PRO- RATA ENTITLEMENT OFFER

Cyclopharm Limited ( Company ) recently announced a capital raising comprising a fully underwritten 1 for 4 renounceable pro-rata entitlement offer ( Rights Issue ) to raise up to approximately A$2.1 million before costs.

The net proceeds of the capital raising will go towards funding the operating costs of Cyclopet, support the legal proceedings Cyclopet has commenced against the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation and to fund the commencement of the Technegas clinical trial in the United States. While the market for products manufactured by Cyclopet has been encouraging in 2012, competition from government owned enterprises requires additional capital to support this venture.

The United States Food and Drug Administration ( FDA ) clinical trial has commenced with the first installation in October this year. The FDA clinical trial costs are estimated to cost approximately US$4.0 million in total with expenditure of US$0.8 million expected within the next 12 months. The balance of the FDA clinical trial costs is expected to be funded through a subsequent capital raising next year.

Details of the Rights Issue

Under the Rights Issue the Company will issue up to 11,625,683 shares at A$0.18 per share.

Eligible Shareholders may also apply for new shares in excess of their entitlement, although any application for additional new shares may be scaled back at the Company's discretion.

Underwriting

The Rights Issue is fully underwritten by CVC Managers Pty Limited ( Underwriter ).

Entitlement trading

The Rights Issue is renounceable, which means that entitlements can be sold or otherwise transferred.

To sell your entitlements in part or in full please contact your broker. If you do not have a broker, and hold your shares on the Issuer Sponsored Subregister, you may sell your entitlements by completing a standard renunciation and transfer form together with the transferee, and forwarding that completed form, together with the completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form and payment for any rights that the transferee wishes to take up, to the Company's share registry so that they are received by no later than 5.00pm Sydney time Friday 7 December 2012.

Eligible Shareholders

The Rights Issue will be offered to all holders of shares with a registered address in Australia and New Zealand at 7.00pm (Sydney time) on 19 November 2012 ( Record Date ) ( Eligible Shareholders ).

The Company has determined that it is unreasonable to make offers to Shareholders other than Eligible Shareholders having regard to the number of Shareholders outside of Australia and New Zealand, the number and value of the shares that would be offered and the cost of complying with legal and regulatory requirements outside of those countries. Accordingly, Shareholders with a registered address in countries other than Australia and New Zealand will not be eligible to participate in the Rights Issue.
