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 26 November 2024 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. In accordance with this express authority provided by you, the Chairman will vote in favour of Resolution 1. 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.

The Company’s Chairman, Mr Paul Oneile, 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, he will not vote your proxy on that item of business.

Corporate Representative

Any corporate Shareholder who has appointed a person to act as its corporate representative at the Meeting should provide that person with a certificate or letter executed in accordance with the Corporations Act authorising him or her to act as that company’s representative. The authority can be mailed or faxed to the Company at least 24 hours before the Meeting. Alternatively, this document can be lodged at the registration desk on the day of the Meeting.

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

TO NOTICE OF 2024 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

FINANCIAL AND RELATED REPORTS

Item 1 Financial and related reports
Explanation Section 317 of the Corporations Act requires the Company’s financial report, directors’
report and auditor’s report for the financial year ended 30 June 2024 to be laid before the
Company’s 2024 Annual General Meeting. There is no requirement for a formal resolution
on this item.
The financial report contains the financial statements of the consolidated entity consisting
of EP&T Global Limited and its controlled entities.
As permitted by the Corporations Act, a printed copy of the Company’s 2024 Annual Report
has been sent only to those Shareholders who have elected to receive a printed copy. A
copy of the 2024 Annual Report is available from the Company's website
(www.eptglobal.com/investor-centre).
The Chairman will allow a reasonable opportunity at the Meeting for Shareholders to ask
questions. Shareholders will also be given a reasonable opportunity at the Meeting to ask
the Company’s auditor, Grant Thornton Australia, questions about its audit report, the
conduct of its audit of the Company’s financial report for the year ended 30 June 2024, the
preparation and content of its audit report, the accounting policies adopted by the
Company in its preparation of the financial statements and the independence of Grant
Thornton Australia in relation to the conduct of the audit.

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 2024 Annual Report and is available from the Company's
website (www.eptglobal.com/investor-centre).
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
annual general meeting, at which all of the Directors (other than a managing director) of
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.
Shareholders should be aware that any undirected proxies given to the Chairman will be
cast by the Chairman and counted in favour of Resolution 1, subject to compliance with
the Corporations Act.
Voting Exclusion A voting exclusion statement applies to this Resolution, as set out in the Notice.
Board
Recommendation
As the Resolution relates to matters including the remuneration of the Directors, the
Board, as a matter of corporate governance and in accordance with the spirit of section
250R(4) Corporations Act, makes no recommendation regarding this Resolution.

proxies
The Chairman intends to vote all available proxies in favour of this Resolution.

APPROVAL OF THE GRANT OF A MAXIMUM OF 21,400,000 EQUITY SECURITES UNDER THE EMPLOYEE INCENTIVE PLAN

Resolution 5 Approval of the grant of a maximum of 21,400,000 equity securities under the Employee
Incentive Plan
Explanation The purpose of the Employee Incentive Plan (Plan) is to provide eligible participants with an
incentive to remain with the Company and to improve the longer-term performance of the
Company and its returns to Shareholders. This Plan enables the Company to retain and attract
skilled and experienced senior management and provide them with the motivation to make the
Company more successful.
The Company has at present the right to issue 20.0 million securities under its Plan. The
number of equity securities that have been issued to employees under the Plan at the time of
the AGM is 13.6 million options, which vest over three years with the following issue prices
(relative to the share price on 10 October 2024 of $0.023):
Year 1 $0.06
Year 2 $0.15

==> picture [85 x 716] intentionally omitted <==

Year 3 $0.25

The current issued options (13.6 million) under the Plan and their relevant exercise price are as follows:

$0.06

Total 4,866,667 4,366,667 4,366,667 13,600,000

Once securities have been issued under the Plan, they cannot be cancelled. In addition, none of the above securities have been exercised.

The Company is required to obtain shareholder approval for the issue of securities under the Plan so that any issue of securities under that Plan within the next three years falls within the ASX Listing Rule exception and will not reduce the Company’s available placement capacity.

This resolution will increase the total securities that may be issued under the Plan by 15,000,000 equity securities. Accordingly, subject to the approval of shareholders at the 2024 AGM, the maximum number of securities that may be issued under the Plan over the threeyear period from the 2024 AGM is 21,400,000 Equity Securities.

This Resolution effectively seeks to ‘refresh’ the Plan, which was last approved by shareholders at the AGM in 2022 (‘2022 AGM’). At the 2022 AGM, shareholders approved an additional 11.5 million securities to be added to the total number of equity securities which could be issued under the Plan, meaning that up to a maximum of 20,000,000 equity securities could be issued under the Plan over the period of three-year period from the approval at the 2022 AGM.

Taking into account the 13,600,000 equity securities already issued under the Plan, approval of this Resolution will increase the total number of securities that can be issued under the Plan from 20,000,000 to 35,000,000.

The total number of Fully Paid Ordinary (‘FPO’) securities on issue is 602,642,947. The approval of this Resolution will increase the total number of securities that can be issued under the Plan from 20,000,0000 (current) to 35,000,000, being 5.8% of FPO securities on issue if all securities are issued under the Plan.

The table below summarises the resolution:

A copy of the Rules of the Plan was announced to the ASX on 11 May 2021 and a summary of the terms of the Rules is attached in Annexure A.

Why is approval
being sought for
this Resolution?
Shareholder approval is sought for the Plan for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.2 exception
13, section 260C(4) of the Corporations Act and for all other purposes.
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or
agree to issue more Equity Securities during any 12-month period than that amount which
represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement
of that 12-month period without shareholder approval.
ASX Listing Rule 7.2 exception 13 provides that ASX Listing Rule 7.1 does not apply to issues of
securities under an employee incentive scheme if, within three years before the date on which
the securities are issued, shareholders approve the issue of securities under the scheme as an
exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
However, the exception does not apply to Directors and their associates, who are deemed
related parties of the Company, and issues to such persons will require separate approval under
Listing Rule 10.14.
If the Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to issue securities under the Plan to eligible
participants for a three-year period post the date of approval without affecting the Company’s
ability to separately issue up to 15% of its total ordinary securities in any 12-month period
(without having to obtain a further Shareholder approval). The Directors believe that this will
provide the Company with the flexibility necessary to raise additional capital as and when
appropriate.
If the Resolution is not passed, the Company will still be able to issue securities under the Plan
to eligible participants however the issue securities will reduce the Company’s 15% placement
capacity.
For the purposes of Listing Rule 7.2 exception 13:
a) A summary of the Rules of the Plan are set out in Annexure A;
b) 13,600,000 securities have been issued under the Plan ;and
c) it is proposed that up to a maximum of 21,400,000 additional securities may be
issued under the Plan over the next three years, subject to its approval at this Annual
General Meeting.
Board
Recommendation
As the Directors are excluded from voting upon this Resolution pursuant to the ASX Listing
Rules, the Directors will not make a recommendation to shareholders with respect to voting in
relation to this Resolution.
Chairman’s
available proxies
The Chairman of the Meeting intends to vote all available proxies in favour of this Resolution.

TOPIC SUMMARY
Administration The Employee Incentive Plan will be administered by the Board.
Eligibility Participation in the Plan is by invitation (Invitation). Eligible participants are full-time
or part-time employees of any EP&T group company (including Executive Directors),
or any other person the Board deems eligible in its absolute discretion.
Award The Employee Incentive Plan provides flexibility for the Board to grant one or more of
the following types of award:
-
options to acquire shares (Incentive Options);
-
rights to acquire shares (Performance Right);
-
shares allocated under the Plan (Restricted Share); or
-
a right to a cash amount determined in reference to the value of shares
(Incentive Right), (together Awards). Any shares issued under the Employee
Incentive Plan will rank equally with other Shares issued by EP&T, except for
any rights attaching to shares by reference to a record date prior to the date
of their issue.
Maximum number
of Awards that may
be issued under the
Employee Incentive
Plan
Subject to approval at the 2024 AGM, a maximum of 21,400,000 additional equity
securities can be issued.
Conditions The Board must set out the terms and conditions of the Award in the Invitation. The
Invitation must include:
-
the type(s) and number of Award(s) being offered or the method by which
the number will be calculated;
-
the amount payable for the grant of an Award or the method by which the
amount payable is calculated; and
-
any vesting conditions, or other condition including any vesting periods.
An invitation for an Incentive Option or Performance Right must include:
-
requirements for exercising the Incentive Option (including any exercise
price or exercise period);
-
whether exercising the Incentive Option or vesting of the Performance Right
will only be satisfied by an allocation of shares to the participant; and
-
the date or circumstances in which the Incentive Option or Performance
Right may lapse. An invitation for an Incentive Right must include:
-
how the amount of the Incentive Right is calculated; and
-
when the Incentive right will be paid.
Rights to participate
in new issues of
securities
Incentive Options and Performance Rights do not confer on participants a right to
participate in the new issue of securities to existing shareholders unless:
-
the Incentive Option is entitled to be exercised, or the Performance Right
has vested;
-
Shares have been allocated under the Employee Incentive Plan in respect of
that Incentive Option or Performance Right before the determination of
entitlements to new securities; or
-
the participant participates as a holder of allocated Shares.
Issue price Awards are to be issued at no cost to a participant unless the Invitation specifies
otherwise, or in respect of any allocation of Restricted Shares which may be deducted
from that employee’s remuneration (provided that arrangement is noted in the

TO VOTE BY COMPLETING THE PROXY FORM

STEP 1 APPOINTMENT OF PROXY

Indicate who you want to appoint as your Proxy.

If you wish to appoint the Chair of the Meeting as your proxy, mark the box. If you wish to appoint someone other than the Chair of the Meeting as your proxy please write the full name of that individual or body corporate. If you leave this section blank, or your named proxy does not attend the meeting, the Chair of the Meeting will be your proxy. A proxy need not be a securityholder of the company. Do not write the name of the issuer company or the registered securityholder in the space.

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.

STEP 3 SIGN THE FORM

The form must be signed as follows:

Individual: This form is to be signed by the securityholder.

Joint Holding : where the holding is in more than one name, all the securityholders should sign.

Power of Attorney: to sign under a Power of Attorney, you must have already lodged it with the registry. Alternatively, attach a certified photocopy of the Power of Attorney to this form when you return it.

Companies: this form must be signed by a Director jointly with either another Director or a Company Secretary. Where the company has a Sole Director who is also the Sole Company Secretary, this form should be signed by that person. Please indicate the office held by signing in the appropriate place.

STEP 4 LODGEMENT

To appoint a second proxy you must: (a) complete two Proxy Forms. On each Proxy Form state the percentage of your voting rights or the number of securities applicable to that form. If the appointments do not specify the percentage or number of votes that each proxy may exercise, each proxy may exercise half your votes. Fractions of votes will be disregarded.

(b) return both forms together in the same envelope.

STEP 2 VOTING DIRECTIONS TO YOUR PROXY

To direct your proxy how to vote, mark one of the boxes opposite each item of business. All your securities will be voted in accordance with such a direction unless you indicate only a portion of securities are to be voted on any item by inserting the percentage or number that you wish to vote in the appropriate box or boxes. If you do not mark any of the boxes on a given item, your proxy may vote as he or she chooses. If you mark more than one box on an item for all your securities your vote on that item will be invalid.

Proxy which is a Body Corporate

Where a body corporate is appointed as your proxy, the representative of that body corporate attending the meeting must have provided an “Appointment of Corporate Representative” prior to admission. An Appointment of Corporate Representative form can be obtained from the company’s securities registry.

Proxy forms (and any Power of Attorney under which it is signed) must be received no later than 48 hours before the commencement of the meeting, therefore by 4:00pm on Tuesday, 26 November 2024. Any Proxy Form received after that time will not be valid for the scheduled meeting.
