Voting and other entitlements at the Annual General Meeting

A determination has been made by the Board of the Company under regulation 7.11.37 of the Corporations Regulations 2001 that Shares in the Company which are on issue at 7.00pm (AEDT) on 27 November 2023 will be taken to be held by the persons who held them at that time for the purposes of the Annual General Meeting (including determining voting entitlements at the Meeting).

Proxy voting by the Chairman

The Corporations Amendment (Improving Accountability on Director and Executive Remuneration) Act 2011 (Cth) imposes prohibitions on Key Management Personnel and their Closely Related Parties from voting their Shares (or voting undirected proxies) on, amongst other things, remuneration matters.

However, the Chairman of a Meeting may vote an undirected proxy (i.e. a proxy that does not specify how it is to be voted), provided the Shareholder who has lodged the proxy has given an express voting direction to the Chairman to exercise the undirected proxy, even if the Resolution is connected with the remuneration of a member of Key Management Personnel. If you complete a Proxy Form that authorises the Chairman to vote on your behalf as proxy, and you do not mark any of the boxes so as to give him directions about how your vote should be cast, then you will be taken to have expressly authorised the Chairman to exercise your proxy on Resolution 1 and Resolution 5. In accordance with this express authority provided by you, the Chairman will vote in favour of Resolution 1 and Resolution 5. If you wish to appoint the Chairman as your proxy, and you wish to direct him how to vote, please tick the appropriate boxes on the form.

  • (c) A proxy need not be a Shareholder of the Company.

  • (d) A proxy may be an individual or a body corporate. If a body corporate is appointed, the Proxy Form must indicate the full name of the body corporate and the full name or title of the individual representative of the body corporate for the Meeting.

The Company’s Chairman, Mr Jonathan Sweeney, will chair the Meeting and intends to vote all available undirected proxies in favour of each item of business. If you appoint as your proxy any Director of the Company, except the Chairman, or any other Key Management Personnel or any of their Closely Related Parties and you do not direct your proxy how to vote on Resolution 1 and Resolution 5, he will not vote your proxy on that item of business.

  • (e) A proxy form accompanies this Notice. If a Shareholder wishes to appoint more than 1 proxy, they may make a copy of the Proxy Form attached to this Notice. For the Proxy Form to be valid it must be received together with the power of attorney or other authority (if any) under which the form is signed, or a (notarially) certified copy

ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT (NON-BINDING RESOLUTION)

Resolution 1 Adoption of Remuneration Report (non-binding resolution)
Explanation Shareholders are asked to adopt the Company’s Remuneration Report. The Remuneration
Report is set out in the Company’s 2023 Annual Report and is available from the Company's

The Remuneration Report:

describes the policies behind, and the structure of, the remuneration arrangements of
the Company and the link between the remuneration of executives and the Company’s
performance;

sets out the remuneration arrangements in place for each Director and for certain
members of the senior management team; and

explains the differences between the basis for remunerating Non-Executive Directors
and senior executives, including the Chief Executive Officer.
The vote on this item is advisory only and does not bind the Directors. The Board will take
into account the discussion on this item and the outcome of the vote when considering the
future remuneration policies and practices of the Company.
Voting
Consequences
Under the Corporations Act, if at least 25% of the votes cast on a Remuneration Report
resolution are voted against the adoption of the Remuneration Report in two consecutive
annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders a resolution
proposing the calling of an extraordinary general meeting to consider the appointment of
Directors of the Company at the second annual general meeting (Spill Resolution).
If more than 50% of Shareholders vote in favour of the Spill Resolution, the Company must
convene the extraordinary general meeting (Spill Meeting)within 90 days of the second

the Company, would need to stand for re-election.
Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election as Directors of the
Company is approved by the Shareholders will be the Directors of the Company.
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 therefore not relevant for this Annual General Meeting.

cast by the Chairman and counted in favour of Resolution 1, subject to compliance with
the Corporations Act.

ASX Listing Rule
10.11
ASX Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in ASX Listing Rule 10.12
applies, the Company, as a listed company, must not issue equity securities to persons in a
position of influence without Shareholder approvals.
A person in a position of influence for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.11 includes:
a) a related party;
b) a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue of agreement,
a substantial (30%+) holder in the Company;
c) 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;
d) an associate of a person referred to in (a) to (c) above; and

EP&T Global Limited | Annual General Meeting 2023

9 | P a g e

==> picture [85 x 279] intentionally omitted <==

  • e) a person whose relationship with the Company or a person referred to in (a) to (d) above is such that, in the ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by Shareholders.

A “related party” for the purposes of the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules is widely defined and includes a director of a public company, a spouse of a director of a public company or an entity controlled by a director of a public company. The definition of “related party” also includes a person whom there is reasonable grounds to believe will become a “related party” of a public company.

Mr Balassis is a Director and therefore is a “related party” of the Company under ASX Listing Rule 10.11.1.

The proposed Options Issue does not fall within any of the exceptions in ASX Listing Rule 10.12, and therefore requires the approval of the Shareholders under ASX Listing Rule 10.11.

If the Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the proposed Options Issue. If the Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the proposed Options Issue. In that circumstance, issues may arise with the competitiveness of Mr Balassis’ total remuneration package. The Board would then need to consider alternative remuneration arrangements which are consistent with the Company’s remuneration principles, including providing an equivalent cash long-term incentive subject to the risk of forfeiture, performance conditions and performance period.

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

  • a) the giving of the financial benefit falls within one of the exceptions to the provisions; or

  • b) Shareholder approval is obtained prior to the giving of the financial benefit.

As explained above Mr Balassis is a “related party” of the Company. Also, the proposed Options Issue (which are equity securities, for the purposes of the Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act) constitute the giving of a financial benefit.

The Directors carefully considered the proposed issue of Options to Mr Balassis (with Mr Balassis abstaining) and formed the view that the giving of this financial benefit fell under the exception of “reasonable remuneration” as set out in section 210 of the Corporations Act.

Therefore, the proposed issue of Options requires Shareholder approval under and for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.11 only.

Specific In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.13, which contains requirements as to the contents of
information a notice sent to Shareholders for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.11, the following
required by ASX information is provided in relation to the Resolution:

PROVISIONAL TAKEOVER PROVISIONS

acquired under a proportional takeover bid unless approved by an ordinary resolution of
Shareholders. In accordance with the Corporations Act, these provisions are effective for a
maximum of three years, unless renewed. These provisions were last approved upon the
Company’s IPO in May 2021, so will shortly cease to be in effect and will be deemed to be
omitted from the Company’s Constitution if not renewed.

The Directors believe it is appropriate to continue with the Proportional Takeover Provisions in the Constitution. If renewed, the Proportional Takeover Provisions will operate for three years from the date of the Meeting and after that time will cease to apply unless renewed by a further special resolution of Shareholders. Accordingly, a special resolution is being put to Shareholders under section 648G of the Corporations Act to renew clauses 79 and 80 of the Constitution. A special resolution requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote.

If the Resolution is passed, then for 21 days after the Meeting, the holders of not less than 10% (by number) of the Company’s Shares have the right to apply to the Court to have the Resolution set aside. The Court may set aside the Resolution if the Court is satisfied in all the circumstances that it is appropriate to do so.

The Corporations Act requires the Company to include the following information in this Notice as the Notice contains a resolution seeking Shareholder approval to renew the Proportional Takeover Provisions.

Proportional Takeover Bid

A proportional takeover bid is a takeover bid that is sent to all shareholders in a class, offering to purchase a specified proportion only (not all) of each shareholder’s shares. If a shareholder accepts, the shareholder disposes of that specified portion and retains the balance.

Effects of the Proportional Takeover Provisions

The effects of the Proportional Takeover Provisions are that:

  • If a bidder makes a proportional takeover bid for any class of shares in the Company, the Directors must ensure that a meeting of Shareholders of that class is convened where a resolution to approve the proportional takeover bid is voted on. The vote is decided on a simple majority. The bidder and its associates are excluded from voting on that approving resolution;

  • The meeting and the vote on the approving resolution must take place more than 14 days before the last day of the bid period;

  • If the approving resolution is rejected before the deadline, the bid cannot proceed, and the offer will be taken to have been withdrawn. Any transfers giving effect to takeover contracts for the bid will not be registered and all offers under the takeover bid are taken to be withdrawn and all takeover contracts must be rescinded;

  • If the approving resolution is not voted on, the bid will be taken to have been approved; and

  • If the approving resolution is passed (or taken to have been approved), the transfers must be registered (subject to other provisions of the Corporations Act and the Constitution).

The Proportional Takeover Provisions do not apply to full takeover bids.

Reasons for the Proportional Takeover Provisions

A proportional takeover bid may result in control of the Company changing without Shareholders having an opportunity to dispose of all their Shares. That is, Shareholders are exposed to the risk of being left as minority Shareholders in the Company by not being able to sell their entire shareholding into a proportional takeover offer. Also, by making a proportional bid, a bidder could obtain practical control of the Company by acquiring less than a majority interest. This might allow a bidder to acquire control without payment of an adequate control premium.

The Directors believe that the Proportional Takeover Provisions are desirable to give Shareholders protection from the risks inherent in proportional takeover bids. The existing provisions proposed to be renewed allow Shareholders to decide if a proportional takeover

EP&T Global Limited | Annual General Meeting 2023

12 | P a g e

==> picture [95 x 721] intentionally omitted <==

bid is acceptable in principle and may assist in ensuring that any proportional takeover bid is appropriately priced.

To assess the merits of the Proportional Takeover Provisions, Shareholders should make a judgment as to what events are likely to occur in relation to the Company during the threeyear life of the provisions if renewed with Shareholder approval.

As at the date of this Notice, the Directors of the Company are not aware of a proposal by a person to acquire, or to increase the extent of, a substantial interest in the Company. For these reasons, the Board considers it appropriate to seek to renew the Proportional Takeover Provisions.

Potential Advantages and Disadvantages of the Proportional Takeover Provisions

The Corporations Act requires this Notice to discuss the potential advantages and disadvantages for Directors and Shareholders of the Proportional Takeover Provisions proposed to be renewed. The provisions were first adopted upon the Company’s IPO in May 2021.

The Directors consider that the Proportional Takeover Provisions have no potential advantages or disadvantages for any of them, and that they would remain free to make a recommendation on whether or not to accept an offer under a proportional takeover bid.

The Directors note that it could be argued that the Proportional Takeover Provisions are an advantage to them as a takeover defence mechanism that could be exploited to entrench the incumbent Board of Directors. However, the Directors believe that argument ignores the basic objective of the Proportional Takeover Provisions, which is to empower Shareholders not the Directors.

The advantages that Shareholders may have experienced since the Proportional Takeover Provisions were adopted include:

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

  • The provisions may assist Shareholders and protect them from being locked in as a minority;

  • The provisions increase the bargaining power of Shareholders and may assist in ensuring that any proportional takeover bid is adequately priced; and

  • Each individual Shareholder may better assess the likely outcome of the proportional takeover bid by knowing the view of the majority of Shareholders and assist in deciding whether to accept or reject an offer under a proportional takeover bid.

The disadvantages that Shareholders may have experienced since the Proportional Takeover Provisions were adopted include:

  • Proportional takeover bids for Shares in the Company may be discouraged;

  • Shareholders may lose an opportunity to sell some of their Shares at a premium;

  • Individual Shareholders may consider that the proportional takeover provisions would restrict their ability to deal with their Shares as they see fit; and

  • The likelihood of a proportional takeover bid succeeding may be reduced.

Previous Operation of Clauses 79 and 80

The Corporations Act also requires this Notice to retrospectively address the advantages and disadvantages for Directors and Shareholders of the Proportional Takeover Provisions which are proposed to be renewed.

During the time that the Proportional Takeover Provisions have been in effect there have been no proportional takeover bids for the Company. The Directors are also not aware of

EP&T Global Limited | Annual General Meeting 2023

13 | P a g e

any potential proportional takeover bid that was discouraged by the proportional takeover provisions. The Directors are therefore unable to point to any more specific advantages or disadvantages evident from the operation of the current provisions during the period of their operation. Knowledge of Any Acquisition Proposals Apart from the general considerations above, as at the date of this Notice, no Director is aware of a proposal by any person to acquire, or to increase the extent of, a substantial interest in the Company. Those Directors, who are also Shareholders, have the same interest in the Resolution as all Shareholders. Board The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution. Recommendation Chairman’s The Chairman intends to vote all available proxies in favour of this Resolution. available proxies

Appointment of a Second Proxy

You are entitled to appoint up to two proxies to attend the meeting and vote. If you wish to appoint a second proxy, an additional Proxy Form may be obtained by contacting the company’s securities registry or you may copy this form.
