The enclosed Proxy Form provides further details on appointing proxies and lodging Proxy Forms. If a Shareholder appoints a body corporate as its proxy and the body corporate wishes to appoint an individual as its representative, the body corporate should provide that person with a certificate or letter executed in accordance with the Corporations Act authorising him or her to act as that company's representative. The authority may be sent to the Company or its share registry in advance of the Annual General Meeting or handed in at the Annual General Meeting when registering as a corporate representative.

2. Resolution 1: Approval of Remuneration Report
Section 249L(2) of the Corporations Act requires a company to inform shareholders that a resolution on the remuneration report will be put at the annual general meeting. Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act requires a resolution that the remuneration report adopted be put to a vote. Resolution 1 seeks this approval.
In accordance with section 250R(3) of the Corporations Act, Shareholders should note that Resolution 1 is an "advisory only" Resolution which does not bind the Directors or the Company. However, the Directors take the discussion at the meeting and the outcome of the vote into account when considering the Company's remuneration practices.
Following consideration of the Remuneration Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2018, the Chair, in accordance with section 250SA of the Corporations Act, will give Shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Report.
If at least 25% of the votes cast on a resolution for the adoption of a Remuneration Report are voted against 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) would go up for re-election.
The Directors encourage all Shareholders to vote on Resolution 1.
3. Resolution 2: Re-election of Ryan Sofoulis
In accordance with clause 11.1(c) of the Constitution, at every annual general meeting, an election of Directors must be held whereby one or more Directors retire from office by rotation and are eligible for re-election. The Directors to retire are those who have been in office for 3 years since their appointment or last re-appointment or who have been longest in office since their appointment or last re-appointment or, if the Directors have been in office for an equal length of time, by agreement.

Section 208 of the Corporations Act
Section 208 of the Corporations Act states that a public company cannot give a "financial benefit" (including an issue of shares and options) to a "related party" of the Company unless one of the exceptions set out in section 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act apply, or the holders of ordinary securities have approved the giving of the financial benefit to the related party in a general meeting.
Mr Kris is a related party of the Company within the meaning specified under section 228 of the Corporations Act. Section 211 of the Corporations Act states that Shareholder approval is not needed to give a financial benefit that is remuneration to be given to a related party of a public company and to give the remuneration would be reasonable given:
- a) The circumstances of the public company giving the remuneration; and
- b) The related party's circumstances (including the responsibilities involved in the office or employment).
It is the view of the Directors that the exception set out in section 211 of the Corporations Act applies in the current circumstances, as the Board (excluding Mr Kris) has formed the view that the proposed issue of securities forms part of reasonable remuneration. In forming this opinion the Board took into consideration that the structure of the Employee Incentive Plan was recommended by independent external consultants, as was the calculation of the awards under the Plan. The awards under the Plan were approved by the Company's Remuneration Committee. Accordingly, the Directors have determined not to seek Shareholder approval under section 208 of the Corporations Act for the issue of securities to Mr Kris.
ASX Listing Rule 10.14
ASX Listing Rule 10.14 provides that a company must not issue equity securities to a director or an associate of a director of the company under an employee incentive scheme without the approval of holders of ordinary securities, or to a person whose relationship with the company or a related party of the company is, in ASX's opinion, such that approval should be obtained. Further, ASX Listing Rule 7.2 (Exception 14) states that approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required if shareholder approval is obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.14.
Mr Kris is a related party of the Company within the definition specified in ASX Listing Rule 19.12. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought under ASX Listing Rule 10.14 to permit the issue Securities to Mr Kris (and/or his nominees) as related parties of the Company on the terms set out in this Explanatory Statement.
The issue of the Securities under Resolution 3 will not affect the capacity of the Company to issue securities in the next 12 months under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, as those Securities (once issued) will be excluded from the calculations under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
For the purposes of Listing Rule 10.15, the following information is provided to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 5:
(a) Maximum number of securities to be issued
The number of Securities proposed to be issued is as follows:
| Security Description | Number |
|---|---|
| 2018 STI Rights | 507,307 |

1 Xavier Kris and/or his nominee

(e) Loans in relation to acquisition of Options

(f) Date by which entity will issue the securities
The Securities will be issued as soon as possible after the Annual General Meeting and in any event, no later than 12 months after the Annual General Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver of the ASX Listing Rules).
(g) Directors' recommendation
Other than Mr Xavier Kris, who does not make any recommendation in relation to the issue of Securities to himself, the Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.
5. Resolution 4: Approval of 10% Placement Facility
Resolution 4 is a special resolution which seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of Equity Securities totaling up to 10% of the issued capital of the Company under and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1A.
Listing Rule 7.1A
Listing Rule 7.1A enables eligible entities to issue Equity Securities totaling up to 10% of its issued share capital through placements over a 12 month period after the entity's 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 an eligible entity.
As Resolution 4 is a special resolution, at least 75% of the votes cast on Resolution 4 must be cast in favour of the Resolution in order for it to be passed.
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. As at the date of this Notice, the only quoted Equity Securities that the Company has on issue are its Shares.
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 Rules 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: 'A' has the same meaning as 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.
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 the 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 (set out above).
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 on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:
- the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or
- if the Equity Securities are not issued within 5 Trading Days of the date above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
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:
- the date that is 12 months after the date of the annual general meeting at which the approval is obtained; and
- 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).
For the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3A, the following information is provided to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 6:
(a) Minimum price at which the securities may be issued
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 on which trades in that class were recorded 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 Section 5(a)(ii), the date on which the Equity Securities are issued.
(b) Risk of dilution
If Resolution 6 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 table below. 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 Annual General 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 table below shows the dilution of existing Shareholders on the basis of the current market price of Shares and the number of ordinary securities for variable 'A' calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 assuming that the Proposed Transaction has completed and the Public Offer is fully subscribed.
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 at the date of this Notice. 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 general meeting; and
- (ii) two examples where the issue price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 50% as against the current market price.

Notes:
-
- Assumes the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility.
-
- 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%.
-
- 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 Annual General Meeting.
-
- 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.
-
- The issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares.
-
- The market price used is $0.355, being the closing price of Shares on 21 September 2018.
(c) Date by which the securities may be issued
The Company will only issue and allot the Equity Securities during the 10% Placement Period. The approval under Resolution 4 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 of the Company) or Listing Rule 11.2 (disposal of the main undertaking of the Company).
(d) Purposes for which the securities may be issued
The Company may seek to issue the Equity Securities for the following purposes:
- (i) non-cash consideration for the acquisition of new assets and investments. 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 may apply the funds raised towards, the review and evaluation of new acquisitions and investments (including expenses associated with such acquisitions and investments) and 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) Allocation policy for issues of securities
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 recipients of Equity Securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to factors including, but not limited to, the following:
- (i) the purpose of the issue;
- (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 effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;
- (iv) the financial situation and solvency of the Company;
- (v) prevailing market conditions; and
- (vi) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).
Recipients of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility have not been determined at the date of this Notice but are likely to be investors which are sophisticated or professional investors (or both) for the purposes of section 708 of the Corporations Act who are not related parties or associates of a related party of the Company.
(f) Details of previous issues of securities
During the 12 months preceding the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Company has issued 8,700,000 Shares, 258,823 Options and 2,218,218 Rights. The ordinary shares issued represent 7.7% of the total number of Equity Securities on issue at the commencement of that period.
