RISK FACTORS

Refer to Section 2 for details of the risks associated with an investment in the Company. As with any securities investment, there are risks associated with investing in the Company.

1. DETAILS OF THE OFFER

1.1 The Offer

This Prospectus invites investors identified by the Directors to apply for a total of up to 10,000 Listed Options ( Offer ).

The Offer is only available to those who are personally invited to accept the Offer. Accordingly, Application Forms will only be provided by the Company to these parties.

The Listed Options offered under this Prospectus are exercisable at $0.03 on or before 31 December 2022 and are on the same terms and conditions as the existing Listed Options on issue prior to the Closing Date. The full terms and conditions of the Listed Options are set out in Section 4.3

All Shares issued on exercise of the Listed Options will rank equally with the Shares then on issue. A summary of the rights and liabilities attaching to Shares is set out in Section 4.2.

1.2

Objective

The purpose of the Offer is not to raise funds. Instead, its purpose is to remove trading restrictions on Options issued to Placement Participants without disclosure under Part 6D of the Corporations Act before the Closing Date. These Options were originally issued on an unlisted basis, however, the Company now intends to seek Official Quotation of these Options.

Generally, section 707(3) of the Corporations Act requires that a prospectus is issued in order for a person to whom securities were issued without disclosure under Part 6D of the Corporations Act to offer those securities for sale within 12 months of their issue.

The Corporations Act provides an exception to section 707(3) where an entity issues a ‘cleansing’ notice under section 708A(5). However, the Company is precluded from issuing a 'cleansing' notice in respect of the Listed Options as they are not in a class of securities that were quoted securities at all times in the last 3 months.

However, section 708A(11)(b) of the Corporations Act provides that a sale offer does not need disclosure to investors if:

  • (a) the relevant securities are in a class of securities of the company that are already quoted on the ASX;

  • (b) a prospectus is lodged with ASIC either:

  • (i) on or after the day on which the relevant securities were issued; or

  • (ii) before the day on which the relevant securities are issued and offers of securities that have been made under the prospectus are still open for acceptance on the day on which the relevant securities were issued; and

  • (c) the prospectus is for an offer of securities issued by the company that are in the same class of securities as the relevant securities.

1.3 Underwriting

The Offer is not underwritten.

1.4 Minimum Subscription

If the quotation requirements are not satisfied or ASX otherwise does not grant Official Quotation of the Listed Options, the Listed Options will be issued on an unquoted.

The fact that ASX may grant official quotation to the Listed Options is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the merits of the Company or the Listed Options now offered under this Prospectus.

1.8 Issue of Listed Options

The Listed Options to be issued pursuant to the Offer will be issued in accordance with the timetable set out at the commencement of this Prospectus and otherwise in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules.

Holding statements for the Listed Options issued under the Offer will be mailed in accordance with the timetable set out at the commencement of this Prospectus and otherwise in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules.

1.9 CHESS and Issuer Sponsorship

The Company operates an electronic CHESS sub-register and an electronic issuer sponsored sub-register. These two sub-registers make up the Company’s register of securities. The Company will not issue certificates to investors. Rather, holding statements (similar to bank statements) will be dispatched to investors as soon as practicable after issue.

Holding statements will be sent either by CHESS (for new investors who elect to hold their securities on the CHESS sub-register) or by the Company’s Share Registry (for new investors

8

who elect to hold their securities on the Issuer sponsored sub-register). The statements will set out the number of Listed Options issued under the Prospectus and provide details of a Holder Identification Number (for new investors who elect to hold their securities on the Chess sub-register) or Security holder Reference Number (for new investors who elect to hold their securities on the issuer sponsored sub-register). Updated holding statements will also be sent to each new investor following the month in which the balance of their holding of Securities changes, and also as required by the Listing Rules or the Corporations Act.

1.10 Risks

As with any securities investment, there are risks associated with investing in the Company. The principal risks that could affect the financial and market performance of the Company are detailed in Section 2 of this Prospectus. The Listed Options on offer under this Prospectus should be considered speculative.

1.11 Overseas Applicants

2. RISK FACTORS

2.1 Introduction

The Listed Options offered under this Prospectus should be considered speculative because of the nature of the Company’s business.

Whilst the Directors recommend that investors take up their entitlement to Listed Options, there are however numerous risk factors involved. Some of these risks can be mitigated by the use of safeguards and appropriate systems and controls, but some are outside the control of the Company and cannot be mitigated. Accordingly, an investment in the Company carries no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, return of capital or price at which the Listed Options (or the underlying Shares) will trade.

The following is a summary of the more material matters to be considered and should be read in conjunction with specific matters referred to in the Company’s announcements and reports. However, the summary is not exhaustive and potential investors should examine the contents of this Prospectus in its entirety and consult their professional advisors before deciding whether to apply for the Listed Options.

2.2 Company specific

2.2.1 Start-up Risks

Fatfish Group Limited, invests in early-stage startup businesses in the internet and IT sectors. These startup businesses often possess nothing more than a conceptual business plan and early prototypes of their products. These startup businesses need to overcome significant business challenges to further develop their products and business plans so that they can reach a stage where their business operations are self-sustaining and profitable.

2.2.2 Short and Long Term Funding Risks

The Group principally generates income via exits from its investments. Exits from investments could take typically 2 to 4 years from initial investments. During this gestation period, the Group needs to rely on its own funding to continuously make further investments into new businesses it identifies to maintain a pipeline of investments that it can continue to work on. The Group will also be dependent on its own funding to maintain its own business operations. There is a possibility that the Group will need to look for further funding in the short term to finance its business plan if it has not achieved exits from its investments in the near future.

For some of the businesses it invests in, the Group will rely on its ability to enhance the value of the businesses together with the management of these companies so that they can reach a more mature stage where the businesses can attract significant investments from thirdparty investors introduced by the Group. The growth of some of these businesses will be dependent on the success of raising further capital from these third-party investors.

2.2.3 Varying control and influence in its investments

The Group has no control and only limited influence over some of the companies in which it invests in. Such companies are operationally independent and may make business decisions that are not in the Company’s best interest.

Historically, the Group plays an active role in advising the management of the companies that the Group does not control on its operations and product development plans. However, there can be no assurance that such companies will continue to heed or solicit our advice, including advice on significant financial or other business decision that may have a material

11

effect on the Company’s interest or may be inconsistent with the Company’s business strategy.

2.2.4 Going concern

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is principally dependent on the Company’s ability to increase cashflow from existing businesses, managing cashflow in line with available funds and raising additional capital. These conditions indicate uncertainty that may cast doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. In the event the above matters are not achieved, the Company will be required to raise funds for working capital from debt or equity sources.

2.2.5 Technology and Intellectual Property

The Group’s success will depend, in part, on the ability of the companies in which it invests in to maintain trade secret protection and other protection over their intellectual property and operation without infringing the property rights of third parties of having third parties circumvent those parties’ rights. No guarantee can be given that such protection will be successfully and validly maintained.

The commercial value of the intellectual property assets is dependent on legal protections provided by a combination of copyright, patent, confidentiality, trademark, trade secrecy laws and other intellectual property rights. These legal mechanisms, however do note guarantee that the intellectual property will be protected or that its commercial value will be maintained.

The Group intends to continually evaluate the intellectual property in which it will acquire an interest and ensure that steps are undertaken to continually property its proprietary intellectual property rights and the formal registration of its proprietary intellectual property rights it undertaken as and when appropriate. However there can be no assurance at any time that:

  • (a) any such rights can be formally established;

  • (b) the measures taken will be adequate to protect the property technology;

  • (c) any intellectual rights will provide it with any competitive advantages and will not be challenged by third parties;

  • (d) the rights of others will not materially adversely affect the Group’s ability to do business., its financial condition and the results of its operations (and therefore the impact on the future viability and profitability of the Group).

While the Company believes that the Group and the companies in which it has an interest have taken appropriate steps to protect their proprietary rights to date, the law may not adequately protect these rights in all places where the Group does business, or enable the same rights to be defended sufficiently to avoid adverse material impact on operations.

2.3 Additional risks specific to the Group

2.3.1 Ability to Promote the Group’s “Fatfish Brand”

Brand image is a key factor in promoting and marketing technology companies. The Group is committed to building its brand by creating value in technology companies from start-up phase to more developed companies and therefore being presented with more opportunities in Asia, and, if relevant, Australia. The Company believes that the Group has been successful in establishing its brand and attracting investee projects in Asia and that the Company’s

12

status as an ASX-listed company will continue to enhance the Group’s profile and brand in the Australasia region.

2.3.2 Commercialisation and Demand Risk

There is a risk that the companies in which the Group will acquire an interest may fail to develop products that meet specific customer requirements.

While the Company will endeavour to ensure that all effort will be given in relation to research and development of the various products developed by the companies in which the Group has an interest to ensure that they have a viable customer base for their current and proposed products, there can be no guarantee that those parties will continue to have s demand for the technology offered. Any decrease in the demand will have a negative effort on the prospects of the Group. The Group has, at least in part, mitigated the commercialisation risks by investing in multiple product pathways, with multiple technology development partners.

2.3.3 Competition risk

The industry in which the Company, through the Group, is involved in is subject to domestic and global competition. Although the Group will undertake all reasonable due diligence in its business decision and operations, the Group will have no influence or control over the activities or actions of its competitors, which activities or actions may, positively or negatively, affect the operating and financial performance of the Groups projects and business.

The Group intends to continue to operate in an industry that relies on accurate and innovative products. Technology changes occur rapidly, and there is a risk that the services provided and products to be produced by the Group may become technically inferior to other services and products available in the market.

Additionally, many internet businesses have low barriers to entry. Current or new competitors may adopt certain aspects of the Group’s business model without great financial expense, thereby reducing the Group’s ability to differentiate its services. Competition may arise from a number of resources. It may include companies from the traditional industry that may have great capital resources and closer supplier relationships than the Group. Competition may also arise from global companies with developed processes, systems and technologies. Suppliers may also choose to establish their own online sales sites rather than utilising the Group to sell their products and services online.

Any significant competition may adversely affect the Group’s ability to meet its business objectives.

Additionally, the development and commercialisation of new technologies that are more cost efficient than the technology in which the Group has an interest in or offer greater variety in services and products than those of the Group’s, could pale the Group at a competitive disadvantage.

2.3.4 Sovereign Risk

The Group’s operations will continue to include a focus on markets in Southeast Asia, including but not limited to Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia. The economic growth in those and other Southeast Asian nations is expected to continue its upward trend in a stable manner. These economies are driven by strong domestic consumption and long trackrecords of exports.

Possible sovereign risks associated with operating in Southeast Asian nations include, without limitation, changes in the terms of legislation, changes to taxation rates and concessions and changes in the ability to enforce legal rights. Any of these factors may, in

13

the future, adversely affect the financial performance of the Group and the market price of the Company’s Shares and New Options.

No assurance can be given regarding future stability in Southeast Asia or any other nation in which the Group may, in the future, have an interest.

2.3.5 System and Content Integrity

The Group is dependent on the ability of the products from companies in which it has an interest in to be sold and operated on technology platforms, devices and operating systems run by telecommunication operators, data centres and other third parties. However, the Group’s influence over these third parties is limited. The Group will not be in control of the maintenance, upkeep and continued supply of effective service from external supplies in these areas. Any system failure that causes an interruption to the websites could materially affect its business and financial performance. System failures, if prolonged, could reduce the attractiveness of the websites to visitors and hinder the Group’s ability to make sales to buyers, and would damage its business reputation and brand name in the market place which can be compounded by social media.

Although the Group’s systems have been designed around industry standard architectures, they remain vulnerable to damage or interruption from earthquakes, floods, fires, power loss, telecommunication failures, terrorist attacks, computer viruses or similar events. Although the Group has a disaster recovery plan, it cannot account for all eventualities.

2.3.6 Decline on the Growth of Internet Use

Internet use in the current markets of Singapore, Indonesia and Malaysia in particular, has been growing. However, there can be no guarantee that this growth will continue in the future. While increased internet use and a migration of sales to digital platforms have occurred over recent years, there can be no guarantee that the rate of growth in internet use and rate of migration will continue in the future, which may have an adverse effect on the expected growth of the Group.

2.3.7 Brand Management and Maintenance

The Company believes that establishing and maintaining its brands is critical to growing its proposed user base and product acceptance. This will depend largely on the Group’s ability to provide useful and innovative products. The actions of external industry participants and social media may affect the Group’s brands if users do not have a positive experience using the websites and its platforms, devices or operating systems that provide access to the Group’s products and services respectively.

If the Group fails to successfully establish and maintain its brands its businesses and operating results could be adversely affected.

2.3.8 Display of Inappropriate Content

The Group will have processes that allow it to monitor and remove inappropriate content placed on the websites, whether deliberately or inadvertently. However, the Group will not have the ability to guarantee that all content displayed on the websites is appropriate at all times. This includes but is not limited to the presentation of photographs accepted by the Group in good faith and under the terms of its supplier contracts. The Group cannot

14

guarantee that such material is not obscene, offensive or otherwise damaging to its business reputation and brand name, or the reputation of any third party.

2.3.9 Reliance on Third Party Payment and Logistics Providers

To complete sales on the Group’s websites, the Group will rely on third party banking, payment and logistic providers. The Group’s influence over these third parties will be limited. Any system or service failure that causes an interruption to the Group’s ability to receive payments or deliver purchased goods to its buyers and effect payment transactions could materially affect its business and financial performance. System or service failures, if prolonged, could reduce the attractiveness of the group’s services to visitors to the websites and hinder the ability to make sales to buyers, and would damage its business and reputation and brand name.

2.3.10 Contractual Risk

In order for the Group to be able to achieve its objectives, the Group will be reliant on third parties with which it will become involved to comply with their contractual obligations.

Where those third parties fail to comply with the terms and conditions of their agreements with the Group, the Group could lose the rights acquired under the relevant agreement(s). It may then be necessary for the Group to approach a court to seek a legal remedy. Legal actions can be costly and there can be no guarantee that a legal remedy will be ultimately granted on the appropriate terms. The Group has no current reason to believe that any third party that the Group has contracted with will not meet and satisfy their obligations under any agreement.

2.3.11 General Litigation risks

The Company is exposed to possible litigation risks including contractual disputes, occupational health and safety claims and employee claims. Further, the Company may be involved in disputes with other parties in the future which may result in litigation. Any such claim or dispute if proven, may impact adversely on the Company’s operations, financial performance and financial position.

2.4 Industry specific risks

2.4.1 Rapidly updating industry

The technology industries, including financial technology, online service and entertainment providers tend to experience rapid evolution from time to time. If the entities in which the Group has interests in are not capable of staying current with industry trends, there is a risk that the technology in which the Group will acquire an interest will become outdated and not be capable of being sold or licensed. Although, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, its subsidiaries (wholly owned or otherwise) endeavour to keep pace with the evolution of their industries, there can be no assurance that any significant changes that may occur in online industries, will not have a material adverse effect on the operations of the Group.

In addition, significant outlays may be required where technology is updated that the Group must make use of.

2.4.2 Corruption of Databases

The databases used by entities in which the Group has interests in are a valuable asset. They are subject to risks associated with computer viruses, physical or electronic breakins, loss of data from physical damage or from failures in third party service providers or operating systems and similar disruptions, as well as to damage from the inadvertent introduction onto

15

its systems of incorrect programming language by its employees. An irrecoverable loss of any of the databases would be expensive to remedy, would have a material adverse effect on an entity’s operations and financial position, and would damage its business reputation and brands.

2.4.3 New Technology

If the entities in which the Group has interest in are significantly slower than their competitors in adapting technological changes, it may lead to a reduction in business. This could have an adverse effect on the entity’s ability to attract new buyers and retain its existing customer base.

2.4.4 Hacking and Vandalism

The business entities in which the Group will acquire an interest may be adversely affected by malicious third party applications that interfere with, or exploit, security flaws in the websites. Viruses, worms and other malicious software programs could, among other things, jeopardise the security information stored in a user’s computer or in the entity’s computer systems or attempt to change the internet experience of users by interfering with the entity’s ability to connect with its users. If the entity’s efforts to combat these malicious applications are unsuccessful, or if the websites have actual or perceived vulnerabilities, the entity’s business reputation and brand name may be harmed and user traffic could decline, which may result in a material adverse effect on the entity’s operations.

2.4.5 Unauthorised use of intellectual property or independent development of technology

The Group regards substantial elements of its websites, software, tools, applications, buyer databases and underlying technology as proprietary. Despite precautionary measures, third parties may copy or otherwise obtain and use the Group’s proprietary information without authorisation or may develop similar technology independently. In addition, competitors may be able to design around the Group’s technology or develop competing technologies substantially similar to those of the Group without any infringement of the Group’s proprietary rights. Any legal action that the Group may bring to protect its proprietary information could be unsuccessful and expensive and would divert management’s attention from its business operations.

2.4.6 Product Returns

While the Group will generally be under no obligation to acquire products from suppliers, in the event that the product is not sold, the Group will generally be responsible for the cost and liability of any product returns.

2.4.7 Insurance

The Group will maintain insurance where it is considered appropriate for its needs. However it will not be insured against all risks either because appropriate cover is not available or because the Directors consider the required premiums to be excessive having regard to the benefits that would accrue.

Accordingly, the Group may not be fully insured against all losses and liabilities that could unintentionally arise from its operations. If the Group incurs uninsured losses or liabilities, the value of the Group’s assets may be at risk.

16

2.5 General risks

2.5.1 Foreign exchange risk

The Group will continue to be exposed to the volatility and fluctuations of the exchange rate between currencies throughout South-East Asia, the Swedish krona and the Australian dollar.

Global currencies are affected by a number of factors that are beyond the control of the Group. These factors include economic conditions in the relevant country and elsewhere and the outlook for interest rates, inflation and other economic factors. These factors may have a positive or negative effect on the Group's investee companies and their plans and activities together with the ability to fund those plans and activities.

The Group will have costs, expenses and investments denominated in multiple currencies. The Company’s Share price is (and the trading price of the Listed Options will be) denominated in Australian dollars. The Company will also report its financial results in Australian dollars. Accordingly, the Company’s reported financial performance will be influenced by fluctuations in exchange rates between the Australian dollar and other currencies in which it may earn income or accrue expenses, which in the first instance will include the Singapore dollar, the Swedish krona, the United States Dollars and the Malaysian Ringgit.

2.5.2 Economic

General economic conditions, introduction of tax reform, new legislation, movements in interest and inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company's research and development programmes, as well as on its ability to fund those programmes.

2.5.3 Market conditions

Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s quoted securities regardless of the Company’s operating performance. Share market conditions are affected by many factors such as:

  • (a) general economic outlook;

  • (b) introduction of tax reform or other new legislation;

  • (c) interest rates and inflation rates;

  • (d) changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

  • (e) the demand for, and supply of, capital; and

  • (f) terrorism or other hostilities.

The market price of securities can fall as well as rise and may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general and technology stocks in particular. Neither the Company nor the Directors warrant the future performance of the Company or any return on an investment in the Company.

2.5.4 Potential Acquisitions

As part of its business strategy, the Group intends to make acquisitions of, or significant investments in, complementary companies or projects. Any such future transactions would be accompanied by the risks commonly encountered in making such acquisitions.

17

The Group may make acquisitions in circumstances where the Directors believe that those acquisitions support the Group’s growth strategy. However, there can be no assurances that the Group will be able to identify, complete and integrate suitable acquisitions successfully. Acquiring new businesses can place significant strain on management, employees, systems and resources. Acquired businesses may not perform in line with expectations and it may not prove possible to achieve the desired synergies on the integration of news businesses.

2.5.5 Additional requirements for capital

The Company’s capital requirements depend on numerous factors. Depending on the Company’s ability to generate income from its operations, the Company may require further financing in addition to amounts raised under the Offer. Any additional equity financing will dilute shareholdings, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictions on financing and operating activities. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be required to reduce the scope of its operations and scale back its exploration programmes as the case may be. There is however no guarantee that the Company will be able to secure any additional funding or be able to secure funding on terms favourable to the Company.

2.5.6 Government Regulations

The Group will be subject to local laws and regulations in each of the jurisdictions in which it operates in (including taxation legislation). Future laws or regulations may be introduced concerning various aspects of the Company’s business activities, including without limitation online content, e-Commerce, foreign ownership restrictions, liability for third party activities and user privacy, all of which may impact the Group’s operations.

Changes in or extensions of laws and regulations affecting the business operations in the countries in which the Group operates in could restrict or complicate the Group’s activities and significantly increase its compliance costs.

2.5.7 Future performance of business activities

The value of the Company’s business activities is subject to the various unpredictable influences of the market it operates in and the economy in general. Accordingly, adverse economic and market conditions may be experienced by the Company which are outside of its control and may have an adverse effect on the Company.

2.5.8 Reliance on key personnel

The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations and the strategic management of the Company depends substantially on its senior management and its key personnel. There can be no assurance given that there will be no detrimental impact on the Company if one or more of these employees cease their employment.

2.5.9 Coronavirus (COVID-19)

The outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic ( COVID-19 ) is impacting the global economic markets. The nature and the extent of the effect of the outbreak on the performance of the Company remains unknown. The Company’s Share price may be adversely affected in the short to medium term by the economic uncertainty caused by COVID-19. Further, any government or industry measures taken in response to COVID-19 may adversely impact the Company’s operations and are likely to be beyond the control of the Company.

The Directors are monitoring the situation closely and have considered the impact of COVID19 on the Company’s business and financial performance. However, the situation is

18

continually evolving, and the consequences are therefore inevitably uncertain. In compliance with its continuous disclosure obligations, the Company will continue to update the market in regard to the impact of COVID-19 on the Company and its operations. If any of these impacts appear material prior to the close of the Offer, the Company will inform investors under a supplementary prospectus.

2.6 Speculative investment

The above list of risk factors ought not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The above factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the Listed Options offered under this Prospectus.

Therefore, the underlying Shares carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those Shares.

Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Listed Options pursuant to this Prospectus.

4.1 Terms and Conditions of Shares

4.2

Rights and Liabilities Attaching to Shares

The following is a summary of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to the Shares being the underlying securities of the Listed Options to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus. This summary is not exhaustive and does not constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. To obtain such a statement, persons should seek independent legal advice.

Full details of the rights and liabilities attaching to Shares are set out in the Constitution, a copy of which is available for inspection at the Company’s registered office during normal business hours.

(a) General meetings

Shareholders are entitled to be present in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative to attend and vote at general meetings of the Company.

Shareholders may requisition meetings in accordance with section 249D of the Corporations Act and the Constitution.

(b) Voting rights

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of Shares, at general meetings of Shareholders or classes of Shareholders:

  • (i) each Shareholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy, attorney or representative;

  • (ii) on a show of hands, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder has one vote; and

  • (iii) on a poll, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder shall, in respect of each fully paid Share held by him, or in respect of which he is appointed a proxy, attorney or representative, have one vote for the Share, but in respect of partly paid Shares shall have such number of votes as bears the same proportion to the total of such Shares registered in the Shareholder’s name as the amount paid (not credited) bears to the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited).

(c) Dividend rights

Subject to and in accordance with the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules, the rights of any preference Shareholders and to the rights of the holders of any shares created or raised under any special arrangement as to dividend, the Directors may from time to time declare a dividend to be paid to the Shareholders entitled to the dividend which shall be payable on all Shares according to the proportion that the amount paid (not credited) is of the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited) in respect of such Shares.

22

The Directors may from time to time pay to the Shareholders any interim dividends as they may determine. No dividend shall carry interest as against the Company. The Directors may set aside out of the profits of the Company any amounts that they may determine as reserves, to be applied at the discretion of the Directors, for any purpose for which the profits of the Company may be properly applied.

Subject to the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act, the Company may, by resolution of the Directors, implement a dividend reinvestment plan on such terms and conditions as the Directors think fit and which provides for any dividend which the Directors may declare from time to time payable on Shares which are participating Shares in the dividend reinvestment plan, less any amount which the Company shall either pursuant to the Constitution or any law be entitled or obliged to retain, be applied by the Company to the payment of the subscription price of Shares.

(d) Winding-up

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution of the Company, divide among the shareholders in kind the whole or any part of the property of the Company, and may for that purpose set such value as he considers fair upon any property to be so divided, and may determine how the division is to be carried out as between the Shareholders or different classes of Shareholders.

The liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution of the Company, vest the whole or any part of any such property in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as the liquidator thinks fit, but so that no Shareholder is compelled to accept any Shares or other securities in respect of which there is any liability.

(e) Shareholder liability

As the Shares under the Prospectus are fully paid shares, they are not subject to any calls for money by the Directors and will therefore not become liable for forfeiture.

(f) Transfer of Shares

Generally, Shares are freely transferable, subject to formal requirements, the registration of the transfer not resulting in a contravention of or failure to observe the provisions of a law of Australia and the transfer not being in breach of the Corporations Act or the ASX Listing Rules.

(g) Variation of rights

Pursuant to section 246B of the Corporations Act, the Company may, with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a meeting of Shareholders vary or abrogate the rights attaching to Shares.

If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of Shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class), whether or not the Company is being wound up, may be varied or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders of three-quarters of the issued shares of that class, or if authorised by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.

(h) Alteration of Constitution

The Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of Shareholders present and voting at the general meeting. In addition, at

23

least 28 days written notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution must be given.

  • (iii) if admitted to the official list of ASX at the time, apply for official quotation on ASX of Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the Options.

  • (h) Shares issued on exercise: Shares issued on exercise of the Options rank equally with the then issued shares of the Company.

  • (k) Change in exercise price: An Option does not confer the right to a change in Exercise Price or a change in the number of underlying securities over which the Option can be exercised.

  • (l) Adjustment of bonus issues: If the Company makes a bonus issue of Shares or other securities to existing Shareholders (other than an issue in lieu or in satisfaction, of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment): (a) the number of Shares which must be issued on exercise of an Option will be increased by the number of Shares which the holder would have received if the holder of the Options had exercised the option before the record date for the bonus issue; and (b) no change will be made to the Option exercise price.

  • (m) Transferability: The Options are transferable with prior written consent of the Board and subject to any restriction or escrow arrangements imposed by ASX or under applicable Australian securities laws.

  • (n) Adjustments: Any calculations or adjustments which are required to be made will be made by the Board and will, in the absence of manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on the Company and the Optionholder.

  • (o) Governing Law: These terms and the rights and obligations of the Option holder are governed by the laws of Western Australia. The Optioholder irrevocable and unconditionally submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Western Australia.

5.2

Nature of this Prospectus

The Listed Options to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus are options over continuously quoted securities. This Prospectus is issued under the special prospectus content rules for continuously quoted securities in Section 713 of the Corporations Act. This enables listed disclosing entities, such as the Company, to issue a prospectus for continuously quoted securities with modified disclosure requirements if they satisfy certain requirements.

The information in this Prospectus principally concerns the terms and conditions of the Offer and the information reasonably necessary to make an informed assessment of:

  • (a) the effect of the Offer on the Company; and

  • (b) the rights and liabilities attaching to the Listed Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus and the underlying securities.

The Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Investors should therefore also have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest in the Company.

5.3

Continuous Reporting and Disclosure Obligations

As the Company is admitted to the official list of ASX, the Company is a “disclosing entity” for the purposes of the Corporations Act. As such, it is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company is required to continuously disclose to the market any information it has which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Company’s securities.

Price sensitive information is publicly released through ASX before it is disclosed to Shareholders and market participants. Distribution of other information to Shareholders and market participants is also managed through disclosure to ASX. In addition, the Company posts information on its website after the ASX confirms an announcement has been made, with the aim of making the information readily accessible to the widest audience.

Investors are encouraged to check and monitor any further announcements made by the Company to ASX prior to securities being issued under the Offer. To do so, please refer to the Company’s ASX announcements platform via www.asx.com.au.

By virtue of section 713 of the Corporations Act, the Company is entitled to issue a “transaction-specific” prospectus in respect of the Offer.

In general terms, a “transaction-specific prospectus” is only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of securities on the Company and the rights and liabilities attaching to the securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, financial position and performance, profits and losses or prospects of the issuing company.

26

As a disclosing entity under the Corporations Act, the Company states that:

  • (a) it is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations;

  • (b) copies of documents lodged with ASIC in relation to the Company may be obtained from, or inspected at, an office of ASIC; and

  • (c) it will provide a copy of each of the following documents, free of charge, to any person on request between the date of issue of this Prospectus and the Closing Date:

  • (ii) any half-year financial report of the Company lodged with ASIC after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to above and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with ASIC; and

  • (iii) all continuous disclosure notices given by the Company after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to above and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with ASIC (see below).

  • (i) the assets and liabilities, financial position and performance, profits and losses and prospects of the Company; and

  • (ii) the rights and liabilities attaching to the securities the subject of this Prospectus; and
