1 Under Listing Rule 4.7.3, an entity must lodge with ASX a completed Appendix 4G at the same time as it lodges its annual report with ASX.

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 rule 4.10.3.

2 “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.

3 Mark whichever option is correct and then complete the page number(s) of the annual report, or the URL of the web page, where the entity’s corporate governance statement can be found.

ASX Recommendation

Status Reference / Comment

Principle 1 – Lay solid foundations for management and oversight

A listed entity should establish and disclose the respective roles and responsibilities of its board and management and how their performance is monitored and evaluated.

ASX Recommendation	ASX Recommendation	Status	Reference / Comment
Principle 1 – Lay solid foundations for management and oversight A listed entity should establish and disclose the respective roles and responsibilities of its board and management and how their performance is monitored and evaluated.
1.1	A listed entity should disclose: (a) the respective roles and responsibilities of its board and management; and (b) those matters expressly reserved to the board and those delegated to management.	Complying	The Board has adopted a charter (Board Charter) which establishes the role of the Board and its relationship with management. The Board Charter clearly articulates the division of responsibilities between the Board and management, in order to manage expectations and avoid misunderstandings about their respective roles and accountabilities. As detailed in the Board Charter, the primary role of the Board is the protection and enhancement of long term shareholder value, and its responsibilities include the overall strategic direction of the Group, establishing goals for management and monitoring the achievement of these goals. The Board is also responsible for the overall corporate governance of Genesis. The Board Charter additionally sets out the role and responsibility of the Chairman, and outlines the Board’s policy on when and how Directors may seek independent professional advice at the expense of the Company. The Board has delegated to the Managing Director (MD) the authority and power to manage Genesis and its businesses within levels of authority specified by the Board from time to time. The MD may sub-delegate aspects of his authority and power but remains accountable to the Board for Genesis’s performance and is required to report regularly to the Board on the progress being made by Genesis’s business units. In accordance with the Board Charter, the Board will review the Board Charter at least annually, and in doing so will continually review the division of functions between the Board and management to ensure that it continues to be appropriate to the needs of the Group. A copy of the Board Charter is available on the Website.

ASX Recommendation	ASX Recommendation	Status	Reference / Comment
1.2	A listed entity should: (a) undertake appropriate checks before appointing a person, or putting forward to security holders a candidate for election, as a director; and (b) provide security holders with all material information in its possession relevant to a decision on whether or not to elect or re- elect a director.	Complying	Presently the Board as a whole performs the function of a nomination committee. It is the role of the Board, in performing the function of a nomination committee, to identify suitable candidates to complement the existing Board, to undertake appropriate checks on the candidate; to seek confirmation from the candidate that he/she will have sufficient time to fulfil his or her responsibilities as a director. Where appropriate, external consultants may be engaged to assist in searching for candidates and undertaking relevant checks. The Company provides information to shareholders about Directors seeking re-election at general meeting to enable them to make an informed decision on whether or not to re-elect the Director, including their relevant qualifications and experience and the skills they bring to the Board; details of any other listed directorships held by the Director in the preceding 3 years; the term of office already served by the Director; whether the Director is considered to be independent; and a recommendation by the Board in respect of the re-election of the Director. The Company will, in the case of a candidate standing for election as a director for the first time, provide information to shareholders about the candidate to enable them to make an informed decision on whether or not to elect the candidate, including material adverse information revealed by any checks the Board has performed on the candidate; details of any interest, position, association or relationship that might influence, or reasonably be perceived to influence, in a material respect the candidate’s capacity to exercise independent judgement on Board matters or to act in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders generally; the Board’s view on whether the candidate will be considered to be an independent Director; and a recommendation by the Board in respect of the election of the candidate.
1.3	A listed entity should have a written agreement with each director and senior executive setting out the terms of their appointment.	Complying	All Directors and senior executives have entered into written agreements with the Company. Specifically, each Non-Executive Director has been given a letter of appointment which outlines terms including the Director’s duties, obligations, remuneration, expected time commitments and notification of the Company’s policies. Similarly, senior executives including the Managing Director and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), have a formal job description and services agreement or employment agreement with the Company describing their term of office, duties, rights and responsibilities, and entitlements on termination.
1.4	The company secretary of a listed entity should be accountable directly to the board, through the chair, on all matters to do with the proper functioning of the board.	Complying	The Company Secretary is responsible for the day to day operations of the company secretary’s office, including the administration of Board and committee meetings, overseeing Genesis’s relationship with its share registrar and lodgements with the ASX and other regulators. The Company Secretary is also responsible for communications with the ASX about listing rule matters, including making disclosures to the ASX in accordance with Genesis’s Continuous Disclosure Policy. The Company Secretary supports the effectiveness of the Board by monitoring compliance with Board policies and procedures, and co-ordinating the completion and despatch of Board agendas and briefing papers.

ASX Recommendation	ASX Recommendation	Status	Reference / Comment
			The Company Secretary is accountable to the Board, and all Directors have access to the Company Secretary. The decision to appoint or remove the Company Secretary is made or approved by the Board.
1.5	A listed entity should: (a) have a diversity policy which includes requirements for the board or a relevant committee of the board to set measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity and to assess annually both the objectives and the entity’s progress in achieving them; (b) disclose that policy or a summary of it; and (c) disclose as at the end of each reporting period the measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity set by the board or a relevant committee of the board in accordance with the entity’s diversity policy and its progress towards achieving them, and either: (1) the respective proportions of men and women on the board, in senior executive positions and across the whole organisation (including how the entity has defined “senior executive” for these purposes); or (2) if the entity is a “relevant employer” under the Workplace Gender Equality Act, the entity’s most recent “Gender Equality Indicators”, as defined in and published under that Act.	Part- Complying	The Board has contemplated the necessity of implementing a diversity policy. Noting the relatively small size of the Company and the fact that the Company has only a small number of employees, the Board has resolved to depart from the Recommendations by not implementing a gender diversity policy. Whilst the Company has not set formal measurable objectives for achieving gender diversity, at such time that the Company seeks to establish and expand its workforce, the Company will be committed to the principles of employing people with a broad range of experiences, skills and views. As at 30 June 2017, the Group had 23 employees and 15 contractors; of these, all 15 are female, and of these 5 hold senior executive roles. Both the Company Secretary and the CFO of Genesis are females. There are no female directors on the Board.

1.6	A listed entity should: (a) have and disclose a process for periodically evaluating the performance of the board, its committees and individual directors; and (b) disclose, in relation to each reporting period, whether a performance evaluation was undertaken in the reporting period in accordance with that process.	Complying	The Directors undertake a process to periodically review the performance and effectiveness of the Board and individual directors. The Company Secretary oversees this process. As part of the review, each Director completes a questionnaire relating to the Board’s role, composition, procedures, practices and behaviour. The questionnaires are confidential. The Chairman leads a discussion of the questionnaire results with the Board as a whole, and provides feedback to individual Directors as necessary. Senior executives supply the Board with information in a form and timeframe, and of a quality that enables the Board to discharge its duties effectively. Directors are entitled to request additional information where they consider such information necessary to make informed decisions. A performance evaluation for the Directors did not take place in the reporting period.
1.7	A listed entity should: (a) have and disclose a process for periodically evaluating the performance of its senior executives; and (b) disclose, in relation to each reporting period, whether a performance evaluation was undertaken in the reporting period in accordance with that process	Complying	The Board, together with the Company’s Managing Director, evaluates the performance of the Group’s senior executives annually. The Board also reviews the Managing Director’s performance annually. A performance evaluation for the Group’s senior executives and Mr Eddie Pang, the Managing Director during the reporting period, has not taken place in the reporting period.
Principle 2 – Structure the Board to add value A listed entity should have a board of an appropriate size, composition, skills and commitment to enable it to discharge its duties effectively.
2.1	The board of a listed entity should: (a) have a nomination committee which: (1) has at least three members, a majority of whom are independent directors; and (2) is chaired by an independent director, and disclose: (3) the charter of the committee; (4) the members of the committee; and	Complying	The Board has not established a formal nomination committee, having regard to the size of the Company. The Board acknowledges that when the size and nature of the Company warrants the necessity of a formal nomination committee, such a committee will operate under a nomination committee charter which will be approved by the Board. Presently, the Board, as a whole, performs the function of a nomination committee. Where necessary, the Board seeks advice of external advisers in connection with the suitability of applicants for Board membership.

ASX Recommendation	ASX Recommendation	Status	Reference / Comment
	(5) as at the end of each reporting period, the number of times the committee met throughout the period and the individual attendances of the members at those meetings; or (b) if it does not have a nomination committee, disclose that fact and the processes it employs to address board succession issues and to ensure that the board has the appropriate balance of skills, knowledge, experience, independence and diversity to enable it to discharge its duties and responsibilities effectively.
2.2	A listed entity should have and disclose a board skills matrix setting out the mix of skills and diversity that the board currently has or is looking to achieve in its membership.	Non- Complying	Whilst the Company does not currently disclose a board skills matrix setting out the mix of skills of the Directors, the Company’s Annual Report sets out the skills, experience and expertise relevant to the position of director held by each director in office at the date of the annual report.
2.3	A listed entity should disclose: (a) the names of the directors considered by the board to be independent directors; (b) if a director has an interest, position, association or relationship of the type described in Box 2.3 but the board is of the opinion that it does not compromise the independence of the director, the nature of the interest, position, association or relationship in question and an explanation of why the board is of that opinion; and (c) the length of service of each director.	Complying	The Board has considered the circumstances of each Director and determined that Mr Deric Wee (Non-Executive Director) is an independent Director, on the basis that they are free from any interest, position, association or relationship that might influence, or reasonably be perceived to influence the independent exercise of their judgement. The Board has also assessed the circumstances of Directors Messrs Yau Young Lim, Chin Niap Mah & Kim Heng Lim and considers them to be non-independent Directors, due to their substantial shareholdings in, and/or associations with substantial shareholders of, Genesis. Mr Eddie Pang, Managing Director, and Mr James Patterson (Non- Executive Director) are not considered to be independent as they hold executive roles within the Company. In reaching the conclusions set out above, the Board considered the guidelines of materiality for the purpose of determining Director independence set out in the Board Charter and Box 2.3 of the Recommendations. The Board, will continually assesses whether there are any factors or considerations which may mean that a Director’s interest, position, association or relationship might influence, or reasonably be perceived to influence, the capacity of the Director to bring an independent judgement to bear on issues before the Board and to act in the best interests of the Company and its security holders generally.

ASX Recommendation	ASX Recommendation	Status	Reference / Comment
			The Corporations Act and Board meeting processes require Directors to advise the Board of any interest they have that has the potential to conflict with the interests of the Group, including any development that may impact their perceived or actual independence. If the Board determines that a Director’s status as an independent Director has changed, that determination will be disclosed and explained in a timely manner to the market. The length of service of each Director is set out in the Company’s 2017 Annual Report.
2.4	A majority of the board of a listed entity should be independent directors.	Non- Complying	The Board currently comprises 6 Directors, of which 1 is considered to be independent, being Non-Executive Director Mr Deric Wee.
2.5	The chair of the board of a listed entity should be an independent director and, in particular, should not be the same person as the CEO of the entity.	Non- Complying	The Chairman of the Board is Mr Eddie Pang, who also holds the role of Managing Director, and is accordingly not considered by the Board to be independent. The appointment of Mr Pang to the role of Chairman was considered by the Board to be appropriate in the absence of another suitable replacement Chairman. With regards to the size of the Company and the stage of its operations, the Board considers that the appointment of a separate Chairman at this stage will not be conducive to the Company’s need to conserve its cash reserves. The Company will, on a continuing basis and with reference to the Company’s cash flow position, reassess the requirement to appoint a Non-Executive Chairman.
2.6	A listed entity should have a program for inducting new directors and provide appropriate professional development opportunities for directors to develop and maintain the skills and knowledge needed to perform their role as directors effectively.	Complying	The Board is tasked with ensuring that an effective induction process is in place for newly appointed Directors, and the review of those induction procedures. In addition, incumbent Directors are provided with appropriate professional development opportunities to develop and maintain the skills and knowledge needed to perform their role as a director effectively. As Directors join the Board, they undertake an induction program, which includes the provision of information on the Company’s core values, key strategies, objectives, as well as its governance framework and operations. New Directors also meet with key senior management to gain a better appreciation of the Group’s services and capabilities. The Board receives ongoing governance updates as required, including in relation to recent legislative and regulatory changes and developments in corporate governance. All Directors have ongoing access to information on the Company’s operations and to the Group’s senior management. Each Director, at any time, is able to seek reasonable independent professional advice on any business-related matter at the expense of the Company. Directors also have access to adequate internal resources to seek any information from any officer or employee of the Group, or to require the attendance of management at meetings to enable them as Directors to fulfil their duties.

The Board does and will continue to seek these assurances prior to approving the annual financial statements for all half year and full year results.
4.3	A listed entity that has an AGM should ensure that its external auditor attends its AGM and is available to answer questions from security holders relevant to the audit.	Complying	Shareholders are encouraged to attend the Company’s Annual General Meeting, at which the Company endeavours to ensure the attendance of its auditors.
