2;

  • (f) The Company issues the maximum number of securities available under the additional 10% placement;

  • (g) No unlisted options are exercised into fully paid ordinary shares before the date of the issue of securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. The Company has 9,500,000 unlisted Options on issue at the date of this Notice of Meeting.

  • (h) The table shows only the effect of issues of securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1;

  • (i) 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%. The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of the placements under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A, based on that Shareholder's holding at the date of the AGM; and

  • (j) Funds raised are before any capital raising costs which may be incurred.

Allocation policy

The Company's allocation policy is dependent upon the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% placement. The identity of allottees of equity securities will be determined on a case by case basis having regard to factors including but not limited to the following:

  • (a) the methods of raising funds that are then available to the Company;

  • (b) the effect of the issue of the equity securities on the control of the Company;

  • (c) the financial situation and solvency of the Company; and

  • (d) advice from professional and corporate advisers (if applicable).

Allottees under the 10% placement have not been determined as at the date of this Notice of Meeting and may include existing and/or new Shareholders but cannot include any related parties or associates of a related party of the Company.

Information provided for compliance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A.6

Shareholders approved the additional 10% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A at the 2021 AGM held on 24 November 2021.

In the 12 months preceding the date of this Notice of Meeting, the Company has issued 15,036,381 equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.2.

Recommendation

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote IN FAVOUR of approving the additional 10% placement capacity.

10% Placement Period

Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A is valid from the date of the AGM until the earlier of:

  • (a) 12 months after the AGM; or

  • (b) the time and date of the Company’s next AGM; or

  • (c) the time and date of approval by Shareholders of 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).

Purpose of 10% additional placement

The Company may seek to issue securities for cash consideration under the 10% placement to use the funds for working capital, capital expenditure, acquisitions or capital management activities deemed by the Board to be in the best interests of the Company.

Compliance with ASX Listing Rules 7.1A.4

The Company will comply with any disclosure obligations under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.4.

9 . RENEWAL OF PARTIAL TAKEOVER PLEBISCITE FOR A FURTHER THREE YEARS

The partial takeover plebiscites (Plebiscites) set out in Rule 36 of the Company’s Constitution were last approved by shareholders of the Company at a General Meeting on 25 October 2019, when the current Constitution of the Company was adopted, with effect from 5 December 2019.

The Plebiscites prohibit registration of transfers of shares acquired under an off-market proportional takeover bid unless a resolution is passed by shareholders approving the bid. As provided in Rule 36.6, Rule 36 ceases to have effect after three years unless renewed. Accordingly, it is appropriate to consider renewing the Plebiscites by renewing Rule 36, in the same form as last approved by shareholders in 2019.

Required Information

The Corporations Act requires that the following information be provided to shareholders when they are considering the renewal of proportional takeover provisions in a constitution.

If these Plebiscites are renewed by shareholders, they will be in exactly the same terms as the current provisions in Rule 36 of the Constitution and will operate for 3 years from the date of the AGM. A copy of the Company’s Constitution is available on the Company’s website at www.aml3d.com/investors.

What is a proportional takeover bid? Why do shareholders need the proportional takeover approval plebiscites?

A proportional off-market takeover bid involves the bidder offering to buy a proportion only of each shareholder’s shares in the Company. This means that control of the Company may pass without members having the chance to sell all their shares to the bidder. It also means the bidder may take control of the Company without paying an adequate amount for gaining control.

In order to deal with this possibility, a company may provide in its constitution that:

  • in the event of a proportional takeover bid being made for shares in the Company, shareholders are required to vote by ordinary resolution and collectively decide whether to accept or reject the offer; and

  • the majority decision of the Company’s shareholders will be binding on all individual shareholders.

The Directors consider that members should be able to vote on whether a proportional takeover bid ought to proceed given such a bid might otherwise allow control of the Company to change without members being given the opportunity to dispose of all their shares for a satisfactory control premium. The Directors also believe that the right to vote on a proportional takeover bid may avoid members feeling pressure to accept the bid even if they do not want it to succeed.

What is the effect of the approval provisions?

If a proportional takeover bid is made, Directors must ensure that members vote on a resolution to approve the bid more than 14 days before the bid period closes.

The vote is decided on a simple majority. Each person who, as at the end of the day on which the first offer under the bid was made, held bid class securities is

entitled to vote. However, the bidder and their associates are not allowed to vote.

If the resolution is not passed, transfers which would have resulted from the acceptance of a bid will not be registered and the bid will be taken to have been withdrawn. If the bid is approved (or taken to have been approved), the transfers must be registered if they comply with the Corporations Act and the Company’s Constitution.

The bid will be taken to have been approved if the resolution is not voted on within the deadline specified under the Corporations Act.

The proportional takeover approval provisions do not apply to full takeover bids, and only apply for three years after the date they are renewed. The provisions may be refreshed for a further three-year period, but only by a special resolution passed by members.

Potential advantages and disadvantages

The renewal of Rule 36 will allow the Directors to ascertain members’ views on a proportional takeover bid but it does not otherwise offer any advantage or disadvantage to the Directors who remain free to make their own recommendation as to whether the bid should be accepted.

The provisions in Rule 36 ensure that all members have an opportunity to study a proportional bid proposal and vote on the bid at a general meeting. This is likely to ensure a potential bidder structures its offer in a way which is attractive to a majority of members, including appropriate pricing. Similarly, knowing the view of the majority of members may help individual members assess the likely outcome of the proportional takeover when determining whether to accept or reject the offer.

However, it is also possible that the inclusion of such provisions in the Constitution may discourage proportional takeover bids and may reduce any speculative element in the market price of the Company’s shares arising from the possibility of a takeover offer being made. The inclusion of the provisions may also be considered to constitute an unwarranted additional restriction of the ability of members to freely deal with their shares.

While Rule 36 has been in effect, there have been no full or proportional takeover bids for the Company. Therefore, there has been no example against which to review the advantages or disadvantages of the provisions for the Directors and shareholders, respectively, during this period.

The Board considers that the potential advantages for members of the proportional takeover approval provisions outweigh the potential disadvantages.

As at the date on which this statement was prepared, no Director is aware of any proposal by any person to acquire, or to increase the extent of, a substantial interest in the Company.

Recommendation

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote IN FAVOUR of the renewal of the partial takeover plebiscite by renewing Rule 36 of the Constitution of AML3D Limited in the form approved by shareholders at the time of adoption of the Company’s Constitution in 2019.
