Item 6 - Adoption of New Constitution

Pursuant to the Corporations Act, the Company’s Constitution may only be amended or repealed by special resolution, that is, by a resolution that has been passed by at least 75% of the votes cast by Shareholders entitled to vote on the resolution.

The resolution in Item 6 is a special resolution to repeal the Company's existing Constitution ( Existing Constitution ) and adopt a new Constitution ( New Constitution ) updated to ensure that it reflects the current ASX Listing Rules and corporations law practice. The Existing Constitution was adopted in January 2015. The New Constitution incorporates numerous amendments to reflect changes to corporations legislation, the ASX Listing Rules and generally update the Constitution in keeping with market standards.

The Board believes that it is preferable in the circumstances to replace the Existing Constitution with the New Constitution rather than to amend a multitude of specific provisions.

The New Constitution is broadly consistent with the provisions of the Existing Constitution. Many of the proposed changes are administrative or minor in nature. It is not practicable to list all of the differences in detail in this Explanatory Statement, however, a summary of the material changes to the Existing Constitution are set out in the table below.

A copy of the New Constitution is available for review by Shareholders at the Company’s website www.wingaraag.com.au and at the office of the Company. A copy of the New Constitution can also be sent to Shareholders upon request sent to the Company Secretary at [email protected].

The key provisions and material terms that have been updated, are as follows:

Clause Subject matter Change
9.7 Technology enabled general meetings The Corporations Amendment (Meetings and
Documents) Act 2021 amends the
Corporations Act to establish a permanent
mechanism to allow companies to hold hybrid
(in person and remote) or entirely virtual
shareholder meetings. The Company
believes that it would be prudent to update
the existing constitution to allow for flexibility
in the way the Company can hold
Shareholder meetings.
9.26 Direct voting Insertion of a new provision allowing
members to exercise their voting rights
through direct voting (in addition to existing
rights to appoint a proxy, attorney or
representative).

Page 9

13.1 Circulating directors’ resolutions
approved by majority
Inclusion of a provision which permits
circulating resolutions of directors to be
approved by a majority of directors entitled to
vote on the resolution.
13.5 Technology-enabled directors’
meetings
Insertion of new provisions which more
comprehensively cover the use of technology
at directors’ meetings.
13.6 Quorum for directors’ meetings Amended to allow the board to set the
quorum.
20.1 Escrow provisions in relation to
restricted securities
Insertion of new provisions addressing recent
ASX updates regarding escrow provisions for
restricted securities.

Director’s Recommendation

The Board considers that it is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders to adopt the New Constitution and unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of this resolution.

Item 7 – Approval of Employee Share Option Plan and Employee Share Scheme

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company may not issue Equity Securities, or agree to issue Equity Securities, without the approval of shareholders, if the number of Equity Securities to be issued in any 12-month period (including shares issued on the exercise of any options) exceeds 15% of the issued capital of the company preceding the issue.

ASX Listing Rule 7.2 contains a number of exceptions to the prohibition contained in ASX Listing Rule 7.1. In particular, under Exception 13 in ASX Listing Rule 7.2, any Equity Securities issued under an employee incentive scheme within three years of the date on which shareholders approve the issue of those Equity Securities are excluded when calculating the capacity of the Company to issue shares in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.1. This Resolution is designed to satisfy the requirements of Exception 13 in ASX Listing Rule 7.2 in relation to the Employee Share Option Plan (Plan) and Employee Share Scheme (Scheme).

If this Resolution is passed, the Company will have the ability to issue Equity Securities to eligible participants under the Plan and Scheme over a period of 3 years without impacting on the Company’s 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1.

If this Resolution is not passed, and if the Board decides to issue any Equity Securities under the Plan and/or Scheme (notwithstanding the non-approval), any Securities issued will be included in calculating the Company’s capacity under Listing Rule 7.1, effectively decreasing the number of equity securities it can issue without Shareholder approval over the 12-month period following the issue date.

Page 10

The Plan and Scheme are designed as a standard component of KMP and employee remuneration and are intended to comprise the long-term incentive component of remuneration for senior executives, including executive directors.

Other than the Plan and Scheme, the Company has no other employee or executive share-based plans. Grants made under the Scheme are subject to a performance period and performance rights will only vest if the relevant performance conditions are satisfied at the end of the relevant assessment period. Grants made under the Plan are subject to an exercise price and vesting date. The Plan and Scheme have generally been designed to link rewards to eligible employees with improvements in Company performance and the delivery of returns to Shareholders, and to reward performance.

The Plan and Scheme were last approved by Shareholders at the Company’s Annual General Meeting on 28 August 2019 (the 2019 AGM ), and the Company seeks further approval of the Plan and Scheme to allow for the issue of Equity Securities under the Plan and Scheme.

Since the Plan was last approved, the Company has as at the date of this notice issued 2,450,000 Options to employees of the Company of which:

  • a) Nil have been exercised;

  • b) 1,700,000 have been cancelled due to non-continuation of employment; and

  • c) 750,000 are currently on issue.

A summary of the key terms of the Plan is attached as Annexure “A”.

The maximum number of securities proposed to be issued under the Plan following approval will be 8,777,125 from time to time.

Since the Scheme was last approved, the Company has as at the date of this notice issued 4,967,889 Performance Rights to employees of the Company of which:

  • a) 1,151,286 have vested;

  • b) 439,794 have lapsed due to non-continuation of employment; and

  • c) 3,376,809 currently on issue.

A summary of the key terms of the Scheme is attached as Annexure “A”.

The maximum number of securities proposed to be issued under the Scheme following approval will be 8,777,125 from time to time.

Item 7 seeks Shareholder approval to adopt the Plan and Scheme to enable the Company to issue equity securities to eligible employees.

Voting Exclusion Statement

The Company will disregard any votes cast in favour of this resolution by or on behalf of:

  • any person who is eligible to participate in the employee share option plan and the employee share scheme;

Page 11

or

  • any associates of those persons.

However, the Company need not disregard a vote if it is cast by:

  • a person as proxy or attorney for a person who is entitled to vote on the Resolution, in accordance with directions given to the proxy or attorney to vote on the Resolution in that way; or

  • the Chair of the Meeting as proxy or attorney for a person who is entitled to vote on the Resolution, in accordance with a direction given to the Chair to vote on the Resolution as the Chair decides; or

  • a holder acting solely in a nominee, trustee, custodial or other fiduciary capacity on behalf of a beneficiary provided the following conditions are met:

  • The beneficiary provides written confirmation to the holder that the beneficiary is not excluded from voting, and is not an associate of a person excluded from voting, on the Resolution; and

  • The holder votes on the Resolution in accordance with directions given by the beneficiary to the holder to vote in that way.

Directors’ Recommendation

The directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of this resolution.

Item 8 – Additional 10% Placement Capacity

ASX Listing Rule 7.1A provides that an eligible entity (as defined below) may seek security holder 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 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 ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

Item 8 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 Item 8 for it to be passed.

If Item 8 is approved, the number of equity securities the Company may issue under the 10% Placement Capacity will be determined in accordance with the formula prescribed in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A.2 (as set out below).

Page 12

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.

As at the date of this Notice, 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 $8,583,570 million (based on the number of Shares on issue which excludes restricted securities and the closing price of Shares on ASX on 4 July 2022).

Any equity securities issued must be in the same class as an existing class of quoted equity securities. The Company currently has two classes of securities, being quoted fully paid ordinary shares and unquoted options (ASX Code: WNR).

The number of equity securities that the Company may issue under the approval sought by Item 8 will be calculated in accordance with the following formula as set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1A:

(A x D) – E

Where:

  • A = the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of the relevant period

  • (the relevant period):

  • (i) plus, the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2 other than exception 9,16 or 17;

  • (ii) plus, the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period on the conversion of convertible securities under rule 7.2 exception 9 where:

    • a. the convertible securities were issued or agreed to be issued before the commencement of the relevant period; or

    • b. the issue of, or agreement to issue, the convertible securities was approved, or taken under these rules to have been approved, under rule 7.1 or rule 7.4;

  • (iii) plus, the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period under an agreement to issue securities within rule 7.2 exception 16 where:

    • a. The agreement was entered into before the commencement of the relevant period; or

    • b. the agreement or issue was approved, or taken under these rules to have been approved, under rule 7.1 or 7.4;

  • (iv) plus, the number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in the relevant period with approval under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.4;

  • (v) Plus, the number of partly paid ordinary securities that became fully paid in the relevant period;

  • (vi) less the number of fully paid ordinary securities cancelled in the relevant period.

Page 13

D = 10%.

E = the number of equity securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the relevant period where the date of issue or agreement has not been subsequently approved by the holders of its ordinary securities under rule 7.4.

Specific information required by Listing Rule 7.1A

Pursuant to and in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.3A, the information below is provided in relation to Item 8:

Minimum price

Under the ASX Listing Rules, the securities may only be issued for cash consideration per security which is not less than 75% of the volume weighted average price of securities in that class, calculated over the 15 ASX trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before:

  • (a) the date on which the price at which the equity securities are to be issued is agreed; by the Company and the recipient of the securities or

  • (b) if the securities are not issued within 10 ASX trading days of the date in paragraph (i) above, the date on which the securities are issued.

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:

  • 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

  • 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.

If Item 8 is approved 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.

Page 14

The table below shows the potential dilution of existing Shareholders calculated in accordance with the formula outlined in ASX 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.[ 1]

Notes:

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

  • (a) The Company issues the maximum number of shares available under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A;

  • (b) The table shows only the effect of shares issued under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A and does not factor in the Company’s ability to issue up to 15% of its issued capital under ASX Listing Rule 7.1;

  • (c) The current issue price is $0.049, being the closing price of the Shares on ASX on 4 July 2022.

Page 15

  • (d) The current number of securities on issue is the Shares on issue as at 4 July 2022 , being 175,542,504.

The table shows:

  • two examples where Variable “A” has increased, by 50% and 100%. Variable “A” is based on the number of Shares the Company has on issue. The number of Shares on issue may increase as a result of issues of Shares that do not require approval (for example, a pro rata entitlements issue) or future specific placements under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 that are approved at a future Shareholders’ meeting; and

  • two examples of where the issue price of shares has decreased by 50% and increased by 100% as against the current market price.

Period for which the approval will be valid

If Shareholder approval is granted for Item 8, then that approval will expire on the earlier of:

  • (a) 31 August 2023, being 12 months from the date of the Meeting;
