However, it is unlikely that no shareholders will take up entitlements under the Offer. The underwriting obligation and therefore voting

power of the Underwriters will change by a corresponding amount for the amount of entitlements under the Offer taken up by the other shareholders.

12

5. RISK FACTORS

5.1 Introduction

The Shares offered under this Offer Document should be considered speculative because of the nature of the Company’s business.

There are numerous risk factors involved with the Company’s business. Some of these risks can be mitigated by the use of safeguards and appropriate systems and controls, but some are outside the control of the Company and cannot be mitigated. Accordingly, an investment in the Company carries no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, return of capital or price at which securities will trade.

The following is a summary of the more material matters to be considered. However, this summary is not exhaustive and potential investors should examine the contents of this Offer Document in its entirety and consult their professional advisors before deciding whether to apply for the New Shares.

5.2 Key investment risks

Potential investors should be aware that subscribing for Shares in the Company involves a number of risks. Prospective investors should read this Offer Document in its entirety before deciding whether to apply for Shares under this Offer Document.

These risks together with other general risks applicable to all investments in listed securities not specifically referred to, may affect the value of the Shares in the future. Accordingly, an investment in the Company should be considered highly speculative. Investors should consider consulting their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Shares pursuant to this Offer Document.

5.3 Company specific Risks

Dilution risk

Upon completion of the Offer, assuming the Offer is fully subscribed and no Options exercised, the number of Shares in the Company will increase from 361,600,549 Shares currently on issue to 723,201,098 Shares. This means that each Share will represent a lower proportion of the ownership of the Company.

If these Options currently on issue convert into Shares there will be a dilution of the Company’s existing Shareholders. However, upon exercise, the Company will receive additional funds depending on the number of Options exercised and the exercise price of the Options.

It is not possible to predict what the value of the Company or a Share will be following the completion of the Offer being implemented and the Directors do not make any representation as to such matters.

The last trading price of Shares on ASX prior to the prospectus being lodged of $0.004 is not a reliable indicator as to the potential trading price of Shares after implementation of the Offer.

1939-01/1638577_1

5.4 Industry specific risks

(a) Development and commercialisation of technologies

Securing rights to Technologies, and in particular patents, is an integral part of securing potential product value in the outcomes of biotechnology research and development. Competition in retaining and sustaining protection of Technologies and the complex nature of Technologies can lead to expensive and lengthy patents disputes for which there can be no guaranteed outcome.

The granting of a patent does not guarantee that the rights of others are not infringed or that competitors will not develop competing Technologies that circumvents such patents. The Company’s success depends, in part, on its ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing the proprietary rights of third parties. Because the patent position of biotechnology companies can be highly uncertain and frequently involve complex legal and scientific evaluation, neither the breadth of claims allowed in biotechnology patents nor their enforceability can be predicted. There can be no assurance that any patents the Company or Universities may own or control or licence now and in the future will afford the Company commercially significant protection of the Technologies, or that any of the projects that may arise from the Technologies will have commercial applications.

Although the Company is not aware of any third party interests in relation to the Technologies rights of the Technologies, and has taken steps to protect and confirm its interest in these rights, there is always a risk of third parties claiming involvement in technological and medical discoveries, and if any disputes arise, they could adversely affect the Company.

Although the Company will implement all reasonable endeavours to protect its Technologies, there can be no assurance that these measures have been, or will be sufficient.

(b) Research and development

The Company can make no representation that any of its research into or development of the Technologies will be successful, that the development milestones will be achieved, or that the Technologies will be developed into products that are commercially exploitable.

There are many risks inherent in the development of biotechnology products, particularly where the products are in the early stages of development. Projects can be delayed or fail to demonstrate any benefit, or research may cease to be viable for a range of scientific and commercial reasons

17

1939-01/1638577_1

(c) Oil & gas industry risks

Significant investment: the Company has a 27% interest in Advent Energy ( Advent ). Risks associated with this significant investment include:

  • (i) Illiquid investment : as Advent is an unlisted entity, there is a risk that there will not be a ready market for the Company to sell its Advent Energy shares.

  • (ii) No controlling interest : the Company’s current interest in Advent means the Company does not have a controlling interest and accordingly the Company does not have the capacity to determine the outcome of decisions about Advent Energy’s financial and operating policies.

  • (iii) Oil and gas exploration: the business of oil and gas exploration, project development and production, by its nature, contains elements of significant risk with no guarantee of success. A failure to discover an economic reserve, or to successfully produce from such a reserve, will adversely affect Advent Energy’s performance and have a resulting effect on the value of the Company’s investment in Advent Energy.

  • (iv) Oil and gas price volatility : fluctuations in oil and gas prices and, in particular, a material decline in the price of oil or gas, may have a material adverse effect on Advent’s business and therefore the value of the Company’s investment in Advent Energy.

  • (v) Exploration and production licences: Advent’s operations are dependent upon the grant of appropriate licences, concessions, leases, permits and regulatory consents, which may be withdrawn or made subject to limitations. There is no guarantee that, upon completion of any exploration, a production licence will be granted with respect to exploration territory. There can also be no assurance that any exploration permit will be renewed or if so, on what terms.

These licences place a range of past, current and future obligations on Advent. In some cases, there could be adverse consequences for breach of these obligations, ranging from penalties to, in extreme cases, suspension or termination of the relevant licence or related contract. These may then affect the Company’s investment in Advent Energy.

  • (vi) Expansion targets and operational delays: There can be no assurance that Advent will be able to complete any development of its properties on time or to budget, or that the current personnel, systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support Advent’s operations. Any failure of management to identify problems at an early stage could have an adverse impact on Advent’s financial performance.

  • (vii) Resources, reserves and production: The figures for oil & gas reserves and resources presented in this Prospectus are estimates and no assurance can be given that the anticipated tonnages will be achieved or that the indicated level of

18

1939-01/1638577_1

recovery will be realised. Market fluctuations in the price of oil & gas may render oil & gas reserves and resources uneconomical. Moreover, short-term operating factors relating to oil & gas reserves and resources, such as the need for orderly development of an oil & gas reservoir may cause an oil & gas operation to be unprofitable in any particular accounting period.

  • (viii) Limited operating history: Advent may not have assets producing positive cash flow and its ultimate success may depend on its ability to generate cash flow from active oil & gas operations in the future and its ability to access equity markets for its development requirements. Advent has not made profits to date and there is no assurance that it will do so in the future. A portion of Advent’s activities will be directed to the search for and the development of new oil & gas deposits. Significant capital investment will be required to achieve commercial production from Advent’s existing projects and from successful exploration efforts. There is no assurance that Advent will be able to raise the required funds to continue these activities.

  • (ix) Additional financing: Advent is required to fund its share of approved exploration expenditure on certain of the properties on which it has exploration rights, failing which Advent’s exploration rights in the relevant property may be either reduced or forfeited. Advent may acquire exploration rights in other exploration properties which may require acquisition payments to be made and exploration expenditures to be incurred. The only sources of funding currently available to Advent are through the issue of additional equity capital, project finance or borrowing. There is no assurance that Advent will be successful in raising sufficient funds to commence drilling or production operations or to meet its obligations with respect to the exploration properties in which it has or may acquire exploration rights. The Directors currently believe that Advent’s working capital (assuming full subscription) will not be sufficient to fund operations through. Advent Energy will therefore have to seek additional financing for operations at a later date.

  • (x) Regulatory approvals: Advent’s operations and the exploration agreements which it has entered into require approvals, licences and permits from various regulatory authorities, governmental and otherwise (including project specific governmental decrees). Such approvals, licences and permits are subject to change in various circumstances and further project specific governmental decrees and/or legislative enactments may be required. There can be no guarantee that Advent will be able to obtain or maintain all necessary approvals, licences and permits that may be required and/or that all project specific governmental decrees and/or required legislative enactments will be forthcoming to explore for oil & gas and develop the properties on which it has exploration rights, commence construction or operation of production facilities or to maintain continued operations that economically justify the costs involved.

19

1939-01/1638577_1

  • (xi) Environmental factors: Advent’s operations are subject to environmental regulation (including regular environmental impact assessments and the requirement to obtain and maintain certain permits) in all the jurisdictions in which it operates. Such regulation covers a wide variety of matters, including, without limitation, prevention of waste, pollution and protection of the environment, labour regulations and health and safety. Advent may also be subject under such regulations to clean-up costs and liability for toxic or hazardous substances which may exist on or under any of its properties or which may be produced as a result of its operations. Environmental legislation and permitting requirements are likely to evolve in a manner which will require stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their directors and employees.

  • (xii) Competition: The oil & gas exploration and production business is competitive in all of its phases. Advent competes with numerous other companies and individuals, including competitors with greater financial, technical and other resources than itself, in the search for and acquisition of exploration and development rights on attractive oil & gas properties. Advent’s ability to acquire exploration and development rights on properties in the future will depend not only on its ability to develop the properties on which it currently has exploration and development rights, but also on its ability to select and acquire exploration and development rights on suitable properties for exploration and development. There is no assurance that Advent will continue to be able to compete successfully with its competitors in acquiring exploration and development rights on such properties.

  • (xiii) Currency risk: Currency fluctuations may affect the cash flow that Advent hopes to realise from its operations, as oil & gas is sold and traded on the world markets in United States dollars. Advent’s costs are incurred primarily in Australian dollars and United States dollars.

  • (xiv) Uninsured risks: Advent Energy, as a participant in exploration and mining programmes, may become subject to liability for hazards that cannot be insured against or against which it may elect not to be so insured because of high premium costs. Advent Energy may incur a liability to third parties (in excess of any insurance cover) arising from pollution or other damage or injury.

  • (xv) Areas of investment risk: It is the intention of Advent Energy’s Directors to seek a listing of Advent Energy’s shares on an international financial exchange as appropriate, however there is no guarantee that this will occur. The share prices of publicly quoted companies can be volatile. The price of shares is dependent upon a number of factors some of which are general or market or sector specific and others that are specific to Advent Energy.

20

1939-01/1638577_1

Although Advent Energy’s shares are intended to be traded on a securities exchange, this should not be taken as implying that Advent will be successful in being admitted to the Official List of the ASX or another exchange, or that there will always be a liquid market in its securities. In addition, the market for shares in smaller public companies is less liquid than for larger public companies. Therefore, an investment in Advent Energy’s shares may be difficult to realise and the share price may be subject to greater fluctuations than might otherwise be the case. An investment in shares quoted on a particular exchange may carry a higher risk than an investment in shares quoted on other securities exchanges. Any exchange’s future success and liquidity in the market for Advent Energy’s shares cannot be guaranteed. The value of Advent Energy’s shares may be volatile and may go down as well as up and the Company may therefore not recover their original investment.

The market price of Advent Energy’s shares may not reflect the underlying value of Advent Energy's net assets. The price at which the Company may dispose of its Advent shares may be influenced by a number of factors, some of which may pertain to Advent Energy and others of which are extraneous. On any disposal of its Advent shares, the Company may realise less than the original amount invested.

  • (xvi) Market perception : Market perception of small oil & gas exploration companies may change and this could impact on the value of the Company’s holdings and impact on Advent’s ability to raise further equity capital.

  • (d) Unitisation: In the case of any cross-border discovery or cross permit discovery involving another permit holder, the Company will be required to share production in accordance with the requirements of the relevant regulatory authorities of Western Australia, and/or the Northern Territory, and/or South Australia, and/or New South Wales, or of any relevant unitisation agreements agreed to between the parties, as the case may be.

(e) Nature of BPH’s existing investments

The Company’s existing investments include a $14.3 million equity investment in Advent Energy Ltd, a 20% interest in MDSystems and a 3.89% interest in Cortical Dynamics Ltd. BPH can increase its holding in Cortical to 15% by conversion of $1.5m of debt. The Company can make no representations that any of these projects will be successful, that the Company’s development milestones will be achieved or that it will develop products that are commercially exploitable. Further, the Company’s success depends, in part, on its ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing the proprietary rights of third parties. Because the patent positions of biotechnology companies can be highly uncertain and frequently involve complex legal and scientific evaluation, neither the breadth of claims allowed in medical device patents, nor their enforceability, can be predicted. There can be no assurance that any patents the Company may own or control or license now and in the future will afford the Company commercially significant protection of its intellectual property or its projects or have commercial application. While the Company is not aware of any third party interests in its

21

1939-01/1638577_1

intellectual property rights and has taken steps to protect and confirm its interest in these rights, there is always a risk of third parties claiming involvement in technological and medical discoveries and if any such disputes arise, they could adversely affect the Company.

(f) Regulatory risk

The introduction of new legislation or amendments to existing legislation by governments, developments in existing common law, or the respective interpretation of the legal requirements in any of the legal jurisdictions which govern the Company’s operations or contractual obligations, could impact adversely on the assets, operations and, ultimately, the Company’s financial performance and its Securities. In addition, there is a commercial risk that legal action may be taken against the Company in relation to commercial matters.

(g) Potential acquisitions

As part of its business strategy, the Company may make acquisitions of or significant investments in complementary companies, products or technologies. Any such future transactions would be accompanied by the risks commonly encountered in making acquisitions of companies, products and technologies.

5.5 General Risks

(a) Additional requirements for capital

The funds raised under the Offer are considered sufficient to meet the current proposed objectives of the Company. Additional funding may be required in the event future costs exceed the Company’s estimates and to effectively implement its business and operations plans in the future, to take advantage of opportunities for acquisitions, joint ventures or other business opportunities, and to meet any unanticipated liabilities or expenses which the Company may incur.

The Company may seek to raise further funds through equity or debt financing, joint ventures or other means. Failure to obtain sufficient financing for the Company’s activities and future projects may result in delay and indefinite postponement of its research and development programmes. There can be no assurance that additional finance will be available when needed or, if available, the terms of the financing might not be favourable to the Company and might involve substantial dilution to Shareholders.

(b) General economic conditions

Economic conditions, both domestic and global, may affect the performance of the Company. Factors such as fluctuations in currencies, commodity prices, inflation, interest rates, supply and demand and industrial disruption may have an impact on operating costs and share market prices. The Company's future possible revenues and Share price can be affected by these factors, all of which are beyond the control of the Company or its Directors.

22

1939-01/1638577_1

(c) Equity market conditions

Securities listed on the stock market can experience extreme price and volume fluctuations that are often unrelated to the operating performances of such companies. The market price of Shares may fall as well as rise and may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general.

General factors that may affect the market price of Shares include economic conditions in both Australia and internationally (particularly Australian, US and Chinese economic conditions), investor sentiment, local and international share market conditions, changes in interest rates and the rate of inflation, variations in commodity prices, the global security situation and the possibility of terrorist disturbances, changes to government regulation, policy or legislation, changes which may occur to the taxation of companies as a result of changes in Australian and foreign taxation laws, changes to the system of dividend imputation in Australia, and changes in exchange rates.

(d) Change in government policy and legislation

Any material adverse changes in relevant government policies or legislation of Australia may affect the viability and profitability of the Company, and consequent returns to investors. The activities of the Company are subject to various federal, state and local laws governing prospecting, development, production, taxes, labour standards and occupational health and safety, and other matters.

(e) Reliance on key management and personnel

The Company is dependent on its management, the loss of whose services could materially and adversely affect the Company and impede the achievements of its research and development objectives. Because of the specialised nature of the Company’s business, its ability to commercialise its products and maintain its research programme will depend in part upon its ability to attract and retain suitably qualified management, scientists and research people over time. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to attract or retain sufficiently qualified personnel on a timely basis, retain its key scientific and management personnel, or maintain its relationship with key scientific organisations.

(f) Market conditions

The market price of the Company’s Securities can fall as well as rise and may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in biomedical development stocks in particular.

Accordingly, investors should recognise that the price of the Securities may fall as well as rise. In particular, the trading price of Shares at any given time may be higher or lower than the price paid under the Offer. Neither the Company nor the Directors warrant the future performance of the Company or any return on the Company’s Securities.

(g) Insurance

The Company will have insurance in place considered appropriate for the Company’s needs. The Company will not be insured against all

23

1939-01/1638577_1

possible losses, either because of the unavailability of cover or because the Directors believe the premiums are excessive relative to the benefits that would accrue. The Directors believe that the insurance the Company has in place is appropriate. The Directors will continue to review the insurance cover in place to ensure that it is adequate.

(h) Unforeseen expenditure risk

Expenditure may need to be incurred that has not been taken into account in the preparation of this Prospectus. Although the Company is not aware of any such additional expenditure requirements, if such expenditure is subsequently incurred, this may adversely affect the expenditure proposals of the Company.

5.6 Investment Speculative

The above list of risk factors ought not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The above factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the securities offered under this Offer Document. Therefore, the securities to be issued pursuant to this Offer Document carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those securities.

Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for securities pursuant to this Offer Document.
