2. RESOLUTION 3 – CONSOLIDATION OF CAPITAL
2.1 Background
This Resolution seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of section 254H of the
Corporations Act and all other purposes to consolidate the Company's issued capital on
a 50:1 basis (Consolidation).
8
2.2 Legal requirements
Section 254H of the Corporations Act provides that a company may, by resolution passed
in a general meeting, convert all or any of its shares into a larger or smaller number.
Listing Rule 7.20 provides that if an entity proposes to reorganise its capital, it must tell
shareholders of each of the following:
(a) the effect of the proposal on the number of securities and the amount unpaid (if
any) of the securities;
(b) the proposed treatment of any fractional entitlements arising from the
reorganisation; and
(c) the proposed treatment of any convertible securities on issue.
Listing Rule 7.21 provides that an entity which has convertible securities (except options)
on issue may only reorganise its capital if, in respect of the convertible securities, the
number of securities or the conversion price, or both, is reorganised so that the holder of
the convertible securities will not receive a benefit that holders of ordinary securities do not
receive.
Listing Rule 7.22 provides that where an entity with options on issue undertakes a
consolidation of its issued capital, the number of options must be consolidated in the same
ratio as the ordinary capital and the exercise price must be amended in inverse proportion
to that ratio.
2.3 American Depositary Receipt (ADR)
A proportion of the Shares are held in the form of ADRs. Each ADR currently represents an
interest in 600 Shares.
The Company intends to instruct the depositary of its ADRs, HSBC, to adjust the ratio of the
Company's ADRs in the same proportion as contemplated by this Resolution 3, such that
the number of Shares which each ADR will represent on a post-Consolidation basis will be
decreased by a factor of 50 from 600 to 12. As such, the Company does not anticipate
the price of the ADRs to change proportionally to the Consolidation ratio.
2.4 Effect on capital structure
The effect which the Consolidation will have on the Company’s capital structure is set out
in the table below.

2.7 Holding statements
From the date that is two Business Days after the Effective Date (as set out in the timetable

except as evidence of entitlement to a certain number of Securities on a post-

After the Consolidation becomes effective, the Company will arrange for new holding

It is the responsibility of each security holder to check the number of Securities held prior

2.8 Taxation
It is not considered that any taxation implications will exist for security holders arising from
the Consolidation. However, security holders are advised to seek their own tax advice on
the effect of the Consolidation and neither the Company, nor its advisers, accept any
responsibility for the individual taxation implications arising from the Consolidation.
3. RESOLUTION 4 – APPROVAL TO ISSUE OPTIONS TO DIRECTOR – MR JULIAN BABARCZY
3.1 General
The Company has agreed, subject to obtaining Shareholder approval, to issue up to
100,000,000 Options (on a pre-Consolidation basis) to Mr Babarczy (or his nominee(s)) on
the terms and conditions set out in Schedule 1.
Resolution 4 seeks Shareholder approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 10.11 for the issue
of up to 100,000,000 Options (on a pre-Consolidation basis) to Mr Babarczy (or his
nominee(s)).
3.2 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.
The issue constitutes giving a financial benefit and Mr Babarczy is a related party of the
Company by virtue of being a Director.
The Directors (other than Mr Babarczy who has a material personal interest in the
Resolution) consider that Shareholder approval pursuant to Chapter 2E of the Corporations
Act is not required in respect of the issue because the agreement to issue the Options,
11
reached as part of the finalisation of the remuneration package for Mr Babarczy, is
