This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.
1. RESOLUTIONS 1 & 2 – RATIFICATION OF ISSUE OF 25,800,000 SHARES TO SOPHISTICATED INVESTORS UNDER ASX LISTING RULES 7.1 AND 7.1A
1.1 Background
On 19 March 2018 the Company announced the placement of 25,800,000 Shares at $0.015 each to raise approximately $387,000 (before costs) (Placement). The Placement was made to sophisticated and professional investors using the Company’s placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A respectively.
1.2 Listing Rule Requirements
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 7.1A provides that certain eligible companies may seek shareholder approval at its AGM to issue up to a further 10% of its fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the start of the 12 month period commencing on the date of the AGM. The Company is an eligible company and sought and received shareholder approval to the 10% share issue capacity at its AGM on 30 November 2017. The shareholder approval is valid until the earlier of 12 months from the date of the AGM (that is, until 30 November 2018) or, if the Company undertakes a significant transaction requiring shareholder approval under Listing Rile 11.1.2 or 11.2, the date the shareholders approve that transaction.
Listing Rule 7.4 permits the ratification of previous issues of securities made without prior Shareholder approval, provided the issue did not breach the 15% threshold set by Listing Rule 7.1 and as an eligible entity the additional 10% threshold under Listing Rule 7.1A. The effect of the ratification is to restore the Company's maximum discretionary power to issue further Shares up to 15% of the issued capital of the Company under Listing Rule 7.1 and an additional 10% under Listing Rule 7.1A without requiring Shareholder approval. These Resolutions seek ratification under Listing Rule 7.4 of the total issue of 25,800,000 Shares of:
-
15,472,687 Shares under Listing Rule 7.1
-
10,327,313 Shares under Listing Rule 7.1A
This ratification will order to restore the ability of the Company to issue further Shares within its respective limits during the next 12 months. The disclosure requirements for Shareholders to ratify a prior issuance of shares is set out in Listing Rule 7.5.
1.3 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.5
The following information in relation to the Shares is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.5:
-
(a) 25,800,000 Shares were issued;
-
(b) the Shares were issued at an issue price of $0.015 each;
-
(c) the Shares issued were fully paid ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company and rank equally in all respects with the existing fully paid ordinary Shares on issue;
-
(d) the Shares were issued to various sophisticated and professional investors, none of which are related parties of the Company;
-
(e) funds raised from the issue were used to provide further working capital including salaries, rent and maintenance of its overseas offices as well as pursue revenue generating conventional service type agreements for its substantial call centre and IT development resources; and
-
(f) voting exclusion statements are included in the Notice for these Resolutions.
The Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 1 and 2.
2. RESOLUTION 3 – ISSUE OF SHARES PURSUANT TO CONVERTIBLE NOTE FACILITY
2.1 Background
As announced on 22 November 2017, the Company has entered into a heads of agreement in relation to a convertible note facility with Servnote Holding Pty Ltd (ACN 622 762 252) (Noteholder) with an initial investment value of $500,000 (Facility) (Convertible Note HOA). The Noteholder had the option to increase its investment by an additional $500,000 which is did, as announced on 27 March 2018.
The Company has received $1,000,000 under the Facility in consideration for the issue of a convertible note worth $1,000,000. Subject to Shareholder approval, the convertible note will convert into Shares at the lower of $0.02 and 80% of the volume-weighted average market price for Shares in the five (5) days on which sales are recorded before conversion of the convertible note.
If Shareholder approval is not obtained for conversion of the convertible note, upon conversion of the convertible note the Company must issue that number of Shares up to the maximum permitted under the Company’s ASX Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity at that time.
The Company will pay interest at a rate of 10% per annum on the current value of funds advanced by the Noteholder, payable monthly in advance. The Noteholder may elect, at its full discretion to convert the interest portion in Share on the same conditions as the convertible note. The Noteholder has not elected to do this.
5
In the event that Shareholder approval for conversion of the convertible note is not obtained, or there is an outstanding amount of the convertible note requiring conversion following the issue of Shares pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1, the Company must pay the Noteholder a penalty interest rate of 20% per annum on the value of the convertible note outstanding until the earlier of Shareholder approval being obtained, the Company issuing the outstanding Shares pursuant to its ASX Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity or the maturity date (extended by agreement to 30 August 2018). The Company must pay a fee of 5% of the initial investment of $500,000 (being $25,000) to brokers nominated by the Noteholder. A summary of the rights, privileges and restrictions attaching to the convertible note is set out in Schedule A.
2.2 Listing Rule Requirements
As noted in section 2.1, the Company has agreed, subject to Shareholder approval, to issue up to that number of Shares, when multiplied by the conversion price, will equal both the initial investment of $500,000 and the additional investment of $500,000 made by the Noteholder under the Facility. This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval to issue these Shares to the Noteholder.
The effect of this Resolution will be to allow the Company to issue these Shares during the period of 3 months after the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1. A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in section 1.2 above. The disclosure requirements for Shareholders to approve an issue or agreement to issue securities under Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in Listing Rule 7.3.
2.3 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.3
-
(a) the maximum number of Shares to be issued is up to that number of Shares which, when multiplied by the issue price, equals $1 Million;
-
(b) the Shares will be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) and it is intended that issue of the Shares will occur on the same date;
-
(c) the issue price will be the lower of $0.02 and 80% of the volume weighted average price for Shares calculated over the 5 days on which sales in the Shares are recorded before conversion of the convertible note (which is subject to Shareholder approval);
-
(d) the Shares will be issued to nominees of the Noteholder, none of which are related parties of the Company;
-
(e) the Shares issued will be fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company issued on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s existing Shares; and
-
(f) the Company intends to use the funds raised from the Facility towards general working capital including salaries, rent and maintenance of its overseas offices as well as pursue revenue generating conventional service type agreements for its substantial call centre and IT development resources.
3. RESOLUTION 4 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE SHARES TO CONSULTANTS
3.1 Background
Pursuant to the engagement of Mr Simon Ingleson (the Consultant) as General Manager, the Company agreed that part of the fee payable under this engagement would be settled with the issuance of 3,000,000 fully paid ordinary Shares, subject to necessary approvals. This structure was adopted in part to preserve the cash balance of the Company as well as provide an incentive to the Consultant, further aligning the interests of the Consultant with the shareholders.
3.2 Listing Rule Requirements
This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval to issue 3,000,000 Shares to the Consultant.
The effect of this Resolution will be to allow the Company to issue these Shares during the period of 3 months after the Meeting (or such later date to the extent permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules) without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 7.1. A summary of Listing Rule 7.1 is set out in section 1.2 above.

4. RESOLUTION 5 – APPROVAL OF EMPLOYEE SHARE PLAN
4.1 General
Resolution 5 seeks Shareholders' approval for the adoption of a new employee incentive scheme titled "ServTech Employee Securities Incentive Plan" (Plan) in accordance with Listing Rule 7.2 exception 9(b). The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of this ordinary Resolution. The Chair intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of this Resolution.
4.2 Listing Rule Requirements
Listing Rule 7.2, exception 9(b) provides an exception to Listing Rule 7.1 such that issues of Equity Securities under an employee incentive scheme are exempt for a period of 3 years from the date on which shareholders approve the issue of Equity Securities under the scheme as an exception to Listing Rule 7.1.
If this Resolution is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities under the Plan to eligible participants over a period of 3 years without impacting on the Company's ability to issue up to 15% of its total ordinary securities without Shareholder approval in any 12-month period. Shareholders should note that the Plan has not been previously approved and no Equity Securities have previously been issued under the Plan.
The objective of the Plan is to attract, motivate and retain key Directors, employees and contractors and it is considered by the Company that the adoption of the Plan and the future issue of Equity Securities under the Plan will provide selected participants with the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company.
Any future issues of Equity Securities under the Plan to a related party or a person whose relation with the Company or the related party is, in ASX's opinion, such that approval should be obtained will require additional Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 10.14 at the relevant time.
A summary of the key terms and conditions of the Plan is set out in Schedule B. In addition, a copy of the Plan is available for review by Shareholders at the registered office of the Company until the date of the Meeting. A copy of the Plan can also be sent to Shareholders upon request to the Company Secretary. Shareholders are invited to contact the Company if they have any queries or concerns.
5. RESOLUTIONS 6 – APPROVAL OF FUTURE PLACEMENT SHARES
5.1 Background
Resolution 6 seeks Shareholder approval for the proposed issue of up to $1,000,000 worth of new Shares (Future Placement Shares) at an issue price per Share of not less than 80% of the VWAP of the Shares calculated over the last 5 days on which sales in the Shares were recorded before the day on which the Future Placement Shares are issued to various unrelated exempt investors that fall within one or more of the classes of exemptions specified in section 708 of the Corporations Act.
The Company has not committed to undertaking the issue of the Future Placement Shares, nor the price at which these Shares will be issued. However, pursuant to this Resolution the Company is seeking the approval of Shareholders to provide it with flexibility to undertake the placement within 3 months after the Meeting.
5.2 Listing Rule Requirements
This Resolution seeks approval for the allotment and issue of up to $1,000,000 worth of new Shares exempt investors who are not related parties of the Company for the purpose of satisfying the requirements of Listing Rule 7.1. The effect of this Resolution will be to allow the Company to issue the Shares during the period of 3 months after the Meeting (or a longer period, if allowed by ASX), without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity. For the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided to Shareholders in relation to this Resolution:
3.2 Technical information required by ASX Listing Rule 7.3
-
(a) the maximum number of Shares to be issued is up to that number of Shares which, when multiplied by the issue price, equals $1,000,000.
-
(b) the Future Placement Shares will be issued progressively as the recipients are identified. In any event, however, no Future Placement Shares will be issued later than 3 months after the Meeting (other than to the extent permitted by any waiver or modification of the Listing Rules).
-
(c) the Future Placement Shares will be issued for an issue price per Future Placement Share to be determined by the Directors, which may be a fixed or stated percentage that is at least 80% of the volume weighted average price of the Shares calculated over the last 5 days on which sales in the Shares were recorded before the day on which the Future Placement Shares are issued or, if there is a prospectus relating to the issue, over the last 5 days on which sales in the securities were recorded before the date the prospectus is signed.
-
(d) the recipients of the Future Placement Shares have not been identified but will be exempt investors under the Corporations Act. The Directors will determine to whom the Shares will be issued but these persons will not be related parties of the Company.
-
(e) The Future Placement Shares will not be issued to any recipient who, upon such issue, and in combination with that recipient’s associates, would have a relevant interest in excess of 19.99% of the Shares, unless further Shareholder approval is obtained or the issue of Future Placement Shares to that recipient otherwise complies with Chapter 6 of the Corporations Act.
-
(f) the Shares issued will rank equally in all respects with existing Shares on issue at the time.
7
- (g) the funds raised are intended to be applied towards expanding the Company’s back office services offering including offering more services to key client The Agency; business development for the Company’s IT development division; and investment capital requirements of the Company, which may include the costs of any acquisition that the Company may enter, relevant at, or about, the time of the fund raising at the discretion of the Board. In addition, funds will be used to meet corporate overhead costs of the parent entity including ASX and director fees.
5.3 Dilution
The volume weighted average price for Shares on the 5 days on which sales in Shares were recorded before 28 June 2018 was $0.0120. The lowest issue price (i.e. maximum discount) of not less than 80% of this volume weighted average price would be $0.0096 per Share. Accordingly, set out below is a worked example of the number of Shares that may be issued under this Resolution based on an assumed issue price of $0.012, $0.0108, being midpoint between the VWAP above and the maximum discount of $0.0096.
| Assumed issue price |
Maximum number of Shares which the Company could issue (rounded up to the nearest whole number) pursuant to Resolution 6 |
Current Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice |
Increase in the number of Shares on issue assuming the Company issued the maximum amount pursuant to Resolution 6 |
Dilution effect on existing Shareholders |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $0.012 | 83,333,333 | 129,073,131 | 212,406,464 | 39.23% |
| $0.0108 | 92,592,593 | 129,073,131 | 221,665,724 | 41.77% |
| $0.0096 | 104,166,667 | 129,073,131 | 233,239,798 | 44.66% |
Assuming no Options are exercised, no Performance Shares converted, or other Shares issued and the maximum number of Shares as set out in the worked example above are issued, the number of Shares on issue would increase from 129,073,131 (being the number of Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice) to 233,239,798 and the shareholding of existing Shareholders would be diluted by 44.66%.
5.4 Dilution in conjunction with Resolution 3 (Issue of shares pursuant to convertible note facility)
Should Resolution 3 be approved, and the Company subsequently utilises the future placement capacity sought in this Resolution, then the indicative dilutive effect on the Company will be as follows:
| Assumed issue price |
Maximum number of Shares which the Company could issue (rounded up to the nearest whole number) pursuant to Resolution 6* |
Current Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice + Shares approved under Resolution 3* |
Increase in the number of Shares on issue assuming the Company issued the maximum amount pursuant to Resolution 6 |
Dilution effect on Shareholders |
Dilution effect on Shareholders |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Adjusted** | Cumulative*** | ||||
| $0.012 | 83,333,333 | 210,373,944 | 293,707,277 | 28.37% | 56.05% |
| $0.0108 | 92,592,593 | 210,373,944 | 302,966,537 | 30.56% | 57.40% |
| $0.0096 | 104,166,667 | 210,373,944 | 314,540,611 | 33.12% | 58.96% |
*Assuming a conversion price of $0.0123 per share for the shares issued under Resolution 3 equating to 81,300,813 shares
**Dilution based on current shares on issue plus shares issued under Resolution 3
***Dilution based on current shares on issue as at the date of this Notice
Using the same assumptions as the first worked example and adding the shares issued from the approval of Resolution 3, the number of Shares on issue would increase from 210,373,944 (being the number of Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice plus 81,300,813 shares issued from approval of Resolution 3) to 314,540,611 and the shareholding of existing Shareholders would be diluted by 33.12%.
The cumulative dilutive effect (based on number of Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice) would mean an increase from 129,073,131 to 314,540,611 and the shareholding of existing Shareholders would be diluted by 58.96%.
The Company notes that the above workings are an example only and the actual issue price may differ. This will result in the maximum number of Shares to be issued and the dilution percentage to also differ.

SCHEDULE B – SUMMARY OF EMPLOYEE SECURITIES INCEN TIVES PLAN
The Company has established an employee securities incentive plan ( Plan ). The full terms of the Plan may be inspected at the registered office of the Company during normal business hours. A summary of the terms of the Plan is set out below.
1. Eligible Participant
Eligible Participant means a person that:
-
(a) is an "eligible participant" (as that term is defined in ASIC Class Order 14/1000) in relation to the Company or an Associated Body Corporate (as that term is defined in ASIC Class Order 14/1000); and
-
(b) has been determined by the Board to be eligible to participate in the Plan from time to time.
2. Purpose
The purpose of the Plan is to:
-
(a) assist in the reward, retention and motivation of Eligible Participants;
-
(b) link the reward of Eligible Participants to Shareholder value creation; and
-
(c) 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.
3. 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. The Board may delegate its powers and discretion.
4. Eligibility, invitation and application
-
(a) 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.
-
(b) 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.
-
(c) 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.
5. 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.
6. 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. A Participant may not sell, assign, transfer, grant a security interest over 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.
7. 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.
8. Exercise of Convertible Securities and cashless exercise
To exercise a 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.
An invitation may specify that at the time of exercise of the Convertible Securities, 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.
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.
11
SCHEDULE B – SUMMARY OF EMPLOYEE SECURITIES INCENTIVE S PLAN
9. 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 transfer 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.
10. 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, or wilfully breached his or her duties to the Group, the Board has discretion to deem all unvested Convertible Securities held by that Participant as forfeited.
Unless the Board otherwise determines, or as otherwise set out in the Plan rules:
-
(a) any Convertible Securities 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
-
(b) any Convertible Securities which have not yet vested will be automatically forfeited on the expiry date specified in the invitation.
11. 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 with the change of control event.
12. 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.
13. 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:
-
(a) transfer, encumber or otherwise dispose of, or have a security interest granted over that Plan Share; or
-
(b) 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.
14. 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.
15. 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.
16. 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 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.
17. 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.
