About Living Cell Technologies

Living Cell Technologies Limited (ASX:LCT) is an Australasian biotechnology company that has focused on discovering and developing novel treatments for debilitating conditions such as diabetes and Parkinson’s disease. LCT has secured initial funding for a third clinical with NTCELL (alginate coated capsule containing clusters of neonatal porcine choroid plexus cells) after completing phase IIa and IIb clinical studies in Parkinson’s disease. In a Phase IIb trial of NTCELL, there was not a statistically significant difference between the groups who received NTCELL and the placebo group at the 26-week study endpoint. However, at 24 months post-implant a clinically relevant effect was observed (<-6.45 points from baseline) in two of the three treatment groups. In the third clinical trial LCT will seek to alter the rate of disease progression in earlyto-mid stage Parkinson’s disease. LCT has out-licensed DIABECELL (alginate coated capsule containing neonatal porcine pancreatic cells) to Diatranz Otsuka Limited to continue the development of a cell therapy for type 1 diabetes in return for a royalty arrangement. LCT continues to seek new product project opportunities and also interactions that leverage its financial assets. LCT is listed on the Australian (ASX: LCT) and US (OTCQB: LVCLY) stock exchanges. The company is incorporated in Australia, with its operations based in Australia and New Zealand.

Dear Shareholder

LIVING CELL TECHNOLOGIES LIMITED (ASX:LCT] Renounceable Rights Issue – Notification to Ineligible Shareholders

On Monday 15 November 2021 Living Cell Technologies Limited ( LCT ) announced a pro rata renounceable rights issue of new LCT ordinary shares ( New Shares ) and options to acquire new LCT Shares ( New Options ) to raise approximately $3,802,000 ( Rights Issue ).

The proceeds from the Rights Issue will primarily be used to fund a third clinical trial of its NTCELL project, in payment of expenses of the Offer and for general working capital purposes.

The Rights Issue will provide an opportunity for eligible shareholders to subscribe for 2 New Shares for every 3 existing LCT ordinary shares held on the Record Date of 7:00pm (Sydney time) on 18 November 2021 and 1 New Option for every 3 New Shares issued. The offer price for each New Share is $0.008. Fractional entitlements have been rounded up to the nearest whole number of New Shares. The exercise price for each New Option is $0.015.

The Company has decided that it is unreasonable to make offers under the Rights Issue to shareholders with a registered address outside Australia and New Zealand ( Ineligible Shareholders ), having regard to the number of such shareholders, their holdings and the compliance costs required to offer the Shares under the Rights Issue to those shareholders.

Unfortunately, since you are an Ineligible Shareholder, no offer is being made to you and the offer document prepared by the Company in relation to the Rights issue will not be sent to you. This letter is neither an offer to issue New Shares to you, nor an invitation for you to apply for New Shares.

You do not have to take any further action in relation to the Rights Issue.
