Dear Optionholder,
2019 Non Renounceable Rights Issue Offer and Shortfall Offer
As announced on 11 December 2019, Adherium Limited ( Company ) is undertaking a non renounceable pro-rata rights offer to the Company's shareholders ( Offer ). The Offer is open to all eligible shareholders of the Company who are on the share register as at 16 December 2019 ( Record Date ) and who have a registered address in Australia or New Zealand ( Eligible Shareholder ). The Company is seeking to raise a minimum of $2.5 million and a maximum of approximately $5.4 million (before costs) from the Offer, on the basis that no more than approximately 180 million New Shares will be issued pursuant to the Offer. Proceeds raised from the Offer will be used by the Company towards advancing the Company’s plans to develop features in its product range to gain reimbursement, extend the portfolio of products from asthma into COPD, and for working capital purposes.
Under the terms of the Offer, each Eligible Shareholder will have the right to subscribe for New Shares in the Company on the basis of a non-renounceable Rights Issue of 1 new share for each share held as at the Record Date (rounded up to the nearest share) at a price of $0.03 per new share ( Rights Issue Offer ).
You are the holder of unlisted options to purchase shares in the Company. The Rights Issue Offer is only available to holders of shares in the Company, and not with respect to shares that underlie any options that have not been exercised.
The purpose of this letter is to advise you that you are not entitled to participate in the Rights Issue (with respect to any shares that underlie your options) other than to the extent to which you first exercise some or all of your options. The exercise of your options needs to be completed before the Record Date. If you wish to exercise some or all of your options and they are eligible to be exercised on their terms, you should complete a notice of exercise of options (available from the Company) and lodge that notice with the Company Secretary together with your payment of the exercise price for the number of options you wish to exercise. The address for Rob Turnbull, Joint Company Secretary is Level 11, 16 Kingston Street, Auckland 1010, New Zealand.
If you decide to exercise some or all of your options before the Record Date, the shares that issue upon that exercise of those options will be included in your shareholding as at the Record Date for the purposes of the Offer. Your aggregate holding of shares at the Record Date determines the extent of your entitlement to participate in the Rights Issue Offer.
