an entity controlled by directors of the public company (section 228(4)).
Mr Bull and Mr Hunt are Directors of the Company.
A “financial benefit” is defined in section 229 of the Corporations Act and includes issuing shares or granting an option to a related party.
Section 210 of the Corporations Act provides an exception to the requirement to obtain shareholder approval for giving a financial benefit to a related party, where the financial benefit is on terms which would be reasonable in the circumstances if the public company and the related party were dealing at arm’s length.
The Company considers that the proposed issue of securities the subject of Resolutions 12 and 13 will be on arm’s length terms as it is part of, and on the same terms as, the capital raising described in Resolution 11 which offer will also be made to investors who are not related parties of the Company. As such, the Company considers that the proposed issue falls within the exception set out in section 210 of the Corporations Act.
The nature of the financial benefit to be given to the existing Directors is the interest in the ordinary shares which are to be issued in the event that the Director successfully subscribe for shares in the capital raising described in Resolution 11.
A voting exclusion statement applies to Resolutions 12 and 13 and is set out in the Notice. Mr Hunt and Mr Bull do not make any recommendation regarding Resolutions 12 and 13 as each of them has an interest in the outcome of the resolutions.
In addition to the information set out above, further additional information required by the ASX Listing Rule 10.13 in respect of each of Resolutions 12 and 13 is set out below:
