Dear Shareholder
IXUP Limited (ASX: IXU) Notification to Eligible Shareholders of the Entitlement Offer
On 31 October 2019, IXUP Limited ACN 612 182 368 ( ASX: IXU ) ( Company ) announced a 2 for 5 (2 new fully paid ordinary shares ( Shares ) for every 5 existing Shares) fully underwritten non-renounceable pro rata entitlement offer pursuant to which the Company will raise up to approximately A$3,168,875 (before costs and expenses) ( Entitlement Offer ).
The Entitlement Offer is being made without a prospectus in accordance with section 708AA of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (as modified by ASIC Corporations (Non-Traditional Rights Issues) Instrument 2016/84 ).
Under the terms of the Entitlement Offer, only shareholders of the Company with a registered address in Australia or New Zealand on or before 7.00 pm (AEDT) on Thursday, 7 November 2019 ( Record Date ) will be invited to participate in the Entitlement Offer ( Eligible Shareholders ). Eligible Shareholders will be invited to subscribe for two (2) new Shares in the Company for every five (5) Shares held by the shareholder at an issue price of A$0.05 (5 cents) per Share ( Entitlement ), representing a 25.4% discount to the closing price on the 28th October 2019.
The Company will lodge an offer booklet for the Entitlement Offer ( Offer Booklet ) with ASX on or before 8 November 2019. It is anticipated that the Offer Booklet and the accompanying personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form will be mailed to Eligible Shareholders on or before 8 November 2019. The Offer Booklet may be viewed on the ASX’s website at www.asx.com.au (by searching for the Company’s ASX ticker code, IXU).
Further details of the Entitlement Offer
The Entitlement Offer is fully underwritten by Cygnet Capital Pty Limited ( Underwriter ).
The proceeds of the Entitlement Offer will be used by the Company to fund commercial roll out of the Company's encrypted data collaboration platform, sales and marketing in the US and Australia and general working capital.
As a result of the Entitlement Offer, the number of Shares in the Company is projected to increase from 158,443,751 Shares (which includes 50,000,001 Shares that are escrowed until 10 November 2019) to approximately 221,821,251 Shares (subject to rounding, and assuming the full amount is raised). The Shares issued under the Entitlement Offer will be fully paid and will rank equally with the Company’s other fully paid ordinary shares on issue. The Company has made an application to the ASX for official quotation of the total number of Shares that could be issued under the Entitlement Offer (i.e. up to 63,377,500).
Eligible Shareholders can choose to take up all, part or none of their Entitlement. As the Entitlement Offer is non-renounceable, this means that Eligible Shareholders who do not take up their entitlement to participate in the Entitlement Offer will not be able to transfer or receive any value for those entitlements, and their equity interest in the Company will be diluted.
The Entitlement Offer is intended to include a shortfall facility (at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors) under which Eligible Shareholders who take up their full entitlement will be invited to apply for additional Shares, in excess of their entitlement, in the Entitlement Offer from a pool of those entitlements not taken up by other Eligible Shareholders ( Shortfall Facility ). Applications for shares in excess of an Eligible Shareholders Entitlement will be

capped at an additional 100% of their entitlement, up to a maximum of $25,000. Applications for Additional Shares may be subject to scale-back depending on the final number of Additional Shares, if any, comprising the shortfall of the Entitlement Offer and the quantum applied for by each Eligible Shareholder. There is no guarantee that applicants under this Shortfall Facility will receive all or any of the additional Shares applied for under the Shortfall Facility, and sole discretion with respect to such allocation remains with the Board.
Eligible Shareholders wishing to participate in the Entitlement Offer should carefully read the Offer Booklet and accompanying personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form which are expected to be dispatched on or around 8 November 2019.
