How to vote

Shareholders can vote by either:

  • attending the Meeting and voting in person or by attorney or, in the case of corporate Shareholders, by appointing a corporate representative to attend and vote; or

  • appointing a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf using the Proxy Form accompanying this Notice and by submitting their Proxy Form online, by mobile, by post or by facsimile.

Voting in person or by attorney

Shareholders, or their attorneys, who plan to attend the Meeting are asked to arrive at the venue 15 minutes prior to the time designated for the Meeting, if possible, so that their holding may be checked against the Company's share register and their attendance recorded. A certified copy of the Power of Attorney, or the original Power of Attorney, must be received by the Company in the same manner, and by the same time as outlined for proxy forms below.

Voting by a corporation

A Shareholder that is a corporation may appoint an individual to act as its representative and vote in person at the Meeting. The appointment must comply with the requirements of section 250D of the Corporations Act. Written proof of the representative’s appointment (including any authority under which it is signed) must be lodged with, or presented to the Company before the Meeting.

Voting by proxy

  • A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote is entitled to appoint not more than two proxies. Each proxy will have the right to vote on a poll and also to speak at the Meeting.

  • The appointment of the proxy may specify the proportion or the number of votes that the proxy may exercise. Where more than one proxy is appointed and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the Shareholder's votes each proxy may exercise, the votes will be divided equally among the proxies (i.e. where there are two proxies, each proxy may exercise half of the votes).

  • A proxy need not be a Shareholder. The proxy can be either an individual or a body corporate.

  • If a proxy is not directed how to vote on an item of business, the proxy may generally vote, or abstain from voting, as they think fit. However, where a Restricted Voter is appointed as a proxy, the proxy may only vote on Resolution 1 if the proxy is the Chairman of the Meeting and the appointment expressly authorises the Chairman to exercise the proxy even if the Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the Key Management Personnel.

item of business, they are directed not to vote on the Shareholder's behalf on the poll and the Shares that are the subject of the proxy appointment will not be counted in calculating the required majority.

  • A Shareholder who returns their Proxy Form with a direction how to vote, but does not nominate the identity of their proxy, will be taken to have appointed the Chairman of the Meeting as their proxy to vote on their behalf. If a Proxy Form is returned with a direction how to vote, but the nominated proxy (who is not the Chairman of the Meeting) does not attend the Meeting or does not vote on the relevant Resolution(s), the Chairman of the Meeting will act in place of the nominated proxy and vote in accordance with any instructions.

  •  Proxy appointments in favour of the Chairman of the Meeting, the secretary or any Director that do not contain a direction how to vote will be used, where possible, to support each of the Resolutions proposed in this Notice, provided they are entitled to cast votes as a proxy under the voting exclusion rules which apply to some of the proposed Resolutions. These rules are explained in this Notice.

  • Proxies must be received by 10.00am (WST) on 11 November 2019 . Proxies received after this time will be invalid.

Explanatory Memorandum

This Explanatory Memorandum is intended to provide Shareholders with sufficient information to assess the merits of the Resolutions contained in the accompanying Notice of Annual General Meeting of the Company.

Certain abbreviations and other defined terms are used throughout this Explanatory Memorandum. Defined terms are generally identifiable by the use of an upper case first letter. Details of the definitions and abbreviations are set out in the Glossary to the Explanatory Memorandum.

Financial Reports

The Board is required to lay before the Meeting the consolidated annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2019, together with the Directors' report (including the Remuneration Report) and the Auditor's Report on the financial report. No resolution is required to be moved in respect of this item.

Shareholders will be given a reasonable opportunity at the Meeting to ask questions, and to make comments on the reports and on the management of the Company.

The Chairman will also give Shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask the Auditor or the Auditor’s representative questions relevant to: the conduct of the audit; the preparation and content of the independent audit report; the accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of the financial statements; and the independence of the Auditor in relation to the conduct of the audit.

The Chairman will also allow a reasonable opportunity for the Auditor or their representative to answer any written questions submitted to the Auditor under section 250PA of the Corporations Act.

A copy of the Company’s 2019 Annual Report is available on the ASX website or at https://ookami.com.au/announcements/.

Resolution 1 – Adoption of Remuneration Report

Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act requires the Company to put to its Shareholders a resolution that the Remuneration Report as set out in the Company's 2019 Annual Report be adopted. The Remuneration Report explains the Board policies in relation to the nature and level of remuneration paid to Directors, sets out remuneration details for each Director and any service agreements and sets out the details of any equity-based compensation.

Shareholders are entitled to vote on the question as to whether the Remuneration Report is to be adopted. However, the vote on Resolution 1 is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. The Chairman will give Shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report at the Meeting.

Under the Corporations Act, if at least 25% of the votes cast are against adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put a resolution to the second annual general meeting ( Spill Resolution ), to approve calling a general meeting ( Spill Meeting ). If more than 50% of Shareholders vote in favour of the Spill Resolution, the Company must then convene a Spill Meeting within 90 days of the second annual general meeting. All of the Directors who were in office when the applicable Directors’ Report was approved, other than any Managing Director, will need to stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting if they wish to continue as Directors.

The Remuneration Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2018 did not receive a vote of more than 25% against its adoption at the Company’s 2018 annual general meeting held on 7 November 2018. Accordingly, if at least 25% of the votes cast on Resolution 1 are against adoption of the Remuneration Report it will not result in the Company putting a Spill Resolution to Shareholders.

Resolution 2 – Re-election of Mr Faldi Ismail as a Director

Pursuant to Clause 14.2 of the Company's Constitution, Faldi Ismail, being a Director and the Company's NonExecutive Chairman, retires by way of rotation and, being eligible, offers himself for re-election as a Director.

Faldi is an experienced corporate advisor who specialises in the restructure and recapitalisation of a wide range of ASX-listed companies. He has many years of investment banking experience and has advised on numerous cross border transactions including capital raisings, structuring of acquisitions and joint ventures overseas. Mr Ismail holds a Bachelor of Business (Accounting & Finance).

Mr Ismail is currently a director of Asiamet Resources Limited, listed in London on the AIM exchange.

Mr Ismail was appointed to the Board as a Director on 5 June 2015. The Board considers that Mr Ismail, if re-elected, will continue to be classified as a non-independent director of Company. Mr Ismail is not considered independent as he is a substantial shareholder of the Company and is associated with companies that provide various corporate, capital raising and accounting related services to the Company at commercial rates.

The members of the Board (in the absence of Mr Ismail) support the re-election of Mr Ismail as a director of the Company.

Resolution 3 – Ratification of issue of Shares to Acuity Capital

Background

As announced to ASX on 21 September 2018, the Company entered into a Controlled Placement Agreement ( CPA ) with Acuity Capital Investment Management Pty Ltd as trustee for the Acuity Capital Holdings Trust. The CPA provides the Company with up to $2 million of standby equity capital over approximately a 28 month period. Under the CPA, the Company controls all aspects of the placement process, including the quantum of Shares issued, the issue price and the timing of each placement tranche (if any).

As announced to ASX on 28 February 2019, pursuant to the CPA, the Company issued 13,000,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.0231 per Share to Acuity Capital using the Company's Listing Rule 7.1 capacity ( Placement ). The Placement raised $300,000 inclusive of costs.

Listing Rule 7.4 and 7.5

Listing Rule 7.4 permits the ratification of previous issues of securities made without prior Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1, provided the issue did not breach the 15% threshold set by Listing Rule 7.1. The effect of the ratification is to restore the Company’s maximum discretionary power to issue further securities up to 15% of the issued capital of the Company without requiring Shareholder approval.

Resolution 3 seeks ratification under Listing Rule 7.4 of the issue of the Shares under the Placement in order to restore the ability of the Company to issue further securities within the 15% limit during the next 12 months.

The following information in relation to Resolution 3 is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.5:

The number of securities issued 13,000,000 Shares were issued under the Company’s 7.1 placement capacity.

acquisitions.
A voting exclusion statement A voting exclusion is included in the Notice in relation to Resolution 3.

Resolution 4 – Amendment to Constitution

Background

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval to amend the Company's Constitution.

ASX proposes to make changes to its escrow regime with effect from 1 December 2019. Under proposed amended Listing Rule 15.12, for so long as a listed entity has any restricted securities on issue, its constitution must provide for each of the following:

  • a holder of restricted securities must not dispose of, or agree or offer to dispose of, the securities during the escrow period applicable to those securities except as permitted by the Listing Rules or ASX;

  • if the securities are in the same class as quoted securities, the holder will be taken to have agreed in writing that the restricted securities are to be kept on the entity’s issuer sponsored subregister and are to have a holding lock applied for the duration of the escrow period applicable to those securities;

  • the entity will refuse to acknowledge any disposal (including, without limitation, to register any transfer) of restricted securities during the escrow period applicable to those securities except as permitted by the Listing Rules or ASX;

  • a holder of restricted securities will not be entitled to participate in any return of capital on those securities during the escrow period applicable to those securities except as permitted by the Listing Rules or ASX; and

  • if a holder of restricted securities breaches a restriction deed or a provision of the entity’s constitution restricting a disposal of those securities, the holder will not be entitled to any dividend or distribution, or to exercise any voting rights, in respect of those securities for so long as the breach continues.

These requirements will provide the constitutional underpinning for ASX’s modified escrow regime. As noted above, the changes to Listing Rule 15.12 are proposed take effect from 1 December 2019 and will apply to the entities admitted to the official list, or that issue restricted securities, on or after that date. The changes will also apply to any listed entity that on or after 1 December 2019:

  • undertakes a transaction requiring re-compliance with Chapters 1 and 2 of the Listing Rules under Listing Rule 11.1.3 involving the issue of restricted securities; and

  • issues restricted securities to a party referred to in Listing Rule 10.1 for the acquisition of a substantial classified asset from that party.

As the Company has communicated via various ASX releases, and most recently on 20 September 2019, the Company will remain suspended until it is able to either successfully complete a transaction requiring re-compliance with Chapters 1 and 2 of the Listing Rules or it terminates the proposed acquisition of a well-established Australian based fintech business and ASX determines that it is appropriate to reinstate the Company's securities to trading.

Given that the Company may undertake a transaction requiring re-compliance with Chapters 1 and 2 of the Listing Rules under Listing Rule 11.1.3 involving the issue of restricted securities after 1 December 2019, the Board considers it appropriate to amend the Company's Constitution to comply with the proposed changes to Listing Rule 15.12.

Under section 136 of the Corporations Act, Shareholders must pass a special resolution to amend the Constitution. Accordingly, Resolution 4 is a special resolution, requiring approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders entitled to vote on the resolution in order to be passed.

The proposed amendments to clause 2.12 of the Constitution are set out in Annexure A to this Explanatory Memorandum. The Constitution also contains a number of cross-referencing errors commencing at clause 12 of the Constitution. Approval is also sought to correct these cross-referencing errors via Resolution 4.

Copies of the current Constitution and amended Constitution marked-up to show the proposed changes are available for perusal by Shareholders at the Company's registered office or via the Company's website at www.ookami.com.au

Recommendation

The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the amendments to the Constitution. If Resolution 4 is approved, the Constitution will be amended from the close of the Meeting.

Resolution 5 – Renewal of proportional takeover approval provisions

Background

A proportional takeover bid is an off-market takeover bid for a specified proportion of the securities in the bid class, rather than a bid for the security holders entire holding.

Clause 36 of the Company’s Constitution contains provisions dealing with proportional takeover bids for the Company’s securities. The provisions are designed to assist security holders receive proper value for their securities if a proportional takeover bid is made for the Company.

Under the Corporations Act, these provisions must be renewed every three years or they will cease to have effect. The current provisions ceased to have effect on 24 December 2018. Accordingly, the provisions need to be renewed if they are to apply to any future proportional takeover bids made for the Company. If the provisions are renewed by Shareholders at this Meeting, they will operate for three years from the date Resolution 5 is passed.

Resolution 5 seeks Shareholder approval to renew clause 36 of the Company’s Constitution for a three-year period in accordance with section 648G of the Corporations Act and the Constitution.

Shareholders are provided with the following information in relation to Resolution 5, in compliance with section 648G(5) of the Corporations Act:

Effect of the proportional takeover
provisions in the Constitution that it is
proposed be renewed
Clause 36 in the Company’s Constitution states that if a proportional
takeover bid is made for the Company (i.e. a bid for less than 100% of
each holder’s holding in the bid class of securities), the Directors must
submit to holders of the bid class securities a resolution to approve the
proportional bid (Prescribed Resolution). The Prescribed Resolution
must be voted on at least 14 days before the last day of the bid period
closes (Resolution Deadline).
The Prescribed Resolution is taken to have been passed if the proportion
that the number of votes in favour of the resolution bears to the total
number of votes on the resolution is greater than 50%, and otherwise is
taken to have been rejected. Each person (other than the bidder and its
associates) who, as at the end of the day on which the first offer under
the bid was made, held bid class securities is entitled to vote.
If the Prescribed Resolution is not passed, transfers which would
have resulted from the acceptance of a bid will not be registered and the
bid will be taken to have been withdrawn. If the bid is approved (or taken
to have been approved), the transfers must be registered if they comply
with the Corporations Act and the Company’s Constitution.
The Directors will breach the Corporations Act if they fail to ensure the
Prescribed Resolution is voted on. However, the bid will be taken to have
been approved if the Prescribed Resolution is not voted on by the
Resolution Deadline.
The provisions of clause 36 of the Company’s Constitution do not apply
to full takeover bids and will only apply for three years after approval.
The provisions can be further renewed by special resolution.

Ookami Limited – Notice of Annual General Meeting 2019

Reasons for renewing the proportional
takeover provisions
The Directors consider it appropriate for Shareholders to decide whether
they wish to have proportional takeover approval provisions in the
Constitution. If the proportional takeover approval provisions in the
Constitution are not renewed, a proportional takeover bid may enable
control of the Company to pass without Shareholders having the
opportunity to sell all their shares to the bidder. Shareholders may
therefore be exposed to the risk of being left as a minority in the
Company. If the Shareholders considered that control of the Company
was likely to pass under any takeover bid, they could be placed under
pressure to accept the offer even if they do not want control of the
Company to pass to the bidder. Shareholders may also be exposed to
the risk of the bidder being able to acquire control of the Company
without payment of an adequate control premium for their shares.
Resolution 5 seeks renewal of the proportional takeover provisions as
the provisions decrease these risks because they allow Shareholders to
decide whether a proportional takeover bid is acceptable and should be
permitted to proceed.
As noted above, the bidder and its associates would not be permitted to
vote on the Prescribed Resolution and thereby influence the outcome.
No
knowledge
of
any
acquisition
proposals
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.
Review
of
proportional
takeover
provisions
While proportional takeover approval provisions have previously been in
force under the Company’s Constitution, there have been no full or
proportional takeover bids for the Company. Therefore, there is no
example against which to review the advantages or disadvantages of the
provisions for the Directors and the Shareholders.
Potential
advantages
and
disadvantages of the provisions for
Directors
If the Directors consider that a proportional takeover bid should be
opposed, they will be assisted in preventing the bidder from securing
control of the Company if the bidder needs a majority of the votes cast by
the independent Shareholders before it can succeed.
On the other hand, if a proportional takeover bid is commenced, the
Directors must seek the Shareholders’ views. They must do so even
though the Directors believe that the bid should be accepted.
In the absence of the proportional takeover approval provisions, it is only
the Directors who express, on behalf of the Company, any formal view
on the adequacy or otherwise of a proportional takeover bid. Under the
approval mechanism in clause 36 of the Company’s Constitution, the
most effective view on a proportional takeover bid will become the view
expressed by the vote of the Shareholders themselves.
Potential
advantages
and
disadvantages of the provisions for
Shareholders
The potentialadvantagesof the proportional takeover approval
provisions for Shareholders include:

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

The provisions may help shareholders avoid being locked in as
a minority.

The existence of the provisions in the Constitution may make a
full bid more probable than a proportional bid.

The provisions may increase the bargaining power of the
Shareholders, encouraginga bidder to set its offerprice and

Ookami Limited – Notice of Annual General Meeting 2019

conditions at a level that will be attractive to the Shareholders who vote. • Knowing the view of the majority of Shareholders may help each individual Shareholder assess the likely outcome of the proportional takeover bid and to decide whether to accept or reject the offer. The potential disadvantages of the proportional takeover approval provisions for Shareholders include:

  • Potential bidders may be discouraged from making a proportional takeover bid, reducing the opportunity for Shareholders to sell a portion of their holding.

  • • It is possible (though in the opinion of the Board, unlikely) that the existence of the provisions might have an adverse effect on the market value of the Company’s shares by making a proportional takeover bid less likely, and consequently reducing any takeover speculation element in the share price.

  • • An increased likelihood that a proportional takeover bid would not be successful.

  • • An individual Shareholder who wishes to accept a proportional takeover bid will be unable to sell to the bidder unless a majority of Shareholders favour the proportional takeover bid.

  • • The provisions may be considered by some Shareholders as an unreasonable restriction on their ability to freely deal with their shares.

The Board considers that the potential advantages for Shareholders of the proportional takeover approval provisions outweigh the potential disadvantages. In particular, Shareholders as a whole are able to decide whether or not a proportional takeover bid is successful.

Recommendation

The reasons why the Board has proposed that the provisions in the Constitution that provide for Shareholder approval on proportional takeover bids should be renewed are set out above as the potential advantages of the provisions. The Directors consider that the advantages associated with the proportional takeover provisions outweigh the disadvantages. The Directors consider that Shareholders should have the power to decide whether or not a proportional takeover bid is successful.

Furthermore, the Directors believe that the approval procedure set out in clause 36 of the Constitution is the best procedure available to Shareholders to ensure that they are not forced to accept a proportional takeover bid, even though they do not wish the bidder to obtain control of the Company.

The Board therefore considers Resolution 5, renewing clause 36 of the Constitution to be in the interests of Shareholders, and unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5.

Resolution 6 – Approval of Additional 10% Placement Capacity

Background

In addition to a company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1, an “eligible entity” which has obtained Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A via a special resolution may issue, or agree to issue, Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued share capital over a 12-month period after the annual general meeting at which the approval is sought ( Additional 10% Placement Capacity ).

An entity will be an “eligible entity” able to seek approval under Listing Rule 7.1A if:

  • (a) the entity has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less; and

Ookami Limited – Notice of Annual General Meeting 2019

6

(b) the entity is not included in the S&P ASX 300 Index.

The Company has a market capitalisation of approximately $7.5 million as at 27 September 2019 and is an eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A.

Resolution 6 seeks Shareholders’ approval to issue additional Equity Securities under the Additional 10% Placement Capacity. The approval of the Additional 10% Placement Capacity provides greater flexibility for the Board to issue, or agree to issue, Shares in the 12-month period following the Meeting. It is anticipated that funds raised by the issue of Equity Securities under the Additional 10% Placement Capacity would be applied towards working capital, development of the Company's existing assets, to acquire new assets and evaluation of potential synergistic opportunities.

If passed, Resolution 6 will allow the Company to issue, or agree to issue, Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the Additional Placement Period (as defined below) in addition to the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Listing Rule 7.1A

Equity Securities issued under the Additional 10% Placement Capacity must be in the same class as an existing quoted class of Equity Securities of the Company. As at the date of this Notice, the Company has quoted Shares on issue.

As at the date of this Notice, the Company has 340,739,459 Shares on issue. Therefore, based on the number of Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice and subject to Shareholders approving Resolution 6, the Company may issue 34,073,945 Equity Securities in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A. Shareholders should note that the calculation of the number of Equity Securities that may be issued under the Additional 10% Placement Capacity is a moving calculation and will be based the formula set out in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 at the time of issue, or the agreement to issue, the Equity Securities. That formula is:

(A x D) – E

A

is the number of Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:

  • (a) plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;

  • (b) plus the number of partly paid Shares that became fully paid in the 12 months;

  • (c) plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the 12 months with approval of Shareholders under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid Shares under the Company’s 15% placement capacity without Shareholder approval; and

  • (d) less the number of fully paid Shares cancelled in the 12 months.

Note that ‘A’ is has the same meaning in Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating an entity's 15% placement capacity.

D

is 10%.

E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of the issue or agreement to issue, that are not issued with the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.4.

Shareholders will be informed of any issue of Equity Securities under the Additional 10% Placement Capacity as the Company will disclose to the market at the time of issue the specific information required by Listing Rule 3.10.5A (such as details of dilution of existing Shareholders) in addition to information required by Listing Rule 7.1A.4, Appendix 3B and any other applicable Listing Rules. The table below demonstrates various examples as to the number of Equity Securities that may be issued using the Additional 10% Placement Capacity.

Note : The table above assumes:

  • (a) No Options are exercised before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities.

  • (b) The issue of Equity Securities under the Additional 10% Placement Capacity consists only of Shares.

  • (c) The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the Additional 10% Placement Capacity, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.

  • (d) The current market price used in the table is $0.022, being the last closing price of Shares on ASX on 3 April 2019 prior to the Company's current voluntary suspension.

The table shows only the effect of issues of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 6 is a special resolution, requiring approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative) to be passed.

Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A

The following information in relation to the Shares proposed to be issued is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3A:

Minimum price The Equity Securities will be issued at an issue price of not less than 75% of the
Volume Weighted Average Price for the Company's Equity Securities over the 15
Trading Days on which trades in the class were recorded immediately before:
(a)
the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is
agreed; or
(b)
if the Equity Securities are not issued within five Trading Days of the date in
paragraph (a) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
Potential risk of economic
and voting dilution
If Resolution 6 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues Equity
Securities under the Additional 10% Placement Capacity, Shareholders who do not
participate (either because they are not invited to participate or because they elect not
toparticipate)in anysuch issue, will have their existinginterest and voting power in

the Company diluted. There is also a risk that:
(a)
the market price for the Company's Equity Securities may be significantly lower
on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than on the date of the Meeting;
(b)
the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market
price for the Company's Equity Securities on the issue date or the Equity
Securities; or
(c)
the Equity Securities may be issued for non-cash consideration,
which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of Equity
Securities under the Additional 10% Placement Capacity.
The table above on page 4 shows the dilution of existing Shareholders upon the issue
of the maximum number of Equity Securities under the Additional 10% Placement
Capacity, using different variables for the number of ordinary securities for variable ‘A’
(as defined in Listing Rule 7.1A) and the market price of Shares. It is noted that
variable ‘A’ is based on the number of ordinary securities the Company has on issue
at the time of the proposed issue of Equity Securities.
The table shows:
(a)
examples of where variable ‘A’ is at its current level, and where variable ‘A’ has
increased by 50% and by 100%;
(b)
examples of where the issue price of Shares is the current market price ($0.022)
(being the price of Shares on ASX as at close of trade on 3 April 2019, being the
last closing price immediately prior to the Company's current voluntary
suspension), where the issue price is halved, and where it is doubled; and
(c)
that the dilutionary effect will always be 10% if the maximum number of Equity
Securities that may be issued under the Additional 10% Placement Capacity are
issued.
Timing of potential issues Approval of the Additional 10% Placement Capacity will be valid during the period
(Additional Placement Period) from the date of the Meeting and will expire on the
earlier of:
(a)
the date that is 12 months after the date of the Meeting; and
(b)
the date of the approval by Shareholders of a transaction under Listing Rules
11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal
of main undertaking).
Purpose of potential issues The Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for the following purposes:
(a)
If Equity Securities are issued for cash consideration, the Company intends to
use the funds for development of its existing assets, to acquire new assets or
investments and/or general working capital purposes; and
(b)
If Equity Securities are issued for non-cash consideration for the acquisition of
new assets in, or complementary to, the fintech sector. If Equity Securities are
issued for non-cash consideration, the Company will comply with the minimum
issue price limitation under Listing Rule 7.1A.3 in relation to such issue and will
release the valuation of the non-cash consideration to the market.
The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A.3
and 3.10.5A upon issue of any Equity Securities.
Allocation policy The identity of the persons to whom Equity Securities will be issued is not yet known
and will be determined on a case by case basis having regard to market conditions at
the time of the proposed issue of Equity Securities, including consideration of matters
including, but not limited to:
(a)
the ability of the Company to raise funds at the time of the proposed issue of
Equity Securities and whether the raising of any funds under such placement
could be carried out bymeans of an entitlement offer, or aplacement and an

entitlement offer;
(b)
the dilutionary effect of the proposed issue of the Equity Securities on existing
Shareholders at the time of proposed issued of Equity Securities;
(c)
the financial situation and solvency of the Company; and
(d)
advice from its professional advisers, including corporate, financial and broking
advisers (if applicable).
The persons to whom Equity Securities will be issued under the Additional 10%
Placement Capacity have not been determined as at the date of this Notice, but will
not include related parties (or their Associates) of the Company.

Listing Rule 7.1A
The Company previously obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A on
7 November 2018. In the 12 months preceding the date of the Meeting, the Company
has issued 13,000,000 Equity Securities which represents 3.27% of the total number
of Equity Securities on issue at the commencement of that 12-month period.
Annexure Csets out information in relation to each issue of Equity Securities in the
12 months preceding the date of the Meeting.
Voting exclusion statement A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice in relation to Resolution 6. The
Company has not approached, and has not yet determined to approach, any
particular existing security holders or an identifiable class of existing security holders
