3. Annual Report

There is no requirement for Shareholders to approve the Annual Report.

Shareholders will be offered the following opportunities:

  • (a) discuss the Annual Report which is available online at www.techgenmetals.com.au;

  • (b) ask questions or make comment on the management of the Company;

  • (c) ask the auditor questions about the conduct of the audit and the preparation and content of the Auditor’s Report.

  • (d) the independence of the auditor in relation to the conduct of the audit,

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 the Remuneration Report which sets out the remuneration policy for the Company and reports the remuneration arrangements in place for the executive Directors, specified executives and non-executive Directors.

10

Section 250R(3) of 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 Corporations Act also gives Shareholders the opportunity to remove the Board if the Remuneration Report receives a ‘no’ vote of 25% or more at two consecutive annual general meetings ( Two Strikes Rule ).

Under the Two Strikes Rule, where a resolution on the Remuneration Report receives a ‘no’ vote of 25% or more at two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders at the second annual general meeting a resolution on whether another meeting should be held (within 90 days) at which all Directors (other than the managing director) who were in office at the date of approval of the applicable Directors’ Report will cease to hold office immediately before that further meeting but may stand for reelection.

At the Company’s previous annual general meeting the votes cast against the Remuneration Report considered at that annual general meeting were less than 25%. Accordingly, a further resolution relating to the Two Strikes Rule is not relevant for this Annual General Meeting.

The Chair will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders as a whole to ask about, or make comments on the Remuneration Report.

The Chair intends to exercise all undirected proxies in favour of Resolution 1. If the Chair of the Meeting is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chair is to vote on Resolution 1, by signing and returning the Proxy Form, the Shareholder is considered to have provided the Chair with an express authorisation for the Chair to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chair’s intention.

5. Resolution 2 – Re-election of Director – Andrew Jones

==> picture [18 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

General

Clause 14.2 of the Constitution requires that at the Company’s annual general meeting in every year, one-third of the Directors for the time being, or, if their number is not a multiple of 3, then the number nearest one-third (rounded upwards to the nearest whole number), shall retire from office, provided always that no Director (except a managing director) shall hold office for a period in excess of 3 years, or until the third annual general meeting following his or her appointment, whichever is the longer, without submitting himself or herself for re-election.

Listing Rule 14.4 provides that a director of an entity must not hold office (without re-election) past the third annual general meeting following the director’s appointment or 3 years, whichever is longer.

A Director who retires by rotation under clause 14.2 of the Constitution and Listing Rule 14.4 is eligible for re-election.

Accordingly, Andrew Jones ( Mr Jones ) will retire in accordance with clause 14.2 of the Constitution and Listing Rule 14.4, and being eligible, seeks re-election.

(d) Listing Rule 7.1A and Listing Rule 7.3A

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, and subject to Resolutions 4 to 7, the Company has on issue 158,665,710 Shares and therefore has a capacity to issue:

  • (i) 23,799,856 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1; and

  • (ii) 15,866,571 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.

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 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 10 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 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 Meeting at which the approval is obtained;

  • (ii) the time and date of the entity’s next annual general meeting; or

  • (iii) the time and date of the approval by shareholders of the eligible entity’s ordinary securities 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 ).

Listing Rule 7.1A

The effect of Resolution 3 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 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) on the Resolution.

==> picture [21 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

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 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 10 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 (in the case of Listed Options, only if the Listed Options are exercised). There is a risk that:

  • (i) the market price for the Company’s Equity Securities in that class may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than of 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,

  • which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the Equity Securities.

The below 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 at the date of this Notice.

The table 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 or ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.

Note

The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

  1. The Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility.

  2. No Options (including any Options issued under the 10% Placement Facility) are exercised into Shares before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities;

  3. 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 at 10%.

  4. 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 the Shareholder’s holding at the date of the Meeting.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. The issue price is $0.035, being the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 10 October 2024.

  8. (c) The Company will only issue and allot the Equity Securities during the 10% Placement Period. The approval under Resolution 3 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 a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking).

  9. (d) The Company can only issue Equity Securities for cash consideration. In such circumstances, the Company intends to use the funds raised towards an acquisition of new assets or investments (including expenses associated with such acquisition), continued exploration and general working capital.

  10. (e) The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under the Listing Rule 7.1A(4) upon issue of any Equity Securities.

  11. (f) 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 the Equity Securities will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factors including but not limited to the following:

16

  • (i) the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company, including but not limited to, rights issue or other issue 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 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.

  • (g) The Company previously obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 24 November 2023. In the 12 months preceding the date of this 2024 Annual General Meeting, the Company issued a total of 20,430,085 Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, representing 26.47% of the total number of Equity Securities on issue at 24 November 2023. Details of the Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A in the preceding 12-month period are set out in Schedule 2.

  • (h) For the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 14.1A (and in addition to the disclosure in clause 6.4(b) above):

  • (i) if Resolution 3 is passed, the Directors will be able 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; and

  • (ii) if Resolution 3 is not passed, the Directors will not be able to issue the Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, and will have to either rely on the Company's existing 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 (from time to time), or (in the event that the Company’s 15% placement capacity is exhausted) the Company will be required to obtain prior shareholder approval under Listing Rules 7.1 before being able to issue such Equity Securities (which may result in the Company incurring further time and expense).

At the date of the Notice, the Company has not approached any particular existing Shareholder or security holder or an identifiable class of existing security holder to participate in the issue of the Equity Securities. As such, no voting exclusion statement has been included in this Notice.

The Directors of the Company believe Resolution 3 is in the best interest of the Company and its Shareholders and unanimously recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.

If Resolution 9 is not passed, the issue of the Lead Manager Options can still proceed, but the Lead Manager Options will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

13. Resolutions 10(a), (b) and (c)– Approval to Issue Options to Directors

==> picture [26 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

General

Resolutions 10(a)–(c) seek the approval of Shareholders for the issue of a total of 7,500,000 Options to Directors ( Director Options ) comprising 2,500,000 Director Option to Ms Maja McGuire ( Ms McGuire ), Mr Ashley Hood ( Mr Hood ) and Mr Andrew Jones ( Mr Jones ) ( Directors ) in accordance with sections 195(4) and 208 of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.14 (to be issued under the TG1 Employee Securities Incentive Plan approved by Shareholders on 24 November 2023 ( Plan )).

The Company proposes to issue the Director Options as follows:

25

Director Tranche Number Exercise Price Expiry Date
Ms McGuire Tranche 1 1,250,000 $0.07 3 years from date of
issue
Tranche 2 1,250,000 $0.0875 4 years from date of
issue
Mr Hood Tranche 1 1,250,000 $0.07 3 years from date of
issue
Tranche 2 1,250,000 $0.0875 4 years from date of

Mr Jones Tranche 1 1,250,000 $0.07 3 years from date of
issue
Tranche 2 1,250,000 $0.0875 4 years from date of
issue

The Director Options are being issued to incentivise and reward the Directors of the Company.

==> picture [27 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

Section 195(4) of the Corporations Act

Each of the Directors have a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolutions 10(a)– (c) (as applicable to each Director) by virtue of the fact that Resolutions 10(a)–(c) are concerned with the issue of Director Options to Directors. Section 195 of the Corporations Act essentially provides that a director of a public company may not vote or be present during meetings of directors when matters in which that director holds a material personal interest are being considered.

In the absence of Shareholder approval under section 195(4) of the Corporations Act, the Directors may not be able to form a quorum at Board meetings necessary to carry out the terms of these Resolutions. The Directors have accordingly exercised their right under section 195(4) of the Corporations act to put the issue to Shareholders to determine.

==> picture [27 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act regulates the provision of financial benefits to related parties by a public company. Section 208 of the Corporations Act prohibits a public company giving a financial benefit to a related party of that public company unless one of a number of exceptions applies.

A “financial benefit” is defined in the Corporations Act in broad terms and includes the issue of securities. For the purpose of the Meeting, a related party includes a director of the Company.

For the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act, the Directors are related parties of the Company by virtue of the fact that they are Directors of the Company.

Section 208 of the Corporations Act provides that for a public company, or an entity that a public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related third party of the public company, the public company or entity must:

  • (a) obtain the approval of the public company’s members in the manner set out in Sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and

  • (b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,

26

unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in Sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company is seeking the approval of Shareholders for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act in respect of the Director Options proposed to be issued to the Directors.

Given that all Directors have a material personal interest, the Directors cannot form a quorum to determine whether the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in Section 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act. Shareholder approval is therefore also sought for the purpose of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.

ASX Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolutions 10(a)–(c) are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with issuing 7,500,000 Director Options within three years after the date of the Meeting. As approval pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 is not required for the issue of the Director Options (because approval is being obtained under Listing Rule 10.14), the issue of the Director Options will not use up any of the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolutions 10(a)–(c) are not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the 7,500,000 Director Options to the Directors and the Company may consider alternative forms of remuneration in lieu of such issue.

==> picture [27 x 12] intentionally omitted <==

ASX Listing Rule 10.14

Listing Rule 10.14 provides that Shareholder approval must be obtained where the Company issues, or agrees to issue, securities under an employee incentive scheme to a Director of the Company, an Associate of the Director, or a person whose relationship with the Company, Director or Associate of the Director is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained.

The issue of the Director Options falls within Listing Rule 10.14.1 as the Company intends to issue the Director Options under the Company’s Plan. Accordingly, the issue of the Director Options requires the approval of Shareholders under Listing Rule 10.14.

Resolutions 10(a)–(c) seek the required Shareholder approval for the issue of Director Options to the Directors under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.14.

==> picture [27 x 11] intentionally omitted <==

1 Excluding superannuation

  • (m) no securities have previously been issued to the Directors under the Plan;

  • (n)

  • the Director Options are not being issued under any agreement;

  • (o) if the Director Options granted to the Directors are exercised, a total of 7,500,000 Shares would be allotted and issued. This will increase the number of Shares on issue from 158,665,710 to 166,165,710 (assuming that no other Options are exercised and no other Shares are issued) with the effect that the shareholding of existing shareholders would be diluted by an aggregate of 4.51%;

The market price of Shares during the term of the Director Options would normally determine whether or not the Director Options are exercised. If, at any time any of the Director Options are exercised and the Shares are trading on ASX at a price that is higher than the exercise price of the Director Options, there may be a perceived cost to the Company;

  • (p) the trading history of the Shares on ASX in the twelve (12) months before the date of this Notice of Meeting is set out below:
this Notice of Meeting is set out below:
Price Date
Highest $0.10 24 November 2023,
7 December 2023
Lowest $0.023 1 November 2023,
6 November 2023
Last $0.035 10 October 2024
  • (q) if Ms McGuire, Mr Hood and Mr Jones exercise all Director Options the subject of resolutions 10(a)–(c) and no other Shares were issued by the Company, they would hold 1.61%, 4.18% and 3.55% respectively of the issue capital of the Company, on an undiluted basis;

  • (r) in respect of Resolutions 10(a)–(c):

  • (i) the primary purpose of the grant of the Director Options is to reward the Directors and to provide cost effective consideration to the Directors for their ongoing commitment and contribution to the Company in their respective roles as Directors, whilst allowing the Company to maintain cash reserves for acquisitions and operations. In addition, the Board considers the grant of the Director Options to the Directors to be reasonable, given the necessity to attract high calibre professionals to the Company whilst maintaining the Company’s cash reserves;

29

  • (ii) the Board (other than in respect of the relevant Resolution that they have an interest in) considered the extensive experience and reputation of the relevant Director within the industry, the current market price of Shares and current market practices when determining the number and exercise price of the Director Options to be issued to the Directors. Relevantly, the exercise price of the Director Options is the price that is approximately one hundred per cent (100%) (for the first tranche of Options) and one hundred and fifty per cent (150%) (for the second tranche of Options) higher than the price of the Shares on ASX on the date when the consideration of the grant of the Director Options was decided by the Board; and

  • (iii) the Board does not consider there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company in issuing the Director Options to the Directors.

  • (s) each Director has a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolutions 10(a)– (c) on the basis that all the Directors (or their nominee/s) are to be issued Director Options. For this reason, the Directors do not believe that it is appropriate to make recommendations on Resolutions 10(a)–(c) of this Notice;

  • (t) details of the Director Options issued under the Plan will be published in the Company’s annual report relating to the period in which they were issued, along with a statement confirming that approval for the issue of the Director Options was sought and obtained under Listing Rule 10.14. Any additional persons covered by Listing Rule 10.14 who become entitled to participate in an issue of Securities under the Plan after this Resolution is approved and who were not named in the Notice, will not participate until approval is obtained under the relevant Listing Rule;

  • (u) the Board is not aware of any other information that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to allow them to make a decision whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass these Resolutions; and

  • (v) a voting exclusion statement is included for Resolutions 10(a)–(c) of this Notice.

SCHEDULE 8 – Summary Terms of Plan

A summary of the terms of the Plan is set out below:

  • (a) ( Eligible Participant): Eligible Participant means a person that:

  • (i) is an ‘ESS participant’ (as that term is defined in Division 1A of Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act) in relation to the Company for an invitation made on or after 1 October 2022; and

  • (ii) has been determined by the Board to be eligible to participate in the Plan from time to time.

  • (b) ( Purpose ): The purpose of the Plan is to:

  • (i) assist in the reward, retention and motivation of Eligible Participants;

  • (ii) link the reward of Eligible Participants to Shareholder value creation; and

  • (iii) align the interests of Eligible Participants with shareholders of the Group (being the Company and each of its Associated Bodies Corporate), by providing an opportunity to Eligible Participants to receive an equity interest in the Company in the form of Securities.

  • (c) ( Plan administration ): The Plan will be administered by the Board. The Board may exercise any power or discretion conferred on it by the Plan rules in its sole and absolute discretion except to the extent that it prevents the Company relying on the deferred tax concessions under Subdivision B3A-C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Cth). The Board may delegate its powers and discretion.

  • (d) ( Eligibility, invitation and application): The Board may from time to time determine that an Eligible Participant may participate in the Plan and make an invitation to that Eligible Participant to apply for Securities on such terms and conditions as the Board decides.

On receipt of an invitation, an Eligible Participant may apply for the Securities the subject of the invitation by sending a completed application form to the Company. The Board may accept an application from an Eligible Participant in whole or in part. If an Eligible Participant is permitted in the invitation, the Eligible Participant may, by notice in writing to the Board, nominate a party in whose favour the Eligible Participant wishes to renounce the invitation.

  • (e) ( Grant of Securities ): The Company will, to the extent that it has accepted a duly completed application, grant the Participant the relevant number of Securities, subject to the terms and conditions set out in the invitation, the Plan rules and any ancillary documentation required.

  • (f) ( Terms of Convertible Securities ): Each 'Convertible Security' represents a right to acquire one or more Shares (for example, under an option or performance right), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan.

Prior to a Convertible Security being exercised a Participant does not have any interest (legal, equitable or otherwise) in any Share the subject of the Convertible Security by virtue of holding the Convertible Security. Unless in ‘Special Circumstances’ (as defined in the Plan) with the consent of the Board, a Participant may not sell, assign, transfer, grant a security interest over, collateralise a margin loan against, utilise for the purposes of short selling, enter into a Derivative with reference to, or otherwise deal with a Convertible Security that has been granted to them. A Participant must not enter into any arrangement for the purpose of hedging their economic exposure to a Convertible Security that has been granted to them.

46

  • (g) ( Vesting of Convertible Securities ): Any vesting conditions applicable to the grant of Convertible Securities will be described in the invitation. If all the vesting conditions are satisfied and/or otherwise waived by the Board, a vesting notice will be sent to the Participant by the Company informing them that the relevant Convertible Securities have vested. Unless and until the vesting notice is issued by the Company, the Convertible Securities will not be considered to have vested. For the avoidance of doubt, if the vesting conditions relevant to a Convertible Security are not satisfied and/or otherwise waived by the Board, that Convertible Security will lapse.

  • (h) ( Exercise of Convertible Securities and cashless exercise ): To exercise an Convertible Security, the Participant must deliver a signed notice of exercise and, subject to a cashless exercise of Convertible Securities (see below), pay the exercise price (if any) to or as directed by the Company, at any time prior to the earlier of any date specified in the vesting notice and the expiry date as set out in the invitation. A Convertible Security may not be exercised unless and until that Convertible Security has vested in accordance with the Plan rules, or such earlier date as set out in the Plan rules.

  • (i) ( Cashless exercise of Convertible Securities ): At the time of exercise of the Convertible Securities, subject to Board approval at that time, the Participant may elect not to be required to provide payment of the exercise price for the number of Convertible Securities specified in a notice of exercise, but that on exercise of those Convertible Securities the Company will transfer or issue to the Participant that number of Shares equal in value to the positive difference between the Market Value of the Shares at the time of exercise and the exercise price that would otherwise be payable to exercise those Convertible Securities.

Market Value means, at any given date, the volume weighted average price per Share traded on the ASX over the 5 trading days immediately preceding that given date, unless otherwise specified in an invitation.

If the difference between the total exercise price otherwise payable for the Convertible Securities being exercised and the then market Value of the Share at the time of exercise and the exercise price is zero or negative, then the Eligible Participant will not be entitled to use the cashless exercise facility.

  • (j) ( Delivery of Shares on exercise of Convertible Securities ): As soon as practicable after the valid exercise of a Convertible Security by a Participant, the Company will issue or cause to be transferred to that Participant the number of Shares to which the Participant is entitled under the Plan rules and issue a substitute certificate for any remaining unexercised Convertible Securities held by that Participant.

  • (k) ( Forfeiture of Convertible Securities ): Where a Participant who holds Convertible Securities ceases to be an Eligible Participant or becomes insolvent, all unvested Convertible Securities will automatically be forfeited by the Participant, unless the Board otherwise determines in its discretion to permit some or all of the Convertible Securities to vest.

Where the Board determines that a Participant has acted fraudulently or dishonestly, acted negligently, acted in contravention of a Group policy or wilfully breached his or her duties to the Group, the Board will deem all unvested Convertible Securities held by that Participant to have been forfeited.

Unless the Board otherwise determines, or as otherwise set out in the Plan rules:

  • (i) any Convertible Securities which have not yet vested will be forfeited immediately on the date that the Board determines (acting reasonably and in good faith) that any applicable vesting conditions have not been met or cannot be met by the relevant date; and

  • (ii) any Convertible Securities which have not yet vested will be automatically forfeited on the expiry date specified in the invitation.

47

  • (l) ( Change of control ): If a change of control event occurs in relation to the Company, or the Board determines that such an event is likely to occur, the Board may in its discretion determine the manner in which any or all of the Participant's Convertible Securities will be dealt with, including, without limitation, in a manner that allows the Participant to participate in and/or benefit from any transaction arising from or in connection withthe change of control event.

  • (m) ( Rights attaching to Plan Shares ): All Shares issued under the Plan, or issued or transferred to a Participant upon the valid exercise of a Convertible Security, ( Plan Shares ) will rank pari passu in all respects with the Shares of the same class. A Participant will be entitled to any dividends declared and distributed by the Company on the Plan Shares and may participate in any dividend reinvestment plan operated by the Company in respect of Plan Shares. A Participant may exercise any voting rights attaching to Plan Shares.

  • (n) ( Disposal restrictions on Plan Shares): If the invitation provides that any Plan Shares are subject to any restrictions as to the disposal or other dealing by a Participant for a period, the Board may implement any procedure it deems appropriate to ensure the compliance by the Participant with this restriction.

For so long as a Plan Share is subject to any disposal restrictions under the Plan, the Participant will not:

  • (i) transfer, encumber or otherwise dispose of, or have a security interest granted over that Plan Share; or

  • (ii) take any action or permit another person to take any action to remove or circumvent the disposal restrictions without the express written consent of the Company.

  • (o) ( Adjustment of Convertible Securities ): If there is a reorganisation of the issued share capital of the Company (including any subdivision, consolidation, reduction, return or cancellation of such issued capital of the Company), the rights of each Participant holding Convertible Securities will be changed to the extent necessary to comply with the Listing Rules applicable to a reorganisation of capital at the time of the reorganisation.

If Shares are issued by the Company by way of bonus issue (other than an issue in lieu of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment), the holder of Convertible Securities is entitled, upon exercise of the Convertible Securities, to receive an allotment of as many additional Shares as would have been issued to the holder if the holder held Shares equal in number to the Shares in respect of which the Convertible Securities are exercised.

Unless otherwise determined by the Board, a holder of Convertible Securities does not have the right to participate in a pro rata issue of Shares made by the Company or sell renounceable rights.

  • (p) ( Participation in new issues ): There are no participation rights or entitlements inherent in the Convertible Securities and holders are not entitled to participate in any new issue of Shares of the Company during the currency of the Convertible Securities without exercising the Convertible Securities.

  • (q) ( Compliance with Applicable Laws ): Notwithstanding the Plan rules or any terms of a Security, no Security may be offered, granted, vested or exercised, and no Share may be issued or transferred, if to do so would contravene any applicable laws.

Where monetary consideration is payable by the Eligible Participant, and in respect to Convertible Securities where the Exercise Price on exercise of those Convertible Securities is greater than zero, the Company must reasonably believe when making an invitation:

  • (i) the total number of Plan Shares that are, or are covered by the Securities that may be issued under an invitation; and

48

  • (ii) the total number of Plan Shares that are, or are covered by the Securities that have been issued, or could have been issued in connection with the Plan in reliance on Division 1A of Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act at any time during the previous 3 year period prior to the date the invitation is made,

does not exceed:

  • (iii) if the Constitution specifies an issue cap percentage, that percentage; or

  • (iv) if the Constitution does not specify an issue cap percentage, 5% (or such other maximum permitted under any Applicable Law),

of the total number of Shares on issue at the date of the invitation.

  • (r) ( Amendment of Plan ): Subject to the following paragraph, the Board may at any time amend any provisions of the Plan rules, including (without limitation) the terms and conditions upon which any Securities have been granted under the Plan and determine that any amendments to the Plan rules be given retrospective effect, immediate effect or future effect.

No amendment to any provision of the Plan rules may be made if the amendment materially reduces the rights of any Participant as they existed before the date of the amendment, other than an amendment introduced primarily for the purpose of complying with legislation or to correct manifest error or mistake, amongst other things, or is agreed to in writing by all Participants.

  • (s) ( Plan duration ): The Plan continues in operation until the Board decides to end it. The Board may from time to time suspend the operation of the Plan for a fixed period or indefinitely, and may end any suspension. If the Plan is terminated or suspended for any reason, that termination or suspension must not prejudice the accrued rights of the Participants.

If a Participant and the Company (acting by the Board) agree in writing that some or all of the Securities granted to that Participant are to be cancelled on a specified date or on the occurrence of a particular event, then those Securities may be cancelled in the manner agreed between the Company and the Participant.
