PART 1: LETTER FROM THE CHAIR

Dear Shareholder,

On behalf of the directors of ikeGPS I am pleased to offer you the opportunity to participate in the Entitlement Offer (Offer) .

ikeGPS is undertaking this Offer alongside the recently announced $9.8m Institutional Placement. Under the Offer, Eligible Shareholders have the right to subscribe for 1 new ordinary share for every 7 existing shares held as at 7.00pm (NZST) / 5.00pm AEST on the Record Date of 30 July 2020, at an issue price of $0.68, (the same price as the Institutional Placement) without incurring brokerage or other transaction costs.

As disclosed to the market this month, one of the largest communications infrastructure companies in the United States has recently standardized on the ikeGPS platform for all pole-related 5G and fiber deployment processes. The funds raised will be used to scale up ikeGPS’s sales and implementation teams to support this customer and our work with other very large enterprise customers.

The funds raised will also provide funding capacity for potential growth opportunities. This follows our successful acquisition of certain assets of PowerLine Technology in September 2019, where we extended the ikeGPS platform offering with the addition of their structural analysis product.

Equity raising

The Offer will be conducted in two parts, an institutional component and a retail component. The institutional component of the Offer will be conducted on 28 July 2020.

The retail component of the Offer begins on 31 July 2020, and is open to all ikeGPS shareholders with a registered address in New Zealand on the Record Date of 7.00pm (NZST) / 5.00pm (AEST) Thursday 30 July 2020. To apply for your new Shares, you should complete and return the enclosed Entitlement and Acceptance Form or apply online at www.ikeshareoffer.co.nz, with accompanying payment allowing sufficient time for it to be received by the closing date of 5.00pm (NZST) / 3.00pm (AEST) on 11 August 2020. In addition to being able to take up their Entitlement, Eligible Retail Shareholders may also apply for additional New Shares not taken up by other Eligible Retail Shareholders up to a maximum of 100% above their prorata entitlement.

Further details about the Offer are included in this booklet. While participation in the Offer is optional, if Eligible Shareholders choose not to take up their full entitlement via the Offer (or are ineligible to do so), their proportionate shareholding in ikeGPS will be diluted.

On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank you for your continued support. Our goal is to become the standard for collecting, analysing and managing pole and overhead asset information for electric utilities and communications companies, and their engineering service providers. We look forward to continuing this journey with you as we pursue the next phase of growth.

Yours sincerely,

PART 4: DETAILS OF THE OFFER

THE OFFER

The Offer is an offer of New Shares to Eligible Shareholders under a pro rata accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer. Under the Offer, Eligible Shareholders are entitled to subscribe for 1 New Share for every 7 Existing Shares held at 7:00pm (NZST) or 5:00pm (AEST) on the Record Date. The New Shares will be the same class as, and will rank equally with, Existing Shares which are quoted on the NZX Main Board and ASX. It is a term of the Offer that ikeGPS will take any necessary steps to ensure that the New Shares are, immediately after issue, quoted on the NZX Main Board and ASX.

If you are an Eligible Shareholder you may take up all or some of your Entitlements or do nothing with all or some of your Entitlements. If you are an Eligible Shareholder and you do not take up all of your Entitlements, your current shareholding will be diluted as a result of the issue of New Shares.

The maximum number of New Shares being offered under the Offer is 14,615,027 New Shares (subject to rounding). ikeGPS will raise a total of approximately NZ$9.9 million through the Offer, which is fully underwritten by the Underwriter.

APPLICATION PRICE

The Application Price is NZ$0.68 (or the A$ Price) per New Share.

The A$ Price is A$0.635 per New Share. The A$ Price has been set by ikeGPS taking into account the NZ$:A$ exchange rate published by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand on its website for Monday 27 July 2020.

The Application Price must be paid in full on application. Payment of the Application Price must be made, for the Retail Entitlement Offer, together with a completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form delivered (either by mail, delivery or email) to the Registry in accordance with the instructions set out in the Entitlement and Acceptance Form or in accordance with the online application process.

If you elect to apply for New Shares using New Zealand Dollars, any New Shares issued to you will be issued on ikeGPS’s NZX branch register. If you elect to apply for New Shares using the A$ Price, any New Shares issued to you will be issued on ikeGPS’s ASX branch register.

ikeGPS may accept late applications and application monies, but it has no obligation to do so. ikeGPS may accept or reject (at its discretion) any Entitlement and Acceptance Form or online application which it considers is not completed correctly, and may correct any errors or omissions on any Entitlement and Acceptance Form or the online application.

An application may not be withdrawn without ikeGPS’s prior consent once submitted.

Application monies received will be held in a trust account with the Registry until the corresponding New Shares are allotted or the application monies are refunded. Interest earned on the application monies will be for the benefit, and remain the property, of ikeGPS and will be retained by ikeGPS whether or not the issue of New Shares takes place. Any refunds of application monies (without interest) will be made within 10 Business Days of allotment (or the date that the decision not to accept an application is made, as the case may be).

11

WITHDRAWAL

Subject to ikeGPS’s compliance with all applicable laws, ikeGPS reserves the right to withdraw the Offer at any time at its absolute discretion. If any Application is not accepted, all applicable application monies will be refunded, without interest, to the relevant Shareholder.

OVERVIEW OF THE OFFER

ikeGPS will raise a total of approximately NZ$9.9 million through the Offer, which is fully underwritten by the Underwriter. The maximum number of New Shares that are being offered under the Offer is 14,615,027 New Shares (subject to rounding).

The Offer comprises the following components:

  • the Institutional Entitlement Offer; and

  • the Retail Entitlement Offer,

in each case, as described in further detail below.

The Offer is an accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer, which is made pursuant to a class waiver by NZX granted 26 March 2020. This means that if you, as an Eligible Shareholder, do not take up your full Entitlement under the Offer, then your Entitlement will lapse, and you will receive no value for those lapsed Entitlements. Further, if you do not take up your Entitlement, you will have your percentage holding in ikeGPS reduced as a result of the Offer.

PURPOSE OF THE OFFER

Funds raised from the Offer will be used to:

  • increase ikeGPS’s sales, support and implementation teams to support recent customer wins and a growing sales pipeline; and

  • provide funding capacity for potential growth opportunities.

THE INSTITUTIONAL ENTITLEMENT OFFER

Overview of the Institutional Entitlement Offer

ikeGPS is offering Eligible Institutional Shareholders the opportunity to subscribe for 1 New Share for every 7 Existing Shares held as at 7:00pm (NZST) or 5:00pm (AEST) on the Record Date, at an Application Price of NZ$0.68 (or the A$ Price). This ratio and the Application Price are the same as for the Retail Entitlement Offer. The Lead Manager will seek to approach Eligible Institutional Shareholders, who may take up all, part or none of their Entitlements.

The Institutional Entitlement Offer opens at 9:30 am (NZST) or 7:30 am (AEST) on Tuesday 28 July 2020 and closes at 8.00pm (NZST) or 6.00pm (AEST) on Tuesday 28 July 2020 (subject to ikeGPS’s right to modify these dates or times).

Entitlements will not be quoted and cannot be traded on the NZX Main Board, the ASX or privately transferred.

Eligibility under the Institutional Entitlement Offer

The Institutional Entitlement Offer is only open to Eligible Institutional Shareholders. The Underwriter will determine the Shareholders who will be treated as Eligible Institutional Shareholders for the purpose of determining the Shareholders to whom an offer of New Shares will be made under the Institutional

12

Entitlement Offer. In exercising their discretion, the Underwriter may have regard to a number of matters, including legal and regulatory requirements and logistical and registry constraints. The Underwriter will determine which Shareholders will be treated as Ineligible Institutional Shareholders.

ikeGPS reserves the right to reject any application for New Shares under the Institutional Entitlement Offer that it considers comes from a person who is not an Eligible Institutional Shareholder.

Acceptance of Entitlement under the Institutional Entitlement Offer

The Lead Manager may seek to contact Eligible Institutional Shareholders to inform them of the terms and conditions of participation in the Institutional Entitlement Offer and seek confirmation of their Entitlements under the Offer. Application for New Shares by Eligible Institutional Shareholders (other than Approved US Shareholders and Approved US Investors) can only be made in accordance with that process.

Entitlements are not rounded up to a minimum holding. The number of New Shares to which an Eligible Institutional Shareholder is entitled under an Entitlement will, in the case of fractions of New Shares, be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Applications in excess of an Eligible Institutional Shareholder’s Entitlement will not be accepted.

New Shares attributable to the Institutional Entitlement Offer not taken up by Eligible Institutional Shareholders under the Institutional Entitlement Offer and the entitlements of certain Ineligible Institutional Shareholders may, subject to demand, be allocated to Institutional Investors who participate in the institutional placement or as ikeGPS and the Underwriter may otherwise agree.

Settlement of the Institutional Entitlement Offer

Settlement of the Institutional Entitlement Offer will occur on the Institutional Settlement Date in accordance with arrangements advised by the Lead Manager. Each investor remains responsible for ensuring its own compliance with the Takeovers Code and other applicable legislation.

THE RETAIL ENTITLEMENT OFFER

Overview of the Retail Entitlement Offer

ikeGPS is offering Eligible Retail Shareholders the opportunity to subscribe for 1 New Share for every 7 Existing Shares held as at 7.00pm (NZST) or 5.00pm (AEST) on the Record Date, at an Application Price of NZ$0.68 (or the A$ Price) per New Share. This ratio and the Application Price are the same as for the Institutional Entitlement Offer. Eligible Retail Shareholders are sent this Offer Document together with a personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form and may take up all, part or none of their Entitlements.

The Retail Entitlement Offer opens on Friday 31 July 2020 and closes at 5.00pm (NZST) or 3.00pm (AEST) on Tuesday 11 August 2020 (subject to ikeGPS’s right to modify these dates or times).

Entitlements will not be quoted and cannot be traded on the NZX Main Board, the ASX or privately transferred.

Eligibility under the Retail Entitlement Offer

The Retail Entitlement Offer is only open to Eligible Retail Shareholders.

The Retail Entitlement Offer does not constitute an offer to any person who is not an Eligible Retail Shareholder (including any Institutional Shareholder or an Ineligible Retail Shareholder). In particular, Shareholders who are in the United States or who are acting for the account or benefit of persons in the United States (to the extent such persons are acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States) are not eligible to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer.

Any person allocated New Shares under the Institutional Entitlement Offer does not have any entitlement to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer in respect of those New Shares.

13

ikeGPS reserves the right to reject any application for New Shares under the Retail Entitlement Offer that it considers comes from a person who is not an Eligible Retail Shareholder.

Acceptance of Entitlement under the Retail Entitlement Offer

The Entitlement and Acceptance Form distributed to Eligible Retail Shareholders with this Offer Document sets out an Eligible Retail Shareholder’s Entitlement to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer. Applications for New Shares by Eligible Retail Shareholders can only be made on an original Entitlement and Acceptance Form sent with this Offer Document or via an online application at www.ikeshareoffer.co.nz.

Entitlements are not rounded up to a minimum holding. The number of New Shares to which an Eligible Retail Shareholder is entitled under an Entitlement will, in the case of fractions of New Shares, be rounded down to the nearest whole number.

Eligible Retail Shareholders are not obliged to subscribe for any or all of the New Shares to which they are entitled under the Offer. They may take up some or all of their Entitlement or allow some or all of their Entitlement to lapse.

Any person outside New Zealand who takes up an Entitlement in the Retail Entitlement Offer (and therefore applies for New Shares) through a New Zealand resident nominee, and their nominee, will be deemed to have represented and warranted to ikeGPS that the Offer can be lawfully made to their nominee pursuant to this Offer Document. None of ikeGPS, the Lead Manager, the Co-Manager, the Underwriter, the Registrar or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, or advisers accept any liability or responsibility to determine whether a person is eligible to participate in this Offer.

Application to take up additional New Shares in Retail Entitlement Offer

New Shares that are attributable to Entitlements that are not taken up by Eligible Retail Shareholders (together with those attributable to Entitlements of Ineligible Retail Shareholders) will be offered to Eligible Retail Shareholders who take up their Entitlements in full.

Eligible Retail Shareholders who have taken up all of their Entitlements in full may apply for these additional New Shares up to a maximum of 100% of their Entitlements. Eligible Retail Shareholders apply for these additional New Shares by completing the appropriate section on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form, or as directed via the online application, and applying for additional New Shares at the Offer Price. Payment must be made for both your Entitlements and any additional New Shares for which you wish to apply.

If you elect to apply for your Entitlements using the A$ Price, then any additional New Shares that you are applying for must also be paid for in Australian dollars at the A$ price .

Allocations and any necessary scaling of additional New Shares applied for by Eligible Retail Shareholders who take up their Entitlements in full will be determined by ikeGPS and the Lead Manager.

NOMINEES

If you hold Existing Shares as nominee for more than one person, then you may (depending on the nature of each such person) be an Eligible Institutional Shareholder, Ineligible Institutional Shareholder, Eligible Retail Shareholder or Ineligible Retail Shareholder with regard to the Entitlement of each such person. Nominees who hold Shares on behalf of persons in the United States, or who are acting for the account or benefit of persons in the United States, are not eligible to participate on behalf of those persons.

Notice to nominees and custodians

The Retail Entitlement Offer is being made to all Eligible Retail Shareholders. Nominees with registered addresses in the eligible jurisdictions, irrespective of whether they participated under the Institutional Entitlement Offer, may also be able to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer in respect of some or all of

14

the beneficiaries on whose behalf they hold existing Shares, provided that the applicable beneficiary would satisfy the criteria for an Eligible Retail Shareholder.

Nominees and custodians who hold Shares as nominees or custodians will receive a letter from ikeGPS. Nominees and custodians should consider carefully the contents of that letter and note in particular that the Retail Entitlement Offer is not available to, and they must not purport to accept the Retail Entitlement Offer in respect of:

  • (a) beneficiaries on whose behalf they hold Existing Shares who would not satisfy the criteria for an Eligible Retail Shareholder;

  • (b) Eligible Institutional Shareholders who received an offer to participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer (whether they accepted their Entitlement or not);

  • (c) Ineligible Institutional Shareholders who were ineligible to participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer; or

  • (d) Shareholders who are not eligible under all applicable securities laws to receive an offer under the Retail Entitlement Offer.

In particular, nominees and custodians who hold Shares on behalf of persons in the United States, or who are acting for the account or benefit of persons in the United States, are not eligible to participate on behalf of those persons, and may not take up Entitlements on behalf of, or send any documents relating to the Retail Entitlement Offer to, any person in the United States.

ikeGPS is not required to determine whether or not any registered holder is acting as a nominee or the identity or residence of any beneficial owners of Shares or Entitlements. Where any holder is acting as a nominee for a foreign person, that holder, in dealing with its beneficiary will need to assess whether indirect participation by the beneficiary in the Retail Entitlement Offer is compatible with applicable foreign laws. ikeGPS is not able to advise on foreign laws.

OVERSEAS SHAREHOLDERS

The Offer is only open to Eligible Shareholders and persons that ikeGPS is satisfied can otherwise participate in the Offer in compliance with all applicable laws. ikeGPS has determined that it is unreasonable to extend the Retail Entitlement Offer to Ineligible Retail Shareholders and the Institutional Entitlement Offer to Ineligible Institutional Shareholders because of the small number of such Shareholders, the number and value of Shares that they hold and the cost of complying with the applicable regulations in jurisdictions outside New Zealand and Australia.

The distribution of this Offer Document (including an electronic copy) outside New Zealand or Australia may be restricted by law. Any failure to comply with such restrictions may contravene applicable securities law. ikeGPS and the Underwriter disclaim all liability to such persons.

Nominees and custodians may not distribute any part of this Offer Document, and may not permit any beneficial shareholder to participate in the Offer who is located, in the United States or any other country outside New Zealand and Australia except to institutional and professional investors listed in, and to the extent permitted under, this section.

UNITED STATES

This Offer Document does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, securities in the United States, and may not be distributed to any person in the United States. The Entitlements and the New Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the US Securities Act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in the United States except in transactions exempt from, or not subject to, the registration

15

  • ikeGPS has indemnified the Underwriter, its affiliates and related companies and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisers against certain losses sustained, suffered or incurred, arising out of or in connection with the placement, the Offer, the allotment of the New Shares or the Underwriting Agreement.

TERMS AND RANKING OF NEW SHARES

New Shares will rank equally with, and have the same voting rights, dividend rights and other entitlements as, Existing Shares in ikeGPS quoted on the NZX Main Board and ASX. Entitlements will not be quoted and cannot be traded on the NZX Main Board, ASX or privately transferred. It is a term of the Offer that ikeGPS will take any necessary steps to ensure that the New Shares are, immediately after issue, quoted on the NZX Main Board and ASX.

As part of ikeGPS’s growth plans, dividends are not currently paid. The Board did not declare any dividends in respect of the period ending 31 March 2020 and does not expect to declare any dividends during the period ending 31 March 2021.

NZX

The New Shares have been accepted for quotation by NZX and will be quoted on the NZX Main Board upon completion of allotment procedures. The NZX Main Board is a licensed market under the FMCA.
