Shareholders should note that, following Shareholder approval at the Company’s Annual General Meeting held on 20 May 2015, the Company changed its financial year to end on 30 June each year to align its financial year end with peer companies. As part of this process, the Company has had an interim financial year of 31 December 2014 to 30 June 2015. Accordingly the Annual Report is for the six months ended 30 June 2015.
There is no requirement for Shareholders to approve the Annual Report.

4. Resolution 1 – Adoption of Remuneration Report
Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act provides that the Company is required to put the Remuneration Report to the vote of Shareholders. The Directors' Report contains a Remuneration Report which sets out the remuneration policy for the Company and reports the remuneration arrangements in place for the executive and non-executive directors.
Section 250R(3) of the Corporations Act provides that Resolution 1 is advisory only and does not bind the Directors of the Company. Of itself, a failure of Shareholders to pass Resolution 1 will not require the Directors to alter any of the arrangements in the Remuneration Report. However, the Directors take the decision at the Meeting and the outcome of the vote into account when considering the Company’s remuneration policy.
The Chairman will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders as a whole to ask about, or make comments on the Remuneration Report.
If at least 25% of the votes cast are voted against adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put to shareholders at the second annual general meeting a resolution proposing that another general meeting be held within 90 days, at which all of the Company’s Directors (other than the Managing Director) who were in office at the date of approval of the applicable Directors' Report would go up for re-election.
At the Company’s 2015 Annual General Meeting held on 20 May 2015 the remuneration report was approved by over 75% of shareholders.
The Chairman intends to exercise all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1. If the Chairman of the Meeting is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chairman is to vote on Resolution 1, by signing and returning the Proxy Form, you are considered to have provided the Chairman with an express authorisation for the Chairman to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chairman’s intention.
5. Resolution 2 – Re-election of Mr John Wood as a Director
Article 6.3(c) of the Constitution requires that one third of the Directors must retire at each annual general meeting (rounded down to the nearest whole number).
Article 6.3(f) provides that a Director who retires under Article 6.3(c) is eligible for re-election.
Pursuant to these Articles, Mr John Wood will retire by rotation and, being eligible, seek reelection.
Mr Wood has extensive experience in retail, property, sales and marketing, business management and tourism. He is current the Managing Director of National Lifestyle Villages ( NLV ) a company he founded in 1999. Mr Wood as CEO of NLV grew the business to win the prestigious Telstra WA Business of the Year award in 2007. He was also awarded the Rothwell’s Young Entrepreneur Award and the West Australian Young Achievers Award.
Prior to this Mr Wood established and managed the growth of Fleetwood Corporation’s manufactured homes division. He grew this business to be a market leader throughout the 1990s and was appointed an executive member of the industry association for 15 years in varying capacities including President.
6
The Board believes that Mr John Wood has performed the duties and responsibilities of a Director diligently and professionally, in the best interests of all Shareholders.
The Board unanimously supports the re-election of Mr John Wood.
Resolution 2 is an ordinary Resolution.
6. Resolution 3 – Approval of 10% Placement Capacity
6.1 General
Listing Rule 7.1A enables eligible entities to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued share capital through placements over a 12 month period after the annual general meeting ( 10% Placement Facility ). The 10% Placement Facility is in addition to the Company's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
An eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less. The Company is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 and at the date of this Notice, the Company’s market capitalisation is $14million. Therefore the Company is an eligible entity.
While the Company has no current intention to use the 10% Placement Facility, the Company is now seeking shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to have the ability, if required, to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility.
The exact number of Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Facility will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to Section 6.2(c) below).
The Company intends to continue to commercialise its business and will seek to pursue business development opportunities or potential acquisitions. The Company may use the 10% Placement Facility to assist with commercialisation of its business and to pursue business development opportunities or potential acquisitions.
The Directors of the Company believe that Resolution 3 is in the best interests of the Company and unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.
6.2 Description of Listing Rule 7.1A
- (a) Shareholder approval
The ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility is subject to shareholder approval by way of a special resolution at an annual general meeting.
- (b) Equity Securities
Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility must be in the same class as an existing quoted class of Equity Securities of the Company.
The Company, as at the date of the Notice, has on issue one class of quoted Equity Securities, being Shares.
- (c) Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility
7
Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that eligible entities which have obtained shareholder approval at an annual general meeting may issue or agree to issue, during the 12 month period after the date of the annual general meeting, a number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:
(A x D) – E
Where:
-
A is the number of shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:
-
(A) plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;
-
(B) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the 12 months;
-
(C) plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months with approval of holders of shares under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid shares under the entity's 15% placement capacity without shareholder approval;
-
(D) less the number of fully paid shares cancelled in the 12 months.
Note that A has the same meaning in Listing Rule 7.1 when calculating an entity's 15% placement capacity.
-
D is 10%
-
E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of the issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.
-
(d) Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A
The ability of an entity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A is in addition to the entity's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
The actual number of Equity Securities that the Company will have capacity to issue under Listing Rule 7.1A will be calculated at the date of issue of the Equity Securities in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to Section 6.2(c) above).
- (e) Minimum Issue Price
The issue price of Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A must be not less than 75% of the VWAP of Equity Securities in the same class calculated over the 15 Trading Days immediately before:
- (i) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or
8
-
(ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within five Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
-
(f) 10% Placement Period
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 earlier to occur of:
-
(i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained; or
-
(ii) the date of the approval by shareholders of a transaction under Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking),
( 10% Placement Period ).
6.3 Listing Rule 7.1A
The effect of Resolution 3 will be to allow the Directors to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the 10% Placement Period without using the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
Resolution 3 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative).
6.4 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A
Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, information is provided in relation to the approval of the 10% Placement Facility as follows:
-
(a) The Equity Securities will be issued at an issue price of not less than 75% of the VWAP for the Company's Equity Securities over the 15 Trading Days immediately before:
-
(i) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or
-
(ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within five Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
-
(b) If Resolution 3 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility, the existing Shareholders' voting power in the Company will be diluted as shown in the below table. There is a risk that:
-
(i) the market price for the Company's Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than on the date of the Meeting; and
-
(ii) the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for the Company's Equity Securities on the issue date or the
9
Equity Securities are issued as part of consideration for the acquisition of a new asset,
which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the Equity Securities.
The table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the current number of ordinary securities for variable "A" calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A(2) as at the date of this Notice.
The table also shows:
- (iii) two examples where variable “A” has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable “A” is based on the number of ordinary securities the Company has on issue. The number of ordinary securities on issue may increase as a result of issues of ordinary securities that do not require Shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or future specific placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders’ meeting; and
(iv) two examples of where the issue price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.
| Variable ‘A’ in Listing Rule 7.1A2 |
Dilution | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $0.095 50% decrease in Issue Price |
$0.19 Issue Price |

The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:
-
(v) The Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility.
-
(vi) No Options are exercised into Shares before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities.
-
(vii) The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued Share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.
-
(viii) The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Facility, based on that Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.
-
(ix) The table shows only the effect of issues of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.
-
(x) The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares. If the issue of Equity Securities includes listed Options, it is assumed that those listed Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.
-
(xi) The issue price is $0.19, being the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 23 October 2015.
-
(c) The Company will only issue the Equity Securities during the 10% Placement Period. The approval under Resolution 3 for the issue of Equity Securities pursuant to the 10% Placement Facility will cease to be valid in the event that Shareholders approve a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking).
-
(d) The Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for the following purposes:
-
(i) non-cash consideration in relation to the acquisition of new business opportunities or assets. In such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by Listing Rule 7.1A.3; or
-
(ii) cash consideration. In such circumstances, the Company intends to use the funds raised towards an acquisition of a new business opportunity or asset (which may include costs associated with such acquisition), and/or continued commercialisation of the Company’s business and/or general working capital.
The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A(4) and 3.10.5A upon issue of any Equity Securities.
- (e) The Company’s allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Facility. The identity of the recipients of Equity Securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factors including but not limited to the following:
11
-
(i) the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company, including but not limited to, rights issues or other issues in which existing security holders can participate;
-
(ii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;
-
(iii) the financial situation and solvency of the Company; and
-
(iv) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).
The recipients under the 10% Placement Facility have not been determined as at the date of this Notice but may include existing substantial Shareholders and/or new Shareholders who are not related parties or associates of a related party of the Company.
Further, if the Company is successful in acquiring new assets, it is likely that the recipients under the 10% Placement Facility will be the vendors of the new assets.
- (f) The Company previously obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at the Company’s 2014 AGM.
(g) In the 12 months preceding the date of the Meeting the Company issued a total of 155,867,646 Equity Securities which represent 94.05% of the total number of Equity Securities on issue at 30 September 2015. The Equity Securities issued in the preceding 12 months were as follows:
