Resolution 2: Renewal of Executive Share Rights Plan
Resolution 2 provides Shareholders with the opportunity to vote to renew the Company’s Executive Share Rights Plan ( ESRP ), which was last approved by Shareholders at the Company’s AGM in 2010.
Overview
Under Listing Rule 7.1 a company must not, without the approval of its ordinary shareholders, issue more than 15% of its equity securities in any 12 month period, unless an exception applies in ASX Listing Rule 7.2.
Exception 9 to ASX Listing Rule 7.2 provides that an issue of securities under an employee incentive plan (such as the issue of share rights under the ESRP) will be treated as an exception to Listing Rule 7.1 if, within 3 years before the due date of the grant of the
2
securities, Shareholders have approved the issue of the securities pursuant to the relevant employee incentive plan as an exception to Listing Rule 7.1.
If Resolution 2 is passed, any issue of share rights under the ESRP in the next 3 years will be excluded from the 15% limit in any 12 month period under Listing Rule 7.1.
Purpose of ESRP
The broad objective of the ESRP is to assist in the recruitment, reward, retention and motivation of Company executives. Specifically, the ESRP enables payment in the form of an equity grant of the long-term incentive element of executives’ remuneration packages. The Board’s policy is that Share Rights granted under the ESRP will be exercisable for no consideration, although the Board has discretion to require executives to pay consideration. Share Rights granted at no consideration under the ESRP are in effect zero exercise-priced options, which will provide additional benefits to executives at no additional cost to the Company.
The Share Rights provide entitlement to a full Share without requiring payment by executives, eliminate the risk to executives of paying tax should the Company’s shares decline in value, and avoid the need for executives to obtain finance to exercise the Share Rights.
Terms of ESRP
The terms of the ESRP are set out in the ESRP Rules. The key elements of the ESRP are as follows:
Trustee
The Company may appoint a trustee for the purpose of acquiring and delivering shares to executives and/or holding shares on behalf of executives where this is specified at the time of grant.
Grant of Share Rights
The Board may grant Share Rights to eligible employees, excluding Non-Executive Directors. The Board will determine:
-
(a) which employees are eligible;
-
(b) vesting conditions (if any);
-
(c) disposal restrictions (if any);
-
(d) the terms of expiry of the Share Rights; and
-
(e) whether the Shares to be delivered on exercise of the Share Rights are to be held by the Trustee.
A grant of Share Rights does not confer any right or interest, legal or equitable, in Shares until all vesting conditions have either been satisfied or waived by the Board at its discretion.
Consideration
Unless otherwise determined by the Board at its discretion when making a grant of Share Rights, no amount shall be payable by an executive upon the vesting of those rights.
3
5% Cap
Unless the Board determines otherwise, the Company will not issue Shares on exercise of Share Rights if the total number of Shares so issued, when aggregated with:
-
(a) the number of Shares which could be issued were each outstanding offer or grant with respect to Shares, units of shares and Options or those rights to acquire unissued Shares, under the ESRP or any other employee or non-executive director share scheme of the Company to be accepted or exercised; and
-
(b) the number of Shares issued during the previous 5 years pursuant to the ESRP or any other employee or non-executive director share scheme of the Company,
but disregarding any offer made, or Option or Share Right acquired or Share issued by way of or as a result of an offer:
-
(c) to a person situated at the time of receipt of the offer outside Australia; or
-
(d) that did not need disclosure to investors because of section 708 of the Corporations Act or was an excluded offer or invitation under the Corporations Law; or
-
(e) that did not require the giving of a product disclosure statement (as defined in section 761A of the Corporations Act) because of section 1012D of the Corporations Act; or
-
(f) made under a disclosure document (as defined in section 9 of the Corporations Act) or product disclosure statement,
were to exceed 5% of the total number of issued Shares at the time.
Vesting of Rights
An unvested Share Right that becomes a vested right shall be automatically exercised to provide a Share to the executive.
The Company may impose disposal restrictions on the Shares provided that the maximum term of a disposal restriction does not exceed 7 years from the time of grant of those rights.
Expiry of Rights
Unless an executive ceases to be an employee of the Company by reason of death, disability, bona fide redundancy or for any other reason with approval of the Board, in which case the vesting conditions will be determined pro rata over the period from the grant of the unvested Share Rights to the date employment ceases, all unvested rights held by an executive will expire and the executive will forfeit any right or interest in the unvested rights when he or she ceases to be an employee of the Company.
If unvested Share Rights have not vested by the end of the vesting period the unvested rights shall expire.
Participation in Future Issues
An executive cannot participate in new issues of Shares or other securities unless Shares in respect of Share Rights held by the executive have been issued.
If the Company makes a pro rata bonus issue of Shares or other securities to Shareholders and Shares in respect of Share Rights held by an executive have not been issued, then the number of Shares the subject of those rights will be increased pro rata as if they had been issued.
4
If the Company makes a pro rata issue of securities other than a bonus issue to Shareholders and Shares in respect of Share Rights held by an executive have not been issued, then the number of rights or other terms and conditions applicable to those rights may be adjusted at the Board’s discretion, subject to the Listing Rules and Corporations Act.
Transfer
Without the prior approval of the Board, Share Rights and Shares subject to disposal restrictions may not be transferred or encumbered.
Reorganisation
In the event of any reorganisation of the issued Share capital of the Company, the number of Shares to be delivered in respect of each Share Right will be reorganised in the manner specified in the Listing Rules as being applicable to Options at the time of the reorganisation.
Forfeiture
An executive will forfeit all Share Rights or interests in any unvested rights or vested rights if the Board determines that the executive has committed any act of fraud, defalcation or gross misconduct.
Number of Share Rights issued under the ESRP since the date of the last approval
Set out in the table below is a summary of Share Rights granted, vested and cancelled under the ESRP as at the date of the Notice of Meeting since the ESRP was approved at the Company’s AGM in 2010:
| Number Granted | Number Cancelled |
Number Vested | Number Yet To Vest |
|
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TOTAL | 37,725,000 | 13,700,000 | 10,100,000 | 13,925,000 |
Resolution 3: Ratification of Share Issue of 72,000,000 Ordinary Shares
Resolution 3 seeks to ratify the issue of 72,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares in the Company that was completed on 8[th] October 2013.
Overview
Under Listing Rule 7.1 a company must not, without the approval of its ordinary shareholders, issue more than 15% of its equity securities in any 12 month period, unless an exception applies in ASX Listing Rule 7.2.
Listing Rule 7.4 allows a company which makes an issue that complies with Listing Rule 7.1 to obtain subsequent shareholder approval for the issue and so reinstate the company’s ability to issue up to 15% of its capital under Listing Rule 7.1. Resolution 3 complies with Listing Rule 7.4 and, if passed, will reinstate the Company’s ability to issue up to 15% capital within a 12 month period.
On 8 October 2013, the Company issued 72,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares to sophisticated and professional investors (as contemplated under the Corporations Act) at an issue price of $0.02 per share. The shares issued ranked equally with existing ordinary shares then on issue.
5
Proceeds from the capital raising will be used to:
-
(a) finance business development initiatives including the National Equipment Register and National Marine Register in Australia, the National Metals Register in the US and UK, and CopDots in the US and Canada;
-
(b) support the accelerated commercialisation of technology in DataTraceDNA Pty Limited; and
-
(c) provide additional general working capital.
Resolution 4:
Share Issue
Resolution 4 provides Shareholders with the opportunity to approve the issue and allotment of up to 28,000,000 ordinary shares to sophisticated and professional investors (as contemplated under the Corporations Act).
Overview
Under Listing Rule 7.1 a company must not, without the approval of its ordinary shareholders, issue more than 15% of its equity securities in any 12 month period, unless an exception applies in ASX Listing Rule 7.2.
On 30[th] September 2013 the Company announced it would raise $2,000,000 by placing 100,000,000 ordinary shares at $0.02 per share with sophisticated and professional investors. The placement comprised two tranches:
-
(a) Tranche 1 comprising 72,000,000 shares, which were issued on 8[th] October 2013. Tranche 1 equated to 14.8% of the Company’s equity securities as at 8[th] October 2012.
-
(b) Tranche 2, comprising the balance of 28,000,000 shares, which is subject to Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
Subject to Shareholder approval, up to 28,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares will be issued to sophisticated and professional investors by 6[th] December 2013. The shares to be issued will rank equally with existing ordinary shares then on issue.
Proceeds from the capital raising will be used to:
-
(a) finance business development initiatives including the National Equipment Register and National Marine Register in Australia, the National Metals Register in the US and UK, and CopDots in the US and Canada;

Resolution 5 provides Shareholders the opportunity to vote on the Company’s Remuneration Report. Under Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act the Company must put the adoption of its Remuneration Report to a vote at the annual general meeting. The Remuneration Report is contained in the Directors’ Report.
6
Section 250R(3) of the Corporations Act provides that Resolution 5 is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company, and a failure of Shareholders to pass Resolution 5 will not require the Directors to alter any arrangements in the Remuneration Report.
The Chairman will allow reasonable opportunity for Shareholders as a whole to ask about, or make comments on the Remuneration Report.
The Chairman intends to exercise all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 5. If the Chairman is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chairman is to vote on Resolution 5, by signing and returning the Proxy Form, you are considered to have provided the Chairman with an express authorisation for the Chairman to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chairman’s intention.
