In accordance with section 249L of the Corporations Act, members are advised that:

  • the proxy need not be a member of the Company; and

  • a member who is entitled to cast 2 or more votes may appoint 2 proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If the member appoints 2 proxies and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the member’s votes, then in accordance with section 249X(3) of the Corporations Act, each proxy may exercise one-half of the votes.

Sections 250BB and 250BC of the Corporations Act came into effect on 1 August 2011 and apply to voting by proxy on or after that date. Shareholders and their proxies should be aware of these changes to the Corporations Act, as they will apply to this Meeting. Broadly, the changes mean that:

  • if proxy holders vote, they must cast all directed proxies as directed; and

1

  • any directed proxies which are not voted will automatically default to the Chair, who must vote the proxies as directed.

Further details on these changes are set out below.

Proxy vote if appointment specifies way to vote

Section 250BB(1) of the Corporations Act provides that an appointment of a proxy may specify the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution and, if it does :

  • the proxy need not vote on a show of hands, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed); and

  • 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 (i.e. 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 (i.e. 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

  • either of the following applies:

  • the proxy is not recorded as attending the meeting;

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions which are the subject of the business of the Meeting.

1. RESOLUTIONS 1 AND 2 – RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUES OF SHARES AND OPTIONS

1.1 General

Between 9 January 2014 and 18 June 2014 (inclusive), the Company issued (among other issues) 342,875,000 Shares and 77,500,000 Options (free attaching to Shares issued on 9 January 2014) to sophisticated investors at issue prices of $0.0024, $0.0032 or $0.004 per Share to raise $1,142,600.

The Company provided notice pursuant to section 708A(5)(e) of the Corporations Act that the Shares were issued without disclosure to investors under Part 6D.2 of the Corporations Act.

The issue of the Shares and Options was conducted under the Company’s existing placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.

Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of 174,355,557 Shares and 77,500,000 Options issued under the Company’s capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of 168,519,443 Shares issued under the Company’s capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A gives a company the ability to issue equity securities under a 10% placement facility provided the company has obtained shareholder approval by way of a special resolution at an annual general meeting. Shareholder approval of the 10% placement facility under Listing Rule 7.1A is valid from the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained and expires on the first to occur of:

  • (a) the date that is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained; and

  • (b) the date of the approval by Shareholders of a transaction under either ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2 or 11.2.

The Shareholders previously approved a 10% placement facility under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A at the last annual general meeting of the Company which was held on 29 November 2013.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 sets out an exception to ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A. It has the effect that where a company in general meeting ratifies the previous issue of securities made pursuant to ASX Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.1A (and provided that the previous issues did not breach ASX Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.1A) those securities will be deemed to have been issued with shareholder approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rules 7.1 or 7.1A as relevant.

6

By ratifying the issues of Shares and Options in Resolutions 1 and 2, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and the additional 10% annual capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1A.

A summary of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in section 1.1 above.

The effect of Resolution 3 will be to allow the Company to issue the Options, without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

2.2 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to the Options issue proposed pursuant to Resolution 3:

  • (a) the maximum number of Options to be issued is 187,625,000 Options;

  • (b) the Options will be issued on the basis they are free attaching to the placees of Shares issued on 19 and 24 February and accordingly the issue price of the Options is nil and no funds will be raised from their issue;

  • (c) the terms of the Options are set out in Schedule 1 of this Explanatory Statement;

  • (i) continuing development of the Company’s “Nutrimix” soil treatments;

  • (ii) performing due diligence on Platinum JV Developments; and

3. RESOLUTION 4 – ISSUE OF SHARES TO RM CORPORATE FINANCE (AND / OR NOMINEES) AS CORPORATE ADVISORY AND CAPITAL RAISING FEES

3.1 General

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of 43,213,889 Shares to RM Corporate Finance (or its nominees) in consideration for services provided under a corporate advisory and capital raising mandate between RM Corporate Finance and the Company as announced to the ASX on 28 July 2014 ( Mandate ).

Of the total of 43,213,889 Shares proposed to be issued to RM Corporate Finance (and/or its nominees) under Resolution 4, 28,888,889 of those Shares are proposed to be issued in consideration for corporate advisory services provided by RM Corporate Finance to the Company, including services associated with the introduction and management of potential project acquisitions to the Company as the Company has announced to the ASX since April 2014. The remaining 14,325,000 Shares proposed to be issued to RM Corporate Finance (and/or its nominees) pursuant to Resolution 4 comprise a fee for RM Corporate Finance facilitating capital raising by the Company during the 2014 financial year. Please refer to the Company’s announcement on 28 July 2014 for a summary of further issues of securities agreed pursuant to the Mandate (which are subject to Shareholders’ approval).

3.2 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 Mandate will result in the issue of Shares, if approved by Shareholders, which constitutes giving a financial benefit. Guy Le Page is a related party of the Company by virtue of being a Director. Guy Le Page has a controlling interest in RM Corporate Finance, which results in RM Corporate Finance being a related party of the Company.

The Directors (other than Guy Le Page who has a material personal interest in Resolution 4) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act is not required in respect of the issue of Shares under this Resolution 4 because the Shares will be issued to RM Corporate Finance on reasonable

9

commercial terms in the general market for services of the nature and type being provided under the Mandate and as such the giving of the financial benefit is on arm’s length terms.

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

As the Mandate involves the issue of Shares to a related 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 (other than Guy Le Page who has a material personal interest in Resolution 4) that the exceptions set out in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 do not apply in the current circumstances.

3.4 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 this Resolution 4:

  • (a) the Shares will be issued to RM Corporate Finance (or its nominees), which is a related party of the Company by virtue of being controlled by Guy Le Page, a director of the Company;

  • (b) the maximum number of Shares to be issued is 43,213,889;

  • (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) and it is intended that issue of the Shares will occur on the same date;

  • (d) the Shares will be issued for nil cash consideration in satisfaction of services provided by RM Corporate Finance in accordance with the Mandate (the notional issue prices for those Shares comprise $0.0024 per Share for the capital raising fee and $0.0027, $0.0036 and $0.004 per Share for components of the corporate advisory fees);

  • (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;

  • (f) the Company will make an application for Official Quotation by ASX of all Shares issued; and

  • (g) no funds will be raised from the Mandate as the Shares are being issued in consideration for services provided in accordance with the Mandate.

Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue under this Resolution 4 as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of Shares to RM Corporate Finance (or its nominees) will not be included in the use of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

10

4. RESOLUTION 5 – ISSUE OF SHARES TO PME BIOFUELS LIMITED (AND / OR NOMINEES) AS A LOAN ESTABLISHMENT FEE

4.1 General

Resolution 5 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of Shares to PME Biofuels Limited (or its nominees) as a loan establishment fee in consideration for the provision of a loan facility under a mandate between PME Biofuels Limited and the Company as announced to the ASX on 28 July 2014 ( Loan Facility Mandate ).

Under the Loan Facility Mandate, the Company has entered into an arrangement with PME Biofuels Limited for a standby facility of up to $1,800,000 for use towards due diligence upon Platinum JV Developments. PME Biofuels Limited has agreed with the Company to charge an interest rate of 18% per annum on the amount actually borrowed and an establishment fee of $75,000 (GST exclusive) for the provision of the Loan Facility.

Both the $75,000 loan establishment fee and the interest on any amounts drawn down under the Loan Facility Mandate (although no drawdowns have yet been made as at the date of this notice) are payable in Shares at an issue price of the lower of:

  • (a) $0.0024 per Share; or

  • (b) 80% of the five day VWAP for Shares prior to the date of the Meeting.

The Company does not propose to seek approval at the Meeting for the issue of Shares as interest repayments, as there have been no drawdowns to date under the Loan Facility Mandate. Consequently, Resolution 5 relates only to the issue of Shares to pay the loan establishment fee to the value of $75,000.

A summary of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in section 1.1 above.

The effect of Resolution 5 will be to allow the Company to issue up to the maximum number of Shares calculated pursuant to that Resolution 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

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of Shares pursuant to Resolution 5:

  • (a) the maximum number of Shares to be issued is up to that number of Shares which, when multiplied by the issue price will equate to the equivalent of $75,000 (although no cash consideration will be paid for the Shares as they are proposed for issue in satisfaction of the loan establishment fee payable to PME Biofuels Limited under the Loan Facility Mandate);

  • (b) the Shares will be issued no later than 3 months 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) and it is intended that issue of the Shares will occur on the same date;

  • (c) the issue price will be the lower of:

  • (i) $0.0024 per Share; or

  • (ii) 80% of the five day VWAP for Shares prior to the date of the Meeting;

11

  • (d) the Shares will be issued to PME Biofuels Limited and/or its nominees, none of which are related parties of the Company;

  • (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 Shares will be issued for nil cash consideration (and accordingly no funds will be raised from their issue) in satisfaction of the loan establishment fee pursuant to the Loan Facility Mandate.

4.3 Dilution

The closing market price for Shares on 28 July 2014 was $0.003. The lowest issue price (ie 20% discount) of this market price would be $0.0024 per Share.

Accordingly, set out below is a worked example of the number of Shares that may be issued under Resolution 5 based on an assumed issue price of $0.0024, $0.0018 and $0.0012.

*The number of Shares on issue could increase if Options currently on issue are exercised or as a result of the issue of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a pro-rata rights issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval.

The table above uses the following assumptions:

  • (i) There are currently 1,769,194,434 Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice of Meeting.

  • (ii) No other new Shares are issued other than pursuant to Resolution 5.

  • (iii) It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Shares pursuant to Resolution 5.

  • (iv) The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.

  • (v) The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of exercise of Options into Shares, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.

The Company notes that the above workings are an example only and the actual issue price may differ. This will result in the maximum number of Shares to be issued and the dilution percentage to also differ.

TOTAL 95,000 39,583,333 118,750

Notes:

  1. The deemed issue price of the Shares is based on a 20% discount to the $0.003 closing price of the Company’s Share capital as at 28 July 2014 which price of $0.0024 per Share is proposed because it was the same issue price as the Company’s placement of Shares announced to the ASX on 18 June 2014.

Corporate Consulting Services – Mr D P Jones

Mr D P Jones has provided corporate advisory services to the Company from 12 May 2014 for a period of 3 months for an amount of $6,000 per month paid by 50% cash and 50% Shares in the Company, with the number of Shares calculated at the closing price of the Company’s Shares as at 28 July 2014 of $0.003. The number of Shares proposed pursuant to Resolution 7 to be issued to Mr D P Jones as consideration for these services is therefore 3,000,000 Shares. The value of these 3,000,000 Shares at the closing price of $0.003 per Share on ASX’s market on 28 July 2014 is $9,000.

Under Resolution 7, the total number of Shares proposed to be issued to Mr D P Jones is 11,333,333 (including all the Shares described as allocated to him or his nominees in this section 5.1).

5.2 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act – Related Party Transactions

The issue of Shares to the Directors constitutes a grant of a financial benefit to a related party for the purposes of 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 nominated exceptions to the relevant provisions of the Corporations Act; or

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

13

For the purposes of Chapter 2E, Messrs Le Page, Jones and Alabakis are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors and the issue of Shares would constitute the giving of a financial benefit.

The Directors consider it prudent to consider that each Director holds a “material personal interest” in the consideration of the matters set out in Resolutions 6 to 8 (to the extent they each may receive Shares) and so a quorum cannot be formed to consider the matter at Board level. However, by reason of section 195(4) of the Corporations Act, the Directors are permitted in such instances to put the matter before Shareholders to resolve. The Directors have accordingly exercised their right under section 195(4) of the Corporations Act and the proposed issues of the Shares to the Directors (or their nominees) are put to Shareholders to consider, and if thought fit, approve.

For the purpose of obtaining Shareholder approval, and in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, and in particular section 219, the following information is provided to Shareholders to allow them to assess whether or not to approve the issue of the Shares to the Directors under Resolutions 6 to 8.

5.3 ASX Listing Rule 10.11

A summary of the requirements under Listing Rule 10.11 is set out in section 3.3 above.

5.4 Technical Information required by Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.13

Identity of the related party to whom the proposed resolution would permit the financial benefit to be given.

Subject to Shareholders’ approval, the Shares the subject of Resolutions 6 to 8 will be issued to Directors or their nominees within one month of the passing of these Resolutions (or such later date as permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) and it is anticipated the Shares will be issued on one date. Messrs Le Page, Jones and Alabakis are Directors of the Company and are therefore classified as related parties.

Nature of, reasons and basis for the financial benefit

The issue of the maximum numbers of 39,583,333 and 3,000,000 Shares is in lieu of $95,000 of loans from Directors and provision of corporate consulting services by Mr D P Jones respectively. Given the current financial position of the Company the Directors consider that the issue of Shares in lieu of cash payment is a cost effective and efficient means for the Company to conserve cash but repay loans made to the Company and to pay for services rendered by Mr Jones to the Company.

The deemed issue price of the Shares is based on a 20% discount to the $0.003 closing price of the Company’s share capital on 28 July 2014 in relation to the loan repayments and $0.003 per Share in relation to the provision of corporate consulting services by Mr D P Jones.

The Directors consider this a fair and appropriate way to work out the number of Shares to be issued and the deemed issued price of the Shares to be issued to the Directors in lieu of loan repayments and payments for services rendered by Mr Jones to the Company.

The Shares will be issued for nil cash consideration, in lieu of cash payment and accordingly no funds will be raised.

14

The Shares proposed to be issued pursuant to Resolutions 6 to 8 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.

Directors’ recommendations to members and reasons

  • (a) Mr Le Page declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 6 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of that Resolution on the basis that he and/or his nominees are proposed to be issued Shares if Resolution 6 is passed. However, in respect of Resolutions 7 and 8, he has no material personal interest and he recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the following reasons:

  • (i) the issue of Shares in lieu of repayment of the loan funds owed to Messrs Le Page, Jones and Alabakis and the issue of Shares in lieu of payment of corporate advisory fees to Mr Jones is a reasonable and appropriate method to provide cost effective loan repayment and remuneration as the non-cash form of this benefit will allow the Company to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on other activities than it would if it were required to repay the loans and make payment for services rendered by Mr Jones in cash; 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;

  • (b) Mr Jones declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 7 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of that Resolution on the basis that he and/or his nominees are proposed to be issued Shares if Resolution 7 is passed. However, in respect of 6 and 8, he has no material personal interest and he recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the reasons relevant to the loan repayments described in paragraph (a);

  • (c) Mr Alabakis declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 8 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of that Resolution on the basis that he and/or his nominees are proposed to be issued Shares if Resolution 8 is passed. However, in respect of Resolutions 6 and 7, he has no material personal interest and he recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the reasons set out in paragraph (a); and

  • (d) The Company’s only other Director, Mr Keong Chan has no material personal interest in the outcome of Resolutions 6 to 8 and he recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the reasons set out in paragraph (a).

** Comprising dilution of 0.92% by Mr G T Le Page, 0.46% by Mr D P Jones and 0.80% by Mr T Alabakis (or their respective nominees).

The table above uses the following assumptions:

  • (i) There are currently 1,769,194,434 Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice of Meeting.

  • (ii) All Shares are issued under each of Resolutions 6, 7 and 8 but no other new Shares are issued.

  • (iii) It is assumed that no Options are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the Shares pursuant to Resolutions 6 to 8.

  • (iv) The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.

  • (v) The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of exercise of Options into Shares, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.

  2. Mr Jones’ interests in Shares and Options are held either jointly with his wife Mrs Helen Jones as trustees for the Leto Trust or Leto Super Fund or indirectly through Perigee Capital Pty Ltd (which company Mr Jones controls) as trustee of a trust where Mr Jones has a beneficial interest.

  3. Mr Alabakis’ interests in Shares and Options are held in his own name.

Remuneration of the Directors

The remuneration and emoluments from the Company to the directors for the previous financial year and the proposed remuneration and emoluments for the current financial year are set out below:

Director Current Financial Year
(ending 30 June 2015)
Previous
Financial Year (ended
30 June 2014)
Mr Guy T Le Page $96,000 $96,000
Mr Derek P Jones $66,000 $48,000
Mr Thomas Alabakis $48,000 $48,000

Share Price history

Historical Share price information for the last twelve months is as follows:

Price ($) Date
Lowest 0.001 14 August 2013
Highest 0.012 6 and 7 March 2014
Last 0.003 28 July 2014

The Shares proposed to be issued pursuant to Resolutions 6 to 8 (at a deemed issue price of $0.0024 in the case of the loan repayments and $0.003 in the case of the corporate consulting services by Mr D P Jones) may or may not be issued at a price that is a discount to the market price at the time of issue of those Shares, if those Resolutions are approved at the Meeting.

The primary purpose of the proposed issues of Shares pursuant to Resolutions 6 to 8 is to preserve the Company’s cash resources to enable it to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on other activities than it would if it were required to repay in cash the loans to Messrs Le Page, Jones and Alabakis and required to make cash payment for services rendered by Mr Jones.

Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required in order to issue the Shares to the Directors under Resolutions 6 to 8, as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issues of Shares to the Directors will not be included in the use of the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

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 6 to 8.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING ‘APPOINTMENT OF PROXY’ FORM

( 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.

( 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 ):

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

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

  • (c) ( 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.

  • (d) (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 Soil Sub Technologies Limited, Level 1, 143 Hay Street, Subiaco WA 6008; or

  • (b) facsimile to the Company on facsimile number +61 8 6380 9299,

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.
