3.1 General
Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act requires a listed company to put to its shareholders (at its annual general meeting) a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted. Such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company.

6. Resolution 4 – Election of Director – Mark Aubrey
The Constitution allows the Directors to appoint at any time a person to be a Director either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing Directors, but only where the total number of Directors does not at any time exceed the maximum number specified by the Constitution.
Pursuant to the Constitution and Listing Rule 14.4, any Director so appointed holds office only until the next annual general meeting and is then eligible for election by Shareholders but shall not be taken into account in determining the Directors who are to retire by rotation (if any) at that meeting.
The other Directors appointed Mark Aubrey on 15 March 2024, and in accordance with the Constitution Mr Aubrey will retire in accordance with the Constitution and Listing Rule 14.4 and being eligible, seeks election from Shareholders.

Mr Aubrey has no interests, position or relationship that might influence, or reasonably be perceived to influence, in a material respect his capacity to bring an independent judgement to bear on issues before the Board and to act in the best interest of the Company as a whole rather than in the interests of an individual security holder or other party.

7. Resolution 5 – Election of Director – Chris Whiteman

Mr Whiteman has no interests, position or relationship that might influence, or reasonably be perceived to influence, in a material respect his capacity to bring an independent judgement to bear on issues before the Board and to act in the best interest of the Company as a whole rather than in the interests of an individual security holder or other party.

8. Resolution 6 – Approval to issue equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A
8.1 General
Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of Equity Securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that period.
However, under Listing Rule 7.1A, an eligible entity may seek shareholder approval by way of a Special Resolution passed at its annual general meeting to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25% (7.1A Mandate).
An ‘eligible entity’ means an entity which is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300,000,000 or less.
As at the date of this Notice, the Company is an eligible entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a current market capitalisation of approximately $10,580,000 (based on the number of Shares on issue and the closing price of Shares on the ASX on 16 October 2024).
Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval by way of a Special Resolution for the Company to have the additional 10% placement capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A to issue Equity Securities without further Shareholder approval.
If Resolution 6 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities up to the combined 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without any further Shareholder approval.
If Resolution 6 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the additional 10% capacity to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A, and will remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing Equity Securities without Shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.
8.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.1A
Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to Resolution 6:
| Technical information required | Approval of 7.1A Mandate |
|---|---|
| Period for which the 7.1A Mandate approval is valid |
The 7.1A Mandate will commence on the date of the Meeting and expire on the first to occur of the following: (a) the date that is 12 months after the date of this Meeting; (b) the time and date of the Company’s next annual general meeting; and (c) the time and date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change in the nature or scale of activities) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of the main undertaking). |
| Minimum Price | Any Equity Securities issued under the 7.1A Mandate must be in an existing quoted class of Equity Securities and be issued at a minimum price of 75% of the volume weighted average price of Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before: (a) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed by the entity and the recipient of the Equity Securities; or (b) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 trading days of the date in Section 10.3(a), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued. |
| Use of funds raised under 7.1A Mandate |
The Company intends to use funds raised from issues of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate (which must be issued for cash consideration) to fund the Company’s ongoing business operations and working capital. |
| Risk of Economic and Voting Dilution |
Any issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Shares under the issue. |
| If Resolution 6 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 7.1A Mandate, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below. The table below in paragraph 7.3 titled‘Voting Dilution Impact Table’shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in Listing Rule 7.1A.2, on the basis of the closing market price of Shares and the number of Equity Securities on issue as at 16 October 2024. The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issueprice of Shares issued under the 7.1A Mandate. |
|
|---|---|
| Allocation policy under the 7.1A Mandate |
The recipients of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 7.1A Mandate have not yet been determined. However, the recipients of Equity Securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company. The Company will determine the recipients at the time of the issue under the 7.1A Mandate, having regard to the following factors: 1. the purpose of the issue; 2. alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue, share purchase plan, placement or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate; 3. the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company; 4. the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company; 5. prevailing market conditions; and 6. advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable). |
| Previous approval under Listing Rule 7.1A |
The Company did not obtain approval from its Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A at its last annual general meeting on 29 November 2023 and has therefore issued no shares under the Listing Rule 7.1A mandate in the preceding 12 months. |
| Voting exclusion statement | A Voting Exclusion Statement has been provided for this Resolution 6 in the Agenda Section in this Notice. However as there is no presently proposed issue under this Resolution 6, no votes will be disregarded for the purposes of the Voting Exclusion Statement. |
8.3 Voting Dilution Impact Table
This table shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in Listing Rule 7.1A.2, on the basis of the closing market price of Shares and the number of Equity Securities on issue as at 16 October 2024:
| Dilution | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Issue Price | |||||
| Number of Shares on Issue | Shares issued – | $0.0245 | $0.049 | $0.098 | |
| (Variable A in Listing Rule 7.1A.2) |
10% voting dilution |
50% decrease | Issue Price | 100% increase |
|
| Funds Raised | |||||
| Current | 216,063,408 | 21,606,341 | $529,355 | $1,058,711 | $2,117,421 |
| 50% increase |
324,095,112 | 32,409,511 | $794,033 | $1,588,066 | $3,176,132 |
| 100% increase |
432,126,816 | 43,212,682 | $1,058,711 | $2,117,421 | $4,234,843 |
*The number of Shares on issue (Variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a pro-rata rights issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
The table above uses the following assumptions:
-
There are currently 216,063,408 Shares on issue as at 16 October 2024.
-
The issue price set out above is the closing market price of the Shares on the ASX on 16 October 2024 (being, $0.049).
-
The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate.
-
The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
-
The issue of Equity Securities under the 7.1A Mandate consists only of Shares. It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Equity Securities. If the issue of Equity Securities includes quoted Options, it is assumed that
those quoted Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.
-
The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.
-
This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under Listing Rule 7.1 unless otherwise disclosed.
-
The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.
-
The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 7.1A mandate, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.
Shareholders should note that the risk of economic and voting dilution to existing ordinary security holders that may result from an issue of equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.2, includes the risk that:
-
the market price for the Company’s Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and
-
the Shares may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those Shares on the date of issue.
8.4 Board Recommendation
The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 6 as it provides the Company with flexibility to issue further securities representing up to 10% of the Company’s Share capital during the next 12 months. The Chair intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 6.
9. Resolution 7 – Spill Resolution – Conditional Resolution
Conditional Item: Resolution 7 (known as a ‘Spill Resolution’) will only be put to the Annual General Meeting if at least 25% of the votes cast on Resolution 1 are cast against the adoption of the Remuneration Report. If fewer than 25% of the votes are cast against its adoption, then there will be no “second strike” and Resolution 7 will not be put to the Annual General Meeting.
9.1 General
Although the effect of Resolution 1 is advisory only, section 250V of the Corporations Act includes a “two strike” rule in relation to remuneration reports where companies are required to put a resolution to shareholders to hold fresh elections for directors if, at two consecutive annual general meetings, at least 25% of the votes cast on a resolution (such as Resolution 1) to adopt the remuneration report are cast against that resolution. If required, a spill resolution (described below) must be put to vote at the second of those annual general meetings.
At the Company’s 2023 annual general meeting, more than 25% of the votes cast on the resolution to adopt the 2023 remuneration report were against adopting the report and the Company received the ‘first strike’.
Resolution 7 is a conditional resolution and will only be put to the Annual General Meeting if at least 25% of the votes validly cast on Resolution 1 are cast against the adoption of the Remuneration Report and the Company receives a ‘second strike’.
If more than 50% of votes cast are in favour of this Resolution 7, the Spill Resolution, the Company must convene a shareholder meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days of the Annual General Meeting. If a Spill Meeting is required, the date of the meeting will be notified to shareholders in due course.
If the Spill Meeting is held, the following Directors will automatically vacate office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting unless they stand for re-election and are re-elected at the Spill Meeting:
-
David Butorac
-
Ian Hogg
-
Mark Aubrey
-
Chris Whiteman
Even if the Directors are re-elected at the Annual General Meeting, they will still need to stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting.
The Directors listed above are those who held office on 27 September 2024 when the 2024 Directors’ Report was approved. Only Non-Executive Directors are required to stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting and therefore, Mr David Yin as Managing Director is not required to stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting.
In deciding how to vote on any Spill Meeting resolution put to the Annual General Meeting, the Board recommends that Shareholders consider the following factors:
-
the substantial additional expense which holding a Spill Meeting would cause;
-
the Board’s view that it currently has the right mix of skills and experience; and
-
the disruption to the Company which would be caused by changes to the Board composition.
If the Company does not receive a “second strike” or the Spill Resolution fails, then the Company has a “clean slate” and will enter the 2025 Annual General Meeting with no “strikes”.
9.2 Proxy voting restrictions
Shareholders appointing a proxy for this Resolution should note the voting restrictions applying to Resolution 1 apply in the same manner to this Resolution.
9.3 Board recommendations
Noting that each Director has a personal interest in their own remuneration from the Company as set out in the Remuneration Report, if this Resolution 7 is put to the meeting, the Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote against Resolution 7 on the basis that Spill Meeting would be disruptive, costly and, in the Board’s view, it would be inappropriate to seek to remove all of the Non-Executive Directors in the circumstances.
