|---|---|
| Explanation | Article 47(b) of the Constitution requires that the Director who has held office for the longest period of time since his or her last election or appointment to that office must retire at each annual general meeting of the Company, or if two or more Directors have held office for the same period of time, the Director determined by lot.

All other Directors, being Andrew Plympton, Bob Xu and Howard Chen, were last elected to office at the Company’s 2016 Annual General Meeting, and accordingly have held office for the same period of time since their last election. The Directors have determined by lot that Mr Howard Chen will retire as a Director at the Company’s 2017 Annual General Meeting in accordance with Article 47(b) of the Constitution. Mr Chen, being eligible under Article 47(b), offers himself for re-election as a Director. |

4. APPROVAL OF ISSUE OF SHARES IN LIEU OF DIRECTOR FEES
Resolutions 3A and 3B: Approval of issue of shares in lieu of Director fees
| Resolutions 3A and 3B: Approval of issue of shares in lieu of Director fees | Resolutions 3A and 3B: Approval of issue of shares in lieu of Director fees |
|---|---|
| Explanation | The Company seeks shareholder approval for the issue of shares to Mr Howard Chen (Non-Executive Director) and Mr Mark Goulopoulos (former Non-Executive Director) or their nominee(s), in lieu of outstanding Director fees, without using the Company’s 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. As Non-Executive Director, Mr Chen is currently entitled to receive remuneration of $30,000 per annum. Mr Goulopoulos resigned as Non-Executive Director of the Company on 13 September 2017. During his tenure as Non-Executive Director, Mr Goulopoulos was similarly entitled to receive remuneration of $30,000 per annum. Given the stage of development of the Company, and the necessity for cash resources to be preserved and directed into the growth of the Company’s business, Mr Chen and Mr Goulopoulos had previously agreed to forego cash payment of 100% of their Non-Executive fees, and instead to be issued shares in lieu of these cash payments, subject to shareholder approval being obtained. During the period from 1 October 2016 to his resignation date of 13 September 2017, Mr Goulopoulos was entitled to receive aggregate Non-Executive fees of $28,614. In addition, as a result of fee reconciliation adjustments made during the year, outstanding Non-Executive fees of $1,645 and $2,040 are owing to Mr Chen and Mr Goulopoulos respectively, in relation to their period of service between of 1 July 2016 and 30 September 2016. The Company seeks shareholder approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.11 to issue fully paid ordinary shares in lieu of the outstanding Director fees owed by the Company to Mr Goulopoulos and Mr Chen, as detailed above. The shares the subject of Resolutions 3A and 3B will be issued at deemed prices which have been calculated on the basis of the volume weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company’s shares during each relevant quarter (or such lesser period) to which the outstanding fees relate. Specifically: 1. Shares to issued in lieu of fees outstanding for the 1 July 2016 – 30 September 2016 quarter will be issued at a deemed issue price of $0.1324, being the VWAP of the Company’s shares over the same quarter. 2. Shares to issued in lieu of fees accrued over the 1 October 2016 – 31 December 2016 quarter will be issued at a deemed issue price of $0.11421, being the VWAP of the Company’s shares over the same quarter. 3. Shares to issued in lieu of fees accrued over the 1 January 2017 – 31 March 2017 quarter will be issued at a deemed issue price of $0.08314, being the VWAP of the Company’s shares over the same quarter. 4. Shares to issued in lieu of fees accrued over the 1 April 2017 – 30 June 2017 quarter will be issued at a deemed issue price of $0.07081, being the VWAP of the Company’s shares over the same quarter. 5. Shares to issued to Mr Goulopoulos in lieu of fees accrued over the period of 1 July 2017 to his resignation date of 13 September 2017 will be issued at a deemed issue price of $0.11324, being the VWAP of the Company’s shares over the same period. 6. Shares to issued to Mr Chen in lieu of fees accrued over the 1 July 2017 – 30 September 2017 quarter will be issued at a deemed issue price of $0.10331, being theVWAPofthe Company’s shares overthe same quarter. |
Harris Technology Group Limited | Annual General Meeting 2017
8 | P a g e
| Subject to Resolutions 3A and 3B being passed: 7. Mr Goulopoulos will receive 331,195 fully paid ordinary shares in lieu of his accrued and outstanding fees (up to his resignation date of 13 September 2017) of $30,654 (Goulopoulos Shares); and 8. Mr Chen will receive 346,817 fully paid ordinary shares in lieu of his accrued and outstanding fees (up to 30 September 2017) of $ $31,645 (Chen Shares). If shareholder approval is received for Resolution 3A, and the Company issues the Goulopoulos Shares, there will be no outstanding fees owed by the Company to Mr Goulopoulos. If shareholder approval is received for Resolution 3B, and the Company issues the Chen Shares, there will be no outstanding fees owed by the Company to Mr Chen up until 30 September 2017. The Company will seek shareholder approval at the next general meeting following the 2017 Annual General Meeting with respect to any proposed issue of shares in lieu of Mr Chen’s Director fees that accrue after 30 September 2017. An alternative to the issue of the shares to Mr Goulopoulos and Mr Chen would be to make payment of their Directors’ fees in cash. Whilst the Board is mindful of the need to minimise dilution to shareholders, the Board considers this share-based payment arrangement to be an appropriate and responsible cash-free method of reducing corporate overhead expenditures, whilst concurrently aligning the interests of Mr Goulopoulos and Mr Chen with that of shareholders. The Board will continue to assess the suitability of this share-based payment arrangement with regard to the Company’s cash flow and general financial position. |
|
|---|---|
| ASX Listing Rules | ASX Listing Rule 10.11 requires a listed company to obtain shareholder approval prior to the issue of securities to a related party of the company. As a Director, Mr Chen is a related party of the Company by virtue of section 228(2) of the Corporations Act. As Mr Goulopoulos has been a Director of the Company during the 6-month period prior to the date of this Meeting, he is a related party of the Company by virtue of section 228(5) of the Corporations Act. Accordingly, Resolutions 3A and 3B seek shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.11 to allow issues of shares to related parties. If shareholder approval is given for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.11, approval will not be required under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, and the shares issued pursuant to Resolutions 3A and 3B will not deplete the Company’s 15% Placement Capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. |
| Approval not sought under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act |
For the purposes of Chapter 2E, Mr Goulopoulos and Mr Chen are related parties of the Company for the reasons described above. A “financial benefit” is defined in the Corporations Act in broad terms and expressly includes a public company issuing securities. The giving of a financial benefit to a related party of a public company is ordinarily prohibited by Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act. The exceptions to the general prohibition are where the benefit is given with the approval of shareholders or the benefit is given in one or more of the limited circumstances in which the giving of a financial benefit to a related party of a public company is permitted. One exception to the general rule is where the benefit constitutes “reasonable remuneration” in respect of the duties and responsibilities of the related party in the management of the public company. |

The share issues proposed under Resolutions 3A and 3B relate to the amounts of Directors’ fees referred to above, and are the result of the agreement of Mr Goulopoulos and Mr Chen to forego cash payments for their normal remuneration as Non-Executive Directors of the Company. Therefore, the shares proposed to be issue pursuant to Resolutions 3A and 3B do not constitute additional payments to them.
In the view of the Board, the issue of the shares to Mr Goulopoulos and Mr Chen in lieu of their foregone cash fees constitutes “reasonable remuneration” and, as the provision of such benefits is expressly permitted by section 211(1) of the Corporations Act, the Board does not consider that the Company is required to seek shareholder approval under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act in order to give them the financial benefit that is inherent in the issues of shares pursuant to Resolutions 3A and 3B.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A permits eligible small and mid-cap ASX-listed entities, subject to shareholder approval, to issue Equity Securities of up to an additional 10% of their issued capital by way of placements over a 12 month period, in addition to their ability to issue Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (10% Placement Capacity). The Company seeks shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A for the 10% Placement Capacity. The effect of this resolution will be to allow the Directors, subject to the conditions set out below, to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity without using the Company’s 15% Placement Capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. Resolution 4 is aspecial resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person or by proxy) at the meeting must be in favour of this resolution for it to be passed. |
| Eligibility | ASX-listed entities which have a market capitalisation of $300 million or less, and which are not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index will be considered eligible to seek shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. As at the date of this Notice, the Company, which has a market capitalisation of less than $300 million, is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index. Accordingly, the Company is considered eligible to seek shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. |
| Formula | The exact number of additional Equity Securities that the Company may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined by a formula set out ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 as follows: (A x D) - E Where: Ais the number of ordinary shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement: ▪ plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the previous 12 months under an exception in ASX ListingRule7.2; |
Harris Technology Group Limited | Annual General Meeting 2017
12 | P a g e
| ▪ plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the previous 12 months (there are presently no partly paid shares on issue in the Company); ▪ plus the number of shares issued in the previous 12 months with approval of shareholders under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid shares under the Company’s 15% Placement Capacity without shareholder approval; and ▪ less the number of shares cancelled in the previous 12 months. ‘A’ has the same meaning in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating an entity’s 15% Placement Capacity Dis 10%. Eis the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under ASX 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 ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4. |

| Conditions of issue under the 10% Placement Capacity |
There are a number of conditions applicable to the issue of Equity Securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A, including a limitation on the discount to prevailing market price at which they may be issued, and additional disclosure requirements. A summary of these conditions are as follows: (a) Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Capacity can only be in a class of securities already quoted. At the date of this Notice, the Company only has one class of securities which are quoted, being ordinary shares. (b) The issue price of each Equity Security issued under the 10% Placement Capacity must be no less than 75% of the volume weighted average market price (VWAP) for Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before either: 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 5 trading days of the date in paragraph (i), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued. |
|
| Period of validity of shareholder approval |
In the event that the Company obtains shareholder approval for Resolution 4, such approval will cease to be valid upon the earlier of: (a) 12 months after the date of the 2017 Annual General Meeting, being 20 November 2018; or (b) if applicable, the date on which the Company’s shareholders approve a change to the nature or scale of the Company’s activities under ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2, or the disposal of the Company’s main undertaking under ASX Listing Rule 11.2. (7.1A Placement Period) |
|
| Information to be provided to shareholders under ASX Listing Rule 7.3A | ||
| Minimum issue price |
The issue price of each Equity Security issued under the 10% Placement Capacity must be no less than 75% of the VWAP for Equity Securities in that class, calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before either: 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 5 trading days of the date in paragraph (i), the date on which the Securities are issued. |

Risk of dilution to If Resolution 4 is approved by shareholders, any issue of Equity Securities under the shareholders 10% Placement Capacity may present a risk of economic and voting dilution of existing shareholders, including the risk that:
-
the market price of the Company’s Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the relevant issue date than on the date of the 2017 Annual General Meeting; and
-
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.
-
The table below shows the potential dilution of existing shareholders under various scenarios on the basis of:
-
an issue price of $0.075 per share, which was the closing price of the Company’s shares on the ASX on 28 September 2017; and
-
the variable ‘A’ being calculated as the number of fully paid ordinary shares on issue on the date of this Notice, being 138,476,998.
The table also shows:
-
(a) two examples where variable ‘A’ has increased by 50% and 100%. The number of shares on issue in the Company may increase as a result of the issue of shares that do not require approval of shareholders (for example, pro-rata entitlement issues or scrip issues under takeover offers) or future placements of shares under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 of up to 15% of issued capital that are approved at future general meetings of shareholders; and
-
(b) two examples of where the issue price of shares has decreased by 50% and increased by 100%.
| VARIABLE ‘A’ | Dilution | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50% decrease in issue price $0.0375 |
Issue price $0.075 |
100% increase in issue price $0.15 |

(a) the Company issues the maximum number of shares available under the 10% Placement Capacity;
-
(b) the 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue;

-
(c) the table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular shareholder as a result of placements under the 10% Placement Capacity based on that shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting;
-
(d) the table shows only the effect of issues of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.1A and not under the 15% Placement Capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1;
-
(e) the issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Capacity consists only of shares; and
-
(f) the issue price is $0.075, being the closing price of the Company’s shares on the ASX on 28 September 2017.
-
Period of validity The Company will only issue and allot the Equity Securities during the 7.1A Placement Period. The approval under the Resolution 4 for the issue of the Equity Securities will cease to be valid in the event that shareholders approve a transaction under ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or ASX Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking).
-
Reason for issue The Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for the following purposes: of shares under 10% Placement (a) non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new assets, businesses or Capacity investments, in which event the Company will provide a valuation of the noncash consideration as required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.3; or
-
(b) cash consideration, the proceeds of which will be applied to fund the Company’s existing and future activities, appraisal of corporate opportunities, investment in new businesses (if any), the costs incurred in undertaking placement(s) of shares under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.A and for general working capital.
| The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under ASX Listing Rules | |
|---|---|
| 7.1A.4 and 3.10.5A upon issue of any Equity Securities. | |
| Allocation policy | The Company may not issue any or all of the Equity Securities for which approval is |
| given and may issue the Equity Securities progressively as the Company places the | |
| Equity Securities with investors. | |
| The Company’s allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at | |
| the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Capacity. The identity | |
| of the allottees of Equity Securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis | |
| having regard to factors such as: | |
| 1. fund raising options (and their viability) available to the Company at the | |
| relevant time; | |
| 2. the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company; | |
| 3. the financial situation of the Company and the urgency of the requirement | |
| for funds; and | |
| 4. advice from the Company’s corporate, financial, legal and broking advisers. | |
| The allottees under the 10% Placement Capacity have not been determined as at | |
| the date of this Notice. It is intended that the allottees will be suitable professional | |
| and sophisticated investors, and other investors not requiring a disclosure document | |
| under section 708 of the Corporations Act, that are known to the Company and/or | |
| introduced by third parties. | |
| The allottees may include existing substantial shareholders and/or new | |
| shareholders, but the allottees will not be related parties of the Company. |
