EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.

1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND REPORTS

In accordance with the Corporations Act, the business of the Meeting will include receipt and consideration of the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2022 together with the declaration of the Directors, the Directors’ report, the Remuneration Report and the auditor’s report.

The Company will not provide a hard copy of the Company’s annual financial report to Shareholders unless specifically requested to do so. The Company’s annual financial report is available on its website at www.bphenergy.com.au .

2. RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT

2.1 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 company or the directors of 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 a financial year.

The chair of the meeting must allow a reasonable opportunity for its shareholders to ask questions about or make comments on the remuneration report at the annual general meeting.

2.2

Voting consequences

A company is required to put to its shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of another meeting of shareholders to consider the appointment of directors of the company ( Spill Resolution ) if, at consecutive annual general meetings, at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report and at the first of those annual general meetings a Spill Resolution was not put to vote. If required, the Spill Resolution must be put to vote at the second of those annual general meetings.

If more than 50% of votes cast are in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene a shareholder 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.

8

/1464_7

2.3 Previous voting results

At the Company’s previous annual general meeting the votes cast against the remuneration report considered at that annual general meeting were less than 25%. Accordingly, the Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Meeting.

3. RESOLUTION 2 – RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTOR – TONY HUSTON

3.1 General

Listing Rule 14.5 provides that an entity which has directors must hold an election of directors at each annual general meeting.

The Constitution sets out the requirements for determining which Directors are to retire by rotation at an annual general meeting.

Tony Huston, who has served as a Director since 26 June 2017 and was last reelected on 10 December 2020, retires by rotation and seeks re-election.

3.2

Qualifications and other material directorships

Mr Huston has been involved for over 40 years in engineering and hydrocarbon industries for both on and off shore exploration/development. Early career experience commenced with Fitzroy Engineering Ltd, primarily working on development of onshore oil fields. During the 1990’s Tony managed JFP NZ International, a Texas based exploration company that included a Jack Up rig operating in NZ waters. In 1994 Tony oversaw the environmental consent process required to drill a near inshore well that was drilled from “land” into the offshore basin during 1995. In 1996 Tony formed his own E&P Company to focus re-entry of onshore wells, primarily targeting shallow pay that had been passed or ignored from previous operations. This was successful and the two plays opened up 20 years ago are still in operation. Recent focus (12 years) has been to utilise new technology for enhanced resource recovery and has been demonstrated in various fields, including US, Mexico, Oman, Italy and Turkmenistan.

During the last 3 years Tony has held the following listed company directorships:

  • (a) MEC Resources Limited (from October 2020 to present); and

  • (b) Tony is also a non-executive director of Advent Energy Limited and Clean Carbon Technologies.

3.3

Independence

Mr Huston has no interests, position, association or relationship that might influence, or reasonably be perceived to influence, in a material respect his capacity to bring an independent judgement to bear on issues before the board and to act in the best interest of the entity and its security holders generally.

If re-elected the board considers Mr Huston will be an independent director.

3.4

Board recommendation

The Board has reviewed Mr Huston’s performance since his appointment to the Board and considers that his skills and experience will continue to enhance the Board’s ability to perform its role. Accordingly, the Board supports the re-election of Tony Huston and recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.

BPH -2022 AGM Notice - ASX Approved

4. RESOLUTION 3 – APPROVAL OF 7.1A MANDATE

4.1 General

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of Equity Securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that period.

However, under Listing Rule 7.1A, an eligible entity may seek shareholder approval by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25% ( 7.1A Mandate ).

An ‘eligible entity’ means an entity which is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300,000,000 or less. The Company is an eligible entity for these purposes.

As at the date of this Notice, 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 $20,713,533 (based on the number of Shares on issue and the closing price of Shares on the ASX on 21 October 2022).

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval by way of special resolution for the Company to have the additional 10% placement capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval.

For note, a special resolution is a resolution requiring at least 75% of votes cast by shareholders present and eligible to vote at the meeting in favour of the resolution.

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities up to the combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without any further Shareholder approval.

If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the additional 10% capacity to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A and will remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing Equity Securities without Shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.

4.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.1A

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to Resolution 3:

  • (a) Period for which the 7.1A Mandate is valid

The 7.1A Mandate will commence on the date of the Meeting and expire on the first to occur of the following:

(i) the date that is 12 months after the date of this Meeting;

(ii) the time and date of the Company’s next annual general meeting; and

(iii) the time and date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change in the nature or scale of activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of the main undertaking).

10

BPH -2022 AGM Notice - ASX Approved

(b) Minimum price

Any Equity Securities issued under the 7.1A Mandate must be in an existing quoted class of Equity Securities and be issued for cash consideration at a minimum price of 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

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

  • (ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 trading days of the date in Section 7.2(b)(i), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

(c)

Use of funds raised under the 7.1A Mandate

The Company intends to use funds raised from issues of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate for the Company’s investments in Cortical Dynamics Limited, Molecular Discovery Systems Limited and the Advent Energy Limited group of companies, the acquisition of new assets and investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition), debt reduction and general working capital.

(d) Risk of Economic and Voting Dilution

Any issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue.

If Resolution 3 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 7.1A Mandate, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below.

The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in Listing Rule 7.1A.2, on the basis of the closing market price of Shares and the number of Equity Securities on issue or proposed to be issued as at 21 October 2022.

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 7.1A Mandate.

*The number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a prorata rights issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

The table above uses the following assumptions:

  1. There are currently:

  2. (a) 863,064,700 existing Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice; and

  3. (b) 14,533,221 Shares which will be issued if Resolution 5 is passed at this Meeting.

  4. The issue price set out above is the closing market price of the Shares on the ASX on 21 October 2022 (being $0.0240).

  5. The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate.

  6. The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

  7. The issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate consists only of Shares. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities. If the issue of Equity Securities includes quoted Options, it is assumed that those quoted Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.

  8. The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.

  9. This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under Listing Rule 7.1 unless otherwise disclosed.

  10. 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%.

  11. The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 7.1A Mandate, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.

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

12

BPH -2022 AGM Notice - ASX Approved

  • (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.

(e) Allocation policy under the 7.1A Mandate

The recipients of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 7.1A Mandate have not yet been determined. However, the recipients of Equity Securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company.

The Company will determine the recipients at the time of the issue under the 7.1A Mandate, having regard to the following factors:

  • (i) the purpose of the issue;

  • (ii) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue, share purchase plan, placement or other offer where existing Shareholders may 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 position and solvency of the Company;

  • (v) prevailing market conditions; and

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

(f) Previous approval under Listing Rule 7.1A

The Company previously obtained approval from its Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 29 November 2021 ( Previous Approval ).

During the 12-month period preceding the date of the Meeting, being on and from 30 November 2021, the Company issued 67,603,981 Shares pursuant to the Previous Approval ( Previous Issue ), which represent approximately 10% of the total diluted number of Equity Securities on issue in the Company on 30 November 2021, which was 672,925,102.

The Company’s 7.1A Mandate was approved by Shareholders at the annual general meeting held on 29 November 2021. The remaining 14,533,221 October Placement Shares are subject to Shareholder approval pursuant to Resolution 5.

The Company proposes to issue up to 66,494,825 free-attaching October Placement Options subject to Shareholder approval under Resolution 6. Each October Placement Option is exercisable at $0.03 per Option and may be exercised on or before 30 September 2024. The Company intends to apply for the quotation of the October Placement Options.

For further information in respect to the October Placement, please refer to the Company’s ASX announcement released on 11 October 2022.

Under this Notice, Shareholders are being asked to:

  • (a) ratify the issue of 51,961,604 October Placement Shares using the Company’s placement capacity Listing Rule 7.1A, pursuant to Resolution 4;

  • (b) approve the issue of up to 14,533,221 October Placement Shares under Resolution 5; and

The Company appointed EverBlu Capital Pty Ltd (ACN 612 793 683) ( EverBlu ) as the lead manager in respect to the October Placement. Pursuant to a lead

15

BPH -2022 AGM Notice - ASX Approved

manager mandate term sheet, EverBlu received a 6% cash fee on funds raised by EverBlu in the October Placement and will be issued one (1) broker option for every three (3) October Placement Shares issued, resulting in the number of broker options to be issued being 22,164,942 ( Broker Option ). The Broker Options are issued on the same terms and conditions as the October Placement Options.

The Company also intends to apply for the quotation of the Broker Options.

A summary of the material terms of the Lead Manager mandate term sheet is as follows:

Fees 6% on funds raised by EverBlu in the October Placement
Lead
Manager
Options
One (1) option for every three (3) October Placement Shares
issued subject to shareholder approval.
Term The Company agrees that EverBlu will act in an exclusive
capacity as Lead Manager on all capital raising activities for a
period of 6 months from the date of signing this agreement.
Cornerstone
Investor
The October Placement was cornerstoned by EverBlu or its
principals.

Shareholders are being asked to approve the issue of the Broker Options under Resolution 7.

5.3 Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that 12 month period.

Under Listing Rule 7.1A however, an eligible entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25%.

The issue of the October Placement Shares did not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as the issue has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12 month period following completion of the Placement.

5.4

Listing Rule 7.4

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the October Placement Shares.

16

BPH -2022 AGM Notice - ASX Approved

5.5 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 4 is passed, the October Placement Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the October Placement Shares.

If Resolution 4 is not passed, the October Placement Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the October Placement Shares.

It is noted that the Company’s ability to utilise the additional 10% capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A for issues of equity securities following this Meeting remains conditional on Resolution 3 being passed at this Meeting.

5.6 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.5

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 4:

  • (a) the October Placement Shares were issued to professional and sophisticated investors who are clients of EverBlu.

9.4

Listing Rules 7.1A and 7.1

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that 12 month period.

Under Listing Rule 7.1A however, an eligible entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25%.

The Company obtained approval to increase its limit to 25% at the annual general meeting held on 29 November 2021.

The issue of the August Placement Shares did not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as the issue has not yet been approved by Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A,

reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12 month period following completion of the Placement.

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Placement Shares.

9.6 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 8 is not passed, the August Placement Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the August Placement Shares.

If Resolution 9 is passed, the August Placement Shares the subject of Resolution 7 will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 10% limit in Listing Rule 7.1A, effectively increasing the number of equity securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the August Placement Shares.

11. RESOLUTION 11 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE PLACEMENT FEE OPTIONS – AUGUST PLACEMENT

11.1 General

As summarised in Section 9.2 above, the Company entered into the Lead Manager mandate and has agreed to issue EverBlu (or its nominee) 36,461,538 Broker Options for services performed in connection with the Placement.

A summary of the material terms of the Lead Manager mandate is set out in Section 9.2 above. Resolution 11 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of the Broker Options to EverBlu.

11.2 Listing Rule 7.1

As summarised in Section 9.4 above, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

The proposed issue of the Broker Options does not fall within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and exceeds the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1. the effect of Resolution 11 will be to allow the Company to issue the Broker Options during the period of 3 months after the meeting, (or a longer period if allowed by ASX), without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.

11.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 11 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Broker Options. In addition, the issue of the Broker Options will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 11 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Broker Options and the Company will need to pay EverBlu the cash equivalent of the Broker Options in accordance with the terms of the Lead Manager mandate.

11.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7. 1

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 11:

  • (a) the Broker Options will be issued to EverBlu (or its nominee/s);

  • (b) the maximum number of Broker Options to be issued is 36,461,538;

  • (c) the terms and conditions of the Broker Options are set out in Schedule 1;

  • (d) the Broker Options will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules) and it is intended that issue of the Broker Options will occur on the same date;

  • (e) the Broker Options will be issued at a nil issue price, in consideration for lead manager and bookrunner services provided by EverBlu;

BPH -2022 AGM Notice - ASX Approved

  • (f) the purpose of the issue of the Broker Options is to satisfy the Company’s obligations under the Lead Manager Mandate;

  • (g) the Broker Options are being issued to EverBlu under the Lead Manager mandate. A summary of the material terms of the Lead Manager mandate for the August Placement is set out in Section 9.2; and

  • (h) the Broker Options are not being issued under, or to fund, a reverse takeover.

12. RESOLUTION 12 – ADOPTION OF INCENTIVE PERFORMANCE RIGHTS AND OPTIONS PLAN

12.1 General

Resolution 12 seeks Shareholder approval for the adoption of the employee incentive scheme titled “Incentive Performance Rights and Options Plan” ( Plan ) and for the issue of up to a maximum of 86,000,000 Performance Rights and Options under the Plan in accordance with Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)).

The objective of the Plan is to attract, motivate and retain key employees and the Company considers that the adoption of the Plan and the future issue of Performance Rights or Options under the Plan will provide selected employees with the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company.

As summarised in Section 9.4 above, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)) provides that Listing Rule 7.1 does not apply to an issue of securities under an employee incentive scheme if, within three years before the date of issue of the securities, the holders of the entity’s ordinary securities have approved the issue of equity securities under the scheme as exception to Listing Rule 7.1.

Exception 13(b) is only available if and to the extent that the number of equity securities issued under the scheme does not exceed the maximum number set out in the entity’s notice of meeting dispatched to shareholders in respect of the meeting at which shareholder approval was obtained pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b). Exception 13(b) also ceases to be available if there is a material change to the terms of the scheme from those set out in the notice of meeting.

If Resolution 12 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Performance Rights and Options under the Plan to eligible participants over a period of 3 years. The issue of any Performance Rights or Options to eligible participants under the Plan (up to the maximum number of Securities stated in Section 73.2(c)(c) below) will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company must seek Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14 in respect of any future issues of Performance Rights or Options under the Plan to a related party or a person whose relationship with the company or the related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained.

If Resolution 12 is not passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of Performance Rights and Options under the Plan to eligible participants, but any issues of Performance Rights or Options will reduce, to that extent, the Company’s

28

BPH -2022 AGM Notice - ASX Approved

capacity to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the issue of the Performance Rights or Options.

12.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13)

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13), the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 12:

  • (a) a summary of the key terms and conditions of the Plan is set out in Schedule 2;

  • (b) the Company has issued 600,000 Options under its previous plan titled BPH Energy Employee Incentive Option Scheme which was approved by Shareholders in 2019. The Company has not issued any Performance Rights or Options under the Plan as this is the first time that Shareholder approval is being sought for the adoption of the Plan; and

  • (c) the Company is seeking Shareholder approval to adopt the Plan to:

  • (i) allow the Company to have the option to issue Options and Performance Rights under the Plan; and

  • (ii) include the new terms and conditions required by Division 1A of Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act, which replaced the previous relief provided by ASIC Class Order 14/1000 (Employee Incentive Scheme); and

  • (d) the maximum number of Securities proposed to be issued under the Plan, following Shareholder approval, is 86,000,000 Securities. It is not envisaged that the maximum number of Securities for which approval is sought will be issued immediately.

13. RESOLUTION 13 – ISSUE OF INCENTIVE OPTIONS TO DIRECTOR - DAVID BREEZE

13.1 General

The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval and to the adoption of the Employee Incentive Securities Plan (refer Resolution 12), to issue 15,000,000 Options to Mr David Breeze pursuant to the Incentive Performance Rights and Options Plan and on the terms and conditions set out below ( Incentive Options ).

13.2 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act requires that for a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:

  • (a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and

  • (b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,

unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.

29

BPH -2022 AGM Notice - ASX Approved

The issue of the Incentive Options to Mr Breeze (or his nominee) constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mr Breeze is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director.

The Directors (other than Mr Breeze who has a material personal interest in the Resolution) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the grant of Options because the agreement to issue the Incentive Options, reached as part of the remuneration package for David Breeze, is considered reasonable remuneration in the circumstances and was negotiated on an arm’s length basis.

13.3 Listing Rule 10.11

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed company must not issue or agree to issue equity securities to:

  • 10.11.1 a related party;

  • 10.11.2 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the company;

  • 10.11.3 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (10%+) holder in the company and who has nominated a director to the board of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so;

  • 10.11.4 an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3; or

  • 10.11.5 a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders,

unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.

The issue of the Incentive Options falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.

Resolution 13 seeks the required Shareholder approval for the issue of the Incentive Options under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.

13.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 13 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Incentive Options to Mr David Breeze within one month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules). As approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Incentive Options (because approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11), the issue of the Incentive Options will not use up any of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.

If Resolution 13 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Incentive Options and the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Incentive Options to Mr Breeze under the Incentive Performance Rights and Options Plan.

30

BPH -2022 AGM Notice - ASX Approved

13.5 Technical Information required by Listing Rule 10.13

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 13:

  • (a) the Incentive Options will be issued to Mr David Breeze (or his nominee), who falls within the category set out in Listing Rule 10.11.1 as Mr Breeze is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director;

  • (b) the maximum number of Incentive Options to be issued is 15,000,000;

  • (c) the current total remuneration package for Mr David Breeze is $148,000, comprising of directors’ fees/salary of $148,000, a superannuation payment of $Nil and share-based payments of $Nil. If the Incentive Options are issued, the total remuneration package of Mr David Breeze will increase by $56,012 (based on a Black & Scholes methodology) to $204,012, using the following assumptions

Assumptions:
Valuation date 21 October 2022
Market price of Shares $0.024 cents
Exercise price $0.03 cents
Expiry date (length of time from issue) 30 September 2024
Risk free interest rate 2.5%
Volatility (discount) 40%
Indicative value per Incentive Option $0.0373 cents
Total Value of Incentive Options $56,012

The Incentive Options to be issued to Mr Breeze have the same exercise price and expiration date as the Placement Options issued to Placement Participants under the August Placement and October Placement.

  • (d) as this is the first time that the Shareholder approval is being sought for the adoption of the Incentive Performance Rights and Options Plan, no Options have been previously issued under Incentive Performance Rights and Options Plan;

  • (e) the terms and conditions of the Incentive Options are set out in Schedule 3;

  • (f) the Incentive Options are unquoted Options. The Company has chosen to issue Incentive Options to Mr Breeze for the following reasons:

  • (i) the Incentive Options are unquoted, therefore, the issue of the Incentive Options to Mr Breeze has no immediate dilutionary impact on Shareholders;

  • (ii) the issue of Incentive Options to Mr Breeze will align the interests of Mr Breeze with those of Shareholders;

31

BPH -2022 AGM Notice - ASX Approved

  • (iii) the issue of the Incentive Options is a reasonable and appropriate method to provide cost effective remuneration as the non-cash form of this benefit will allow the Company to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on its operations than it would if alternative cash forms of remuneration were given to Mr Breeze;

  • (iv) because of the deferred taxation benefit which is available to Mr Breeze in respect of an issue of Options. This is also beneficial to the Company as it means Mr Breeze is not required to immediately sell the Incentive Options to fund a tax liability (as would be the case in an issue of Shares where the tax liability arises upon issue of the Shares) and will instead, continue to hold an interest in the Company; and

  • (v) it is not considered that there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company or benefits foregone by the Company in issuing the Incentive Options on the terms proposed;

  • (g) the Incentive Options will be issued no later than 3 years after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules) and it is intended that issue of the Incentive Options will occur on one date;

  • (h) the issue price of the Incentive Options will be nil. The Company will not receive any other consideration in respect of the issue of the Incentive Options (other than in respect of funds received on exercise of the Incentive Options);

  • (a) a summary of the material terms and conditions of the Incentive Performance Rights and Options Plan is set out in Schedule 1;

  • (i) no loan is being made to Mr Breeze in connection with the acquisition of the Incentive Options; and

  • (b) details of any Options issued under the Incentive Performance Rights and Options Plan will be published in the annual report of the Company relating to the period in which they were issued, along with a statement that approval for the issue was obtained under Listing Rule 10.14; and

  • (c) any additional persons covered by Listing Rule 10.14 who become entitled to participate in an issue of Options under the Incentive Performance Rights and Options Plan after Resolution 12 is approved and who were not named in this Notice will not participate until approval is obtained under Listing Rule 10.14.

SCHEDULE 2– TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE COMPANY’S INCENTIVE PERFORMANCE RIGHTS AND OPTIONS PLAN

A summary of the material terms of the Company’s Incentive Performance Rights and Options Plan ( Plan ) is set out below.

Eligible Participant Eligible Participantmeans a person that is a ‘primary participant’
(as that term is defined in Division 1A of Part 7.12 of the Corporations
Act) in relation to the Company or an Associated Body Corporate
(as defined in the Corporations Act) and has been determined by
the Board to be eligible to participate in the Plan from time to time.
Purpose The purpose of the Plan is to:
(a)
assist in the reward, retention, and motivation of Eligible
Participants;
(b)
link the reward of Eligible Participants to Shareholder value
creation; and
(c)
align the interests of Eligible Participants with shareholders
of the Group (being the Company and each of its
Associated
Bodies
Corporate),
by
providing
an
opportunity to Eligible Participants to receive an equity
interest in the Company in the form of securities.
Plan administration The Plan will be administered by the Board. The Board may exercise
any power or discretion conferred on it by the Plan rules in its sole
and absolute discretion (except to the extent that it prevents the
Participant relying on the deferred tax concessions under
Subdivision 83A-C of the_Income Tax Assessment Act 1997_(Cth)).
The Board may delegate its powers and discretion.
Eligibility, invitation
and application
The Board may from time to time determine that an Eligible
Participant may participate in the Plan and make an invitation to
that Eligible Participant to apply for any (or any combination of)
Options and Performance Rights provided under the Plan on such
terms and conditions as the Board decides.
On receipt of an invitation, an Eligible Participant may apply for the
securities the subject of the invitation by sending a completed
application form to the Company. The Board may accept an
application from an Eligible Participant in whole or in part.
If an Eligible Participant is permitted in the invitation, the Eligible
Participant may, by notice in writing to the Board, nominate a party
in whose favour the Eligible Participant wishes to renounce the
invitation.
Grant of securities The Company will, to the extent that it has accepted a duly
completed application, grant the Participant the relevant number
and type of securities, subject to the terms and conditions set out in
the invitation, the Plan rules and any ancillary documentation
required.

37

BPH -2022 AGM Notice - ASX Approved

Rights attaching to
securities
Prior to an Option or Performance Right being exercised, the
holder:
(a)
does not have any interest (legal, equitable or otherwise)
in any Share the subject of the convertible security other
than as expressly set out in the Plan;
(b)
is not entitled to receive notice of, vote at or attend a
meeting of the shareholders of the Company;
(c)
is not entitled to receive any dividends declared by the
Company; and
(d)
is not entitled to participate in any new issue of Shares (see
Adjustment of convertible securities section below).
Vesting
of
convertible
securities
Any vesting conditions applicable to the Options or Performance
Rights will be described in the invitation. If all the vesting conditions
are satisfied and/or otherwise waived by the Board, a vesting
notice will be sent to the Participant by the Company informing
them that the relevant securities have vested. Unless and until the
vesting notice is issued by the Company, the securities will not be
considered to have vested. For the avoidance of doubt, if the
vesting conditions relevant to an Option or Performance Right are
not satisfied and/or otherwise waived by the Board, that security
will lapse.
Exercise
of
convertible
securities
and
cashless exercise
To exercise a security, the Participant must deliver a signed notice
of exercise and, subject to a cashless exercise (see next paragraph
below), pay the exercise price (if any) to or as directed by the
Company, at any time following vesting of the Option or
Performance Right (if subject to vesting conditions) and prior to the
expiry date as set out in the invitation or vesting notice.
An invitation to apply for Options may specify that at the time of
exercise of the Options, the Participant may elect not to be
required to provide payment of the exercise price for the number
of Options specified in a notice of exercise, but that on exercise of
those Options the Company will transfer or issue to the Participant
that number of Shares equal in value to the positive difference
between the Market Value of the Shares at the time of exercise
and the exercise price that would otherwise be payable to
exercise those Options.
Market Valuemeans, at any given date, the volume weighted
average price per Share traded on the ASX over the 5 trading days
immediately preceding that given date, unless otherwise specified
in an invitation.
An Option or a Performance Right may not be exercised unless and
until that security has vested in accordance with the Plan rules, or
such earlier date as set out in the Plan rules.
Timing of issue of
Shares
and
quotation of Shares
on exercise
As soon as practicable after the valid exercise of an Option or a
Performance Right by a Participant, the Company will issue or
cause to be transferred to that Participant the number of Shares to
which the Participant is entitled under the Plan rules and issue a
substitute certificate for any remaining unexercised securities held
by that Participant.

38

BPH -2022 AGM Notice - ASX Approved

Restrictions on
dealing with
securities
A holder may not sell, assign, transfer, grant a security interest over
or otherwise deal with an Option or a Performance Right that has
been granted to them unless otherwise determined by the Board.
A holder must not enter into any arrangement for the purpose of
hedging their economic exposure to an Option or a Performance
Right that has been granted to them.
However, in Special Circumstances as defined under the Plan
(including in the case of death or total or permanent disability of
the Participant) a Participant may deal with convertible securities
granted to them under the Plan with the consent of the Board.
Listing of
convertible
securities
An Option or a Performance Right granted under the Plan will not
be quoted on the ASX or any other recognised exchange. The
Board reserves the right in its absolute discretion to apply for
quotation of an Option granted under the Plan on the ASX or any
other recognised exchange.
Forfeiture
of
convertible
securities
Options and Performance Rights will be forfeited in the following
circumstances:
(a)
where a Participant who holds Options or Performance
Rights ceases to be an Eligible Participant (e.g., is no
longer employed or their office or engagement is
discontinued with the Group), all unvested convertible
securities will automatically be forfeited by the Participant;
(b)
where a Participant acts fraudulently or dishonestly,
negligently, in contravention of any Group policy or wilfully
breaches their duties to the Group;
(c)
where there is a failure to satisfy the vesting conditions in
accordance with the Plan;
(d)
on the date the Participant becomes insolvent; or
(e)
on the expiry date of the Options or Performance Rights.
Change of control If a change of control event occurs, or the Board determines that
such an event is likely to occur, the Board may in its discretion
determine the manner in which any or all of the holder’s Options or
Performance Rights will be dealt with, including, without limitation,
in a manner that allows the holder to participate in and/or benefit
from any transaction arising from or in connection with the change
of control event.
Adjustment
of
convertible
securities
If there is a reorganisation of the issued share capital of the
Company (including any subdivision, consolidation, reduction,
return or cancellation of such issued capital of the Company), the

than an issue in lieu of dividends or by way of dividend
reinvestment), the holder of Options or Performance Rights is

restrictions as to the disposal or other dealing by a Participant for a

appropriate to ensure the compliance by the Participant with this
restriction.

the Plan, the Participant will not:
(a)
transfer, encumber or otherwise dispose of, or have a
security interest granted over that Share; or
(b)
take any action or permit another person to take any
action to remove or circumvent the disposal restrictions
without the express written consent of the Company.

complies with section 708A(5)(e) of the Corporations Act, Shares
issued on exercise of an Option or a Performance Rights may not
be traded until 12 months after their issue unless the Company, at
its sole discretion, elects to issue a prospectus pursuant to section
708A(11) of the Act.
Restrictions are imposed by applicable law on dealing in Shares by
persons who possess material information likely to affect the value
of the Shares and which is not generally available. These laws may
restrict the acquisition or disposal of Shares by you during the time
the holder has such information.
Any Shares issued to a holder upon exercise of an Option or a
Performance Right shall be subject to the terms of the Company’s
Securities Trading Policy.
Buy-Back Subject to applicable law, the Company may at any time buy-
back Options or Performance Rights and Shares issued upon
exercise of Options or Performance Rights in accordance with the
terms of the Plan.

share trust or other mechanism for the purposes of holding
securities for holders under the Plan and delivering Shares on behalf
of holders upon exercise of Options or Performance Rights.
