FLEXIROAM EXTENDS CEO AND EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

Flexiroam Limited (ASX:FRX) ( Flexiroam or the Company ) is pleased to advise that it has renewed the employment agreement of CEO and Executive Director, Mr Marc Barnett.

Renewal terms

Together with the renewal, the Board has increased Mr Barnett’s annual remuneration to $500,000 per annum with effect from 1 April 2023 in recognition of the contribution Mr Barnett has made to the Company over the past two years. Other key terms of his employment are set out in the attached schedule.

The Board of Flexiroam considers this renewal agreement to be of material benefit to the Company as it continues to execute its current growth strategy. The Board firmly believes that Marc has been pivotal in the successful transition of the Company since his appointment as CEO in April 2021 and has helped Flexiroam become the leading network and connector for people and machines globally. Marc is well placed to lead the Flexiroam team to deliver key drivers to future success and substantial long-term shareholder value.

Flexiroam’s Chairman, Tat Seng Koh said: “On behalf of the Board, we are delighted that Marc has agreed to extend his employment agreement and the Board looks forward to continued growth and success under his leadership.”

Proposed issue of director options

The Board has also agreed, subject to shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14 (to be sought at the Company’s upcoming Annual General Meeting), to issue 40 million unlisted options to Mr Barnett. These options are proposed to be issued under the Company’s employee incentive plan in three separate tranches and will be subject to vesting and exercise conditions set out below. An additional pool will also be issued to employees under the Company’s employee incentive plan.

The issue of options is designed to align the interest of Flexiroam’s leadership and key employees with existing shareholders, and the Board believes that the grant of options is an appropriate method for linking the Company’s current remuneration structure to the achievement of short- and mediumterm goals and longer-term sustainable growth for shareholders. A notice of meeting containing further details of the proposed issue will be circulated to shareholders in due course.
