On behalf of the Directors of Eden Innovations Ltd A.C.N. 109 200 900 (Eden), I am pleased to offer all Eligible Shareholders of Eden the opportunity to participate in this new SPP, which was announced on 19 June 2020.
This SPP is designed to raise A$5,000,000 through the issue of approximately 178,571,429 ordinary fully paid shares in Eden (Shares) to Eligible Shareholders at a price of A$0.028 per Share (Issue Price). There is no minimum subscription to this SPP, and no guarantee that the full $5,000,000 will be raised under this SPP. The Directors reserve the right (in their sole and absolute discretion) to either:
-
(a) close this SPP early and/or to scale back applications, to the extent and in the manner the Directors see fit; or
-
(b) accept oversubscriptions (subject to the proviso that the maximum amount which will be raised under this SPP will not exceed A$7,000,000 and subject to compliance with any requirements of the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act).
The Company reserves absolute discretion regarding the final amount raised under this SPP.
Participation in this SPP is optional.
This SPP will allow Eligible Shareholders to subscribe for between A$1,000 up to a maximum of A$30,000 of additional Shares, without brokerage and transaction costs.
As you may be aware, the Company, under a share purchase plan despatched in August 2019, raised A$2,908,000 (before expenses) through the issue of 58,160,000 Shares. If you were issued with any new Shares under this August 2019 SPP Offer:
-
(a) the maximum amount which you may subscribe for new Shares under this SPP will be reduced by the amount which you paid to subscribe for Shares under the August 2019 SPP Offer; and
-
(b) your personalised Application Form will show the (reduced) maximum amount which you may subscribe for new Shares under this SPP.
Each Eligible Shareholder may (subject to any reduced maximum subscription amount which may apply to them as mentioned above) apply for a parcel of Shares valued at either A$1,000 (35,715 Shares), A$2,000 (71,429 Shares), A$3,000 (107,143 Shares), A$4,000 (142, 858 Shares), A$5,000 (178,572 Shares), A$7,500 (267,858 Shares), A$10,000 (357,143 Shares), A$12,500 (446,429 Shares), A$15,000 (535,715 Shares), A$17,500 (625,000 Shares), A$20,000 (714,286 Shares), A$22,500 (803,572 Shares), A$25,000 (892,858 Shares), A$27,500 (982,143 Shares) or A$30,000 (1,071,429 Shares). Alternatively, Eligible Shareholders may do nothing (thereby retaining their current shareholding).
This SPP opens on 23 June 2020 and is expected to close at 5:00pm WST on 10 July 2020, unless it is closed earlier. Eligible Shareholders who choose to participate in this SPP should follow the instructions on the enclosed personalised Application Form.
The Issue Price at which the Shares will be issued under this SPP is A$0.028 per Share, being approximately a 10.4% discount to the volume weighted average market price of the Shares calculated over the last 5 trading days on which sales in the Shares were recorded before the date on which this SPP was announced.
Funds raised under this SPP will supplement existing funds and be used to finance Eden’s general working capital.

This SPP is intended to give Eligible Shareholders the opportunity to purchase additional Shares, without transaction costs and brokerage. The Board reserves the right to make similar offers under similar share purchase plans in the future.
The full terms and conditions of this SPP, and a personalised Application Form, are attached to this letter and I urge all Eligible Shareholders to read them in their entirety before they decide whether to participate in this SPP. On behalf of the Board, I invite you to consider this opportunity to increase your investment in Eden.

For the purposes of the Instrument, you are a “custodian” if you provide a “custodial or depository service” (as defined in section 766E of the Corporations Act disregarding s.766E(3)) in relation to Shares and :-
-
(1) hold an Australian financial services licence covering the provision of a custodial or depository service;
-
(2) is exempt from the requirement to hold an Australian financial services licence covering the provision of a custodial or depository service;

(5) is the registered holder of Shares and is noted on the register of members of the Company as holding the Shares on account of another person.
If you hold Shares as a trustee or nominee for another person, but are not a Custodian as defined above, you cannot participate for a Participating Beneficiary(ies) in the manner described above. In this case, the rules for multiple single holdings set out above apply.
4.3 Overseas Shareholders
Eden has determined that it is not practical for holders of Shares with registered addresses in jurisdictions other than Australia and New Zealand to participate in this SPP.
To the extent that you hold Shares on behalf of another person resident outside Australia or New Zealand, it is your responsibility to ensure that any Application complies with all applicable foreign laws.
The Shares to be issued under this SPP have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act 1933 (US) , or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States.
5. Non-Renounceable Offer
Your rights under this Offer are personal to you and this Offer is non-renounceable. This means that you cannot transfer your right to purchase Shares under this SPP to anyone else.
6. Participation is Optional
Participation in this SPP is entirely optional (subject to the eligibility criteria set out in section 4 above). This Offer is not a recommendation. If you are in any doubt about this Offer, whether you should participate in this SPP or how such participation will affect you, you should seek independent financial and taxation advice before making a decision as to whether or not to accept this Offer.
Eden also recommends that you monitor the Share price, which can be found at www.asx.com.au (ASX code: EDE).
7. Issue Price
The Issue Price for each Share being offered under this SPP is $0.028, being approximately a 10.4% discount to the volume-weighted average price of the Shares (as defined in the ASX Listing Rules) during the five trading days prior to 19 June 2020, being the day on which this SPP was announced.
The Issue Price is fixed regardless of any change in the market price of the Shares during the period this SPP is open.
Before deciding whether to participate in this Offer you should refer to the current market price of the Shares, which can be obtained at www.asx.com.au (ASX Code: EDE).
The Issue Price may differ to the market price of the Shares at any point in time and from time to time. The market price of the Shares may rise or fall between the date of this Offer, the date you make an Application under this SPP and the date when Shares are issued to you under this SPP. This means that the Issue Price you pay per Share under this SPP may be greater than or less than the market price of the Shares at the time the Shares are issued to you under this SPP. Accordingly, there is a risk that the market price of the new Shares when they are issued to you under this SPP (or at any time thereafter) may be lower than the Issue Price. The number of Shares that you may receive under an Application under this SPP may be more or less than the number you might calculate using the market price of the Shares. Also, up to or after the date of issue of Shares to you under this SPP, you may be able to buy Shares at a price lower than the Issue Price.
6
Subscription for new Shares under this SPP is a speculative investment.
This document is not, and is not required to be, a disclosure document for the purpose of Chapter 6D of the Corporations Act and does not therefore include a detailed summary of the risks associated with Eligible Shareholders increasing their investment in Eden. You must rely on your own knowledge of the Company and previous disclosures made by the Company to ASX (including the detailed disclosures regarding the risks of making an investment in the Company which are contained in, amongst others, documentation relating to previous fundraisings undertaken by the Company, all of which can be read on the Company’s and ASX’s website (ASX Code: EDE)). These risks may materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the new Shares offered under this SPP. Therefore, no assurances or guarantees of future profitability, distributions, payment of dividends, return of capital or performance of the Company or its Shares can be, or is, provided by the Company.
In determining whether to participate in this Offer and the extent to which you participate, you should seek your own advice from your own professional advisers referable to your own personal circumstances.
8. How Much Can You Invest and Calculation of the Number of New Shares which will be issued to you
Eligible Shareholders may only acquire a maximum of A$30,000 of Shares under this SPP, with a minimum application of A$1,000 being required. If you were issued Shares under the August 2019 SPP Offer, the A$30,000 maximum subscription amount will be reduced by the amount which you paid to subscribe for Shares under the August 2019 SPP Offer ( Reduced Maximum Subscription Amount ) (and your personalised Application Form will specify your Reduced Maximum Subscription Amount).
You may apply for any number of Shares that matches a parcel detailed in the following table (if a Reduced Maximum Subscription Amount applies to you, you may apply for any parcel which has a subscription amount which is less than your Reduced Maximum Subscription Amount).
| Parcel | Subscription Amount ($A) |
Shares to be issued calculated at the Issue Price |
|---|---|---|
| Parcel A | $1,000(minimum) | 35,715 |
| Parcel B | $2,000 | 71,429 |
| Parcel C | $3,000 | 107,143 |
| Parcel D | $4,000 | 142,858 |
| Parcel E | $5,000 | 178,572 |
| Parcel F | $7,500 | 267,858 |
| Parcel G | $10,000 | 357,143 |
| Parcel H | $12,500 | 446,429 |
| Parcel I | $15,000 | 535,715 |

| Parcel N | $27,500 | 982,143 |

Please note that your maximum subscription amount applies even if you receive more than one Application Form or if you hold Shares in Eden in more than one capacity – see section 4 above.
9. Scale Back
Given the number of Eden’s shareholders at the Record Date, each of whom will have a right to subscribe, subject to any applicable Reduced Maximum Subscription Amount applicable to them, for up to A$30,000 of additional Shares, it is possible that Eden could receive from Eligible Shareholders applications for Shares which, in aggregate, exceed the number of Shares proposed to be allotted under this SPP (see section 1). If this occurs, the Directors reserve the right, in their sole and absolute discretion, to accept oversubscriptions (subject to the proviso that the maximum amount which will be raised under this SPP will not exceed A$7,000,000 and subject to compliance with any requirements of the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act). If the Directors do not resolve to exercise their discretion to accept any oversubscriptions, Eden reserves the right to close this Offer early and /or to scale back applications received from Eligible Shareholders to the extent and in the manner the Directors see fit. When determining the amount (if any) by which to scale back the number of new Shares an Eligible Shareholder has applied for, the Company may have regard to and take into account a number of factors,
7
including the size of the Eligible Shareholder’s shareholding, the length of time they have been a shareholder, the extent to which Eligible Shareholders have sold or bought additional Shares after the Record Date and the date an Application was made. Eligible Shareholders who wish to participate are therefore encouraged to submit their Applications early.
If a scale back produces a fractional number when applied to the number of new Shares for which you have applied, the number of new Shares issued to you will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of new Shares.
If any applications are scaled back, you may not receive all of the new Shares that you have applied for and Eden reserves the right to allot to an Eligible Shareholder fewer new Shares than an Eligible Shareholder applied for under this Offer. In such a case, any surplus in the Application Amount paid by an Eligible Shareholder will be refunded by Eden to that Eligible Shareholder, without interest, following the Issue Date.
The Board’s decision in connection with a scale back is final.
10. Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgements by Eligible Shareholders

The Directors also reserve the right, in their sole and absolute discretion, to accept over-subscriptions (subject to the proviso that the maximum amount which will be raised under this SPP will not exceed A$7,000,000 and subject to compliance with any requirements of the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act).
16. Allotment and Quotation Dates
Shares are expected to be allotted under this SPP on 15 July 2020.
Eden will apply for those Shares to be listed for quotation on the ASX.
Eden expects to dispatch a holding statement in respect of the Shares allotted to Eligible Shareholders under this SPP on 15 July 2020. Eligible Shareholders should confirm their holding before trading in any Shares they believe have been allotted to them under this SPP.
If Eden receives Applications for, in aggregate, more than A$5,000,000 worth of Shares, to the extent it decides not to accept any oversubscriptions, Shares will be allocated amongst Eligible Shareholders in the manner set out in section 9 of this SPP.
17. Ranking of Shares
All Shares issued to Eligible Shareholders under this SPP will rank equally with existing Shares from the date of issue, and will therefore carry the same voting rights, dividend rights and other entitlements as existing Shares.

18. Director Participation
Those Directors of the Company (or entities associated with them) who accepted (in whole or part) an August 2019 SPP Offer made to them, will not be able to participate in this Offer, as the Company will be prohibited (by the ASX Listing Rules) from issuing Shares to them.
ASX Listing Rule 10.11 prohibits the Company from issuing Shares to a related party of it (which will include its Directors) unless it first obtains shareholder approval. Whilst Exception 4 of ASX Listing Rule 10.12 provides an exception for Shares issued under a share purchase plan, that exception is only available once in any 12 month period. The August 2019 SPP Offer was completed less than 12 months ago.
Any Directors of the Company, or entities associated with them, which are Eligible Shareholders and who were not issued with any Shares pursuant to an August 2019 SPP Offer, may participate in this Offer (without having to obtain shareholder approval) on the same terms and conditions as all other Eligible Shareholders.
19. Privacy
By returning an Application Form or making a payment by BPay®, each Eligible Shareholder acknowledges that they have received and read this SPP and will be providing certain information to Eden. If you do not provide the information, Eden may not be able to accept or process your Application under this SPP.
As Eligible Shareholders are already shareholders of Eden, Eden and its share registry (Advanced Share Registry Services) have already collected certain personal information from Eligible Shareholders. However, if Eligible Shareholders apply for new Shares pursuant to this SPP, they will be supplying new, additional, or updated personal information (by its inclusion on the Application Form or by making a payment by BPay®) to Eden.
The information provided by an Eligible Shareholder is used for the purposes of processing that Eligible Shareholder’s application under this SPP and to administer the Eligible Shareholder’s holding of Shares. By making an Application for Shares under this SPP, each Eligible Shareholder agrees that Eden may use the information provided by an Eligible Shareholder in connection with that Application for the purposes set out in this privacy statement and may disclose it for those purposes to Advanced Share Registry Services and Eden’s related bodies corporate, agents and contractors and third party service providers, including mailing houses, professional advisers (e.g. auditors, lawyers and accountants), intellectual technology support providers and to ASX and other regulatory authorities.
The Corporations Act requires Eden to include information about each of its shareholders (including name, address and details of the Shares held) in its public register. The information contained in Eden’s public register must remain there even if that person ceases to be a shareholder of Eden. Information contained in Eden’s register is also used to facilitate payments and corporate communications (including Eden’s financial results, annual reports and other information that Eden wishes to communicate to its shareholders) and compliance by Eden with legal and regulatory requirements.
Under the Privacy Act, shareholders have a right to gain access to personal information that Eden holds about that person, subject to certain exemptions under law. A fee may be charged for access. Access requests must be made in writing to Eden’s registered office.
20. Withdrawal, Suspension and Termination,
Eden reserves the right to waive strict compliance with any provision of these Terms and Conditions, to amend or vary these Terms and Conditions and to suspend or terminate this SPP at any time. Any such amendments, variations, suspension or termination will be binding on all Eligible Shareholders even where Eden does not notify you of that event.
21. Disputes
Eden may make determinations in any manner it thinks fit, including in relation to any difficulties, anomalies or disputes which may arise in connection with or by reason of the operation of this SPP, whether generally or in relation to any Eligible Shareholder or Application. Any determinations by Eden will be conclusive and binding on all Eligible Shareholders and other persons to whom the determination relates. Eden’s rights may be exercised by the Board or any delegate of the Board.
