BUSINESS

FINANCIAL REPORT

To receive and consider the Annual Financial Statements, the Directors' Report and Audit Report of the Company and its Controlled Entities for the year ended 28 June 2020.

The above documents are contained in the Annual Report. Shareholders who have elected to receive an electronic copy of the Annual Report can download a copy at Pental.com.au under the "Investors" tab in the "Reports" section. Shareholders who have elected to receive a hard copy of the Annual Report will receive one by post or email.

RESOLUTION 1 - ADOPTION OF REMUNERATION REPORT

To consider and, if thought fit, to pass the following non-binding resolution:

That the Remuneration Report contained in the Directors' Report for the year ended 28 June 2020 be adopted.

Short Explanation

The Corporations Act requires listed companies to put to Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting a non-binding resolution concerning the Remuneration Report which is contained in the Directors' Report section of the Annual Report.

Shareholders will be given an opportunity to ask questions concerning the Remuneration Report at the Annual General Meeting.

As stated, Resolution 1 is non-binding.

Voting Exclusion Statement

The Company will disregard any votes cast on the proposed resolution for adoption of the remuneration report by or on behalf of:

  1. a Key Management Personnel (KMP) named in the Remuneration Report; or
  2. a Closely Related Party of a KMP,

whether the votes are cast as a Shareholder, proxy or in any other capacity.

However, the Company will not disregard a vote cast by a KMP or Closely Related Party of a KMP if it is cast as a proxy and it is not cast on behalf of a KMP or a Closely Related Party of a KMP. If the proxy is the Chairman, and the proxy does not specify the way in which the proxy should vote, the Chairman intends to vote in favour of the resolution

Important for Resolution 1
If you are KMP or a Closely Related Party of KMP (or are acting on behalf of any such person) and purport to cast a vote that will be disregarded by the Company (as indicated above), you may be liable for an offence for breach of voting restrictions that apply to you under the Corporations Act.
RESOLUTION 2 - RETIREMENT OF DIRECTORS BY ROTATION AND BY OPERATION OF THE CONSTITUTION
To consider, and if thought fit, to pass the following resolutions as ordinary resolutions:
2.1 That, having retired pursuant to the Constitution of the Company, John Etherington be re- elected as a director.
Short Explanation
The Company's Constitution requires one third of the directors (other than the Managing Director) to retire at each Annual General Meeting, being the directors longest in office since being re-electedby Shareholders at the date of the Annual General Meeting. It also requires any director appointed during the year to retire at the first AGM held after their election. Mr Etherington must therefore retire and has offered himself for re-election.
Details of the Directors are contained in the Directors' Report section of the Annual Report.
RESOLUTION 3 - ISSUE OF OPTIONS TO MANAGING DIRECTOR
To consider and, if thought fit, to pass, with or without amendment, the following resolution as an ordinary resolution:
That for the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 10.14 and for all other purposes, the issue of Options to Charlie McLeish or his nominee, as referred to in the Explanatory Statement, is approved.
Short Explanation
The Company proposes to issue Options to the Managing Director Charlie McLeish under the Company's Executive Variable Incentive Plan. Mr McLeish is a related party to the Company and therefore the issue of the Options requires Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.14. An issue of securities under ASX Listing Rule 10.14 approved by Shareholders is an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1. The effect of Resolution 3 will be to allow the Company to issue the Options to Mr McLeish without using the Company's 15% annual placement capacity.
Voting Exclusion Statement
The Company will disregard any votes cast in favour of this resolution by or on behalf of Mr McLeish, a person referred to in ASX Listing Rule 10.14.1, 10.14.2 or 10.14.3 who is eligible to participate in the employee incentive scheme in question, , or an associate of those persons.
However, this does not apply to a vote cast in favour of a resolution 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
3
  • 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:
    o 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
    o The holder votes on the resolution in accordance with directions given by the beneficiary to the holder to vote in that way.

Voting Prohibition Statement

A person appointed as a proxy must not vote, on the basis of that appointment, on this resolution if:

  1. the proxy is either:
    1. a member of the KMP; or
    2. a Closely Related Party of such a member; and
  2. the appointment does not specify the way the proxy is to vote on this resolution.

Provided the Chair is not a Resolution 3 Excluded Party, the above prohibition does not apply if:

  1. the proxy is the Chair; and
  2. the appointment expressly authorises the Chair to exercise the proxy even though this resolution is connected directly or indirectly with remuneration of a member of the KMP.

By order of the Board:

Oliver Carton

Company secretary
