Voting Instructions

Snapshot Date and Voting Entitlements

For the purposes of determining voting entitlements at the General Meeting, the Directors have determined that, under Corporations Regulation 7.11.37, all Shares of the Company that are quoted securities at 7:00 pm (Melbourne time) on 29 April 2010 are taken to be held by the persons who are registered as holding them at that time. The entitlement of Shareholders to vote at the General Meeting will be determined by reference to that time. Accordingly, transactions registered after that time will be disregarded in determining entitlements to attend and vote at the General Meeting.

Questions and Comments

The Chairman will give Shareholders a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about or comment on the Resolution.

Proxies

A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the General Meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy. The proxy may be an individual or a body corporate. A proxy need not be a Shareholder of the Company. A Shareholder who is entitled to cast 2 or more votes may appoint 2 proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If a Shareholder appoints 2 proxies and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the Shareholder’s votes each proxy may exercise, each proxy may exercise half of the votes (disregarding fractions).

For an appointment of a proxy to be valid, the Proxy Form and, if the Proxy Form is signed under a power of attorney or other authority, the authority under which the Proxy Form is signed (or a certified copy of the authority) must be received at the following addresses or by fax at least 48 hours prior to the General Meeting at which the proxy intends to vote:

IM Medical Limited Security Transfer Registrars Pty Ltd Level 1, 117 Church Street 770 Canning Highway Hawthorn VIC 3122 Applecross WA 6153 Fax: (03) 9860 0999 Fax: (08) 9315 2233

A Proxy Form accompanies this Notice of General Meeting. Additional Proxy Forms are available on request from the registered office of the Company or its share registry, Security Transfer Registrars Pty Ltd.

You may direct your proxy how to vote by placing a mark in one of the boxes opposite the Resolutions. All your shareholding will be voted in accordance with such a direction unless you indicate only a portion of voting rights are to be voted on the Resolutions by inserting the percentage or number of Shares you wish to vote in the appropriate box or boxes. If you do not mark any of the boxes on the Resolutions, your proxy may vote as he or she chooses. If you mark more than one box on a Resolution your vote on the Resolutions will be invalid.

Corporate Shareholders

Corporate Shareholders should comply with the execution requirements set out on the Proxy Form or otherwise with the provisions of section 127 of the Corporations Act. Section 127 provides that a company may execute a document without using its common seal if the document is signed by:

  • (a) two directors of the company;

  • (b) a director and a company secretary of the company; or

  • (c) for a proprietary company that has a sole director who is also the sole company secretary — that director.

Corporate Representatives

A Shareholder which is a corporation may elect to appoint an individual to act as its representative in accordance with section 250D of the Corporations Act, in which case the Company will require a certificate of appointment of the corporate representative executed in accordance with the Corporations Act. The certificate of appointment must be lodged with the Company and/or the Company's share registry, Share Transfer Registrars Pty Ltd, before the General Meeting or at the registration desk on the day of the General Meeting.

Explanatory Statement

This Explanatory Statement, its Annexures and all attachments are important documents that form part of this Notice of Meeting and should be read carefully in their entirety.

Explanatory Statement

This Explanatory Statement has been prepared for the Shareholders of IM Medical Limited in connection with the General Meeting of the Company to be held on Friday 30[th] April 2010 at 9:30am.

2. Resolution 1 Refreshing capacity to issue equity securities following issues of equity securities in the Company

The approval proposed in Resolution 1 is a subsequent approval of permitted issues of shares in order to refresh the Company's capacity to issue further shares pursuant to Listings Rule 7.1 and 7.4.

Listing Rule 7.1 provides that the Company can only issue up to 15% of the Company's 'equity securities' (subject to certain exclusions and exceptions) in any 12 month period without obtaining shareholder approval.

Listing Rule 7.4 provides that an issue of equity securities made without the need for approval under Listing Rule 7.1 is treated as having been made with approval for the purpose of Listing Rule 7.1 if:

  • the issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1 and

  • members of the company subsequently approve it.

Such approval refreshes the capacity of the Company to issue additional equity securities as permitted under Listing Rule 7.1 within the 15% limit. This is the approval the Company now seeks under Resolution 1.

The Company has issued the following equity securities without approval under Listing Rule 7.1 ( Equity Securities ):

  • (a) 190,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares in the Company;

  • (b) 6,000,000 options in the Company over 6,000,000 Shares, exercisable at $0.00333 per option on or before 2 November 2012; and

  • (c) 2,000,000 options in the Company over 2,000,000 Shares, exercisable at $0.00288 per option on or before 2 December 2012; and

  • (d) 4,000,000 options in the Company over 4,000,000 Shares, exercisable at $0.00279 per option on or before 17 December 2012; and

  • (e) 4,000,000 options in the Company over 4,000,000 Shares, exercisable at $0.00270 per option on or before 4 January 2013; and

  • (f) 2,000,000 options in the Company over 2,000,000 Shares, exercisable at $0.00270 per option on or before 14 January 2013; and

  • (g) 3,000,000 options in the Company over 3,000,000 Shares, exercisable at $0.00351 per option on or before 22 January 2013; and

Page 5

[5536059: 6311172_13]

==> picture [109 x 20] intentionally omitted <==

  • (h) 8,000,000 options in the Company over 8,000,000 Shares, exercisable at $0.00351 per option on or before 29 January 2013; and

  • (i) 3,000,000 options in the Company over 3,000,000 Shares, exercisable at $0.00297 per option on or before 19 February 2013; and

  • (j) 3,000,000 options in the Company over 3,000,000 Shares, exercisable at $0.00297 per option on or before 3 March 2013."

  • (k) 3,000,000 options in the Company over 3,000,000 Shares, exercisable at $0.00189 per option on or before 25 March 2013."

All of the shares issued and the options when converted will rank equally with the fully paid ordinary shares of the Company already on issue. The issue of the 190,000,000 Equity Securities without approval did not exceed the Listing Rule 7.1 15% limit, and so did not breach Listing Rule 7.1. As a result of these share issues, the Company cannot issue additional equity securities in the next 12 months without member approval or unless an exception to Listing Rule 7.1 applies.

If members approve this resolution, the Company will have the flexibility to issue more shares in the next 12 months without requiring approval at a meeting of members should the Board believe it is in the best interests of the Company to do so. If this resolution is approved by members, the Company will thereafter be able to issue at least an additional 272,164,511 equity securities without member approval.

If this resolution is not passed:

  • (a) the Company was not required, under Listing Rule 7.1, to seek member approval prior to the issues of the equity securities described in this resolution, so the absence of approval will not invalidate the issues of the equity securities;

  • (b) the Company's ability to issue further equity securities in the 12 month period will be reduced, unless member approval is obtained for the said subsequent issue or that issue falls within an exception to Listing Rule 7.1.

For the purposes of Listing Rules 7.4 and 7.5, the Company notes that the following share issues were made to Fortrend Small Cap investors pursuant to the $5 million Standby Subscription Agreement which the Company entered into with Fortrend in August 2008:

Date of issue No of fully paid
ordinary shares

listed Options

The funds raised from the issues listed in (a) to (k) above were used for working capital purposes.
