Notice of Annual General Meeting

The Board is closely monitoring the rapidly changing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and relevant restrictions. The health of the Company’s shareholders, employees and other stakeholders is of paramount importance to your Board. Although the Board would like to be able to meet with shareholders in person at the Meeting, the Board recognises there is a possibility that between providing the Notice of Meeting, the COVID-19 environment may require either a hybrid or fully virtual Annual General Meeting if restrictions prevent or severely restrict a physical meeting. The Company will strictly comply with applicable limitations on gatherings in force at the time of the Meeting. Shareholders will be denied entry to the venue if the law requires this at the time.

If it becomes necessary or appropriate to make alternative arrangements for the Meeting to those set out in this Notice, the Company will notify shareholders accordingly via the Company’s website (www.foscapital.com.au) and the ASX announcements platform.

In the meantime, given the potential for travel restrictions and restrictions on gatherings to be imposed without notice, and to mitigate the risk of further spreading the virus, shareholders are encouraged not to attend the Meeting in person and, instead, to cast a direct vote or appoint the chair of the Meeting as their proxy using the accompanying proxy form.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

1 IMPORTANT NOTICE

The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide Shareholders with an explanation of the business of the meeting and the resolutions proposed to be considered at the Annual General Meeting to be held on Tuesday 30 November 2021 at 11:00am (AEDT) and to assist Members in determining how they wish to vote on the resolutions.

2 RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT

The Remuneration Report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2021 is included in the Directors’ Report in the Annual Report. The Remuneration Report sets out the Company’s remuneration arrangements for the Directors and senior management of the Company.

Section 249L(2) of the Corporations Act requires a company to inform Shareholders that a resolution on the Remuneration Report will be put at the Annual General Meeting (AGM). Section 250R of the Corporations Act requires a resolution that the Remuneration Report be adopted be put to the vote. Resolution 1 seeks this approval.

In accordance with Section 250R(3) of the Corporation Act, Shareholders should note that Resolution 1 is “advisory only” and does not bind the Company. However, the Directors recognise the outcome of this Resolution as an indication of Shareholder sentiment in relation to the FY21 Remuneration Report.

Shareholders have the ability to “spill” the Company’s board if there are “two strikes” against the adoption of the Remuneration Report at two successive AGMs. Under Section 250SA of the Corporation Act, the Chairman will provide a reasonable opportunity for discussion of the Remuneration Report at the AGM.

Under the Corporations Act 2001, if 25% or more of votes that are cast at the Meeting are voted against the adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive AGM’s, Shareholders will be required to vote at the second of those AGMs on an additional resolution (a “ Spill Resolution ”) that a future meeting be held within 90 days of the Spill Resolution. At that further meeting, all of the Company’s Directors (other than any Managing Director) must go up for re-election.

There will be no requirement at this AGM for a Spill Resolution.

Noting that each Director has a personal interest in their own remuneration as set out in the Remuneration Report, the Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.

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

3 RESOLUTION 2 – RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTOR - MICHAEL KOUTSAKIS

Mr Michael Koutsakis retires by rotation at this meeting and offers himself for re-election to the Board.

Details in relation to Michael Koutsakis are set out in the Directors’ Report section of the Annual Report. Mr Koutsakis is not an independent director.

The Directors (Mr Michael Koutsakis abstaining) unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2. The Chairman of the Meeting intends to vote all available proxies in favour on this Resolution.

4 RESOLUTION 3 – ISSUE OF SHARES TO SHAREHOLDERS OF ECOPOINT LIMITED, NEW ZEALAND

Background

On 27th September 2021 the Company entered into a contract to acquire 100% of all of the issued shares in Ecopoint Limited for the total consideration of NZ$1,870,000, payable in cash NZ$1,489,400 and NZ$380,600 payable by issuing 1,306.139 fully paid ordinary shares ( consideration shares ) at an implied issue price of AUS$0.28 per shares.

Pursuant to clause 4.2 of the Share Purchase Agreement the Company issued to shareholders of Ecopoint Limited, New Zealand or their nominee a total of 1,306,139 fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company ( Consideration Shares ) at an implied issue price of $0.28 per share as part of the consideration for the acquisition of the shares in Ecopoint Limited.

Why is Shareholder approval being sought?

The Consideration Shares were issued by the Company under the Company’s 15% annual securities issuing limit set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1. Subject to a number of exceptions, ASX Listing Rule 7.1 limits the number of Equity Securities (which includes shares, options over unissued shares, rights to shares and convertible notes) that a listed company may issue, or agree to issue, without shareholder approval in any rolling 12 month period to 15% of the company’s issued ordinary shares. However, ASX Listing Rule 7.4 provides that where a listed company in general meeting subsequently approves a prior issue of securities and that prior issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1, those securities will be treated as having been made with shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing 7.1. The Company is seeking Shareholder approval for the Consideration Share issue for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.4 to enable the Company to retain the flexibility to issue new Equity Securities following the meeting and up to the 15% limit in ASX Listing Rule 7.1, without the need to seek Shareholder approval.

If Resolution 3 is passed by Shareholders, the issue of the Consideration Shares will be excluded from the calculations of the Company’s 15% limit under Listing Rule 7.1. If Resolution 3 is not passed by Shareholders, the Consideration Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the issue date of the Consideration Shares.

Specific Information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.5

In addition to the above information, in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided for Shareholders:

  1. Names of the persons to whom the Company issued the Consideration Shares or the basis upon which those persons were identified or selected: The Consideration Shares were issued to the former shareholders of Ecopoint Limited.

  2. The number and class of securities issued: 1,306,139 fully paid ordinary shares in the Company at an implied issue price of $0.28 each.

  3. Date of issue: The Consideration Shares were issued on 1 October 2021.

  4. Issue price or other consideration the Company has received for the issue each Consideration Share: The Consideration Shares were issued as partial consideration for the acquisition of all of the issued capital of Ecopoint Limited. The implied issue price was $0.28 for each Consideration Share.

  5. The purpose of issue: The Consideration Shares were issued as partial consideration for the acquisition of all of the issued capital of Ecopoint Limited.

Page - 9

  1. The material terms – shares of Ecopoint Limited New Zealand were acquired for total consideration of NZ$1,870,000 payable in cash NZ$1,489,400 and NZ$380,600 payable by issuing 1,306.139 fully paid ordinary shares ( consideration shares ) at an implied issue price of AUS$0.28 per shares. Details of the acquisition are as detailed in the Company’s ASX market announcement dated 27 September 2021.

  2. The terms of the Consideration Shares: The Consideration Shares are fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company ranking equally with all other ordinary shares on issue in the capital of the Company.

Board Recommendation

The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution 3.

The Chairman of the AGM intends to vote all available proxies in favour of this Resolution 3.

5 RESOLUTION 4 - APPROVAL FOR ADDITIONAL PLACEMENT CAPACITY

4.1 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.

Under Listing Rule 7.1A, however, an eligible entity can seek approval from its members, by way of a special resolution passed at its annual general meeting, to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25% ( 10% Placement Capacity ).

An ‘eligible entity’ means an entity which is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and which has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. The Company is an eligible entity for these purposes.

Resolution 4 seeks shareholder approval by way of special resolution for the Company to have the additional 10% capacity provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A to issue equity securities without shareholder approval.

If resolution 4 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 4 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the additional 10% capacity to issue equity securities without shareholder approval provided for in 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.

The exact number of Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2, (refer to section 4.2 below).

The Directors believes that Resolution 4 is in the best interests of the Company and unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.

4.2 Listing Rule 7.1A

The ability to issue equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A is subject to Shareholder approval by way of special resolution at the Annual General Meeting.

Approval cannot be sought at any other Shareholder’s meeting and equity securities issued under the approval

Page - 10

(if obtained) must be issued within 12 months after the date of the Annual General Meeting. No equity securities can be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A before the special resolution is passed.

The issue of securities under this rule cannot be subsequently approved by security holders and then be treated as if the issue had received prior approval.

Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Capacity must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted Equity Securities. The Company currently has only one class of quoted Equity Securities on issue, being Ordinary Shares.

The exact number of Equity Securities that the Company may issue under an approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated according to the following formula:

(A x D) – E

Where:

A the number of fully paid Ordinary Shares on issue at the commencement of the relevant period:

  • plus, the number of fully paid Ordinary Shares issued in the relevant period under an exception in rule 7.2 other than exception 9, 16 or 17,

  • plus, the number of fully paid Ordinary Shares issued in the relevant period on the conversion of convertible securities within rule 7.2 exception 9 where;

  • the convertible securities were issued or agreed to be issued before the commencement of relevant period; or

  • the issue of, or agreement to issue, the convertible securities was approved, or taken under these rules to have been approved, under rule 7.1 or rule 7.4.

  • plus, the number of fully paid Ordinary Shares issued in the relevant period under an agreement to issue securities within rule 7.2 exception 16 where:

  • the agreement was entered into before the commencement of the relevant period; or

  • the agreement or issue was approved, or taken under these rules to have been approved, under rule 7.1 or rule 7.4,

  • plus, the number of fully paid Ordinary Shares issued in the relevant period with approval under rule 7.1 or rule 7.4,

  • plus, the number of partly paid Ordinary Shares that became fully paid in the relevant period,

  • less the number of fully paid Ordinary Shares cancelled in the relevant period.

Note that A has the same meaning in Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating the Company’s 15% placement capacity.

D means 10%.

  • E means 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 issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.

The ability of an entity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A is in addition to the entity's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

The Company has on issue 45,000,000 Ordinary Shares and therefore has a capacity to issue (assuming Resolution 4 is passed):

  • (i) 6,750,000 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1; and

  • (ii) 4,500,000 Shares under Listing Rule 7.1A.

Page - 11

The actual number of Shares that the Company will have capacity to issue under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated at the date of issue of the Shares in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to the formula above).

4.3 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 this Resolution 4:

(a) Minimum Price

The minimum price at which the Equity Securities may be issued is 75% of the volume weighted average price of the Company’s Equity Securities, calculated over the 15 Trading Days immediately before:

  • (i) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or

  • (ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

(b)

Date of Issue (Additional Placement Period)

The Equity Securities may be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity commencing on the date of the Annual General Meeting and expiring on the first to occur of the following:

  • (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the Annual General Meeting;

  • (ii) the time and date of the entity’s next annual general meeting and

  • (iii) 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 the Company’s activities) or 11.2 (disposal of the Company’s main undertaking),

or such longer period if allowed by ASX.

(c) Risk of voting dilution

Any issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any Ordinary Shares under the issue.

If Resolution 4 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Capacity, the economic and voting dilution of existing Ordinary Shares would be as shown in the table below. There is a risk that:

  • (i) the market price for the Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than on the date of the AGM; and

  • (ii) 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,

which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.

The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in Listing Rule 7.1A.2, on the basis of the current market price of Ordinary Shares as at 11 October 2021 and the current number of Equity Securities on issue for variable “A” of the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 as at the date of this Notice.

Page - 12

The table also shows:

  • (iii) an example where variable “A” has increased by 50% and 100%. Variable “A” is based on the number of Ordinary Shares the Company has on issue. The number of Ordinary Shares on issue may increase as a result of issues of Ordinary Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or future specific placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders’ meeting; and

  • (iv) an example of the result of the issue price of ordinary securities decreasing by 50% and increasing by 50% as against the current market price.

  • (v) The table above uses the following assumptions:

  • The current shares on issue are the Ordinary Shares on issue as at the date of this notice.

  • The issue price set out above is the closing price of the Ordinary Shares on the ASX on 11 October 2021.

  • The Company issues the maximum possible number of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity.

  • The Company has not issued any Equity Securities in the 12 months prior to the Annual General Meeting that were not issued under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • 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 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 or under any of the exceptions to Listing Rule 7.1 and assumes Resolution 4 is approved.

(d) Purpose of issue under 10% Placement Capacity

Any equity securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 must be issued for cash consideration. Accordingly, every issue of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 will have an accompanying proposed use of funds at the time of issue. As at the date of this Notice, the Company has not formed an intention to offer any equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the Listing Rule 7.1A Additional Placement Period. However, if Shareholders approve this Resolution and the Company did raise funds from the issue of equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, based on the Company’s existing plans, the Company considers that the funds may be used for general working capital purposes.

Page - 13

(e) Allocation under the 10% Placement Capacity

As at the date of the Notice the Company has not formed an intention to issue securities under a placement pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A, and accordingly the allottees of the Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been determined. However, the allottees 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 allottees at the time of the issue under the 10% Placement Capacity, having regard to the following factors:

  • (i) the purpose of the issue;

  • (ii) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;

  • (iii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;

  • (iv) the Company’s circumstances, including, but not limited to, its financial position and solvency;

  • (v) prevailing market conditions; and

  • (vi) advice from corporate, financial, and broking advisers (if applicable).

The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A(4) and 2.7 upon issue of any Equity Securities

(f) Previous Approval under Listing Rule 7.1A

The Company has not previously obtained approval under Listing Rule 7.1A.

(g) Previous issues of Equity Securities

(h) Voting Exclusion

A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice of Meeting. As at the date of this Explanatory Statement, the Company has not invited any existing Shareholder to participate in an issue of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A. Therefore, no existing Shareholders will be excluded from voting on Resolution 4.

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 11.00am (AEDT) on 26 November 2021. Any Proxy Form received after that time will not be valid for the scheduled meeting.
