with the requirements of section 250D of the Corporations Act. Written proof of the representative’s appointment (including any authority under which it is signed) must be lodged with, or presented to the Company before the Meeting.

2.3 Proxies

(a) Voting by proxy

A Proxy Form is enclosed with the Notice. This is to be used by Shareholders if they wish to appoint a representative (a 'proxy') to vote in their place. All Shareholders are invited and encouraged to attend the Meeting or, if they are unable to attend in person, sign and return the Proxy Form to the Company in accordance with the instructions thereon. Lodgement of a Proxy Form will not preclude a Shareholder from attending and voting at the Meeting in person.

Please note that:

  • (i) a member of the Company entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy;

  • (ii) a proxy need not be a member of the Company; and

  • (iii) a member of the Company entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint two proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise, but where the proportion or number is not specified, each proxy may exercise half of the votes.

The enclosed Proxy Form provides further details on appointing proxies and lodging Proxy Forms.

(b) Proxy vote if appointment specifies way to vote

Section 250BB(1) of the Corporations Act provides that an appointment of a proxy may specify the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution and, if it does:

  • (i) the proxy need not vote on a show of hands, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed);

  • (ii) if the proxy has 2 or more appointments that specify different ways to vote on the resolution – the proxy must not vote on a show of hands;

  • (iii) if the proxy is the chair of the meeting at which the resolution is voted on – the proxy must vote on a poll, and must vote that way (i.e. as directed); and

  • (iv) if the proxy is not the chair – the proxy need not vote on the poll, but if the proxy does so, the proxy must vote that way (i.e. as directed).

  • (c) Transfer of non-chair proxy to chair in certain circumstances

Section 250BC of the Corporations Act provides that, if:

  • 7 -

Legal/76749895_10

  • (i) an appointment of a proxy specifies the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution at a meeting of the Company's members;

  • (ii) the appointed proxy is not the chair of the meeting;

  • (iii) at the meeting, a poll is duly demanded on the resolution; and

  • (iv) either the proxy is not recorded as attending the meeting or the proxy does not vote on the resolution,

2.4 Chair's voting intentions

The Chair intends to exercise all available proxies in favour of all Resolutions, unless the Shareholder has expressly indicated a different voting intention.

If the Chair is appointed as your proxy and you have not specified the way the Chair is to vote on Resolution 1 by signing and returning the Proxy Form, you are considered to have provided the Chair with an express authorisation for the Chair to vote the proxy in accordance with the Chair's intention, even though the Resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the Key Management Personnel of the Company.

3. Annual Report

In accordance with section 317 of the Corporations Act, Shareholders will be offered the opportunity to discuss the Annual Report, including the Financial Report, the Directors' Report and the Auditor's Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2021.

Legal/76749895_10

may be submitted no later than 5 business days before the Meeting to the Company Secretary at the Company's registered office.

4. Resolution 1 – Remuneration Report

In accordance with subsection 250R(2) of the Corporations Act, the Company must put the Remuneration Report to the vote of Shareholders. The Directors' Report contains the Remuneration Report which sets out the remuneration policy for the Company and the remuneration arrangements in place for the executive Directors, specified executives and non-executive Directors.

In accordance with subsection 250R(3) of the Corporations Act, Resolution 1 is advisory only and does not bind the Directors. If Resolution 1 is not passed, the Directors will not be required to alter any of the arrangements in the Remuneration Report.

If the Company's Remuneration Report receives a 'no' vote of 25% or more ( Strike ) at two consecutive annual general meetings, Shareholders will have the opportunity to remove the whole Board, except the managing director (if any).

Where a resolution on the Remuneration Report receives a Strike at two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put to Shareholders at the second annual general meeting a resolution on whether another meeting should be held (within 90 days) at which all Directors (other than the managing director, if any) who were in office at the date of approval of the applicable Directors' Report must stand for re-election.

The Company's Remuneration Report did not receive a Strike at the 2020 annual general meeting. If the Remuneration Report receives a Strike at this Meeting, Shareholders should be aware that if a second Strike is received at the 2022 annual general meeting, this may result in the re-election of the Board.

The Chair will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders as a whole to ask about, or make comments on the Remuneration Report. Resolution 1 is an ordinary resolution.

  1. Resolution 2 - Re-Election of Director - Mr Peter Hutchinson

5.1 General

Article 6.14 of the Constitution requires that one third of the Directors (excluding the Managing Director) must retire at each Annual General Meeting (or if that is not a whole number, the whole number nearest to one third, rounded down). Article 6.16 of the Constitution requires that the Directors to retire are those who have held their office as Director for the longest period since their last election or appointment to that office. In the event two or more Directors have held office for equal periods of time, the retiring Directors are to be determined by lot, unless otherwise agreed by those Directors.

Article 6.17 of the Constitution provides that a Director who retires under Article 6.13 to 6.15 (inclusive) or Article 6.23 is eligible for re-election.

Mr Hutchinson retires by rotation in accordance with Articles 6.14 and 6.16 of the Constitution and seeks re-election in accordance with Article 6.17.

  • 9 -

Legal/76749895_10

If elected, the Board does not consider Mr Hutchinson to be an independent director due to his substantial security holding.

Resolution 2 is an ordinary resolution.

The Board (excluding Mr Hutchinson) recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.

5.2 Mr Peter Hutchinson

Mr Hutchinson holds a Bachelor of Commerce (UWA) and is a Fellow of both the Australian Institute of Company Directors and Certified Practicing Accountants.

Mr Hutchinson was a Non-Executive Director of Zeta Resources (formerly Kumarina Resources Ltd). Mr Hutchinson was the founding director of ASX listed Forge Group Ltd, floated in 2007 with a market capitalisation of $12m and reaching over $450m at the time of Mr Hutchinson’s resignation as CEO and final sell down in July 2012. Mr Hutchinson has chaired ASX listed company Resource Equipment Ltd and was the founding shareholder and Chair of Mareterram Ltd, both the subject of successful takeover bids at significant premiums to market prices. He also currently chairs Western Plant Hire Holdings Ltd.

Mr Hutchinson has substantial experience in mergers and acquisitions, prospectus preparation, ASX listing, compliance and corporate governance, company secretarial requirements and exit strategies, and has been a Member of Audit, Remuneration and Nomination Committees, often as Chair.

6. Resolution 3 – Approval of 10% Placement Facility

6.1 General

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.

Listing Rule 7.1A enables an eligible entity to issue Equity Securities up to 10% of its issued share capital through placements over a 12 month period after the annual general meeting ( 10% Placement Facility ). The 10% Placement Facility is in addition to the Company's 15% annual placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1, so a combined limit of 25%, without any further Shareholder approval.

Resolution 3 seeks Shareholder approval by way of a special resolution to provide the Company the ability to issue Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility during the 10% Placement Period (refer to Section 6.2(f) below). The number of Equity Securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Facility will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (refer to Section 6.2(c) below).

Resolution 3 is a special resolution and therefore requires approval of 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote (in person, by proxy, by attorney or, in the case of a corporate Shareholder, by a corporate representative).

If Resolution 3 is passed, the Company will be able to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A up to 10% of its issued capital over a 12 month period after the

  • 10 -

Legal/76749895_10

annual general meeting, in addition to the Company's placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

If Resolution 3 is not passed, the Company will not be able to access the additional 10% capacity to issue Equity Securities without Shareholder approval provided for in Listing Rule 7.1A and will remain subject to the 15% limit on issuing securities without Shareholder approval set out in Listing Rule 7.1.

Resolution 3 is a special resolution.

The Board recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.

6.2 Listing Rule 7.1A

(a) Is the Company an eligible entity?

An eligible entity for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1A is an entity that is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a market capitalisation of $300 million or less.

The Company is an eligible entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 index and has a market capitalisation of approximately $29.8 million, based on the closing price of Shares $0.077 on 23 September 2021.

(b) What Equity Securities can be issued?

Any Equity Securities issued under the 10% Placement Facility must be in the same class as an existing quoted class of Equity Securities of the Company.

As at the date of the Notice, the Company has on issue one quoted class of Equity Securities, being Shares.

(c) How many Equity Securities can be issued?

Listing Rule 7.1A.2 provides that under the approved 10% Placement Facility, the Company may issue or agree to issue a number of Equity Securities calculated in accordance with the following formula:

  • (a) plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the relevant period under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 other than exception 9, 16 or 7;

  • (b) plus the number of fully paid shares 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
  • 11 -

Legal/76749895_10

  - the issue of, or agreement to issue, the convertible securities was approved, or taken under the Listing Rules to have been approved, under Listing Rule 7.1 or Listing Rule 7.4;
  • (c) plus the number of Shares issued in the Relevant Period under an agreement to issue securities within Listing 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 the Listing Rules to have been approved, under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4;

  • (d) plus the number of partly paid Shares that became fully paid in the relevant period; and

  • (e) less the number of fully paid Shares cancelled in the relevant period.

  • D

is 10%.

  • E is the number of Equity Securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the relevant period where the issue or agreement has not been subsequently approved by the Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.4.

  • (d) What is the interaction with Listing Rule 7.1?

The Company's ability to issue Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A will be in addition to its 15% annual placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • (e) At what price can the Equity Securities be issued?

The issue price of Equity Securities issued under Listing Rule 7.1A must be not less than 75% of the VWAP of Equity Securities in the same class calculated over the 15 Trading Days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • (i) the date on which the price at which the Equity Securities are to be issued is agreed; or

  • (ii) if the Equity Securities are not issued within 10 Trading Days of the date in paragraph 6.2(e)(i) above, the date on which the Equity Securities are issued,

( Minimum Issue Price ).

  • (f) When can Equity Securities be issued?

Legal/76749895_10

  • (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the Meeting at which the approval was obtained;

  • (ii) the time and date of the entity’s next Annual General Meeting; and

  • (iii) the date of Shareholder approval of a transaction under Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of activities) or 11.2 (disposal of main undertaking),

( 10% Placement Period ).

  • (g) What is the effect of Resolution 3

The effect of Resolution 3 will be to allow the Directors to issue the Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A during the 10% Placement Period without further Shareholder approval or using the Company's 15% annual placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

  • 6.3 Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.3A

Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the following information is provided in relation to the 10% Placement Facility:

  • (a) Minimum issue price

If the Company issues Equity Securities for cash consideration under the 10% Placement Facility, then the issue price will be not less than the Minimum Issue Price.

(b) Risk of economic and voting dilution

If this Resolution is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility, the existing Shareholders' economic and voting power in the Company will be diluted as shown in the below table (in the case of Options, only if the Options are converted into Shares).

The below table shows:

  • (i) the dilution of existing Shareholders based on the current market price of Shares and the current number of Shares for "A" calculated in accordance with the formula in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (see Section 6.2(c)) as at the date of the Notice ( Variable A );

  • (ii) two examples where Variable A has increased, by 50% and 100%; and

Notes:

  1. The table has been prepared on the following assumptions:

  2. (a) the issue price is $0.077 being the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 23 September 2021, being the latest practicable date before the date of this Notice;

  3. (b) variable A is 386,955,864, comprising 386,955,864 Shares as at the date of this Meeting, assuming the Company has not issued any Shares in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 or with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.4;

  4. (c) the Company issues the maximum number of Equity Securities available under the 10% Placement Facility;

  5. (d) no convertible securities (including any issued under the 10% Placement Facility) are exercised or converted into Shares before the date of the issue of the Equity Securities; and

  6. (e) the issue of Equity Securities under the 10% Placement Facility consists only of Shares. If the issue of Equity Securities includes Options, it is assumed that those Options are exercised into Shares for the purpose of calculating the voting dilution effect on existing Shareholders.

  7. 14 -

Legal/76749895_10

  1. The number of Shares on issue (i.e. Variable A) may increase as a result of issues of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue, scrip issued under a takeover offer or upon exercise of convertible securities) or future specific placements under Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders' meeting.

  2. The 10% voting dilution reflects the aggregate percentage dilution against the issued share capital at the time of issue. This is why the voting dilution is shown in each example as 10%.

  3. The table does not show an example of dilution that may be caused to a particular Shareholder by reason of placements under the 10% Placement Facility, based on that Shareholder's holding at the date of the Meeting.

  4. The table shows only the effect of issues of Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A, not under the 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

Shareholders should note that there is a risk that:

  • (i) the market price for the Company's Equity Securities may be significantly lower on the date of the issue of the Equity Securities than on the date of the Meeting; and

  • (ii) the Equity Securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for the Company's Equity Securities on the issue date or the Equity Securities are issued as part of consideration for the acquisition of a new asset,

which may have an effect on the amount of funds raised by the issue of the Equity Securities.

(c) Timing of potential issues

Approval of the Additional 10% Placement Facility will be valid during the 10% Placement Period.

(d) Purposes of issues under 10% Placement Facility

The Company intends to use funds raised under the 10% Placement Facility for further utilisation of its waterwell drilling assets, the acquisition of new assets or investments (including expenses associated with such an acquisition), and/or for general working capital.

The Company will comply with the disclosure obligations under Listing Rules 7.1A.4 upon issue of any Equity Securities.

(e) Allocation policy

The Company's allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to the 10% Placement Facility. The identity of the allottees of Equity Securities is not yet known and will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factors including but not limited to the following:

  • 15 -

Legal/76749895_10

  • (i) the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company, including but not limited to, rights issue or other issue in which existing security holders can participate;

  • (ii) the effect of the issue of the Equity Securities on the control of the Company;

  • (iii) the financial situation and solvency of the Company; and

  • (iv) advice from its professional advisors, including corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).

The allottees under the 10% Placement Facility have not been determined as at the date of the Notice but may include existing substantial Shareholders and/or new Shareholders who are not a related party or an associate of a related party of the Company.

(f) Issues in the past 12 months

The Company has previously obtained Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at its annual general meeting held on 19 November 2020.

In the 12 months preceding the date of the Meeting and as at the date of this Notice, the Company has not issued any Equity Securities under Listing Rule 7.1A.

(g) Voting exclusion statement

A voting exclusion statement has not been included in the Notice because as at the date of this Notice, the Company has not approached any particular investor to participate in an issue of Equity Securities. No existing Shareholder's votes will therefore be excluded under the voting exclusion in the Notice.

  1. Resolution 4 - Removal of Cumulative EPS Condition for Tranche 1 of the Director Performance Rights

7.1 General

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval to amend the vesting conditions attaching to Tranche 1 of the Performance Rights on issue to Messrs James Clement and Sheldon Burt (and/or their nominees) ( Director Performance Rights ) by removing the cumulative EPS condition.

The Chair will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders as a whole to ask about, or make comments on the proposed removal of Tranche 1 of the Director Performance Rights' cumulative EPS condition.

Resolution 4 is an ordinary resolution.

The Chair (excluding Messrs Clement and Burt) recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4.

  • 7.2 Background to Director Performance Rights

At 30 June 2021, the Company has the following Director Performance Rights on issue:

Each Director Performance Right will convert on a 1:1 basis into Shares upon achievement of their relevant vesting conditions:

  • (a) Employment condition – means the holder of the Director Performance Rights remains employed by the Company at the Condition Test Date; and

  • (b) Cumulative EPS condition – means the earnings per share ( EPS ) based on the achievement of compound annual growth in the Company’s EPS of 15% per annum from the financial year 30 June 2020, subject to a minimum EPS of $0.01 for the financial year ending 30 June 2020. The EPS calculation is based on the Company’s cumulative net profit after tax up until the relevant condition test date divided by the weighted average number of shares on issue over the relevant period, taking into account any new shares issued (or cancelled by the Company in the relevant period).

The Director Performance Rights therefore have a:

  • (a) service condition; and

  • (b) cumulative EPS condition,

both of which are non-market based performance conditions under AASB 2 and must be met for the Director Performance Rights to vest.

  • 7.3

  • Nature of the Company's Business

The cumulative EPS condition is based on the financial results for the twelve (12) months to 30 June 2020 (FY2020). As released to the ASX on 28 August 2020, the financial results for FY2020 included a one-off gain on bargain purchase totalling $7.18 million. This resulted from the difference between the price paid for the drilling assets and inventory from Perenti Limited (previously Ausdrill Limited) and their assessed Market Value. The gain on bargain purchase had a direct impact on the net profit after tax of the Company, as there were minimal expenses incurred associated with this amount.

The capital-intensive nature of the Company’s business means that it incurs a significant annual depreciation expense (non-cash) and material interest expense associated with the debt funding in relation to the acquisition of ancillary

  • 17 -

Legal/76749895_10

equipment to support its drilling assets. These items have, and will continue to have a material effect on the Company's net profit after tax and subsequently, EPS.

Further, the Company’s results for the 12 months ended 30 June 2021 include a material non-cash income tax expense which is primarily a result of utilising the ATO's instant asset write-off. The Company is expected to be again be eligible and utilise the ATO’s instant asset write-off for the 30 June 2022 financial year.

The current nature of the Company's business is therefore expected to be further impacted by the above for the 30 June 2022 year. Such costs are incurred in order to continue to grow the Company’s operations and achieve its strategic objectives, however are not conducive of growth in EPS. The likelihood of performance conditions associated with Tranche 1 of the Director Performance Rights being achieved is therefore uncertain.

7.4 Purpose of Resolution

The Company's Nomination and Remuneration Committee supports the removal of the cumulative EPS condition from the Tranche 1 Director Performance Rights due to the operational outperformance of the Key Management Personnel to date and its wish to reduce some of the uncertainty around the vesting of the Tranche 1 Director Performance Rights in recognition of their efforts.

Since the reinstatement to the ASX in September 2019, the Company has quickly moved through the start-up phase and has now positioned itself a premier service provider to the mining industry. The first two financial years of operations have included the following key milestone achievements from Key Management Personnel:

  • (a) the purchase of drilling assets and inventory from Perenti Limited (previously Ausdrill);

  • (b) the establishment of Vysarn’s wholly owned subsidiary Pentium Hydro Pty Ltd;

  • (c) the hiring of a 100+ strong team across operations and management;

  • (d) accounting, inventory and business systems put in place;

  • (e) the rebuild of two Foremost Dual Rotary rigs purchased from New Zealand in 2020 and upgrade a Schramm T130XD from a casing advance/conventional drill rig to Dual Tube Flooded Reverse;

  • (f) subsequently creating one of the largest pure hydrogeological drilling companies in Australia and to the Company’s knowledge, the only domestic hydrogeological drilling company that can provide three drilling services across Dual Rotary, Dual Tube Flooded Reverse and Conventional drilling;

  • (g) the award of major contracts to provide water well construction services to enable the opportunity for 100% drill rig deployment;

  • (h) formally achieving ISO accreditation in occupational health and safety management systems (ISO 45001:2018), quality management systems (ISO 9001:2015) and environmental management systems (ISO 14001:2015); and

  • 18 -

Legal/76749895_10

  • (i) achieving revenue from operations of $25.82 million and earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) of $5 million in the first full financial year of operations.

Given what the Company, under the guidance of Key Management Personnel, has achieved since September 2019, the Company is seeking to remove the cumulative EPS condition for Tranche 1 of the 3 Tranches of Director Performance Rights. The only other condition associated with the Tranche 1 Director Performance Rights will be the employment condition prescribing that they continue to remain with the Company period of service through to 30 June 2022.

7.5 AASB 2 – Share-based Payment

Removal of the cumulative EPS condition of Tranche 1 of the Director Performance Rights will not result in any additional expense or remeasurement event. The Company has not changed the number or price of the instruments on issue. The conditions affecting their likelihood they will vest has changed given the removal of the cumulative EPS condition. Further information on the fair value of the Director Performance Rights is disclosed within the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2020 and 30 June 2021.

7.6 ASX Listing Rule 6.23

ASX Listing Rule 6.23.4 provides that a company must obtain shareholder approval to make a change to the terms of options on issue which is not prohibited under ASX Listing Rule 6.23.3. ASX regards the Director Performance Rights as equivalent to options. The Company has obtained a waiver from ASX Listing Rule 6.23.3 to permit the removal of the EPS vesting condition for the Tranche 1 Director Performance Rights, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval pursuant to Resolution 4 and the Notice including explanatory information for the rationale for the proposed amendment to the Tranche 1 Director Performance Rights (which is provided in sections 7.1 to 7.4 of the Notice).

7.7 Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act requires that 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.

A "related party" includes a director of the company and "giving a financial benefit" is interpreted broadly. The removal of the cumulative EPS condition of Tranche 1 of the Director Performance Rights may constitute the giving of a financial benefit to a related party as:

  • (a) the removal of the cumulative EPS condition of Tranche 1 of the Director Performance Rights makes the vesting conditions of the Tranche 1 Director Performance Rights less onerous, which may constitute the giving of a financial benefit; and

  • 19 -

Legal/76749895_10

  • (b) the holders of the Director Performance Rights, Messrs Clement and Burt (and/or their nominees) are related parties of the Company by reason of being Directors.

The Company has determined to seek Shareholder approval of the purposes of Chapter 2E for the removal of the cumulative EPS condition of Tranche 1 of the Director Performance Rights.

7.8 Specific Information required by section 219 of the Corporations Act

The following information is provided to Shareholders for the purposes of obtaining Shareholder approval for the purposes of section 219 of the Corporations Act for the financial benefits associated with the removal of the cumulative EPS condition of Tranche 1 of the Director Performance Rights:

  • (a) the financial benefits relating to the removal of the cumulative EPS condition of Tranche 1 of the Director Performance Rights are being provided to Messrs Clement and Burt (and/or their nominees), Directors, pursuant to Resolution 4;

  • (b) the financial benefit is the removal of the cumulative EPS condition of Tranche 1 of the Director Performance Rights. Refer to Section 7.4 for further information;

  • (c) The Board (excluding Messrs Clement and Burt) recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4. Messrs Clement and Burt have a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 4 and therefore believe it inappropriate to make a recommendation;

  • (d) provided the vesting conditions are satisfied, the Tranche 1 Director Performance Rights have the value of a Share, as the Tranche 1 Director Performance Rights have a nil exercise price and do not have market conditions attached to them. As at 23 September 2021, the price of a Share is $0.077 per Share. As a result, the total value attributed to the Tranche 1 Director Performance Rights to be issued to Mr Clement (and/or his nominees) would be approximately $128,333 and Mr Burt (and/or his nominees) would be approximately $128,333. The value may go up or down as it will depend on the future price of a Share;

  • (e) the current remuneration package of Messrs Clement and Burt is the following:

  • (i) Mr Clement's remuneration package with the Company is a base salary of $350,000 per annum, including mandatory superannuation contributions. Mr Clement may be eligible for a short-term incentive of up to $150,000 per annum, subject to the achievement of certain short-term incentive key performance indicators. Mr Clement has a long-term incentive being the issue of 5,000,000 Performance Rights and 10,000,000 Options; and

  • (ii) Mr Burt's remuneration package with the Company is a base salary of $300,000 per annum, including mandatory superannuation contributions. Mr Clement may be eligible for a short-term incentive of up to $150,000 per annum, subject to the achievement of certain short-term incentive key performance indicators. Mr

  • 20 -

Legal/76749895_10

Clement has a long-term incentive being the issue of 5,000,000 Performance Rights;

  • (f) the current security holdings of Messrs Clement and Burt (and/or their nominees) is the following:

  • (i) Mr Clement (and/or his nominees) has 13,366,315 Shares, 10,000,000 Options, and 5,000,000 Performance Rights; and

  • (ii) Mr Burt (and/or his nominees) has 6,117,315 Shares and 5,000,000 Performance Rights;

  • (g) if all the Performance Rights subject to Resolution 4 are converted into Shares, a total of 3,333,332 Shares would be issued. This will increase the number of Shares on issue from 386,955,864 (being the total number of Shares on issue as at the date of this Notice) to 390,289,196 (assuming no further issues of Shares and no convertible securities vest or are exercised) with the effect that the shareholding of existing Shareholders would be diluted by an aggregate of 0.86%;

  • (h) a voting exclusion statement is included in the Notice for the purposes of Resolution 4; and

  • (i) other than the information above and otherwise set out in the Notice, the Company believes that there is no other information that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to pass Resolution 4.

8. Resolution 5 – Section 195 Approval

In accordance with section 195 of the Corporations Act, a director of a public company may not vote or be present during meetings of directors when matters in which that director holds a "material personal interest" are being considered.

Messrs James Clement and Sheldon Burt, Directors, may have a personal interest in the outcome of Resolution 4.

In the absence of this Resolution 4, the Directors may not be able to form a quorum at the directors meetings necessary to carry out the terms of Resolution 4.

The Directors accordingly exercise their right under section 195(4) of the Corporations Act to put the issue to Shareholders to resolve.

Resolution 5 is an ordinary resolution.
