Agenda

Ordinary Business

1. Resolution 1 – Ratification of prior issue of April Placement Shares

Background

On 19 April 2024 ( April Issue Date ), the Company issued 25,362,920 fully paid ordinary shares ( April Placement Shares ) at an issue price of $0.018 pursuant to a placement to professional, sophisticated and institutional investors ( April Placement ). Of the April Placement Shares, 5,176,866 fully paid ordinary shares were issued under Listing Rule 7.1 and 20,186,054 fully paid ordinary shares were issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.

As part of the April Placement, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, the Company also proposed to issue:

  • (a) up to 25,362,920 free-attaching Options, each being exercisable at $0.023 (2.3 cents) per Option and expiring 2 years from their date of issue and otherwise on the terms set out in Appendix A ( April Options ), on the basis of 1 April Option for every 1 Share issued under the April Placement; and

  • (b) 5,833,334 Shares at an issue price of $0.018 (1.8 cents) to Directors of the Company (or their nominees), to raise approximately $105,000 (before costs) ( Director Placement ) as well as 5,833,334 Options on the same terms as the April Options ( Director Placement Options ), being on the basis of 1 Director 1 Placement Option for every 1 Share issued under the Director Placement.

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

At the Company’s AGM held on 29 November 2023, the Company sought and obtained approval of its Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1A to increase this 15% limit by an extra 10% to 25%.

The issue of April Placement Shares did not fit within any of the exceptions (to Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A) and, as it has not been approved by the Company’s Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the expanded 25% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A, reducing the Company’s capacity to

issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12 month period following the April Issue Date (noting that the extra 10% under Listing Rule 7.1A will expire unless re-approved by the Company’s Shareholders on an annual basis).

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of Equity Securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the Company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

A note to Listing Rule 7.4 also provides that an issue made in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A can be approved subsequently under Listing Rule 7.4 and, if it is, the issue will then be excluded from variable “E” in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (which means that the Company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A is not reduced).

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1.

To this end, this Resolution seeks Shareholder approval to subsequently approve the issue of the April Placement Shares for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4.

If this Resolution is passed, the issue of April Placement Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 25% capacity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rules 7.1 (15%) and 7.1A (10%), effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the April Issue Date.

If this Resolution is not passed, the issue of April Placement Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 25% capacity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rules 7.1 (15%) and 7.1A (10%), effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the April Issue Date.

2. Resolution 2 – Approval of issue of April Placement Options

Background

Resolution 2 seeks the approval of Shareholders for the proposed issue of up to 25,362,920 April Options as part of the April Placement, as referred to in the Explanatory Statement for Resolution 1.

Listing Rule 7.1

Please refer to the Explanatory Statement for Resolution 1 for a summary of Listing Rule 7.1.

The proposed issue of the April Options ( April Options Issue ) does not fit within any of the exceptions (to Listing Rule 7.1) and exceeds the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.

To this end, this Resolution seeks Shareholder approval to approve the April Options Issue for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the April Options Issue. Additionally, the issue of the April Options will be excluded in calculating the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the April Options.

7.3.6 The April Options are being issued by the Company as part of the capital
raising announced to market on 12 April 2024. While the April Options are
being issued for nil consideration and therefore no funds will be raised by the
issue of the April Options, upon the exercise of any April Options, the
Company will receive proceeds of $0.023 (2.3 cents) for each April Option
exercised. The Company intends to use any funds raised upon the exercise
of the April Options for general working capital purposes.
7.3.7 The April Options will not be issued pursuant to an agreement.
7.3.8 The April Options will not be issued under, or to fund, a reverse takeover.

Directors’ Recommendation

The Board of Directors recommend Shareholders vote for this Resolution.

3. Resolution 3 – Approval of issue of securities to Mr Alex Aleksic, Director of the Company

Background

As part of the April Placement referred to in the Explanatory Statement for Resolution 1, subject to receiving Shareholder approval, Mr Alex Aleksic, a Director of the Company, has agreed to subscribe for 2,777,778 Shares at an issue price of $0.018 (1.8 cents) per Share, being on the same terms as the April Placement, to raise a total of $50,000 (before costs) ( Aleksic Shares ). Subject to receiving Shareholder approval and consistent with the terms of the April Placement, the Company also proposes to issue 2,777,778 free-attaching Director Placement Options to Mr Aleksic (or his nominees) ( Aleksic Options ), being on the basis of 1 free-attaching Option for every 1 Aleksic Share subscribed by Mr Aleksic.

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits the Company from giving a financial benefit to a related party of the Company unless either:

  • (a) the giving of the financial benefit falls within one of the exceptions to the provisions; or

  • (b) Shareholder approval is obtained prior to the giving of the financial benefit.

Forbidden Foods Limited | General Meeting – Notice of Meeting and Explanatory Statement

19

The proposed issue of the Aleksic Shares and Aleksic Options ( Aleksic Securities ) constitutes the giving of a financial benefit for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

A “related party” for the purposes of the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules is widely defined and includes a director of a public company, their spouse, parent or child, or an entity controlled by any of them. The definition of “related party” also includes a person whom there is reasonable grounds to believe will become a “related party” of a public company.

The non-conflicted Directors of the Company (being Mr Albert Cheok, Mr Nathan Quailey, Mr Marcus Brown and Ms Katie Eshuys) carefully considered the proposed issue of the Aleksic Securities and formed the view that the giving of this financial benefit to Alex Aleksic is on arm’s length terms, as the securities are proposed to be issued on the same terms as offered to nonrelated parties of the Company under the April Placement announced to market on 12 April 2024.

Accordingly, the non-conflicted Directors of the Company believe that the proposed issue of the Aleksic Securities falls within the “arm’s length terms” exception as set out in section 210 of the Corporations Act, and the Company relies on this exception from the requirement to obtain Shareholder approval under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act for the issue of the Aleksic Securities.

Listing Rule 10.11

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed company must not issue or agree to issue Equity Securities to:

  • 10.11.1 a related party; 10.11.2 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the company;

  • 10.11.3 a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (10%+) holder in the company and who has nominated a director to the board of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so;

  • 10.11.4 an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3; or 10.11.5 a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders,

unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.

The issue of the Aleksic Securities falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of the Company’s Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.

Resolution 3 seeks the required shareholder approval for the issue of the Aleksic Securities under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Aleksic Securities and the issue of the Aleksic Securities will be excluded from the calculation of the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 (pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 14).

If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Aleksic Securities.

Information required by Listing Rule 10.13

In accordance with Listing Rule 10.13 the following information is provided in relation to the approval of the issue of the Aleksic Securities under Resolution 3.

Company to accelerate sales and build brand awareness via its ecommerce
channels. The funds raised will also be allocated to a strategic build-up of
inventory levels to ensure fulfilment for future purchase orders as they arise.

Subject to receiving Shareholder approval and consistent with the terms of the April Placement, the Company also proposes to issue 2,777,778 free-attaching Director Placement Options to Mr Cheok (or his nominees) ( Cheok Options ), being on the basis of 1 free-attaching Option for every 1 Cheok Share subscribed by Mr Cheok.

The proposed issue of the Cheok Shares and Cheok Options ( Cheok Securities ) constitutes the giving of a financial benefit for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

6. Resolution 6 – Ratification of prior issue of Tranche 1 Placement Shares

Background

As announced to market on 14 August 2024, the Company proposes to undertake a two-tranche capital raising as follows (collectively the “ Capital Raising ”):

  • (a) an unconditional placement of 22,965,136 fully paid ordinary shares ( Tranche 1 Placement Shares ) at an issue price of $0.012 (1.2 cents) to professional, sophisticated and institutional investors, pursuant to the Company’s remaining placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 to raise approximately $275,581 (before costs) ( Tranche 1 Placement ); and

  • (b) subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, placement of a subsequent tranche of up to 31,201,531 Shares ( Tranche 2 Placement Shares ) at an issue price of $0.012 (1.2 cents) to professional, sophisticated and institutional investors, to raise $374,418.16 (before costs) ( Tranche 2 Placement ).

The Tranche 2 Placement includes a commitment of $40,000, from Mr Alex Aleksic to subscribe for 3,333,334 Shares ( Aleksic Placement Shares ), which will be subject to the Company receiving Shareholder approval under Resolution 10.

Subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, the Company also proposes to issue free-attaching Options, each being exercisable at $0.015 (1.5 cents) per Option and expiring 3 years from their date of issue and otherwise on the terms set out in Appendix B ( Attaching Options ), on the basis of 1 Attaching Option for every 2 Shares subscribed for under the Tranche 1 Placement or Tranche 2 Placement.

The Company has appointed JP Equity Holding Pty Ltd ( Lead Manager ) to act as the lead manager of the Capital Raising.

Settlement and the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares was not conditional upon Shareholders approving the relevant Attaching Options and accordingly, settlement of the Tranche 1 Placement occurred on Tuesday, 20 August 2024 and the Tranche 1 Placement Shares will be issued on Thursday, 22 August 2024.

The issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares did not fit within any of the exceptions (to Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A) and, as it has not been approved by the Company’s Shareholders, it effectively uses up part of the expanded 25% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A, reducing the Company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A for the 12 month period following the announcement of the Capital Raising (noting that the extra 10% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A will expire unless re-approved by the Company’s Shareholders on an annual basis).

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1.

To this end, this Resolution seeks Shareholder approval to subsequently approve the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4.

Please refer to the Explanatory Statement for Resolution 1 for a summary of Listing Rules 7.1, 7.1A and 7.4.

If this Resolution is passed, the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 25% capacity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rules 7.1 (15%) and 7.1A (10%), effectively increasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the announcement of the Capital Raising.

If this Resolution is not passed, the issue of the Tranche 1 Placement Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 25% capacity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rules 7.1 (15%) and 7.1A (10%), effectively decreasing the number of Equity Securities the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the announcement of the Capital Raising.

The proposed issue of the Conditional Placement Shares does not fit within any of the exceptions (to Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A) and exceeds the expanded 25% limit in Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A. It therefore requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.

If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Conditional Placement Shares. Additionally, the issue of Conditional Placement Shares will be excluded in calculating the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

If this Resolution is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Conditional Placement Shares and the Company will not raise $334,418.35 (before costs) by the issue of the Conditional Placement Shares.

10. Resolution 10 – Approval of issue of Placement Shares and Placement Options to Mr Alex Aleksic, Director of the Company

Background

As part of the Capital Raising referred to in the Explanatory Statement for Resolution 6, subject to receiving Shareholder approval, Mr Alex Aleksic, a Director of the Company, has agreed to subscribe for 3,333,334 Shares at an issue price of $0.012 (1.2 cents) per Share, being on the same terms as the Tranche 1 Placement, to raise a total of $40,000 (before costs), as well as 1,666,667 Attaching Options (together, the “ Aleksic Placement Securities ”).

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

The proposed issue of the Aleksic Placement Securities constitutes the giving of a financial benefit for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

Please refer to the Explanatory Statement for Resolution 3 for a summary of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

The non-conflicted Directors of the Company (being Mr Albert Cheok, Mr Nathan Quailey, Mr Marcus Brown and Ms Katie Eshuys) carefully considered the proposed issue of the Aleksic Placement Securities and formed the view that the giving of this financial benefit to Alex Aleksic is on arm’s length terms, as the securities are proposed to be issued on the same terms as offered to non-related parties of the Company under the Capital Raising announced to market on 14 August 2024.

Accordingly, the non-conflicted Directors of the Company believe that the proposed issue of the Aleksic Placement Securities falls within the “arm’s length terms” exception as set out in section 210 of the Corporations Act, and the Company relies on this exception from the requirement to obtain Shareholder approval under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act for the issue of the Aleksic Placement Securities.

Listing Rule 10.11

Please refer to the Explanatory Statement for Resolution 3 for a summary of Listing Rule 10.11.

The issue of the Aleksic Placement Securities falls within Listing Rule 10.11.1 and does not fall within any of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12. It therefore requires the approval of the Company’s Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.11.

Resolution 10 seeks the required shareholder approval for the issue of the Aleksic Placement Securities under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11.

If Resolution 10 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Aleksic Placement Securities and the issue of the Aleksic Placement Securities will be excluded from the calculation of the number of Equity Securities that the Company can issue without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 (pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 14).

If Resolution 10 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Aleksic Placement Securities.

In accordance with Listing Rule 10.13 the following information is provided in relation to the approval of the issue of the Aleksic Placement Securities under Resolution 10.

Directors’ Recommendation

The Board of Directors recommend Shareholders vote for this Resolution.

12. Resolution 12 – Approval of issue of Consideration Shares

Background

As announced to the market on 14 August 2024, the Company has entered into share purchase agreement ( OMG SPA ) with the shareholders of Good Oats Pty Limited ACN 637 719 503 ( OMG ), pursuant to which the shareholders of OMG ( OMG Shareholders ) have agreed to sell and the Company has agreed to buy, all of the issued shares in OMG from the OMG Shareholders ( OMG Acquisition ).

OMG, which trades as Oat Milk Goodness, was co-founded in 2019 by Australian cricketer Steve Smith, together with food industry veteran Tony Adams and investment advisor Daniel Rootes. The brand was established to develop a home-grown oat milk product that takes advantage of Australia’s abundant supply of natural oats, and is also free of industrial seed oils such as canola, rapeseed or sunflower oil which can cause inflammation in the body.

Pursuant to the OMG SPA, the Company has agreed to issue the OMG Shareholders 285,000,000 new, fully paid ordinary shares in the Company as consideration for the OMG Acquisition ( OMG Consideration Shares ), subject to obtaining Shareholder approval.

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the number of

Forbidden Foods Limited | General Meeting – Notice of Meeting and Explanatory Statement

36

equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12-month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that period.

The proposed issue of the OMG Consideration Shares ( OMG Share Issue ) does not fall within any of these exceptions and exceeds the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1. It therefore will require the approval of the Company's Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 12 seeks shareholder approval for the OMG Share Issue under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 12 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the OMG Share Issue and the issue of the OMG Consideration Shares will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 12 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the OMG Share Issue and the Company will not be able to proceed with the OMG Acquisition.

Information required under Listing Rule 7.3

In accordance with Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to the approval of the proposed issue of the OMG Consideration Shares under Resolution 12.

Listing Rule Required Disclosure Required Disclosure Required Disclosure
