BLUGLASS LIMITED A.B.N. 20 116 825 793

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

This Explanatory Statement forms part of a Notice of Meeting convening the Annual General Meeting (“the Meeting”) of Shareholders of BluGlass Limited (BluGlass or the Company) to be held on Monday 24th November 2014 at 11.00am (EST).

The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions in the Notice of Meeting.

Accounts and Report

In accordance with the Constitution, the business of the Annual General Meeting will include receipt and consideration of the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 together with the declaration of the directors, the Directors’ Report, the Remuneration Report and the Auditor’s report.

Whilst the Company will not provide a hard copy of the Company’s Annual Financial Report to Shareholders unless specifically requested to do so, Shareholders may view the Company’s Annual Financial Report on its website at www.bluglass.com.au

1. Resolution 1 – Adoption of Remuneration Report

1.1 General

The Corporations Act requires that, at a listed company’s annual general meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted must be put to the shareholders. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company.

The remuneration report sets out the Company’s remuneration arrangements for the Directors and senior management of the Company. The remuneration report is part of the Directors’ report contained in the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ending 30 June 2014.

A reasonable opportunity will be provided for discussion of the remuneration report at the Annual General Meeting.

1.2 Voting Consequences

If at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report in two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of an extraordinary general meeting to consider the appointment of directors of the Company ( Spill Resolution ) at the second annual general meeting. The additional general meeting of Shareholders will not be required if at the first of those annual general meetings a Spill Resolution was put to vote.

If more than 50% of votes are cast in favour of the Spill Resolution, the Company must convene the extraordinary general meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting.

All of the directors of the company who were in office when the directors' report (as included in the Company’s annual financial report for the most recent financial year) was approved, other than the managing director of the company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting.

Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election as directors of the company is approved will be the directors of the company.


6

BLUGLASS LIMITED A.B.N. 20 116 825 793

At the annual general meeting for the year ended 30 June 2013, 502,200 votes were cast against adoption of the remuneration report, which was less than 25%. Accordingly, the Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Annual General Meeting.

1.3 Proxy Restrictions

Pursuant to the Corporations Act, if you elect a member of Key Management Personnel whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report or any Closely Related Party of that member (other than the Chair) as your proxy to vote on this Resolution 1, you must direct the proxy how they are to vote on this Resolution . Where you do not direct the member of Key Management Personnel whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report or Closely Related Party of that member on how to vote on this Resolution 1, the proxy is prevented by the Corporations Act from exercising your vote and your vote will not be counted in relation to this Resolution 1 and will not be counted in calculating the required majority if a poll is called on this Resolution.

If you appoint the Chair as your proxy (where he/she is a member of the Key Management Personnel whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report, or a Closely Related Party of such a member), you do not need to direct your proxy how to vote on this Resolution. However, if you do not direct the Chair how to vote, you must mark the acknowledgement on the Proxy Form to expressly authorise the Chair to exercise his/her discretion in exercising your proxy even though this Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of Key Management Personnel.

If you appoint any person not a member of the Key Management Personnel or a Closely Related Party of such a member as your proxy you do not need to direct your proxy how to vote on this Resolution, and you do not need to mark any further acknowledgement on the Proxy Form.

2. Resolution 2 - Re-Election of Mr George Venardos

ASX Listing Rule 14.4 provides that a director of an entity must not hold office (without reelection) past the third AGM following the director’s appointment or 3 years, whichever is the longer.

Clause 13.2 of the Constitution requires that if the Company has three or more Directors, one third (or the number nearest one-third, rounding up if in doubt) of those Directors must retire at each annual general meeting, provided always that no Director (except a Managing Director) shall hold office for a period in excess of 3 years, or until the third annual general meeting following his or her appointment, whichever is the longer, without submitting himself or herself for re-election.

The Directors to retire at an annual general meeting are those who have been longest in office since their last election, but, as between persons who became Directors on the same day, those to retire shall (unless they otherwise agree among themselves) be determined by drawing lots.

A Director who retires by rotation under clause 13.2 of the Constitution is eligible for reelection.

The Company currently has 5 Directors four of which are taken into account in determining the number of Directors to retire. Accordingly one must retire.

Mr George Venardos, one of the Directors that has been longest in office since his last election, retires by rotation and seeks re-election.


7

BLUGLASS LIMITED A.B.N. 20 116 825 793

3. Resolution 3 – Re-Election of Director – Mr Giles Bourne

Clause 13.4 of the Constitution allows the Directors to appoint at any time a person to be a Director either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing Directors, but only where the total number of Directors does not at any time exceed the maximum number specified by the Constitution.

Under clause 13.4 of the Constitution, any Director so appointed holds office only until the next following general meeting and must then retire and seek re-election by Shareholders. Any such Director shall not be taken into account in determining the Directors who are to retire by rotation (if any) at that meeting.

Mr Giles Bourne, having been appointed by the Board as a Director on 26 August 2014, will retire in accordance with clause 13.4 of the Constitution and, being eligible, seeks election from Shareholders.

4. Resolution 4 - Approval of 10% Placement Facility

4.1 General Comments

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A enables an Eligible Entity to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued capital through placements over a 12 month period after the annual general meeting ( 10% Placement Facility ). The 10% Placement Facility is in addition to the Company's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

An Eligible Entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation (excluding restricted securities and securities quoted on a deferred settlement basis) of $300 million or less. The Company is an Eligible Entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 and has a market capitalisation of approximately $39million at the date of this Notice.

The Company is now seeking Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to have the ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility.

The exact number of Equity Securities the Company may issue under the 10% Placement Facility will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to Section 3.2(c) below).

The effect of Resolution 4 will be to allow the Company to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of the Company’s fully paid ordinary securities on issue under the 10% Placement Capacity during the period up to 12 months after the Meeting, without subsequent Shareholder approval and without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity granted under Listing Rule 7.1.

4.2 Explanation of Listing Rule 7.1A

(a) Shareholder approval

The ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility is subject to shareholder approval by way of a special resolution at an annual general meeting. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 4 for it to be passed.

(b) Equity Securities

Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility must be in the same class as an existing quoted class of Equity Securities of the Company. The Company currently has 1 class of quoted Equity Securities on issue, being the Shares (ASX Code:BLG).


8

BLUGLASS LIMITED A.B.N. 20 116 825 793

(c) Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that an Eligible Entity which has obtained shareholder approval at an annual general meeting may issue or agree to issue, during the 12 month period after the date of the annual general meeting, a number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:

(A x D) – E

  • A is the number of Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

  • (A) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;

  • (B) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the previous 12 months;

  • (C) plus the number of Shares issued in the previous 12 months with approval of holders of Shares under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include an issue of Shares under the entity's 15% placement capacity without shareholder approval; and

  • (D) less the number of Shares cancelled in the previous 12 months.

  • 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 12 months before the date of the issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of holders of Ordinary Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or ASX Listing Rule 7.4.

(d) Minimum Issue Price

The issue price of Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A must be no less than 75% of the volume weighted average market price for Equity Securities in the same class calculated over the 15 Trading Days on which trades in the class were recorded immediately before:

  • (i) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or

  • (ii) 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.

(e) 10% Placement Period

Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under Listing Rule 7.1A is valid from the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained and expires on the earlier to occur of:

  • (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained; and

  • (ii) the date of the 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) (after which date, an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A ceases to be valid),


9

BLUGLASS LIMITED A.B.N. 20 116 825 793

or such longer period if allowed by ASX ( 10% Placement Period ).

4.3

Effect of Listing Rule 7.1A

The effect of Resolution 4 will be to allow the Company to issue the Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the 10% Placement Period without using the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 4 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative).

4.4 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, information is provided in relation to the approval of the 10% Placement Facility as follows:

  • (a) Any issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue. If Resolution 4 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility, the existing Shareholders' voting power in the Company will be diluted as shown in the below table. There is a risk that:

  • (i) the market price for the Company's Equity Securities in that class may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than on the date of the Annual General Meeting at which the approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A is obtained; and

  • (ii) the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Equity Securities on the issue date,

  • which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the Equity Securities.

The below table shows the potential dilution of existing holders of Shares on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of Shares for variable "A" calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 as at the date of this Notice of Meeting.

The table also shows:

  • (i) two examples where variable “A” has increased, by 50% and 100% and the voting dilution impact of such an increase. The number of Shares, calculated in accordance with the formula set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A(2), to be included in Variable A, may increase as a result of issues of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or future specific placements under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders’ meeting; and

  • (ii) two examples of where the issue price of Shares has decreased by 50% and increased by 50% as against the Share price on the date of the Notice of Meeting, and the economic dilution of such a change.

The table has been prepared on the following assumptions.

  • (i) The Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility.

  • (ii) That a total of 287,748,721 Shares are on issue as at the date of this Notice of Meeting.

  • (iii) The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Facility, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.

  • (iv) The table shows only the effect of issues of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • (v) The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares. If the issue of Equity Securities includes Options, it is assumed that those Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities.

  • (vi) The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Annual General Meeting that were not issued under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

  • (vii) 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%.

  • (viii) The issue price is $0.135, being the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 6 October 2014.

Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:

  • (i) the market price for the Company’s Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and

  • (ii) the Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Shares on the date of issue.

  • (b) The Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for the following purposes:

  • (i) non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new assets and investments which will compliment the Company’s existing projects and add value to the Company’s Shareholders where the Directors consider it appropriate to do so. In such


11

BLUGLASS LIMITED A.B.N. 20 116 825 793

circumstances, the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by Listing Rule 7.1A.3; or

  • (ii) cash consideration. In such circumstances, the Company intends to use the funds raised towards the development and commercialisation of its RPCVD technology and/or for acquisition of new assets or investments (including expenses associated with such acquisition) and general working capital.

The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rule 7.1A.4 and Listing Rule 3.10.5A upon issue of any Equity Securities.

  • (c) The Company’s allocation policy for the issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility will be dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed. The identity of the allottees of Equity Securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factors including but not limited to the following:

  • (i) the purpose of the issue;

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

  • (iii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;

  • (iv) the circumstances of the Company, including but not limited to, the financial situation and solvency of the Company;

  • (v) prevailing market conditions at the time of issue; and

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

The allottees under the 10% Placement Facility have not been determined as at the date of this Notice of Meeting but may include existing Shareholders and/or new investors who are not related parties or associates of a related party of the Company.

Further, if the Company is successful in acquiring new resources assets or investments, it is likely that the allottees under the 10% Placement Facility will be the vendors of the new resources assets or investments.

  • (d) Information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.3A.6.

The Company previously obtained approval from its Shareholders pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 25 November 2013 ( Previous Approval ).

The Company has not issued any Equity Securities pursuant to the Previous Approval.

During the 12 month period preceding the date of the Meeting, being on and from 24 November 2013, the Company otherwise issued a total of 2,410,890 Shares and 4,059,000 Options which represents approximately 2.20% of the total diluted number of Equity Securities on issue in the Company on 24 November 2013, which was 294,071,387.

The table below sets out the information relating to issues of Equity Securities issued by Bluglass Limited in the 12 months prior to 24 November 2014.

  1. Market price means the closing price on ASX on the day prior to issue of the Equity Securities (excluding special crossings, overnight sales and exchange traded option exercises). For the purposes of this table the discount is calculated on the market price on the last trading day on which a sale was recorded prior to the date of issue of the relevant Equity Securities.

        - the Company successfully completing a commercial transaction which directly leads to measureable revenue, the materiality of which is acceptable to the board.

  - (ii) **Tranche 2 Vesting Criteria:** 33% of an option holder’s options will vest and be exercisable after 24 months continuous service from the date of option issue.

  - (iii) **Final Vesting Criteria:** Once all the above performance milestones are met, the Incentive Options will only vest with board approval.
  1. Being 2.2% of the total number of Equity Securities on issue as at 24 November 2013.

  2. In respect of quoted Equity Securities the value is based on the closing price of the Shares ($0.135) as the context requires on the ASX on the trading day prior to the date of this Notice. In respect of unquoted Equity Securities, the value of Options is measured using the Black & Scholes option pricing model. Measurement inputs include the Share price on the measurement date, the exercise price, the term of the Option, the impact of dilution, the expected volatility of the underlying Share (based on weighted average historic volatility adjusted for changes expected due to publicly available information), the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the Option. No account is taken of any performance conditions included in the terms of the Option other than market based performance conditions (i.e. conditions linked to the price of Shares).

  3. (e) When the Company issues Equity Securities pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity, it will give to ASX:

     - (i) a list of the recipients of the Equity Securities and the number of Equity Securities issued to each (not for release to the market), in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.4; and
    
     - (ii) the information required by Listing Rule 3.10.5A for release to the market.
    
  4. (f) A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice of Meeting. At the date of this Notice of Meeting, the Company has not approached any existing Shareholder or security holder or an identifiable class of existing security holder to participate in an issue of the Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. No existing Shareholder's votes will therefore be excluded under the voting exclusion in the Notice of Meeting for Resolution 4.
