The SPP provides the opportunity for eligible shareholders to subscribe for up to $30,000 worth of new shares, at a price of $0.016 per share. The offer is being undertaken at the same price as the July 2020 placement to institutional, professional and sophisticated investors.

Participation in the SPP is optional, and shareholders will be eligible to participate in the SPP if they were a registered holder of Gateway shares at 7:00 pm (AEST) on Monday 13 July 2020, with a registered address in Australia or New Zealand.
Depending on applications received, the Company may, at its absolute discretion, undertake a scale-back and close the SPP earlier than the Closing Date.
The Company is seeking shareholder approval to issue shares under the SPP at a general meeting ( Meeting ) pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1 ( Shareholder Approval ). The Company has despatched a Notice of Meeting to Shareholders seeking the Shareholder Approval.

The Company reserves its right to place any shortfall from the SPP, at the absolute discretion of the Directors, based on the circumstances at the time.
