Explanatory Memorandum
This Explanatory Memorandum sets out further information regarding the proposed resolutions to be considered by Shareholders of WAM Active Limited ( the Company) at the 2015 Annual General Meeting to be held commencing at 9.30 am on 24 November 2015 at the Auditorium, Wesley Conference Centre, 220 Pitt Street, Sydney.
The Directors recommend that Shareholders read this Explanatory Memorandum before determining whether or not to support the resolutions.
Resolution 1: Adoption of Remuneration Report
The Corporations Act requires that at a listed company’s annual general meeting, a resolution that the remuneration report be adopted must be put to the shareholders. However, such a resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company.
The Remuneration Report sets out the Company’s remuneration arrangements for the Directors and senior management of the Company. The Remuneration Report is part of the Directors’ report contained in the annual financial report of the Company for the financial year ending 30 June 2015.
The Directors will consider the outcome of the vote and comments made by shareholders on the Remuneration Report at this meeting when reviewing the Company’s remuneration policies. If 25% or more of the votes cast are “against” the adoption of the Remuneration Report at two consecutive annual general meetings shareholders will be required to vote at the second of those annual general meetings on a resolution (a “spill resolution”) that another meeting of the Company’s members be held within 90 days. At this further meeting, all of the Company’s Directors must go up for election. The spill resolution is an ordinary resolution.
Resolution 2: Re-election of Director – Matthew Kidman
Under Rule 6.5 of the Constitution, one third of the Directors or the number nearest to one third of the Company’s longest serving Directors since the last election or re-election, and not including a Director appointed by the remaining Directors either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing Directors, must retire unless re-elected. Each retiring Director is eligible for re-election in accordance with the Listing Rules and the Constitution.
Resolution 2 provides for the re-election of Mr Matthew Kidman as a Director in accordance with the Constitution.
The Directors (excluding Mr Matthew Kidman) support the re-election of Mr Matthew Kidman and recommend that shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 2.
Resolution 3: Re-election of Director – John Abernethy
Under Rule 6.5 of the Constitution, one third of the Directors or the number nearest to one third of the Company’s longest serving Directors since the last election or re-election, and not including a Director appointed by the remaining Directors either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing Directors, must retire unless re-elected. Each retiring Director is eligible for re-election in accordance with the Listing Rules and the Constitution.
Resolution 3 provides for the re-election of Mr John Abernethy as a Director in accordance with the Constitution.
The Directors (excluding Mr John Abernethy) support the re-election of Mr John Abernethy and recommend that shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3.
Resolution 4: Approval of additional 10% placement capacity
Listing Rule 7.1A
Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an eligible entity may seek shareholder approval by special resolution at its annual general meeting to issue equity securities equivalent to an additional 10% of the number of ordinary securities on issue
4 of 9
WAM Active Limited
Notice of Annual General Meeting 2015
ACN 126 420 719
==> picture [142 x 105] intentionally omitted <==
over a period of 12 months after the annual general meeting ( 10% Placement Capacity ). This is in addition to the existing 15% placement capacity permitted by Listing Rule 7.1.
If Shareholders approve Resolution 4, the number of equity securities the Company may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out below).
An eligible entity is one that, as at the date of the relevant annual general meeting:
-
(a) is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index; and
-
(b) has a maximum market capitalisation (excluding restricted securities and securities quoted on a deferred settlement basis) of $300,000,000.
The Company is an eligible entity as it is not included in the S&P/ASX 300 Index and has a current market capitalisation of less than $300,000,000.
Any equity securities issued must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted equity securities. The Company currently has one class of quoted equity securities on issue, being Shares (ASX Code: WAA).
While the Company does not have any immediate plans to issue equity securities, purposes for which equity securities may be issued pursuant to Resolution 4 may include the raising of capital to facilitate further investment opportunities. The number of equity securities that the Company may issue under the approval sought by Resolution 4 will be calculated in accordance with the following formula as set out in Listing Rule 7.1A.2:
(A x D) – E
Where:
A = the number of fully paid Shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement to issue:
-
(i) plus the number of Shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;
-
(ii) plus the number of partly paid Shares that became fully paid in the 12 months;
-
(iii) plus the number of fully paid Shares issued in the 12 months under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4; and
-
(iv) less the number of fully paid Shares cancelled in the 12 months.
-
D = 10%.
-
E = the number of equity securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of the Shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.
Technical information required by Listing Rule 7.1A
Pursuant to and in accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to Resolution 4:
-
(a) Minimum Price: Under the Listing Rules, the minimum price at which the equity securities may be issued is 75% of the volume weighted average price of equity securities in that 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 5 trading days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the equity securities are issued.
-
(b) Risk of voting dilution: Shareholders should be aware there is a risk of economic and voting dilution that may result from an issue of equity securities under the 10% Placement Capacity, including the risk that:
5 of 9
WAM Active Limited Notice of Annual General Meeting 2015
ACN 126 420 719
==> picture [142 x 105] intentionally omitted <==
-
(i) the market price for equity securities in that class may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the Meeting where approval is being sought; and
-
(ii) the equity securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for those equity securities on the date of issue.
Any issue of equity securities under the 10% Placement Capacity will dilute the interests of Shareholders who do not receive any equity securities under the issue, unless the only equity securities issued under the 10% Placement Capacity are options and these options are not exercised.
If Resolution 4 is approved by Shareholders and the Company issues the maximum number of equity securities available under the 10% Placement Capacity, the economic and voting dilution of existing Shares would be as shown in the table below, assuming that any options issued under the 10% Placement Capacity are exercised.
The table below shows the potential dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in Listing Rule 7.1A.2, on the basis of the current market price of the Shares and the current number of Shares on issue as at the date of this notice of Meeting. The table also assumes that no options on issue are exercised into Shares before the date of issue of the equity securities.
The table also shows the voting dilution impact where the number of Shares on issue (variable A in the formula) changes and the economic dilution where there are changes in the issue price of Shares issued under the 10% Placement Capacity.

| current Variable A | Funds raised | $3,434,682 | $6,869,364 | $13,738,729 |
Notes:
-
The number of Shares on issue (variable A in the formula) could increase as a result of the issue of Shares that do not require Shareholder approval (such as under a pro-rata rights issue or scrip issued under a takeover offer) or that are issued with Shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1.
-
The table above uses the following assumptions:
-
(i) The current Shares on issue are the Shares on issue as at the date of the Notice of Meeting.
-
(ii) The issue price set out above is the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 13 October 2015.
-
(iii) The Company issues the maximum possible number of equity securities under the 10% Placement Capacity and any options issued under the 10% Placement Capacity are exercised.
-
(iv) The Company has not issued any equity securities in the 12 months prior to the Meeting that were not issued under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 or with approval under Listing Rule 7.1.

==> picture [142 x 105] intentionally omitted <==
-
(v) The calculations above do not show the dilution that any one particular Shareholder will be subject to. All Shareholders should consider the dilution caused to their own shareholding depending on their specific circumstances.
-
(vi) This table does not set out any dilution pursuant to approvals under Listing Rule 7.1.
-
(vii) 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%.
-
(c) Date of Issue: equity securities may be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity commencing on the date of the Meeting and expiring on the first to occur of the following:
-
(i) 12 months after the date of the Meeting; and
-
(ii) the date of approval by Shareholders of any transaction under Listing Rules 11.1.2 (a significant change to the nature or scale of the Company’s activities) or 11.2 (disposal of the Company’s main undertaking).
The approval under Listing Rule 7.1A will cease to be valid in the event that Shareholders approve a transaction under Listing Rule 11.1.2 or 11.2.
-
(d) Purpose of Issue under 10% Placement Capacity: The Company may issue equity securities under the 10% Placement Capacity for the following purposes:
-
(i) as cash consideration in which case the Company intends to use funds raised for investment purposes in line with the Company’s investment policy outlined in the Prospectus; or
-
(ii) as non-cash consideration for investments, in such circumstances the Company will provide a valuation of the non-cash consideration as required by Listing Rule 7.1A.3.
-
(e) Allocation under the 10% Placement Capacity: The allottees of the equity securities to be issued under the 10% Placement Capacity have not yet been determined. However, the allottees of equity securities could consist of current Shareholders or new investors (or both), none of whom will be related parties of the Company.
The Company will determine the allottees at the time of the issue under the 10% Placement Capacity, having regard to the following factors:
-
(i) the purpose of the issue;
-
(ii) alternative methods for raising funds available to the Company at that time, including, but not limited to, an entitlement issue or other offer where existing Shareholders may participate;
-
(iii) the effect of the issue of the equity securities on the control of the Company;
-
(iv) the circumstances of the Company, including, but not limited to, the financial position and solvency of the Company;
-
(v) prevailing market conditions; and
-
(vi) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).
(f) Previous Approval under Listing Rule 7.1A: The Company obtained shareholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1A at the 2014 Annual General Meeting held on 28 November 2014.
Information under Listing Rule 7.3A.6(a): The table below shows the total number of equity securities issued in the last 12 months preceding the date of the Annual General Meeting and the percentage those issues represent of the total number of equity securities on issue at the commencement of the 12 month period.

Voting Exclusion
A voting exclusion statement is included under Resolution 4 in this notice of Meeting. As at the date of this Notice, the Company has not invited any existing Shareholder to participate in an issue of equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A. Therefore, no existing Shareholders will be excluded from voting on Resolution 4.
Resolution 4 is a special resolution . Accordingly, at least 75% of votes cast by Shareholders present and eligible to vote at the Meeting must be in favour of Resolution 4 for it to be passed.
Resolution 5 – Appointment of Auditor
Moore Stephens Sydney has been a long standing auditor of the Company. The Board and management have been, and continue to be, satisfied with the audit services of Moore Stephens Sydney.
Moore Stephens Sydney has agreed to merge with Pitcher Partners commencing 31 October 2015 with the new entity becoming Pitcher Partners. The combined firm will include 27 partners and 240 staff.
This merger cements the Moore Stephens Sydney practice in the Sydney marketplace ultimately to provide greater depth and spread of expertise to clients and the combined firm will provide further strength in their specialist areas. The merger is beneficial to larger and more complex clients given the combined capability and depth of service offering of the Pitcher Partners Association. The Pitcher Partners Association of firms in Melbourne, Sydney, Perth, Adelaide, Newcastle and Brisbane is the 8th largest in Australia with 110 partners, of which 27 are audit partners, and more than 1200 staff. The Moore Stephens Sydney practice will further have access to the benefits and resources of becoming members of Baker Tilly International – the 8th largest independent network of accounting firms in the world.
With the dissolution of the Moore Stephens Sydney partnership as part of the broader merger, we are required to undergo a change in auditor process. This requires the resignation of the current Moore Stephens Sydney partnership and the appointment of the new auditor being Pitcher Partners.
Moore Stephens Sydney is in the process of seeking consent from ASIC to resign as auditor of the Company with effect from the end of the Annual General Meeting.
Once consent has been obtained from ASIC, Moore Stephens Sydney will give its notice of resignation to the Company with effect from the date determined by ASIC.
We have reviewed Pitcher Partners suitability for the role of external auditor. The outcome of this review was a recommendation that Pitcher Partners be appointed as the new auditor of the Company.
The Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) requires that Shareholders approve the appointment of a new auditor.
Pitcher Partners has consented to act as auditor of the Company.
The Board recommends that shareholders vote in favour of the appointment of Pitcher Partners as the Company’s auditors.
