These pages of our annual report: This URL on our https://www.investor.flexiroam.com/ website:

The Corporate Governance Statement is accurate and up to date as at [insert effective date of statement] and has been approved by the board.

The annexure includes a key to where our corporate governance disclosures can be located.[3]

Date: 17 May 2021 Name of authorised officer The Board of Directors of Flexiroam Limited authorising lodgement:

1 “Corporate governance statement” is defined in Listing Rule 19.12 to mean the statement referred to in Listing Rule 4.10.3 which discloses the extent to which an entity has followed the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council during a particular reporting period.

Listing Rule 4.10.3 requires an entity that is included in the official list as an ASX Listing to include in its annual report either a corporate governance statement that meets the requirements of that rule or the URL of the page on its website where such a statement is located. The corporate governance statement must disclose the extent to which the entity has followed the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council during the reporting period. If the entity has not followed a recommendation for any part of the reporting period, its corporate governance statement must separately identify that recommendation and the period during which it was not followed and state its reasons for not following the recommendation and what (if any) alternative governance practices it adopted in lieu of the recommendation during that period.

Under Listing Rule 4.7.4, if an entity chooses to include its corporate governance statement on its website rather than in its annual report, it must lodge a copy of the corporate governance statement with ASX at the same time as it lodges its annual report with ASX. The corporate governance statement must be current as at the effective date specified in that statement for the purposes of Listing Rule 4.10.3.

Under Listing Rule 4.7.3, an entity must also lodge with ASX a completed Appendix 4G at the same time as it lodges its annual report with ASX. The Appendix 4G serves a dual purpose. It acts as a key designed to assist readers to locate the governance disclosures made by a listed entity under Listing Rule 4.10.3 and under the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s recommendations. It also acts as a verification tool for listed entities to confirm that they have met the disclosure requirements of Listing Rule 4.10.3.

The Appendix 4G is not a substitute for, and is not to be confused with, the entity's corporate governance statement. They serve different purposes and an entity must produce each of them separately.

2 Tick whichever option is correct and then complete the page number(s) of the annual report, or the URL of the web page, where your corporate governance statement can be found. You can, if you wish, delete the option which is not applicable.

3 Throughout this form, where you are given two or more options to select, you can, if you wish, delete any option which is not applicable and just retain the option that is applicable. If you select an option that includes “OR” at the end of the selection and you delete the other options, you can also, if you wish, delete the “OR” at the end of the selection. See notes 4 and 5 below for further instructions on how to complete this form.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

The Board of Directors ( Board ) is responsible for establishing Flexiroam Limited’s ( Company or Flexiroam ) corporate governance framework, the key features of which are set out below.

This corporate governance statement sets out a description of the main policies and practices adopted by the Company and discloses to the extent to which the Company has complied with the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations 4[th] Edition ( ASX Principles or Principles and Recommendations ) during the financial year ended 31 March 2021. Flexiroam has yet to review its policies and practices against the 4[th] edition of the ASX Principles due to the recently announced leadership and corporate changes. The Company will be reviewing and updating its policies and practices in the current financial year.

Where the Company’s corporate governance practices follow a recommendation, the Board has made appropriate statements reporting on the adoption of the recommendation. In compliance with the “if not, why not” reporting regime, where, after due consideration, the Company’s corporate governance practices do not follow a recommendation, the Board has explained its reasons for not following the recommendation and disclosed what, if any, alternative practices the Company has adopted instead of those in the recommendation.

The information in this statement is current as at 17 May 2021 and has been approved by the Board.

The following governance-related documents can be found on the Flexiroam website at https://www.investor.flexiroam.com/, under the section marked “Corporate Governance”:

  • (a) Board Charter;

  • (b) Board Performance Evaluation Policy;

  • (c) Code of Conduct;

  • (d) Audit Committee Charter;

  • (e) Remuneration and Nomination Committee Charter;

  • (f) Securities Trading Policy;

  • (g) Continuous Disclosure Policy;

  • (h) Shareholder Communications Policy;

  • (i) Risk Management Policy;

  • (j) Diversity Policy;

  • (k) Whistleblower Protection Policy; and

  • (l) Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption Policy.

Principle 1: Lay solid foundations for management and oversight

Recommendation 1.1

The Company has established the respective roles and responsibilities of its Board and management, and those matters expressly reserved to the Board and those delegated to management, and has documented this in its Board Charter.

The responsibilities of the Board include but are not limited to:

  • (a) Setting and reviewing strategic direction and planning;

  • (b) Reviewing financial and operational performance;

  • (c) Identifying principal risks and reviewing risk management strategies; and

  • (d) Considering and reviewing significant capital investments and material transactions.

In exercising its responsibilities, the Board recognises that there are many stakeholders in the operations of the Company, including employees, shareholders, co-venturers, the government and the community.

The Board has delegated responsibility for the business operations of the Company to the Chief Executive Officer. The Chief Executive Officer is accountable to the Board.

Recommendation 1.2

The Company undertakes appropriate checks before appointing a person or putting forward to shareholders a candidate for election as a director and provides shareholders with all material information in its possession relevant to a decision on whether or not to elect a director.

1

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

Recommendation 1.3

The Company has a written agreement with each of the directors and senior executives setting out the terms of their appointment. The material terms of any employment, service or consultancy agreement the Company, or any of its child entities, has entered into with its Chief Executive Officer, any of its directors, and any other person or entity who is a related party of the Chief Executive Officer or any of its directors will be disclosed in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 3.16.4 (taking into consideration the exclusions from disclosure outlined in that rule).

Recommendation 1.4

The Company Secretary is accountable directly to the Board (through the Chairman, if applicable) on all matters to do with the proper functioning of the Board. The Company Secretary assists in the application of best practice in corporate governance and supports the effectiveness of the Board by:

  • (a) ensuring a good flow of information between the Board, its committees, and directors;

  • (b) monitoring policies and procedures of the Board;

  • (c) advising the Board (through the Chairman, if applicable) of corporate governance policies; and

  • (d) conducting and reporting matters of the Board, including the despatch of Board agendas, briefing papers and minutes.

Recommendation 1.5

The Company has a Diversity Policy, the purpose of which is:

  • (a) to outline the Company’s commitment to creating a corporate culture that embraces diversity and, in particular, focuses on the composition of its Board and senior management; and

  • (b) to provide a process for the Board to determine measurable objectives and procedures which the Company will implement and report against to achieve its diversity goals.

The Company does not select candidates based on gender or ethnicity. Rather, the recruitment process provides a choice of candidates from a diverse pool after canvassing the relevant market and by selecting the most appropriate candidate based on merit and suitability for the role.

As at 31 March 2021, there are two (2) women in senior executive positions in the Company, and seven (7) women employees across the Company, representing 41% of the whole organisation. There are no women on the Board at this time. The Board maintains full transparency of board processes, reviews and appointments, and encourages gender diversity.

Recommendation 1.6

As the Company does not presently have a nominated Chairman, the Chief Executive Officer is responsible for evaluating the performance of the Board, its committees (if any) and individual directors in accordance with the process disclosed in the Company’s Board Performance Evaluation Policy.

This policy is to ensure:

  • (a) individual directors and the Board as a whole work efficiently and effectively in achieving their functions;

  • (b) the executive directors and key executives execute the Company’s strategy through the efficient and effective implementation of the business objectives; and

  • (c) committees to which the Board has delegated responsibilities (if any) are performing efficiently and effectively in accordance with the duties and responsibilities set out in the Board Charter.

This policy is reviewed annually. No evaluation has been conducted during the reporting period.

Recommendation 1.7

The Chief Executive Officer is responsible for evaluating the performance of the Company’s senior executives. As the Company does not presently have a nominated Chairman, the Board as a whole is responsible for evaluating the performance of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

2

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

No formal evaluation of the performance of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and senior executives were conducted during the reporting period. Flexiroam is looking to establish an annual review process to ensure that the Board is able to meet the demands of a rapidly changing word and oversee the implementation of the Company’s long-term strategy.

Principle 2: Structure the board to add value

Recommendation 2.1

Due to the size of the Board, the Company does not have a separate nomination committee ( NC ). The roles and responsibilities of the committee are currently undertaken by the Board.

The duties of the full Board acting in its capacity as NC are set out in the Company’s Remuneration and Nomination Committee Charter which is available on the Company’s website.

When the Board meets as a committee, it carries out those functions which are delegated to it in the Company’s Remuneration and Nomination Committee Charter. Items that are usually required to be discussed by an NC are marked as separate agenda items at Board meetings when required.

Recommendation 2.2

The mix of skills and diversity which the Board is looking to achieve in its composition is:

  • (a) a broad range of business experience; and

  • (b) technical expertise and skills required to discharge duties.

However, a formal Board skills matrix setting out the mix of skills and diversity that the Board currently has or is looking to achieve in its membership has not been established, and therefore the Company does not comply with Recommendation 2.2. As mentioned above, Flexiroam is looking to establish an annual review process for its Board and will give consideration to the establishment of such a matrix.

Recommendation 2.3

The Board considers the independence of directors having regard to the relevant factors listed in Box 2.3 of the Principles and Recommendations. Currently the Board is structured as follows:

  • (a) Marc Barnett (Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer) – appointed 22 February 2021;

  • (b) Jefrey Ong (Executive Director and Chief Innovation Officer) – appointed 18 March 2015;

  • (c) Tat Seng Koh (Non-Executive Director) – appointed 3 September 2018;

  • (d) Tuckyin Choy (Non-Executive Director) – appointed 13 May 2019; and

  • (e) Thian Choy Ong (Non-Executive Director) – appointed 1 October 2019.

Marc Barnett and Jefrey Ong are both executive directors, and accordingly, are not considered to be independent.

Tat Seng Koh and Thian Choy Ong are substantial shareholders and therefore not considered to be independent.

Tuckyin Choy is considered to be an independent non-executive director as he is free from any interest, position, association or relationship that could materially interfere with, or reasonably be perceived to materially interfere with, the independent exercise of his judgement.

Recommendation 2.4

The Company is at variance with Recommendation 2.4 in that the majority of directors are not independent. The Board has determined that the current composition of the Board is appropriate, as the directors have a suitable range of qualifications and expertise to understand and competently deal with current and emerging business issues and effectively review and challenge the performance of management. In addition, each individual member of the Board is satisfied that whilst the Company may not comply with Recommendation 2.4, all directors bring an independent judgement to bear on Board decisions.

Recommendation 2.5

The Company does not presently have a chairman.

3

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

Recommendation 2.6

It is a policy of the Company that new directors undergo an induction process in which they are given a full briefing on the Company.

Flexiroam understands that directors should be encouraged to undertake professional development to maintain the skills and knowledge needed to perform their role as directors effectively and will look to establish and implement a development guideline, in line with an annual review process for its Board of Directors.

Principle 3: Act ethically and responsibly

Recommendation 3.1

The Company will look to refreshing its organisational values in the current financial year and beyond as it emerges from a challenging FY2021.

Recommendation 3.2

The Company is committed to promoting good corporate conduct grounded on strong ethics and responsibility. The Company has adopted a Code of Conduct ( Code ) which addresses matters relevant to the Company’s legal and ethical obligations to its stakeholders. The Code may be amended from time to time by the Board and is disclosed on the Company’s website. The Code applies to all directors, employees, contractors and officers of the Company.

Recommendation 3.3

The Whistleblower Policy demonstrates that the Company is committed to high standards of conduct and ethical behaviour in all its business activities. The Company supports a culture of honest and ethical behaviour in ensuring good corporate compliance and governance. The policy sets out, amongst other things, instances of suspected misconduct which can be reported to the internal and external parties and summarises the protections offered to whistleblowers. Any material breach of the Company’s policies, including any breach of the Whistleblower Policy, is raised and reviewed at Board Meetings.

Recommendation 3.4

The Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy demonstrates that the Company is committed to maintain high standards of integrity and accountability in conducting its business. The policy provides a framework of guidelines and principles to encourage ethical behaviour in the conduct of business. Any material breach of the Company’s policies, including any breach of the Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy, is raised and reviewed at Board Meetings.

Principle 4: Safeguard integrity in corporate reporting

Recommendation 4.1

Due to the size of the Board, the Company does not have a separate audit committee ( AC ). The roles and responsibilities of an AC are undertaken by the Board.

The full Board in its capacity as the AC is responsible for reviewing the integrity of the Company’s financial reporting and overseeing the independence of the external auditors. The Board has adopted an Audit Committee Charter which describes the role, composition, functions and responsibilities of the AC and is disclosed on the Company’s website.

When the Board meets as a committee, it carries out those functions which are delegated to it in the Company’s Audit Committee Charter. Items that are usually required to be discussed by the committee are marked as separate agenda items at Board meetings when required.

The Board is responsible for the initial appointment of the external auditor and the appointment of a new external auditor when a vacancy arises. Candidates for the position of external auditor must demonstrate complete independence from the Company throughout the engagement period. The Board may otherwise select an external auditor based on criteria relevant to the Company's business and circumstances. The performance of the external auditor is reviewed on an annual basis by the Board.

Recommendation 4.2

Before the Board approves the Company’s financial statements for each financial period it receives from the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer (or equivalents) a declaration that, in their opinion, the financial records of the Company for the relevant financial period have been properly maintained and that the

4

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

financial statements for the relevant financial period comply with the appropriate accounting standards and give a true and fair view of the financial position and performance of the Company and the consolidated entity and that the opinion has been formed on the basis of a sound system of risk management and internal control which are operating effectively.

Recommendation 4.3

Under section 250RA of the Corporations Act, the Company’s auditor is required to attend the Company’s annual general meeting at which the annual report is considered, and must arrange to be represented by a person who is a suitably qualified member of the audit team that conducted the audit and is in a position to answer questions about the audit. Each year, the Company informs the Company’s auditor of the date of the Company’s annual general meeting. In accordance with section 250S of the Corporations Act, at the Company’s annual general meeting where the Company’s auditor or their representative is at the meeting, the Chairman allows a reasonable opportunity for the members present at the meeting to ask the auditor (or its representative) questions relevant to the conduct of the audit, the preparation and content of the auditor’s 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.

  • (c) providing equal opportunity for all stakeholders to receive externally available information issued by the Company in a timely manner.

The Company has adopted a Disclosure Policy, which is available on the Company’s website.

The Disclosure Policy sets out policies and procedures for the Company’s compliance with its continuous disclosure obligations under the ASX Listing Rules, and addresses financial markets communication, media contact and continuous disclosure issues. It forms part of the Company’s corporate policies and procedures and is available to all staff.

The Chief Executive Officer manages the policy. The policy will develop over time as best practice and regulations change and the Company Secretary will be responsible for communicating any amendments. The policy is reviewed by the Board annually.

Recommendation 5.2

The Company ensures that its Board receives copies of all material market announcements prior to release to the market followed by immediate notification, including the announcement, following its release to the market.

Recommendation 5.3

In accordance with the recommendation, the Company ensures that all substantive presentations are released to the ASX and the market prior to a presentation taking place.

Recommendation 6.3

The Board encourages full participation of shareholders at meetings to ensure a high level of accountability and identification with the Company’s strategies and goals.

However, due to the size and nature of the Company, the Board does not consider a policy outlining the policies and processes that it has in place to facilitate and encourage participating at meetings of shareholders to be appropriate at this stage.

Recommendation 6.5

In order to ascertain the true will of the Company’s security holders attending and voting at its security holder meetings, whether they attend in person, virtually or by proxy or other representative, in most situations where this can be achieved the Company will conduct the voting procedure by a poll.

Shareholders are given the option to receive communications from, and send communications to, the Company and its share registry electronically.

Principle 7: Recognise and manage risk

Due to the size of the Board, the Company does not have a separate Risk Committee ( RC ). The Board is responsible for the oversight of the Company’s risk management and control framework.

The Board has adopted a Risk Management Policy, which is disclosed on the Company’s website. Under the policy, responsibility and control of risk management is delegated to the appropriate level of management within the Company with the Chief Executive Officer having ultimate responsibility to the Board for the risk management and control framework.
