1. BACKGROUND TO ACQUISTION OF MINDESK

1.1 Mindesk, Inc

As announced on 2 March 2020, the Company has entered into a share sale agreement with Mindesk Inc, a Delaware, USA incorporated company ( Mindesk ) and the shareholders of Mindesk ( Vendors ) ( Share Sale Agreement ), pursuant to which the Vendors have agreed to sell, and the Company has agreed to purchase, 100% of the fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of Mindesk ( Mindesk Shares ) ( Proposed Transaction ). A full list of the Vendors, and their percentage shareholding in Mindesk, is set out in Schedule C.

Mindesk has developed the first Software as a Service ( SaaS ) real-time 3D design platform that combines Computer Aided Design ( CAD ) with Virtual Reality ( VR ) and graphic engines.

Mindesk’s product is a native VR interface for CAD software, enabling the user to design directly in CAD via VR. While the Company’s existing VR product, “FrameS”, enables the user to export projects and designs from CAD to VR, Mindesk enables the user to design directly in VR via a live-link (from VR to CAD and vice versa). The Directors believe that together, Mindesk and FrameS represent the next generation of configurators powered by real-time connection to manufacturer design data.

Mindesk is effectively a plug in to CAD software and is a ‘bolt on’ to the Company’s current product suite, focussing on the design stage of the product development process.

Mindesk is structured in two distinct entities:

  • (a) Mindesk Inc: a Delaware, USA incorporated company, which manages Mindesk sales and is the 100% holding company for Mindesk Srl; and

  • (b) Mindesk Srl: an Italian proprietary company which is the research and development ( R&D ) centre of Mindesk.

The Directors believe that the acquisition of Mindesk will allow the Company to complement its existing product offering and drive further differentiation and growth across commercial CAD software for the architecture, engineering and construction industries. The addition of Mindesk to Vection’s existing product suite will accelerate Vection’s SaaS CAD strategy, in both the design and manufacturing workflows and also unlocking tremendous value for engineers, architects and designers in the initial phases of product development.

1.2 Reasons for the Proposed Transaction

The Directors have pursued and investigated the Proposed Transaction for the following reasons:

(a) Product Suite

With the addition of Mindesk, Vection can accelerate its commercial growth strategy to bring to market a 360° suite of software solutions addressing client companies’ digital needs, from design and engineering, to marketing and sales. With Mindesk, the Board believe Vection can establish itself as the technology partner for companies looking to transform their workflows and processes.

(b) Geographic Expansion and Enhanced Sales Opportunities

Vection, together with Mindesk, can leverage a strong value added and distribution network covering North America, Europe and Asia Pacific. This network, coupled with Mindesk’s existing online e- commerce presence, represents a strong sales opportunity for Vection’s diversified product suite.

(c) Management Team

One of Mindesk’s greatest assets is its management and software development team:

  • (i) Gabriele Sorrento (CEO): Fulbright Alumnus, M.Sc. in Architectural Engineering, 13+ years of experience in 3D CAD, previously worked with Renzo Piano Building Workshop and Heller Manus Architects.

  • (ii) Sergio Giorgio (CTO): 37+ years of experience in the development of automation, gaming, 3D graphics and Artificial Intelligence software. Previously worked for Alstom Ferroviaria (10 years) as Senior Architect and Developer. Developed and managed the national and regional system for the railways public information, circulation and safety.

  • (iii) Vittorio Bava (Head of Saas): serial founder with experience in start-ups in food tech and consumer internet, he started his career at Google as a tech analyst. He holds a MSc. in international management from ESADE, Barcelona, and a BSc. in business administration from Bocconi University, Milan.

  • (iv) Development team: composed of well qualified engineers with prior experiences at Airbus, General Electric, Epic Games and Bentley. All team members are committed to the long-term success of the combined group being also minority shareholders.

(d) Synergies

Vection and Mindesk can combine and integrate back-office and R&D frameworks, providing for significant cost savings. Additionally, combining the sales networks represents a strong growth opportunity to achieve short-term sales increase, at minimum cost.

1.3 Company intentions following the Proposed Transaction

Following the Proposed Transaction, Vection’s Board intends to accelerate its subscription-based growth strategy via the following commercial priorities:

(a) Sales Focus

Leveraging the combined group's market presence and its online ecommerce presence, to focus on near-term sales initiatives to accelerate subscription uptake across the group's product suite.

(b) Shared Resources

Mindesk's SaaS infrastructure represents an opportunity for the Company to achieve user adoption growth with minimum upfront capital expenditure.

(c) Technology Partnerships

The Company intends to integrate its product suite with Mindesk’s established group of clients and solution providers to increase its market share.

(d) Client Access

Vection enables Mindesk to reach a new customer base, providing for further, significant growth opportunities.

The Company remains committed to its existing products and will maintain its existing senior management structure following the Proposed Transaction. Mindesk presents a unique opportunity for the Company’s growth, and an immediate opportunity to acquire a truly complementary bolt on and to access the US market.

1.4 Material terms of Proposed Transaction

(a) Conditions Precedent

The material conditions precedent which must be satisfied prior to the Company completing the Proposed Transaction include:

(i) Approvals

The Company obtaining:

  • (C) all required governmental, regulatory, ASX and ASIC approvals, licences and permits necessary for the

Proposed Transaction to complete and for the Company to operate its business.

Other than the shareholder approval sought pursuant to this Notice, all other approvals (including Mindesk shareholder approval) have been obtained.

(ii) Escrow Agreements

The Vendors entering into restriction agreements in respect of the consideration securities to be issued to them, for a minimum period of 12 months from the date of issue or for the period required under the ASX Listing Rules, by the ASX or by the Company. Restriction agreements are currently being reviewed and will be executed prior to the issue of the Consideration Shares.

(iii)

Net Cash

Mindesk retaining Net Cash of €750,000.00 (seven-hundred and fifty thousand euros) at settlement of the Proposed Transaction. The net cash condition is being monitored by the Company and is currently being met.

(iv) Management Agreements

Each of Gabriele Sorrento, Sergio Giorgio and Vittorio Amedeo Bava (who are the current senior management of Mindesk) entering into contracting and/or employment agreements with Mindesk. Each of these agreements has been finalised, and will be entered into by the Company and the relevant management personnel prior to settlement of the Proposed Transaction.

(together, the Conditions Precedent ).

(b) Board Appointment

At settlement, the Company must appoint Gabriele Sorrento to its Board of Directors as a Non-Executive Director to further develop the Company’s and Mindesk's combined software as a service strategy, including but not limited to FrameS and Mindesk's current products, and international relationships with major companies in the technology industry.

Mr Sorrento, in his capacity as a shareholder in Mindesk, is also a Vendor, and following his appointment to the Board, will be a related party of the Company.

(c) Consideration

The consideration payable by the Company is comprised of eight (8) tranches of fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company.

For the purposes of the remainder of Section 1.4(c) of this Notice, the following terms have the following definitions:

  • (i) Consideration Shares means 165,505,199 Shares to be issued by the Company to the Vendors;

  • (ii) Mindesk Revenues means the audited revenue generated by Mindesk developed products, including non-refundable grants provided by third parties, but excluding any and all tax credits;

  • (iii) Combined Revenue means the revenue generated by the Company (including Mindesk) but excluding any acquisitions conducted by the Company and/or body related corporate following settlement of the Proposed Transaction;

  • (iv) Deferred Consideration means the following additional Shares to be issued by the Company to the Vendors:

  • (A) Deferred Consideration A

8,000,000 Shares upon Mindesk achieving specific milestones relating to the development and testing of a collaboration module compatible with or otherwise integrated into the Mindesk plugin for McNeel Rhinoceros 6 (set out fully in Schedule A) on or prior to 31 December 2021.

  • (B) Deferred Consideration B – 2020

  • (I) 9,000,000 Shares upon the achievement of minimum audited Mindesk Revenues equal to €920,001 (nine-hundred twenty thousand and one euro) in calendar year 2020; or

  • (II) 20,000,000 Shares upon the achievement of minimum audited Mindesk Revenues equal to €1,300,001 (one million three hundred thousand and one euro) in calendar year 2020.

Mindesk has not yet recorded any material revenue against this milestone in the current calendar year. Mindesk is currently in negotiations for contracts which are expected to generate more material revenue (towards achievement of this milestone) during this year, following settlement of the Proposed Transaction.

(A) Deferred Consideration C – 2021

  • (I) 18,000,000 Shares upon the achievement of minimum audited Mindesk Revenues equal to €2,950,001 (two million nine hundred fifty thousand and one euro) in calendar year 2021; or

  • (II) 40,000,000 Shares upon the achievement of minimum audited Mindesk Revenues equal to €4,400,001 (four million four hundred thousand and one euro) in calendar year 2021.

(v) Purchaser Group Deferred Consideration

The Company and the Vendors foresee that, following settlement and by commencement of calendar year 2021, the Company (along with Mindesk) will jointly develop and commercialise multiple software products and services, and thus performance milestones solely related to the performance by Mindesk would not depict a correct picture of the value of the New Business. Hence, the Company and Mindesk consider it would be in the best interest of their shareholders to benchmark the issue of deferred consideration Shares subject to the combined group results, such results to exclude any acquisition occurring following settlement of the Proposed Transaction.

The above statement is made on the basis that the Company intends to integrate the Mindesk business within its existing operations, and as such the Company intends to develop products that combine the existing technologies of the two companies which it believes will generate value and increased commercialisation opportunities.

Following the Proposed Transaction, the Company intends to:

  • (A) have a software product suite consisting of FrameS, FrameS Training, FrameS Dental, E-Health Application, 3D Configurators, Logistics AR software and Mindesk;

  • (B) develop additional software to bring to market during calendar year 2020;

  • (C) integrate Mindesk as an additional solution addressing a segment not currently covered by its existing product suite;

  • (D) (during 2020) consolidate the back-office, marketing & sales, R&D and software development functions of both Mindesk and the Company’s existing businesses, generating significant efficiencies and cost savings, as well as significant sales upside potential across multiple markets; and

  • (E) (during 2021) release several new products utilising its consolidated team to develop and market all of the Company’s products.

On and from calendar year 2021 therefore, it will be impossible to relate precise group financial results to the efforts of a particular software development team or product.

In order to reflect this, the milestones attached to all deferred consideration Shares from year 2021 (being Deferred Consideration D – G) shall be subject to shareholder approval and have been related to the group’s combined revenue rather than the standalone revenue of Mindesk.

The Company will also ensure that the audited revenue milestones for each of Deferred Consideration D – G exclude

any and all additional acquisitions the Company may make following settlement of the Proposed Transaction.

(A) Deferred Consideration D – 2021

  • (I) 2,000,000 Shares upon the achievement of minimum audited Combined Revenue equal to €9,300,001 (nine million three-hundred thousand and one euro) in calendar year 2021; or

  • (II) 5,000,000 Shares upon the achievement of minimum audited Combined Revenue equal to €12,000,001 (twelve million and one euro) in calendar year 2021.

(B) Deferred Consideration E – 2022

  • (I) 2,000,000 Shares upon the achievement of minimum audited Combined Revenue equal to €15,000,001 (fifteen million and one euro) in calendar year 2022; or

  • (II) 5,000,000 Shares upon the achievement of minimum audited Combined Revenue equal to €20,000,001 (twenty million and one euro) in calendar year 2022 ( Financials 22 ).

(C) Deferred Consideration F – 2023

15,000,000 Shares upon the achievement of minimum audited Combined Revenue in the calendar year 2023 equal to at least 10% (ten percent) increase over the Financials 2022 ( Financials 2023 ).

(D) Deferred Consideration G – 2024

15,000,000 Shares upon the achievement of minimum audited Combined Revenue in calendar year 2024 financial period equal to at least 10% (ten percent) increase over the Financials 2023.

Shareholders should note that the Company will not vary any of the above milestones upon which the Deferred Consideration will be issued.

1.9 ASX Waivers for issue of Deferred Consideration A - C

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 requires listed companies to obtain shareholder approval prior to the issue of shares, or securities convertible into shares, representing more than 15% of the issued capital of a listed company in any 12-month period. If the Company obtains shareholder approval for the issue of securities (in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules) the issue of those securities will not be deducted from the Company’s 15% placement capacity.

ASX Listing Rule 7.3 sets out the requirements for shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. In particular, ASX Listing Rule 7.3.4 provides that the notice of meeting must (inter alia) state the date on or by which the entity will issue the securities and that the securities must be issued no later than 3 months after the date of the meeting or such later date as may be permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the ASX Listing Rules.

The underlying policy of this ASX Listing Rule 7.3.4 is to provide certainty to security holders and ensure that securities are issued before the approval is “stale” or vitiated by a change in the entity’s circumstances.

Listing Rule 10.11 requires shareholder approval to be obtained where an entity issues, or agrees to issue, securities to a related party, or a person whose relationship with the entity or a related party is, in ASX’s opinion, such that approval should be obtained unless an exception in ASX Listing Rule 10.12 applies.

Listing Rule 10.11 protects a listed entity's security holders by preventing a related party from obtaining shares on advantageous terms and increasing the related

party's holding proportionate to other holdings. The underlying policy is to ensure that an issue of securities to a related party that has been approved by security holders is made within a reasonable timeframe following the approval, so that that it is less likely that the circumstances in which the issue is made will have changed materially from those prevailing at the time the approval was given.

Similarly to ASX Listing Rule 7.3.4, ASX Listing rule 10.13.5 provides that the notice of meeting seeking approval for the issue of shares to a related party must (inter alia) state the date on or by which the entity will issue the securities and that the securities must be issued no later than 1 month after the date of the meeting or such later date as may be permitted by any ASX waiver or modification of the Listing Rules.

The Company has sought, and on 21 February 2020 received, waivers ( Waivers ) from the ASX in relation to ASX Listing Rules 7.3.4 and 10.13.5 to enable the Company to issue, subject to satisfaction of the Conditions Precedent and the relevant milestone, Deferred Consideration tranches A – C to the Vendors (and Mr Gabriele Sorrento following his appointment as a Director) in accordance with the periods set out in Section 1.4(c) above.

Accordingly, subject to Resolutions 2 – 4 passing, due to the Company receiving the Waivers, the Company may issue the Consideration Shares and the Deferred Consideration Tranches A – C at various times prior to the end of calendar year 2021, which will be more than 1 and 3 months following the date of the meeting.

The Waivers were conditionally granted to the Company. The full terms of the Conditions attaching to the waivers are set out in Schedule B.

1.10 Listing Rule 10.11 approval not required

A summary of Listing Rule 10.11 is set out in Section 1.9 above.

The Consideration Shares and Deferred Consideration tranches A – C will be issued to the Vendors, who (other than Mr Gabriele Sorrento) are not related parties of the Company.

Mr Gabriele Sorrento is a related party of the Company in accordance with Listing Rule 10.11.1 and by virtue of section 228(6) of the Corporations Act and his anticipated appointment as a Director pursuant to the Proposed Transaction.

As Mr Sorrento is only a related party by reason of the Proposed Transaction, the Company will not require Listing Rule 10.11 approval for the issue of the Consideration Shares and Deferred Consideration tranches A – C as it will rely on Listing Rule 10.12 (Exception 12).

1.11 Resolutions 1 – 4

The Waivers relate solely to Deferred Consideration tranches A – C. The Company will seek shareholder approval in due course for the issue of Deferred Consideration tranches D – G.

Resolutions 1 – 4 of this Notice are seeking:

(a) approval for the Company to issue the Consideration Shares at settlement of the Proposed Transaction (Resolution 1); and

  • (b) pre-approval for the Company to issue Deferred Consideration tranches A – C in due course (later than 3 months from the date of the Meeting), as and when the relevant Milestone is achieved by Mindesk (Resolutions 2 – 4).

2. RESOLUTION 1 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE CONSIDERATION SHARES

2.1 General

As set out in Section 1.1 above and as announced on 2 March 2020, the Company has entered into an agreement for the acquisition of Mindesk Inc.

Upfront consideration for the acquisition ( Consideration Shares ) is the issue of 165,505,199 Shares in consideration for the the acquisition of Mindesk.

Broadly speaking, and subject to a number of exceptions, Listing Rule 7.1 limits the amount of equity securities that a listed company can issue without the approval of its shareholders over any 12 month period to 15% of the fully paid ordinary securities it had on issue at the start of that period.

The proposed issue of the Consideration Shares does not fall within any of these exceptions and exceeds the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1. It therefore requires the approval of the Company’s shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 1 seeks the required shareholder approval for the issue of the Consideration Shares under and for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.

2.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Company will not be able to satisfy the Condition Precedent to the Proposed Transaction and will be unable to proceed with the Proposed Transaction.

The Company will also be unable to issue the Consideration Shares.

If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Company will continue to develop its existing products to ensure value creation for shareholders and will continue to pursue partnership and M&A opportunities to support its long-term vision of creating a 360° real-time software product suite.

If Resolution 1 is passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Consideration Shares. In addition, the issue of the Consideration Shares will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

2.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.1

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

  • (a) the Consideration Shares will be issued to the Vendors, none of whom (other than Mr Gabriele Sorrento) are related parties of the Company. As Mr Sorrento is only a related party by reason of the Proposed Transaction, the Company will not require Listing Rule 10.11 approval as it will rely on Listing Rule 10.12 (Exception 12);

  • (b) the maximum number of Consideration Shares to be issued is 165,505,199;

  • (c) the deemed issue price per Consideration Share is A$0.025;

  • (d) the Consideration 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;

  • (e) 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 Listing Rules) and it is intended that issue of the Consideration Shares will occur on the same date, being the date the Proposed Transaction settles;

  • (f) no funds will be raised from the issue as the Consideration Shares will be issued in consideration for the acquisition of Mindesk; and

  • (g) a summary of the material terms of the Share Sale Agreement is set out in Section 1.4 above.

3. RESOLUTIONS 2 TO 4 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE DEFERRED CONSIDERATION SHARES

3.1 General

In addition to the Consideration Shares, the Company has agreed to issue the Vendors additional Shares upon Mindesk (as the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary) achieving various audited revenue milestones.

For the remainder of this Notice, references to Mindesk Revenue Deferred Consideration is a reference to Deferred Consideration tranches A, B and C (together).

As set out above, and pursuant to the Waivers, the Company is seeking preapproval for the Company to issue the Mindesk Revenue Deferred Consideration in due course (later than 3 months from the date of the Meeting), as and when the relevant Milestone is achieved by Mindesk. The Waivers require that the Mindesk Revenue Deferred Consideration must be issued by:

  • (a) Deferred Consideration tranche A: no later than 28 February 2022;

  • (b) Deferred Consideration tranche B: no later than 28 February 2021; and

  • (c) Deferred Consideration tranche C: no later than 28 February 2022.

The proposed issue of the Mindesk Revenue Deferred Consideration does not fit within any of the specified exceptions to Listing Rule 7.1. While the issue would not currently exceed the 15% limit in Listing Rule 7.1 and can therefore be made without breaching that rule, the Company wishes to retain as much flexibility as possible to issue additional equity securities in the future without having to obtain Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1. Additionally, the Company is unaware when the issue of any tranche of Mindesk Revenue Deferred Consideration may occur.

Accordingly, the Company is seeking pre-approval from Shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 to issue the Mindesk Revenue Deferred Consideration as and when the relevant milestone is met, so that the Company does not use up any of its 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 at that time.

3.2 Technical information required by Listing Rule 14.1A

If Resolution 2 is not passed, the issue of Deferred Consideration tranche A can still proceed as and when the first Milestone is met, but such issue will diminish the Company’s capacity at that time to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 in the future.

If Resolution 3 is not passed, the issue of Deferred Consideration tranche B can still proceed as and when the second Milestone is met, but such issue will diminish the Company’s capacity at that time to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 in the future.

If Resolution 4 is not passed, the issue of Deferred Consideration tranche C can still proceed as and when the third Milestone is met, but such issue will diminish the Company’s capacity at that time to issue equity securities without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 in the future.

If Resolutions 2 - 4 are passed, the Company will be able to proceed with the issue of the Mindesk Revenue Deferred Consideration at the relevant time, subject to the satisfaction of the relevant Milestone.

In addition, the issue of the Mindesk Revenue Deferred Consideration will be excluded from the calculation of the number of equity securities that the Company can issue at that time, without Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1. For the avoidance of doubt, the issue of the Mindesk Revenue Deferred Consideration can only proceed if the Company has sufficient Listing Rule 7.1 capacity at the time of issue.

Resolutions 2 - 4 seek Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1 for the issue of the Deferred Consideration tranches A, B and C respectively.

3.3 Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.1

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3, the following information is provided in relation to Resolutions 2 – 4:

  • (a) the Mindesk Revenue Deferred Consideration will be issued to the Vendors, none of whom (other than Mr Gabriele Sorrento) are related parties of the Company. As Mr Sorrento is only a related party by reason of the Proposed Transaction, the Company will not require Listing Rule 10.11 approval as it will rely on Listing Rule 10.12 (Exception 12);

  • (b) the maximum number of Mindesk Revenue Deferred Consideration to be issued is 68,000,000, broken up as follows:

  • (i) Resolution 2 - Deferred Consideration tranche A: 8,000,000;

  • (ii) Resolution 3 - Deferred Consideration tranche B: 20,000,000; and (iii) Resolution 4 - Deferred Consideration tranche C: 40,000,000;

  • (c) the Mindesk Revenue Deferred Consideration 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;

  • (d) the deemed issue price of the Mindesk Revenue Deferred Consideration shares is A$0.025;

  • (e) the Waivers require that the Mindesk Revenue Deferred Consideration will be issued, subject to the satisfaction of the relevant milestones attaching to each tranche as follows:

  • (i) Deferred Consideration tranche A: no later than 28 February 2022;

  • (ii) Deferred Consideration tranche B: no later than 28 February 2021; and

  • (iii) Deferred Consideration tranche C: no later than 28 February 2022.

  • (f) no funds will be raised from the issue as the Mindesk Revenue Deferred Consideration will be issued as additional consideration for the acquisition of Mindesk; and

  • (g) a summary of the material terms of the Share Sale Agreement is set out in Section 1.4 above.
