Explanatory Memorandum

contained in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 details of which are set out above). Any issue of Placement Securities will have a dilutive effect on existing shareholders.

There is a specific risk that:

  • (1) the Market Price for the Company’s Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of any Placement Securities than it is on the date of the meeting; and

  • (2) the Placement 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 or the value of the Placement Securities.

As required by Listing Rule 7.3A.2, Table 1 below shows the potential economic and voting dilution effect, in circumstances where the issued share capital has doubled and the Market Price of the shares has halved. Table 1 also shows additional scenarios in which the issued share capital has increased (by both 50% and 100%) and the Market Price of the shares has:

Assumptions and explanations

  • (1) The Market Price is $0.15, based on the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 16 December 2021.

  • (2) The above table only shows the dilutionary effect based on the issue of the Placement Securities (assuming only Shares are issued), and not any Shares issued under the 15% under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • (3) The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue.

  • (4)

  • The Company issues the maximum number of Placement Securities.

  • (5) The issued share capital has been calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A(2) as at 16 December 2021.

  • (6) The issue price of the Placement Securities used in the table is the same as the Market Price and does not take into account the discount to the Market Price (if any).

Explanatory Memorandum

(e) Company’s allocation policy - Listing Rule 7.3A.5

The Company’s allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue of the Placement Securities. The identity of the allottees of Placement Securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to a number of factors including but not limited to the following:

  • (1) the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company including, but not limited to, rights issue or other issue in which existing shareholders can participate;

  • (2) the effect of the issue of the Placement Securities on the control of the Company;

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

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

The allottees of the Placement Securities have not been determined as at the date of this Notice but may include existing substantial Shareholders and new Shareholders who are not related parties or associates of a related party of the Company.

Further, if the Company is successful in acquiring new assets or investments for which Placement Securities are issued as consideration, it is likely that the allottees of some of the Placement Securities will be the vendors of the new assets or investments.

(f) Previous issues under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 - Listing Rule 7.3A.6

The Company has not issued or agreed to issue any equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the previous 12 months.

  • 7.4

Voting exclusion statement

A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice of Meeting. At the date of the Notice of Meeting, the proposed allottees of any Placement Securities are not as yet known or identified. In these circumstances (and in accordance with the note set out in Listing Rule 14.11.1 relating to Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A), for a person’s vote to be excluded, it must be known that that person will participate in the proposed issue. Where it is not known who will participate in the proposed issue (as is the case in respect of the Placement Securities), Shareholders must consider the proposal on the basis that they may or may not get a benefit and that it is possible that their holding will be diluted and there is no reason to exclude their votes.

Proxy form

Proxy, representative and voting entitlement instructions

All resolutions will be by poll

In accordance with clause 27.1of the Company’s constitution, the Chair intends to call a poll on each of the resolutions proposed at the Meeting. Each resolution considered at the Meeting will therefore be conducted by a poll, rather than on a show of hands. The Chair considers voting by poll to be in the interests of the Shareholders as a whole and is a way to ensure the views of as many Shareholders as possible are represented at the Meeting.

Virtual (Online) Voting and Attendance Entitlement

Due to the coronavirus pandemic and related issues, we will hold the AGM virtually through an online portal hosted by the Company’s share registrar. In accordance with the Treasury Laws Amendment (2021 Measures No. 1) Act 2021 , we are relying on technology to facility shareholder engagement and participation in the AGM.

Accordingly, in order to ensure the safety of Shareholders and the Company's personnel and to maximise the opportunity for Shareholder participation, the Board has determined that the Meeting will be held virtually (online) via an online platform accessible at https://meetings.linkgroup.com/AQCAGM21 . There will be no physical attendance at the Meeting.

The Board has determined that those persons who are registered as holding Shares as at 9:00am (AEST) on 29 January 2022, will be entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting. Accordingly, transactions registered after that time will be disregarded in determining entitlements to attend and vote at the Meeting.

If more than one joint holder of a Share is present at the Meeting (whether personally, by proxy, by attorney or by representative) and tenders a vote, only the vote of the joint holder whose name appears first on the Company’s Share register will be counted.

Proxies and representatives

Shareholders are entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf. Where a Shareholder is entitled to cast two or more votes at the Meeting, they may appoint two proxies. Where more than one proxy is appointed, each proxy may be appointed to represent a specific proportion or number of votes the Shareholder may exercise. If the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy may exercise, each proxy may exercise half of the votes. The proxy may, but need not, be a Shareholder of the Company.

Shareholders who are a body corporate are able to appoint representatives to attend and vote at the Meeting under section 250D of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) .

The proxy form must be signed by the Shareholder or his/her attorney duly authorised in writing or, if the shareholder is a corporation, in a manner permitted by the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) .

The proxy form (and the power of attorney or other authority, if any, under which the proxy form is signed) or a copy or facsimile which appears on its face to be an authentic copy of the proxy form (and the power of attorney or other authority) must be deposited at, posted to, or sent by facsimile transmission to the address listed below, or the Share Registry, C/- Link Market Services Limited Locked Bag A14 Sydney South NSW 1235 Australia 48 hours before the time for holding the Meeting, or the adjourned Meeting as the case may be, at which the individual named in the proxy form proposes to vote.
