10

==> picture [110 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

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.

1.3 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 Annual General Meeting.

4. Resolutions 4 and 5 – Ratification of Prior Issue of Shares and Options under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A - Tranche 1 Placement

4.1 General

On 12 May 2021, the Company announced that it had agreed to undertake a placement to institutional, sophisticated and professional investors, of 18,185,125 Shares at an issue price of $0.08 per Share ( Placement Shares ) together with 6,061,707 free-attaching Options (on the basis of one (1) Option for every three (3) Placement Shares subscribed for and issued) ( Placement Options ) (together, the Placement Securities ) raising $1,454,810 before costs ( Placement ), of which:

  • 106,302 Placement Shares and 3,333,333 Placement Options were issued on 14 May 2021 pursuant to the Company’s existing placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 (ratification of which is being sought under Resolution 4);

  • 9,893,698 Placement Shares were issued on 14 May 2021 pursuant to the Company’s 7.1A mandate which was approved by Shareholders at the annual general meeting held on 19 November 2020 under Listing Rule 7.1A (ratification of which is being sought under Resolution 5),

(together, Tranche 1 Placement Securities ); and

  • 8,185,125 Placement Shares and 2,728,374 Placement Options will be issued upon receipt of all necessary regulatory and shareholder approvals (approval of which is being sought under Resolutions 7 and 8) ( Tranche 2 Placement Securities ).

Subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory and shareholder approvals the major shareholders of the Company, Willoughby Capital Pty Ltd as trustee for the Willoughby Capital Trust ( Willoughby Capital ) and SG Fleet Management Pty Limited ( SG Fleet ), agreed to subscribe for Tranche 2 Placement Securities.

The Company engaged the services of Mahe Capital Pty Ltd (ACN 634 087 84) (AFSL 517 246) ( Mahe Capital ) to act as lead manager and corporate advisor to the Placement. The Company agreed to pay Mahe Capital a fee of $72,741 (being, 5% of the amount raised under the Placement) and one (1) Option for every $2.00 raised under the Placement in consideration for lead manager services provided. A summary of the material terms of the Mahe Capital Lead Manager Mandate are detailed in Schedule 2.

The Placement Options are quoted under ASX code CL8OB and have an exercise price of $0.16 per Option and an expiry date of 31 May 2023. The terms and conditions of the Placement Options are detailed in Schedule 1.

4.2 ASX 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 the period.

12

==> picture [110 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

Under Listing Rule 7.1A, 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 19 November 2020. 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 17 being passed at this Meeting.

The issue of Tranche 1 Placement Securities does not fit within any of the exceptions set out in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by the Company’s shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the issue date of the Tranche 1 Placement Securities.

4.3 ASX Listing Rule 7.4

Listing Rule 7.4 allows 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 be 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 into 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 Tranche 1 Placement Securities.

Resolutions 4 and 5 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of Tranche 1 Placement Securities.

4.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolutions 4 and 5 are passed, the Placement Securities 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 it can issue without shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date of the Tranche 1 Placement Securities.

If Resolutions 4 and 5 are not passed, the Placement Securities will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities it can issue without shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date of the Tranche 1 Placement Securities.

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 17 being passed at this Meeting.

4.5 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.5

Pursuant to, and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided in relation to Resolutions 4 and 5:

  • (a) in accordance with paragraph 7.4 of ASX Guidance Note 21, the Company confirms that none of the recipients of the Tranche 1 Placement Securities were:

  • (c) the issue price per Placement Share was $0.08 and the issue price of the Options was nil as they were issued free attaching with the Shares on the basis of one (1) Option for every three (3) Placement Shares subscribed for and issued. The Company has not and will not receive any other consideration for the issue of the Placement Securities (other than in respect of funds received on exercise of the Placement Options);

  • (d) the Placement Shares issued were all fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares.

On 14 May 2021, the Company issued 2,096,057 Options to a nominee of Mahe Capital under the Lead Manager Mandate, being one (1) Option for every $2.00 raised under Tranche 1 of the Placement and the Rights Issue Placement in consideration for lead manager services provided ( Lead Manager Options ).

5.2 Material Terms of the Lead Manager Mandate

Refer to Schedule 2 for the material terms and conditions of the Lead Manager Mandate.

5.3 ASX Listing Rule 7.1

As summarised in Section 4.2 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 issue of the Lead Manager Options does not fit within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by the Company’s shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the issue date of the Lead Manager Options.

5.4 ASX Listing Rule 7.4

Listing Rule 7.4 allows 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 be 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 into 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 Lead Manager Options.

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Lead Manager Options.

5.5 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 4 is passed, the Lead Manager Options will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of equity securities it can issue without shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date of the Lead Manager Options.

If Resolution 4 is not passed, the Lead Manager Options will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities it can issue without shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date of the Lead Manager Options.

5.7 Board recommendation

5.8 Voting Intention

The Chair of the Meeting intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of the Resolution.

6. Resolutions 7 and 8 – Approval to issue Shares and Options to Willoughby Capital and SG Fleet – Tranche 2 Placement

6.1 General

As noted in Section 4.1 above, subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory and shareholder approvals the major shareholders of the Company, Willoughby Capital Pty Ltd as trustee for the Willoughby Capital Trust ( Willoughby Capital ) and SG Fleet Management Pty Limited ( SG Fleet ), agreed to subscribe for Tranche 2 Placement Securities under the Placement. Further details of the Placement are set out in Section 4.1.

6.2 Material Terms of the Subscription Agreements

On 13 May 2021, the Company entered into subscription agreements with Willoughby Capital and SG Fleet in respect of the Tranche 2 Placement Securities ( Subscription Agreements ).

Under the terms of the Subscription Agreements, subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory and shareholder approvals, the Placement Shares will be issued at an issue price of $0.08 per Share together with free-attaching Options (on the basis of one (1) Option for every three (3) Placement Shares subscribed for and issued) raising a total of $654,810 before costs, as follows:

  • 4,617,200 Placement Shares and 1,539,066 Placement Options to Willoughby Capital raising $369,376 (approval of which is being sought under Resolution 7); and

  • 3,567,925 Placement Shares and 1,189,308 Placement Options to SG Fleet raising $285,434 (approval of which is being sought under Resolution 8).

The Subscription Agreements contain provision considered standard for agreement of their nature (including representations and warranties and confidentiality provisions).

6.3 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

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

15

==> picture [110 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

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.

The issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Securities to Willoughby Capital would constitute the giving of a financial benefit and Mr Abolakian is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director.

The Directors (other than Mr Abolakian who abstained) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the Resolution 7 because the Shares will be issued to Willoughby Capital are on the same terms as Shares issued to non-related party participants in the Placement and as such the giving of the financial benefit is on arm’s length terms, an exception under section 210 of the Corporations Act.

6.4 ASX 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 Tranche 2 Placement Securities to Willoughby Capital falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and to SG Fleet falls within 10.11.3 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.

Resolutions 7 and 8 seeks the required Shareholder approval for the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Securities under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.

6.5 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolutions 7 and 8 are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Securities to Willoughby Capital and SG Fleet 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 Tranche 2 Placement Securities (because approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11), the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Securities will not use up any of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.

If Resolutions 7 and 8 are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Securities and the Company will not raise $654,810 in cash.

6.6 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 10.13

Pursuant to, and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to Resolutions 7 and 8:

  • (a) the Tranche 2 Placement Securities will be issued to:

  • (i) Willoughby Capital, which falls within the category set out in Listing Rule 10.11.1 by virtue of the fact that Mr Stephen Abolakian, a director of the Company, is a potential beneficiary of the Willoughby Capital Trust; and

  • (ii) SG Fleet, which falls within the category set out in Listing Rule 10.11.3 by virtue of the fact that it is a substantial holder and nominated Mr Robbie Blau, an existing director, to the board of the Company;

  • (b) the Tranche 2 Placement Securities will be issued as follows:

  • (i) 4,617,200 Placement Shares and 1,539,066 Placement Options to Willoughby Capital raising $369,376 (approval of which is being sought under Resolution 7); and

  • (ii) 3,567,925 Placement Shares and 1,189,308 Placement Options to SG Fleet raising $285,434 (approval of which is being sought under Resolution 8);

16

==> picture [110 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

  • (c) the issue price per Placement Share is $0.08 and the issue price of the Options is nil as they will be issued free attaching with the Shares on the basis of one (1) Option for every three (3) Placement Shares subscribed for and issued. The Company will raise a total of $654,810 but will not receive any other consideration for the issue of the Placement Securities (other than in respect of funds received on exercise of the Placement Options);

  • (d) the Placement Shares will be all fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares.

  • (e) the Placement Options will be issued on the terms and conditions set out in Schedule 1;

  • (f) the Tranche 2 Placement Securities will be issued no later than 1 month 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 securities will occur on the same date;

  • (g) the purpose of the issue of the Tranche 2 Placement Securities is to raise a total of $654,810 before costs, which will be applied towards growth in the supply of vehicles available for subscription, demand generation and to cover costs of the issue and for working capital and general corporate purposes;

  • (h) the Tranche 2 Placement Securities were issued under Subscription Agreements. A summary of the material terms of the Subscription Agreements is set out in Section 6.2 above.

6.7 Board recommendation

The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolution.

6.8 Voting Intention

The Chair of the Meeting intends to vote all undirected proxies in favour of the Resolution.

7. Resolution 9 – Approval to issue Options to Mahe Capital pursuant to Lead Manager Mandate

7.1 General

The Company has agreed to issue 327,405 Options to a nominee of Mahe Capital under the Lead Manager Mandate, being one (1) Option for every $2.00 raised under Tranche 2 of the Placement in consideration for lead manager services provided ( Lead Manager Options ). The issue of Tranche 2 Securities is the subject of Resolutions 7 and 8.

7.2 Material Terms of the Lead Manager Mandate

Refer to Schedule 2 for the material terms and conditions of the Lead Manager Mandate.

7.3 ASX Listing Rule 7.1

As summarised in Section 4.2 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 issue of the Lead Manager Options does not fit within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 7.2 and, as it has not yet been approved by the Company’s shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 for the 12 month period following the issue date of the Lead Manager Options.

7.4 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 9 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Lead Manager Options. In addition, the issue of the Lead Manager 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 9 is not passed, the Company be able to proceed with the issue of the Lead Manager Options. If Resolution 9 is not passed the issue of the Lead Manager Options will be included from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 9 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of the Lead Manager Options.

8. Resolutions 10, 11, 12 and 13 – Approval of issue of Executive Options to Director – Chris Noone

8.1 General

The Company is seeking Shareholder approval to issue a total of 5,000,000 Executive Options to Mr Noone, CEO and Executive Director, as a long-term incentive under the terms of his executive services agreement dated 7 August 2014.

The following information is provided to assist Shareholders in assessing Resolutions 10, 11, 12 and 13 for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.11.

8.2 Chapter 2E

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits a public company from giving a financial benefit to a related party of the public company unless either:

  • (a) the giving of the financial benefit falls within one of the nominated exceptions to the provision (set out in Sections 210 to 216); or

  • (b) prior shareholder approval is obtained to the giving of the financial benefit (in accordance with Sections 217 to 227).

The issue of Executive Options constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mr Noone is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director. The Directors of the Company (excluding Mr Noone as he has a material personal interest in Resolutions 10, 11, 12 and 13) consider that Shareholder approval is not required for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act because the issue of Executive Options the subject of Resolutions 10, 11, 12 and 13 was reached as part of the remuneration package for Mr Noone, is considered reasonable remuneration in the circumstances and was negotiated on an arm’s length basis.

8.3 Listing Rule 10.11

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a 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

18

==> picture [110 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

company and has nominated a director to the board of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement that gives them a right or expectation to do so;

  • 10.11.4 an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rule 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 Executive 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 Carly’s shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.

Resolutions 10, 11, 12 and 13 seek the required shareholder approval to the issue of Executive Options under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.

If Resolutions 10, 11, 12 and 13 are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of Executive Options and incentivise Mr Noone in a manner which is linked to value accretion for Shareholders.

If Resolutions 10, 11, 12 and 13 are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of Executive Options and then, Mr Noone will receive a cash payment equivalent in value to the long-term incentive that would have been granted had shareholder approval been obtained.

Approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required in order to issue Executive Options to Mr Noone (or his nominee) under Resolutions 10, 11, 12 and 13 as approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of Executive Options to Mr Noone (or his nominee) will not be included in the 15% calculation of the Company’s annual placement capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1.

8.4 Material Terms of the Executive Services Agreement

The Executive Options will have a cashless exercise mechanism. Refer to Schedule 1 for the entire terms and conditions of the Tranche A, Tranche B, Tranche C and Tranche D Executive Options.

(b) Fair Value of Executive Options

The Black Scholes Pricing Model has been used to value the Tranche A Executive Options, with the following assumptions:

  • (i) the risk free rate of interest of 0.785% is the Australian Government 5 year bond rate;

  • (ii) the underlying security spot price of $0.06 used for the purposes of this valuation is based on the Share price of the Company as at 6 October 2021;

  • (iii) the estimated volatility used in the valuation is 75%;

  • (iv) for the purposes of the valuation, no future dividend payments have been forecast; and

  • (v) for the purposes of the valuation it is assumed that the Executive Options will be issued on 6 October 2021.

Based on the above, the total of the fair value of the Executive Options at 6 October 2021 is as follows:

Fair Value of Fair Value of Fair Value of Fair Value of
Tranche A Tranche B Tranche C Tranche D Total Fair Value of
Director Executive Options Executive Options Executive Options Executive Options Executive Options
Mr Chris Noone $37,623 $28,405 $24,105 $20,952 $111,085

No decision has been made on how funds raised from the exercise of Executive Options will be used. The Board will consider the circumstances of the Company at the time the funds are raised.

  • (f) The primary purpose of the issue of the Executive Options to Mr Noone (or his nominee) is to provide a performance linked long-term incentive component in his remuneration packages to motivate and reward his performance in his role as CEO and Executive Director, and to ensure that this incentive is linked to value accretion for Shareholders.

  1. Mr Noone may receive up to an additional $225,000 per annum in short term cash incentives subject to performance criteria being satisfied.

  2. If the Executive Options are issued, the total remuneration package of Mr Chris Noone will increase by $111,085, being the value of the Executive Options (based on the Black Scholes methodology). The value of $111,085 will be apportioned over the vesting and five year performance period.

  3. (h) A summary of the material terms of Mr Noone’s Executive Services Agreement is set out in Section 8.4 above.

  4. (i) A voting exclusion statement has been included for each Resolution.

8.7 Board Recommendation

Mr Noone declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolutions 10, 11, 12 and 13 due to Mr Noone’s material personal interest in the outcome of those Resolutions on the basis that Mr Noone is to be granted Executive Options in the Company should Resolutions 10, 11, 12 and 13 be passed. The Directors (other than Mr Noone) believe that Resolution 10, 11, 12 and 13 provides a cost-effective and efficient incentive for the Company to provide, as opposed to alternative forms of incentives and recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions.

8.8 Voting Intention

The Chairman of the meeting intends to vote all available proxies in favour of Resolutions 10, 11, 12 and 13.

9. Resolution 14 – Approval of selective buy-back of 800,000 Collateral Shares

9.1 General

Resolution 14 seeks Shareholder approval pursuant to section 257D of the Corporations Act for the selective buy-back of 800,000 Shares (on a post-consolidation basis) that were issued on 10 January 2019 to Acuity Capital Investment Management Pty Ltd as trustee for Acuity Capital Holdings Account ( Acuity Capital ) under the controlled placement deed with Acuity Capital ( Controlled Placement Deed ) ( Collateral Shares ).

Under the Controlled Placement Deed with Acuity Capital, the Company had access to up to $3,000,000 of equity over a 30month period. The Controlled Placement Deed expired on 31 July 2021. In accordance with the terms of the Controlled Placement Deed, the Company and Acuity Capital agreed to enter into a buy-back agreement in order for the Company to buy-back and cancel the Collateral Shares for nil consideration ( Buy-Back ).

- 9.2 Material terms of Buy Back Agreement

On 6 August 2021, the Company and Acuity Capital entered into a buy-back agreement ( Buy-Back Agreement ).

The material terms of the Buy-Back Agreement are as follows:

● the parties agree that the Company will buy-back the Collateral Shares from Acuity Capital for nil consideration; and

21

==> picture [110 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

  • Acuity Capital agreed to transfer the Collateral Shares within 7 days of receiving confirmation from the Company that it has received all of the approvals necessary to complete the Buy-Back.

On completion of the Buy-Back, the Collateral Shares will be cancelled pursuant to section 257H of the Corporations Act.

9.3 Corporations Act requirements

Resolution 14 seeks Shareholder approval to enable the Company to buy-back and cancel the Collateral Shares. Section 257D of the Corporations Act provides that the rules relating to share buy-backs are designed to protect the interests and shareholders and creditors by:

  • addressing the risk of the transaction leading to the company’s insolvency;

  • seeking to ensure fairness between the shareholders of the company; and

  • requiring the company to disclose all material information.

  • In particular, section 257A of the Corporations Act provides that a company may buy-back its own shares if:

  • (a) the buy-back does not materially prejudice the company’s ability to pay its creditors; and

  • (b) the company follows the procedures set out in Division 2 of Part 2J.1 of the Corporations Act.

The procedures required differ for each type of buy-back. The buy-back proposed in Resolution 14 is classified as a selective buyback because it only applies selectively to 800,000 Shares held by Acuity Capital. Pursuant to section 257D(1) of the Corporations Act, a selective buy-back must be approved by either:

  • (a) a special resolution passed at a general meeting of the Company, with no votes being cast in favour of the resolution by any person whose shares are to be bought back, or by their associates; or

  • (b) a resolution agreed to, at a general meeting by all ordinary shareholders.

Pursuant to section 257D(2) of the Corporations Act, the Company must include with the notice of meeting a statement setting out all information known to the Company that is material to the decision on how to vote on the resolution. However, the Company does not have to disclose information if it would be unreasonable to require the Company to do so because the Company had previously disclosed the information to shareholders.

Section 257H(3) of the Corporations Act provides that immediately after the registration of the transfer to a company of the shares being bought back, the shares are cancelled.

9.4 Details of the Buy-Back

ASIC Regulatory Guide 110 sets out what ASIC expects a company to provide when disclosing such information to shareholders with a notice of meeting. This information, as it relates to the proposed Buy-Back in Resolution 14 is set out below:

  • (a) the Company has 108,936,853 Shares on issue at the date of this Notice;

  • (b) the number and percentage of Shares to be bought back are 800,000 Shares, representing approximately 0.73% of the Shares on issue at the date of this Notice;

  • (c) the terms of the Buy-Back are set out in Section 9.2 above;

  • (d) there is no offer price for the Buy-Back as no consideration will be payable by the Company for the Collateral Shares;

  • (e) the reason for the Buy-Back is as a result of the expiration and termination of the Controlled Placement Deed and entry into the Buy-Back Agreement;

  • (f) no directors will participate in the Buy-Back and the directors have no material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 14;

  • (g) there will be no financial effect of the Buy-Back on the Company or Acuity Capital;

  • (h) the Directors believe the advantages and disadvantages of the Buy-Back are:

Advantages

  1. The Company’s share register is restored to the position prior to the issue of Collateral Shares ie. this means that the total Shares on issue will be reduced with no cost to Shareholders or the Company.

  2. Acuity Capital’s shareholding is restored to the position prior to the issue of the Collateral Shares ie. Acuity Capital will hold no Shares in the Company.

  3. The Company will have discharged its obligations pursuant to the Controlled Placement Deed.

  4. The Buy-Back will not materially prejudice the Company’s ability to pay its creditors.

Disadvantages

The Company does not consider that there are any other material disadvantages to the Company undertaking the Buy-Back.

22

==> picture [110 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

The Buy-Back is not expected to have any effect on the control of the Company.

Resolution 14 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of two-thirds of the votes cast by the Shareholders present and eligible to vote on poll (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative).

There is no other information material to the proposed decision by Shareholders whether or not to vote in favour of Resolution 14, being information that is known to the Directors which has not previously been disclosed to Shareholders, other than as set out in this Explanatory Memorandum.

9.5 Board recommendation

The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolution.

10. Resolution 15 – Renewal of Partial Takeover Plebiscite Clause in the Constitution

10.1 General

Section 648G(1) of the Corporations Act provides that a company’s proportional takeover approval provisions, unless sooner omitted from its constitution, cease to apply at the end of 3 years from adoption or renewal as appropriate unless otherwise specified.

When the provisions cease to apply a company’s constitution is modified by omitting the provisions.

The proportional takeover provisions included in the Constitution were renewed on 19 November 2018 and therefore will expire on 19 November 2021.

Resolution 15 is a special resolution which will enable the Company to modify its Constitution by reinstating clause 35 for a period of 3 years from the date of Shareholder approval. It is noted that Shareholder approval will not result in a change to the wording of clause 35.

The Company is permitted to seek further Shareholder approval to renew this clause for further periods of up to 3 years on each occasion.

A copy of the Constitution was released to ASX on 19 November 2018 and is available for download from the ASX announcements platform and the Company’s website.

10.2 Proportional takeover provisions (clause 35 of Constitution)

10.2.1 General

A proportional takeover bid is a takeover bid where the offer made to each shareholder is only for a proportion of that shareholder’s shares.

The proportional takeover provisions set out in clause 35 of the Constitution provides that a proportional takeover bid for Shares may only proceed after the bid has been approved by a meeting of Shareholders held in accordance with the terms set out in the Corporations Act.

This clause will cease to have effect on the third anniversary of the date of the adoption of the last renewal of the clause.

10.2.2 Information required by section 648G of the Corporations Act

Effect of proportional takeover provisions

Where offers have been made under a proportional off-market bid in respect of a class of securities in a company, the registration of a transfer giving effect to a contract resulting from the acceptance of an offer made under such a proportional off-market bid is prohibited unless and until a resolution to approve the proportional off-market bid is passed or the deadline for obtaining such approval has passed.

Reasons for proportional takeover provisions

A proportional takeover bid may result in control of the Company changing without Shareholders having the opportunity to dispose of all their Shares. By making a partial bid, a bidder can obtain practical control of the Company by acquiring less than a majority interest. Shareholders are exposed to the risk of being left as a minority in the Company and the risk of the bidder being able to acquire control of the Company without payment of an adequate control premium. These amended provisions allow Shareholders to decide whether a proportional takeover bid is acceptable in principle and assist in ensuring that any partial bid is appropriately priced.

23

==> picture [110 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

Knowledge of any acquisition proposals

As at the date of this Notice, no Director is aware of any proposal by any person to acquire, or to increase the extent of, a substantial interest in the Company.

Advantages and disadvantages of proportional takeover provisions during the period in which they have been in effect The Directors consider that the proportional takeover provisions had no advantages or disadvantages for them during the period in which they have been in effect.

The advantages and disadvantages of the proportional takeover provisions for Shareholders include those set out immediately below, which were applicable during the period in which they have been in effect.

Potential advantages and disadvantages of proportional takeover provisions

The Directors consider that the proportional takeover provisions have no potential advantages or disadvantages for them and that they remain free to make a recommendation on whether an offer under a proportional takeover bid should be accepted.

The potential advantages of the proportional takeover provisions for Shareholders include:

  • (a) the right to decide by majority vote whether an offer under a proportional takeover bid should proceed;

  • (b) assisting in preventing Shareholders from being locked in as a minority;

  • (c) increasing the bargaining power of Shareholders which may assist in ensuring that any proportional takeover bid is adequately priced; and

  • (d) each individual Shareholder may better assess the likely outcome of the proportional takeover bid by knowing the view of the majority of Shareholders which may assist in deciding whether to accept or reject an offer under the takeover bid.

The potential disadvantages of the proportional takeover provisions for Shareholders include:

  • (a) proportional takeover bids may be discouraged;

  • (b) lost opportunity to sell a portion of their Shares at a premium; and

  • (c) the likelihood of a proportional takeover bid succeeding may be reduced.

10.3 Board recommendation

The Directors do not believe the potential disadvantages outweigh the potential advantages of reinstating the proportional takeover provisions and as a result consider that the reinstatement of the proportional takeover provision set out in clause 35 of the Constitution is in the interest of Shareholders and unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 15.

11. Resolution 16 – Adoption of Employee Incentive Option Plan

11.1 General

Resolution 15 seeks Shareholder approval for the adoption of the employee incentive scheme titled “Carly Holdings Limited Employee Incentive Option Plan” ( Employee Incentive Option Plan ) and for the issue of Options under the Employee Incentive Option Plan.

The Board recognises the need to adequately incentivise and remunerate staff and effective employee incentive schemes can be used as vehicles for the Company’s long term incentive plan in addition to providing the Board with flexibility to issue other equity incentives offered by the Board from time to time. The Employee Incentive Option Plan is designed to:

  • (a) align employee incentives with Shareholders’ interests;

  • (b) encourage broad based share ownership by employees at all levels; and

  • (c) assist employee attraction and retention.

It is noted that Shareholder approval will not change the terms of the Employee Incentive Option Plan which has been in place since 30 November 2015.

11.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1

As summarised in Section 4.2 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.

11.3 ASX Listing Rule 7.2

ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 13(b)) sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 which provides that issues under an employee

24

==> picture [110 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

incentive scheme are exempt for a period of 3 years from the date on which shareholders approve the issue of securities under the scheme as an exception to ASX 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 16 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Options under the Employee Incentive Option Plan to eligible participants over a period of 3 years from the date of approval without impacting on the Company’s ability to issue up to 15% of its total ordinary securities without prior Shareholder approval in any 12 month period.

If Resolution 16 is not passed, issues of Options under the Employee Incentive Option Plan may still occur but will be counted as part of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity (as detailed in Listing Rule 7.1).

Any proposed issues of Options under the Employee Incentive Option Plan to a Director, an associate of the Director, or a person whose relationship with the Company, Director or associate of the Director is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained will require additional Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.14 at the relevant time. There is no current intention to issue Options under the Employee Incentive Option Plan to Directors.

11.4 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.2

In accordance with Exception 13 of Listing Rule 7.2, the following information is provided:

  • (a) a summary of the key terms of the Employee Incentive Option Plan is detailed in Schedule 4;

  • (b) approval was previously sought under Exception 9(b) of Listing Rule 7.2 with respect to the Employee Incentive Option Plan on 19 November 2018;

  • (c) as at the date of this Notice, a total of 2,364,012 Options (on a post-consolidation basis) have been issued under the Employee Incentive Option Plan since approval was last sought;

  • (d) up to a maximum of 8,000,000 Options are proposed to be issued under the Employee Incentive Option Plan during the 3- year period following approval by Shareholders; and

  • (e) a voting exclusion statement with respect to Resolution 16 is included in the Notice.

11.5 Board Recommendation

The Directors consider that the Employee Incentive Option Plan is an appropriate mechanism to assist the recruitment, reward, retention and motivation of employees of the Company, and unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 16.

11.6 Voting Intention

The Chair of the meeting intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 16.

12. Resolution 17 – Approval of 7.1A Mandate

12.1 Background

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.

Resolution 17 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.

If Resolution 17 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 17 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.

12.2 Specific Information required by Listing Rule 7.1A

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the information is provided below in relation to Resolution 17:

(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).

(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 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 (i) above, 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 towards driving the continuing growth of the Carly vehicle subscription business and DriveMyCar rental business through continued marketing initiatives, technology platform development and pursuit of business development opportunities to grow the available fleet size to meet the demand for vehicles and for 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 16 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 as at 6 October 2021.

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 pro-rata 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 108,936,853 Shares on issue.

  2. The issue price set out above is the closing market price of the Shares on the ASX on 6 October 2021.

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

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

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

  8. 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%.

  9. 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

  • (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 dilutionary effect of the proposed issue of the Equity Securities on existing Shareholders at the time of proposed issue of Equity Securities;

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

  • (vi) prevailing market conditions; and

  • (vii) advice from professional advisers, including corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).

  • (f) Previous approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A

  • (i) The Company previously obtained approval from its Shareholders pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1A at its Annual General Meeting held on 19 November 2020 ( Previous Approval ).

  • (ii) During the 12 month period preceding the date of the Meeting, being on and from 19 November 2020 the Company issued 9,893,698 Equity Securities pursuant to the Previous Approval, which represents 17.5% of the total number of Equity Securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period (on a post-consolidation basis).

  • (iii) The details of each issue or agreement to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months preceding the date of the Meeting are set out in Schedule 5.
