- the initial product manufacturing costs from a range of expected purchase orders resulting from the marketing and distribution arrangements with various distributors: and
- $\bullet$ additional product development.
The fund raising was proposed to be undertaken by way of:
- A 1 for 4 non-renounceable pro rata underwritten rights issue to all existing shareholders to raise \$454,348 at an issue price of 6 cents per share.
- ٠ The provision (subject to Shareholders approval) by Noble Investments Pty Ltd of up to \$800,000 of Convertible Notes.
The issue resulted in a shortfall of 5,907,090 shares representing a subscription by the underwriter of \$354,425.
To facilitate the issue of the Convertible Notes, on 2 August 2006 the Company executed a Convertible Note Deed with Noble Investments Pty Ltd. Implementation of the Convertible Note Deed and the issue of the Convertible Notes is subject to Shareholder approval.
Accordingly, this Notice of Meeting and Explanatory Statement seeks shareholder approval. The terms of the proposed issue of Convertible Notes are summarised in the Explanatory Statement.

Explanatory Statement
$11$ Introduction
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of Shareholders in relation to the business to be conducted at the Company's General Meeting.
The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide Shareholders with all information known to the Company which is material to a decision on how to vote on the Resolutions in the accompanying Notice of General Meeting.

On 26 May 2006, the Company announced that (subject to obtaining Shareholder approval) it proposed to issue eight (8) Convertible Notes to be issued at \$100,000 each to Noble.
On 2 August 2006 Noble and the Company executed a Convertible Note Deed (which is subject to Shareholder approval) for the issue of eight Convertible Notes and the issue of 800,000 Shares to Noble.
The following is a summary of the key terms and conditions of the Convertible Note Deed:

- (b) The First Note is convertible at a conversion price of 6 cents per Share equating to 1,666,667 Shares on or before the Maturity Date.
- The 7 Subsequent Notes may only be drawn down if and when the $(c)$ Company:
- sends a Convertible Note Certificate to Noble in respect of a $(i)$ Subsequent Note, at any time on or before the Maturity Date, stating the amount the Company wishes to draw down (subject to a

- executes a Deed of Charge in relation to the relevant Subsequent $(ii)$ Note and servicing such amount as is specified in the relevant Convertible Note Certificate.
- $(d)$ The Subsequent Notes are each convertible into that number of Shares equal to the Face Value of the relevant Subsequent Note divided by the higher of:
- $(i)$ \$0.05 per Share; or
- the three month volume weighted average price of the Company's $(ii)$ Shares, as traded on ASX and discounted by 20%.
The maximum number of Shares that may be issued if all Subsequent Notes are drawn down in full is 14,000,000 Shares.
- Interest accrues and is payable by the Company in respect of each (e) Convertible Note at a rate of 10% per annum payable quarterly in arrears. However, interest will cease to accrue and be pavable in respect of any Convertible Note on and from the date such Convertible Note is converted or redeemed.
- $(f)$ Noble may at its absolute discretion elect to convert each or any of the Convertible Notes to Shares at any time at the discretion of Noble on or before the Maturity Date.

- (iv) on any of the events of default under the Deed of Charge.
-
If Noble does not convert all or any of the Convertible Notes on or before $(h)$ the Maturity Date, the Company must redeem all outstanding Convertible Notes on the Maturity Date in cash and at their respective Face Value.
-
Shares issued pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Notes will rank $(i)$ equally in all respects with all existing Shares.
- In consideration of the issue of the 8 Convertible Notes to Noble the $\left($ i) Company will pay to Noble a fee of 6% of the maximum aggregate value of the Convertible Notes (being \$800,000) by way of the issue of 800,000 Shares to Noble at a nominal value of \$0.06 each.
- The Shares referred to in paragraph (i) above shall be issued to Noble $(k)$ irrespective of whether the Company draws down upon all or any of the Subsequent Notes.
- All shares will be admitted for quotation on ASX within 10 business days of $($ allotment.
$31$ General Meeting Resolutions
$3.1$ RESOLUTION 1 - ISSUE OF CONVERTIBLE NOTES
Resolution 1 is an ordinary resolution and provides for the issue of 8 Convertible Notes to Noble on the terms and conditions set out in Section 2 of this Explanatory Statement.
The issue of the Convertible Notes is to be approved by Shareholders under Item 7 of section 611 of the Corporations Act, as detailed in Section 4.2 of this Explanatory Statement.
The issue of the Convertible Notes pursuant to the Convertible Note Deed is subject to Shareholders passing Resolutions 1 and 2. The funds raised from the issue of the Convertible Notes will be used for the purpose of meeting the initial product manufacturing costs from a range of expected purchase orders resulting from the marketing and distribution arrangements with various distributors, and for additional product development.
$3.2$ RESOLUTION 2 - ISSUE OF SHARES TO NOBLE
Resolution 2 is an ordinary resolution and provides for the payment of 6% of the maximum aggregate value of the Convertible Notes (being \$800,000) by way of the issue of 800,000 Shares to Noble at the Series Issue Date at a nominal value of \$0.06 per Share.
Under the Convertible Note Deed a fee is to be paid to Noble in consideration for Noble entering into the Convertible Note Deed irrespective of whether the Convertible Notes are drawn down or not.
The Shares referred to in Resolution 2 will rank equally in all respects with existing Shares. The issue of the Convertible Notes is to be approved by Shareholders under Item 7 of section 611 of the Corporations Act, as noted in Section 4.2 of this Explanatory Statement.
The issue of the Shares to Noble pursuant to the Convertible Note Deed is subject to Shareholders passing Resolutions 1 and 2.
No funds will be raised from the issue of the Shares under Resolution 2.
4. Regulatory Requirements
$4.1$ LISTING RULE 7.1
Approval of the issue of the Shares and the Convertible Notes to Noble under Resolutions 1 and 2 is not required for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (which limits the amount of securities a listed company may issue without shareholder approval) because of Exception 16 of Listing Rule 7.2.
$4.2$ SECTION 611 OF THE CORPORATIONS ACT 2001
Resolutions 1 and 2 seek Shareholder approval under Item 7 of section 611 of the Corporations Act for:
- $(a)$ the acquisition by Noble of a relevant interest in Shares upon conversion of the Convertible Notes; and
- $(b)$ the acquisition by Noble of a relevant interest in the specified number of Shares.
Except as provided by Chapter 6 of the Corporations Act, section 606(1) of the Corporations Act prohibits a person from acquiring shares in a company if, after acquisition, that person or any other person would have a relevant interest or voting power in excess of 20% of the voting shares in the Company.
Item 7 of section 611 of the Corporations Act provides that section 606(1) of the Corporations Act does not apply to an acquisition of a relevant interest in the voting shares in a company if the company has agreed to the acquisition by resolution passed at a general meeting at which no votes are cast in relation to the resolution by the person to whom the shares are to be issued or by an associate of that person.
Under section 610 of the Corporations Act, a person's voting power is defined as the percentage of the total voting shares in the Company held by the person and the person's associates.
The Convertible Notes and the 800,000 Shares to be issued to Noble under Resolutions 1 and 2 will result in Noble and its Associates having a relevant interest in an aggregate of more than 20% of the voting Shares in the Company.
Accordingly the Company is seeking Shareholder approval under Item 7 of Section 611 of the Corporations Act for the issue of the Convertible Notes and the 800,000 Shares to Noble.
As set out in the Voting Exclusion Statements in the Notice of General Meeting, Noble and its Associates are precluded from voting on Resolutions 1 and 2.
$4.2.1$ ASIC Policy Statement 74
The following information is included in accordance with the requirements of Item 7 of Section 611 of the Corporations Act and ASIC Policy Statement 74 to the extent it applies pursuant to ASIC Policy Statement 159.
$\mathbf{1}$ Identity of the Person who will hold a relevant interest in the securities to be issued.
If Resolutions 1 and 2 are passed, the following new Shares are proposed to be issued to Noble.
| Noble | Maximum Shares to be issued |
|---|---|
| UResolution 1 | |
| First Note* | 1,666,667 |
| Subsequent Notes* | 14,000,000 |
| Resolution 2 | |
| Fee | 800,000 |
| TOTAL | 16,466.667 |
*Note: the maximum number of Shares to be issued under the Convertible Notes is based on the assumption that the Company will draw down (to the maximum value) all of the Subsequent Notes and that Noble will elect to convert all of the Convertible Notes on or before the Maturity Date and at the maximum conversion rate under the terms of the Convertible Note Deed.
$\mathcal{L}$ Impact of the Transactions on the Voting Power in the Company's Shares
(a) The Company's capital structure
The capital structure of the Company before the passing of Resolutions 1 and 2 will consist of approximately 38,316,491 Shares of which Noble and its Associates will hold 7.251.438 Shares.
If all of the Subsequent Notes are drawn down to the maximum aggregate value and are all fully converted into Shares (at the maximum conversion rate). the capital structure of the Company will consist of approximately 54,783,158 Shares of which Noble and its Associates will hold 23,718,105 Shares.
(b) Current voting power of Noble
As at the date of the Notice of General Meeting, Noble and its Associates have a relevant interest in Shares in the Company and their voting power is 18.93%
(c) Maximum voting power of Noble and its Associates after the conversion of all of the Convertible Notes into Shares and the issue of 800,000 Shares
The maximum voting power of Noble and its Associates should Noble convert all of the Convertible Notes into the maximum number of Shares under Resolution 1 and upon the issue of the Shares under Resolution 2 and all other Shares in which Noble and its Associates have a relevant interest, expressed as a percentage of the total number of votes attached to all the issued voting Shares in the capital of the Company, will be as follows:
| Noble and Associates | Number of Shares in which have a relevant interest |
% voting power |
|---|---|---|
| before General Interest |
7,251,438 | 18.93 |
| Meeting | ||
| Fee | 800,000 | 20.58 |
| First Note fully converted | 1,666,667 | 23.82 |
| All Subsequent Notes fully | 14,000,000 | 43.29 |
| converted | ||
| Total | 23,718,105 | 43.29 |
(d) Voting power of Noble and its Associates should Noble elect to only convert the First Note into Shares
The voting power of Noble and its Associates, if Noble only converts the First Note into Shares under Resolution 1 and the Shares under Resolution 2 are issued, will be as follows:
| Number of Shares which have a relevant interest |
% voting power |
|
|---|---|---|
| General before Interest Meeting |
7,251,438 | 18.93 |
| Fee | 800,000 | 20.58 |
| First Note converted | 1,666,667 | 23.82 |
| Гotal | 9,718,105 | 23.82 |
(e) Voting power of Noble and its Associates should Noble not elect to convert any Convertible Notes into Shares
The voting power of Noble and its Associates, should Noble not convert any of the Convertible Notes into Shares under Resolution 1 but the Company issues the Shares under Resolution 2, will be as follows:
| Number of Shares which have a relevant interest |
$%$ voting power |
|
|---|---|---|
| Fee | 800,000 | 20.58 |
| ⊟nterest Meeting |
before | General | 7,251,438 | 18.93 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total | 8,051,438 | 20.58 |
(f) Range of relevant interests and voting power of Noble and its Associates
The following table sets out the minimum and maximum numbers of Shares in which Noble and its Associates will have a relevant interest (if the Subsequent Notes are all drawn down to the maximum aggregate value and are all converted at the maximum conversion rate) and their minimum and maximum voting power as a result of the implementation of Resolutions 1 and 2.
| Minimum and Maximum number of Shares in which have a relevant interest |
Minimum and maximum % voting power |
|
|---|---|---|
| Noble and its Associates | 8,051,438 - 23,718,105 | $20.58 - 43.29$ |
These numbers and percentages assume that the Company does not issue any other Shares to any person.
3 Intentions as to the Future of the Company
The Company is advised that Noble has no:
- intention to change the business of the Company or future employment of (a) present employees.
- intention to inject further capital into the Company beyond what is $(b)$ contemplated in the Convertible Note Deed.
- plans to transfer assets between the Company itself or any person $(c)$ associated with them or any intention to otherwise re-deploy the fixed assets of the Company.
- $(d)$ plans to change significantly the financial or dividend policies of the Company.
$\overline{4}$ Reasons for the Proposed Allotment
The maximum aggregate funds raised from the issue of the Convertible Notes, (assuming all of the Subsequent Notes are drawn down to their maximum aggregate value) will, be applied to fund the initial product manufacturing against a range of expected purchase orders and for additional product development expenditure. In the meantime, it represents a standby secured note facility with equity conversion rights available for use by the Company.
Directors' Recommendation
All of the Directors recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolutions contemplated in the Notice of General Meeting.
Financial and Dividend Policy
There is no immediate intention to change the financial or dividend policies of the Company.
Proposal is fair and reasonable
The Directors have commissioned Pendragon Capital (a suitably qualified independent expert) to prepare a report on whether the proposed issue of the Convertible Notes and Shares under Resolutions 1 and 2 is fair and reasonable to the non-associated Shareholders of the Company. That report is attached to this Explanatory Memorandum. Shareholders are urged to read that report in detail.
Pendragon Capital has concluded that the proposed issue of the Convertible Notes and Shares under Resolutions 1 and 2 is fair and reasonable to the non-associated Shareholders of the Company.
5. Advantages and Disadvantages of the Issue
The Directors are of the view that the following non-exhaustive list of advantages may be relevant to a Shareholder's decision on how to vote on the proposed resolutions:
$(a)$ Advantages
$(i)$ Flexible Facility
Other than for the first note draw down of \$100,000 there is no requirement or compulsion for the Company to draw down the remaining notes.
The election by the Company to draw down the remainder is entirely at its option. Accordingly, the issue of Convertible Notes to Noble represents a very flexible facility package for the Company.
$(ii)$ Further Notes May Not be Drawn
The Directors of the Company are encouraged as to the business prospects for the Company, which if realised and reflected in the market rating for the Company's shares will improve the capital raising pricing and options available to the Company particularly in the United States market. In these circumstances the Company may elect to raise ordinary share capital in the United States rather than draw down further notes. In the meantime it represents an attractive flexible alternative source of capital.
In addition, if the Company's products are well received in the market it should result in significant cash flow positive trading, again removing the need to draw down further notes.
(iii) Conversion Terms Market Related
If the Subsequent Notes are drawn down to their maximum value, the terms of conversion to Shares will be the higher of \$0.05 each or the 3 month volume weighted price of the Shares as traded on ASX and discounted by 20%. Accordingly, the dilution of equity effect for existing Shareholders would not be appreciably different to what may arise pursuant to a market placement or other form of capital raising at some future time.
$(iv)$ Brainytoys able to Confidently Complete Initial Business Plan
The availability of the substantial facility enables the Company and its management to operate with confidence in initiating completion of its final product development, marketing, and distribution programme without compromises that undermine the intended strategies.
Existing Shareholders Not Required to Provide Further Capital $(v)$
The shortfall arising from the recent 1 for 4 rights issue clearly demonstrates lack of interest from the Shareholder base in further funding. This flexible facility avoids the need to ask Shareholders to contribute further capital.
$(b)$ Disadvantages and Risks
The Directors are of the view that the following non-exhaustive list of disadvantages may be relevant to a Shareholder's decision on how to vote on the proposed Resolutions.
$(i)$ Possible Transfer of Control to Noble
The Convertible Notes and the Shares to be issued to Noble may result in Noble and/or its Associates obtaining a controlling interest of up to 43.29% of the Company's share capital assuming full conversion at the maximum conversion rate per Share.
Issue of Secured Notes $(ii)$
Given the lack of recurrent cash flow today it is obviously desirable for the Company to fund its business plan without resorting to secured borrowings.
Notwithstanding this, the Convertible Notes have a 4 year term and are likely to be converted to Shares assuming they are drawn down to their maximum aggregate value.
6. Risks
No Equal Opportunity to Participate in the Notes Issue
Shareholders are not being afforded an equal opportunity to participate in the Convertible Note issue. However, in light of the poor participation result arising out of the recent rights issue it is reasonable to conclude that there is a limited appetite for participation in such an issue.
Risk of Draw Down Option Notice being Dishonored
Noble is not required to deposit the Convertible Note monies that may be the subject of a Convertible Note Certificate. However, the Directors have made reasonable enquiries to seek satisfaction in relation to its bona fides and financial capacity to honour the arrangements.
$71$ Independent Expert's Report
The Independent Expert's Report sets out a detailed examination of the proposed issue of Convertible Notes and Shares to Noble contemplated by Resolutions 1 and 2 to enable Shareholders to assess the merits of and decide whether to approve, those Resolutions. To the extent appropriate, the Independent Expert's Report sets out further information with respect to the proposed Noble transaction and concludes that the issue of the Convertible Notes and Shares to Noble is fair and reasonable to the non-associated shareholders of the Company.
Shareholders are urged to carefully read the Independent Expert's Report attached to the Schedule to understand the scope of the report, the methodology of the valuation and the sources of information used and assumptions made in preparing the report.
