Chairman’s letter

Dear Shareholder,

I am pleased to invite you to Range’s 2017 Annual General Meeting ( AGM ). The AGM will be held at 10.00am on Friday, 19 May 2017 at the Sydney offices of Range’s lawyers, Ashurst, Level 11, 5 Martin Place, Sydney.

The AGM is an opportunity for shareholders to hear from and ask questions of Range’s directors and management team. I will be delivering an address to shareholders and Range’s Managing Director, Lars Amstrup, will provide an overview of operations and performance in FY2016 and discuss the exciting year of activity we have planned for 2017.

The enclosed Notice of Annual General Meeting details the items of business for the AGM and voting procedures. The items of business will be:

  1. Receipt of Financial Report, Directors’ Report and Auditor’s Report

  2. Remuneration Report

  3. Approval of the Range Retain and Grow Incentive ( RAG) Plan

  4. Approval of Lars Amstrup’s participation in the Range RAG Plan

  5. Re-election of Matthew Darby

  6. Constitutional amendment to allow for direct voting

A copy of the Notice of AGM and the Company’s 2016 Annual Report is available from the Company’s website at: http://investors.rangeinternational.com/Investors/.

If you are unable to attend the meeting, you may appoint a proxy and register your voting instructions electronically, by using your SRN or HIN to login to Link’s Investor Centre. Alternatively, you may complete the enclosed Proxy Form and return it in the envelope provided. To be valid, your Proxy Form or electronic voting instructions must be received by 10.00am (AEST) on Wednesday, 17 May 2017.

I remain committed in my endeavour to increase the number of Range shareholders who receive communications by email rather than post. The numbers are improving however, we still have a majority of shareholders receiving communications by post. Having over 2,400 shareholders, communication by post is an expensive exercise for Range. Aside from the cost savings to be gained by email over post, communicating with our shareholders by post is contrary to Range’s commitment to the environment.

Please enable us to communicate with you via email by providing your email address on the enclosed ‘Go Online and Go Green to Help the Environment’ form and returning the form in the prepaid envelope provided.

The Board and management team look forward to seeing you at the AGM.

Yours sincerely,

Explanatory Notes

These Explanatory Notes provide information to shareholders for the meeting of shareholders of Range International Limited to be held at 10.00am on Friday, 19 May 2017 at the offices of Ashurst, Level 11, 5 Martin Place, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia and it should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Notice of Annual General Meeting.

Item 1 Receipt of Financial Report, Directors’ Report and Auditor’s Report

Financial Report

The Company’s Financial Report, Directors’ Report and Auditor’s Report for the year ended 31 December 2016 are set out in the Company’s 2016 Annual Report.

The Corporations Act requires the Financial Report (which includes the Financial Statements and the Directors’ Declaration), the Directors’ Report and the Auditor’s Report to be laid before the AGM. There is no requirement either in the Corporations Act or in the Constitution of the Company for shareholders to approve the Financial Report, the Directors’ Report and the Auditor’s Report.

Shareholders attending the AGM will be given a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about or make comments on the Financial Report, the Directors’ Report and the Auditor’s Report.

Auditor’s Report

The Auditor will be attending the AGM and will answer questions from shareholders relevant to:

  • the conduct of the audit in relation to the Company’s Financial Report for the year ended 31 December 2016;

  • the preparation and content of the Auditor’s Report for the year ended 31 December 2016;

  • the accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016; and

  • the independence of the Auditor in relation to the conduct of the audit.

Shareholders may submit a written question to the Auditor prior to the AGM provided that the question relates to:

  • the content of the Auditor’s Report; or

  • the conduct of the audit in relation to the Company’s Financial Report for the year ended 31 December 2016.

Questions of the Auditor are to be submitted to the Company on the form attached to this Notice of AGM and must be received no later than 7.00pm (AEST) on Friday, 12 May 2017. Any questions will be forwarded by the Company to the Auditor. Questions may not be sent directly to the Auditor.

If questions are submitted to the Auditor, the Company will make available at the AGM a question list prepared by the Auditor in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act.

Item 2 Remuneration Report

The Company’s Remuneration Report for the year ended 31 December 2016 is set out on pages 39 to 51 of the Company’s 2016 Annual Report.

The Corporations Act requires that a resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report be put to a vote at the AGM. In accordance with section 250R(3) of the Corporations Act, the vote on this resolution is advisory only and the outcome will not be binding on the Company. However, if 25% or more of the votes cast on the resolution are cast against the adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive AGMs, Part 2G.2 of the Corporations Act requires the Company to put to shareholders a resolution proposing that an extraordinary general meeting ( Spill Meeting ) be called within 90 days of the second of those AGMs to consider the election of directors ( Spill Resolution ). If a Spill Resolution is passed, all of the directors at the second of those AGMs (other than the Managing Director) will cease to hold office at the Spill Meeting unless re-elected at that meeting.

The Company’s Board will take the outcome of the vote into consideration when reviewing the Company’s remuneration practices and policies.

Range International Limited ACN 611 998 200

Range International Limited – Notice of 2017 Annual General Meeting

==> picture [100 x 34] intentionally omitted <==

Shareholders attending the AGM will be given a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about or make comments on the Remuneration Report.

The Board has sought to ensure that the Company’s disclosures regarding its remuneration practices are clear and facilitate an open dialogue with shareholders on remuneration. The Board encourages shareholders to read the Remuneration Report in its entirety.

The Board unanimously recommends that shareholders vote in favour of this resolution. The Chairman of the meeting intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of this resolution.

Item 3 Approval of the Range Retain and Grow Incentive Plan

In 2016, the Company implemented an Employee Share Option Plan ( ESOP ) in order to facilitate a grant of options to select executives on the successful listing of the Company. The ESOP was designed to retain and reward participants as well as align their interests with the interests of investors. On 20 July 2016, a total of 6,882,160 options were granted under the ESOP to Directors and select employees. The key terms of these grants are detailed in the Company’s Remuneration Report.

The Board wishes to implement a formal incentive plan framework for senior management known as the Range ‘Retain and Grow' ( RAG ) Plan. Pursuant to the RAG Plan, participants will be offered incentives, in the form of cash and/or equity ( Share Rights ), for the achievement of annual performance conditions and project milestone(s).

The RAG Plan will provide participants with the opportunity to earn a cash payment and/or a grant of Share Rights at two points in time:

  1. at the end of each year to the extent that annual performance conditions for that year are achieved; and

  2. upon achievement of a project milestone(s).

The Board will determine the proportion of each incentive reward to be paid out immediately in cash or deferred into a grant of Share Rights.

Share Rights granted under the RAG Plan will vest progressively over five years commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date. The participant must continue to be employed on each vesting date in order for the Share Rights to vest. Once vested, the participant will be able to exercise the Share Rights to acquire Company shares. Share Rights will be governed by the existing ESOP Rules.

Rationale for the RAG Plan

The Board believes that the RAG Plan will attract, motivate and retain key employees by:

  1. incentivising executives to work together to achieve a small group of objectives that really matter, providing them with latitude to identify and manage the actions needed to build the business, without competing objectives; and

  2. facilitating the acquisition of Company shares, thus providing key employees with a longer-term ownership stake in the Company, and allowing them to share in any capital growth.

The design of the RAG Plan recognises for example that one of the Company’s key strategic goals is the development of marketing, sales and distribution. If the Company is successful in meeting this strategic goal, it will follow that significant shareholder wealth will have been created. The new RAG plan therefore strengthens KMP and investor alignment as it encourages participants to focus on creating value for shareholders.

The exposure of KMP to the risks associated with share value growth is protected by the prohibition, established in the Company’s Securities Trading Policy and the Corporations Act, on KMPs entering into arrangements which have the effect of hedging the risk associated with the equity element of a KMP’s incentive opportunity.

Shareholder approval is sought for the adoption of the RAG Plan under the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act, including but not limited to ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 9) so that any shares issued under the RAG Plan will be excluded from the calculation of the maximum number of new shares that can be issued by the Company in any 12 month period (currently 15% of the shares previously on issue) for a period of three years from the date of approval.

Range International Limited ACN 611 998 200

Page 9

Range International Limited – Notice of 2017 Annual General Meeting

==> picture [100 x 34] intentionally omitted <==

Participation and terms of grants

The Board may in its absolute discretion offer any employee including an Executive Director the opportunity to participate in the RAG Plan (subject to shareholder approval in the case of Share Rights granted to an Executive Director).

Purchase price and performance conditions

RAG Plan participants are not required to pay or give consideration for a cash payment or the grant of Share Rights. A Share Right is effectively a nil-priced option, which means that participants do not need to pay anything to exercise a vested Share Right to acquire a Range Share.

Grants of cash and/or Share Rights under the RAG Plan will be awarded on achievement of annual financial performance targets and completion of key project milestones determined by the Board and advised to the participant in the relevant invitation.

Limitation on issues

No Share Rights may be issued or exercised under the RAG Plan by a participant if to do so would contravene the Corporations Act, the ASX Listing Rules or any relief or waiver granted by ASIC or the ASX that binds the Company in making any offer under the ESOP or otherwise in connection with the operation of the ESOP.

Any benefits required to be provided to a participant in accordance with the RAG Plan and/or the ESOP Rules will be reduced to ensure compliance with Part 2D.2 of the Corporations Act and the provision of such reduced benefit shall constitute full satisfaction of Range’s obligations.

Term and Vesting Conditions

Having satisfied the performance conditions for the award of Share Rights under the RAG Plan, there are no additional performance conditions attached to the vesting of the Share Rights other than continuing employment. Share Rights awarded under the RAG Plan will vest progressively over five years (commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date), subject to continuing employment.

Upon vesting, the participant may choose to exercise each Share Right to acquire an ordinary share in the Company and is free to dispose of each share at that time. The maximum term of Share Rights granted under the RAG Plan will be fifteen (15) years, meaning a participant can choose to exercise vested Share Rights up to 15 years after grant. A vesting condition for a Share Right may, subject to the Corporations Act, the ASX Listing Rules (where applicable), and any other applicable laws and regulations, be waived by the Board by written notice to the relevant participant and on such terms and conditions as determined by the Board.

Forfeiture

Unless otherwise specified in a participant’s invitation or otherwise determined by the Board in its discretion, a Share Right granted under the RAG Plan may be forfeited and lapse:

  • if the Board determines that any vesting condition applicable to the Share Right has not been met, or cannot be met, by the relevant date;

  • on expiry of the exercise period;

  • if the Share Right has not vested and the participant’s employment or office is terminated (see further details below);

  • where the Board determines that the participant has committed an act of fraud or dishonesty or has wilfully breached his or her obligations to the Range Group;

  • if the participant purports to deal with the Share Right in breach of any applicable disposal or hedging restrictions;

  • if the participant materially breaches the RAG Plan or the ESOP Rules and fails to satisfactorily remedy the breach within the specified time period;

  • if the Share Right has not vested and the participant becomes insolvent; and

  • any other circumstance set out in the participant’s invitation.

Range International Limited – Notice of 2017 Annual General Meeting

==> picture [100 x 34] intentionally omitted <==

Cessation of employment or office

The treatment of Share Rights on cessation of employment will depend on the reason the participant ceased to be employed. A participant who is not a ‘Bad Leaver’ may retain all vested but unexercised Share Rights granted under the RAG Plan. However, the participant may only retain such of his or her unvested Share Rights as the Board expressly determines in its absolute discretion.

A ’Good Leaver’, such as a participant whose employment has ceased due to total and permanent disablement, will generally retain a pro-rated portion of unvested Share Rights held at termination, having regard to the extent to which any performance conditions or project milestone(s) have been achieved.

On cessation of employment of a participant who is classified a ‘Bad Leaver’, the participant will forfeit any unvested Share Rights, any vested Share Rights and any shares acquired from exercising vested Share Rights. A Bad Leaver, could include a participant who has been dismissed for fraudulent or dishonest behaviour, who has engaged in grave misconduct or recklessness in the discharge of their duties, or who has committed a serious breach of the terms of their employment.

Any Share Rights a participant is not permitted to retain will be forfeited.

Takeovers

If a change of control event occurs, the Board may, in its absolute discretion, determine the manner in which any or all of a participant’s Share Rights granted under the RAG Plan are dealt with. A change of control event includes but is not limited to the following:

  • a change in control of the Company (within the meaning of that term in the Corporations Act);

  • where a person becomes the legal or the beneficial owner of, or has a relevant interest in, more than fifty per cent (50%) of the issued capital of the Company;

  • where a person becomes entitled to acquire, hold or has an equitable interest in more than fifty per cent (50%) of the issued capital of the Company;

  • where a takeover bid is made to acquire more than fifty per cent (50%) of the issued capital of the Company and the takeover bid becomes unconditional and the bidder (together with its associates) has a relevant interest in more than 50% of the issued capital of the Company; or

  • an order is made for the compulsory winding up of the Company.

Dividends and voting rights

Unvested Share Rights under the RAG Plan have no dividend or voting rights. A RAG Plan participant is not entitled to participate in or receive dividends or any other shareholder benefits until a Share Right vests and the participant exercises the Share Right. Shares issued on the exercise of vested Share Rights will rank equally in all respects with all other shares.

Approval of potential termination benefits

Section 200B of the Corporations Act restricts the benefits that can be given to persons who hold a ‘managerial or executive office’ (as defined in the Corporations Act) on leaving their employment with a company. Specifically, a company may only give a person a benefit in connection with them ceasing to hold a managerial or executive office in the company if the benefit is approved by shareholders or an exemption under the Corporations Act applies.

The term ‘benefit’ has a wide meaning and may possibly include benefits resulting from the Board exercising discretions under the rules of the RAG Plan when a participant ceases to be employed by the Company.

Where a participant has ceased their employment before their Share Rights have vested and the participant is not a ‘Bad Leaver’ under the rules of the RAG Plan, the Board may in certain circumstances exercise its discretion to determine that the participant retain some or all of the unvested Share Rights and these may or may not be subject to accelerated vesting. The exercise of these discretions may constitute a ‘benefit’ for the purposes of section 200B of the Corporations Act.

Range International Limited ACN 611 998 200

Range International Limited – Notice of 2017 Annual General Meeting

==> picture [100 x 34] intentionally omitted <==

The Board, therefore, seeks shareholder approval for the exercise of the Board’s discretion in respect of any participant in the RAG Plan who at the time of cessation of their employment holds:

  • a) a managerial or executive office in the Company at the time of cessation of their employment or at any time in the preceding three years; and

  • b) unvested Share Rights at the time of cessation of their employment which were granted under the RAG Plan.

Provided shareholder approval is given, the value of these benefits will not be counted towards the cap in the termination benefits that can be given to a participant without shareholder approval.

The Board does not, however, have discretion to vest any Share Rights if the participant is determined by the Board to be a ‘Bad Leaver’. The Board is only permitted to exercise this discretion in a ‘Good Leaver’ or ‘Leaver’ scenario.

The value of the termination benefits that the Board may give under the RAG Plan cannot be determined in advance. This is because various matters will or are likely to affect that value. In particular, the value of a particular benefit will depend on factors such as the Company’s share price at the time the Rights are retained.

The following additional factors may also affect the benefit’s value:

  • a) the Participant’s length of service and the portion of any relevant performance periods that have expired at the time they cease employment;

  • b) the Participant’s total fixed remuneration at the time grants are made under the RAG Plan and at the time they cease employment; and

  • c) the number of unvested Share Rights that the Participant holds at the time they cease employment.

The Board unanimously recommends that shareholders vote in favour of resolutions 3(a) and 3(b). The Chairman of the meeting intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of both resolutions.

Item 4 Approval of Lars Amstrup's participation in Range RAG Plan

The RAG Plan is an employee incentive scheme for the purposes of the ASX Listing Rules.

ASX Listing Rule 10.14 provides that an entity must not permit directors or their associates to acquire securities under an employee incentive scheme without the approval of shareholders and a notice of meeting to obtain shareholder approval must comply with the requirements of ASX Listing Rule 10.15 or 10.15A.

The Board of Directors seeks shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.14, and for all other purposes, to grant Share Rights under the RAG Plan to the Company's Managing Director and CEO, Lars Amstrup upon the achievement of annual performance conditions and project milestone(s) for a period of 3 years after the date of the AGM.

The terms and conditions applicable to any Share Rights granted to Mr Amstrup under the RAG Plan will be the same as those that apply to other participants as outlined in the Explanatory Notes for Item 3 above.

In accordance with ASX Listing Rules 10.14 and 10.15A and the Corporations Act, the Company provides the following additional information in relation to the proposed grants of Share Rights to Mr Amstrup under the RAG Plan:

Information required under ASX Listing Rule 10.15A.2
- Maximum number of securities that may be acquired
for all persons for whom approval is required including
the formula for calculating the number of securities
to be issue
The only person for whom approval is required under
Listing Rule 10.14 is Mr Amstrup.
For FY17, FY18 and FY19, a total opportunity value of
A$431,738 will be provided annually to Mr Amstrup under the
RAG Plan. A maximum of 75% of this opportunity, or $323,803
each year, will potentially be deferred into a grant of Share
Rights.
The number of Share Rights that may be granted to Mr Amstrup
at any time will be based on the closing price for an ordinary
share in the Company on the date of grant of the Share Rights.
For example, the closing price of an ordinary share in the
Company on 28 March 2017 was $1.10. This would result in a
grant of 294,366 Share Rights (i.e. $323,803/$1.10).
To determine the maximum number of Share Rights that may be
granted to Mr Amstrup, we have considered a share price range
between $0.88 and $1.32, which is 20% below and 20% above
the current value. This results in a maximum annual grant of
367,958 Share Rights for FY17, FY18 and FY19
($323,803/$0.88).
This means that subject to the achievement of annual
performance hurdles and project milestone(s), Mr Amstrup can
be granted up to a maximum of 367,958 Share Rights or
$323,803 worth of Share Rights in FY17, FY18 and FY19,
whichever is the lesser.
Information required under ASX Listing Rule 10.15A.3 – Price or
formula for calculating price at which securities will be issued
As outlined above, the number of Share Rights granted will be
based on the Range closing share price on the date of grant.
Information required under ASX Listing Rule 10.15A.4 This is the first occasion on which shareholder approval is being
sought for the RAG Plan. No person has received Share Rights
under the RAG Plan.
Information required under ASX Listing Rule 10.15A.5 The only director entitled to participate in the RAG Plan
is Mr Amstrup.
Information required under ASX Listing Rule 10.15A.6 – Voting
Exclusion Statement
Refer to page 6.
Information required under ASX Listing Rule 10.15A.7 No loan is required in relation to the acquisition of Share Rights.
A Share Right is effectively a nil-priced option, which means
that participants do not need to pay anything to exercise
a vested Share Right and acquire a Range Share.
Statement required under ASX Listing Rule 10.15A.8 Details of any Share Rights granted to Mr Amstrup under
the RAG Plan will be published in the Company's annual
report for the year in which the grant is made noting that
approval for the grant was obtained under ASX Listing
Rule 10.14.
Any additional persons who become entitled
to participate in the RAG Plan after resolution 4
is approved and who were not named in this
Notice of AGM will not participate until approval
is obtained under Listing Rule 10.14.
Information required under ASX Listing Rule 10.15A.9 Rights Subject to the achievement of annual performance conditions
and project milestone(s), approval is being sought to issue
Share Rights to Mr Amstrup under the RAG Plan for a period
of 3 years from the date of the AGM.

Other than Mr Amstrup, no other director has an interest in the outcome of this resolution.

The Directors (other than Mr Amstrup who abstains) unanimously recommend that shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4. The Chairman of the meeting intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of this resolution.

Item 5 Re-election of Mr Darby

Rule 3.6(c) of the Company’s Constitution requires that an election of directors be held at each annual general meeting.

If no election of directors is scheduled to occur at the annual general meeting under rule 3.3, 3.6(a) or 3.6(b) of the Constitution, the Constitution requires that one director retire from office at the annual general meeting.

As no election of directors is scheduled to occur under rule 3.3, 3.6(a) or 3.6(b) of the Constitution, one of Range’s Directors must retire from office at the annual general meeting.

As Messrs Hall, Darby and Koeck have been in office for the same period, having each been appointed upon the Company’s registration on 21 June 2016, Mr Darby has offered himself for re-election.

Matthew has an entrepreneurial background having founded a number of companies prior to founding the Company. His first venture was Media Partners, which he founded in 1992. Media Partners was a specialist advertising company, which was sold to US based TMP Worldwide in 1996. Following this, he started EStarOnline in 1997. EStarOnline was a proprietary logistic software system company used by companies such as Village Roadshow and the Rugby World Cup. EStarOnline was listed on NZX in 1999 and Matthew exited the business and divested his shareholding in 2002.

In 2002, Matthew founded Range with the aim of developing a sustainable plastic waste recycling technology for the pallet industry. He led the Company through nearly 10 years of research and development before moving the business to Indonesia in 2012. Matthew introduced Stewart Hall to the business and together they expanded the senior management team to drive commercialisation of the Company’s pallet products. Matthew remains closely involved in the business and the achievement of the Company’s strategic goals in his role as an Executive Director of the Company.

The Board greatly appreciates the contribution Matthew is making to the Board and to the Company. If it were not for Matthew, Range would not be in existence.

The Board supports Mr Darby’s re-election.

The Chairman of the Meeting intends to vote open proxies in favour of this resolution.

Item 6 Constitutional amendment to allow for direct voting

It is proposed that a new clause 17.4 (Direct voting) be inserted into the Company’s Constitution so that, in the future, the Company may allow shareholders to vote directly on resolutions considered at a general or class meeting by mailing, faxing or using other electronic means as approved by the Directors in order to lodge their votes with the Company prior to the meeting.

The inclusion of a direct voting provision in the Company’s Constitution will mean that shareholders entitled to vote at a general or class meeting can exercise their voting rights even where they do not attend the meeting personally and do not transfer their voting rights to a third party by appointing a proxy.

Direct voting will operate concurrently with, and will not replace, the proxy system currently provided for in the Company’s Constitution and the Corporations Act. Shareholders will still be entitled to appoint proxies, even if the Company decides to provide for direct voting at a future general or class meeting. Direct voting will be an alternative option to shareholders appointing proxies or corporate representatives (as the case may be) where they are unable to attend a general or class meeting. However, if a shareholder appoints a proxy for a particular meeting and then subsequently lodges a direct vote, the Company will regard the proxy appointment as having lapsed for that meeting and, accordingly, the shareholder’s direct vote will be effective.

If the Constitution is amended to make provision for direct voting on resolutions to be considered at future general and class meetings, the Directors will develop a procedure governing the implementation and use of direct voting.

The Board unanimously recommends that shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 6. The Chairman of the meeting intends to vote undirected proxies in favour of this resolution.
