ORDINARY RESOLUTIONS
2. Resolution 1 Adoption of 2021 Remuneration Report
In accordance with Section 300A(1) of the Corporations Act the Remuneration Report is included in the Directors Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2021.
The Remuneration Report sets out details of the remuneration received by the directors and key Company executives, in addition to describing Board policy in respect of remuneration. Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder approval of the adoption of the Remuneration Report by the Company.
The outcome of the vote on this resolution is advisory only and not binding on the Company or the Board.
The Corporations Act provides that members of the Key Management Personnel ( KMP ) (as set out on page 10 of the Company's 2021 Annual Report, and is defined in the Corporation Act to include the Chairman), whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report (and any closely related party of those members) are not permitted to vote on a resolution to approve the Remuneration Report.
Sections 250U to 250Y of Corporations Act provide for a ‘two strikes and re-election’ process in relation to the shareholder vote on the Remuneration Report provide that:
-
A ‘first strike’ will occur if this Remuneration Report resolution receives a ‘no’ vote of 25% or more. If this occurs, the Company’s subsequent remuneration report must contain an explanation of the Board’s proposed action in response to the ‘no’ vote or an explanation of why no action has been taken by the Board.
-
A ‘second strike’ will occur if the resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report at the 2022 Company Annual General Meeting also receives a ‘no’ vote of 25% or more. If this occurs, shareholders will vote at that Annual General Meeting to determine whether the Directors will need to stand for re-election at a separate, subsequent meeting (the ‘spill resolution’). If the spill resolution passes with 50% or more of eligible votes cast, the spill meeting must take place within 90 days.
The Company has not received a first strike.
The Remuneration Report is set out in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report which can be viewed online at the Company’s website, www.titomic.com on the “Financials” page under “Investors & Press”.
Voting Restrictions
KMP and their closely related parties are not permitted to vote on this Resolution. KMPs of the Company are the Directors of the Company and those other persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company, directly or indirectly. The Remuneration Report identifies the Company’s KMPs for the financial year ending 30 June 2021. ‘Closely related parties’ are defined in the Corporations Act, and include certain of their family members, dependents and companies they control.
However, a KMP may cast a proxy where the proxy specifies in writing how the KMP is to vote (except proxies cast on behalf of another KMP). The Chair is permitted to vote undirected proxies where the shareholder expressly authorises the Chair to exercise the proxy.
Accordingly, if you have appointed the Chair as your proxy you must either direct the Chair how to vote, otherwise, under the proxy form you are expressly authorising the Chair to vote undirected proxies notwithstanding that the Chair or KMP may benefit.
Board Recommendation
The Board abstains from making a recommendation in relation to shareholders voting on Resolution 1.

6. Resolutions 5 Ratification of prior issue of Shares under the Placement
6.1. Background to the Placement
On 15 October 2021, the Company announced that it had received firm commitments from sophisticated and professional investors (who are all unrelated parties of the Company) to subscribe for 34,096,155 Shares (as well as 519,230 Shares to be issued subject to shareholder approval at this meeting) at an issue price of $0.26 per Share to raise $9,000,000 (before costs) ( Placement ).
In respect of the Shares issued under the Placement ( Placement Shares ):
-
a) 23,000,000 Shares were issued pursuant to the Company's 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1; and
-
b) 11,615,385 Shares were issued pursuant to the Company's 10% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.
Subject to Shareholder approval being received under Resolution 5, the Company has agreed to grant 1 free attaching Option for every Placement Share subscribed for and issued ( Attaching Options ). The Attaching Options will have an exercise price of $0.40 per Option and will expire two years from the date of issue. The Company will seek quotation of the Attaching Options. Further terms of the Attaching Options are set out in Schedule 1.
The Attaching Options will carry bonus Options so that on exercise, a further Option will be issued for every 2 Attaching Options exercised ( Bonus Options ). The Bonus Options will have an exercise price of $0.60 per Share and will expire on 30 June 2024. The Company will not apply for quotation of the Bonus Options. Further terms of the Bonus Options are set out in Schedule 2.
The Company intends to apply the funds raised from the Placement:
-
a) to accelerate the commercialisation of the Company through investment in joint venture operations, establishing offshore sales offices and operational facilities;
-
b) for costs of the Placement (including the Lead Managers' fees); and
-
c) to fund working capital.
6.2. ASX Listing Rules 7.1, 7.1A and 7.4
ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue, without approval of its shareholders, more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period.
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that in addition to issues permitted without prior shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, an entity that is eligible and obtains shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A may issue or agree to issue during the period for which the approval is valid a number of quoted equity securities which represents 10% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period as adjusted in accordance with the formula in ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
The Company obtained shareholder approval to increase its placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A at the annual general meeting held on 28 January 2021.
As the issue of Placement Shares does not fall within any of the specified exceptions to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and has not yet been approved by Shareholders, the issue of Placement Shares used up part of the Company’s 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and 10% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. This reduces the Company’s capacity to issue further equity securities without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of the Placement Shares.
Under ASX Listing Rule 7.4, if a company's shareholders approve an issue of equity securities after it has been made or agreed to be made, that issue or agreement to issue equity securities is treated as having been made with Shareholder approval for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (provided that the issue or agreement did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1).
By ratifying the issue of the Placement Shares, the Company will retain the flexibility to issue equity securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and its 10% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A (as applicable), without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.
Accordingly, the Company is seeking Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the issue of the Placement Shares the subject of Resolutions 5.
If Resolution 5 is not passed, the Placement Shares will be included in calculating the Company’s 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and its 10% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the date of issue of those securities.
If Resolution 5 is passed, the Company will be able to preserve its 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and its 10% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A to allow a higher number of equity securities to be issued by the Company without prior Shareholder approval.
6.3. Information required by Listing Rule 7.5

| Intended use of funds | The Company intends to apply the funds raised from the Placement: a) to accelerate the commercialisation of the Company through investment in joint venture operations, establishing offshore sales offices and operational facilities; b) for costs of the Placement (including the Lead Managers' fees); and c) to fund working capital. |
| Voting exclusion | A voting exclusion statement is included in Resolution 5 of this Notice |
6.4. Board Recommendation
The Directors do not (save for as otherwise set out in this Notice) currently have any specific intention to make any further issue of securities without approval of shareholders under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.1A in the next 12 months, unless such issue falls under a relevant exception. However, the Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company to maintain its ability to issue securities under the relevant placement capacities as this will enhance the
Company’s flexibility to finance its operations through raising equity capital, should the Directors consider it to be in the best interests of the Company to do so.
Accordingly, the Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolutions 5.

7.1. Background

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits a public company from giving a financial benefit to a related party of a public company unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within one of the relevant exceptions, or prior shareholder approval is obtained to the giving of the financial benefit.
A related party includes directors of the Company under section 228 of the Corporations Act. Section 229 of the Corporations Act defined financial benefit broadly and includes issuing securities, granting an option or providing finance to a related party.
9.2. ASX Listing Rule 10.14
ASX Listing Rule 10.14 requires a listed company to obtain shareholder approval (by ordinary resolution) prior to the issue of securities (which includes an option or right to subscribe for a security) under an employee incentive scheme to a director of the company.
ASX Listing Rule 10.11 requires a listed company to obtain shareholder approval (by ordinary resolution) prior to the issue of equity securities to a related party of the company. ASX Listing Rule 10.12 exception 8, provides an exception to ASX Listing Rule 10.11 where an issue of equity securities is made under an employee incentive scheme with the approval of shareholders under ASX Listing Rule 10.14. As approval is being sought under ASX Listing Rule 10.14, approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.11 and ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required.
Ms Mira Ricardel is a director of the Company for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.14.1. Being a director of the Company, she is also a related party of the Company for the purposes of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act.
9.3. Proposed grant of Options:
It is proposed that the Company issues, in aggregate 2,500,000 Options to Ms Mira Ricardel on the terms set out in Schedule 3 .
These Options are intended to form part of the director's remuneration package, with respect to Ms Ricardel for the four years starting 1 July 2021.
9.4. Approvals
Shareholder approval is sought for the purposes of both ASX Listing Rule 10.11 and Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act with respect to the issue of the Options to Ms Ricardel pursuant to the employee incentive scheme and relevant terms of issue.
The issue of the Options to Ms Ricardel is conditional on the passing of Resolution 4.
9.5. Technical information required by Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.15
| Name of person | Relationship of person | Relationship of person | Remuneration package | Number and class of securities to be issued |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ms Mira Ricardel (or nominee) |
Ms Ricardel is a Non- Executive Director |
Ms Ricardel's total remuneration with respect the financial year ending 30 June 2022 is $35,000 (inclusive of superannuation) payable in cash plus 2,500,000 Options. |
2,500,000 Options under the Company's Employee Incentive Plan on the terms set out in Schedule 3. |
|
| The following information applies with respect to all Options to be issued: | ||||
| Why Options are being used | Options are a cash free way to remunerate directors and further align their interest with that of the Company. The Company does not consider that there are any significant opportunity costs foregone by the Company in issuing the Options. |
|||
| Value of Options | The estimated accounting value of all of the Options to be issued is approximately $0 currently due to the hurdle price being significantly higher than the current share price. This reflects the total remuneration package for each Director as set out in the table above under the heading 'Technical information required by Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.15'. The assumptions used in the black & Scholes calculation to value the Options were as follows: Life of instrument 4 years Expiry Period 5 years Risk-free interest rate 0.88% Current Share Price $0.26 Strike Price $0.80 - $2.00 Volatility 120% 5-year Government Bond Rate (rba.gov.au) ** As at 8 November 2021 (www.commsec.com) |
|||
| Accelerated Vesting | Vesting of the Options will be accelerated in certain circumstances at the discretion of the Board, including where the recipient is a good leaver or where a change of control event occurs with respect to the Company. Generally the Board will not consider that the recipient is a good leaver where the recipient has (i) acted fraudulently or dishonestly; (ii) engaged in serious or wilful misconduct; (iii) committed a breach of their appointment contract; (iv) committed an act, whether at work or otherwise, which could reasonably be regarded to have brought the Company into disrepute; or (v) is convicted of an offence punishable by imprisonment. |
|||
| Dates on which the entity will issue the Options |
The Company intends to issue the Options by no later than 1 month following Shareholder approval. It is difficult to determine when the Shares resulting from the Options are likely to be issued, however, if the performance hurdles are met, the resulting Shares will be issued following vesting of the relevant Options and prior the associated expiry dates set out above. |
|||
| Price at which Options are to be issued |
The Options will be issued for a $Nil issue/ grant price. |
Details of any securities issued under the scheme will be published in the annual report of the Company relating to the period in which they were issued, along with a statement that approval for the issue was obtain under ASX 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 scheme after the resolution is approved and who were not named in the notice of meeting will not participate until approval is obtained under that rule.

SPECIAL RESOLUTION
Resolution 14 Approval of additional capacity to issue securities under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A
ASX Listing Rule 7.1A
Under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, every listed entity has the ability to issue 15% of its issued capital without shareholder approval in a 12 month period. ASX Listing Rule 7.1A permits eligible small and mid-cap ASX-listed entities, subject to shareholder approval, to issue equity securities of up to an additional 10% of its issued capital by way of placements over a 12 month period, in addition to its ability to issue securities under Listing Rule 7.1 ( 10% Placement Capacity ).
The Company seeks Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A for the 10% Placement Capacity. The effect of this resolution will be to allow the Company, subject to the conditions set out below, to issue equity securities under the 10% Placement Capacity without using its 15% Placement Capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
Resolution 14 is a special resolution. Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person or by proxy) at the meeting must be in favour of this resolution for it to be passed.
ASX-listed entities which have a market capitalisation of $300 million or less, and which are not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index, are eligible to seek shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A. As at the date of this Notice, the Company is eligible to seek shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.
Whilst the Company currently has no intention or reason to issue this additional placement capacity, in the future having this additional placement capacity to immediately issue securities will be used for cash consideration only, the proceeds of which will be applied to fund the Company’s existing and future activities, appraisal of corporate opportunities, investment in new businesses (if any), the costs incurred in undertaking placement(s) of shares under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.A and for general working capital.
The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under ASX Listing Rules 7.1A.4 upon issue of any equity securities.
The Directors advise that this additional placement capacity will only be used by the Company if it is necessary due to timing constraints pertaining to the underlying transaction(s) for which it is used.
Any securities issued under the 10% Placement Capacity will be in the same class as existing quoted securities of the Company. The Company has only one class of quoted equity securities on issue as at the date of this Notice of Meeting being fully-paid ordinary shares with the ASX code TTT.
The Company may issue equity securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for cash consideration only, the proceeds of which will be applied to fund the Company’s existing and future activities, appraisal of corporate opportunities, investment in new businesses (if any), the costs incurred in undertaking placement(s) of shares under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.A and for general working capital.
The Directors have not decided if they will issue any securities under the 10% Placement Capacity and so allottees under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been determined. If Directors decide to issue securities under the 10% Placement Capacity, allottees may include existing Shareholders, existing substantial shareholders and/or new shareholders who are not related parties or associates of a related party of the Company.
Formula for calculating 10% Placement Facility
The exact number of additional Equity Securities that the Company may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined by a formula set out ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 as follows:
(A x D) - E
Where:
-
A is the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of the 12 month period before the date of issue or agreement (relevant period),
-
plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period under an exception in rule 7.2 other than exception 9, 16 or 17,
-
plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period on the conversion of convertible securities within rule 7.2 exception 9 where:
-
the convertible securities were issued or agreed to be issued before the commencement of the relevant period; or
-
the issue of, or agreement to issue, the convertible securities was approved, or taken under these rules to have been approved, under rule 7.1 or rule 7.4,
-
plus the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period under an agreement to issue securities within rule 7.2 exception 16 where:
-
the agreement was entered into before the commencement of the relevant period; or
-
the agreement or issue was approved, or taken under these rules to have been approved, under rule 7.1 or rule 7.4,
-
plus the number of any other fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period with approval under rule 7.1 or rule 7.4,
-
plus the number of partly paid ordinary securities that became fully paid in the relevant period,
-
less the number of fully paid ordinary securities cancelled in the relevant period.
(‘A’ has the same meaning in ASX 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 rule 7.1A.2 in the relevant period where the issue or agreement has not been subsequently approved by the holders of its ordinary securities under rule 7.4.
ASX Listing Rule 7.3A
In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A the Company provides the following information:
a) Period for which approval is valid
-
Equity securities under the 10% Placement Capacity may be issued until the earlier of:
-
15 December 2022;
-
the date of the Company's next annual general meeting; and
-
the date of approval by ordinary shareholders of a significant change to the Company’s activities under ASX Listing Rule 11.1.2 or the date of approval by ordinary shareholders of a disposal of a major asset under ASX Listing Rule 11.2.
b) Issue price
-
The issue price for each security issued under the 10% Placement Capacity will not be less than 75% of the volume weighted average price for securities in that class over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:
-
the date on which the price at which the securities are to be issued is agreed; or
-
if the securities are not issued within 10 trading days of the date above, the date on which the securities are issued.
c) Dilution
-
The issue of equity securities under the 10% Placement Capacity may result in voting dilution of existing ordinary shareholders (as shown in Table 1 , below). There is also the risk that:
-
the market price for equity securities in that class may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting; and
-
the equity securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those equity securities on the issue date.
Table 1, below, shows the dilution of 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 ASX Listing Rule 7.1A2.
The table also shows:
-
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 as at the date of the 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 Shareholders’ meeting; and
-
two examples of where the issue price of ordinary securities has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.
Table 1
| Variable'A' in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 | Variable'A' in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 | Dilution | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50% Decrease in Issue Price ($0.13) |
Issue Price ($0.26) | 100% increase in Issue Price ($0.52) |
||||||
| Variable A | 10% Voting Dilution | 18,734,582 | 18,734,582 | 18,734,582 | ||||
| 187,345,824 Shares |
Funds Raised | $2,435,495.71 | $4,870,991.42 | $9,741,982.85 | ||||

| 374,691,648 Shares |
Funds Raised | $4,870,991.42 | $9,741,982.85 | $19,483,965.70 |
Table 1 has been prepared based on the following assumptions:
-
Variable A is based on the number of Shares on issue on the date of the Notice.
-
The Company issues the maximum number of equity securities available under the 10% Placement Capacity.
-
The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue.
-
The table shows only the issue of equity securities under the 10% Placement Capacity and not under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.
-
The issue of equity securities under the additional placement capacity includes only shares.
The issue price of $0.26 was the price as at 8 November 2021 when the Notice of Meeting was finalised. This price may fluctuate between the time of preparing this Notice and the date of the Meeting.
d) Allocation policy
-
The Company’s allocation policy for issues under the 10% Placement Capacity is dependent on prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue. 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:
-
the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company, including rights issues or other issues in which existing shareholders may participate;
-
the effect of the issue of the equity securities on the control of the Company;
-
the financial position of the Company; and
-
advice from the Company’s advisors.
e) Issues in preceding 12 months
- During the previous 12 months prior to the date of the meeting the Company issued 11,615,385 Shares to investors under Listing Rule 7.1A.2. This represented 6.18% of the total issued share capital on issue as at 15 December 2020.
