RESOLUTION 5: APPROVAL OF THE SENIOR MANAGEMENT LONG TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

Background

Resolution 5 seeks Shareholder approval for the Company’s Senior Management Long Term Incentive Plan (Plan). Pursuant to Listing Rule 7.2, exception 9(b), if Shareholder Approval for resolution 5 is granted, the issue of Options and Performance Rights under the Plan will be exempt from the 15% annual limit on the issue of new securities without shareholder approval for a period of 3 years from the date of the approval. The Plan was last approved by Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held on 28 November 2011.

The Plan has two aspects to it as it enables the Company to grant long term incentives in the form of Options and/or Performance Rights to senior management. Senior management, as defined in the Plan, are the full-time or part-time employees (including the Managing Director and other Executive Directors) of the Company and its subsidiaries (Group) whom the Board considers, act in a senior management roles within the Group.

The Board believes that the Group will benefit from being able to provide the Group’s senior management with an opportunity to acquire an ownership interest in the Company through the grant of Options.

The Board also believes that the Group will benefit from the flexibility of having an equity based plan allowing the Board to grant Performance Rights which will only vest on the satisfaction of appropriate performance conditions set by the Board.

The Board believes that grants of Performance Rights or Options made to eligible participants under the Plan will provide a powerful tool to underpin the Group’s employment strategy, and that the implementation of the Plan will:

(a) recognise the ability and efforts of senior managers who have contributed to the success of the Group;

• (b) provide incentives to the senior managers to achieve the long terms objectives of the Group and to improve

• the performance of the Group;

• (c) attract staff of experience and ability to work for the Group; and

• (d) foster and promote loyalty between staff and its senior managers.

Since the last approval by Shareholders, the Company has issued 4,112,250 Performance Rights and nil Options to senior management personnel under the Plan.

Summary of the Plan

NOTICE OF AGM 2014

RESOLUTION 6: ISSUE OF PERFORMANCE RIGHTS TO THE MANAGING DIRECTOR FOR THE 2014/2015 FINANCIAL YEAR

Background

Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval for the grant of Performance Rights to Mr Simon High, the Managing Director of the Company, under the Company’s Senior Management Long Term Incentive Plan (the Plan). Shareholder approval of the Plan is sought under Resolution 5.

Under his employment agreement Mr High is currently entitled to receive a base salary, inclusive of superannuation of $825,185. In addition, Mr High is also entitled to a variable Short Term Incentive cash bonus of up to 50% of his base salary (depending on the achievement of certain short term objectives) and a Long Term Incentive in the form of Performance Rights with respect to the Company’s performance over the periods from 30 June 2012 to 30 June 2015 and 30 June 2013 to 30 June 2016 respectively. Subject to the approval of Resolution 6, Mr High will also be entitled to Performance Rights in relation to the Company’s performance over the period from 30 June 2014 to 30 June 2017.

The Company’s executive remuneration structure is set out in more detail in the Remuneration Report in the 2014 Annual Report.

Based on the Plan (and as set out below), Shareholder approval is being sought to issue to Mr High 842,026 Performance Rights with respect to the 2014/15 financial year. These Performance Rights are subject to specific performance conditions (as set out below) and will not vest into Shares until such time as the performance conditions are met.

The Non-Executive Directors believe that it is appropriate to provide Mr High with a long term incentive element in his remuneration package. The Non-Executive Directors also believe that Performance Rights, rather than Options, are a better alternative to remunerate executives who are tasked with achieving certain specific strategic outcomes. The grant of Performance Rights is intended to align Mr High’s performance with successful Company outcomes for the benefit of Shareholders and also to provide him with an incentive to remain in the Company.

The Non-Executive Directors believe that the remuneration for Mr High, including the proposed grant of Performance Rights, is reasonable having regard to the circumstances of the Company, the duties and responsibilities of the Managing Director and market levels of remuneration for managing directors of similar companies.

The Plan

The main features of the Plan that are particular to the issue of Performance Rights are summarised in the explanatory notes to Resolution 5 above.

Performance Conditions

Subject to Shareholder approval, the Performance Rights to be issued will not vest (and the underlying Shares will not be issued) unless certain performance conditions have been satisfied. The grant of Performance Rights is designed to reward long term sustainable business performance which is aligned to the long term strategic objectives of the Company.

It is proposed that 50% of Mr High’s performance conditions for the 2014/2015 Financial Year will be performance tested against TSR performance, and the other 50% be tested against EPS performance over a 3 year period from a Start Date of 30 June 2014 to a Test Date of 30 June 2017.

Absolute TSR

TSR measures the return received by shareholders from holding shares in a company over a particular period. TSR is calculated by taking into account the growth in a company’s share price over the period as well as the dividends received during that period. The formula for calculating TSR is:

– (Share Price at Test Date Share Price at Start Date) + ($ Dividends Reinvested) Share Price at Start Date

A volume weighted average share price (VWAP) will be used to determine Share Price at the initial Test Date and Share Price at Start Date. The VWAP for the Share Price at Start Date will be based on the VWAP over the one week period prior to the start of the relevant performance period and the VWAP for the Share Price at the Test Date will be based on the VWAP over the one week period for the end of the relevant performance period. Mr High’s TSR performance conditions will include:

• a threshold target of 8% per annum (compounded over the period from the Start Date to the Test Date); and

• a stretch performance of 15% per annum (compounded over from the Start Date to the Test Date).

8 NOTICE OF AGM 2014

The percentage of Mr High’s Performance Rights that are tested against TSR which vest will be determined as follows:

Between 8% and 15% per annum Pro-rata vesting between 50% and 100%.
compounded
At or above 15% per annum compounded 100% vesting
----- End of picture text -----

Absolute EPS

The Company’s EPS performance will be measured over the relevant period from the Start Date to the Test Date. Absolute EPS measures the portion of a company’s profit allocated to each outstanding ordinary share and serves as an indicator of a company’s profitability. It is prescribed by the accounting standards and set out in the Company’s Financial Reports.

A threshold target and a stretch target will also be used for Mr High’s EPS targets.

NOTICE OF AGM 2014

RESOLUTION 7: APPROVAL OF 10% PLACEMENT FACILITY

Background

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A enables eligible entities to issue “Equity Securities” (being shares, options and other securities as defined in the ASX Listing Rules) up to 10% of their issued 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 ASX 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 an eligible entity.

The Company is now seeking shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to have the ability to Issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility.

The actual number of Equity Securities that the Company will have capacity to issue under the 10% Placement Facility will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as described below).

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 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 this Notice of Meeting, has on issue one class of Equity Securities, being ordinary shares. The number of ordinary shares currently on issue is 161,523,130.

(c) Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility

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

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 ordinary shares under the entity’s 15% placement capacity without shareholder approval; and

• (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.

At the date of this Notice, the Company has on issue 161,523,130 Shares. Therefore the Company will have a capacity to issue:

• (i) 24,228,469 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1; and

• (ii) 16,152,313 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, subject to the Shareholder approval being granted under this Resolution.

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 (as described above).

10 NOTICE OF AGM 2014

(e) Minimum Issue Price

The issue price of Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A must be not less than 75% of the Volume Weighted Average Price (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

• (ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 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), or such longer period if allowed by ASX (10% Placement Period).

Listing Rule 7.1A

The effect of Resolution 7 will be to allow the Directors to issue the 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 7 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).

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 5 Trading Days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.

• (b) If Resolution 7 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 following 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 Equity Securities are issued as part of the 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 following table 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 described above) as at the date of this notice of meeting.

The table also shows:

• (i) 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

• (ii) two examples of where the Issue Price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.

• The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

• (i) The Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility.

• (ii) 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%.

• (iii) 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.

• (iv) The table shows only the effect of issue of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

• (v) The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares. If the issue of Equity Securities includes options, it is assumed that those options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.

• (vi) The issue price is $0.58, being the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 10 September 2014.

• (c) The Company will only issue and allot the Equity Securities during the 10% Placement Period. The approval under Resolution 7 for the issue of the Equity Securities 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) In the Company’s full year results announcement on 26 August 2014, it stated that it was continuing to explore acquisitions that would provide the Company with increased scale and competence and address the market move to integrated packages. Accordingly, and subject to paragraph (c) above, the Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for the purpose of funding any such acquisitions as follows:

• (i) Non-cash consideration. 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 the consideration for any acquisition.

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 allottees of Equity Securities will be

• determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factors including, but not limited to, the following:

• (i) the identification of appropriate acquisition opportunities and consideration of the appropriate ways in which to fund the consideration for such acquisitions;

• (ii) 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;

• (iii) the financial situation and solvency of the Company;

• (iv) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company; and

• (v) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisors (if available).

The allottees 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. If the Company is successful in acquiring new businesses, assets or investments, the allottees under the 10% Placement Facility may include vendors of the new businesses, assets or investments.

(f) The Company has not previously obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A.

• (g) A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice. At the date of the Notice, the Company has not

• approached any particular existing Shareholder to participate in an issue of Equity Securities. No existing

• Shareholder’s votes will therefore be excluded under the voting exclusion in this Notice.

• The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 7.
