The purpose of this Explanatory Statement is to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions in the Notice of Meeting.

A Proxy Form is located at the end of the Explanatory Memorandum.

1. Resolution 1 – Ratification of prior issue of Placement Shares

1.1 Background

On 1 April 2021, the Company announced a placement for a total value of $2 million to sophisticated and professional investors ( Placement ). The Placement comprised of an issue of a total of 41,666,667 Shares at an issue price of $0.048 per Share ( Placement Shares ).

The Placement Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s existing capacity available under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder ratification pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for the previous issue of the Placement Shares.

The Placement was managed by Kaai Pty Ltd (trading as Kaai Capital) who were engaged to act as the Lead Manager pursuant to a Lead Manager mandate ( Lead Manager Mandate ).

The key material terms of the Lead Manager Mandate were as follows:

  • (a) Services: The Lead Manager will lead manage the Placement on a best endeavours basis, assist to prepare presentation and marketing material (if necessary) and investor management and general capital markets advice.

  • (b) Fees: In consideration for these services, the Company agreed a Lead Manager Fee of 6% of the total amount raised under the Placement and at the Lead Manager’s election, the fee can be elected through the issue of Shares on the same terms as the Placement Shares. The Lead Manager Shares the subject of Resolution 2 are being issued in consideration of the Lead Manager Fee.

  • (c) Term: The term of the Lead Manager Mandate is upon the earlier of completion of the Placement and issue of all Lead Manager securities to the Lead Manager (or its nominees).

The Lead Manager Mandate otherwise outlines terms and conditions which are standard for an agreement of this nature.

1.1.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue 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.

Listing Rule 7.4 allows the shareholders of a listed company to approve an issue of Equity Securities after it has been made or agreed to be made. If they do, the issue is taken to have been approved under Listing Rule 7.1 and so does not reduce the company’s capacity to issue further Equity Securities without shareholder approval under that rule.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1.To this end, Resolution 1 seeks Shareholder approval for the ratification of the issue of the Placement Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4.

If Resolution 1 is passed, the Placement Shares issued will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of equity securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Placement Shares issued 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.

1.1.3 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.4

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided Resolution 1:

  • (a) the Placement Shares were issued to sophisticated and professional investors who are clients of Kaai Capital and who have previously shown an interest in investing in companies in the same nature as the Company (none of whom are related parties, members of the Company’s key management personnel, substantial holders nor advisers to the Company) (nor is the issue being made to an associate of these persons);

  • (b) a total of 41,666,667 Placement Shares were issued under Listing Rule 7.4.

  • (c) the Placement Shares issued were all fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company's existing Shares;

  • (d) the Placement Shares were issued on 14 April 2021;

  • (e)

  • the issue price of the Placement Shares was $0.048 cents per Share;

  • (f) the purpose of this issue and the intended use of the funds raised is as set out in Section 1.1.1;

  • (g) the issue of the Placement Shares was not pursuant to an agreement; and

  • (h) a voting exclusion statement is included in Resolution 1 of the Notice.

11

2.1.1 Purpose and Use of Funds

2.1.2 ASX Listing Rules 7.1

An explanation of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in 1.1.2 above.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional Equity Securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under Listing Rule 7.1.To this end, Resolution 2 seeks Shareholder approval for the ratification of the issue of the Lead Manager Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.4.

If Resolution 2 is passed, the Lead Manager Shares issued will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of equity securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

If Resolution 2 is not passed, the Lead Manager Shares issued 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.

2.1.3 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.4

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.5, the following information is provided Resolution 2:

  • (a) the Lead Manager Shares were issued to Kaai Pty Ltd (trading as Kaai Capital) (and/or its nominees). Although Kaai Capital acted as the Lead Manager for the Placement, Kaai Capital is otherwise not engaged as an advisor of the Company, and is not a related party or substantial holder.

The issue of the Related Party Performance Rights is viewed as a cost effective and efficient way to incentivise and reward the directors as opposed to alternative forms of incentives, such as the payment of additional cash compensation, and the vesting conditions applicable to the Related Party Performance Rights are considered more appropriate in light of current market conditions.

3.2 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and Listing Rule 10.11

For a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related 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,

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

13

The issue of the Related Party Performance Rights constitutes giving a financial benefit and Jurie Wessels, Nico Van der Hoven, Michael Davy and John Ciganek are related parties of the Company by virtue of being Directors.

Listing Rule 10.11 provides that unless one of the exceptions in Listing Rule 10.12 applies, a listed company must not issue or agree to issue equity securities to:

  • (a) a related party;

  • (b) a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (30%+) holder in the company;

  • (c) a person who is, or was at any time in the 6 months before the issue or agreement, a substantial (10%+) holder in the company and who has nominated a director to the board of the company pursuant to a relevant agreement which gives them a right or expectation to do so;

  • (d) an associate of a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.3; or

  • (e) a person whose relationship with the company or a person referred to in Listing Rules 10.11.1 to 10.11.4 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the issue or agreement should be approved by its shareholders,

unless it obtains the approval of its shareholders.

As it is proposed that the Related Party Performance Rights be granted to all of the Directors, the Directors have been unable to form a quorum to consider whether one of the exceptions set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act or ASX Listing Rule 10.12 applies to these issues. Accordingly, Shareholder approval is sought for the grant of the Related Party Performance Rights to Jurie Wessels, Nico Van der Hoven, Michael Davy and John Ciganek (and/or their respective nominees).

If Resolutions 3 to 6 are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Related Party Performance Rights the subject of these Resolutions. If any of Resolutions 3 to 6 are not passed, the Company will not be able to issue the Director Related Party Performance Rights the subject of the Resolution and may consider alternative other forms of remuneration in lieu of such issue.

3.3 Section 195 of the Corporations Act

Section 195 of the Corporations Act provides that a director of a public company must not vote or be present during meetings of directors when matters in which that director holds a ‘material personal interest’ are being considered.

Jurie Wessels, Nico Van der Hoven, Michael Davy and John Ciganek have a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolutions 3 to 6 (as applicable). The Directors have accordingly exercised their right under section 195(4) of the Corporations Act to put the issue of the Related Party Performance Rights to Shareholders to resolve upon.

  • (k) the Board acknowledges the grant of the Related Party Performance Rights to the Directors is contrary to Recommendation 8.3 of The Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (4[th] Edition) as published by The ASX Corporate Governance Council. However, the Board considers the grant of the Related Party Performance Rights is reasonable in the circumstances for the reason set out in paragraph (m);

  • (l) the primary purpose of the grant of the Related Party Performance Rights to the Directors is to provide a performance linked incentive component in their remuneration package to motivate and reward their performance in their respective roles as Directors;

  • (m) Mr Wessels declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 3 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that he (and/or his nominee) is to be granted the Related Party Performance Rights should Resolution 3 be passed. However, in respect of Resolutions 4 to 6, Mr Wessels recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the following reasons:

  • (i) the grant of the Related Party Performance Rights will align the interests of the Directors with those of Shareholders;

  • (ii) the grant of the Related Party Performance Rights is a reasonable and appropriate method to provide cost effective remuneration as the non-cash form of this benefit will allow the Company to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on its operations than it would if alternative cash forms of remuneration were given; and

  • (iii) it is not considered that there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company or benefits foregone by the Company in granting the Related Party Performance Rights upon the terms proposed;

  • (n) Mr Van der Hoven declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 4 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that he (and/or his nominee) is to be granted Related Party Performance

16

Rights in the Company should Resolution 4 be passed. However, in respect of Resolutions 3 and 5-6, Mr Van der Hoven recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the reasons set out in paragraph (m);

  • (o) Mr Davy declines to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to Resolution 5 due to his material personal interest in the outcome of the Resolution on the basis that he (and/or his nominee) is to be granted Related Party Performance Rights in the Company should Resolution 5 be passed. However, in respect of Resolutions 3-4 and 6, Mr Davy recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of those Resolutions for the reasons set out in paragraph (m);

  • (p) in forming their recommendations, each Director considered the experience of each other Director, the current market price of Shares, the current market practices when determining the number of Related Party Performance Rights to be granted as well as the vesting conditions of those Related Party Performance Rights; and

  • (q) the Related Party Performance Rights are not being issued under an agreement;

  • (r) a voting exclusion statement is included in Resolutions 3 to 6 of the Notice; and

  • (s) 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 Resolutions 3 to 6.

Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is not required in order to issue the Related Party Performance Rights to the Directors (and/or their nominees) as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.11. Accordingly, the issue of the Related Party Performance Rights will not be included in the 15% calculation of the Company’s annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

4. Resolution 7 - Approval to issue of Performance Rights to Employees

4.1 General

Resolution 7 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of a total of 5,325,000 Performance Rights (which consists of 4,325,000 Class A Performance Rights and 1,000,000 Class B Performance Rights) ( Employee Performance Rights ) to Kyla Garic, Eugene Nel, Daniel Ellis, Stephanie Moult and James Wilson (and/or their respective nominees) on the terms and conditions set out below.

The issue of the Employee Performance Rights is viewed as a cost effective and efficient way to incentivise and reward the Employees as opposed to alternative forms of incentives, such as the payment of additional cash compensation, and the vesting conditions applicable to the Employee Performance Rights are considered more appropriate in light of current market conditions.

4.2 ASX Listing Rule 7.1

An explanation of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in 1.1.2 above.

The Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities into the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval for such issues under

17

Listing Rule 7.1. To this end, Resolution 7 seeks Shareholder approval for the issue of the Employee Performance Rights for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 7 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Employee Performance Rights. In addition, the issue of the Employee Performance Rights will be excluded in calculating the Company’s 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1, effectively increasing the number of equity securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

If Resolution 7 is not passed, the Company will not be able to proceed with the issue of the Employee Performance Rights unless the issue of the Employee Performance Rights is able to be made following the Meeting from the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1, in which case, the Company will have a reduced ability to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval over the 12 month period following the issue date.

4.3 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.1

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to Resolution 1:

  • (a) the Employee Performance Rights Shares will be issued to Eugene Nel (Chief Executive Officer), Kyla Garic (Company Secretary), Daniel Ellis (Financial Accountant), Stephanie Moult (Assistant) and James Wilson (Consultant) (and/or their respective nominees) (none of whom are members of the Company’s key management personnel, substantial holders, nor advisers to the Company (nor is the issue being made to an associate of these persons)). None of these subscribers are related parties of the Company;

  • (b) a total of 5,325,000 Performance Rights (which consists of 4,325,000 Class A Performance Rights and 1,000,000 Class B Performance Rights) will be issued.

  • (c) the terms and conditions of the Employee Performance Rights are set out in Schedule 2;

  • (d) the Employee Performance Rights will be issued to the Employees no later than 3 months after the date of this Meeting;

  • (e) the Employee Performance Rights will be issued for nil cash consideration, accordingly no funds will be raised;

  • (f) the primary purpose of the issue of the Employee Performance Rights to the Employees is to provide a performance linked incentive component to their remuneration package to motivate and reward their performance in their respective roles as Employees;

  • (g) the Employee Performance rights are not being issued under an agreement; and

  • (h) a voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice.

Approval pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 is required in order to issue the Employee Party Performance Rights to the Employees (and/or their nominees) as approval is being obtained under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, the issue of the Employee Party Performance Rights will be included in the 15% calculation of the Company’s annual placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

18

The Directors of the Company believe Resolution 7 is in the best interest of the Company and its Shareholders and unanimously recommend that the Shareholders vote in favour of this Resolution.

5. Resolution 8 – Re-election of Mr John Ci anek g

5.1 General

SCHEDULE 2 – Performance Rights

1. Grant price

Each Performance Right will be granted by the Company for nil cash consideration.

2. Rights

  • (a) The Performance Rights do not carry any voting rights in the Company.

  • (b) The Performance Rights do not confer on the holder the right to receive notices of general meetings and financial reports and accounts of the Company that are circulated to shareholders. Holders of Performance Rights do not have the right to attend general meetings of shareholders.

  • (c) The Performance Rights do not entitle the holder to any dividends.

  • (d) The Performance Rights do not confer any right to participate in the surplus profits or assets of the Company upon winding up of the Company.

  • (e) The Performance Rights do not confer any right to a return of capital, whether in a winding up, upon a reduction of capital or otherwise.

  • (f) The Performance Rights do not confer the right to participate in new issues of securities such as entitlement issues or bonus issues. If the Company makes a bonus issue of Shares or other securities to existing shareholders (other than an issue in lieu or in satisfaction of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment) the number of Shares which must be issued on the exercise of a Performance Right will be increased by the number of Shares which the holder would have received if the Performance Right had been exercised before the record date for the bonus issue.

  • (g) If at any time the issued capital of the Company is reorganised, the rights of the holder may change to comply with Listing Rule 6.16. Further, the Performance Rights are to be treated in the manner set out in Listing Rule 7.21 (assuming that the Listing Rules apply), being that the number of Performance Rights or the conversion ratio or both will be reorganised so that the holder of the Performance Rights will not receive a benefit that holders of ordinary shares do not receive and so that the holders of ordinary shares will not receive a benefit that the holder of the Performance Rights does not receive.

  • (h) The Performance Rights give the holder no rights other than those expressly provided by these terms and those provided at law where such rights at law cannot be excluded by these terms.

3. Rights

  • (a) A class of Performance Rights ( Class ) immediately vests and becomes exercisable by the holder into Shares ( Conversion Shares ) on a one for one basis upon and subject to the Company providing written notice ( Vesting Notice ) to the holder that the Company has satisfied the relevant condition ( Condition ) by the relevant expiry date ( Expiry Date ) set out below (on a post-Consolidation basis).

22

Class Condition Expiry Date
Class A The Company achieving a VWAP of at
least $0.10 over a period of 20 trading
days.

Class B Either:

at least $0.15 over a period of 20
trading days; or
(b) a strategic investor (being a person

a price per share of not less than
$0.08 per share; or
(c) the Company entering into a legally
binding off-take arrangement with a
third party.
3 years from the date of

  • (b) In order to exercise a Class into Conversion Shares following receipt of a Vesting Notice, the holder must provide written notice ( Exercise Notice ) to the Company of its election to exercise the Class into the Conversion Shares. The holder must pay $0.001 upon exercise for each Performance Right ( Exercise Price ). A Class may only be exercised into Conversion Shares once.

  • (c) Despite any other provision, the exercise of any Performance Rights is subject to the Company obtaining any required shareholder or regulatory approval for the purpose of issuing the Conversion Shares. If exercise of all or part of the Performance Rights would result in any person being in contravention of section 606(1) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) ( Corporations Act ) then the exercise of each Performance Right that would cause the contravention will be deferred until such time or times that the exercise would not at a later date result in a contravention of section 606(1) of the Corporations Act. The holder must give prior written notice to the Company if it considers that the exercise of all or part of its Performance Rights may result in the contravention of section 606(1) of the Corporations Act, failing which the Company will be entitled to assume that the exercise of the Performance Rights under these terms will not result in any person being in contravention of section 606(1) of the Corporations Act.

  • (d) Subject to sub-clause (c) above, the Company must issue Conversion Shares in the name of the holder (or its nominee) within 7 days of receiving a valid Exercise Notice and the Exercise Price.

  • (e) Each Conversion Share will rank equally with a fully paid ordinary share in the capital of the Company.

  • (f) The Performance Rights will not be quoted on any securities exchange and the Company will not make an application for quotation in respect of them. However, if the Company is listed on the ASX at the relevant time, the Company must apply for quotation of any Conversion Shares on the ASX in accordance with the Listing Rules, subject always to the requirements of the Listing Rules, including those relating to escrow and the cleansing requirements under the Corporations Act.

23

4. Expiry

Performance Rights which have not been validly exercised into Conversion Shares on or before the earlier of the relevant Expiry Date will automatically be deemed to be terminated and cancelled by the Company for nil cash consideration.

5. Transferability

The Performance Rights are not transferable.

6.

Compliance with the law

  • (a) Despite anything else contained in these terms, if the Corporations Act, Listing Rules or Constitution prohibits an act being done, that act must not be done.

  • (b) Nothing contained in these terms prevents an act being done that the Corporations Act, Listing Rules or Constitution require to be done.

  • (c) If the Corporations Act, Listing Rules or Constitution conflict with these terms, or these terms do not comply with the Corporations Act, Listing Rules or the Constitution, the holder authorises the Company to do anything necessary to rectify such conflict or noncompliance, including but not limited to unilaterally amending these terms.

  • (d) The terms of the Performance Rights may be amended as necessary by the directors of the Company in order to comply with the Listing Rules, or any directions of ASX regarding the terms.

7. Control Event

  • (a) A change of control event ( Control Event ) occurs where:

  • (i) an offer is made for Shares pursuant to a takeover bid under Chapter 6 of the Corporations Act and is, or is declared, unconditional and the person making the takeover bid has a relevant interest in 50% or more of the Company’s Shares;

  • (ii) the Court sanctions under Part 5.1 of the Corporations Act a compromise or arrangement relating to the Company or a compromise or arrangement proposed for the purposes of or in connection with a scheme for the reconstruction of the Company or its amalgamation with any other company or companies; or

  • (iii) any person acquires a relevant interest in 50.1% or more of the Shares in the Company by any other means.

  • (b) All the Performance Rights on issue (all Classes) shall automatically vest (without the need for any Vesting Notice) and become exercisable by the holder into Conversion Shares upon the occurrence of a Control Event. Following which, the holder can exercise the Class into a Conversion Share in accordance with clause 7(b).

  • (c) The automatic conversion shall only occur if the relevant Control Event is triggered by a person who does not control the entity at the time the Performance Rights were issued.
