Dear Shareholder,
Share Purchase Plan – Eligible Shareholders may purchase parcels of fully paid ordinary shares up to a value of A$15,000
On behalf of BluGlass Limited ( BluGlass ), I am pleased to offer you the opportunity to increase your investment in BluGlass through a Share Purchase Plan (the SPP ) which was announced on Tuesday, 5 May 2015.
Shareholders on BluGlass’ register at 5 pm AEST on 4 May, 2015 with registered addresses in Australia and New Zealand (provided that such shareholder is not in the United States or acting for the account or benefit
of a U.S. Person) will be given the opportunity to apply for up to A$15,000 worth of BluGlass’ ordinary shares ( New Shares ) at the fixed subscription price of 6.25 cents per New Share via the SPP, without incurring brokerage or other transaction costs. This subscription price represents a 18.83% discount to the closing price of the Company’s shares on the day before the announcement of the SPP on 4 May, 2015 and a 18.53% discount to the volume weighted average price of BluGlass shares traded on the ASX over the 5 trading days prior the announcement date.
Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the SPP, eligible shareholders will be offered the opportunity to acquire parcels of New Shares to the value of $A3,000, A$5,000, A$7,500, A$10,000 or A$15,000. The minimum application under the SPP is A$3,000. Under the Terms and Conditions of the SPP, BluGlass may in its absolute discretion choose to scale back applications under the SPP if (amongst other things) applications received exceed A$2 million or any other such amount as determined by the Directors. If there is a scale back, BluGlass may allocate less than the number of New Shares applied for by each Eligible Shareholder to the extent and in the manner as it sees fit.
Your right to participate in the SPP is not transferrable.
Each of the Directors of BluGlass has indicated their intention to apply for their maximum entitlement of shares in the SPP.
The SPP opens on 6 May, 2015 and is expected to close at 5pm (Sydney time) on 1 June, 2015.

==> picture [191 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
Participation in the SPP is entirely voluntary. Eligible Shareholders who are custodians for certain eligible beneficiaries will also be invited to participate in the SPP as set out in the Terms and Conditions of the SPP attached to this letter.
All New Shares issued under the SPP will rank equally with existing fully paid ordinary shares and will carry the same voting rights and entitlement to receive dividends. The issue of New Shares is expected to occur on 3 June 2015.
The SPP is not underwritten.
Purpose of the SPP
The purpose of the SPP is to provide funds to further progress the development and commercialisation of BluGlass’ technology. BluGlass announced on 22 April, 2015, that Veeco Instruments Inc, is evaluating BluGlass’ RPCVD grown p-GaN for power electronics and green LED applications. The funds subscribed in the SPP will partially be used to fund and progress BluGlass’ share of the development cost of this evaluation.
Strategic Update
As announced to the shareholders on Tuesday, 5 May 2015, BluGlass continues to review all options for the commercialisation of its RPCVD technology. The Board wishes to advise shareholders that the Company is currently at an early stage of discussions with respect to a number of potential strategic transactions. No agreement has been reached with any party or in respect of any particular transaction, and BluGlass continues to evaluate a range of different options. Should any of these discussions lead to terms being agreed or in the event of any material development, the Board will advise shareholders at that time.
How to accept this offer
To apply for New Shares under the SPP, please follow the instructions on the enclosed personalised Application Form and either:
-
(a) complete and return the Application Form, together with payment via cheque or money order; or
-
(b) make a payment directly via Bpay (you do not need to return an Application Form under this option).

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
IMPORTANT NOTICE: The offer to purchase New Shares under this Share Purchase Plan (SPP) is not a recommendation to purchase shares in BluGlass, and this document has been prepared without taking account of any person’s investment objectives, financial situation or particular needs. If you are in any doubt about whether or not, or the extent that, you should participate in this SPP, you should obtain professional financial and/or taxation advice to assist you (taking into account your own financial situation, needs and objectives). Nothing in these Terms and Conditions, the Application Form or any other accompanying documentation constitutes investment or financial product advice or is intended to influence your decision whether or not to participate in the SPP.
If you apply to participate in the SPP by completing and returning the Application Form or by making a payment by Bpay, you are accepting the risk that the market price of shares in BluGlass may change between the Opening Date, the date on which you send in an Application Form or by making a payment by Bpay and the Allotment Date. This means it is possible that, up to or after the Allotment Date, you may be able to buy shares in BluGlass at a lower price than the Issue Price. The Issue Price for the New Shares under the SPP is fixed, and any change in the market price of BluGlass Shares will not have any effect on the price that you must pay for the New Shares.
Set out below are the Terms and Conditions of the BluGlass Limited Share Purchase Plan which are binding on any Shareholder participating in the SPP. The Application Form forms part of this document.
Capitalised terms used in these Terms and Conditions are both defined in the body of these Terms and Conditions as well as in clause 17.

You are eligible to participate in the SPP ( Eligible Shareholder ) if you were a registered on the security register as a holder of one or more fully paid ordinary shares in BluGlass at 5.00pm (Sydney time) on 4 May 2015 ( Record Date ) and your address in the security register of BluGlass is in Australia or New Zealand at that time, unless:

==> picture [191 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
on different Application Forms but may not apply for New Shares with an aggregate value of more than A$15,000.
-
3.3. ( Joint Holders ) If you are recorded with one or more other persons as the joint holder of BluGlass Shares, that joint holding is considered to be a single registered holding for the purposes of the SPP and, subject to the conditions of eligibility set out in this clause 3, the joint holders are entitled to participate in the SPP in respect of that single holding only. The certification under clause 9.1(e) by one joint holder will be effective in respect of the other joint holder(s).

-
3.4. ( Custodians, Trustees and Nominees ) This SPP is extended to Eligible Shareholders who are a custodian within the definition of 'custodian' in ASIC Class Order CO 09/425 ( Custodian ) and who wish to apply for SPP Shares on behalf of a person:

If you are a registered holder of BluGlass Shares on behalf of one or more Eligible Beneficiaries and you wish to apply to acquire New Shares on behalf of each Eligible Beneficiary, you must certify in writing to BluGlass a number of matters relating to such beneficiaries ( Custodian Certificate ).
If you are a Custodian please contact the Security Registry to obtain the form of Custodian Certificate that you are required to submit. Applications by Custodians on behalf of their Eligible Beneficiaries that are not accompanied by a duly completed Custodian Certificate will be rejected.
If you hold BluGlass Shares as a trustee or nominee for another person, but are not a 'custodian' as defined above, you cannot participate for Beneficiaries in the manner described above. In this case, the rules for multiple single holdings (above) apply.
Nominees and other registered holders of BluGlass Shares that are acting on behalf of a person in the United States must not (i) send this document or any other document relating to the SPP to any person in the United States or (ii) purport to exercise rights
==> picture [539 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [191 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
under this offer on behalf of a person in the United States.
- 3.5. If you are an Eligible Shareholder, your rights under this offer are personal to you and are nonrenounceable, which means you cannot transfer your rights to another person.
4. How much can you invest?
The minimum application amount under the SPP is A$3,000. Applications under the SPP may only be made for the following amounts (subject to the discretionary scale back described in clause 12):
-
A$3,000;
-
A$5,000;
-
A$7,500;
-
A$10,000; and
-
A$15,000.
The offer under the SPP needs to comply with the limit in ASIC Class Order CO 09/425. Under that class order, Eligible Shareholders (other than Custodians) are not permitted to acquire more than A$15,000 worth of BluGlass Shares in aggregate, even if you receive more than one Application Form or hold BluGlass Shares in more than one capacity, e.g. if you are both a sole and joint holder of BluGlass Shares.
5. Issue Price of New Shares under the SPP
-
5.1. The price per New Share on offer under the SPP ( Issue Price ) is $0.0625 per New Share.
-
5.2. The current BluGlass Share price can be obtained from the ASX website at www.asx.com.au (ASX code: BLG) and is listed in the financial and business section of major daily newspapers circulated in Australia.
-
5.3. A$0.0625 per New Share represents a discount of 18.83% to the closing price of BluGlass Shares on 4 May 2015 (being the day before the announcement of the SPP) and a 22.37% discount to the volume weighted average price of BluGlass shares traded on the ASX over the 20 trading days prior the announcement date.
-
5.4. You agree to pay the Issue Price for each New Share calculated under clauses 5.1 and 6.2 or, if there is a Scaleback (as defined in clause 12 below), the number of BluGlass Shares calculated under clause 12.
==> picture [539 x 48] intentionally omitted <==
9
==> picture [191 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
-
5.5. You acknowledge that the market price of BluGlass Shares may rise or fall between the date of this SPP and the date that New Shares are allotted to you under the SPP ( Allotment Date ) and that the effect of this is that the Issue Price you pay for the New Shares may exceed the market price of BluGlass Shares on the Allotment Date.
-
Applying for New Shares
-
6.1. If you are an Eligible Shareholder and wish to participate in the SPP, you must follow the instructions on the SPP Application Form ( Application Form ) and either:
- a. complete the Application Form and return it with a cheque or money order made payable to "BluGlass Limited", and send it to the Security Registry at:
PO Box 535, Applecross WA 6953
The completed Application Form and cheque or money order must be received by the Security Registry by 5.00pm (Sydney time) on the Closing Date. Payments must be denominated in Australian dollars. All cheques must be drawn on an Australian bank and crossed “Not Negotiable”.
-
b. To pay via Bpay you will need to:
-
be an account holder with an Australian financial institution;
-
use the personalised reference number shown on your Application Form which is required to identify your shareholding; and
-
ensure that your payment is received by the Security Registry before 5.00pm (Sydney time) on the Closing Date.
If you are paying via Bpay there is no need to return the Application Form but you will be taken to have made the statements and certifications that are set out in the Terms and Conditions and Application Form.
-
6.2. If you apply for New Shares under the SPP, you will apply for a certain value, rather than a certain number, of New Shares. Subject to clause 6.3 BluGlass will divide the parcel value you select by the Issue Price in order to determine the number of New Shares for which you have applied (rounded down to the nearest whole number of New Shares). Any balance of monies sent by you that is remaining as a result of rounding will be refunded to you except where the amount is less than A$2.00 (or an amount advised by BluGlass).
-
6.3. Eligible Shareholders who receive more than one offer under the SPP (for example, because they hold BluGlass Shares in more than one capacity) may apply on different Application Forms for
==> picture [539 x 48] intentionally omitted <==
10
==> picture [191 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
New Shares but may not apply for New Shares with an aggregate value of more than A$15,000.
-
6.4. BluGlass may accept or reject your application for New Shares, either in whole or in part, at its absolute discretion. For example, BluGlass may reject your application in any of the following circumstances (among others):
-
a. it appears that you are applying to purchase a number of New Shares that will mean that your Aggregate SPP Participation (defined in clause 9.1e) will exceed A$15,000;
-
b. your Application Form is incorrectly completed, incomplete or otherwise determined by BluGlass to be invalid;
-
c. your cheque is dishonoured or the cheque or money order that you enclose with your Application Form is not made out for the amount corresponding to the value of the parcel of New Shares for which you have applied;
-
d. your Application Form and cheque or money order or Bpay payment is received by the Security Registry after 5:00pm on the Closing Date; or
-
e. BluGlass believes you are not an Eligible Shareholder (subject to compliance with any applicable Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) or ASX requirements).
If you are entitled to a refund of all or any of your application monies, the refund will be paid to you, without interest, as soon as is practicable.
6.5. No interest will be paid on any application monies held pending the issue of New Shares or subsequently refunded to the Eligible Shareholder for any reason.
7. Risk
Subscription for New Shares under the SPP is a speculative investment and the market price may change between the date you apply for New Shares and the issue of New Shares to you. Accordingly, the value of New Shares applied for is likely to rise or fall. Importantly, there is a risk that during the period between when you apply for New Shares and when the New Shares are issued to you, the price at which BluGlass Shares are traded on the ASX may be less than the Issue Price payable under this SPP.
This document is not a prospectus or product disclosure statement, and has not been lodged with ASIC. The issue of a prospectus or product disclosure statement is not required for the purposes of the SPP. This document does not contain the types of disclosure required to be contained in a prospectus or product disclosure statement. You must rely on your own knowledge of BluGlass,
==> picture [539 x 48] intentionally omitted <==
11
==> picture [191 x 49] intentionally omitted <==
previous disclosures made by BluGlass to the ASX (including disclosure regarding the risks of making an investment in BluGlass) and, if necessary, consult your professional adviser when deciding whether or not to participate in the SPP.
