ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

4 January 2021

ANTERIS RECEIVES $1,220,000 RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ADVANCE

Anteris Technologies Ltd (ASX: AVR) ( Anteris or the Company ) confirms that it has entered into a short-term facility for the advance of $1,220,000 that provides the Company with immediate funds equivalent to its forecasted research & development (R&D) tax incentive offset for the majority of the 2020 calendar year.

The Australian Government’s R&D Tax Incentive encourages companies to engage in R&D, by providing a refundable tax offset for eligible R&D activities, thereby assisting businesses to recover some of their costs related to R&D.

The R&D refund confirms Anteris’ significant and ongoing commitment to invest in, research and develop its ADAPT[®] technology and product development pipeline including DurAVR[TM] , Anteris’ 3D single-piece Aortic Valve. The Company plans to use these funds for further Research and Development activities. Note that this announcement will not lift the current suspension of trading.

The key terms of the facility are:

  • The advance is equivalent to the expected R&D claim for the 10 months ended 31 October 2020

  • Interest rate of 1.15% per month for the period of the facility

  • The advance may be repaid by the Company at any time with a minimum three-month effective interest term

  • Facility approval fee of 0.75%, being $9,150

  • The advance is primarily secured against the R&D refund due in 2021

  • Facility provided by Mitchell Asset Management Pty Ltd
