Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits a public company from giving a financial benefit to a related party of a public company unless the benefit falls within one of various exceptions to the general prohibition. One of the exceptions includes where the company first obtains the approval of its shareholders in a general meeting in circumstances where the requirements of Chapter 2E in relation to the convening of that meeting have been met.

A “related party” for the purposes of the Corporations Act is defined widely and includes a director of the public company and any alternate director.

A “financial benefit” for the purposes of the Corporations Act has a very wide meaning. It includes the public company paying money or issuing securities to the related party. In

Page 4 of 11

determining whether or not a financial benefit is being given, it is necessary to look to the economic and commercial substance and effect of what the public company is doing (rather than just the legal form). Any consideration which is given for the financial benefit is to be disregarded, even if it is full or adequate.

Resolution 1, if passed, will confer financial benefits to Mr A Branch, Resolution 2 if passed, will confer financial benefits to Mr M Leonard and Resolution 3 if passed, will confer financial benefits to Mr R Koenig and the Company seeks to obtain member approval in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and for this reason and for all other purposes the following information is provided to shareholders.

1. The Related Parties to whom Resolutions 1, 2 and 3 would permit a financial benefit to be given are:

Each of Mr Allan Branch, Mr Michael Leonard and Mr Ray Koenig (or their respective nominees), being Directors of the Company.

2. The Nature of the Financial Benefit

The nature of the proposed financial benefit to be given is:

  • a. the grant of 500,000 Options to Mr Allan Branch, 250,000 Options to Mr Michael Leonard and 250,000 Options to Mr Ray Koenig;

  • b. the Options shall be exercisable into fully paid ordinary shares at an Exercise Price of $0.15 per share exercisable on or before 8 May 2015; and

  • c. the Options shall be granted for no cash consideration. Consequently no funds will be raised as a result of the grant of the Options. A total of $150,000 in additional share capital would be raised if the Options were exercised in full.

The terms of the Options are set out at Annexure A to this Explanatory Statement.

3. Directors’ Recommendation

With respect to Resolution 1 , all of the Directors (with the exception of Mr Allan Branch) recommend that shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution. The reasons for their recommendation are set out below.

As Mr Allan Branch is interested in the outcome of Resolution 1, he accordingly makes no recommendation to shareholders in respect of this Resolution.

With respect to Resolution 2 , all of the Directors (with the exception of Mr Michael Leonard) recommend that shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution. The reasons for their recommendation are set out below.

As Mr Michael Leonard is interested in the outcome of Resolution 2, he accordingly makes no recommendation to shareholders in respect of this Resolution.

With respect to Resolution 3 , all of the Directors (with the exception of Mr Ray Koenig) recommend that shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution. The reasons for their recommendation are set out below.

As Mr Ray Koenig is interested in the outcome of Resolution 3, he accordingly makes no recommendation to shareholders in respect of this Resolution.

The reasons for the Directors’ recommendation are:

  • a. The grant of the Options as proposed to Mr Allan Branch under Resolution 1, are in accordance with the terms of his appointment to the position of Managing Director on 3 May 2012; and

  • b. The grant of the Options as proposed under Resolutions 1, 2 and 3 to the Recipients will provide reward and incentive for future services provided to the Company to further the progress of the Company and to deliver growth and shareholder value; and

Page 5 of 11

  • c. In the Company’s circumstances, the Directors considered that the allotment of the Options provides a cost-effective and efficient incentive as opposed to alternative forms of incentives (eg cash bonuses, increased remuneration). However, it must be recognised that there will be an opportunity cost to the Company, being the price at which the Company could grant the Options to a third party.

4. Director’s Interest and other Remuneration

Mr Allan Branch

Mr Branch has a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 1, as it is proposed that the Options be granted to him (or his respective nominee) as set out in Resolution 1.

Excluding the Options referred to above, Mr Branch (and entities associated with him) holds no other shares and no other options of the Company. Please refer to the table below.

Other than the Options to be issued to Mr Branch pursuant to Resolution 1, a company associated with Mr Branch shall receive consulting fees of $222,000 per annum from the Company for the provision of his services as Managing Director of the Company.

Mr Michael Leonard

Mr Leonard has a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 2, as it is proposed that the Options be granted to him (or his respective nominee) as set out in Resolution 2.

Excluding the Options referred to above, Mr Leonard (and entities associated with him) holds no other shares and no other options of the Company. Please refer to the table below.

Other than the Options to be issued to Mr Leonard pursuant to Resolution 2, Mr Leonard shall receive director’s fees of $54,500 per annum including superannuation from the Company for his services as Non-executive Chairman of the Company.

5. Valuation

The Options are not currently quoted on the ASX and as such have no market value. The Options may acquire future value dependent upon the extent to which the shares exceed the Exercise Price of the Options during the term of the Options.

As a general proposition, options to subscribe for fully paid ordinary shares in a company have value. There are various formulae which can be applied to determining the theoretical value of options.

The Board has determined the value of the Options to be issued pursuant to this resolution to be approximately 7.1 cents per Option (representing a total value of approximately $70,680).

This value has been derived using the Black-Scholes and the Binomial Model Option Pricing Model assuming the following:

  • a share price of 12 cents (being the closing price of shares on the ASX on 9 May 2012);

  • an exercise price of 15 cents;

  • a risk free rate of 2.67% per annum;

  • a volatility factor of 100.8%, which has been determined having regard to the historical trading of shares on ASX;

  • an expiry date of three years from the date of issue; and

  • all other terms and conditions as outlined in this Explanatory Statement.

6. Any other information that is reasonably required by shareholders to make a decision and that is known to the Company or any of its Directors

There is no other information known to the Company or any of its Directors except as follows:

Opportunity Costs

The opportunity costs and benefits foregone by the Company issuing the Options to each of the recipients is the potentially dilutionary impact on the issued share capital of the Company (in the event that the Options are exercised). Until exercised, the issue of the Options will not impact upon the number of ordinary shares on issue in the Company. To the extent that upon their exercise the dilutionary impact caused with the issue of shares will be detrimental to the Company, this is more than offset by the advantages accruing from the Company securing the services of experienced and skilled directors on appropriately incentivised terms.

It is also considered that the potential increase of value in the Options is dependent upon a concomitant increase in the value of the Company generally.

Dilutionary Effect

Share Price History

In order to assist shareholders to appropriately consider the Resolutions, it is noted that the Company’s shares have traded on ASX in the 3 months prior to the date of this Notice of General Meeting between $0.15 (15 cents) on 26 March 2012 and $0.08 (8 cents) on 24 May 2012. At the close of trading on 12 June 2012, the Company’s share price was $0.085 (8.5 cents).

7. Resolution 1 ASX Listing Rules

ASX Listing Rule 10.14 provides, in essence, that the approval of shareholders is required before a director of a company can acquire securities under an employee incentive scheme. Accordingly, in order for a director to be issued the Options and acquire any subsequent shares, the Company must obtain shareholder approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.14. Approval for the Options being issued to the Non-executive Directors is being sought under ASX Listing Rule 10.11.

ASX Listing Rule 10.15A sets out a number of matters which must be included in a notice of meeting requesting shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.14. In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.15A, the following information is provided to shareholders in relation to Resolution 1.

Resolutions 2 and 3: Approval of Grant of Options to Non- executive Directors

8. ASX Listing Rules

As the issue of Options for which approvals are sought under Resolutions 2 and 3 is not under the Company’s Long Term Incentive Plan, the Company must comply with ASX Listing Rule 10.11.

ASX Listing Rule 10.11 requires an entity to obtain the approval of Shareholders to an issue of securities to a related party. Each of Mr Leonard and Mr Koenig, being a Non-executive Director of the Company, is a related party. Accordingly, because the issue of the Options will result in the Company issuing securities to a related party, approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.11 is required.

For the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.11, and for all other purposes, the following information is provided to shareholders for the purposes of Resolution 2 and Resolution 3:

Page 9 of 11

  • a. the Options will be granted as soon as practicable after the Meeting, but in any event, no later than 1 month after the date of the Meeting; and
