Explanatory Statement

Bevond Sportswear International Limited

ACN 108 042 593

RATIFICATION OF ISSUE OF SHARES (Resolutions 1 and 2) $\mathbf{1}$ .

Resolutions 1 and 2 seek shareholder approval to ratify the previous issues of shares by the Company.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (subject to certain exceptions, none of which are relevant here) requires the prior approval of the members for an issue of equity securities if those equity securities will, when aggregated with the equity securities issued by the Company during the previous 12 months, exceed 15% of the number of ordinary shares on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 provides that, where a company in a general meeting ratifies an issue of equity securities, the issue will be treated as having been made with the approval of the members for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.1, thereby enabling the company to issue further equity securities without exceeding the 15% capacity in a 12 month period.

Resolutions 1 and 2 propose the ratification and approval of all issues of securities made in the previous 2 months without prior member approval for the purposes of satisfying the requirements of ASX Listing 7.4. By adopting this course, the Company will be well placed to readily take advantage of opportunities as they arise.

The information required to be provided to members to satisfy ASX Listing Rule 7.4 is specified in ASX Listing Rule 7.5.

In compliance with the information requirements of ASX Listing Rule 7.5, shareholders are advised of the following particulars in relation to the allotment and issue of equity securities:

  • 5,026,035 fully paid ordinary shares were issued to Roan Industries Pty Ltd (ACN 010 000 $\circ$ 003) and 1,256,509 fully paid ordinary shares were issued to Furneaux Management Pty Ltd (ACN 126 199 755) on 6 June 2008 in repayment of \$250,000 of a \$1.7M finance facility arranged by Furneaux Equity Limited as part of the financing of the Company's acquisition of Kombat Pty Ltd in November 2007 at an issue price of \$0.04 per share; and
  • 17,979,219 fully paid ordinary shares were issued to Furneaux Equity Limited ACN 124 464 366 (Furneaux) in repayment of the loan facility provided to the Company by Furneaux as follows:
  • 8,888,888 on 23 May 2008 at an issue price of \$0.04 per share; and $\circ$
  • 9,090,331 on 13 June 2008 at an issue price of \$0.04 per share. $\Omega$

The equity issues to Roan Industries Pty Ltd, Furneaux Management Pty Ltd and Furneaux Equity Limited detailed above were of fully paid ordinary shares which rank equally in all respects from the date of allotment with existing ordinary fully paid shares.
