-
The Company shall apply for listing of the resultant Shares of the Company issued upon exercise of any Option.

-
N = the number of Shares with rights or entitlements that must be held to receive a right to one new Share.
-
If there is a bonus issue to the holders of Shares in the Company, the number of Shares over which the Director Option is exercisable may be increased by the number of Shares which the Director Option holder would have received if the Director Option had been exercised before the record date for the bonus issue.
Page | 13

-
In the event of any reconstruction (including consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return) of the issued capital of the Company:
-
(a) the number of Director Options, the Exercise Price of the Director Options, or both will be reconstructed (as appropriate) in a manner consistent with the ASX Listing Rules as applicable at the time of reconstruction, but with the intention that such reconstruction will not result in any benefits being conferred on the holders of the Director Options which are not conferred on Shareholders; and
-
(b) subject to the provisions with respect to rounding of entitlements as sanctioned by a meeting of Shareholders approving a reconstruction of capital, in all other respects the terms for the exercise of the Director Options will remain unchanged.
Regulatory Requirements
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act
Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cwlth) ( Corporations Act ) prohibits a public company from giving a financial benefit to a related party of a public company unless the benefit falls within one of various exceptions to the general prohibition. One of the exceptions includes where the company first obtains the approval of its shareholders in general meeting in circumstances where the requirements of Chapter 2E in relation to the convening of that meeting have been met.
A “related party” for the purposes of the Corporations Act is defined widely and includes a director of the public company.
A “financial benefit” for the purposes of the Corporations Act has a very wide meaning. It includes the public company paying money or issuing securities to the related party. In determining whether or not a financial benefit is being given, it is necessary to look to the economic and commercial substance and effect of what the public company is doing (rather than just the legal form). Any consideration which is given for the financial benefit is to be disregarded, even if it is full or adequate.
This proposed resolution, if passed, will confer financial benefits to the Recipients and the Company seeks to obtain member approval in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and for this reason, and for all other purposes, the following information is provided to Shareholders.
(a) The related parties to whom Resolutions 5, 6, 7 and 8 would permit the financial benefit to be given
Each of Mr Mather, Mr Levy, Mr Moller and Mr Mascolo (or their respective nominees), being directors of the Company.
(b) The nature of the financial benefit
The nature of the proposed financial benefit to be given is:
-
the grant of 2,000,000 Director Options to Mr Mather as referred to in Resolution 5;
-
the grant of 500,000 Director Options to Mr Levy as referred to in Resolution 6;
-
the grant of 500,000 Director Options to Mr Moller as referred to in Resolution 7;
Page | 14
-
the grant of 500,000 Director Options to Mr Mascolo as referred to in Resolution 8;
-
the Director Options shall be granted for no cash consideration;
-
the Director Options shall be exercisable into fully paid Shares on or before 30 June 2011;
-
the exercise price is $0.275 each.
(c) Directors’ Recommendation
With respect to Resolution 5, Mr Levy, Mr Moller and Mr Mascolo recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of this resolution. The reasons for their recommendation include:
-
(i) the grant of the Director Options as proposed to Mr Mather will provide him with reward and incentive for future services he will provide to the Company to further the progress the Company;
-

Notes:
- Assuming that all of the 20,564,598 current options on issue are exercised.
(e) Valuation
The Director Options are not currently quoted on the ASX and as such have no market value. The Director Options each grant the holder thereof a right of grant of one ordinary share in the Company upon exercise of the Director Options and payment of the exercise price of the Director Options described above. Accordingly, the Director Options may have a present value at the date of their grant.
The Director Options may acquire future value dependent upon the extent to which the Shares exceed the exercise price of the Director Options during the term of the Director Options.
As a general proposition, options to subscribe for ordinary fully paid shares in a company have value. Various factors impact upon the value of options including things such as:
-
the period outstanding before the expiry date of the options;
-
the exercise price of the options relative to the underlying price or value of the securities into which they may be converted;
-
the proportion of the issued capital as expanded consequent upon exercise represented by the shares issued upon exercise (ie whether or not the shares that might be acquired upon exercise of the options represent a controlling or other significant interest);
-
the value of the shares into which the options may be converted; and
-
whether or not the options are listed (ie readily capable of being liquidated);
and so on.
There are various formulae which can be applied to determining the theoretical value of options (including the formula known as the Black‐Scholes Model option valuation formula).
The Company has sought an independent valuation of the Director Options. The method used to value the options was the Black‐Scholes Model, which is the most widely used and recognised model for pricing options. The value of an option calculated by the Black‐Scholes Model is a function of the relationship between a number of variables, being the price of the underlying Share at the time of issue, the exercise price, the time to expiry, the risk‐free interest rate, the volatility of the Company’s underlying Share price and expected dividends.
Page | 18
Inherent in the application of the Black‐Scholes Model are a number of inputs, some of which must be assumed. The data relied upon in applying the Black‐Scholes Model was:
-
an exercise price of the options being $0.275;
-
a market price of Shares of $0.25 being the closing price of Shares prior to the 12[th] October 2007 valuation, as a proxy for the market price at the future date of issue, being the date of the Annual General Meeting to approve the issue;
-
an expiry date of 30 June 2011.
-
a volatility measure of 76.731%;
-
a risk‐free interest rate of 6.42%; and
-
a dividend yield of 0.00%.
Some relatively minor variables were included in the calculation to estimate the value of Director Option as “American style” options (being exercisable at any time prior to the stated expiry date). Theoretically, the Black‐Scholes Model prices “European style” options (being exercisable only on this exercise date).
Based on this information, the Company has adopted an indicative value for the Director Options of $0.1409 each.
On that basis, the respective value of the Director Options to be issued pursuant to Resolutions 5, 6, 7 and 8 are as follows:
-
Mr Mather – $281,898
-
Mr Levy – $70,474
-
Mr Moller – $70,474
-
Mr Mascolo – $70,474
(f) Any other information that is reasonably required by Shareholders to make a decision and that is known to the Company or any of its Directors
There is no other information known to the Company or any of its directors save and except as follows:
Market Price movements:
The option valuation noted above is based on a market price of the Shares at the time of the valuation (12 October 2007).
There is a possibility that the market price of the Shares will change up to the date of the Annual General Meeting.
Page | 19
The effect on the valuation per option of movements in the market price of the Shares is set out below:
| Market Price | Valuation per option |
|---|---|
| $0.200 | $0.1024 |
| $0.225 | $0.1214 |
| $0.250 | $0.1409 |
| $0.275 | $0.1610 |
| $0.300 | $0.1815 |
| $0.325 | $0.2024 |
| $0.350 | $0.2236 |
Opportunity Costs
The opportunity costs and benefits foregone by the Company issuing the Director Options to Mr Mather, Mr Levy, Mr Moller and Mr Mascolo is the potentially diluted impact on the issued Share capital of the Company (in the event that the options are exercised). Until exercised, the issue of the Director Options will not impact upon the number of Shares on issue in the Company. To the extent that upon their exercise the dilutionary impact caused by the issue of the Shares will be detrimental to the Company, this is more than offset by the advantages accruing from the Company securing the services of experienced and skilled directors on appropriate incentive terms.
It is also considered that the potential increase of value in the Director Options is dependent upon a concomitant increase in the value of the Company generally.
Taxation Consequences
No stamp duty will be payable in respect of the grant of the Director Options. No GST will be payable by the Company in respect of the grant of the Director Options (or if it is then it will be recoverable as an input credit).
AASB 2 “Share Based Payments” requires that these payments shall be measured at the more readily determinable fair value of the equity instrument. Under the accounting standards this amount will be expensed in the statement of financial performance. Where the grant date and the vesting date are different the total expenditure calculated will be allocated between the two dates taking into account the terms and conditions attached to the instruments and the counterparties as well as management’s assumptions about probabilities of payments and compliance with and attainment of the set out terms and conditions.
Page | 20
Dilutionary Effect
If all of the Director Options granted are exercised by Mr Mather, Mr Levy, Mr Moller and Mr Mascolo, the following will be the effect on the current issued capital of the Company:
| Shareholders | Current Share Capital | Current Share Capital | Share Capital Upon | Exercise |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Current Shareholders* | 125,304,185 | 93.23% | 125,304,185 | 90.86% |
| Mr Mather | 5,919,238 | 4.40% | 7,919,238 | 5.74% |
| Mr Levy | 490,987 | 0.37% | 990,987 | 0.72% |
| Mr Moller | 991,667 | 0.74% | 1,491,667 | 1.08% |
| Mr Mascolo | 1,697,711 | 1.26% | 2,197,711 | 1.59% |
| Total | 134,403,788 | 100.00% | 137,903,788 | 100.00% |
-
Assuming that none of the following current unlisted options ( Unlisted Options* ) on issue are exercised:
-
(a) 16,664,598 unlisted options exercisable at $0.197 each expiring on 30 September 2008
-
(b) 2,400,000 unlisted employee options exercisable at $0.127 each expiring on 31 July 2008
-
(c) 1,000,000 unlisted Previous Options
-
(d) 500,000 unlisted employee options exercisable at $0.275 each expiring on 30 June 2011
In the event that, in addition to the above, all other existing options on issue (being 20,564,598 options) are exercised, current shareholders would hold 92.02% of 158,468,386 shares then on issue.
Listing Rule 10.11
Listing Rule 10.11 requires an entity to obtain the approval of shareholders to an issue of securities to a related party. Each of Mr Mather, Mr Levy, Mr Moller and Mr Mascolo, being a Director of the Company, is a related party. Accordingly, because the issue of the Director Options will result in the Company issuing securities to a related party, approval under Listing Rule 10.11 is required.
For the purposes of Listing Rule 10.13, the Company advises as follows:
-
The maximum number of Director Options to be issued to Mr Mather, Mr Levy, Mr Moller and Mr Mascolo is 3,500,000 Director Options.
-
The Director Options are intended to be granted as soon as possible following the meeting, but in any event, within one (1) month of the date of the meeting.
-
The Director Options are being issued for nil consideration.
-
No funds are being raised by the grant of the Director Options.
In accordance with Listing Rule 7.2, as approval is being sought under Listing Rule 10.11, approval is not required to be obtained under Listing Rule 7.1.
