This Explanatory Memorandum provides further information for members in respect of the resolutions to be considered at the Annual General Meeting of Australian Rural Capital Limited (ARC or Company) to be held at held at 2:00pm Brisbane time on 18 October 2018 at the offices of Broadley Rees Hogan, located at Level 24, 111 Eagle Street, BRISBANE QLD 4000 ( AGM or the Meeting ) .

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

1. Chairman’s Address

Report on results and activities during the financial year.

2. Financial Statements and reports

Under Section 317 of the Corporations Act, ARC is required to lay its annual financial report, directors’ report and remuneration report before its Shareholders at its Annual General Meeting. The annual financial report is submitted for Shareholders’ consideration and discussion at the Annual General Meeting as required. Meeting attendees are invited to direct questions to the Chairman in respect of any aspect of the report they wish to discuss but there will be no formal resolution put to the meeting.

Representatives of ARCs auditor, Bentleys Brisbane (Audit) Pty Ltd, will be present for discussion purposes on matters of relevance to the audit.

Resolution 1 – Adoption of Remuneration Report

Board recommendation and undirected proxies . The Board recommends that shareholders vote in FAVOUR of resolution 1. The Chairman of the meeting intends to vote undirected proxies in FAVOUR of resolution 1.

Resolution 1 provides Shareholders the opportunity to vote on ARC’s Remuneration Report. The Remuneration Report is contained in the Directors’ Report. Under Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act, ARC must put the adoption of its remuneration report to a vote at its Annual General Meeting.

This vote is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or ARC.

The Board will consider the outcome of the vote and comments made by Shareholders on the remuneration report at this meeting when reviewing ARC’s remuneration policies. If 25% or more of the votes that are cast are voted against the adoption of the remuneration report at two consecutive annual general meetings shareholders will be required to vote at the second of those annual general meetings on a resolution (a “spill resolution”) that

Australian Rural Capital Limited: 2018 Notice of Annual General Meeting - Page 5

another meeting be held within 90 days at which all of ARC’s directors other than the managing director must be offered up for election.

Key management personnel (including Directors) and their closely related parties must not cast a vote on the remuneration report, unless as holders of directed proxies for Shareholders eligible to vote on Resolution 1.

ARC encourages all shareholders to cast their votes on this resolution. The Chairman will vote all undirected proxies in favour of this resolution. If you wish to vote “against” or “abstain” you should mark the relevant box in the attached proxy form.

The Board recommends you vote in favour of this advisory Resolution 1.

Resolution 2 – Re-election of Mr Wayne Massey as a Director

Board recommendation and undirected proxies . The Board recommends that shareholders vote in FAVOUR of resolution 2. The Chairman of the meeting intends to vote undirected proxies in FAVOUR of resolution 2.

Under Clause 13.6 of ARC’s constitution, Wayne Massey, retires by rotation. Mr Massey being eligible, offers himself for re-election by shareholders as a Director of the Company.

Resolution 2 therefore provides for the re-election of Wayne Massey as a Director of ARC in accordance with ARC’s constitution.

Wayne Massey has occupied a number of senior finance executive positions in the sugar industry since 1998, including a period as Chief Financial Officer of MSF Sugar Ltd from 2008 to 2012 (ASX listed until 2012). During this period the sugar industry underwent a period of deregulation, which was followed by a period of industry consolidation. Wayne has experience in mergers and acquisitions, debt management and development of futures and currency capability. He has also held Director positions of unlisted Australian parent and subsidiary companies in the sugar industry in recent years and has been a Director of SMART, an Industry Superannuation Fund.

Mr Massey is not a director of any other listed entities currently or in the last three years.

The Directors (excluding Wayne Massey) unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

Resolution 3 – Approval of 10% Placement Facility

Board recommendation and undirected proxies . The Board recommends that shareholders vote in FAVOUR of resolution 3. The Chairman of the meeting intends to vote undirected proxies in FAVOUR of resolution 3.

Placement capacity

Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an eligible entity may seek shareholder approval by special resolution at its annual general meeting to issue equity securities equivalent to an additional 10% of the number of ordinary securities on issue over a period of 12 months after the

Australian Rural Capital Limited: 2018 Notice of Annual General Meeting - Page 6

annual general meeting ( 10% Placement ). This is in addition to the existing 15% placement capacity permitted by Listing Rule 7.1.

If Shareholders approve Resolution 3, the number of equity securities the Company may issue under the 10% Placement will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out below).

Eligibility Criteria

An eligible entity is one that, as at the date of the relevant Annual General Meeting:

  • a) is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index; and

  • b) has a maximum market capitalisation (excluding restricted securities and securities quoted on a deferred settlement basis) of $300,000,000.

The Company is an eligible entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a current market capitalisation of less than $300,000,000.

Any equity securities issued must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted equity securities. The Company currently has two classes of quoted equity securities on issue, being Shares (ASX Code ARC) and Options (ASX Code ARCO).

Calculation for 10% Placement

The number of equity securities that the Company may issue under the approval sought by Resolution 3 will be calculated in accordance with the following formula as set out in Listing Rule 7.1A.2:

(A x D) – E

Where:

  • A = the number of fully paid Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement to issue:

plus the number of Shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;

plus the number of partly paid Shares that became fully paid in the 12 months;

plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the 12 months under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4; and

less the number of fully paid Shares cancelled in the 12 months.

  • D = 10%.

  • E = 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 the Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.

Australian Rural Capital Limited: 2018 Notice of Annual General Meeting - Page 7

Minimum Issue Price

In accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A.3, equity securities issued by the Company under a 10% Placement can only be issued at a price that is not less than 75% of the VWAP (volume weighted average price) of the equity securities 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 equity securities are to be issued is agreed; or

  • b) if the equity securities are not issued within 5 trading days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the equity securities are issued.

Dilution to existing shareholdings

If Resolution 3 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues Shares under the 10% Placement, Shareholders should be aware there is a risk of economic and voting dilution that may result from an issue of equity securities under the 10% Placement , including the risk that:

  • a) the market price for equity securities in that class may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting where approval is being sought; and

  • b) 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.

Any issue of equity securities under the 10% Placement will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any equity securities under the issue, unless the only equity securities issued under the 10% Placement are options and these options are not exercised.

If Resolution 3 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of equity securities available under the 10% Placement, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below, assuming that any options issued under the 10% Placement are exercised.

The table below shows the potential 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 the Shares and the current number of Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice of Meeting.

The table also shows 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[1] .

  • [1] The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

  • (i) The Company issues the maximum number of shares available under Listing Rule 7.1A;

  • (ii) The table shows only the effect of shares issues under Listing Rule 7.1A and does not factor in the Company’s ability to issue up to 15% of its issued capital under Listing Rule 7.1;

  • (iii) The issue price is $0.67, being the closing price of the shares on the ASX on 5 September 2018.

The table shows:

  • two examples where variable “A” has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable “A” is based on the number of shares the Company has on issue, adjusted for Listing Rule 7.1A.2 requirements. The number of shares on issue may increase as a result of issues of shares that do not require approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue) or future specific placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders’ meeting; and

  • two examples of where the issue price of shares has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.

Placement Period

If Shareholder approval is granted for Resolution 3, then that approval will expire on the earlier of:

  • a) 10 October 2019, being 12 months from the date of the Meeting; or

  • b) the date Shareholder approval is granted to a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (proposed change to nature and scale of activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (change involving main undertaking).

The approval under Listing Rule 7.1A will cease to be valid in the event that Shareholders subsequently approve a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 or 11.2.

Purpose of Issue under 10% Placement

The purpose for which the 10% Placement may be issued include to raise funds for the Company or for non-cash consideration (details set out below). Funds raised from the 10% placement are intended to be used as follows:

Australian Rural Capital Limited: 2018 Notice of Annual General Meeting - Page 9

  • a) to enable the company to solely or part fund any investment acquisitions in line with the Company’s investment policy; or

  • b) working capital;

The Company may issue the 10% Placement for non-cash consideration, such as the acquisition of new investments or assets. The Company issues equity securities for non-cash consideration, the Company will release to the market a valuation of the non-cash consideration that demonstrates that the issue price of the equity securities complies with Listing Rule 7.1A.3.

Allocation Policy

The Company’s allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue under the 10% Placement. The identity of the allottees under the 10% Placement will be determined on a case by case basis having regard to the following factors:

  • a) the purpose of the issue;

  • b) 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;

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

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

  • e) prevailing market conditions; and

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

Previous Approval under Listing Rule 7.1A

The Company obtained shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at the 2017 AGM held on 12 October 2017.

Information under Listing Rule 7.3A. 6(a): The table below shows the total number of equity securities issued in the past 12 months preceding the date of this Annual General Meeting and the percentages those issues represent of the total number of equity securities on issue at the commencement of the 12 month period.
