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.

1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND REPORTS

In accordance with the Constitution, the business of the Meeting will include receipt and consideration of the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2014 together with the declaration of the directors, the directors’ report, the Remuneration Report and the auditor’s report.

The Company will not provide a hard copy of the Company’s annual financial report to Shareholders unless specifically requested to do so. The Company’s annual financial report is available on its website at www.cervantescorp.com.au.

2. RESOLUTION 1 – ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT

2.1 General

The Corporations Act requires that at a listed company’s annual general meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted must be put to the shareholders. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the company or the directors of the company.

The remuneration report sets out the company’s remuneration arrangements for the directors and senior management of the company. The remuneration report is part of the directors’ report contained in the annual financial report of the company for a financial year.

The chair of the meeting must allow a reasonable opportunity for its shareholders to ask questions about or make comments on the remuneration report at the annual general meeting.

2.2 Voting consequences

Under changes to the Corporations Act which came into effect on 1 July 2011, a company is required to put to its shareholders a resolution proposing the calling of another meeting of shareholders to consider the appointment of directors of the company ( Spill Resolution ) if, at consecutive annual general meetings, at least 25% of the votes cast on a remuneration report resolution are voted against adoption of the remuneration report and at the first of those annual general meetings a Spill Resolution was not put to vote. If required, the Spill Resolution must be put to vote at the second of those annual general meetings.

If more than 50% of votes cast are in favour of the Spill Resolution, the company must convene a shareholder meeting ( Spill Meeting ) within 90 days of the second annual general meeting.

All of the directors of the company who were in office when the directors' report (as included in the company’s annual financial report for the most recent financial year) was approved, other than the managing director of the company, will cease to hold office immediately before the end of the Spill Meeting but may stand for re-election at the Spill Meeting.

Following the Spill Meeting those persons whose election or re-election as directors of the company is approved will be the directors of the company.

2552-04/CVS Notice of AGM 2014.doc

2.3 Previous voting results

At the Company’s previous annual general meeting the votes cast against the remuneration report considered at that annual general meeting were less than 25%. Accordingly, the Spill Resolution is not relevant for this Annual General Meeting.

2.4 Proxy voting restrictions

Shareholders appointing a proxy for this Resolution should note the following:

Proxy Directed Undirected
Key Management Personnel1 Voted Not voted3
Chair2 Voted Voted at discretion of Proxy4
Other Voted Voted at discretion of Proxy

Notes:

1 Refers to Key Management Personnel (other than the Chair) whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report, or a Closely Related Party of such a member.

2 Refers to the Chair (where he/she is also a member of the Key Management Personnel whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report), or a Closely Related Party of such a member).

3 Undirected proxies granted to these persons will not be voted and will not be counted in calculating the required majority if a poll is called on this Resolution.

4 The Proxy Form notes it is the Chair’s intention to vote all undirected proxies in favour of all Resolutions.

3. RESOLUTION 2 – RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTOR – JUSTIN VOST

ASX Listing Rule 14.4 provides that a director of an entity must not hold office (without re-election) past the third AGM following the director’s appointment or 3 year, whichever is the longer.

Clause 13.2 of the Constitution provides that:

  • (a) at the Company's annual general meeting in every year, one-third of the Directors for the time being, or, if their number is not a multiple of 3, then the number nearest one-third (rounded upwards in case of doubt), shall retire from office, provided always that no Director (except a Managing Director) shall hold office for a period in excess of 3 years, or until the third annual general meeting following his or her appointment, whichever is the longer, without submitting himself or herself for re-election;

  • (b) the Directors to retire at an annual general meeting are those who have been longest in office since their last election, but, as between persons who became Directors on the same day, those to retire shall (unless they otherwise agree among themselves) be determined by drawing lots;

  • (c) a Director who retires by rotation under clause 13.2 of the Constitution is eligible for re-election; and

  • (d) in determining the number of Directors to retire, no account is to be taken of a Managing Director whom are exempt from retirement by rotation.

7

2552-04/CVS Notice of AGM 2014.doc

The Company currently has 2 Directors that are subject to rotation (excluding Collin Vost as Managing Director) and accordingly 1 must retire.

Mr Justin Vost, the Director longest in office since their last election, retires by rotation and seeks re-election.

4. RESOLUTIONS 3 AND 4 – ISSUE OF SHARES TO RELATED PARTIES

4.1 General

The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, to issue a total of 4,000,000 Shares to Avost Holdings Pty Ltd and Li Hwa Pty Ltd ( Related Parties ) on the terms and conditions set out below.

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 issue of the Shares constitutes giving a financial benefit. Avost Holdings Pty Ltd is an entity controlled by Mr Justin Vost, a Director. Li Hwa Pty Ltd is an entity controlled by Mr Timothy Clark, a Director.

In addition, 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.

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 Shares to the Related Parties.

4.2 Shareholder Approval (Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.11)

Pursuant to and in accordance with the requirements of section 219 of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.13, the following information is provided in relation to the proposed issue of Shares:

  • (a) the related parties are Avost Holdings Pty Ltd and Li Hwa Pty Ltd and they are related parties by virtue of being entities controlled by:

  • (i) in the case of Avost Holdings Pty Ltd, Director Justin Vost; and

  • (ii) in the case of Li Hwa Pty Ltd, Director Mr Timothy Clark;

  • (b) the maximum number of Shares (being the nature of the financial benefit being provided) to be issued to the Related Parties (or their nominees) is:

  • (i) 2,000,000 Shares to Avost Holdings Pty Ltd; and

8

2552-04/CVS Notice of AGM 2014.doc

  • (ii) 2,000,000 Shares to Li Hwa Pty Ltd;

  • (c) the Shares will be issued to the Related Parties (their nominees) no later than 1 month after the date of the Meeting (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;

  • (d) the Shares will be issued for nil cash consideration, accordingly no funds will be raised;

  • (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 value of the Shares, based on the most recent trading price of Shares on ASX on 13 October 2014 of $0.005, is:

  • (i) $10,000 in the case of Shares to be issued to Avost Holdings Pty Ltd; and

  • (ii) $10,000 in the case of Shares to be issued to Li Hwa Pty Ltd;

  • (g) the relevant interests of the Related Parties in securities of the Company are set out below:

  2. Li Hwa Pty Ltd atf Li Hwa A/C holds 148,000 Shares. 200,000 Shares are held by PJ Clark atf Timothy J Clark Superfund A/C.

(h) the remuneration and emoluments from the Company to the Related Parties for the previous financial year and the proposed remuneration and emoluments for the current financial year are set out below:

Related Party Current Financial
Year (2015)
Previous
Financial Year
(2014)
Avost Holdings Pty Ltd1 $24,000 $24,000
Li Hwa Pty Ltd2 $24,000 $24,000
  1. Paid to Mr Justin Vost.

  2. Paid to Mr Timothy Clark.

(i) if the Shares are issued to the Related Parties, a total of 4,000,000 Shares would be issued. This will increase the number of Shares on issue from 294,271,112 to 298,271,112 (assuming that no Options are exercised and no shares other than those contemplated by the Resolutions of this Notice are issued) with the effect that the shareholding of existing Shareholders would be diluted by an aggregate of 1.34%, comprising 0.67% by Avost Holdings Pty Ltd and 0.67% by Li Hwa Pty Ltd.

9

2552-04/CVS Notice of AGM 2014.doc

  • (j) the trading history of the Shares on ASX in the 12 months before the date of this Notice is set out below:
Price Date
Highest $0.006 16 December 2013
Lowest $0.001 30 June 2014
Last $0.005 13 October 2014
  • (k) the primary purpose of the issue of the Shares to the Related Parties is to compensate for the minimal cash remuneration provided to Justin Vost and Timothy Clark for their performance as Directors;

  • (l) Mr Justin Vost declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 3 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that he controls Avost Holdings Pty Ltd, which will be issued Shares in the Company should Resolution 3 be passed. However, in respect of Resolution 4, Mr Justin Vost recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4 for the following reasons:

  • (i) the issue of Shares to Li Hwa Pty Ltd (or its nominee) will align the interests of Mr Timothy Clark with those of Shareholders;

  • (ii) the issue of the Shares is a reasonable and appropriate method to provide cost effective remuneration 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 remuneration were given to Mr Timothy Clark; and

  • (iii) 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;

  • (m) Mr Timothy Clark declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 4 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that he controls Li Hwa Pty Ltd, which will be issued Shares in the Company should Resolution 4 be passed. However, in respect of Resolution 3, Mr Timothy Clark recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3 for the following reasons;

  • (i) the issue of Shares to Avost Holdings Pty Ltd (or its nominee) will align the interests of Mr Justin Vost with those of Shareholders;

  • (ii) the issue of the Shares is a reasonable and appropriate method to provide cost effective remuneration 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 remuneration were given to Mr Justin Vost; and

  • (iii) 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;

  • (n) with the exception of Mr Justin Vost and Mr Timothy Clark, no other Director has a personal interest in the outcome of Resolutions 3 and 4;

10

2552-04/CVS Notice of AGM 2014.doc

  • (o) Collin Vost recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3 for the reasons set out in paragraph (m) and for Resolution 4 for the reasons set out in paragraph (l);

  • (p) in forming their recommendations, each Director considered the experience of each other Related Party, the current market price of Shares and the current market practices when determining the number of Shares to be issued; and

  • (q) 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 3 and 4.

Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required in order to issue the Shares to the Related Parties as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of 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.

5. RESOLUTION 5 – PLACEMENT – SHARES

5.1 General

Resolution 5 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of up to 100,000,000 Shares at an issue price of a 10% discount to the volume weighted average of the Company’s Shares over the 5 days of trading on the ASX immediately prior to the issue of the Shares ( Placement ).

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.

The effect of Resolution 5 will be to allow the Company to issue the Shares pursuant to the 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.

5.2 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 Placement:

  • (a) the maximum number of Shares to be issued is 100,000,000;

  • (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 progressively;

  • (c) the issue price of the Shares will be no more than a 10% discount to the volume weighted average of the Company’s Shares over the 5 days of trading on the ASX immediately prior to the issue of the Shares;

  • (d) the Directors will determine to whom the Shares will be issued but these persons will not be related parties of the Company;

11

2552-04/CVS Notice of AGM 2014.doc

  • (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 Company intends to use the funds raised from the Placement towards reduction of current liabilities and loans and to assess new ventures and general working capital.

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) delivery to Shop 12 “South Shore Piazza”, 85 South Perth Esplanade, South Perth;

  • (b) post to Cervantes Corporation Limited, P.O. Box 1196, South Perth, WA 6951; or

  • (c) facsimile to the Company on facsimile number +61 8 9367 2450; or
