_____________ ENTITLEMENT TO ATTEND AND VOTE
_____________
The Directors have determined that pursuant to regulation 7.11.37 of the Corporations Regulations 2001 (Cth), persons who are registered holders of shares of the Company as at 7 pm (Sydney time) on Tuesday 16 February 2021 will be entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting as a shareholder ( Entitlement Time ).
This means that if you are not the registered holder of a Share in the Company at the Entitlement Time, you will not be entitled to attend or vote at the Meeting.

Explanatory Notes
1. Resolution 1: Approval for Consideration Shares Issue
1.1. Background
As announced on 7 December 2020, the Company and its subsidiary, Big River Group Pty Ltd ACN 000 009 754, ( Buyer ) entered into a Business Purchase Deed with Timberwood Panels Pty Ltd ACN 161 640 302 ( Seller ) and others ( Agreement ). Under the Agreement, the Buyer has agreed to acquire the business and assets of the Timberwood group ( Acquisition ) for an enterprise value of $24.0 million.
The Timberwood group is a speciality manufacturer and distributor of a range of panel products, with a strong diverse customer network and both local and overseas suppliers. It has operations across three sites in Victoria and the ACT, as well as over 1,500 customers across all states and territories.
The consideration payable for the Acquisition comprises an upfront cash payment of $18.5 million and a $1.5 million working capital contribution, the issue of 2,962,963 Shares at a deemed price of $1.35 per Share ( Consideration Shares ) ( Consideration Shares Issue ), up to $6 million in earn out cash payments and customary post-completion working capital adjustments.
The Consideration Shares Issue is subject to shareholder approval as provided for in Resolution 1.
As announced on 7 December 2020 and 9 December 2020, the cash consideration payable for the Acquisition will be funded by:
-
a placement to sophisticated and professional investors which completed on 15 December 2020, under which the Company issued 10,600,000 Shares at $1.35 per Share and raised $14.3 million ( Placement );
-
a placement to Naos Emerging Opportunities Company Limited ABN 58 161 106 510 and Naos Small Cap Opportunities Company Limited ACN 47 107 617 381 ( NAOS ), under which the Company is proposing to issue 4,518,519 Shares at $1.35 per Share to raise $6.1 million ( NAOS Issue ), subject to shareholder approval; and
-
by drawing down on existing debt facilities.
The NAOS Issue is subject to shareholder approval as provided for in Resolution 4.
1.2. Listing Rule Requirements – ASX Listing Rule 7.1
The Consideration Shares are 'equity securities' under the ASX Listing Rules. ASX Listing Rule 7.1 restricts the number of equity securities that a listed company can issue or agree to issue in any 12 month period without shareholder approval to 15% of the number of ordinary securities on issue at the start of the period, subject to certain adjustments and permitted exceptions.
ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (exception 17) states that an agreement to issue equity securities will not use up a listed company's 15% placement capacity if it is conditional on shareholders approving the issue before the issue is made. As the Agreement (which constitutes an agreement for the issue of equity securities) contained such a condition, the agreement to issue the Consideration Shares did not use up the Company's placement capacity. Exception 17 applies on the basis that approval to issue the Consideration Shares is obtained under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, Resolution 1 seeks such Shareholder approval to the Consideration Shares Issue.
If Resolution 1 is passed, the Consideration Shares Issue will be issued with Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and will therefore not use up the Company's 15% placement capacity.
If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Consideration Shares Issue will use up Company's 15% placement capacity. As the Company does not have sufficient remaining 15% placement capacity to accommodate the Consideration Shares Issue, the Company will be unable to complete the Consideration Shares Issue. In that circumstance, the Company will be unable to complete the Acquisition.

1.5. Recommendation
The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1. The Chairman intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1. Anacacia Capital, the Company's largest shareholder, has committed to vote in favour of Resolution 1.
2. Resolution 2 and Resolution 3: Ratification of Placement Shares
2.1. Background
As noted in section 1.1 of these Explanatory Notes, the Acquisition will be partly funded by the Placement.
The Placement completed on 15 December 2020, at which time the Company issued 10,600,000 Shares at a price of $1.35 per Share ( Placement Shares ) to sophisticated and professional investors. The Company raised $14.3 million under the Placement.
2.2. Listing Rule Requirements – ASX Listing Rule 7.4
The Placement Shares are 'equity securities' under the ASX Listing Rules. ASX Listing Rule 7.1 restricts the number of equity securities that a listed company can issue or agree to issue in any 12 month period without shareholder approval to 15% of the number of ordinary securities on issue at the start of the period, subject to certain adjustments and permitted exceptions.
9,371,583 of the Placement Shares were issued using up the Company's 15% capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 ( 7.1 Placement ). As a result of the 7.1 Placement, the Company has no remaining capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
In addition, ASX Listing Rule 7.1A enables an eligible listed company to issue additional equity securities up to 10% of its issued share capital over a 12 month period after the annual general meeting at which shareholders approved the additional placement capacity. The 10% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A is in addition to the company's 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. The Company obtained the requisite shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A at its 2020 annual general meeting.
1,228,417 of the Placement Shares were issued using up the Company's additional 10% capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A ( 7.1A Placement ). As a result of the 7.1A Placement, the Company has remaining capacity to issue or agree to issue up to 5,019,305 Shares under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.
ASX Listing Rule 7.4 provides that an entity may ratify an issue of securities made without approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and/or 7.1A subsequently to the issue of those securities provided that the issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.1A. If an issue of securities is ratified under ASX Listing Rule 7.4, the issue will be treated as having been made with approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1. The Company confirms that the issue of the Placement Shares did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.1A.
Resolution 2 seeks approval to ratify the issue of 9,371,583 Placement Shares under the 7.1 Placement. Resolution 3 seeks approval to ratify the issue of 1,228,417 Placement Shares under the 7.1A Placement.
If Resolution 2 is passed, the Placement Shares issued under the 7.1 Placement will be deemed to have been issued with Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and will hence no longer reduce the Company's 15% placement capacity.
10
Legal/74299283_2
If Resolution 2 is not passed, the Placement Shares issued under the 7.1 Placement will be included in calculating the Company's remaining 15% placement capacity, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of the Placement. As noted above, the 7.1 Placement used up the Company's 15% placement capacity so the Company will be unable to issue any further Shares under the 15% placement capacity until it refreshes.
If Resolution 3 is passed, the Placement Shares issued under the 7.1A Placement will be deemed to have been issued with Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and will hence no longer reduce the Company's additional 10% placement capacity.
If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Placement Shares issued under the 7.1A Placement will be included in calculating the Company's additional 10% placement capacity, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of the Placement.
2.3. Listing Rule Requirements – ASX Listing Rule 7.5
The following information is required by ASX Listing Rule 7.5 for the purposes of Shareholder ratification under ASX Listing Rule 7.4:
| Number and class of securities issued |
10,600,000 fully paid ordinary shares in the Company, ranking equally in all respects with existing fully paid ordinary shares in the Company on issue (i.e. thePlacement Shares), of which: • 9,371,583 Placement Shares were issued under the 7.1 Placement and are the subject of Resolution 2; and • 1,228,417 Placement Shares were issued under the 7.1A Placement and are the subject of Resolution 3. |
|---|---|
| Date on which the securities were issued |
15 December 2020. |
| The names of the persons to whom the Company issued the securities or the basis on which those persons were determined |
The Placement Shares were issued to sophisticated and professional investors as determined by the Company in consultation with the lead manager to the Placement, Moelis Australia Advisory Pty Limited ACN 142 008 446. No person to whom the Placement Shares were issued was a related party of the Company. |
| Purpose of the issue, including the intended use of funds |
The funds raised from the Placement will be used to part fund the Acquisition, to cover any transaction costs incurred by the Company in connection with the Acquisition and to meet the Company's general working capital requirements. |
| Price that the Company will received for the securities |
The Company received $1.35 per Placement Share, totalling $14,310,000.00. |
| Voting exclusion | As specified under the "Voting exclusion" heading under Resolution 2 in this Notice. |
2.4. Recommendation
The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2. The Chairman intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 2.

Legal/74299283_2
3. Resolution 4: Approval for NAOS Issue
3.1. Background
As noted in section 1.1 of these Explanatory Notes, the Acquisition will be partly funded by the NAOS Issue.
The NAOS Issue is a placement of a total of 4,518,519 Shares at a price of $1.35 per Share ( NAOS Shares ) to Naos Emerging Opportunities Company Limited ACN 58 161 106 510 ( Naos Emerging ) and Naos Small Cap Opportunities Company Limited ACN 47 107 617 381 ( Naos Small Cap ) ( NAOS ). The Company is proposing to raise $6.1 million under the NAOS Issue, subject to receipt of shareholder approval to such issue.
3.2. Listing Rule Requirements – ASX Listing Rule 10.11.2
The NAOS Shares are 'equity securities' under the ASX Listing Rules. ASX Listing Rule 10.11.2 provides that a listed company must not issue, or agree to issue, equity securities to a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (i.e. at least 30%) holder in the company, without the approval of shareholders.
At the time that NAOS committed to acquire the NAOS Shares, it held a 30.04% shareholding in the Company. NAOS's shareholder has since been diluted to 25.68% as a result of the Placement. As NAOS's shareholding in the 6 months prior to the proposed issue date for the NAOS Shares was at least 30%, the Company must seek Shareholder approval for the NAOS Issue under ASX Listing Rule 10.11.2.
ASX Listing Rule 10.12 (exception 11) states that an agreement to issue securities will not breach ASX Listing Rule 10.11 if it is conditional on shareholders approving the issue before the issue is made. NAOS entered into a commitment letter in favour of the Company committing to subscribe for the NAOS Shares (which constitutes an agreement for the issue of equity securities), which contained such a condition. Accordingly, Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval of the NAOS Issue.
If Resolution 4 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the NAOS Issue and will be able to use the funds raised from the NAOS Issue to partly fund the Acquisition and associated costs.
If Resolution 4 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the NAOS Issue and will need to fund the remainder of the Acquisition costs and associated costs using debt from the Company's existing interest-bearing debt facilities.
3.3. Listing Rule Requirements – ASX Listing Rule 10.13
The following information is required by ASX Listing Rule 10.13 for the purposes of Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.11.2:
| Persons to whom the Company will issue the securities |
Naos Emerging Opportunities Company Limited ACN 161 106 510 (NAOS Emerging) and Naos Small Cap Opportunities Company Limited ACN 107 617 381 (NAOS Small Cap,) (that is NAOS). |
|---|---|
| Category in rules 10.11.1-10.11.5 to which the person(s) fall under |
NAOS falls within the ambit of ASX Listing Rule 10.11.2 as it held a 30.04% shareholding in the Company in the 6 months before the proposed NAOS Issue date. |
| Number and class of securities issued |
4,518,519 fully paid ordinary shares in the Company, ranking equally in all respects with existing fully paid ordinary shares in the Company on issue (i.e. theNAOS Shares) and divided amongst NAOS as follows: • Naos Emerging – 518,519 NAOS Shares; and • Naos Small Cap – 4,000,000 NAOS Shares. |
12
Legal/74299283_2
| Proposed issue date of the securities |
The NAOS Shares will be issued no later than 16 March 2021, and in any event no later than 1 month after the date of this Meeting. |
|---|---|
| Purpose of the issue, including the intended use of funds |
The funds raised from the NAOS Issue will be used to partly fund the Acquisition, to cover any transaction costs incurred by the Company in connection with the Acquisition and to meet the Company's general working capital requirements. |
| Price that the Company will receive for the securities |
The Company will receive $1.35 per NAOS Share, totalling $6,100,000.65. |
| Material terms of the commitment letter pursuant to which the securities will be issued |
There are no other material terms. |
| Voting exclusion | As specified under the "Voting exclusion" heading under Resolution 4 in this Notice. |
3.4. No approval required under ASX Listing Rule 7.1
The NAOS Shares are 'equity securities' under the ASX Listing Rules. ASX Listing Rule 7.1 restricts the number of equity securities that a listed company can issue in any 12 month period without shareholder approval to 15% of the number of ordinary securities on issue at the start of the period, subject to certain adjustments and permitted exceptions. Three of the exceptions are in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (exception 14), which excludes from the restrictions in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 an issue of securities made with the approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.11, and ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (exception 16), which excludes from the restrictions in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 an issue of securities under an agreement to issue which complies with the ASX Listing Rules. As such, neither the agreement to issue the NAOS Shares, nor the issue of the NAOS Shares, will use up the Company's 15% placement capacity.
3.5. No contravention of Chapter 6 of the Act
Under the NAOS Issue, when the NAOS Shares are issued to NAOS, NAOS will acquire a relevant interest in voting shares in the Company for the purposes of Chapter 6 of the Act. Section 606 of the Act prohibits the acquisition of a relevant interest in the issued voting shares of a listed company if, immediately after the acquisition, any person's voting power would increase within the 20%-90% bracket, unless an exception applies. One of the exceptions is in item 9 of section 611 of the Act, which provides that, if a person has maintained voting power of at least 19% for six months, acquisitions increasing their voting power to a point no more than 3% higher than it was six months prior to the acquisition will be exempt from the prohibitions contained in section 606.
NAOS held a 29.91% shareholding in the Company on 16[th] September 2020, being the date that is 6 months prior to the proposed NAOS Issue date. Given that NAOS is expected to hold a 30.01% shareholding upon completion of the NAOS Issue, the issue of the NAOS Shares will fall within this exception and not require shareholder approval under Chapter 6 of the Act.
3.6. Recommendation
The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4. The Chairman intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 4. Anacacia Capital, the Company's largest shareholder, has committed to vote in favour of Resolution 4.
