Dear Shareholder
The Board of Directors of Cryosite have today announced that they propose to raise additional capital through both non-renouncable 1 for 4 fully underwritten rights issue at \$0.15 per share and a non-underwritten Share Purchase Plan SPP) allowing shareholders to purchase \$1,000 worth of shares at \$0.15 per share (6,667 shares).
As outlined at the last Annual General Meeting the Company is committed to maintaining its prudent approach to capital management and accordingly intends to raise a minimum of \$1,326,562 in the rights issue and a maximum of \$796,000 by the SPP, so as to:
- Ensure that we are able to maintain the ability to participate in large tenders;
- Assist in funding current and proposed capital expenditure, and
- Maintain adequate working capital.
In the last Annual Report we noted that we were well advanced in the negotiation for a number of projects that would a very significant long-term benefit to the company. I am pleased to report that we expect to sign the first of these within the next week. and another within a month. Other negotiations are continuing and we remain confident that they will also have a positive outcome.
Part of the funds raised through this issue will be used on capital expenditure needed to support he projects. The remaining funds will be used to meet the previously stated objectives.
The opportunity to participate in the rights issue is being first offered to shareholders with any shortfall below \$1,326,562 in the rights issue being underwritten by Southern Cross Equities. The SPP provides existing shareholders with an opportunity to purchase up to \$1,000 worth of new shares in the company at a discount to the market price.
Shareholders may subscribe to both the rights issue and the SPP.
The terms and conditions of the rights issue SPP are outlined on the reverse side of the enclosed Application and Payment Form and by making an application to purchase shares under the SPP you will have agreed to be bound by those terms and conditions.
Some of the more important terms and conditions of the SPP are:
- You must be a registered shareholder on 5 May 2004;
- You can apply to purchase \$1,000 of shares;
- The Issue Price is 15 cents;
- Application and payments must be received by 20 May 2004.
Participation in the SPP is entirely at your discretion but the SPP is non-renounceable which means you cannot transfer your right to purchase shares under the SPP to anyone else.
The application period will close at 5.00pm on 20 May 2004. Therefore, if you wish to apply for any shares under the SPP, you should follow the instructions outlined in the attached Application and Payment Form so payment is received at Cryosite by that date.

INVITATION TO APPLY - Eligible shareholders can apply to purchase \$1,000 worth of Cryosite shares at 15 cents per share.
Cryosite reserves the right to reject an application where it believes the application may result in a person receiving more than \$1,000 worth of shares under the SPP, for example, an application from a person who has more than one shareholding (including a shareholding in joint names).
The SPP is non-renounceable.
No brokerage or other transaction costs will apply to any purchases under the SPP.
The application period closes at 5:00pm on Thursday 20 May 2004.

PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS - Payment of application money is to be made by cheque. Detailed instructions are contained on the attached Application and Payment Form.
ALLOCATIONS AND RIGHT TO SCALE-BACK -The allocation of shares will be determined by Cryosite. The allocation of shares to all Eligible Shareholders must not equate to or exceed 15% of the issued capital of Cryosite. Cryosite therefore reserves the right to scale back the allocation of shares to all applicants on a pro rata basis to ensure this threshold is not exceeded. Appropriate refunds will be made in these circumstances.
If a Shareholder's allocation of shares under the SPP includes a remaining fraction, it will be rounded up to the next whole number of shares.
RIGHT TO WITHDRAW OR MODIFY OFFER - The Directors of Cryosite may withdraw or modify the SPP at any time prior to allotment. If the SPP is withdrawn, all application money will be refunded. No interest will be paid on any refunded application money. If the SPP is modified or terminated the Company will advise the Australian Stock Exchange. The omission to give notice of modification or termination or the non receipt of notice shall not invalidate the termination.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION - Cryosite may settle in any manner it deems appropriate, any disputes or anomalies which may arise in connection with or by reason of the operation of the SPP, whether generally or in relation to any applicant or application for the shares.

Cryosite reserves the right to waive compliance with any provision of the SPP terms and conditions.
SUBMITTING PAYMENTS - The Shareholder's payment must be received by the Cryosite NO LATER THAN 5.00pm EST time on Thursday 20 May 2004. Shareholders should allow sufficient time for this to occur.

The postal acceptance rule does not apply to the SPP. A reply paid envelope is enclosed for shareholders in Australia. New Zealand holders will need to affix the appropriate postage.
