2. RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT
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.
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.
This is the Company’s first annual general meeting.

6. RESOLUTION 6 – APPROVAL OF 10% PLACEMENT CAPACITY
6.1 General
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an Eligible Entity (as defined below) may seek shareholder approval by special resolution passed at an annual general meeting to have the capacity to issue up to that number of Equity Securities (as defined below) equal to 10% of its issued capital ( 10% Placement Capacity ) without using that company’s existing 15% annual placement capacity granted under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
An Eligible Entity is one that, as at the date of the relevant annual general meeting:
- (a) is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index; and
(b) has a maximum market capitalisation (excluding restricted securities and securities quoted on a deferred settlement basis) of $300,000,000.
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 $62,807,032.35 (based on the number of Shares on issue and the closing price of Shares on the ASX on 21 March 2018).
An Equity Security is a share, a unit in a trust, a right to a share or unit in a trust or option, an option over an issued or unissued security, a convertible security, or, any security that ASX decides to classify as an equity security.
9
4470-03/1907520_2
Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Capacity must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted Equity Securities.
As at the date of this Notice, the Company currently has one class of quoted Equity Securities on issue, being the Shares (ASX Code: ELS).
If Shareholders approve Resolution 6, the number of Equity Securities the Company may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2.
Resolution 6 is a special resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 6 for it to be passed.
6.2 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1A
Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to this Resolution 6:
(a) Minimum Price
The minimum price at which the Equity Securities may be issued is 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 ASX 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; or
-
(ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 ASX trading days of the date in Section 6.2(a)(i), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
(b) Date of Issue
The Equity Securities may be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity commencing on the date of the Meeting and expiring on the first to occur of the following:
-
(i) 12 months after the date of this Meeting; and
-
(ii) the date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under ASX Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of the Company’s activities) or 11.2 (disposal of the Company’s main undertaking) (after which date, an approval under Listing Rule 7.1A ceases to be valid),
( 10% Placement Capacity Period ).
(c) Risk of voting dilution
Any issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue.
If Resolution 6 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement
10
4470-03/1907520_2
Capacity, 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 ASX Listing Rule 7.1A(2), on the basis of the market price of Shares and the number of Equity Securities on issue as at 21 March 2018.
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 10% Placement Capacity.
| Number of Shares on Issue (Variable ‘A’ in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A2) |
Dilution | Dilution | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Issue Price (per Share) |

Notes:
-
(a) 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.
-
(b) The table above uses the following assumptions:
-
(i) There are currently 95,888,599 Shares on issue.
-
(ii) The issue price set out above is the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 21 March 2018.
-
(iii) The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity.
-
(iv) The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
-
(v) The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity consists only of Shares. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities.
11
4470-03/1907520_2
-
(vi) 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.
-
(vii) This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
-
(viii) 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%.
-
(ix) The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Capacity, 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.
(d) Purpose of Issue under 10% Placement Capacity
The Company may issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for the following purposes:
-

By ratifying this issue, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

10. RESOLUTIONS 10 TO 12 – ISSUE OF PERFORMANCE OPTIONS TO DIRECTORS
10.1 General
The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, to issue a total of 460,000 Options ( Related Party Options ) to Maj. Gen. (ret) Ami Shafran, David Furstenberg and Nir Gabay ( Related Parties ) or their nominees, in the proportions and on the terms and conditions set out below.
The Related Party Options are being issued pursuant to the Employee Share Option Plan ( ESOP ). The ESOP is intended to provide an incentive to retain, in the employment or service or directorship of the Company persons of training, experience and provide the ability to attract new employees, directors or consultants whose services are considered valuable.
15
4470-03/1907520_2
The Board first resolved to issue these Related Party Options, subject to relevant Shareholder approvals, on 23 October 2017. The Board supported the issue of the Related Party Options to the Related Parties at that time, even though the Share price was trading above the proposed exercise price, due to a number of factors, including the role that these Directors had played in the success of the Company, and increase in the Share price since the listing in June 2017, and the election of Messrs Furstenberg, Gabay and Shafran to forego their Directors’ fees owing to them until 30 June 2018, which will save the Company money in terms of reducing outgoings.
The Annual General Meeting is the first opportunity to approve the issue of the Related Party Options. At the date of the this Notice of Meeting, the Company’s Share price is trading around or below the exercise price of the Related Party Options. Notwithstanding this change in price, the non-interested Directors continue to recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolutions for the reasons set out in Section 10.4 (n) to (p) below.
The Board also notes that the Related Party Options are less than 1% of the issued capital of the Company. Shareholder dilution will not occur for two years, at which point half of the Related Party Options will vest and become exercisable. The remaining portion of the Related Party Option will vest over the following two years, subject to continuous service. Accordingly, it is the view of the Board that the exercise price of the Options does not have any material effect on the Company’s Shareholders.
Resolutions 10 to 12 seek Shareholder approval for the grant of the Related Party Options to the Related Parties (or their nominees).
10.2 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.
The grant of the Related Party Performance Options constitutes giving a financial benefit and David Furstenberg, Nir Gabay and Maj. Gen. (ret) Ami Shafran are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.
10.3 ASX Listing Rule 10.14
ASX Listing Rule 10.14 also requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities under an employee incentive scheme to a director of the entity, an associate of the director, or a person whose relationship with the entity, director or associate of the director is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained.
Shareholder approval is also sought for the purpose of section 208 of the Corporations Act for the issue of the Related Party Options to the Directors.
16
4470-03/1907520_2
10.4 Technical information required by Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.14
-
(a) the related parties are David Furstenberg, Nir Gabay and Maj. Gen. (ret) Ami Shafran and they are related parties by virtue of being Directors;
-
(b) the maximum number of Options to be issued to the Eligible Participants (or their nominees) is:
-
(i) 100,000 Options to Maj. Gen. (ret) Ami Shafran (or his nominee);
-
(ii) 250,000 Options to David Furstenberg (or his nominee); and
-
(iii) 110,000 Options to Nir Gabay (or his nominee);
-
(c) the amount payable upon exercise of each Option will be $0.60 ( Exercise Price );
-
(d) the Related Parties have waived their right to Directors’ fees until 30 June 2018, although Mr Gabay will still be entitled to his salary. As such, the Board believes that the Exercise Price, despite being lower than the prevailing Share price, is appropriate. The Related Party Options are being issued in order to compensate the Related Parties for the services that they have provided as Directors;
-
(e) the Related Party Options will be issued to the Related Parties no later than 12 months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) and it is anticipated the Related Party Options will be issued on one date;
-
(f) no loan is being issued to the Related Parties under the terms of the ESOP;
-
(g) the Related Party Options will be granted for nil cash consideration; accordingly, no funds will be raised;
-
(h) the terms and conditions of the Related Party Options are set out in Schedule 2;
-
(i) the value of the Related Party Options and the pricing methodology is set out in Schedule 3;
-
(j) the relevant interests of the Related Parties in securities of the Company as at the date of this Notice are set out below:
| Related Party | Shares | Options |
|---|---|---|
| Maj. Gen. (ret) Ami Shafran | Nil | Nil |
| David Furstenberg | Nil | Nil |
| Nir Gabay | 26,052,974 | 29,595,000 |
- (k) the remuneration and emoluments from the Company to Related Parties for the previous financial year and the proposed remuneration and emoluments for the upcoming financial year are as follows:
17
4470-03/1907520_2
| Related Party | 2017 | 2018 (Proposed) |
|---|---|---|
| Maj. Gen. (ret) Ami Shafran | $2,349 | $50,000 |
| David Furstenberg | $2,349 | $50,000 |
| Nir Gabay | $55,309 | $212,0001 |
Note:
-
As set out in the Company’s Prospectus, the Non-Executive Directors are entitled to Directors’ fees in the amount of $50,000 per annum each.
-
Nir Gaby’s proposed 2018 remuneration comprises of a $50,000 directors fee as well as a $162,000 fee that will be awarded to him under a services agreement.
(l) if the Related Party Options granted to the Related Parties are exercised, a total of 460,000 Shares would be issued. This will increase the number of Shares on issue from 95,888,599 to 96,348,599 (assuming that no other Options are exercised and no other Shares are issued with the effect that the shareholding of existing Shareholders would be diluted by 0.48%.
The market price for Shares during the term of the Related Party Options would normally determine whether or not the Related Party Options are exercised. If, at any time any of the Related Party Options are exercised and the Shares are trading on ASX at a price that is higher than the exercise price of the Related Party Options, there may be a perceived cost to the Company.
(m) the trading history of the Shares on ASX in the 12 months before the date of this Notice is set out below:
| Price | Date | |
|---|---|---|
| Highest | 177.5 cents | 27 November 2017 |
| Lowest | 13.5 cents | 25 and 26 July 2017 |
| Last | 65.5 cents | 21 March 2018 |
(n) the Board acknowledges the grant of Related Party Options to the Related Parties is contrary to Recommendation 8.3 of The Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations with 2010 Amendments (2[nd] Edition) as published by The ASX Corporate Governance Council. However, the Board considers the grant of Related Party Options to the Related Parties reasonable in the circumstances for the reason set out in Section 10.1 above;
(o) Maj. Gen. Ami Shafran declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 10 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that he is to be granted Related Party Options in the Company should Resolution 10 be passed. However, in respect of Resolutions 11 and 12, Maj. Gen. Ami Shafran recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the following reasons:
(i) the grant of Related Party Options to the Related Parties will align the interests of the Related Parties with those of Shareholders;
18
4470-03/1907520_2
-
(ii) the grant of the Related Party 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 the Related Parties;
-
(iii) the issue of the Related Party Options will save the Company’s cash through the waiver of the Directors’ fees payable to the Related Parties, and should all the Related Party Options be exercised, result in the Company receiving additional cash inflows of up to $216,000 from the exercise of those Related Party Options; and
-
(iv) it is not considered that there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company or benefits foregone by the Company in granting the Related Party Options upon the terms proposed;
-
(p) David Furstenberg declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 11 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that he is to be granted Related Party Options in the Company should Resolution 11 be passed. However, in respect of Resolutions 10 and 12, David Furstenberg recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the reasons set out in paragraph (n);
-
(q) Nir Gabay declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 12 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that he is to be granted Related Party Options in the Company should Resolution 12 be passed. However, in respect of Resolutions 10 and 11, Nir Gabay recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the reasons set out in paragraph (n);
-
(r) with the exception of the Related Parties, no other Director has a personal interest in the outcome of Resolutions 10 to 12;
-
(s) Howard Digby and Anton Uvarov recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolutions 10 to 12 for the reasons set out in paragraph (n);
-
(t) in forming their recommendations, each Director considered the experience of each other Related Party, the existing and proposed contribution of each Related Party to the Company, the waiving of fees until 30 June 2018 by the two non-executive Directors (namely Maj. Gen. (ret) Shafran and Mr Furstenberg), and the current market practices when determining the provision of the Loan upon the terms proposed; and
-
(u) the terms and conditions of the Related Party Options are set out in Schedule 2;
-
(v) the Board is not aware of any other information that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to allow them to make a decision whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass Resolutions 10 to 12; and
-
(w) all of the Directors, being Anton Uvarov, Howard Digby, Nir Gabay, David Furstenberg and Ami Shafran are entitled to participate in the ESOP, however none has previously received Options under the ESOP since the Company was listed in June 2017.
