3. CHAIRMAN’S LETTER

Dear Shareholders,

On behalf of the directors of BHP Energy Limited ( Company ), I am delighted to offer you the opportunity to participate in the Offer.

The Company is seeking to raise up to $1,186,237 through an issue of up to 1,186,237,417 Shares at a price of $0.001 per Share.

Funds raised from the Offer will be used towards the Company’s existing investments in its oil and gas projects through Advent Energy Limited ( Advent ) and MEC Resources Limited ( MEC ), reviewing possible investments in medical cannabis, and its biotechnology investments through Cortical Dynamics Limited ( Cortical ) as well as the expenses of the Offer and working capital. Shareholders should note that any future investment by the Company in medical cannabis will be reviewed by ASX and the Company may be required to re-comply with chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules and there may be necessary escrow implications for the Shares offered under this entitlement issue.

The Company will continue to offer joint venture and transaction funding proposals to Advent, in particular its proposals involving funding initiatives for each of Advent’s projects in PEP11 and the Bonaparte. The Company will continue to offer funding proposals to MEC Resources Limited (“MEC”) despite ongoing legal actions by MEC.

As set out above, the Company will also evaluate opportunities in the medical cannabis sector which is consistent in nature with its existing investments in biotechnology through Cortical Dynamics Limited (“Cortical”) and Molecular Discovery Systems (“MD Systems”), while also continuing its present activities with Cortical and MD Systems.

You should read this Prospectus carefully and in its entirety before deciding whether or not to participate in the Offer. In particular, you should consider the key risk factors included in Section 8 of this Prospectus. Shareholders who have any queries about the Offer should contact the Company at any time from 8:30am to 5:00pm (WST) during the Offer period.

An Application Form is to be completed in accordance with the instructions provided.

Shareholders who do not take up all or any part of their Entitlements will not receive any payment or value in respect of those Entitlements and their equity interest in the Company will be diluted.

This Prospectus is also being lodged to “cleanse” the recent placements made by the Company. Unfortunately, the recent suspensions in trading of the Shares in the Company on ASX exceeded 5 trading days in the last 12-month period, accordingly the Company is not in a position to lodge a “cleansing notice”, rather it is cleansing those placements via this Prospectus to allow the Shares issued pursuant to those placements to trade on ASX. The Shares of the Company will be re-instated to trading after this Prospectus is lodged.

On behalf of the Board, I invite you to consider this investment opportunity and thank you for your ongoing support of our Company.

Yours sincerely,

David Breeze Chairman

4. IMPORTANT NOTES

This Prospectus is dated 30 October 2018 and was lodged with the ASIC on that date. The ASIC and its officers take no responsibility for the contents of this Prospectus or the merits of the investment to which this Prospectus relates.

No Shares may be issued on the basis of this Prospectus later than 13 months after the date of this Prospectus.

No person is authorised to give information or to make any representation in connection with this Prospectus, which is not contained in the Prospectus. Any information or representation not so contained may not be relied on as having been authorised by the Company in connection with this Prospectus.

It is important that investors read this Prospectus in its entirety and seek professional advice where necessary. The Shares the subject of this Prospectus should be considered highly speculative.

Applications for Shares offered pursuant to this Prospectus can only be submitted on an original Application Form.

This Prospectus is a transaction specific prospectus for an offer of continuously quoted securities (as defined in the Corporations Act) and has been prepared in accordance with section 713 of the Corporations Act. It does not contain the same level of disclosure as an initial public offering prospectus. In making representations in this Prospectus regard has been had to the fact that the Company is a disclosing entity for the purposes of the Corporations Act and certain matters may reasonably be expected to be known to investors and professional advisers whom potential investors may consult.

4.1 Risk factors

Potential investors should be aware that subscribing for Shares in the Company involves a number of risks. The key risk factors of which investors should be aware are set out in Section 8 of this Prospectus. 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 Prospectus.

A summary of some of the Company’s key specific risks include:

Risk	Description	Reference in Prospectus
Going Concern Risk	The Company’s financial report for the year ended 30 June 2018 includes a note to the financial statements on the financial condition of the Company and the existence of a material uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Notwithstanding the ‘going concern’ paragraph included in the financial report, the Directors have stated that they have reviewed their expenditure and commitments and have implemented methods of costs reduction. The directors are	Section 8.2(a)

Risk	Description	Reference in Prospectus
	satisfied that, the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate.
Additional Requirements for Capital	The financial report for the year ended 30 June 2018 also notes that “The consolidated entity is involved in a legal dispute with MEC Resources Ltd. Should the consolidated entity not be successful in raising additional funds through the issue of new equity, should the need arise, or should there be an unfavourable outcome in the legal dispute with MEC Resources Ltd, there is a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt as to whether or not the consolidated entity will be able to continue as a going concern and therefore, whether it will realise its assets and discharge its liabilities as and when they fall due and in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.” 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.	Section 8.2(b)
Potential for significant dilution	Upon implementation of the Offer, assuming all Entitlements are accepted the number of Shares in the Company will increase from 1,186,237,417 currently on issue to 2,372,474,834. This means that each Share will represent a significantly lower proportion of the ownership of the Company. 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	Section 8.2(d)
Development and commercialisati on of technologies	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.	Section 8.3(a)

Risk	Description	Reference in Prospectus
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	Section 8.3(b)
Oil and gas industry risks	The Company has a 24.03% interest in Advent Energy Ltd (Advent). Risks associated with this significant investment include but are not limited to risks associated with failure to discover an economic reserve or successfully produce from a reserve, fluctuations in oil and gas prices, no guarantee of permit renewals or granting of production licences, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s investment.	Section 8.3(c)
Nature of the Company’s existing investments	The Company’s existing investments include its equity investment in Advent with a carrying value of $2 million, a 20% interest in MD Systems with a carrying value of $0.46 million and a 4.47% interest and the right to go up to approximately 13% in Cortical Dynamics Ltd. 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.	Section 8.3(d)

4.2 Directors Interests in Securities

The relevant interest of each of the Directors in the securities of the Company as at the date of this Prospectus, together with their respective Entitlement, is set out in the table below.

Director	Shares	Unlisted Options	Entitlement	$
David Breeze(1)	155,338,972	-	155,338,972	$155,339
Charles Maling	22,268	2,000,000	22,268	$22
Anthony Huston(2)	-	2,000,000	-	-

Note

Includes 71,201,032 Shares held indirectly by Trandcorp Pty Ltd, 70,000,000 Shares held indirectly by Grandbridge Securities Pty Ltd, and 13,556,400 Shares held indirectly by Grandbridge Limited, all entities controlled by Mr David Breeze.
Excludes 20,000,000 Shares to be issued to Mr Huston subject to the approval of Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting to be held on or about 30 November 2018.

The Board recommends all Shareholders take up their Entitlement and advises that all Directors intend to take up their respective Entitlements. Mr Breeze will offset his Entitlement according to the arrangements set out in section 6.3.

4.3 Details of substantial holders

Based on publicly available information as at 30 June 2018, those persons which (together with their associates) have a relevant interest in 5% or more of the Shares on issue are set out below:

Shareholder	Shares	%
David Breeze, Trandcorp Limited, Grandbridge Limited, Grandbridge Securities Pty Ltd	155,338,972	13.10%

In the event all Entitlements are accepted there will be no change to the substantial holders on completion of the Offer.

4.4 Underwriting

The Offer is not underwritten.

4.5 Management Agreement

The Company and Grandbridge Securities Pty Ltd (a wholly owned subsidiary of Grandbridge Limited) (“Grandbridge”) have entered into a management agreement dated on or about 20 November 2017 pursuant to which Grandbridge will provide project management services and preparation and co-ordination of the Offer. The Company will pay Grandbridge a management fee of 1.5% on the total funds raised by Grandbridge. Mr David Breeze is a director of Grandbridge.

4.6 Effect on control of the Company

Grandbridge and Trandcorp Pty Ltd (“Trandcorp”) are, together with David Breeze, a Director, who controls them, substantial shareholders of the Company. At the date of this Prospectus, Grandbridge Limited holds 1.14% in its own right and Trandcorp holds 5.90% in its own right and together with David Breeze’s and Grandbridge’s relevant interest, the total voting power of Grandbridge Limited, Grandbridge, Trandcorp and David Breeze (“Mr Breeze and Associates”) in the Company is 13.10%. Mr Breeze has a voting power of 32% in Grandbridge Limited and 100% in Trandcorp.

Mr Breeze and Associates will only take up their Entitlements under the Offer provided that by taking up that Entitlement, their combined interest is not greater than 20%. Their present relevant interest and changes under several scenarios are set out in the table below.

Event	Shares held by Mr Breeze and Associates	Voting power of Mr Breeze and Associates
Date of Prospectus	155,338,972	13.10%
• 100%subscribed	310,677,974	13.10%
• 75% subscribed	310,677,974	14.97%
• 50% subscribed	310,677,974	17.46%
• 13.10% subscribed (being Mr Breeze and Associates’)	310,677,974	23.16%

It is unlikely that no shareholders, other than Mr Breeze and Associates, take up their Entitlements under the Offer. The Entitlements taken up and therefore the voting power of Mr Breeze and Associates will be reduced by a corresponding amount for the amount of Entitlements under the Offer taken up by the other shareholders.

Shareholders should note that if they do not participate in the Offer, their holdings are likely to be diluted by approximately 50% (as compared to their holdings and number of Shares on issue as at the date of the Prospectus). Examples of how the dilution may impact Shareholders is set out in the table below:

Holder	Holding as at Record date	% at Record Date	Entitlements under the Offer	Holdings if Offer not taken Up	% post Offer
Shareholder 1	50,000,000	4.22% 2.11% 1.26% 0.84% 0.42%	50,000,000	50,000,000	2.11% 1.05% 0.63% 0.42% 0.21%
Shareholder 2	25,000,000		25,000,000	25,000,000
Shareholder 3	15,000,000		15,000,000	15,000,000
Shareholder 4	10,000,000		10,000,000	10,000,000
Shareholder 5	5,000,000		5,000,000	5,000,000
Total holdings on issue	1,186,237,417		1,186,237,417	2,372,474,834

Notes:

The dilutionary effect shown in the table is the maximum percentage on the assumption that those Entitlements not accepted are placed under the Shortfall Offer. In the event all Entitlements are not accepted and some or all of the resulting Shortfall was not subsequently placed, the dilution effect for each Shareholder not accepting their Entitlement would be a lesser percentage.

4.7 Market price of shares

The Company is a disclosing entity for the purposes of the Corporations Act and its Shares are enhanced disclosure securities quoted on ASX.

The highest, lowest and last market sale prices of the Shares on ASX during the three months immediately preceding the date of lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC and the respective dates of those sales were:

	Price	Date

Lowest	$0.002	24 July – 10 September 2018
Last	$0.002	19 October 2018 (pre-suspension)

The Directors reserve the right to issue Shortfall Shares at their absolute discretion. There is no guarantee that Eligible Shareholders will receive Shares applied for under the Shortfall Offer.

The fact that ASX may grant Official Quotation to the Shares is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the merits of the Company or the Shares now offered for subscription.

5.9 Issue of Shares

Shares issued pursuant to the Offer will be issued in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules and timetable set out at the commencement of this Prospectus.

Shares issued pursuant to the Shortfall Offer will be issued on a progressive basis.

Pending the issue of the Shares or payment of refunds pursuant to this Prospectus, all application monies will be held by the Company in trust for the Applicants in a separate bank account as required by the Corporations Act. The Company, however, will be entitled to retain all interest that accrues on the bank account and each Applicant waives the right to claim interest.

7. RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES ATTACHING TO SHARES

The following is a summary of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to Shares being offered pursuant to this Prospectus. This summary is not exhaustive and does not constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. To obtain such a statement, persons should seek independent legal advice.

Full details of the rights and liabilities attaching to Shares are set out in the Constitution, a copy of which is available for inspection at the Company’s registered office during normal business hours.

(a) General meetings

Shareholders are entitled to be present in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative to attend and vote at general meetings of the Company.

Shareholders may requisition meetings in accordance with Section 249D of the Corporations Act and the Constitution of the Company.

(b) Voting rights

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares, at general meetings of shareholders or classes of shareholders:

(i) each shareholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy, attorney or representative;
(ii) on a show of hands, every person present who is a shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a shareholder has one vote; and
(iii) on a poll, every person present who is a shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a shareholder shall, in respect of each fully paid share held by him, or in respect of which he is appointed a proxy, attorney or representative, have one vote for the share, but in respect of partly paid shares shall have such number of votes as bears the same proportion to the total of such shares registered in the shareholder’s name as the amount paid (not credited) bears to the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited).

(c) Dividend rights

Subject to the rights of persons (if any) entitled to shares with special rights to dividend the Directors may declare a final dividend out of profits in accordance with the Corporations Act and may authorise the payment or crediting by the Company to the shareholders of such a dividend. The Directors may authorise the payment or crediting by the Company to the shareholders of such interim dividends as appear to the Directors to be justified by the profits of the Company. Subject to the rights of persons (if any) entitled to shares with special rights as to dividend all dividends are to be declared and paid according to the amounts paid or credited as paid on the shares in respect of which the dividend is paid. Interest may not be paid by the Company in respect of any dividend, whether final or interim.

(d) Winding-up

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution of the Company, divide among the shareholders in kind the whole or any part of the property of the Company, and may for that purpose set such value as he considers fair upon any property to be so divided, and may determine how the division is to be carried out as between the shareholders or different classes of shareholders. The liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution of the Company, vest the whole or any part of any such property in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as the liquidator thinks fit, but so that no shareholder is compelled to accept any shares or other securities in respect of which there is any liability. Where an order is made for the winding up of the Company or it is resolved by special resolution to wind up the Company, then on a distribution of assets to members, shares classified by ASX as restricted securities at the time of the commencement of the winding up shall rank in priority after all other shares.

(e) Transfer of Shares

Generally, Shares in the Company are freely transferable, subject to formal requirements, the registration of the transfer not resulting in a contravention of or failure to observe the provisions of a law of Australia and the transfer not being in breach of the Corporations Act or the Listing Rules.

(f) Variation of rights

Pursuant to Section 246B of the Corporations Act, the Company may, with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a meeting of shareholders vary or abrogate the rights attaching to Shares.

If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class), whether or not the Company is being wound up may be varied or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders of three-quarters of the issued shares of that class, or if authorised by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.

8. RISK FACTORS

8.1 Introduction

The Shares offered under this Prospectus are considered highly speculative. An investment in the Company is not risk free and the Directors strongly recommend potential investors to consider the risk factors described below, together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus and to consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Shares pursuant to this Prospectus.

There are specific risks which relate directly to the Company’s business. In addition, there are other general risks, many of which are largely beyond the control of the Company and the Directors. The risks identified in this section, or other risk factors, may have a material impact on the financial performance of the Company and the market price of the Shares.

The following is not intended to be an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed.

8.2 Company specific

(a) Going Concern Risk

The Company’s full year financial report for the year ended 30 June 2018 includes a note to the financial statements on the financial condition of the Company and the existence of a material uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The report notes that:

“The consolidated entity has reported a net loss after tax for the year ended 30 June 2018 of $1,506,758 (2017: loss of $2,544,301) and has a net cash outflow from operating activities of $488,222 (2017: outflow of $517,680. The consolidated entity has a working capital deficit of $1,101,201 as at 30 June 2018 (30 June 2017: deficit of $1,084,626). Included in other payables are amounts payable to the directors of the company of $765,027 (June 2017: $760,176).”

Notwithstanding the ‘going concern’ paragraph included in the financial report, the Directors also stated that:

“The directors have reviewed their expenditure and commitments for the consolidated entity and have implemented methods of costs reduction. The directors as a part of their cash monitoring, have voluntarily suspended cash payments for their directors’ fees to conserve cash resources. The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts, including potential capital raisings, which indicate that the consolidated entity should have sufficient cash flows for a period of at least 12 months from the date of this report. Based on the cash flow forecasts including directors voluntarily suspending cash payments for their director fees the directors are satisfied that, the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate.”

(b) Additional requirements for capital

The full year financial report for the year ended 30 June 2018 also notes that:

“The consolidated entity is involved in a legal dispute with MEC Resources Ltd. Should the consolidated entity not be successful in raising additional funds through the issue of new equity, should the need arise, or should

there be an unfavourable outcome in the legal dispute with MEC Resources Ltd, there is a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt as to whether or not the consolidated entity will be able to continue as a going concern and therefore, whether it will realise its assets and discharge its liabilities as and when they fall due and in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.”

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. 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.

As detailed in section 9.1 and as previously announced the summary judgement application decision in the matter of a claim by MEC for $270,000 plus interest and costs was handed down on 23 February 2018. The application by MEC for summary judgement was heard in December 2017 in the District Court of Western Australia. The MEC application was dismissed by the court. BPH disputes the basis of the claim by MEC and its interest claims, and BPH asserts that there has not been an Event of Default and that the loan is not due and owing. The Company has a claim against MEC of $388,050 plus interest and costs and will continue to pursue this matter.

(c) ASX Re-compliance

Shareholders should note that any future investment by the Company in medical cannabis will be reviewed by ASX and the Company may be required to re-comply with chapters 1 and 2 of the ASX Listing Rules and there may be necessary escrow implications for the Shares offered under this entitlement issue.

(d) Potential for significant dilution

Upon implementation of the Offer, assuming all Entitlements are accepted the number of Shares in the Company will increase from 1,186,237,417 currently on issue to 2,372,474,834. This means that each Share will represent a significantly lower proportion of the ownership of the Company.

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.

Trading in the Company’s Shares is currently suspended on ASX and the last trading price of Shares on ASX being 19 October 2018, prior to the prospectus being lodged of $0.0025 is not a reliable indicator as to the potential trading price of Shares after implementation of the Offer. The trading is expected to be re-instated after this Prospectus is lodged.

8.3 Industry Specific

(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

(c) Oil & gas industry risks

Significant investment: the Company has a 24.03% interest in Advent Energy Ltd ( 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 where given are estimates and no assurance can be given that the anticipated figures will be achieved or that the indicated level of 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 will not be sufficient to fund operations. 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.

(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) 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.
(xvi) 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.

(d) Nature of BPH’s existing investments

The Company’s existing investments include an equity investment in Advent with a carrying value of $2 million, a 20% interest in MD Systems with a carrying value of $0.46 million and a 4.47% interest in Cortical. The Company may increase its holding in Cortical to approximately 13% by conversion of $1.5 million 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 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.

(e)

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.

(f) 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.

8.4 General risks

(a) 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.

(b) 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.

(c) 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.

(d) 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.

(e) 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.

(f) Insurance

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

(g) 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.

8.5 Speculative investment

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 Shares offered under this Prospectus

Therefore, the Shares to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those Shares.

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

9.2 Continuous disclosure obligations

The Company is a “disclosing entity” (as defined in section 111AC of the Corporations Act) for the purposes of section 713 of the Corporations Act and, as such, is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company is required to continuously disclose any information it has to the market which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Company’s securities.

This Prospectus is a “transaction specific prospectus”. In general terms a “transaction specific prospectus” is only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of securities on a company and the rights attaching to the securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses or prospects of the issuing company.

This Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Investors should therefore have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest.

Having taken such precautions and having made such enquires as are reasonable, the Company believes that it has complied with the general and specific requirements of ASX as applicable from time to time throughout the 3 months before the issue of this Prospectus which required the Company to notify ASX of information about specified events or matters as they arise for the purpose of ASX making that information available to the stock market conducted by ASX.

Information that is already in the public domain has not been reported in this Prospectus other than that which is considered necessary to make this Prospectus complete.

The Company, as a disclosing entity under the Corporations Act states that:

(a) it is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations;
(b) copies of documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company (not being documents referred to in section 1274(2)(a) of the Corporations Act) may be obtained from, or inspected at, the offices of the ASIC; and
(c) it will provide a copy of each of the following documents, free of charge, to any person on request between the date of issue of this Prospectus and the Closing Date:
(i) the annual financial report most recently lodged by the Company with the ASIC;
(ii) any half-year financial report lodged by the Company with the ASIC after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC; and
(iii) any continuous disclosure documents given by the Company to ASX in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules as referred to in section 674(1) of the Corporations Act after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC.

Copies of all documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company can be inspected at the registered office of the Company during normal office hours.

Security holdings

The relevant interest of each of the Directors in the securities of the Company as at the date of this Prospectus, together with their respective Entitlement, is set out in Section 4.2 of this Prospectus.

Remuneration

The remuneration of an executive Director is decided by the Board, without the affected executive Director participating in that decision-making process. The total maximum remuneration of non-executive Directors is initially set by the Constitution and subsequent variation is by ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting in accordance with the Constitution, the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, as applicable. The determination of non-executive Directors’ remuneration within that maximum will be made by the Board having regard to the inputs and value to the Company of the respective contributions by each nonexecutive Director.

A Director may be paid fees or other amounts (ie non-cash performance incentives such as Options, subject to any necessary Shareholder approval) as the other Directors determine where a Director performs special duties or otherwise performs services outside the scope of the ordinary duties of a Director. In addition, Directors are also entitled to be paid reasonable travelling, hotel and other expenses incurred by them respectively in or about the performance of their duties as Directors.

The following table shows the total (and proposed) annual remuneration paid to both executive and non-executive directors.

Director	20181	20171	Proposed 20192
David Breeze	$148,000	$148,000	$148,000
Charles Maling	$18,354	Nil	$25,000
Anthony Huston	$25,717	$411	$45,000

Note :

The figures for the 2017 and 2018 financial years have been extracted from the 2018 Annual Report and include salary, fees and share based payments
Mr Huston’s proposed 2019 remuneration includes 20,000,000 Shares subject to approval of shareholders at the Company’s Annual General Meeting to be held on or about 30 November 2018. The Shares have been valued at the current Share price of $0.002.

Chapter 6D of the Corporations Act imposes a liability regime on the Company (as the offeror of the Securities), the Directors, the persons named in the Prospectus with their consent as Proposed Directors, any underwriters, persons named in the Prospectus with their consent having made a statement in the Prospectus and persons involved in a contravention in relation to the Prospectus, with regard to misleading and deceptive statements made in the Prospectus, Although the Company bears primary responsibility for the Prospectus, the other parties involved in the preparation of the Prospectus can also be responsible for certain statements made in it.

9.7 Electronic prospectus

If you have received this Prospectus as an electronic Prospectus, please ensure that you have received the entire Prospectus accompanied by the Application Form. If you have not, please phone the Company on +61 8 9328 8366 and the Company will send you, for free, either a hard copy or a further electronic copy of the Prospectus, or both. Alternatively, you may obtain a copy of this Prospectus from the Company’s website at www.bphenergy.com.au.

The Company reserves the right not to accept an Application Form from a person if it has reason to believe that when that person was given access to the electronic Application Form, it was not provided together with the electronic Prospectus and any relevant supplementary or replacement prospectus or any of those documents were incomplete or altered.

9.8 Financial forecasts

The Directors have considered the matters set out in ASIC Regulatory Guide 170 and believe that they do not have a reasonable basis to forecast future earnings on the basis that the operations of the Company are inherently uncertain. Accordingly, any forecast or projection information would contain such a broad range of potential outcomes and possibilities that it is not possible to prepare a reliable best estimate forecast or projection.

9.9 Clearing House Electronic Sub-Register System (CHESS) and Issuer Sponsorship

The Company will not be issuing share certificates. The Company is a participant in CHESS, for those investors who have, or wish to have, a sponsoring stockbroker. Investors who do not wish to participate through CHESS will be issuer sponsored by the Company. Because the sub-registers are electronic, ownership of securities can be transferred without having to rely upon paper documentation.

Electronic registers mean that the Company will not be issuing certificates to investors. Instead, investors will be provided with a statement (similar to a bank account statement) that sets out the number of Shares issued to them under this Prospectus. The notice will also advise holders of their Holder Identification Number or Security Holder Reference Number and explain, for future reference, the sale and purchase procedures under CHESS and issuer sponsorship.

Further monthly statements will be provided to holders if there have been any changes in their security holding in the Company during the preceding month.

9.10 Privacy Act

If you complete an application for Shares, you will be providing personal information to the Company (directly or by the Company’s share registry). The Company collects, holds and will use that information to assess your application, service your needs as a holder of equity securities in the Company, facilitate distribution payments and corporate communications to you as a Shareholder and carry out administration.

The information may also be used from time to time and disclosed to persons inspecting the register, bidders for your securities in the context of takeovers, regulatory bodies, including the Australian Taxation Office, authorised securities brokers, print service providers, mail houses and the Company’s share registry.

You can access, correct and update the personal information that we hold about you. Please contact the Company or its share registry if you wish to do so at the relevant contact numbers set out in this Prospectus.

Collection, maintenance and disclosure of certain personal information is governed by legislation including the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (as amended), the Corporations Act and certain rules such as the ASX Settlement Operating Rules. You should note that if you do not provide the information required on the application for Shares, the Company may not be able to accept or process your application.
