PROXY AND VOTING INSTRUCTIONS

Proxy Instructions

A member who is entitled to vote at a meeting may appoint:

  • one proxy if the member is only entitled to one vote; and
  • one or two proxies if the member is entitled to more than one vote.

Where more than one proxy is appointed each proxy may be appointed to represent a specific proportion of the member's voting rights. If the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy may exercise, each proxy may exercise half of the votes in which case any fraction of votes will be disregarded.

The proxy form (and the power of attorney or other authority, if any, under which the proxy form is signed) or a copy or facsimile which appears on its face to be an authentic copy of the proxy form (and the power of attorney or other authority) must be lodged with the Company's share registry not less than 48 hours before the time for holding the Meeting, or adjourned meeting as the case may be, at which the individual named in the proxy form proposes to vote.

The proxy form must be signed by the member or his/her attorney duly authorised in writing or, if the member is a corporation, in a manner permitted by the Corporations Act. A proxy given by a foreign corporation must be executed in accordance with the laws of that corporation's place of incorporation.

The proxy may, but need not, be a member of the Company.

A proxy form is attached to this Notice.

If you sign the proxy form and do not appoint a proxy, you will have appointed the Chair of the meeting as your proxy.

Corporate Representatives

Any corporation which is a member of the Company may authorise (by certificate under common seal or other form of execution authorised by the laws of that corporation's place of incorporation, or in any other manner satisfactory to the chairperson of the Meeting) a natural person to act as its representative at any general meeting.

Voting Entitlement

For the purposes of the Corporations Act and Corporations Regulations shareholders entered on the Company's Register of Members as at 11:00am (Melbourne time) on 20 December 2020 are entitled to attend and vote at the meeting.

On a poll, members have one vote for every fully paid ordinary share held. Holders of options or other convertible securities are not entitled to vote.

How the Chair Will Vote Undirected Proxies

Subject to the restrictions as set out in the Notice, the Chair of the Meeting will vote undirected proxies in favour of the proposed Resolution.

Please refer to the note on the front cover of the Notice regarding COVID-19 related restrictions, lodging proxies and/or attending the Meeting by Zoom.

This Memorandum should be read in conjunction with, and forms part of, the accompanying Notice.

BUSINESS

Resolution 1: Ratification of prior issue of shares

Resolution 1 seeks shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the prior issue of 400,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares (Placement Shares) at an issue price of $0.001 (0.1 cents) per Placement Share to unrelated sophisticated, professional and other exempt investors identified by the Company or who are clients of stockbroking firms who supported the Company's activities, raising $400,000 before costs (Placement).

The Company announced the Placement on 31 July 2020 and an Appendix 3B for the Placement Shares was released to ASX on that date. The Placement Shares were issued on 4 August 2020 and an Appendix 2A was released to ASX on that date. The Placement Shares were issued without shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions including ASX Listing Rule 7.1A, issue or agree to issue during any twelve (12) month period any equity securities, or other securities with rights to conversion to equity, if the number of those securities exceeds 15% of the share capital of the Company at the commencement of that twelve (12) month period. The Company obtained shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A to issue equity securities under the additional 10% placement capacity at its Annual General Meeting on 9 July 2020.

Of the 400,000,000 Placement Shares, 236,381,672 of the Placement Shares were issued under the placement capacity available to the Company under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and 163,618,328 of the Placement Shares were issued under the placement capacity available to the Company under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 provides that where a company's shareholders ratify the prior issue of securities, or an agreement to issue securities, made pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and/or ASX Listing Rule 7.1A (provided the previous issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and/or ASX Listing Rule 7.1A) those securities will be deemed to have been issued or agreed to be issued with shareholder approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and/or ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. The Company seeks approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.4 to refresh its capacity to make further issues without shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and/or ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.

If shareholders pass Resolution 1, the Placement Shares will be treated as not having used the placement capacity of the Company under the ASX Listing Rules and the Company will be able to issue equity securities using the refreshed placement capacity without shareholder approval. If shareholders do not pass Resolution 1 the Placement Shares will continue to use the placement capacity that is available to the Company under the ASX Listing Rules.

The following information is provided in accordance with the requirements of ASX Listing Rule 7.5:

  • The Placement Shares were issued to unrelated sophisticated, professional and other exempt investors identified by the Company or who are clients of stockbroking firms who supported the Company's activities.
  • The total number of securities issued was 400,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares (Placement Shares).
  • Placement Shares have the same terms and rights as, and rank equally with, the Company's other fully paid ordinary shares.
  • Placement Shares were issued on 4 August 2020 and an Appendix 2A was released to ASX on that date.
  • $400,000,000 before costs was raised from the issue of the Placement Shares, which were issued at an issue price of $0.001 (0.1 cents) per Placement Share. Funds raised have been, or will be, used for general working capital purposes.
  • A voting exclusion for Resolution 1 is contained in the Notice accompanying this Memorandum.

Director recommendation

The Directors unanimously recommend that shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.

COVID-19: RED SKY ENERGY LIMITED GENERAL MEETING

The health and safety of members and personnel, and other stakeholders, is the highest priority and the Company is acutely aware of the current circumstances resulting from COVID-19. While the COVID-19 situation remains volatile and uncertain, based on the best information available to the Board at the time of the Notice, the Company intends to conduct the Meeting virtually via Zoom. Details of how shareholders can register to attend the Meeting are set out on the cover of the Notice. The Company is also happy to accept questions from shareholders ahead of the Meeting in accordance with the Notice. Shareholders are recommended to lodge their directed proxy form appointing the Chair ahead of the Meeting as early as possible and in any event prior to the cut-off for proxy voting as set out in this proxy form.

HOW TO COMPLETE THIS SHAREHOLDER PROXY FORM

CHANGE OF ADDRESS

This form shows your address as it appears on Company's share register. If this information is incorrect, please make the correction on the form. Shareholders sponsored by a broker should advise their broker of any changes.

APPOINTMENT OF A PROXY

If you wish to appoint the Chair as your proxy, mark the box in Step 1. If you wish to appoint someone other than the Chair, please write that person's name in the box in Step 1. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company. A proxy may be an individual or a body corporate.

DEFAULT TO THE CHAIR OF THE MEETING

If you leave Step 1 blank, or if your appointed proxy does not attend the Meeting, then the proxy appointment will automatically default to the Chair of the Meeting.

VOTING DIRECTIONS – PROXY APPOINTMENT

You may direct your proxy on how to vote by placing a mark in one of the boxes opposite each resolution of business. All your shares will be voted in accordance with such a direction unless you indicate only a portion of voting rights are to be voted on the Resolution by inserting the percentage or number of shares you wish to vote in the appropriate box or boxes. If you do not mark any of the boxes on a given resolution, your proxy may vote as they choose to the extent they are permitted by law. If you mark more than one box on a resolution, your vote on that resolution will be invalid.

PLEASE NOTE: If you appoint the Chair as your proxy (or if he is appointed by default) but do not direct him how to vote on a resolution (that is, you do not complete any of the boxes "For", "Against" or "Abstain" opposite that resolution), the Chair may vote as he sees fit on that resolution.

APPOINTMENT OF A SECOND PROXY

You are entitled to appoint up to two persons as proxies to attend the Meeting and vote on a poll. If you wish to appoint a second proxy, an additional Proxy Form may be obtained by telephoning Advanced Share Registry Limited or you may copy this form and return them both together.

To appoint a second proxy you must:

  • (a) on each Proxy Form state the percentage of your voting rights or number of shares applicable to that form. If the appointments do not specify the percentage or number of votes that each proxy may exercise, each proxy may exercise half your votes. Fractions of votes will be disregarded; and
  • (b) return both forms together.

COMPLIANCE WITH LISTING RULE 14.11

In accordance to Listing Rule 14.11, if you hold shares on behalf of another person(s) or entity/entities or you are a trustee, nominee, custodian or other fiduciary holder of the shares, you are required to ensure that the person(s) or entity/entities for which you hold the shares are not excluded from voting on resolutions where there is a voting exclusion. Listing Rule 14.11 requires you to receive written confirmation from the person or entity providing the voting instruction to you and you must vote in accordance with the instruction provided.

By lodging your proxy votes, you confirm to the company that you are in compliance with Listing Rule 14.11.

CORPORATE REPRESENTATIVES

If a representative of a nominated corporation is to attend the Meeting the appropriate "Certificate of Appointment of Corporate Representative" should be produced prior to admission in accordance with the Notice of Meeting. A Corporate Representative Form may be obtained from Advanced Share Registry.
