Dear Fellow Shareholder

AdAlta Limited - ENTITLEMENT OFFER

NOTIFICATION TO ELIGIBLE SHAREHOLDERS

On 23 May 2019, AdAlta Limited (ASX code: 1AD) announced a $7 million equity raising through a placement to institutional investors at $0.15 per new share (with one free attaching new option for every 2 new shares subscribed for) to raise approximately $5 million ( Placement ), and a 1 for 8.8 non-renounceable entitlement offer of new fully paid ordinary shares ( New S hares ) in AdAlta Limited at a fixed offer price of $0.15 per New Share (and one free attaching new option for every two New Shares) to raise approximately $2 million ( Entitlement Offer ).

The net proceeds of the Placement and Entitlement Offer will be used to progress AD-214 to a major value inflection point: taking AdAlta’s potential new treatment for Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) into a phase I study, demonstrating the safety of its lead i-body candidate. The proceeds will also be used to provide Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) materials for clinical studies as well as for the expansion of AdAlta’s pipeline, general working capital and costs of the offer.

Summary of key terms of the Entitlement Offer

The Entitlement Offer entitles eligible shareholders to subscribe for 1 New Share for every 8.8 existing ordinary shares held in AdAlta Limited (and 1 free new option for every 2 New Shares issued) held at 7:00pm (AEDT) on 28 May 2019 ( Record Date ) at an offer price of $0.15 per new share ( Entitlement ).

  • (b) have a registered address on the AdAlta Limited share register in Australia or New Zealand; and

  • (c) are not in the United States and are not acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States.

The Entitlement Offer is being made by AdAlta Limited in accordance with section 713 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) ( Act ). AdAlta lodged a prospectus for the Entitlement Offer with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission on 23 May 2019.

Further details about the Entitlement Offer

The Entitlement Offer is not underwritten.

Fractional Entitlements will be rounded up to the nearest whole number of New Shares and holdings on different registers or sub-registers will not be aggregated to calculate Entitlements.

Shareholder approval is not required for AdAlta Limited to make the offer under the Entitlement Offer.
