EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Purpose of Information

This Explanatory Statement (" Statement ") accompanies and forms part of the Company’s Notice of Annual General Meeting (“ Notice ”) for the 2023 Annual General Meeting (“ Meeting ”).

The Notice incorporates, and should be read together, with this Statement.

Receipt and consideration of Accounts & Reports

A copy of the Annual Report for the financial year ending 30 June 2023 (which incorporates the Company’s financial report, reports of the Directors (including the Remuneration Report) and the auditor’s report) is available on the Company’s website https://www.inviongroup.com/ or via the Company’s announcement platform on ASX. Alternatively, you may obtain a copy free of charge in hard copy form by contacting the Company by phone at (03) 9692 7222, and you may request that this occurs on a standing basis for future years. There is no requirement for Shareholders to approve the Annual Report.

Shareholders will be given reasonable opportunity at the Meeting to ask questions and make comments on the Financial Report, the Directors’ Report, and the Auditor’s Report. Questions for the Company’s auditors relating to the conduct of the audit, preparation and contents of the audit report, accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of its financial statements, and the independence of the auditors in relation to the conduct of the audit, must be submitted no later than 5 business days before the Meeting to the Company Secretary at the Company’s registered office or by email to [email protected].

Except, as set out in Resolution 1, no resolution is required on these reports.

Resolution 1: Adoption of Remuneration Report

Background

Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act requires that a resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report must be put to the vote at the Annual General Meeting. The vote on this Resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company.

The Remuneration Report is set out in the Directors’ Report in the Company’s June 2023 Annual Report. The Remuneration Report sets out the Company’s remuneration arrangements for the Directors and senior management of the Company.

In accordance with Section 250SA of the Corporations Act, Shareholders will be provided with a reasonable opportunity to ask questions concerning, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report at the Annual General Meeting.

In accordance with Division 9 of Part 2G.2 of the Corporations Act, if twenty five (25%) per cent or more of votes that are cast are voted against the adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive Annual General Meetings, Shareholders will be required to vote at the second of those Annual General Meetings on a resolution (a “ spill resolution ”) that another meeting be held within 90 days at which all of the Company’s Directors (other than the Managing Director) must go up for re-election.

It is noted that at the Company’s last Annual General Meeting, the votes cast against the Remuneration Report represented less than twenty-five (25%) per cent of the total votes cast on that resolution and accordingly, a spill resolution will not under any circumstances be required for this Meeting.

The Directors will consider the outcome of the vote and comments made by Shareholders on the Remuneration Report at the Meeting when reviewing the Company’s remuneration policies.

Directors Recommendation

Noting that each Director has a personal interest in their own remuneration from the Company (as such interests are described in the Remuneration Report) and, as described in the voting exclusions on this resolution (set out in the Notice of AGM), that each Director (or any Closely Related Party of a Director) is excluded from voting their shares on this Resolution, the Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1 to adopt the Remuneration Report.

Voting Exclusions

Refer to Note 7 for voting exclusions on this Resolution.

Resolution 2: Re-election of Mr Alistair Bennallack as a Director of the Company

Background

In accordance with the Constitution, Mr Alistair Bennallack retires from the Board and being eligible, offers himself for re-election as a Director of the Company.

Mr Bennallack has over 30 years’ experience in business management and finance, strategic development, risk and compliance, international business, leadership and relationship management.

Mr Bennallack is currently the Group Chief Operating Officer and Group Chief Financial Officer of Village Roadshow Pty Ltd. in addition Mr Bennallack is the Chief Executive Officer of Village Roadshow Theme Park Asia division, with primary executive responsibility for conceptualising, executing and delivering Village Roadshow’s expansion into China and Asia.

He is a former member of the Village Roadshow Ltd Executive Committee, current member of the Village Roadshow Theme Parks Executive Committee and current member of all Village Roadshow Pty Ltd’s Management and Risk Committees.

His previous roles have included Chief Financial Officer of Village Roadshow Ltd and General Manager Business Affairs of Village Roadshow Corporation Pty Ltd (controlling shareholder of Village Roadshow Ltd).

Mr Bennallack is a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia and has a Graduate Diploma in Wine Business. He is also the former President and Board Member of The Gawler Foundation.

Directors Recommendations

The Board (with Mr Alistair Bennallack abstaining) recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of the reelection of Mr Alistair Bennallack.

Voting Exclusions

Refer to Note 7 for voting exclusions on this Resolution.

SPECIAL BUSINESS

Resolution 3: Approval of 10% Placement Facility

Background

Broadly speaking and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that the Company can issue without the approval of the Shareholders over any 12-month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary shares it had on issue at the start of that period.

Listing Rule 7.1A enables an eligible entity to issue up to 10% of its issued share capital through placements over a 12-month period after the Annual General Meeting ( 10% Placement Facility ). An eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. The Company is, at the date of this Notice, an eligible entity. Note however that if, on the date of this Meeting, the market capitalisation of the Company exceeds $300 million or the Company has been included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index, then this Resolution 3 will no longer be effective and will be withdrawn.

The Company is seeking shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to have the ability, if required, to issue equity securities under the 10% Placement Facility. The effect of Resolution is to allow the Directors to issue equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the 10% Placement Period (as defined below) without, or in addition to, using the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Placement Period

Shareholder approval of the 10% Placement Facility under Listing Rule 7.1A commences on the date of this Annual General Meeting and expires on the first to occur of the following:

  • i. the date that is 12 months after the date of this Annual General Meeting;

  • ii. the time and date of the Company’s next Annual General Meeting; or

  • iii. the time and date of the approval by shareholders of a transaction under Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking),

  • ( 10% Placement Period )

The Company will only issue and allot the equity securities approved under the 10% Placement Facility during the 10% Placement Period.

Outcome of this Resolution

If Shareholders approve this Resolution:

  • the number of equity securities permitted to be issued under the 10% Placement Facility will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (see below); and

  • the Company will be able to issue equity securities up to the combined 25% limits in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A without further shareholder approval.

If this Resolution 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 the 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.

Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility

The maximum number of equity securities that may be issued by the Company under the 10% Placement Facility pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A2 is calculated in accordance with the following formula:

(A x D) – E

  • A is the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue 12 months to which qualifying issues are added and from which cancelled fully paid ordinary securities are subtracted as per Listing Rule 7.1.

  • D is 10%

  • E is the number of equity securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in 12 months before the date of the issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of shareholders under Listing Rule 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 actual number of equity securities that the Company will have capacity to issue under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated at the date of issue on the equity securities in accordance with the formula stated above.

Type and number of equity securities

Any equity securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility must be in the same class as an existing quoted class of equity securities of the Company. The Company, as at the date of the Notice, has on issue one class of quoted securities being Shares, as follows:

  • 6,421,632,206 Shares

Minimum issue price and cash consideration

The equity securities will be issued at an issue price of not less than 75% of the VWAP for the Company’s equity securities in the same class calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • i. the date on which the price at which the equity securities are to be issued is agreed by the Company and the recipient of the securities; or

  • ii. if the equity securities are not issued within 10 trading days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the equity securities are issued.

Purpose of the funds raised

The purposes for which the funds raised by an issue under the 10% Placement Facility may be used by the Company include:

  • i. consideration for the acquisition(s) of the new assets and investments, including the expenses associated with such acquisition(s); and

  • ii. continued expenditure on the Company’s current business and/or general working capital.

Risk of economic and voting dilution

If this Resolution is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues equity securities under the 10% Placement Facility, the existing Shareholders’ voting power in the Company will be diluted as shown in the dilution table below.

Shareholders may be exposed to economic risk and voting dilution, including the following:

  • i. the market price for the Company’s equity securities may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the equity securities than on the date of this Annual General Meeting; 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 the equity securities.

The dilution table provided below shows the hypothetical dilution of existing Shareholders on the basis of the market price of Shares as at 13 October 2023 ( Current Share Price ) and the current number of Shares for variable “A” calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A(2) as at the date of this Notice.

The dilution table also shows:

  • two examples where variable “A” has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable “A” is based on the number of Shares the Company has on issue. The number of Shares on issue may increase as a result of issues of ordinary securities 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

  • two examples of where the issue price of Shares has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.

This dilution table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

  • The Company issues the maximum number of equity securities available under the 10% Placement Facility;

  • No Options are exercised into Shares before the date of the issue of the equity securities;

  • The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.

  • The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Facility, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Annual General Meeting.

  • The 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.

  • The issue of equity securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares.

  • The Current Share Price is $0.005 (0.50 cents), being the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 13 October 2023.

Allocation Policy

The Company’s allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Facility. The identity of the allottees of equity securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to relevant factors including, but not limited to, the following:

  • (i) the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company, including but not limited to, rights issues or other issues in which existing security holders can participate;

  • (ii) the effect of the issue of the equity securities on the control of the Company;

  • (iii) the financial situation and solvency of the Company; and

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

The allottees under the 10% Placement Facility have not been determined as at the date of this Notice but may include existing substantial Shareholders and/or new Shareholders who are not related parties or associates of a related party of the Company.

Previous issues

The Company:

  • (i) has not issued, nor agreed to issue, any equity securities under Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12-month period preceding the date of the Meeting; and

  • (ii) had not agreed, before the 12-month period referred to in the preceding paragraph, to issue any equity securities under rule 7.1A.2 where such securities remain unissued as at the date of the Meeting.

Special Resolution

The ability to issue equity securities under the 10% Placement Facility is subject to shareholder approval by way of a special resolution. This means it requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present or represented and eligible to vote.

Directors Recommendations

The Directors of the Company believe that Resolution 3 is in the best interests of the Company and unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.
