ANTERIS TECHNOLOGIES LTD ACN 088 221 078 EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
1. Introduction
This Explanatory Memorandum and the attachments to it (including the Proxy Form) are important documents. They should be read carefully. Other than the information set out in this Notice, the Company believes that there is no other information that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to pass Resolutions 1 to 6 (inclusive).
2. Action to be taken by Shareholders
Shareholders should read the Notice, including this Explanatory Memorandum, carefully before deciding how to vote on the Resolutions.
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. To appoint a proxy shareholders must sign and return the Proxy Form to the Company in accordance with its instructions. Returning the Proxy Form will not preclude a Shareholder from attending and voting at the Meeting in person.
Please note that:
-
a Shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy;
-
a proxy need not be a Shareholder; and
-
a Shareholder 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. Where the proportion or number is not specified, each proxy may exercise half of the votes.
Proxy Forms must be received by the Company no later than 10:00 AM (AEST) on Tuesday, 14 December 2021 being at least 48 hours before the Meeting.
The Proxy Form provides further details on appointing proxies and lodging Proxy Forms.
Coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19)
The Company plans to hold the Meeting virtually on Thursday, 16 December 2021 at 10:00 AM (AEST). As at the date of this Notice, the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) has resulted in the Australian and Queensland governments implementing a number of restrictions and guidelines including those in relation to travel, public gatherings and social distancing. Due to these restrictions, Shareholders may not physically attend the Meeting.
In order to allow all Shareholders to participate in the Meeting, the Company encourages Shareholders to submit their votes by proxy by the proxy voting cut-off time of 10:00 AM (AEST) on Tuesday, 14 December 2021. In addition, the Company has organised an online facility, where Shareholders will be able to login and view a live webcast of the Meeting and to submit their voting online in real time. Details on how Shareholders can join this live webcast is outlined in the online meeting guide which accompanies this Notice. The Directors will participate in the live webcast.
If you wish to ask questions of the Directors, you may pre-submit questions ahead of the Meeting to ensure there is an opportunity for them to be addressed. Please submit your question at [email protected], stating who the question is directed to and your Shareholding details. Alternatively, questions will be able to be submitted online or asked verbally during the meeting.
The health and safety of shareholders, employees and other interested parties is a key priority and accordingly additional measures may be required to be implemented prior to the Meeting. Any such changes will be advised to Shareholders electronically, on the Company’s website (https://anteristech.com/investors) and via market announcement to ASX as soon as practicable and in any event at least two business days prior to the Meeting.
3. Resolution 1 – Ratification and approval of prior issue of shares to the L1 Capital Investors on 1 November 2021 under Listing Rule 7.1A
As announced to ASX on 27 October 2021, the Company has completed a placement of 625,000 Shares to funds managed or advised by L1 Capital Pty Ltd ( L1 Capital Investors ) raising $5.0M ( Placement ). The Shares under the Placement were issued using the Company’s placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A.
Resolution 1 seeks approval for the 625,000 Shares issued to the L1 Capital Investors to Listing Rule 7.4.
Listing Rule 7.1 provides that, subject to certain exceptions, the Company may only issue up to 15% of the number of Shares on issue as at the date 12 months prior to the issue of new Shares without prior approval of Shareholders.
Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an eligible entity can seek approval from its shareholders, by way of special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase the 15% limit under Listing Rule 7.1 by an extra 10% to 25%. The Company is an eligible entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. The Company received Shareholder approval to have the additional 10% capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A by way of a special resolution at its Annual General Meeting on 15 July 2021.
Listing Rule 7.4 provides that an issue made in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A can be approved subsequently under Listing Rule 7.4, and if it is approved, the issue will not count towards the 10% placement capacity in Listing Rule 7.1A.
The Company wishes to retain flexibility to issue additional securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1A.
If Resolution 1 is approved, it will have the effect of refreshing the Company’s ability to issue further securities without the need to obtain further Shareholder approval (subject to the Listing Rules and the Corporations Act), to the extent of the number of securities the subject of that resolution. In particular, if Resolution 1 is approved, the 625,000 Shares issued to the L1 Capital Investors using the Company’s placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A will be excluded in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

However, if Resolution 1 is not approved, the 625,000 Shares issued using the Company’s placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A will be included in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5.
8. Resolution 6 – Approval of future issue of Further Options to Evolution Capital Pty Ltd
Under the Mandate Letter, the Company has agreed to issue 37,500 Shares, 30,000 Initial Options and (subject to Shareholder approval) 170,000 Further Options to Evolution.
Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval to issue the 170,000 Further Options to Evolution for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1. A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out above under Resolution 1.
The effect of Resolution 6 will be to allow the Company to issue the 170,000 Further Options to Evolution during the period of 3 months after the date of the Meeting without using the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolution 6 is approved, the Company will issue the 170,000 Further Options to Evolution in accordance with the Mandate Letter and the issue of the 170,000 Further Options will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% placement capacity limit under Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.
If Resolution 6 is not approved, the Company will not issue the 170,000 Further Options to Evolution. Under the Mandate Letter, if the Company is unable to issue the 170,000 Further Options to Evolution the Company must pay a cash fee of $1.25 per Further Option to Evolution, which would result in a total cash payment to Evolution of $212,500.
