This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the information of Shareholders in connection with the business to be transacted at the Annual General Meeting of the Company to be held at 10.00am (WST) on Tuesday, 25 October 2016. The Explanatory Statement should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Notice of Meeting.
FINANCIAL REPORTS
The Corporations Act requires the Company to lay before the Annual General Meeting the Financial report, the Directors’ report (including the remuneration report) and the Auditor’s report for the last financial year that ended before the Annual General Meeting.
No resolution is required for this item, but Shareholders will be provided with a reasonable opportunity to ask questions or make comments in relation to these reports. The Company’s auditor will also be present at the meeting and Shareholders will be given the opportunity to ask the auditor questions about the conduct of the audit, the preparation and content of the auditor’s report, the accounting policies adopted by the Company and the independence of the auditor.
RESOLUTION 1: ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT
A resolution for adoption of the Remuneration Report is required to be considered and voted on in accordance with the Corporations Act. The Remuneration Report details the Company’s policy on the remuneration of nonexecutive Directors, the Managing Director and senior executives and is set out in the Company’s Annual Report. The vote on the adoption of the Remuneration Report resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. However, the Board will take the outcome of the vote into consideration when reviewing the remuneration practices and policies of the Company.
Shareholders will be provided with a reasonable opportunity to ask questions and make comments on the Remuneration Report at the Annual General Meeting.
The Directors recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1.
RESOLUTION 2: RE-ELECTION OF MR GIANFRANCO TOMASI AS DIRECTOR
Mr Tomasi was elected as a Director of the Company on 27 October 2014. Rule 5.1 of the Company’s Constitution requires that at each annual general meeting one third of the Directors must retire from office. Rule 5.2 requires that the Directors to retire at an annual general meeting are those who have been in office the longest since their election. Accordingly, Mr Tomasi is required to resign and being eligible, has offered himself for re-election as a Director of the Company.
Mr Tomasi is the founder of the Company. He was the Chairman of the Company from 1978 until he retired from that role in March 2011. Mr Tomasi is a member of the Company’s Nomination and Remuneration Committee.
Mr Tomasi has over 40 years’ experience in the electrical construction industry and holds an Electrical Engineering Certificate (NSW) and is a Fellow of the Australian Institute of Company Directors.

RESOLUTIONS 3 AND 4: ISSUE OF PERFORMANCE RIGHTS TO THE MANAGING DIRECTOR FOR THE 2015/2016 FINANCIAL YEAR AND 2016/17 FINANCIAL YEAR
Background
Resolutions 3 and 4 seek Shareholder approval for the grant of Performance Rights to Mr Graeme Dunn, a Director of the Company, under the Company’s Senior Management Long Term Incentive Plan (the Plan). The Plan was last approved by Shareholders at the Company’s 2014 Annual General Meeting.
Under his employment agreement as Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Mr Dunn is entitled to receive a base salary, inclusive of superannuation of $650,000. In addition, Mr Dunn 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). Subject to the approval of Resolution 3 and Resolution 4, Mr Dunn will also be entitled to Performance Rights in relation to the Company’s performance over the period from 30 June 2015 to 30 June 2019, as appropriate. The Company’s executive remuneration structure is set out in more detail in the Remuneration Report in the 2016 Annual Report.
Based on the Plan (and as set out below), Shareholder approval is being sought to issue to Mr Dunn (or his nominee) 1,083,333 Performance Rights with respect to the 2015/16 financial year and 601,852 Performance Rights with respect to the 2016/17 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 Dunn 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 Dunn’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 Dunn, including the proposed grant of Performance Rights, is reasonable having regard to the circumstances of the Company, the duties and responsibilities of Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer and market levels of remuneration for Managing Directors and Chief Executive Officers of similar companies.
The Plan
The Plan was last approved by Shareholders at the 2014 Annual General Meeting. The main features of the Plan that are relevant to the issue of Performance Rights are summarised as follows:
-
Consideration Payable : It is intended that Performance Rights will be granted for no consideration, even though the Plan allows the Board to impose consideration on the grant of Performance Rights. A “Performance Right Invitation” issued by the Board will set out the amount of consideration payable, if any.
-
Vesting : Subject to the satisfaction of the performance conditions set out in the Performance Right Invitation, within 10 Business Days of the exercise of the Performance Rights, the Company shall allot and issue Shares to the eligible participant (or, if applicable, their nominee) without further action being required on the part of the eligible participant.
-
Retirement, Permanent Disablement, Redundancy or Death : Under the Plan, within 30 days of the eligible participant ceasing to be a senior manager by reason of retirement, permanent disablement, redundancy or death, the eligible participant (or their nominee or legal representative as applicable) may exercise the Performance Rights. To the extent that the conditions set out in the Performance Right Invitation have been satisfied, the Performance Rights will vest. All remaining Performance Rights will lapse.
-
Notwithstanding the above, in the event that a Participant ceases to be a Senior Manager as a result of retirement, permanent disablement or death then the Board may determine, in its absolute discretion, in relation to all or some of the Performance Rights, to:
-
(a) waive the Exercise and Vesting Conditions, in which case the participant (or their nominee or legal personal representative as applicable) may within 30 days of the participant ceasing to be a senior manager, exercise those Performance Rights; or
-
(b) allow the Performance Rights to continue to be exercisable until the expiry date, upon the satisfaction of the applicable exercise and vesting conditions.
-
Restriction on dealing with Shares : All Shares issued to a participant under the Plan will be subject to the Company’s Share Trading Policy. In addition, the Board has the discretion to impose further restrictions on Shares issued to a participant under the Plan in the Performance Right Invitation.

NOTICE OF AGM 2016
-
Takeover Bid or Change of Control : In the event of:
-
(a) a Change of Control of the Company; or
-
(b) approval by the court of a merger of the Company by way of scheme of arrangement,
-
an eligible participant may exercise all Performance Rights which have not been exercised or lapsed and will vest notwithstanding the conditions set out in the Performance Right Invitation.
Performance Conditions – Financial Year 2015/16 Performance Rights
Subject to Shareholder approval of Resolution 3, the Performance Rights to be issued 2015/2016 Financial Year 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 Dunn’s performance conditions for the 2015/2016 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 2015 to a Test Date of 30 June 2018.
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 Dunn’s TSR performance conditions will include:
• a threshold target of 18.5% per annum (compounded over the period from the Start Date to the Test Date); and • a stretch performance of 26.5% per annum (compounded over from the Start Date to the Test Date). The percentage of Mr Dunn’s Performance Rights that are tested against TSR which vest will be determined as follows:

Between 18.5% and 26.5% per annum compounded Pro-rata vesting between 50% and 100%.
At or above 26.5% per annum compounded 100% vesting
----- End of picture text -----
Absolute EPS
The Company’s EPS performance will be measured in the 2018 financial year. 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 Dunn’s EPS targets. Mr Dunn will only receive Performance Rights that are tested against EPS if he achieves at least the threshold target. The Performance Rights that are tested against EPS will vest as set out in the following table.

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 159,426,058.
(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 159,426,058 Shares. Subject to Resolutions 5 and 6 being approved by Shareholders the Company will have a capacity to issue:
-
(i) 23,913,908 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1; and
-
(ii) 15,942,605 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, subject to the Shareholder approval being granted under this Resolution.
In the event that Resolutions 5 and 6 are not approved by Shareholders the Company’s capacity to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1 and Listing Rule 7.1A will be 23,731,555 and 15,821,037 respectively.
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).

NOTICE OF AGM 2016
(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 may be 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.
==> picture [33 x 27] intentionally omitted <==
11 NOTICE OF AGM 2016
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) Resolutions 5 and 6 are approved by Shareholders.
-
(ii) The Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility.
-
(iii) 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%.
-
(iv) 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.
-
(v) 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.
-
(vi) 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.
-
(vii) The issue price is $0.53, being the closing price of the Shares on the ASX on 12 September 2016.
-
(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 24 August 2016, it stated that it was committed to targeting growth through acquisitions. 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.

NOTICE OF AGM 2016
-
(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 obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at last year’s Annual General Meeting held on 26 October 2015 but did not issue any shares under Listing Rule 7.1A.
-
(g) The total number of Equity Securities issued by the Company in the 12 months before the date of this Meeting was 2,810,666, being 1,215,688 Shares and 1,594,978 Performance Rights, which represents 1.78% of the total number of Equity Securities on issue at the commencement of this 12 month period. In accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A.6, the following details are provided in respect of all issues of securities in the 12 months preceding the date of the Meeting:
-
(i) 1,215,688 Shares were issued as part of the consideration for the acquisition of Datatel Communications Pty Ltd. Further information is provided in the explanatory statement to Resolutions 5 and 6.
-
(ii) 1,594,978 Performance Rights were issued;
-
(iii) on vesting of the Performance Rights, the Company will issue fully paid ordinary shares which will rank equally with all other ordinary shares on issue;
-
(iv) the Performance Rights were issued to senior executives including Mr Chris Douglass, a former Director of the Company, on 16 November 2015 pursuant to the Plan which received shareholder approval at the Company’s 2014 Annual General Meeting (a summary of the Plan is set out in the explanatory statement to Resolutions 3 and 4 above) ; and
-
(v) the Performance Rights were issued for nil consideration (accordingly there was no discount to closing market price on the date of issue) and no consideration is required to be paid on vesting.
-
(h) A voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice. At the date of this 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.
