Shareholders and their proxies should be aware that changes to the Corporations Act made in 2011 mean that:

  • if the proxy has 2 or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on the resolution, the proxy must not vote on a show of hands; and

  • if the proxy is the chair of the meeting at which the resolution is voted on, the proxy must vote on a poll, and must vote that way (ie as directed); and

  • if the proxy is not the chair, the proxy need not vote on the poll, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (ie as directed).

Transfer of non-chair proxy to chair in certain circumstances

Section 250BC of the Corporations Act provides that, if:

  • an appointment of a proxy specifies the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution at a meeting of the Company's members; and

  • the appointed proxy is not the chair of the meeting; and

  • at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded on the resolution; and

The effect of Resolution 3 will be to allow the Company to issue the Tranche 2 Shares pursuant to the Tranche 2 Placement during the period of 3 months after the Meeting (or a longer period, if allowed by ASX), without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity.

4.2 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1

5. RESOLUTION 4 – PARTICIPATION OF RELATED PARTY IN TRANCHE 2 PLACEMENT – ROGER STEINEPREIS

5.1 General

Pursuant to Resolution 3 the Company is seeking Shareholder approval for the Tranche 2 Placement.

Mr Roger Steinepreis wishes to participate in the Tranche 2 Placement.

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of up to 500,000 Shares to Roger Steinepreis (or his nominee) arising from the participation by Mr Roger Steinepreis in the Tranche 2 Placement ( Participation ).

5.2 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

For a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:

  • (a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and

  • (b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,

unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.

The Participation will result in the issue of Shares which constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mr Roger Steinepreis is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director.

The Directors (other than Mr Roger Steinepreis who has a material personal interest in the Resolution) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the Participation because the Shares will be issued to Mr Roger Steinepreis on the same terms as Shares issued to non-related party participants in the Tranche 2 Placement and as such the giving of the financial benefit is on arm’s length terms.

5.3 ASX Listing Rule 10.11

ASX Listing Rule 10.11 also requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a related party, or a person whose relationship with the entity or a related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that

12

3663-01/1537037_1

approval should be obtained unless an exception in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 applies.

As the Tranche 2 Placement involves the issue of Shares to a replated party of the Company, Shareholder approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.11 is required unless an exception applies. It is the view of the Directors that the exceptions set out in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply in the current circumstances.

5.4 Technical Information required by ASX Listing Rule 10.13

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the Participation:

  • (a) the Shares will be issued to Mr Roger Steinepreis (or his nominee);

  • (b) the maximum number of Shares to be issued is 500,000;

  • (c) the Shares will be issued no later than 1 month after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules);

  • (d) the issue price will be $0.04 per Share, being the same as all other Shares issued under the Tranche 2 Placement;

  • (e) the Shares issued will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares; and

  • (f) the funds raised will be used for the same purposes as all other funds raised under the Tranche 2 Placement as set out in section 4.2(f) of this Explanatory Statement.

Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the Participation as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of Shares to Mr Roger Steinepreis (or his nominee) will not be included in the use of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

6. RESOLUTIONS 5 TO 7 – ISSUE OF SHARES TO RELATED PARTIES

6.1 General

On 26 November 2015, the Company obtained shareholder approval for the issue of Shares to Darjeeling Pty Ltd ( Darjeeling ), an associate of Mr Timothy Moore, Ventnor Capital Pty Ltd ( Ventnor ), an associate of Mr Morgan Barron, and Steinepreis Paganin Lawyers and Consultants ( Steinepreis Paganin ), an associate of Mr Roger Steinepreis ( Related Parties ) in lieu of payment of outstanding amounts owed to the Related Parties. The Shares were not issued within the one month period required by ASX Listing Rule 10.11. As such, the Company is seeking to re-obtain Shareholder approval for the issue of Shares to the Related Parties on the terms set out below.

The Related Parties agreed that amounts owing from the Company for professional services already rendered will be partly settled through the issue of Shares upon the next capital raising event by the Company, with the number of Shares to be issued to be calculated by reference to the issue price of Shares pursuant to the capital raising, being $0.04 per Share.

Related Party Amount outstanding to be settled
in Shares
Darjeeling $1,200
Ventnor $23,431
Steinepreis Paganin $37,728

In order to support the Company, the Related Parties have agreed to discount the amounts owing to them from the Company for professional services provided and the issue of Shares pursuant to Resolutions 5 to 7 will satisfy outstanding amounts owing to Related Parties ( Related Party Shares ).

6.2 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.11

A summary of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.11 is set out in section 5.2 and 5.3 above.

The issue of the Related Party Shares constitutes giving a financial benefit and the Related Parties are related parties of the Company by virtue of being entities controlled by Directors.

It is the view of the Company that the exceptions set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply in the current circumstances. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought for the issue of Related Party Shares to the Related Parties.

3663-01/1537037_1

  • (k) Mr Tim Moore declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 5 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that Darjeeling is to be issued Related Party Shares in the Company should Resolution 5 be passed. However, in respect of Resolutions 6 and 7, Mr Moore recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the following reasons:

  • (i) the issue of the Shares is a reasonable and appropriate method to provide cost effective payment as the non-cash form of this benefit will allow the Company to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on its operations than it would if alternative cash forms of payment were given to the Related Parties; and

  • (ii) it is not considered that there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company or benefits foregone by the Company in issuing the Shares upon the terms proposed.

  • (l) Mr Morgan Barron declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 6 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that Ventnor is to be issued Related Party Shares in the Company should Resolution 6 be passed. However, in respect of Resolutions 5 and 7, Mr Barron recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the reasons set out in paragraph (k);

  • (m) Mr Roger Steinepreis declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 7 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that he is to be issued Related Party Shares in the Company should Resolution 7 be passed. However, in respect of Resolutions 5 and 6, Mr Steinepreis recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the reasons set out in paragraph (k);

  • (n) in forming their recommendations, each Director considered the experience of each other Related Party and the current market price of Shares; and

  • (o) the Board is not aware of any other information that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to allow them to make a decision whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass Resolutions 5 to 7.

Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required in order to issue the Related Party Shares to the Related Parties as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of Related Party Shares to the Related Parties will not be included in the 15% calculation of the Company’s annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

Instructions for completing Proxy Form

1.

( Appointing a proxy ): A Shareholder entitled to attend and cast a vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote on their behalf at the Meeting. If a Shareholder is entitled to cast 2 or more votes at the Meeting, the Shareholder may appoint a second proxy to attend and vote on their behalf at the Meeting. However, where both proxies attend the Meeting, voting may only be exercised on a poll. The appointment of a second proxy must be done on a separate copy of the Proxy Form. A Shareholder who appoints 2 proxies may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If a Shareholder appoints 2 proxies and the appointments do not specify the proportion or number of the Shareholder’s votes each proxy is appointed to exercise, each proxy may exercise one-half of the votes. Any fractions of votes resulting from the application of these principles will be disregarded. A duly appointed proxy need not be a Shareholder.

  1. ( Direction to vote ): A Shareholder may direct a proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite each item of business. The direction may specify the proportion or number of votes that the proxy may exercise by writing the percentage or number of Shares next to the box marked for the relevant item of business. Where a box is not marked the proxy may vote as they choose subject to the relevant laws. Where more than one box is marked on an item the vote will be invalid on that item.

3. ( Signing instructions ):

  • ( Individual ): Where the holding is in one name, the Shareholder must sign.

  • ( Joint holding ): Where the holding is in more than one name, all of the Shareholders should sign.

  • ( Power of attorney ): If you have not already provided the power of attorney with the registry, please attach a certified photocopy of the power of attorney to this Proxy Form when you return it.

  • ( Companies ): Where the company has a sole director who is also the sole company secretary, that person must sign. Where the company (pursuant to Section 204A of the Corporations Act) does not have a company secretary, a sole director can also sign alone. Otherwise, a director jointly with either another director or a company secretary must sign. Please sign in the appropriate place to indicate the office held. In addition, if a representative of a company is appointed pursuant to Section 250D of the Corporations Act to attend the Meeting, the documentation evidencing such appointment should be produced prior to admission to the Meeting. A form of a certificate evidencing the appointment may be obtained from the Company.

  • ( Attending the Meeting ): Completion of a Proxy Form will not prevent individual Shareholders from attending the Meeting in person if they wish. Where a Shareholder completes and lodges a valid Proxy Form and attends the Meeting in person, then the proxy’s authority to speak and vote for that Shareholder is suspended while the Shareholder is present at the Meeting.

  • ( Return of Proxy Form ): To vote by proxy, please complete and sign the enclosed Proxy Form and return by:

  • (a) post to Latitude Consolidated Limited, PO Box 902, West Perth, Western Australia, 6872; or

  • (b) facsimile to the Company on facsimile number +61 8 9482 0505;

so that it is received not less than 48 hours prior to commencement of the Meeting.

Proxy Forms received later than this time will be invalid.
