As announced on 19 June 2012, the directors of DYL have resolved to undertake a pro-rata non-renounceable rights issue of approximately 250,830,312 shares on the basis of 2 new shares for every 9 shares held as at 5.00pm (WST) on 29 June 2012 ( Record Date) at an issue price of 4.2 cents per share ( Offer ). The issue will raise a maximum of $10,534,873 if all of the entitlements are taken up.
The Offer will be made to all registered shareholders on the Record Date and who reside in Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom, Ireland, South Africa and Namibia.
The Offer is made pursuant to a prospectus lodged with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission on 20 June 2012 ( Prospectus ). The Prospectus is available on DYL’s website: www.deepyellow.com.au or on the ASX website (company announcements section, ASX code: DYL): www.asx.com.au.
The Company has determined, pursuant to Listing Rule 7.7.1(a) of the ASX Listing Rules, that it is unreasonable to extend the Offer to those shareholders that are Excluded Foreign Holders. The Company has taken into consideration the size of the shareholdings held by the Excluded Foreign Holders and the costs of complying with the legal requirements and the requirements of the regulatory authorities relating to Excluded Foreign Holders. Accordingly, the Company is unable to extend to you the opportunity to participate in the entitlements issue.
Subject to ASIC's approval for the purposes of section 615 of the Corporations Act 2001 , the Company has appointed Patersons Securities Limited as nominee for Excluded Foreign Holders (Nominee). The Company advises the Excluded Foreign Holders that the Nominee will arrange for the sale of the shares that would be on offer to Excluded Foreign Holders and if they are sold, for the net proceeds to be sent to the Excluded Foreign Holders.
Please note it is possible that no net proceeds will be available for distribution to Excluded Foreign Holders after the costs of the sale have been paid to the Nominee. We will inform you in due course of the outcome of the sale of the shares.
Thank you for your ongoing support of the Company, if you have any questions in relation to the above, please do not hesitate to contact the Company Secretary on +61 8 9286 6999.
